Objective: As COVID-19 restrictions are eased, there has been a lively debate on whether residency recruitment interviews should be held virtually or in-person. However, environmental impact has rarely been a focus of this debate and only by inference from limited survey data. In this study, we aimed to estimate the carbon emissions generated from air-travel versus in-person interviews in the general surgery residency recruitment.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Pericardial fluid (PF) contains cells, proteins, and inflammatory mediators, such as cytokines, chemokines, growth factors, and matrix metalloproteinases. To date, we lack an adequate understanding of the inflammatory response that acute injury elicits in the pericardial space.
Objective: To characterize the inflammatory profile in the pericardial space acutely after ischemia/reperfusion.
Article Synopsis
- - Dermatologists often encounter patients with inflammatory skin conditions and related psychological issues, but many lack formal training to address these concerns holistically.
- - Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), a psychiatric condition that leads to excessive worry about minor or nonexistent flaws in appearance, is prevalent among dermatology patients, particularly those with chronic skin conditions like acne.
- - Adolescents are especially at risk for BDD due to high rates of acne and the influence of social media, which can amplify body image dissatisfaction; therefore, dermatologists should use screening tools and collaborate with mental health professionals for optimal patient care.
Objective: To determine the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of early cold stored platelet transfusion compared with standard care resuscitation in patients with hemorrhagic shock.
Background: Data demonstrating the safety and efficacy of early cold stored platelet transfusion are lacking following severe injury.
Methods: A phase 2, multicenter, randomized, open label, clinical trial was performed at 5 US trauma centers.
