Ovarian cancer is the second most common gynecological and leading cause of death in United States. In this article we review diagnosis current management epithelial ovarian which accounts for over 95 percent malignancies. We will present various theories about potential origin discuss genetic anomalies syndromes that may cancers with emphasis on Breast type 1/2 mutations. The pathology pathogenesis carcinoma also be presented. Lastly, provide a comprehensive overview treatment strategies...
Background:Performing laparoscopic procedures requires special training and has been documented as a significant source of surgical errors. "Warming up" before performing task shown to enhance performance. This study investigates whether surgeons benefit from "warming using select video games immediately partial tasks clinical tasks.Methods:This included 303 (249 men 54 women). Participants were split into control (n=180) an experimental group (n=123). The played 3 previously validated for 6...
BACKGROUND Although several studies have been conducted to examine the role of p53 genetic abnormalities and their prognostic value in colorectal carcinoma, incidence nuclear accumulation importance African-American white patients not investigated separately. Therefore, authors evaluated significance these two racial groups. METHODS Nuclear was immunohistochemically archival tissue specimens from 204 300 with primary adenocarcinomas who had undergone surgery. Survival times adenocarcinoma...
This study was to extrapolate potential roles of augmented reality goggles as a clinical support tool assisting in the reduction preventable causes death on battlefield. Our pilot designed improve medic performance accurately placing large bore catheter release tension pneumothorax (prehospital setting) while using goggles. Thirty-four preclinical medical students recruited from Morehouse School Medicine performed needle decompressions human cadaver models after hearing brief training...
: Background: Firearm-related injury is a crisis that afflicts vulnerable populations of all ages, ethnicities, races and gender. The purpose this white paper to delineate the impact firearm-related violence on health well-being citizens communities across Georgia based available literature data. aim examine characterize currently data firearm from statewide perspective, principally as it relates National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) report for Georgia.
Class II invariant chain peptide (CLIP) expression has been demonstrated to play a pivotal role in the regulation of B cell function after nonspecific polyclonal expansion. Several studies have shown vitamin D3 helps regulate immune response. We hypothesized that activated suppresses CLIP on B-cells activation or priming C57BL/6 mice with CpG. This study showed actively reduced and decreased number CLIP(+) B-lymphocytes dose formulation dependent fashion. Flow cytometry was used analyze...
Background: Violence related injuries (VRIs) are a major public health problem in the United States (US). According to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), homicide is 11th leading cause of death US third among persons aged 15-24 years old. Among African Americans 10-34, fifth those 35-44 One form that can result injury resulting firearm violence. The objective this study assess rates VRIs American males who have been admitted Level I trauma center serving metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia.
Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health problem and leading cause of death disability in the United States.Management patients with TBI has changed very little over last 20 years.Case Series: A case series three severe TBIs who were aggressively treated vitamin D3, progesterone, omega 3fatty acids, enteral glutamine for six weeks, termed neuroceutical augmentation traumatic (NATBI), favorable outcomes.Conclusion: large clinical study trial using these four...
Introduction. Klebsiella pneumoniae is a well-known cause of liver abscess. Higher rates abscess associated with are seen in Taiwan. Metastatic endophthalmitis common complication poor prognosis despite aggressive therapy. Case Report. We report case 67-year-old Korean female The patient developed metastatic and ultimately succumbed to her disease medical surgical treatment. Conclusion. Dissemination significant morbidity mortality. Liver abscesses preferably should be treated percutaneous...
Introduction: Although national guidelines have been published for the management of critically injured traumatic cardiopulmonary arrest (TCPA) patients, many hospital systems not implemented in-hospital triage guidelines. The objective this study was to determine if resources could be preserved by implementation an tiered system patients in TCPA with prolonged resuscitation who would likely declared dead on arrival (DOA).Method: We conducted a retrospective analysis 4,618 severely admitted...
Hemothorax is a common occurrence after blunt or penetrating injury to the chest. Posterior intercostal vessel hemorrhage as cause of major intrathoracic bleeding an infrequent source massive bleeding. Selective angiography with trans-catheter embolization may provide minimally invasive and efficient method controlling refractory surgical treatment. A 19 year-old male sustained gunshot wound his left chest hemothorax hemorrhage. He was emergently taken operating room for thoracotomy found...
A recent article by Dr. Haider et al1, “Association between Hospitals Caring for a Disproportionately High Percentage of Minority Trauma Patients and Increased Mortality: Nationwide Analysis 434 Hospitals,” raised the question whether there was an increased mortality risk among trauma patients treated at hospitals with higher proportions minority (i.e., black Hispanic combined). They categorized included in National Data Bank 2007 2008 on basis percentage admitted due to acute traumatic...
Introduction: Physicians who care for trauma patients should be aware of the possibility a pulmonary embolism presenting immediately after traumatic injury.Case Report: We report case 30yearold female restrained driver developed within two hours motor vehicle accident.Conclusion: conclude that can produce hypercoagulable state occur event and result in embolism.
Blunt injuries to the innominate artery in civilian setting are relatively rare. The majority of patients who sustain this injury will die at scene. Those that survive transport hospital present difficult challenges for trauma surgeons with mortality rates range from 10 25 per cent. proximal is more commonly injured by blunt mechanisms. On other hand, penetrating involves distal artery. A 23-year-old male presented our service after a motor vehicle collision. He was an unrestrained...
