Abstract Background Sarcopenia, a reduction in skeletal muscle mass and function, is condition that contributes to functional decline disability older adults. Although research on this geriatric has developed rapidly recent years, little work been done document whether practicing physicians are incorporating sarcopenia into their clinical practice. Methods An online survey of 253 U.S. assessed knowledge sarcopenia, use the term practice, motivation for screening patients, diagnostic...
Abstract Vaccinationis a critical tool in the prevention of COVID‐19 infection for individuals and communities. The mRNA vaccines contain polyethylene glycol (PEG) as stabilizer. Currently, North America, only BNT162b2 (Pfizer‐BioNTech ) vaccine is approved aged 12–17. Most patients treated with contemporary regimens acute lymphoblastic leukemia receive PEG‐asparaginase (PEG‐ASNase) 10%–30% will develop allergic reactions. Optimizing access safety administration these critical. This report...
Abstract Over the past decade, field of valvular heart disease ( VHD ) has rapidly transformed, largely as a result development and improvement less invasive transcatheter approaches to valve repair or replacement. This transformation been supported by numerous well‐designed randomized trials, but they have centered almost entirely on devices procedures. Outside this scope focus, however, myriad aspects therapy management for patients with either no guidelines recommendations based only...
Clostridioides difficile is the most common cause of healthcare-associated infection, and severe cases can result in significant complications. While anti-microbial therapy central to infection management, adjunctive therapies may be utilised as preventative strategies.
The study aim was to co-design new pediatric procedure room prototypes with children, caregivers, and healthcare providers (HCPs).Medical procedures can cause pain anxiety for children their families. If spaces are not designed patients' needs, may take longer, require sedation, result in an inferior care experience. Involving HCPs co-designing optimal more efficient safer environments. patients families inform psychologically less traumatic environments.We followed human-centered design...
Background and Aims: Covert HE (CHE) is a common early stage of associated with poor outcomes. Available neuropsychiatric diagnostic testing underutilized has significant clinical limitations. Sleep deterioration consistently CHE HE; however, objective data sparse it not been studied longitudinally. We longitudinally study describe an association sleep metrics as detected by commercial wearable technology. Methods: monitored for 6 months using fitness tracker in 25 participants cirrhosis,...
Background: Lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB) is a common reason for hospitalization. However, recent data suggest low-risk patients may be safely evaluated as an outpatient. Here, we compare stable LGIB discharged from the emergency department (ED) with those admitted, determine factors associated discharge and 30-day outcomes, evaluate follow-up rates amongst cohort. Methods: A retrospective study of (heart rate < 100 beats/min, systolic blood pressure > mm Hg on rectal exam) who...
<title>Abstract</title> We describe a rare case of small bowel signet ring adenocarcinoma that developed in the context ileal Crohn’s disease. The patient had medically refractory, stricturing disease for several years, leading to obstructive symptoms necessitating resection, which ultimately led diagnosis. This highlights importance considering malignancy differential and surgical referral earlier treatment paradigm do not respond IBD-directed therapies. Since there currently are no...
In this retrospective cohort study, vedolizumab was associated with higher odds of steroid-free clinical remission at 1 year compared to anti-TNF agents for bio-naïve patients ulcerative proctitis.
Patients are increasingly using social media platforms to inform themselves about their medical diagnoses and explore potential treatment options. The industry has begun utilize communicate directly with customers. It is crucial that healthcare professionals aware of this direct communication realize such interactions may significantly influence patients’ decisions disease management. This study evaluated Twitter messaging by the sales promoting non-conventional treatments for inflammatory...
ABSTRACT Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an angioproliferative neoplasm associated with human herpesvirus-8. Gastrointestinal KS has been well documented in immunosuppressed solid organ transplant patients, only 26 iatrogenic cases published patients inflammatory bowel disease. We report a 24-year-old patient ulcerative colitis, maintained on cyclosporine for 2 years, who presented watery, nonbloody diarrhea and weight loss. Colonoscopy revealed herpesvirus-8-positive hemorrhagic nodules throughout...
Introduction: Individuals are increasingly using intermittent fasting to optimize weight. The concept of has transcended into social media platforms which often used disseminate medical information. It is important that clinicians aware the dietary recommendations discussed on media. This study evaluated frequency, origin and content Twitter messaging focused fasting. Methods: Social Feed Manager software (SFM; version 1.10.0: GW University, 2017) accessed Twitter's application programming...
We investigated the influence of restricted maternal nutrition between 28 and 77 days gestation on survival thermoregulatory adaptation following Caesarean section delivery near to term. This study was designed examine hypothesis that after birth would be compromised in those lambs born nutrient ewes. further hypothesised this due part inadequate hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroidal function. Lambs ewes were untreated (RU) or treated with thyrotrophin-releasing hormone (TRH; RT) immediately...
