Successful Orbital Atherectomy of Left Main Bifurcation Lesion Using Microcatheter Protection of Nonatherectomy Wire.

-Optimal PCI may be challenging with calcified left main bifurcation lesions-Orbital atherectomy is a common strategy for lesion optimization-Side branch occlusion is a feared complication of orbital atherectomy-Utilizing microcatheter wire protection can minimize occlusion risk with orbital atherectomy.

Passive antipyretic therapy is not as effective as invasive hypothermia for maintaining normothermia after cardiac arrest.

Aim Of The Study: Targeted temperature management is a class I indication in comatose patients after a cardiac arrest. While the literature has primarily focused on innovative methods to achieve target temperatures, pharmacologic therapy has received little attention. We sought to examine whether pharmacologic therapy using antipyretics is effective in maintaining normothermia in post cardiac arrest patients.

Predicting in-hospital mortality after an in-hospital cardiac arrest: A multivariate analysis.

Aim Of The Study: Most survivors of an in-hospital cardiac arrest do not leave the hospital alive, and there is a need for a more patient-centered, holistic approach to the assessment of prognosis after an arrest. We sought to identify pre-, peri-, and post-arrest variables associated with in-hospital mortality amongst survivors of an in-hospital cardiac arrest.

Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients ≥18 years of age who were resuscitated from an in-hospital arrest at our University Medical Center from January 1, 2013 to September 31, 2016.

Defining the volume of consultations for musculoskeletal infection encountered by pediatric orthopaedic services in the United States.

Objective: Adequate resources are required to rapidly diagnose and treat pediatric musculoskeletal infection (MSKI). The workload MSKI consults contribute to pediatric orthopaedic services is unknown as prior epidemiologic studies are variable and negative work-ups are not included in national discharge databases. The hypothesis was tested that MSKI consults constitute a substantial volume of total consultations for pediatric orthopaedic services across the United States.

Primary Care Women's Health Screening: A Case Study of a Community Engaged Human Centered Design Approach to Enhancing the Screening Process.

Purpose: To apply a Human Centered Design (HCD) approach to co-designing a comprehensive women's health screening tool with community partners.

Description: Evidenced-based health screenings for behaviors and risks are important tools in primary health care and disease prevention, especially for women. However, numerous barriers limit the effective implementation of comprehensive health screenings, and often lead to excluding important risks such as intimate partner violence (IPV).

MACULA RETINAL VASCULITIS AND CHOROIDITIS ASSOCIATED WITH GRANULOMATOSIS WITH POLYANGIITIS.

Purpose: To report a case series of two cases of granulomatosis with polyangiitis, previously known as Wegener granulomatosis, which developed macular necrosis, not previously associated with granulomatosis with polyangiitis, healed with fibrosis, despite aggressive immune-modulating therapy and good control of systemic disease.

Methods: Case series of two cases with observation of treatment progress.

Results: The results reported the progress of response to treatment in the two cases, which resulted in the final outcome of fibrosis in the macula region, despite being on aggressive immune-modulating therapy and good systemic control.

Lupus coagulopathy post-tasing: a case study.

While severe adverse effects are rare, evidence suggests significant physiological effects may be associated with the use of electrical incapacitation devices, or TASERs. In this case, a 28 year old Caucasian female with chronic, stable systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was voluntarily tased in a work-related training procedure. Days later, she presented to the emergency room with an acute flare of her lupus and a constellation of symptoms that lead to new diagnoses of antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), Raynaud phenomenon, acute lower left extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and diffuse bilateral pulmonary emboli (PEs).

Development and characterization of elastic nanocomposites for craniofacial contraction osteogenesis.

Development of resorbable elastic composites as an alternative means to apply contractive forces for manipulating craniofacial bones is described herein. Composites made from the biodegradable elastomer, poly (1,8-octanediol co-citric acid) (POC), and hydroxyapatite (nHA) with a 200 nm diameter (0-20% loadings) were created to develop a material capable of applying continuous contractive forces. The composites were evaluated for variation in their mechanical properties, rate of degradation, and interaction of the hydroxyapatite nanoparticles with the polymer chains.

Mechanical tissue resuscitation protects against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Background And Aim: Reperfusion injury is a complex inflammatory response involving numerous mechanisms and pathways. Mechanical tissue resuscitation is a newly described therapeutic strategy that reduces reperfusion injury. This study further investigates potential mechanisms for the protective effects of mechanical tissue resuscitation while utilizing a bio-absorbable matrix.

Reliability of magnetic resonance imaging for the detection of hypopituitarism in children with optic nerve hypoplasia.

Purpose: It is essential to identify hypopituitarism in children with optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) because they are at risk for developmental delay, seizures, or death. The purpose of this study is to determine the reliability of neurohypophyseal abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection of hypopituitarism in children with ONH.

Design: Cross-sectional study.

Collagen unfolding accelerates water influx, determining hydration in the interstitial matrix.

In the interstitial matrix, collagen unfolding at physiologic temperatures is thought to facilitate interactions with enzymes and scaffold molecules during inflammation, tissue remodeling, and wound healing. We tested the hypothesis that it also plays a role in modulating flows and matrix hydration potential. After progressively unfolding dermal collagen in situ, we measured the hydration parameters by osmotic stress techniques and modeled them as linear functions of unfolded collagen, quantified by differential scanning calorimetry after timed heat treatment.

Cavernous sinus syndrome from an internal carotid artery aneurysm in an infant with tuberous sclerosis.

Aneurysms are associated with tuberous sclerosis complex. We describe the first case of cavernous sinus syndrome from an intracavernous internal carotid artery aneurysm in a 9-month-old boy with tuberous sclerosis. The presence of an intracranial aneurysm should be considered in the differential diagnosis of children with tuberous sclerosis who develop cranial nerve deficits.

Long-term visual acuity and initial postoperative refractive error in pediatric pseudophakia.

Objective: To examine the long-term best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in children who, during the amblyogenic period, underwent cataract extraction with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and to see if initial postoperative refractive error following cataract extraction correlates with long-term BCVA.

Design: Retrospective chart review.

Participants: Thirty-six eyes of 26 patients were included in the study.
