To determine sensitivity and specificity of the T2 dark spot sign in helping to distinguish endometriomas from other hemorrhagic adnexal lesions.This HIPAA-compliant, institutional review board-approved retrospective study, with informed consent waived, included 56 women (mean age, 38.8 years; range, 18-66 years). With a radiology database search pelvic magnetic resonance images December 16, 2002, July 24, 2012, 74 cystic lesions hyperintense signal on T1-weighted were identified. Lesions...
Abstract Background Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is often recommended with triazole antifungals. Isavuconazole TDM currently not uniformly due to its high oral bioavailability, modest drug-drug interactions, and linear pharmacokinetics; however, an assessment of serum levels toxicity has been reported. This study aimed explore the exposure-toxicity relationship for isavuconazole. The primary outcome was threshold isavuconazole level most predictive toxicity. Secondary outcomes included...
There is abundant research indicating poor physical, psychological, and social functioning of patients with chronic heart failure (HF), a reality that can lead to health-related quality life (QoL). Little known about the experience rural HF.This study was part randomized clinical trial titled Rural Education Improve Outcomes in Heart Failure (REMOTE-HF) designed test an education counseling intervention improve self-care HF. We evaluated 612 patients. Multiple validated questionnaires were...
Robust technology infrastructure is needed to enable learning health care systems improve quality, access, and cost. Such relies on the trust confidence of individuals share their data for healthcare research. Few studies have addressed consumers' views electronic sharing fewer still explored dual purposes research together. The objective study explore factors that affect willingness information This involved a random-digit dial telephone survey 800 adult Californians conducted in English...
Background: Adrenal-protocol CT is commonly performed to distinguish adrenal adenomas from other tumors. However, the technique's utility among heterogeneous nodules not well established, and optimal method for placing ROIs in clearly defined.
Objective The most accurate orbital reconstructions result from an anatomic repair of the premorbid architecture. Many different techniques and materials have been used; unfortunately, there is currently no optimal method. This study compares use preformed vs intraoperative bending titanium mesh for reconstruction in 2‐wall fractures. Study Design Cadaver‐based study. Setting University hospital. Subjects Methods Preinjury computed tomography scans were obtained 15 cadaveric heads (30...
Approximately 18% to 25% of patients with alcohol use disorders admitted the hospital develop withdrawal syndrome (AWS). Symptom-triggered dosing benzodiazepines (BZDs) seems lead shorter courses treatment, lower cumulative BZD dose, and more rapid control symptoms in non-critically ill patients. This study compares outcomes critically AWS when treated using a protocolized, symptom-triggered, dose escalation approach versus nonprotocolized approach.This is retrospective pre-post 18 years or...
We hypothesised that severe asthmatics taking a statin drug, in addition to inhaled corticosteroids/long-acting β-agonist inhaler therapy, would have better asthma symptom control and improved lung function compared their controls.A retrospective, cross-sectional study of 165 patients with seen from 2001-2008. Hierarchical linear logistic regression models were used for modelling fitting.University California, Davis Medical Center (Sacramento, USA). Academic, single-centre, subspecialty...
Nutrition information on packaged foods supplies that aids consumers in meeting the recommendations put forth US Dietary Guidelines for Americans such as reducing intake of solid fats and added sugars. It is important to understand how food label use related dietary intake. However, prior work based only self-reported labels, making it unclear if subjective assessments are biased toward motivational influences. We assessed using both objective measures, stage change, quality a sample 392...
Altered dendritic morphology is common in neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), many of which show sex biases prevalence, onset and/or severity. However, whether varies as a function juvenile mice or primary neuronal cell cultures largely unknown even though both are widely used models for studying NDDs. To address this gap, we quantified CA1 pyramidal hippocampal and adjacent somatosensory cortical neurons from male female postnatal day (P)28 C57BL/6J mice. As determined by Sholl analysis...
To identify risk factors for pneumonia incidence in patients with dysphagia undergoing a videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS) an outpatient tertiary-care center.Historical cohort study.All individuals VFSS between 10/02/13 and 07/30/15 were identified followed historically 2 years. Demographic information, medical history, fluoroscopic data collected. The 2-year of was obtained from the records telephone interview. death calculated mortality ascertained.689 mean age (±standard deviation)...
Physicians are increasingly using Twitter as a channel for communicating with colleagues and the public. Identifying physicians on is difficult due to varied imprecise ways that people self-identify themselves social media platform. This first study describe reliable, repeatable methodology identifying Twitter. By this approach, we characterized longitudinal activity of US Twitter.We aimed develop reliable characterize their over 5 years by activity, tweeted topic, account type.In study,...
Abstract As COVID-19 continues to infect millions of people globally, it is essential understand how SARS-CoV-2 affects the brain. The purpose this study determine if there are any associations or patterns gross and microscopic neuropathological autopsy findings in brains patients who died from COVID-19. We analyzed 32 cases that met 3 requirements: (1) positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test at autopsy; (2) pulmonary histological features SARS-CoV-2; (3) complete autopsies conducted...
Traditionally, there has been a reluctance to use weight training with female gymnasts due concerns that it could cause detrimental increases in muscle mass and impede flexibility. Recent literature demonstrated strength no significant effect on flexibility can improve athletic performance. To assess pilot study the perceptions of collegiate coaches toward after starting inaugural conditioning training. Survey-based study. National Collegiate Athletics Association Division I women's...
Abstract Objective To investigate the association of maternal race/ethnicity with risk factors for brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI) and quantify proportion excess BPBI due to these factors. Study design This retrospective cohort study all livebirths occurring in California-licensed hospitals from 1996–2012 included 6,278,562 maternal-livebirth infant pairs 7762 diagnoses. Multiple logistic regression causal mediation analyses were used evaluate relationship Results Black Hispanic...
