Endoscopic Decompression Versus Open Laminectomy For Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Prospective Safety Study, Drake Myers

Yale School of Medicine Physician Associate Program Theses

Lumbar spinal stenosis is the narrowing of the vertebral central canal, lateral recess, and/or foramen, compressing the spinal nerves and is a common source of leg and back pain. Fully endoscopic decompressive surgery is a new and evolving surgical technique with proven efficacy. However, evidence of the safety of endoscopic procedures compared to conventional open laminectomy is lacking. In this prospective cohort study, we seek to investigate the safety of fully endoscopic decompression when compared to open laminectomy, specifically for nerve injury, incidental durotomy, epidural hematoma, and surgical site infection. We will recruit patients with single level lumbar spinal stenosis …

Personalized Meal Plans As An Intervention To Enhance Dash Diet Adherence In Hypertensive Adults, Christopher Shimwell

Yale School of Medicine Physician Associate Program Theses

The Dietary Approach to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet is more effective as a standalone treatment at lowering blood pressure than any pharmaceutical intervention alone, but adherence is poor and current interventions to improve adherence only show marginal improvements. Personalized meal plans are effective at improving diet adherence in other chronic conditions and may serve as an effective intervention for DASH diet adherence. In a randomized controlled trial, we will determine whether nutritional counseling plus personalized meal planning (intervention) improves DASH adherence more than nutritional counseling alone (control). We will randomize n=178 adults with primary hypertension to either the intervention or …

Combination Of Donepezil And Memantine To Mitigate Electroconvulsive Therapy Induced Cognitive Effects, Ryan Christian Rogers

Yale School of Medicine Physician Associate Program Theses

Electroconvulsive therapy is a procedure whereby patients have electricity delivered to their brain to induce a generalized seizure. Electroconvulsive therapy is highly efficacious in treating conditions such as major depressive disorder, but it can induce temporary cognitive deficits and memory loss. Studies suggest that medications used to slow Alzheimer’s disease may diminish these adverse effects, but we aim to determine whether donepezil and memantine combination therapy can prophylactically protect cognitive functioning and memory in patients receiving electroconvulsive therapy. Using a randomized control design, we assess patients with major depressive disorder before and after electroconvulsive therapy using a battery of cognition …

Topiramate For Weight Loss In Adults With Obesity And Loss Of Control Eating After Bariatric Surgery, Amanda Faxon

Yale School of Medicine Physician Associate Program Theses

Diagnostic criteria for binge eating disorder may preclude a diagnosis in post-bariatric surgery patients because they require consumption of abnormally large quantities. Loss of control eating is considered the salient feature of binge eating disorder in some eating disorder literature, and some of the field is moving towards excluding the quantity of food criterion. Loss of control eating is associated with poorer weight outcomes post-surgery. Topiramate, an anticonvulsant, has been shown to improve weight outcomes in patients with binge eating disorder after surgery, therefore its evaluation in patients with loss of control eating and obesity post-surgery is warranted. We aim …

The Dance Of Ādi Śakti: The Goddess In The Songs Of Bharati And Nazrul, Achintya Prahlad

Yale Journal of Music & Religion

C Subramania Bharati (1882-1921) and Kazi Nazrul Islam (1899-1976) were significant poet-songwriters of the Indian freedom struggle. Their works explore a wide range of themes – political, philosophical, romantic and devotional. Both poets were educated in rāga music, which is prominent in many of their songs. Bharati wrote in Tamil, while Nazrul wrote in Bangla. It is highly unlikely that they read or were influenced by each other’s works. However, one finds several similarities in their poetry, especially the importance given to the goddess Ādi Śakti in her various forms, Kālī in particular. The goddess plays a major role in …

Bodies Of Silence, Floods Of Nectar: Ritual Music In Contemporary Brahmanical Tantric Temples Of Kerala, Paolo Pacciolla

Yale Journal of Music & Religion

The Tantric concept of sound (nāda) as universal life-force has seen worldwide diffusion over the last few decades but such a fame does not reflect academic interest in the impact of Tantra on music. Indeed, while a number of essays have been written to demonstrate the contribution of Tantrism to the evolution of Indian religions and culture, its contribution to music has been left largely unexplored.

The word Tantra refers to a pan-Asian religious phenomenon spread over numerous centuries and including a wide number of sects having different and even opposite philosophical and theological approaches which may be …

Liturgy And Musical Inculturation In A Post-Apartheid South African Catholicism, Austin Chinagorom Okigbo

Yale Journal of Music & Religion

There is a developing trend within mainstream South African Churches to incorporate styles of traditional African music and cultural elements in liturgical functions. This is happening in places where such ideas were hitherto unwelcome because mission churches witnessed the denigration of indigenous African cultures by Europeans during the eras of both colonialism and apartheid. Inculturation Theology underscores the current drive for liturgical transformation. It comprises a part of Black Theology in South Africa, which developed as an intellectual framework for liberation during the time of the anti-apartheid struggles. Using the ethnographic study of the cultural mass at Emmanuel Cathedral in …
