Rationale: Current guidelines recommend patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pneumonia receive empirical antibiotics for suspected bacterial superinfection on the basis of weak evidence. Rates ventilator-associated (VAP) in clinical trials SARS-CoV-2 are unexpectedly low. Objectives: We conducted an observational single-center study to determine prevalence and etiology at time initial intubation incidence subsequent VAP pneumonia. Methods: Bronchoscopic...
Background Renovascular hypertension ( RVH ) impairs cardiac structure and left ventricular LV function, but whether mitochondrial injury is implicated in ‐induced myocardial damage dysfunction has not been defined. We hypothesized that remodeling swine partly attributable to injury. Methods Results After 12 weeks of hypercholesterolemic HC )‐ or control (n=14 each), pigs were treated for another 4 with vehicle the mitochondrial‐targeted peptide MTP ), Bendavia (0.1 mg/kg subcutaneously, 5...
Mobile device applications (apps) may enhance live CME courses. We aimed to (1) validate a measure of participant attitudes toward using conference app and (2) determine associations between characteristics apps with usage.We conducted cross-sectional validation study participants at the Mayo Clinic Selected Topics in Internal Medicine Course. A was developed that included presentation slides, note-taking features, search functions, social networking other attendees, access presenter...
Abstract Introduction Excessive Daytime Sleepiness (EDS) is common poststroke, significantly impacting rehabilitation participation and quality of life. Early detection EDS through prolonged daily sleep wake monitoring crucial for prompt intervention improved care. Actigraphy a promising technique that circumvents the high cost low portability extended polysomnography limited reliability self-reporting. While actigraphy often used in healthy adults, its application to daytime measurement...
Abstract Introduction Sleep apnea affects over half of stroke survivors, impacting post-stroke recovery and outcomes. Early intervention through continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) can reduce the impact sleep apnea, motivating need for accurate screening tools. Current tools such as home tests (HSATs) are difficult to use uncomfortable due bulky acquisition systems, electrodes, straps, and/or nasal cannulas, whereas questionnaires (i.e., STOP, STOP-BANG, Berlin OSA) suffer from lack...
Comprehensive information about current thyroid carcinoma treatment options depending on its histology and extent of the disease, focusing locally advanced findings at limit operability. Treatment such a heterogeneous group requires interdisciplinary cooperation. We provide 6 unique case reports including imaging scans, description therapy development condition.
