Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an insult to the from external mechanical force that may lead short or long-term impairment. has been reported in up 83% of craniofacial fractures involving frontal sinus. However, risk factors for TBI at presentation and persistent neurological sequelae patients with sinus remain largely unstudied. The authors aim evaluate prevalence associated on these patients. retrospectively reviewed who presented traumatic 2019. authors’ primary outcome was concomitant...
Objective To assess the long-term outcomes of sigmoid sinus wall reconstruction (SSWR) in patients with pulsatile tinnitus (PT) anomalies (SSWAs). Study Design Single-center retrospective review. Setting Tertiary referral center. Patients who underwent SSWR for PT SSWAs more than 5 years prior to study initiation. Intervention(s) Therapeutic—all anomalies. Main Outcome Measure(s) The primary were complete or partial resolution lasting at least postoperatively and short-term relief from after...
Objective Occupational therapy is often prescribed after the acute treatment of upper extremity fractures. However, high out-of-pocket expenses and logistical constraints can reduce access to formal services. We aimed quantify preferences patients with fracture for attending occupational therapy, when considering possible differences in clinical outcomes. Design Discrete choice experiment. Setting Level 1 trauma centre Baltimore, Maryland, USA. Participants 134 adult Primary outcome measures...
Study Design Case series. Objective This retrospective review of frontal sinus fractures aims to describe our current experience managing these at an urban level I trauma center. Methods An institutional database 2081 patients who presented with maxillofacial on computed tomography face/sinus in 2019 was queried for all traumatic fractures. Demographics, trauma-related history, management approach, and follow-up data were collected analyzed. Results Sixty-three (7.3%) had least one fracture...
Alternative splicing of exon24 (E24) myosin phosphatase targeting subunit 1 (Mypt1) by setting sensitivity to nitric oxide (NO)/cGMP-mediated relaxation is a key determinant smooth muscle function. Here we defined expression (MP) subunits and isoforms creation new genetic mouse models, assay human tissues, query public databases. A
Purpose: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an insult to the from external mechanical force that may lead short or long-term impairment. TBI has been reported in up 83% of craniofacial fractures involving frontal sinus. However, risk factors for at presentation and persistent neurologic sequelae patients with sinus remain largely unstudied. We aim evaluate prevalence associated on these patients. Methods: retrospectively reviewed who presented traumatic 2019. Our primary outcome was concomitant...
Abstract Objective We evaluate the safety of outpatient parotidectomy. factors that lead to planned admission and compare costs. trends toward outpatient, outcomes switching status, total versus superficial approach, ambulatory hospital site. Study Design Retrospective cohort study. Setting Single tertiary academic center. Methods review patients who underwent parotidectomy for benign tumors from 2018 2023. Results Of 370 parotidectomies performed, there were a 162 admissions 208 procedures....
Abstract Background Smoking increases the risk of complications and related costs after an orthopaedic fracture. Research in other populations suggests that a one-time payment may incentivize smoking cessation. However, little is known on fracture patients’ willingness to accept financial incentives stop smoking; level incentive required motivate cessation this population. This study aimed estimate threshold patients injury. Methods cross-sectional utilized discrete choice experiment (DCE)...
Objectives We sought to study the incidence of patient‐initiated communication after parotidectomy, identify patient and surgical factors associated with communication, evaluate trends possible areas for improvement. Methods A retrospective cohort patients who underwent parotidectomy without combined procedures from 2018 2022 in a single tertiary‐care institution was performed. reviewed all communications documented within electronic medical record 30 days discharge. categorized as requiring...
