Importance The utility of adenotonsillectomy in children who have habitual snoring without frequent obstructive breathing events (mild sleep-disordered [SDB]) is unknown. Objectives To evaluate early compared with watchful waiting and supportive care (watchful waiting) on neurodevelopmental, behavioral, health, polysomnographic outcomes mild SDB. Design, Setting, Participants Randomized clinical trial enrolling 459 aged 3 to 12.9 years an apnea-hypopnea index (AHI) less than enrolled at 7 US...
Chordoma is a rare, slow-growing malignant tumor arising from notochordal remnants. A retrospective review of patient records at two major referral centers was undertaken to assess the incidence, location, and prognostic factors metastatic disease chordoma. 219 patients with chordoma (1962–2009) were identified. 39 (17.8%) developed disease, most frequently lung (>50%). Median survival time initial diagnosis 130.4 months for who 159.3 those did not (<mml:math...
Automatic extraction of medical conditions from free-text radiology reports is critical for supervising computer vision models to interpret images. In this work, we show that radiologists labeling significantly disagree with corresponding chest X-ray images, which reduces the quality report labels as proxies image labels. We develop and evaluate methods produce have better agreement Our best performing method, called VisualCheXbert, uses a biomedically-pretrained BERT model directly map...
Livingstone's fruit bats (Pteropus livingstonii) are critically endangered and a captive population has been established as part of the International Union for Conservation Nature Species Action Plan. The largest colony, in Jersey Zoo, was sampled staphylococcal carriage at infection sites, disease associated with staphylococci had previously found. Staphylococci were cultured from swabs 44 (skin, oropharynx, mouth ejecta, skin lesions) their enclosure. isolates identified by matrix-assisted...
Background Diffusion‐weighted imaging (DWI) is common for evaluating pediatric musculoskeletal lesions, but suffers from geometric distortion and intense acoustic noise. Purpose To investigate the performance of a near‐silent distortion‐free DWI sequence (DW‐SD) relative to standard echo‐planar (DW‐EPI) in extremity MRI. Study Type Prospective validation study. Subjects Thirty‐nine children referred Field Strength/Sequence DW‐EPI DW‐SD, based on rotating ultrafast modified with sinusoidal...
The field of pediatric interventional radiology encompasses the treatment a broad range patients. Whether treating premature infant who weighs less than 1 kg or an adult-sized teenager more 100 kg, innovative skills radiologist are required to adapt equipment designed for adult patients, meet needs children. Moreover, children cannot be treated simply as small adults owing number factors, including differences in physiology, disease processes, and techniques between In this article, unique...
Performance of MRgFUS in pediatric patients has not been well characterized. Retrospective review 21 treatments 9 below the age 18 shows significant reduction viable tumor volume a variety indications including desmoid tumors, vascular malformations, and osteoid osteoma. is an effective ablative therapy children that warrants further investigation.
