The Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging (ADNI) database is an expansive undertaking by government, academia, and industry to pool resources data on subjects at various stage of symptomatic severity due disease. As expected, magnetic resonance imaging a major component the project. Full brain images are obtained every 6-month visit. A range cognitive tests studying executive function memory employed less frequently. Two blood draws (baseline, 6 months) provide samples measure concentrations...
Introduction: Management of malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO) with stents remains a clinical challenge, often involving frequent stent exchanges attributable to failure or other urological complications. We report our institutional experience for management MUO, including analysis factors associated failure. Methods: performed retrospective review patients treated indwelling MUO in nonurothelial malignancies at tertiary-care institution between 2008 and 2019. Univariate Cox proportional...
Introduction: For patients with clinically localized renal masses, positive surgical margins (PSMs) after robotic partial nephrectomy (RPN) have been associated a higher risk of disease recurrence, although some studies challenged this conclusion. Owing to inconsistent reports and lack long-term data, the clinical impact PSM RPN remains uncertain. We evaluate (>6 years) survival outcomes in respect margin status. Methods: conducted retrospective review who underwent for masses from June 2007...
Objective: We explored whether children with hearing loss (HL) and their parents perceive the child's quality of life (QOL) similarly using Hearing Environment And Reflections on Quality Life (HEAR-QL) survey. Study Design: Cross-sectional study. Setting: Pediatric otolaryngology clinic. Patients: 7 to 14 year old unilateral or bilateral HL parents. Interventions: None. Main Outcome Measure: The HEAR-QL is a validated hearing-related QOL survey has three domains total score, ranging from 0...

Introduction: Herein we evaluate the incidence of incisional lumbodorsal hernia (ILDH) after retroperitoneal robotic partial nephrectomy (RRPN) and associated patient-specific tumor-specific risk factors. Furthermore, aim to role routine fascial closure for prevention ILDH. Methodology: This is a retrospective review our database all RRPNs performed at Washington University School Medicine from 2000 2020. Postoperative imaging was reviewed evidence A clinically significant defined as...

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: Prostate multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been increasingly incorporated into the diagnosis and management of prostate cancer (PCa). Software fusion MRI-targeted biopsy (MRITB) emerged as a valuable adjunct to standard 12-core systematic biopsy. However, even with MRI guidance, cancerous foci are missed on This study attempts define “technical miss” for MRITB identify factors contributing miss.” METHODS: Patients were selected from...
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: This study evaluates the utility of self-reported quality life measure in children with hearing loss. We will compare HEAR-QL scores parent-reported scores. then test relationship between and on a standardized assessment cognition, NIH Cognition Battery. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: administer questionnaire to loss their parents. Battery child. include our population ages 7 14 any severity or side. exclude those intellectual disability, disorders speech language, who would be...
Background: Delayed proximal ureteral stricture (DPUS) after nephron-sparing treatment (partial nephrectomy [PN] and image-guided percutaneous ablation) of renal masses is a rare complication that occurs because an unrecognized injury to the ureter and/or its associated vascular supply. We present multi-institutional series patients who developed DPUS review relevant tumor characteristics, timing presentation, presenting symptoms, outcome management. Case Presentation: Between 2000 2019,...
