Preoperative embolization of a solitary bone plasmacytoma of the proximal humerus.

Solitary plasmacytoma of bone (SPB) is a rare plasma cell malignancy that most often presents with localized pain. This case describes a 70-year-old female with a pathologic humeral fracture due to a large, hypervascular SPB. The tumor was assumed to be a metastatic lesion, and preoperative embolization was performed to minimize intraoperative blood loss, followed by tumor debulking and total shoulder arthroplasty.

Diagnosis and management of radiation cholecystitis as a complication of Y90 radioembolization for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Radiation induced cholecystitis is a known but rare complication of Yttrium90 (Y90) radioembolization of hepatic tumors due to nontarget embolization. Many documented cases of radiation induced cholecystitis have been treated with cholecystectomy, which is significant given the typical patient population undergoing radioembolization tends to be of higher surgical risk. Here, we present a case of a 68 year old male who developed radiation induced cholecystitis status post hepatic radioembolization that resolved with conservative management alone.

Dynamics of daily positive and negative affect and relations to anxiety and depression symptoms in a transdiagnostic clinical sample.

Background: Despite interest in transdiagnostic dimensional approaches to psychopathology, little is known about the dynamic interplay of affecting and internalizing symptoms that cut across diverse mental health disorders. We examined within-person reciprocal effects of negative and positive affect (NA, PA) and symptoms (depression and anxiety), and their between-person associations with affective dynamics (i.e.

Dynamics of parental criticism and emerging adult emotional functioning: Associations with depression.

Perceived parental criticism is an important measure of the family emotional environment, linked to a variety of psychological difficulties in emerging adults (EAs) and traditionally assessed at a single timepoint. Our study is the first to examine perceived parental criticism as a dynamic construct that fluctuates and interacts with emerging adult (EA) affect across daily life. EAs ( = 141; ages 18-22; = 19.
