An Unusual Ed Case: Aortic Aneurysm Presenting As Chf Exacerbation, Darren Finn, James Espinosa, Russell Mordecai, Kishan Patel
Rowan-Virtua Research Day
There has been a significant increase in the incidence of thoracic aortic aneurysms, currently making aneurysmal disease the 18th most common cause of death within the United States. This disease is typically an insidious one, with the aorta growing an average of only 0.1 cm per year. Consequently, most patients remain asymptomatic until late stages of the disease when dissection or worse, rupture has occurred. Under extremely rare circumstances, thoracic aortic aneurysms can present clinically due to mass effect. Airway, esophageal and vascular compression, secondary to aortic arch dilation has been previously documented. The condition can be acquired or congenital, …

Assigning Level Of Care In Blunt Chest Trauma Patients: Applying Objective Scoring Systems, Alyssa Imperatore, Kaitlyn Oldewurtel, James Eakins
Rowan-Virtua Research Day
25% of all traumatic deaths are related to blunt chest trauma and another 50% have in-hospital morbidity and mortality. Recognizing patients with high risk of mortality is just as important as recognizing the immediate severely injured patients. Atlanticare Regional Trauma Center developed a scoring system in an attempt to properly assign these patients to an appropriate level of care. The system was developed based on a literature review but has not yet been studied to review its effectiveness in improving outcomes in chest trauma patients. Therefore, the scoring system is used as a guideline and not an official document in …

Rowan-Virtua Research Day
When most clinicians think of subarachnoid hemorrhages (SAH), they think of “most severe headache of my life” as the most common chief complaint. However, it is only reported in about 70% of patients with SAH. Other symptoms may include nausea and/or vomiting, stiff neck, visual disturbances, loss of consciousness, weakness, and seizures. Patient history may involve previous SAH, hypertension, oral contraceptives in women, recent trauma, family history of intracranial aneurysms, history of smoking, alcohol, and drug use. However, there are atypical causes of SAH that may be missed upon initial evaluation for patients that may not have the above mentioned …

Arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) are the most common and effective method of receiving hemodialysis; However, these access techniques do not come without consequence. Aneurysmal degeneration after creation and even years after ligation of such AVF can occur. This is still considered a rare complication. A true brachial artery aneurysm has an overall incidence of 0.17% among peripheral artery aneurysms. Factors that increase incidence of this complication include trauma, age and immunosuppression. Research on this topic is becoming more prevalent, but more answers are still needed. Below is a case of brachial artery aneurysm presenting years after AVF ligation in a patient …

Case Report: Repeated Use Of Tetrahydrocannabinol Associated With Severe Cerebral Vasoconstriction, Pooja Patel, Ryna Then, Dena Little
Rowan-Virtua Research Day
Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome (RCVS) is a rare neurological syndrome. The classic presentation consists of recurrent, severe, ”thunderclap” headaches with neuroimaging findings consistent with segmental vasoconstriction of cerebral arteries. Sympathomimetics including cannabinoids have been found to be triggers in many cases of RCVS. Complications include subarachnoid hemorrhage, intracerebral hemorrhage, cerebral edema and ischemic infarction.
This case highlights the potential devastating and irreversible effects of RCVS precipitated by exposure to a sympathomimetic agent. The case emphasizes the importance of patient counseling regarding abstinence from agents that may provoke RCVS.

Rowan-Virtua Research Day
Unintentional ingestions can pose a difficult challenge to diagnose in the setting of the Emergency Department. Many may present with vague symptoms that are not consistent with classic overdose prodromes. Many patients do not identify or disclose over the counter medications, such as analgesics, with which acute/chronic ingestion in large quantities can result in life threatening medical emergencies. Their underlying symptoms may also cloud their clinical picture, further complicating workup within the ED.

Cushing’S Reflex And Bradycardic Arrest In Cryptococcal Meningitis, Scott Briggs, Trent Malcolm
Rowan-Virtua Research Day
Cushing’s reflex is a physiologic response to maintain cerebral perfusion pressure with elevated systolic blood pressure, widened pulse pressure, and bradycardia occurring in the setting of elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). The proposed mechanisms for reflexive bradycardia include ischemia to medullary brain tissue and compression of the intracranial segment of the vagus nerve leading to parasympathetic activation. (1) In acutely elevated ICP, bradycardia is a late finding of worsening intracranial pathology suggestive of impending herniation and cardiovascular collapse.
Cryptococcal meningitis has been identified by Infectious Disease Society of America for its association with elevated ICP. (2) Variety of pathogenic mechanisms occurring …

Rowan-Virtua Research Day
Spontaneous preterm delivery (SPTD, birth at <37 weeks’ gestation) is a leading cause of infant mortality in the United States [1]. Infants born prematurely are more likely to suffer from both short and long-term complications including neurodevelopmental delay, visual and hearing impairment, and chronic diseases such as heart disease, hypertension and diabetes in later life [2-4]. African American women have a 2-fold increased risk of preterm delivery compared to Caucasian women [5].The reasons for this disparity are poorly understood. This limits the ability to predict and prevent preterm delivery in the most high-risk populations.

Effect Of High Intensity Interval Training Vs Low Intensity Training On Fat Loss In Patients With Obesity, Jonathan Aaron Deck, Adarsh Gupta
Rowan-Virtua Research Day
Nowadays, there are several exercise modalities to lose weight, retain, and or build lean body mass. A widely known training philosophy that has gained increased popularity is high intensity interval training (HIIT). HIIT is based on exercising at submaximal or maximal intensity for a brief period then reducing work to minimal intensity for a longer duration in a series of repeated bouts. The benefit of HIIT is to increase fat loss through the scientific principle of EPOC (excess post exercise oxygen consumption). Low intensity training (LIT) also has its benefits in that it is more sustainable but with the caveat …

Biopsy of the lip is a procedure most used by dermatologists in order to obtain histopathological evaluation of a lesion. It has remained the definitive method of diagnosis for many pathologies, including malignancy. However, although the incidence of lip malignancy has been relatively unchanged since 2012, the number of lip biopsies performed has not followed the same trend, but rather steeply declined since. In this study, the national trends in lip biopsies are evaluated. The Medicare Provider Utilization and Payment (MPUP) database was used to evaluate these practice trends in Medicare providers.

It is estimated that in the near future there will be a shortage of physicians available to keep up with the needs of a growing older population. To try to account for this, medical schools are expanding class sizes and new schools are being created. While both allopathic and osteopathic schools are expanding, osteopathic schools are doing so a much faster rate. Unfortunately, it seems many students enter their undergraduate careers unaware of osteopathic medicine despite having an interest in medical school. Undergraduate student interest in becoming a medical doctor continues to rise, but so too does the difficulty of …
