© 2019 The Author(s). Background: The spine is the most frequent location of bone metastases. Local treatment aims at palliation of pain and, given the increased likelihood of long-term cancer survival, at local control. Kyphoplasty and intraoperative radiotherapy (Kypho-IORT) provided instantaneous pain relief in 70% of patients at the first day after the intervention and resulted in local control rates of > 93% at 1 year in a recently conducted phase I/II trial. To assess its clinical value, we designed a phase III trial which tests Kypho-IORT against the most widespread standard-of-care, external beam radiotherapy (EBRT), in patients with painful vertebral …

An Iliac-Appendiceal Fistula Causing Gastrointestinal Bleeding, S. D. Gurien, A. Stright, M. Garuthara, J. D. Klein, M. Rosca

Journal Articles

© 2019 The Authors Aortoenteric fistulas are an uncommon cause of gastrointestinal bleeding, and iliac-appendiceal fistulas are an even rarer cause. We describe a case of an iliac-appendiceal fistula in a patient who presented several months after aortic reconstruction with gastrointestinal bleeding. An extensive workup revealed that the source of bleeding was localized to the appendiceal orifice. The patient underwent an appendectomy with a two-stage procedure involving the iliac graft for definitive repair and ultimately recovered well. Despite the rarity of aortoenteric and iliac-appendiceal fistulas causing gastrointestinal bleeding, keeping a high index of suspicion in patients with a prior vascular …

Adjustable Depth Fractional Radiofrequency Combined With Bipolar Radiofrequency: A Minimally Invasive Combination Treatment For Skin Laxity, E. Dayan, C. Chia, A. J. Burns, S. Theodorou

Journal Articles

© 2019 Oxford University Press. All rights reserved. Increasingly, patients are seeking minimally invasive methods to tighten skin and remodel adipose tissue. A large treatment gap exists among 3 types of patients: (1) the younger demographic, who increasingly desire soft tissue tightening without traditional operations, scars, and downtime; (2) patients with soft tissue laxity who are not severe enough to justify an excisional procedure, but not mild enough to rely on liposuction with soft tissue contraction alone; and (3) those with recurrent laxity who already underwent traditional excisional procedures. In these populations, plastic surgeons risk under- or overtreating with traditional …

Anti-Human Interleukin(Il)-4 Clone 8d4-8 Cross-Reacts With Myosin-9 Associated With Apoptotic Cells And Should Not Be Used For Flow Cytometry Applications Querying Il-4 Expression, Robert Z. Harms, Kiana Borengasser, Vikas Kumar, Nora Sarvetnick

Journal Articles: Surgery

Interleukin(IL)-4 is produced by T cells and other leukocytes and is a critical mediator of monocyte and B cell responses. During routine flow cytometry panel validation for the investigation of intracellular cytokines, we observed unique IL-4 expression patterns associated with the widely available monoclonal antibody 8D4-8. Namely, IL-4 (8D4-8) expression was observed in the absence of cellular activation and enhanced following staurosporine exposure. Mass spectrometry analysis of immunoprecipitates from peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) revealed that 8D4-8 cross-reacts with the ubiquitous cytoskeletal protein myosin-9. We confirmed these results by western blotting immunoprecipitates, using immunofluorescence among staurosporine-treated Caco-2 cells, and by surface-labeling …

Ca2+ Sensor Synaptotagmin-1 Mediates Exocytosis In Mammalian Photoreceptors, Justin J. Grassmeyer, Asia L. Cahill, Cassandra L. Hays, Cody Barta, Rolen M. Quadros, Channabasavaiah B. Gurumurthy, Wallace B. Thoreson

Journal Articles: Pharmacology & Experimental Neuroscience

To encode light-dependent changes in membrane potential, rod and cone photoreceptors utilize synaptic ribbons to sustain continuous exocytosis while making rapid, fine adjustments to release rate. Release kinetics are shaped by vesicle delivery down ribbons and by properties of exocytotic Ca2+ sensors. We tested the role for synaptotagmin-1 (Syt1) in photoreceptor exocytosis by using novel mouse lines in which Syt1 was conditionally removed from rods or cones. Photoreceptors lacking Syt1 exhibited marked reductions in exocytosis as measured by electroretinography and single-cell recordings. Syt1 mediated all evoked release in cones, whereas rods appeared capable of some slow Syt1-independent release. Spontaneous …

Emerging Medical Therapies For Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia, P. W. Speiser Jan 2019

Emerging Medical Therapies For Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia, P. W. Speiser

Journal Articles

© 2019 Speiser PW. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia has traditionally been treated with daily oral doses of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoid supplements. Such therapy does not precisely replicate the adrenal cortex's circadian pattern. As a consequence, patients are intermittently overtreated or undertreated leading to growth suppression in children, excess weight gain and altered metabolism. Several new treatments are on the horizon. This article will summarize some new potential therapies as adjuncts to, or replacement for, standard therapy.

© 2019, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature Limited. Atherosclerosis, which underlies life-threatening cardiovascular disorders such as myocardial infarction and stroke1, is initiated by passage of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol into the artery wall and its engulfment by macrophages, which leads to foam cell formation and lesion development2,3. It is unclear how circulating LDL enters the artery wall to instigate atherosclerosis. Here we show in mice that scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1) in endothelial cells mediates the delivery of LDL into arteries and its accumulation by artery wall macrophages, thereby promoting atherosclerosis. LDL particles are colocalized …

Journal Articles

© 2019 The Authors Apnea of prematurity (AOP) defined as cessation of breathing for 15–20 s, is commonly seen in preterm infants. Caffeine is widely used to treat AOP due to its safety and effectiveness. Caffeine releases respiratory arrest by competing with adenosine for binding to adenosine A 1 and A 2A receptors (A 1 R and A 2A R). Long before its use in treating AOP, caffeine has been used as a psychostimulant in adult brains. However, the effect of caffeine on developing brains remains unclear. We found that A 1 R proteins for caffeine binding were expressed in …

Use Of Endoloop In Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Enucleation Of A Very Rare Esophageal Tumor, Yahya Alwatari, Wayne Tse, Kasia Trebska-Mcgowan, Rachit D. Shah

Surgery Publications

A gastrointestinal stromal tumor is an infrequent tumor of the gastrointestinal tract with very rare involvement of the esophagus. We present a case of a patient with dysphagia and a 4 cm submucosal mass. The patient underwent thoracoscopic enucleation with complete resection of the mass. We present case details and operative video highlighting the important surgical steps of exposure and retraction. We believe that the Endoloop is a very useful tool in providing countertraction needed during minimally invasive resection of such lesions.

Association Of Anti-Mullerian Hormone With C-Reactive Protein In Men, Dinesh Kadariya, Nargiza Kurbanova, Rehan Qayyum

Internal Medicine Publications

While serum anti-mullerian hormone (AMH) levels are inversely associated with all-cause mortality in men, the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Elevated levels of inflammation, also associated with all-cause mortality, and may be the link between AMH and mortality. Hence, we examined the association of AMH with serum c-reactive protein (CRP), a biomarker of inflammation, in men. We included men ≥20 years from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1999–2004). We used survey weight-adjusted linear regression to examine the association between AMH and CRP without and with adjustment for age, race, body mass index (BMI), smoking, hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, glomerular filtration …
