Background: Trastuzumab, combined with chemotherapy, is the current standard treatment for both metastatic and early-stage HER2-positive (HER2 +) breast cancer. One of the mechanisms of action of trastuzumab is antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC), which involves engaging FcγRIIIA (CD16) on natural killer (NK) cells. A competent immune system and properly functioning NK cells are crucial for effective ADCC, as they can influence favorable clinical outcomes. Resistance to trastuzumab often develops after about one year. We previously reported that elevated levels of miR-19a-3p in the serum of patients with metastatic HER2 + breast cancer treated with trastuzumab were associated with a favorable …

Background: Timely reperfusion is critical in reducing mortality in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Although electrocardiography-guided cardiac catheterization laboratory (CCL) activation on the basis of first medical contact recognition improves system-level response, diagnostic uncertainty, particularly in atypical presentations, contributes to false positive activations (FPAs) and reperfusion delays.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance and operational impact of artificial intelligence (AI)-based electrocardiographic (ECG) analysis in real-world STEMI triage across a multicenter U.S. registry.

Methods: A total of 1,032 patients with suspected STEMI who triggered emergent CCL activation at 3 geographically diverse percutaneous coronary intervention centers …

Student Papers, Posters & Projects

Despite significant advancement in cancer treatments, therapies with minimal toxicity to healthy cells are still limited. One targetable weakness of cancer cells is their sensitivity to oxidative stress. We find that the combination of two antioxidants—the common food additive tert-butylhydroquinone (tBHQ) and a manganese porphyrin in clinical trials, MnTnBuOE-2-PyP5+ (MnBuOE)—increases oxidative stress and causes apoptotic death in several cancer cell lines, but not in mouse primary fibroblasts. Investigating the mechanism of cell death, MnBuOE is observed to catalyze the oxidation of tBHQ, producing the electrophilic quinone tert-butylquinone (tBQ). A critical role for tBQ and its electrophilic character was revealed with …

The Consequences Of Attempted Human Perfection: Genetic Enhancement And Why It Is Immoral, Kiran S. Sajnani Jan 2026

The Consequences Of Attempted Human Perfection: Genetic Enhancement And Why It Is Immoral, Kiran S. Sajnani

Mako: NSU Undergraduate Student Journal

In the field of biomedical ethics, genetic enhancement—the alteration of human DNA to increase characteristics beyond normal function—is a highly contested topic. Genetic enhancement presents serious ethical issues, especially when gene therapy seeks to treat or prevent disease. This paper makes the consequentialist case that genetic enhancement, whether somatic or germline, is intrinsically unethical because of its ethical, societal, and systemic ramifications. The autonomy of future persons is violated by germline enhancement, which also runs the risk of deepening socioeconomic gaps and escalating intergenerational inequity. Even though it only affects the individual, somatic augmentation undermines human diversity and agency by …

Late-Career Transitions From Private Practice To Academic Dermatology: Financial Drivers, Professional Rewards, And Practical Steps, Joshua R. Jennings, Thomas Helm, Jeremy D. Jackson, Robert T. Brodell, N A

School of Medicine

Independent practice dermatology once promised near-total clinical autonomy and robust profit margins, yet more and more dermatologists have been leaving their “private” practices and contemplating a mid- or late-career move to academia [1]. Openings are available! Over the last 25 years, many academic health centers have evolved to engage clinician educators in support of their educational mission, which requires more clinical rotations for larger student bodies and to provide income to offset losses in research support [23, 39]. Leaving private practice is neither anecdotal nor sentimental; it reflects quantifiable changes in reimbursement, overhead, and the …
