There is no consensus regarding the terminology, definition, classification, diagnostic criteria, and algorithm, or reporting standards for disease of infective native aortic aneurysm (INAA), previously known as mycotic aneurysm. The aim this study was to establish by performing a study.The Delphi methodology used. Thirty-seven international experts were invited via mail participate. Four two week rounds performed, using an online questionnaire, initially with 22 statements nine items....
This Delphi study established a consensus document on infective native aortic aneurysm regarding overall management, surgical and antimicrobial treatment, follow up routines, duration of as well defining cure the disease.This was in order to support clinicians researchers dealing with this rare disease where evidence is lacking guide detailed supplement current guidelines.
Carpometacarpal (CMC) fracture-dislocations are uncommon hand injuries, with few studies available regarding their treatment. The current operative treatment options include fixation K-wires, mini-screws, or plates, though there is no standardized approach because of varying injury patterns and complications associated each device. INnate™ threaded intramedullary nail a relatively novel option that has shown promise in metacarpal fracture by facilitating faster mobilization recovery enhanced...
Objectives: The Distal Hyperintense Vessel (DHV) sign on FLAIR imaging is a radiographic marker of inadequate blood flow due to poor collateral distal the stenotic artery. Previous studies suggest that DHV was associated with early recurrent ischemic stroke in anterior circulation secondary intracranial atherosclerotic disease (ICAD). However, its significance posterior unknown. Here, we investigate association basilar artery and outcomes at discharge patients or TIA ICAD. Methods: We...
Treatment for burn scars with associated joint contracture has been a long-studied topic few concrete, definitive answers. While preventative measures scar are often discussed, very recent papers highlight conservative treatment after formation. We present two cases of patients wound that improved in mobility and range motion serial casting. Although our were mature from musculoskeletal standpoint, first patient was able to improve her neutral ankle position by 20° progressive, fixed...
Previous results have shown the potential of acoustic-to-seismic coupling with Laser Doppler Vibrometry for detection buried landmines. An important objective present technology is to improve spatial resolution and speed measurement. In this paper, MetroLaser reports on a whole-field digital vibrometer (WDV) that measures an entire one meter area sub-centimeter in just few seconds. The WDV based dual-pulsed laser such each pulse illuminates ground, temporal separation between two pulses can...

Objective: Asymmetrical dimensions and nonlinear margins of a multilayered traumatic wound often preclude healing via primary intention. We present the case an otherwise healthy 21-year-old male who sustained trauma following boating accident. Method: The patient three lacerations to posterior thighs from boat propeller. most extensive measured 25×10×6cm muscle extrusion with divot fracture involving femur. Results: Primary closure restoration biomechanics was achieved using combination...
PURPOSE:The purpose of this study is to describe the characteristics and outcomes critically ill patients with cancer severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. METHODS:We reviewed clinical adult (> 18 yrs) active or recent history confirmed COVID-19 who developed hypoxemic insufficiency/failure radiographic opacities were consecutively admitted two intensive care units (ICU) at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center between March 16 May 27, 2020.The hospital...
Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic posed significant challenges to the instruction of in-person cadaveric dissection. Compared previous years, there was a 66% reduction in student lab dissection times for first-year medical students (MS1s) at Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center. Complete Anatomy (CA), three-dimensional (3D) anatomy atlas, provided as an additional educational resource supplement person labs. aim this study is increase engagement by producing tailored anatomical...
In March 2020, TTUHSC opened a new 20,000sf Institute of Anatomical Sciences for human gross anatomy. When the COVID-19 pandemic struck and many schools shifted from in person to online teaching, we hypothesized that if safety measures were used, cadaveric anatomy could be safely taught without decrease student performance. To test this, reduced onsite attendance less than 25% room capacity. Masks required at all times students instructed social distance. Six assigned per cadaver, but only...
