Impact of a Reading Room Coordinator on Efficiency of On-Call Radiology Residents.

Objectives: Few level I trauma, tertiary care, academic centers have a paid, permanent reading room coordinator (RRC) to facilitate image management services during off-hour calls, to minimize interruptions to reading workflow. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of an RRC on the efficiency of radiology residents signing preliminary reports for emergency department (ED) and inpatient studies.

Methods: A pre- and postintervention retrospective review was performed, using carestream PACS to retrieve imaging studies read on call during two time periods-July 1 to December 1, 2019 (pre-RRC), and July 1 to December 1, 2021 (post-RRC).

Utility of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosing eosinophilic myocarditis in a patient recently recovered from COVID-19: a grand round case report.

Background: Eosinophilic myocarditis (EM) secondary to eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare disease, for which cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) is a useful non-invasive modality for diagnosis. We present a case of EM in a patient who recently recovered from COVID-19 and discuss the role of CMRI and endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) to differentiate between COVID-19-associated myocarditis and EM.

Case Summary: A 20-year-old Hispanic male with a history of sinusitis and asthma, and who recently recovered from COVID-19, presented to the emergency room with pleuritic chest pain, dyspnoea on exertion, and cough.

Electroretinogram abnormalities in FKRP-related limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMDR9).

Background: Dystroglycanopathies are a heterogeneous group of membrane-related muscular dystrophies. The dystroglycanopathy phenotype includes a spectrum of severity ranging from severe congenital muscular dystrophy to adult-onset limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD). LGMDR9 is a dystroglycanopathy caused by mutations in the FKRP gene.

Influential Factors in the Recovery Process of Burn Survivors in a Predominately Rural State: A Qualitative Study.

Navigating the recovery journey following a burn injury can be challenging. Survivor stories can help define recovery constructs that can be incorporated into support programs. We undertook this study to determine themes of recovery in a predominately rural state.

"More than Scabs and Stitches": An Interview Study of Burn Survivors' Perspectives on Treatment and Recovery.

Sustaining a burn injury often results in a life-long recovery process. Survivors are impacted by changes in their mobility, appearance, and ability to carry out activities of daily living. In this study, we examined survivors' accounts of their treatment and recovery in order to identify specific factors that have had significant impacts on their well-being.

Nanophthalmos patient with a THR518MET mutation in MYRF, a case report.

Background: Nanophthalmos has a significant genetic background and disease-causing mutations have been recently been reported in the myelin regulatory factor (MYRF) gene. We report clinical features in a patient with nanophthalmos and a Thr518Met MYRF mutation.

Case Presentation: A three-year-old male was discovered to have nanophthalmos after first presenting to the emergency department for a frontal headache, eye pain, emesis, and lethargy.
