Effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on colorectal cancer screening in two university-affiliated health care systems.
PLoS One
January 2025
Center for Health Services Research, Regenstrief Institute Inc, Indianapolis, IN, United States of America.
Objectives: In two large university affiliated healthcare systems, we examined trends in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening both prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic to compare the trends in non-invasive screening tests and colonoscopy.
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective time-trend analysis, we obtained the numbers of colonoscopies and non-invasive tests performed monthly during the pandemic and the year prior to it. We obtained colonoscopy data from five endoscopy units with the indication determined by dual independent review.
A review of literature of a functional, congenital intrathoracic kidney.

Introduction: The rarest form of renal ectopia, the thoracic kidney, has been documented in only about 200 cases worldwide. There are four recognized causes of congenital thoracic renal ectopia: renal ectopia with an intact diaphragm, diaphragmatic eventration, diaphragmatic hernia, and traumatic diaphragmatic rupture. This condition often presents as an incidental finding in asymptomatic patients.

Article Synopsis
- Prenatal exome sequencing (ES) successfully identified both fetal and maternal genetic diagnoses, revealing a shared pathogenic gamma globin variant in a fetus with unexplained anemia and a mother with sickle cell disease (SCD).
- The identified variant, HbF Mission Bay HBG2, is linked to various blood-related conditions, including cyanosis and hemolytic anemia, which generally emerge in infancy but can persist into adulthood.
- In this case, the mother's own symptoms from the variant, such as recurrent hypoxia and methemoglobinemia during pregnancy, occurred alongside the fetus's need for multiple blood transfusions and post-birth methemoglobinemia.
Anti-Collapsin Response Mediator Protein 5(CV2/CRMP5) and Anti-Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase (GAD) Antibodies-Mediated Encephalopathy Mimicking Atypical Parkinsonism.

Department of Biomedicine, Neuroscience and Advanced Diagnostics (BiND), University of Palermo, 90127 Palermo, Italy.
: Paraneoplastic neurological syndromes (PNSs) are rare conditions characterized by immune-mediated pathogenesis, frequently associated with the presence of a neoplasm. Although a single antineuronal antibody mediates a specific syndrome, atypical manifestations mediated by the same antibody have been described. : The aim of this study was to report on an atypical case of PNS with dual positivity for anti-GAD65 and anti-CRMP5/CV2 antibodies, simultaneously characterized by cognitive decline associated with progressive ataxia and parkinsonism.

Perfusion
December 2024
Department of Cardiac Surgery, University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, MI, USA.
Sternotomy is rarely performed for veterinary therapeutic or recovery models in quadrupeds because of difficulties with breathing, ambulation, and pain control. Central cannulation for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is infrequent and typically performed through full thoracotomies. Experienced clinical surgeons and perfusionists should provide guidance for new therapeutic interventions and translational research.
