Over the past few years, high-resolution optical imaging technologies such as coherence tomography (OCT), reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM), and multiphoton (MPM) have advanced significantly new methodologies for clinical research real-time detection, diagnosis, therapy monitoring of skin diseases. Implementation these into practice requires clinicians to an understanding their capabilities, benefits, limitations. This concise review provides insights on application OCT, RCM, MPM through...
In Fort McMurray, Alberta, Canada, the wildfire of May 2016 forced population 88,000 to rapidly evacuate in a traumatic and chaotic manner. Ten percentage homes city were destroyed, many more structures damaged. Since youth are particularly vulnerable negative effects natural disasters, we examined possible long-term psychological impacts. To assess this, partnered with McMurray Public Catholic Schools, who surveyed Grade 7–12 students (aged 11–19) November 2017, 2018, 2019—i.e., at 1.5,...
Enfortumab vedotin (EV) is a novel treatment for patients with advanced urothelial carcinoma who have failed platinum-based chemotherapy and immunotherapy.1 EV an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) composed of humanized anti-nectin-4 monoclonal antibody attached to microtubule inhibitor.2 We report 3 individuals unique cutaneous reactions after treatment.
Advanced diagnostic imaging is an essential part of preoperative planning for oral and maxillofacial surgery in veterinary patients. 3-dimensional (3D) printed models surgical guides generated from can provide a deeper understanding the complex anatomy, including relevant spatial relationships. Additionally, patient-specific 3D allow surgeons trainees to better examine anatomical features through tactile visuospatial feedback allowing improved planning, intraoperative guidance, enhanced...
In this qualitative study, we explored how students understood culture." Participants defined culture and wrote narratives regarding specific cultural encounters. The sample comprised both nursing (n=14) non-nursing (n=8) to allow for comparison groups. Content analysis of the revealed two broad paradigms understanding: essentialist constructivist. Essentialist four themes: determinism (culture defied individual resistance); relativism (the possibility making value judgments disappeared);...
Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma is a rare, aggressive form of with mean survival less than 6 months. Ectopic tissue can be present in the mediastinum due to faulty embryogenesis improper descent. Primary malignancies may arise from this ectopic tissue. A 90-year-old male history prostatic adenocarcinoma, hypothyroidism, and occupational therapeutic exposure radiation presented rash on his chest. review dermatopathology excised mediastinal specimen revealed rare papillary foci that tested...
In the wake of massive Canadian wildfire May 2016 in area Fort McMurray Alberta, we observed increased rates mental health problems, particularly post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), school-aged adolescents (ages 11–19). Surprisingly, did not see these decline over 3.5-year follow-up period. Additionally, our research suggested that impact this mass incident resulted other unanticipated effects, including finding children who were present for and relatively unaffected by showed a similar...

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease caused by autoantibodies directed against BP antigen 180 or 230.1 histopathologically characterized a superficial dermal eosinophil-rich infiltrate with dermo-epidermal junction (DEJ) detachment. On direct immunofluorescence linear deposition of immunoglobulin G (IgG) and/or complement component 3 (C3) present at the DEJ. Predisposing factors are broad and include human leukocyte genes, aging, trigger such as drugs,...

This study evaluated the effect of filling technique and rotational speed on efficacy sealer cement placement using Lentulo spiral filler. Cadaveric maxillary mandibular canine teeth (n = 74) from age breed matched fresh-frozen adult cadaver heads were utilized. Following routine mechano-chemical preparation, randomly divided into 8 treatment groups with varying speeds [250-2,000 revolutions per minute (RPM)] fill techniques (backfill versus pumping technique). The quality was...
Tertiary syphilis may present a diagnostic challenge due to negative nontreponemal serologies in up 30% of cases and frequent lack identifiable spirochetes on histopathology or other direct detection tests. We report 2 round bodies staining with Treponema pallidum immunohistochemistry by light microscopy biopsies from cutaneous syphilitic gummata. In 1 case, the finding was validated 3 times independent laboratories; T. detected polymerase chain reaction biopsy sample. Spirochete have...
