The Future Of Science And Medicine, Joseph Zullo
Quill & Scope
American medicine and science is the best in the world. A lot of our success comes from the government’s strong financial commitment to invest in the sciences. However, the driving force in American science is the talent and ingenuity of our students and trainees.

Antibiotic Resistance, Karley J. Trow, Parker N. Savard, Marylou Mumme, Brandon M. Christen
Introduction to Public Health Posters
Our poster discusses an overview of antibiotic resistance. It goes into detail about what it is, how it came to be, and what medical professionals can do in their attempt to prevent it, as well as the general public. It also discusses the impact the impact antibiotic resistance has had on pharmacy, as well as the science behind it. A few organizations working towards this problem, and who keep a close eye on this issue are mentioned as well. We also discuss the determinants of health, which is essentially what is being done about it politically, individually, and the health …

Symptomatic Choledocholithiasis After Cholecystectomy, Joseph Spataro, Mazen Tolaymat, Charles Kistler, Michael Jacobs, Jeffrey Fitch, Monjur Ahmed
Department of Medicine Posters
Background
- Clinical manifestations of choledocholithiasis include biliary colic, obstructive jaundice, pancreatitis, and acute cholangitis
- Secondary common bile duct (CBD) stones are common when the gallbladder is intact or after recent cholecystectomy (CCY) whereas recurrent stones develop >3 years after surgery1,2
- Patients with retained CBD stones after CCY may be asymptomatic for years and there is limited data on their pattern of presentation
- Despite known predisposing conditions and risk factors for recurrent biliary disease, the role of intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) during CCY remains controversial
Poster presented at: World Congress of Gastroenterology at ACG 2017 in Orlando Florida, United States.

Department of Medicine Posters
Background
- An estimated 28% of eligible US adults have never been screened for colorectal cancer (CRC) 2
- Fecal Immunochemical Testing (FIT) offers an acceptable non-invasive screening option
- An estimated 56% of patients at our internal medicine clinic have not had colorectal cancer screening and alternatives to colonoscopy were seldom promoted

Quality? Safety? Stop Being Naïve., Rana K. Zaban Do, Steven Istephan, Jonathan Serman Md
Clinical Research in Practice: The Journal of Team Hippocrates
The first day of our inpatient medicine rotation, the Emergency Department (ED) admitted a patient to a general medical floor without notifying our rounding team. We used the institution’s system improvement tracking software to draw attention to communication breakdown in the interest of patient safety. This piece illustrates how there is a prominent hierarchy in medicine; it is inherent to the framework of the way in which hospitals function. A discussion ensues with our attending physician supervisor on our patient medicine service. During this discussion, we ponder whether it is possible to impact quality and safety from our position as …
Descartes Comes Out Of The Closet, Nora E. Culik
Descartes Comes Out Of The Closet, Nora E. Culik
Journal of Humanistic Mathematics
While “Descartes Comes Out of the Closet” is ostensibly about a young woman’s journey to Paris, the descriptive detail borrows language and images from Cartesian coordinate geometry, dualistic philosophy, neuroanatomy (the pineal), and projections of three dimensions onto planes. This mathematical universe is counterpointed in the natural language of the suppressed love story that locates the real in the human. Thus, at the heart of the story is the tension between competing notions of mathematics, i.e., as either an independent realm apart from history or as a culturally produced and historical set of practices. Of course, the central character proves …

Collaborative Leadership In Medicine, Mary Waters
Collaborative Leadership In Medicine, Mary Waters
Celebration of Scholarship 2012-2017
I interviewed five leaders in the field of medicine, all physicians in leadership positions, and analyzed their leadership styles. Additionally, I researched collaborative leadership and its role in the ever changing world of healthcare. I have found that physicians in respected leadership roles tend to be team members who are very willing to acknowledge their flaws but also be aware of strengths and use them for the good of patients and the community

Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Hypermobility Type Is Associated With Rheumatic Diseases, Kyla R. Rodgers, Jiang Gui, Mary Beth P. Dinulos, Richard C. Chou
Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Hypermobility Type Is Associated With Rheumatic Diseases, Kyla R. Rodgers, Jiang Gui, Mary Beth P. Dinulos, Richard C. Chou
Dartmouth Scholarship
We retrospectively analyzed electronic medical records of patients with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome hypermobility type (HEDS), including demographic information, workup, rheumatological diagnoses in order to determine its association with rheumatological conditions. HEDS Patients were stratified according to level of workup received (no additional work (physical exam only) = NWU, limited workup = LWU, comprehensive workup = CWU)). HEDS patients were predominantly female (21:4, F:M). The percentage of patients with at least one rheumatological condition was significantly correlated with level of workup (NWU, 9.2%; LWU, 33.3%, CWU, 67.1%; p-value < 0.0001). The HLA-B27 antigen was more prevalent (p-value < 2.2 × 10 –8 ) in the CWU HEDS patients (23.9%) than in the general population of the United States (6.1%). HEDS with CWU were associated with more rheumatological conditions (i.e. psoriasis, ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia) than those with NWU or LWU. In conclusion, HEDS is associated with complicated rheumatological conditions, which are uncovered by comprehensive workup. These conditions require different clinical management strategies than HEDS, and left untreated could contribute to the pain or even physical disability (i.e. joint erosions) in HEDS patients. While the mechanisms underlying these associations are unknown, it is important that all HEDS patients receive adequate workup to ensure a complete clinical understanding for the best care strategy possible.

Using The Medication Cabinet To Predict Fall Risk In Elderly Adults, Jessica Lopez
Using The Medication Cabinet To Predict Fall Risk In Elderly Adults, Jessica Lopez
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
Background: In the United States, 30-60% of older adults fall each year; 10-20% of these falls result in injury, hospitalization, or even death. Better prevention of falls in this population may be facilitated by broader identification of risk factors. The use of statins has emerged as a potential risk factor, but the data provide conflicted results.
Purpose: To examine the relationship between statin use and falls among community-dwelling older adults.
Methods: We evaluated the patient registry of a Level 1 trauma center. All patients aged > 50 years who were admitted for falls in 2015 were included (n=615). Many of these …
