The aim was to measure female sexual function after total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis for ulcerative colitis using a validated scoring system and determine the impact of pouch on function.A cross-sectional survey performed modified version Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI-m). Measures function, including Faecal Incontinence Severity Index, were also evaluated.Of 166 women eligible inclusion, 90 responded questionnaires 83 these reported activity. mean age 38.4 years...
Atypical glandular cells (AGC) represent less than 1% of Pap test cases and include a variety lesions in both the cervix endometrium. The study aimed to investigate cytology-histology correlation AGC patients evaluate clinical utility hrHPV testing this diagnostic context. We identified 491 atypical our quality analysis (QA) database 336,064 tests interpreted between March 1, 2013 July 12, 2016. Of these, 251 had follow-up biopsies with 148 cases. most common histologic diagnosis associated...
Introduction: The novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of COVID-19, which has had a devastating international impact. Prior reports testing have reported low sensitivities nasopharyngeal polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and viral co-infections varied from 0-20%. Therefore, we sought to determine accuracy PCR for COVID-19 rates co-infection.Methods: We conducted retrospective chart review all patients who received between March 1, 2020–April 28, 2020. Test results complete pathogen...
A 49-year-old male presented to the Emergency Department with 7 days of subjective fevers, headaches, muscle aches, increasing shortness-ofbreath, and nonproductive cough.One his family members had been tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 3 ago.A review patient's past medical history revealed he chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) Rai stage IV, Binet C, complex cytogenetics, on daily venetoclax an obinutuzumab/venetoclax regimen.His was also notable uncontrolled insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus...
Recent data support that low-risk submucosally invasive (pT1) colonic adenocarcinomas (ie, completely resected tumors lack high-grade morphology, tumor budding, and lymphovascular invasion) are considered cured via endoscopic resection, provided the submucosal invasion is less than 1000 μm. Hence, pathologists' assessment of depth may guide further management surveillance versus colectomy).To assess interobserver concordance among gastrointestinal pathologists in measuring resections.Six...
Inflammation and structural remodeling may contribute to fibrogenesis in Crohn's disease (CD). We quantified the immunoexpression of calretinin, CD34, calprotectin as a surrogate for mucosal innervation, telocytes (interstitial cells playing role networking), inflammation, respectively, correlated them with bowel alterations stricturing CD.Primary resection specimens ileal CD (n = 44, 31 CD, 13 inflammatory CD) were identified. Left-sided ulcerative colitis trauma cases used controls....
Context.— Most cancers occur in lower and middle income countries, where pathologists are scarce. Despite this, few pathology training programs offer global health electives, trainees not exposed to challenges associated with practicing resource-restricted settings. Objective.— To implement a elective model aimed at exposing while alleviating overburdened Design.— For 1 year, 2 US institutions reviewed cases shipped weekly from lab serving Trinidad Tobago Guyana. Turnaround time, specimen...
