Background: Invidious discrimination is unreasonable and unethical. When directed against patients, such violates the respect for persons at heart of bioethics. Might also be times toward physicians themselves? Studies workplace have largely focused on race gender, with few examining whether religious identity attracts discrimination. Muslim from diverse backgrounds comprise 5% U.S. physician workforce and, given sociopolitical climate, may face anti-Muslim in workplace. We assessed...
To develop long-term strategies for transportation planning, it is necessary to understand and address the uncertainties related mobility. This task challenging, given rapid evolution of passenger in U.S.A. aid we combine expert insights quantitative modeling a two-step process create scenarios U.S. 2030. In first part, use inputs from 34 experts on 18 socio-demographic, macro-economic, technological factors that influence generate combinations projections are reasonable coherent: call them...
Ultrasound (US) changes within the Achilles tendon are present in asymptomatic individuals. We assessed association of US signs with symptoms tendinopathy a study group club level running athletes and control training at least 2 times per week. The was its entirety on longitudinal scans, musculotendinous junction (MTJ), calcaneal insertion site, midtendon point. 25 middle distance runners, 19 males 6 females, aged from 18 to 58, were enrolled each group. When compared athletes, runners...
Abstract Aim To examine the associations between American Muslim physicians' characteristics and intended behaviours towards resuscitation of 22‐ 23‐week gestation infants. Methods This national survey physician members Islamic Medical Association North America inquired about religiosity, their practice referring to resources for bioethical guidance, preferred model patient–doctor decision‐making perceived importance quality‐of‐life determinations with respect medical decision‐making. Four...
Laboratory cadaver dissection is essential for three‐dimensional understanding of anatomical structures and variability, but there are many challenges to teaching gross anatomy in medical dental schools, including a lack available space qualified faculty. The aim this study was determine the efficacy high‐definition audiovisual educational technology laboratory improving students’ learning outcomes satisfaction. Exam scores were compared two classes first‐year students at one U.S. school:...
Volar locking plates are used to treat unstable and displaced fractures of the distal radius. Potential advantages stable anatomical reduction (eg early mobilisation) can be limited by penetration dorsal screws, leading synovitis potential rupture extensor tendons. Despite intraoperative imaging, screws continues a problem in volar plating Ultrasound is well recognised, readily available, diagnostic tool assess soft-tissue impingement orthopaedic hardware. In this cadaveric study, we wished...
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a highly prevalent disorder with serious health consequences but limited therapeutic options. For subset of those OSA, key underlying mechanism hypersensitive chemoreflex control breathing. There no approved therapy that targets this endotypic trait. Here we determine whether the P2X3 receptor antagonist gefapixant, which predicted to attenuate carotid chemoreflexes, reduces OSA severity in patients chemoreflex-dependent OSA.
Abstract Rationale Previous research suggests that sleep polysomnography and EEG endpoints can be used to assess GABAergic activity; however, the impact of GABA B receptor positive allosteric modulators on remains unclear. Objectives This phase 1 study compared a single dose ASP8062 (35 mg or 70 mg), modulator, with placebo paroxetine (40 mg). Methods Healthy adult volunteers were randomized four treatments ASP8062, 40 mg, matching placebo), each separated by 14-day washout. Primary obtained...
Few clinical studies have assessed real-world abrupt transitioning between insomnia medications. This study strategies for directly patients from zolpidem tartrate (ZOL) immediate/extended release to the dual orexin receptor antagonist, lemborexant (LEM).
Purpose . The aim of the study was to locate infraorbital foramen (IOF) in relation margin (IOM) for proper injections local anesthetics skull specimens. Another determine depth needle penetration into pterygopalatine fossa through greater palatine canal (GPC). Materials and Methods 102 halves were used measure distances between (1) IOF IOM (2) alveolar ridge maxilla at second premolar. Needles inserted bent a 45° angle, passing GPC level hard palate. tip emerging out measured. Results mean...
Primary non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) of the skull is extremely rare. The authors report a case in 19-year-old boy who presented with progressively increasing scalp mass on background generalized headache 6-months duration. Imaging showed multifocal vault lesion intra- and extra-cranial soft tissue masses, causing permeative destruction underlying bone. Further investigation failed to identify any other evidence systemic lymphoma. Histopathology examination superficial low grade B cell precise...
Purpose This study aims to estimate Pakistan’s export potential in new and existing products, as well their destination markets. Design/methodology/approach uses a nonparametric approach based on demand, supply easiness factors for estimating at disaggregated product levels. Findings A significant number of products (extensive margin) (intensive are identified that have potential. The estimated unrealized extensive margins is $2bn intensive $5bn. range included value-added semifinished...
The skull encompasses and houses one of the most important organs in body-the brain-and like all tissues body, it is comprised living cells that are constantly remodeling as this maintains strength homeostasis bone. In present study, abnormal bone growth patterns were observed possible causes said findings investigated multiple cadaver skulls dissected during head neck anatomy courses at Detroit Mercy Dental over past year. There many factors, both intrinsic extrinsic, with differences...
Background: Traditional methods for administering and scoring gross anatomy practical laboratory examinations are time resource-intensive can be susceptible to errors in grading. Alternative approaches, such as audience response systems (e.g., clickers) computerized scoring, appear hold promise improve the examination experience students efficiency accuracy of Method: To assess perceptions using systems, two cohorts who completed clicker technology at University Detroit Mercy School...
Abstract Background: A mandatory preclinical suture laboratory was implemented as part of the Oral Surgery course where students were trained and allowed to practice various suturing techniques on cadavers under direct supervision an oral surgeon. The primary purpose this study evaluate students’ perception effectiveness lab experience in preparing them for performing sutures during their surgery rotations. Methods: second year dental 2014/2015 participated a lab. Suturing demonstrated by...
Abstract Objectives The objectives of this study were primarily to assess the efficacy and safety SM‐1 in a circadian challenge model transient insomnia secondarily, contribution diphenhydramine combination. Methods Randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled three‐way cross‐over with 5‐hr phase advance. Subjects 39 healthy adults reporting history insomnia. All treatments (SM‐1, without diphenhydramine, or placebo) administered all subjects randomly assigned sequence, at least 1 week...
Aim: Certain individuals are more prone to dental caries than others are. Caries risk may be related in the secretion of certain defensive salivary proteins including secretory IgA (sIgA) and proline-rich acidic protein (PRAP-1). In this study, we investigated relationship between PRAP-1 sIgA leading susceptibility development adults explored differences levels men women. Materials Methods: Unstimulated saliva samples were collected from 28 patients with high 32 control subjects low...
