Oil/water separations have become an area of great interest, as growing oil extraction activities are increasing the generation oily wastewaters well risk spills. Here, we demonstrate a membrane-based and fouling-free oil/water separation method that couples carbon nanotube-poly(vinyl alcohol) underwater superoleophobic ultrafiltration membranes with magnetic Pickering emulsions. We this process is insensitive to low water temperatures, high ionic strength, or crude loading, while allowing...

Anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) is the rarest type of and has lowest overall survival. To authors' knowledge, impact socioeconomic status race/ethnicity not yet been described.Data regarding 719 patients diagnosed with their first primary malignant ATC from January 1, 1998 to December 31, 2011 in Surveillance, Epidemiology, End Results program registries were examined. Differences receipt thyroidectomy, radiotherapy, lymph node examination examined by race/ethnicity. Survival also was...
Background The thyroid cancer incidence rate has tripled in the United States since 1980s, especially among women and small‐sized tumors. This trend been attributed to increased detection due availability of ultrasound fine‐needle aspiration technology. In 2009, American Thyroid Association (ATA) released revisions their guidelines for well‐differentiated cancers. Objective To examine trends rates by tumor size gender following 2009 ATA guideline revisions. Methods Cases differentiated...
Trends in the training, supply, availability, career decisions, and retirement of US dermatology physicians are not well delineated. The current study evaluates whether growth workforce will keep pace with population expansion United States. A dermatologist supply model was projected to 2030 drawing on data from American Academy Dermatology, Medical Association, Bureau Labor Statistics, Association Colleges, other associations. clinically active 2015 36 per capita (1,000,000); entry...
Despite the devastating impact of mosquito-borne illnesses on human health, very little is known about mosquito developmental biology, including development visual system. Mosquitoes possess functional adult compound eyes as larvae, a trait that makes them an interesting model in which to study comparative genetics. Here, we functionally characterize system dengue and yellow fever vector Aedes aegypti, use chitosan/siRNA nanoparticles target axon guidance gene semaphorin-1a...
Botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) injections are an effective treatment for controlling hyperhidrosis at sites of amputation. Hyperesthesia associated with amputated limbs is a major barrier to performing this procedure under local anesthesia.To present novel method improving anesthesia BTX-A injections. Methods &A 29-year-old military veteran below-the-knee amputation his right leg was suffering from site hyperhidrosis, which impeding ability comfortably wear prosthesis. Prior presenting...
Osseous microvascular free tissue transfer (MFTT) is the gold standard for reconstruction most segmental mandibulectomy defects. The common osseous MFTT utilized in fibular, scapular, and osteocutaneous radial forearm (OCRF) flap. We evaluated postoperative bone union as well clinical complications following impact of various patient reconstructive characteristics, including type MFTT.Retrospective cohort study.Tertiary care academic hospital.This study examined patients who underwent...
Gender affirmation facial surgery (GAFS) is an important component in treating gender dysphoria among transgender individuals by addressing incongruence of the face.

Thirty-eight patients, 19...
Introduction: Transpatial lesions involving the masticator, infratemporal, and preparotid spaces are challenging both to access resect due their deep location, complex anatomy, multitude of important neurovascular structures they may contain. Traditionally, open approaches have been used these formidable spaces, resulting in good visualization for complete tumor resection but poor functional cosmetic outcomes patient, even with removal benign tumors. Recently, two "closed" approaches—the...
Abstract Introduction: Betel nut (BN) is a psychoactive substance that commonly used in Asian cultures, including among members of the refugee resettlement area Clarkston, GA. While association between chronic BN mastication and oral cancer has been established, these health consequences may not be appreciated by users communities. Our objective to investigate patient awareness risks assess efficacy pilot visually guided educational initiative. Methods: Patients from two clinics GA were...
Abstract Introduction: Chronic mastication of betel nut (BN), a psychoactive substance, has been associated with oral cancer. However, BN continues to be used regularly among members South and Southeast Asian cultures, including within the refugee resettlement area Clarkston, GA. Our objective is understand usage patterns in this high-risk population assess knowledge gaps that may explain disconnect. Methods: Patients from two clinics GA were approached for study. who reported familiarity...
Introduction: Vascularized free-tissue transfer reconstruction has revolutionized the surgical treatment of complex head and neck cancers managed primarily by otolaryngologist, surgeons. At times, pathologies encroach upon skull base or calvarium, requiring neurosurgical expertise in achieving total resection adequate repair exposed neural elements prior to reconstruction. Herein, we review indications, techniques, outcomes a multidisciplinary team performing free-flap cancer pathology.
