A “Third Place” For The Little Rock Air Force Base, Community Design Center

Community Design Center Project Reports

The third place is a widely understood concept coined by urban sociologist Ray Oldenburg to denote those life-affirming civic places that are neither work nor home. In an effort lead by Clemson University, the UACDC partnered with the Little Rock Air Force Base to develop a Social Center – or a Morale Welfare and Recreation (MWR)/Outdoor Recreation (ODR) Center per official military nomenclature – using mass timber technology. Two schemes reflecting mat building typology, a deep-plan, large, horizontal building developed from repeatable modules, were prepared by the UACDC studio at the level of Schematic Design. The first scheme, The Shed …

Ct-Guided Bone Biopsy, Meredith Lambertino

Student Research Poster Presentations 2022

Abstract

Bone biopsies are used to diagnose cancer that may have spread to the bone or is already in the bone. For accurate cancer diagnoses, interventional radiology (IR) bone biopsies are best done under the guidance of computed tomography (CT) imaging. The equipment required for CT during this procedure includes a gantry, table, and operator console. IR supplies all the needles, sterile drapes, and CT Localization grid. Bone biopsies require the use of a variety of needles to plan the procedure and collect a cell sample for analysis. The benefits of this procedure include a brief recovery, a less invasive …

Costas T. Lambrew Research Retreat 2022

• Using Standardized Patients (SPs) is effective in improving communication skills.

• Conducting SP training can be cost prohibitive in terms of time and labor.

• Demands of current curriculum created a need for an innovative and more efficient approach to meet new CLER requirement.

Concurrent Covid19 Pneumonia And Systemic Inflammatory Syndrome In A Two-Week-Old Requiring Ecmo, Jennie Godwin, Ayan Rajgarhia, Johanna I. Orrick, Jenna Miller, John M. Daniel Iv

Posters

Objectives: * Initially, newborns seemed to be relatively spared from severe COVID-19. However, with the emergence of the B.1.617.2 (Delta) variant hospitalization rates among children aged 0-4 years increased by 10-fold by the middle of August 2021. We present a case of a 2-week-old previously healthy preterm, twin, male infant who developed severe COVID-19 pneumonia, subsequent acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and an inflammatory syndrome requiring VA – ECMO support for 22 days. Methods: * A retrospective chart review was performed after successful weaning from ECMO. Parental permission for a case report was obtained in compliance with institutional standards. Results: …

Treatment Of Recurrent Wilms Tumor With Irinotecan/Temozolomide, Meagan Vacek, Terrie Flatt

Posters

Background: Despite improvement in relapse free survival (RFS) in recurrent Wilms tumor, the 4-year RFS rate for patients treated with vincristine/dactinomycin/doxorubicin is approximately 40%. Ifosfamide, carboplatin and etoposide are commonly used in relapsed solid tumors, but have significant toxicities and require hospital admission for administration. Our patient focused on quality of life, and this led to exploration of other treatment options. Objective: Describe a case of multiply relapsed Wilms tumor with management on oral irinotecan/temozolomide for improved quality of life and remission for almost 1 year. Design/Method: Case Report Results: The patient is an 11-year-old female diagnosed with Wilms tumor …

Covid-19 And Incidence Of Necrotizing Fasciitis: A Case Study, Tehreem Sajjad, Carmen Johnson, Janet Baatile-Ajrouche

Posters

COVID-19 manifests as a flu-like respiratory infection affecting multiple organ systems. Symptoms range from mild viral illness to severe acute respiratory infection. There is no definitive relationship between COVID-19 and cellulitis, inflammatory myositis, vasculitis, or necrotizing fasciitis. It is interesting to note that angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (Receptor for SARS-CoV-2) is present on endothelial cells in multiple organs, including dermal blood vessels and arterial smooth muscle cells. There are several theories that have formed to explain the relationship between COVID-19 and a necrotizing fasciitis infection. This study presents one unique case of an unvaccinated COVID+ patient and the necrotizing fasciitis infection …

Memory T Cell Populations In Human Leukemia, Sara Mcelroy, Fang Tao, John Szarejko, John M. Perry

Posters

Background Incorporating the immune system into cancer management is an area of robust research. Treatment modalities aimed at activating cytotoxic T cells against malignancies include immune checkpoint inhibitors, bispecific T-cell engagers, and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) tumor-specific T cells. Most anti-cancer T cell research is narrowly focused, but knowledge about the nature of diverse sub-populations of T cells in cancer, particularly memory T cells, is vital prior to potential incorporation into therapies. T memory stem cells (Tscm) are of interest due to their longevity and powerful abilities of self-renewal and creating the full spectrum of memory CD8+ T cells, including …
