A Critical Review Of The Role Of Local Excision In The Treatment Of Early (T1 And T2) Rectal Tumors, Thomas A. Heafner, Sean C. Glasgow

Open Access Publications

The optimal treatment of early (T1 and T2) rectal adenocarcinomas remains controversial. Local excision and radical resection with total mesorectal excision are the two surgical techniques for excising early rectal cancer. Each has their respective benefits, with local excision allowing for decreased operative morbidity and mortality while radical resection provides an oncologically complete treatment through lymphadenectomy. Local excision can be accomplished via transanal endoscopic microsurgery or transanal excision. There is no significant difference in the recurrence rates (21% vs. 33%) or overall survival (80% vs. 66%) between the two local excision modalities; however, transanal endoscopic microsurgery does allow for a …

Skpa Restrains Synaptic Terminal Growth During Development And Promotes Axonal Degeneration Following Injury, E. J. Brace, Chunlai Wu, Vera Valakh, Aaron Diantonio

Open Access Publications

The Wallenda (Wnd)/dual leucine zipper kinase (DLK)-Jnk pathway is an evolutionarily conserved MAPK signaling pathway that functions during neuronal development and following axonal injury. Improper pathway activation causes defects in axonal guidance and synaptic growth, whereas loss-of-function mutations in pathway components impairs axonal regeneration and degeneration after injury. Regulation of this pathway is in part through the E3 ubiquitin ligase Highwire (Hiw), which targets Wnd/DLK for degradation to limit MAPK signaling. To explore mechanisms controlling Wnd/DLK signaling, we performed a large-scale genetic screen in Drosophila to identify negative regulators of the pathway. Here we describe the identification and characterization of …

A Training Programme To Build Cancer Research Capacity In Low- And Middle-Income Countries: Findings From Guatemala, Lauren D Arnold, Joaquin Barnoya, Eduardo N Gharzouzi, Peter Benson, Graham A Colditz

2010-2019 OA Pubs

PROBLEM: Guatemala is experiencing an increasing burden of cancer but lacks capacity for cancer prevention, control and research.

APPROACH: In partnership with a medical school in the United States of America, a multidisciplinary Cancer Control Research Training Institute was developed at the Instituto de Cancerología (INCAN) in Guatemala City. This institute provided a year-long training programme for clinicians that focused on research methods in population health and sociocultural anthropology. The programme included didactic experiences in Guatemala and the United States as well as applied training in which participants developed research protocols responsive to Guatemala's cancer needs.

LOCAL SETTING: Although INCAN …

Bicuspid Pulmonic Valve And Pulmonary Artery Aneurysm, Carlos Jamis-Dow, George Barbier, Mary Watkins, Gregory Lanza, Shelton Caruthers, Samuel Wickline

Open Access Publications

Bicuspid pulmonary valves and pulmonary artery aneurysms are two rare entities, reported in association, and usually attributed to hemodynamic alterations caused by the bicuspid pulmonary valve. We present magnetic resonance images of a patient with a bicuspid pulmonary valve and pulmonary artery aneurysm, and propose an alternative mechanism for this association, based on recent embryologic studies that link anomalies of the semilunar valves and great vessels with derangement of the cardiac neural crest cell development.

Examining The Impact Of Parental Self-Efficacy On The Early Intervention Process For Families With A Child Who Is Deaf Or Hard Of Hearing, Anna Magee Gandy

Independent Studies and Capstones

This literature review examines the relationship between parental self-efficacy and the family’s involvement in the early intervention process of their child who is deaf or hard of hearing as well as the ongoing participation in his or her education. Methods used to improve this self-efficacy and implications for further research in the field of deaf education are discussed.

Spectral Resolution And Speech Understanding In Children And Young Adults With Bimodal Devices, Holly Johanna Bridges

Independent Studies and Capstones

Tests of spectral modulation detection and speech understanding were administered to children and young adults with hearing loss who use bimodal devices (one cochlear implant and one hearing aid at the non-implanted ear). Spectral modulation detection performance increases with participant’s age, and better speech recognition scores are associated with better audibility (SII or PTA).
