Muscle architecture, or the arrangement of sarcomeres and fibers within muscles, defines functional capacity. There are limited data that provide an understanding hip short external rotator muscle architecture. The purpose this study was thus to characterize architecture these small muscles.Eight muscles from 10 independent human cadaver hips were used in (n = 80 muscles). Architectural measurements made on pectineus, piriformis, gemelli, obturators, quadratus femoris, gluteus minimus. mass,...
Large appendiceal orifice polyps are traditionally treated surgically. Recently, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and submucosal dissection (ESD) have been utilized as alternative techniques.To evaluate the efficacy safety of techniques for management large polyps.This was a retrospective observational study conducted to assess feasibility EMR ESD polyps. This project approved by Baylor College Medicine Institutional Review Board. Patients who underwent ≥ 1 cm from 2015 2022 at tertiary...

Undertaking an intercalated year whilst at medical school involves taking time out of the medicine undergraduate programme in order to pursue a separate but related degree. It is widely seen as challenging rewarding experience, with much be gained from independent project or research component most additional degrees. However, intercalating encouraged many universities and incorporated into some curricula, it by no means compulsory for all students. The literature would suggest that those...
Gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms occur among patients diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and there is clear evidence that SARS-CoV-2, the causative pathogen, infects GI tract. In this large, multicenter cohort study, we evaluated variations in gastrointestinal hepatic manifestations of COVID-19 throughout United States (US).Patients hospitalized a positive test prior to October 2020 were identified at 7 US academic centers. Demographics, presenting symptoms, laboratory data,...

Among patients with cirrhosis and pre-malignant or early malignant mucosal lesions, surgical intervention carries a much higher bleeding risk. When such lesions are discovered, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) may offer curative therapy lower risks than surgery improved outcomes compared to traditional resection.
Background and AimsCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has infected over 93 million people worldwide as of January 14, 2021. Various studies have gathered data on liver transplant patients with COVID-19. Here, we discuss the presentation COVID-19 in immunosuppressed prior transplants. We also evaluate patient outcomes after infection.
Purpose: Dosimetric predictors of toxicity after Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) are not well established. We sought to develop a multivariate model that predicts Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) late grade 2 or greater genitourinary (GU) by interrogating the entire dose-volume histogram (DVH) from large cohort prostate cancer patients treated with SBRT on prospective trials. Methods: 339 CTCAE data were identified and analyzed. All received 40 Gy in five...
Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory condition typically affecting joint spaces. However, extra-articular manifestations are common including vascular and gastrointestinal tract involvement. This disease may also manifest as nodules, although these found in the extremities very rarely seen liver. When a patient presents with liver extensive work-up completed to determine infectious, inflammatory, or malignant etiologies. We report hepatic findings of rheumatoid during inpatient...
Objective: Even though the prevalence of malignancy within gastric ulcers is low, surveillance endoscopy routinely performed after ulcer diagnosis resulting in unnecessary costs and risks. Endoscopic appearance may be used to identify with malignant features guide decisions regarding need for endoscopy. Our aim was assess predictive value several endoscopic risk prevalent patients diagnosed ulcers. Methods: Patients were identified using reporting software 2 hospitals Houston, TX, from...
We are reporting a case of gastric volvulus in 52-year-old man the setting paraesophageal hernia initially identified on computerized tomography (CT). CT abdomen showed large with intra-thoracic herniation distal stomach and gastroduodenal junction, resulting mesenteroaxial rotation consistent acute volvulus. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) confirmed presence volvulus, which was temporized endoscopic detorsion. He subsequently had nasogastric tube placement ultimately underwent laparoscopic...
