This standardized-patient-based module prepares medical students to take inclusive, comprehensive sexual histories from patients of all orientations and gender identities. Health disparities faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer (LGBTQ) people are at least partially the result inadequate access health care insufficient provider training. incorporates implicit bias activities emphasize important role providers can play in mitigating these through compassionate, competent care....
Prenatal exposure to alcohol causes a wide range of deficits known as fetal spectrum disorders (FASDs). Many factors determine vulnerability developmental including timing and pattern exposure, nutrition genetics. Here, we characterized how prevalent single nucleotide polymorphism in the human brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene (val66met) modulates FASDs severity. This disrupts BDNF's intracellular trafficking activity‐dependent secretion, has been linked increased incidence...
Chest pain is a common clinical complaint for which myocardial injury the primary concern and associated with significant morbidity mortality. To aid providers' decision-making, we aimed to analyze electrocardiogram (ECG) using deep convolutional neural network (CNN) predict serum troponin I (TnI) from ECGs. We developed CNN 64,728 ECGs 32,479 patients who underwent ECG within 2 h prior TnI laboratory result at University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). In our analysis, classified into...

Adverse events in COVID-19 are difficult to predict. Risk stratification is encumbered by the need protect healthcare workers. We hypothesize that artificial intelligence (AI) can help identify subtle signs of myocardial involvement 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG), which could predict complications.Use intake ECGs from patients train AI models risk mortality or major adverse cardiovascular (MACE).We studied 1448 (60.5% male, aged 63.4 ± 16.9 years). Records were labeled (death vs discharge)...
Abstract Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has challenged researchers performing clinical trials to develop innovative approaches mitigate infectious risk while maintaining rigorous safety monitoring. Methods In this report we describe the implementation of a novel exclusively remote randomized trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT04354428) hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin for treatment SARS-CoV-2–mediated COVID-19 which included cardiovascular All study activities were...

Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia with an increasing incidence and prevalence. Mechanisms of AF in patients RHTN are not well studied. Obesity, high dietary salt intake primary aldosteronism (PA) commonly found. We have previously shown that more PA. Epidemiological studies suggest urinary sodium-to-potassium ratio may be a superior metric as compared to separate sodium potassium values for determining relation blood pressure cardiovascular disease...
A previously healthy 18-year-old woman presented to a primary care provider with 2-month history of headaches and midscapular pain. The pain was worse at night lessened exercise.
Abstract Objective Abnormalities in impulse propagation and cardiac repolarization are frequent hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), leading to abnormalities 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs). Computational ECG analysis can identify electrophysiological structural remodeling predict arrhythmias. This requires accurate segmentation. It is unknown whether current segmentation methods developed using datasets containing annotations for mostly normal heartbeats perform well HCM. Here, we present a...
Abstract Uterine leiomyomas are ovarian hormone-responsive tumors originating in the smooth muscle layer of uterus called myometrium. These benign require surgery or other clinical intervention ∼25% all premenopausal women United States. Despite high frequency and impact these tumors, pathogenesis uterine is not understood. The estrogen-responsive growth has been well established, however role G protein-coupled estrogen receptor (GPER) leiomyoma cell regulation studied. membrane bound GPER,...
