To evaluate safety and efficacy of distal right radial access (DRRA) compared to (RRA), for coronary procedures, in patients with smaller diameter arteries (SDRA) (radial artery (RAD) < 2.1 mm).This is a retrospective analysis DRRA Vs. RRA undergoing procedures at our cardiac catheterization laboratories over 10- month period between September 2017 June, 2018 (first 5 calendar months RRA-first; next DRRA-first). All underwent pre-procedure ultrasound arm arteries. had RAD<2.1 mm (mean RAD...
Sulfur mustard or gas (HD) and its monofunctional analog, 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES), “half-mustard gas,” are alkylating agents that induce DNA damage, oxidative stress, inflammation. HD/CEES rapidly absorbed in the skin causing extensive injury. We hypothesize antioxidant liposomes deliver both water-soluble lipid-soluble antioxidants protect cells from immediate CEES-induced damage via attenuating stress. Liposomes containing and/or were evaluated using vitro model systems....
Polypharmacy, the concurrent use of multiple medications, is prevalent among older adults and associated with increased risks for adverse drug events including falls. Deprescribing, systematic process discontinuing potentially inappropriate aims to mitigate these risks. However, practical application deprescribing criteria in emergency settings remains limited due time constraints complexity. This study evaluate performance a large language model (LLM)-based pipeline identifying...
Osteomyelitis is commonly caused by Staphylococci , Streptococci Escherichia coli and anaerobes. There have been cases of rare organisms like Klebsiella pneumoniae ( Kp ) being initially overlooked as causes osteomyelitis. We report a case an elderly cirrhotic adult male transferred for further management liver failure, who was subsequently diagnosed with osteomyelitis sepsis. He had history blunt leg trauma, MRI the revealed osteomyelitis, negative workup other sources infection. reported...
The correlation between hyperamylasemia and acute pancreatitis was discovered in 1929, yet another test, lipase, shown to provide better diagnostic performance the late 1980s early 1990s. Subsequent studies demonstrated co-ordering amylase with lipase did not additional benefit, only added cost. We sought investigate impact of advocating for obsolescence on its clinical demand. reviewed 1.3 million reportable results over 14 years (2009–2022). trend utilization this period declined by 66%...

Background: Extreme glucose values in critically ill patients have been studied and shown to be predictors of mortality. In addition, fluctuation is also proposed a determinant poor outcome. our study, we attempt understand whether there relation between the fluctuations their Methods: Data was obtained from "Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III" database 2001 2012. Fluctuation measured as coefficient variance (CVG). Patients were split into four groups based on CVG levels during...
Downhill varices are a rare cause of acute upper gastrointestinal bleed and generally result superior vena cava (SVC) obstruction. Here, we present case young man who presented multiple times with bleeding esophageal varices. A 56 year old hypertension, diabetes mellitus, rheumatoid arthritis, end stage renal disease on intermittent hemodialysis (HD), had first to our hospital in 2015 complaint hematemesis. An endoscopy done at that time showed for which he underwent band ligation. However,...
