BACKGROUND: Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a disorder in very low birth weight (VLBW, < 1500 g) infants, associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Earlier detection of NEC may improve outcomes. We hypothesized that NEC's physiological signature resembles that of sepsis and that our model developed for sepsis, the Pulse Oximetry Warning System (POWS), would also predict NEC.

OBJECTIVES: Assess relationships between continuous heart rate (HR) and oxygen saturation (SpO

METHODS: In a retrospective multicenter analysis, we studied VLBW infants at four level IV NICUs, identifying cases of late-onset sepsis (LOS) and NEC (Bell stages 2 or 3). Using HR and SpO

RESULTS: Among 3914 infants evaluated, 5% had NEC and 13% had LOS. Cardiorespiratory data analysis showed that HR/SpO

CONCLUSION: NEC shares a cardiorespiratory signature with LOS. POWS predicted NEC with a dynamic rise before clinical diagnosis.

IMPACT: A cardiorespiratory early warning score analyzing …

Integration Of A Task Strengthening Strategy For Hypertension Management Into Hiv Care In Nigeria: Baseline Characteristics Of Participants In A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial, Weixi Chen, Juliet Iwelunmor, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

BACKGROUND: Improved access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) has increased survival among people living with HIV (PLWH) but also the burden of cardiovascular risk factors like hypertension. While the task-strengthening strategy for hypertension control (TASSH) is a viable integrated care model, evidence of its clinical impact in Africa is limited. This report presents baseline findings from a trial evaluating 2 implementation strategies for integrating TASSH into HIV care across primary health centers (PHCs) in Lagos, Nigeria.

METHODS: A total of 3,504 PLWH on antiretroviral therapy in 30 PHCs were screened, and 830 were enrolled. Baseline data on patient sociodemographic, clinical, laboratory …

Association Between Thumb Hypoplasia, Radial Longitudinal Deficiency, And Radial Polydactyly, Emma Payne, Charles A Goldfarb, M Claire Manske, Apurva Shah, Andrea Bauer, Lindley B Wall, Could Study Group

2020-Current year OA Pubs

PURPOSE: The expression of the sonic hedgehog protein has been associated with induction of both radial longitudinal deficiency (RLD) and radial polydactyly in animal studies. We sought to investigate the co-occurrence of thumb hypoplasia/RLD and radial polydactyly in a large registry patient cohort and to investigate the clinical presentations of such patients.

METHODS: The Congenital Upper Limb Differences (CoULD) registry was queried for all patients with contralateral diagnoses of thumb hypoplasia/RLD and radial polydactyly, as defined by the Oberg-Manske-Tonkin classification system, between June 2014 and January 2026. The demographic information, medical and musculoskeletal comorbidities, radiographs, and clinical images were collected. …

Brain Volumes In Fetuses With Congenital Heart Disease And Placental Vascular Abnormalities, Erin A O'Brien, Kaylin Taylor, Joshua S Shimony, Cynthia M Ortinau, Et Al.

2020-Current year OA Pubs

OBJECTIVE: Investigate the association between placental vascular abnormalities and regional brain volumes in congenital heart disease (CHD) fetuses with and without genetic abnormalities.

STUDY DESIGN: Secondary analysis of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and placental pathology data from 121 CHD fetuses enrolled in prospective neuroimaging studies at two centers.

RESULTS: Placental vascular abnormality was present in 46% of fetuses, and genetic abnormality was present in 19%, including 12% with both abnormalities. Fetuses with the combination of placental and genetic abnormalities had smaller brain volumes compared to fetuses without either abnormality for total brain, subcortical gray matter, brainstem, and cerebellum, with …

U2af1s34f And U2af1q157r Myeloid Neoplasm-Associated Hotspot Mutations Induce Distinct Hematopoietic Phenotypes In Mice, Michael O Alberti, Sridhar Nonavinkere Srivatsan, Jin Shao, Dennis L Fei, Mengou Zhu, Claudia Cabrera Pastrana, Monique Chavez, Stefan P Tarnawsky, Sarah Grieb, Timothy A Graubert, Omar Abdel-Wahab, Matthew J Walter

Recurrent somatic mutations in the spliceosome genes SF3B1, SRSF2, and U2AF1 are frequently identified in patients with myeloid neoplasms, such as myelodysplastic syndromes. We characterized the in vivo consequences of expressing two hotspot mutations in U2AF1 that code for the S34F and Q157R substitutions. Our results indicate that the two mutations induce distinct hematopoietic phenotypes in mice, suggesting that the U2AF1
