Suicide rates among patients with cancer in the US are significantly higher than those of general population. To our knowledge, large cohort studies examining suicide head and neck have not been performed.To identify incidence rate, trends, risk factors neck.This was a retrospective study geographic areas served by Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results (SEER) program. In total, 350,413 cases were recorded within SEER registry between 1973 2011. Data analyses performed 2014. Incidence data...
Radiation therapy has increasingly been used in the management of pelvic malignancies. However, use radiation continues to pose a risk secondary malignancy its recipients. This study investigates development following for primary A retrospective cohort review Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results database from 1975 2016 was performed. Primary malignancies were subdivided based on receipt radiation, stratified as or nonpelvic investigate local effect radiation. total 2 102 192 patients...
Objective To compare the use of porous polyethylene implants versus autologous reconstruction for ear in patients with microtia or anotia. Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Hospitals included American College Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Project—Pediatrics, between 2016 and 2022. Patients Children diagnoses Interventions Ear utilizing either a porous-polyethylene implant reconstruction. Main Outcome Measures Rates wound complication, hospital readmission,...
Background: Contemporary risk calculators underestimate coronary artery disease (CAD) in women. Breast arterial calcification (BAC) associates with CAD. Low breast density (BD) (greater adipose tissue) cardiometabolic disease. Both are readily identifiable on screening mammography. We sought to evaluate the association between combined features of BD, BAC, and Methods: retrospectively studied women clinically indicated mammography contemporaneous computed tomography angiography. CAD was...
Facial feminization surgery (FFS) has been associated with improving gender dysphoria in transgender patients. This study aimed to quantify the impact of on patient facial satisfaction, using FACE-Q and a quality-of-life (QoL) survey.
Abstract Background Breast arterial calcification (BAC) on mammography has been shown to associate with cardiovascular disease, however the association heart failure (HF) remains largely uncharacterised. BAC is a medial process, which marker of vascular stiffness, key contributor diastolic dysfunction (DD) and HFpEF. We sought evaluate between Purpose This study aims assess relationship status Methods retrospective cross-sectional included 100 consecutive patients clinically indicated...
Abstract Background Dysfunctional adipose tissue is strongly linked to cardiometabolic disease. Epicardial (EAT) which measurable on cardiac computed tomography (CT) well correlated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), however it not reported clinically. Breast mammography mandates reporting of breast density (BD), also a marker quantity less dense breasts indicating greater volume. Given the widespread use screening mammography, this presents an opportunity employ BD as possible surrogate for...
Abstract Background Coronary artery disease (CAD) risk is underestimated in women using current stratification tools. The mammographic finding of breast arterial calcification (BAC) associates with CAD. Furthermore, adipose tissue, measured through density (BD) on mammography (low indicates high adiposity) has shown potential to act as a pro-inflammatory, pro-atherogenic fat deposit. Given its uptake screening programs, may therefore represent novel tool for cardiovascular women. Purpose To...
Abstract Background Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus more likely exhibit obesity. Pathophysiologically, obesity promotes a range of metabolic disturbances including insulin resistance, dyslipidemia and hypertension, in addition to the secretion adipokines pro-inflammatory cytokines from excessive fat accumulation. These atherogenic features may promote instability atherosclerotic plaques, which ultimately result elevating risk cardiovascular disease. However, it remains be fully...
A mandible fracture is a common traumatic craniofacial injury for which surgery sometimes indicated.

The current work identified 90-day opioid prescribing patterns following surgically treated fractures. Patients who underwent open reduction internal fixation to treat closed between 2011 2021 were in the PearlDiver Mariner165 database. Exclusion criteria...
