In Brief Objective: Posterior retroperitoneoscopic adrenalectomy (PRA) is a minimally invasive approach to removal of the adrenal gland. This anatomically direct approach, popularized by Walz, minimizes dissection and affords early access vein. We report largest experience date PRA in United States. Methods: The prospective endocrine surgery database at tertiary care center was used capture all patients who underwent between October 2005 February 2008. All procedures were performed using...
ABSTRACT Objectives: Children and adolescents diagnosed as having Crohn disease (CD), a type of inflammatory bowel (IBD), have increased vulnerability for anxiety symptoms that may be related to disease‐related processes. The aims this article are 3‐fold: report the proportion pediatric patients with CD whose self‐reported indicative distress, describe constellation symptoms, examine relation between symptoms. Methods: Retrospective medical chart review was performed 93 youths (ages 9–18...
Genetic variant interpretation contributes to testing yield differences reported for sudden unexplained death. Adapting a high-resolution framework, which considers disease prevalence, reduced penetrance, genetic heterogeneity, and allelic contribution determine the maximum tolerated allele count in gnomAD, we report an evaluation of cardiac channelopathy cardiomyopathy genes large, demographically diverse death cohort that underwent thorough investigation United States' largest medical...
Dental caries remains one of the most common infectious diseases humankind, which develops slowly throughout life, affecting children, adolescents, and adults. A vaccine against is urgently needed. We previously developed recombinant flagellin as a mucosal adjuvant for anti-Streptococcus mutans vaccines by nasal immunization. Furthermore, we demonstrated fusion protein strategy that combined target surface adhesion (PAc) in single construct. This construct enhanced specific IgA responses...
Background: Home enteral nutrition (HEN) is a safe method for providing to children with chronic diseases. Advantages of HEN include shorter hospitalizations, lower cost, and decreased risk malnutrition‐associated complications. Follow‐up after hospital discharge on limited. The purpose this study was look at discharged nasogastric (NG) feeds assess follow‐up feeding status impact growth. Methods: A retrospective chart review conducted pediatric patients from Mount Sinai Medical Center NG...
Nourishing a child undergoing bone marrow transplant (BMT) is essential, but the optimal method to achieve this not established. The objectives of study were investigate incidence and risk factors for complications gastrostomy tubes in patients with BMT.A retrospective chart review was conducted pediatric who received percutaneous endoscopic (PEG) either BMT or other indications during 3-year period. Occurrences complications, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) at time PEG placement, ANC...
Abstract This is a comprehensive review and analysis of 254 cases tested consecutively in the in‐house College American Pathologist‐accredited molecular genetics laboratory within New York City Office Chief Medical Examiner between October 2015 February 2018, using multigene cardiac panel composed 95 genes associated with channelopathy cardiomyopathy. Demographics, autopsy findings, medical history, postmortem genetic testing results were collected for each case. The majority decedents...
The aim of this study was to determine the use complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) in an inflammatory bowel disease population at a single pediatric center. secondary aims were predictors CAM assess parental attitude use. A survey developed that distributed electronically given out clinic. Two hundred thirty-five surveys analyzed. Thirty-six percent respondents reported their children had used CAM, while 19.6% current users. Sixty-three "extremely" or "very supportive" 57.6% would...
Anxiety is linked with adverse health-related outcomes and increased health-seeking behaviors among patients chronic illness. Yet, this relationship has received little attention in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease. The aim of study was to examine whether anxiety symptoms predicted youth at risk for repeated disease relapse greater gastrointestinal health care use over the subsequent 12 months.Eighty-six aged 11 18 years (M = 14.7, SD 2.0), their caregivers completed a validated...
Differences in certification of similar sudden infant deaths exists among forensic pathologists. This study sought to measure adherence intra-agency guidelines for death one jurisdiction and describe variables that may be associated with the differentiation syndrome (SIDS), asphyxia, undetermined certifications.A retrospective at New York City Office Chief Medical Examiner identified 427 investigation autopsy whose cause was ruled SIDS, or undetermined. Cases were reviewed number types risk...
According to American Cancer Society, there estimated have one million new colorectal cancer cases worldwide each year, and half of them die from clinical complications metastasis. The dominant metastasis site for patient with colon is liver. In this report, a 77-year-old male presented occult blood in stool, weight loss abnormal liver function tests. Previous medical history the included upper GI bleeding due duodenum ulcer alcohol drinking many years. Abdominal CT scan indicated...
The incidence of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in the pediatric age group is increasing. As there a growing cohort patients that will eventually move from to adult care, both and gastroenterologists need be aware issues specific adolescents. Patients may become lost follow up during transition it known medication visit non-adherence common this time. purpose study assess readiness population young patients, identify patient-related factors are predictive successful as defined by disease...

SUMMARY Cancers often display immune escape, but the mechanisms and potential for reversibility are incompletely understood. Epigenetic dysregulation has been implicated in escape of various cancer types. We have identified epigenetic modifier SET MYND-domain containing protein 3 (SMYD3) as a mediator human papilloma virus (HPV)- negative head neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), an aggressive disease with poor prognosis low response to immunotherapy pembrolizumab, programmed-death-1 (PD-1)...
Objective: To explore the classification and reconstruction strategy of defects in lateral face region after operation malignant tumors. Methods: Eighteen cases with complicated resection tumors from January 2015 to 2018 Hunan Cancer Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. There 14 males 4 females, aged 32 68 years. According presence or absence bony scaffold, divided into two main categories: soft tissue perforating combined scaffold defects. All 5 repaired free anterolateral femoral flaps....
