Patient is a 56-year-old male with a past medical history of type 2 diabetes, hypertension, prior MVA with chest trauma, and coronary artery disease with 2 prior stents in the obtuse marginal and right coronary artery who was brought to the ED for severe chest pain. Patient was immediately taken to the cath lab for cardiac intervention. Patient was identified to have 90-95% stenosis of his left circumflex but was unable to be stented due to tortuosity of the vessel and tight lesion. Due to patient’s multivessel coronary artery disease and newly diagnosed diabetes, patient was referred to cardiothoracic surgery …

Association Of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist Treatment With Perioperative And Postoperative Complications In Patients Undergoing Elective Bariatric Surgery, Justin Sanchez, Enith Espinosa, Sean Sojdie, Michael Green, Lauren Wonderly

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Glucagon-like peptide receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) are FDA-approved medications for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus, and obesity, and are also beneficial in cardiovascular risk reduction. However, due to known GLP-1 RA adverse effects, notably delayed gastric emptying, the ASA has implemented GLP-1RA guidelines aiming to minimize potential complications related to GLP-1 RA use in patients undergoing procedures requiring general anesthesia. With the ever-increasing number of patients being prescribed GLP-1 RAs, more research needs to be conducted to investigate their potential impact in other areas of healthcare. This retrospective study aims to compare surgical outcomes before and following the …

Bilateral Spontaneous Osteonecrosis Of The Knee (Sponk) In Young Male: A Case Report, Hans Drawbert, Mason Poffenbarger, Joshua Payne

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Introduction: Spontaneous osteonecrosis of the knee (SPONK) is a relatively uncommon disease consisting of a focal, subchondral lesion thought to be a subchondral insufficiency fracture that has progressed to collapse and may lead to end-stage osteoarthritis of the knee. There are several treatment options, including nonsurgical and surgical measures but almost 80% of cases end up requiring surgery, usually consisting of unicompartmental or total knee arthroplasty. However, despite these treatment options, there remains no good option for young patients who present with SPONK in large areas of their distal femur or disease in both medial and lateral condyles. Case …

Implementing A Standardized Screening Algorithm For Iron Deficiency Anemia In Pregnancy, Ariel Moskowitz, Nicole Tenzel, Joshua Mangels, Lyndsay Millican

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

OBJECTIVE: Anemia in pregnancy is a global health problem and complicates >40% of pregnancies. Anemia is associated with significant maternal and fetal complications including low birth weight, preterm delivery, postpartum hemorrhage, ICU admissions, need for blood transfusion, and maternal morbidity. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) and the CDC recommend screening for anemia at the first prenatal visit and again between 24 and 28 weeks gestation. The aim of this quality improvement project is to improve compliance of screening for anemia in pregnancy amongst the providers of Medical City Women's Care. METHODS: Using the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) quality improvement …

Cyanide Toxicity Induced By Apricot Kernel Consumption: A Case Report, Jatin Sadarangani, Vaishnavi Singh, Benjamin K. Kingsly

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

Functional foods are food items that should be consumed as part of a regular diet in order to provide advantages beyond what are typically referred to as traditional nutritional benefits. Furthermore, in order to support the better function claim or the decreased illness risk claim, these positive outcomes must be scientifically proven. Foods with particular health benefits have been referred to as "superfoods" more recently. Superfoods are conceptually defined as foods with high biological value because of their high concentration of bioactive components and high concentration of nutrients, as well as their high bioavailability and bioactivity in the body. As …

Survival After Emergency Clamshell Thoracotomy With Bilateral Atrial Appendage Injuries, Jennifer Austin, Enrique Alvarez, Alicia Lay, Christian Minshall

North Texas GME Research Forum 2024

INTRODUCTION: The probability of survival is poor in patients who require a resuscitative thoracotomy, reported in the literature to be 9-20%. Outcomes are worse in patients who have suffered blunt trauma compared to penetrating trauma reported between 2-7%. Many studies have been done to evaluate clinical predictors of survival versus mortality. We present a case of high-mechanism blunt trauma with a high injury severity score of 34 who survived after an emergency clamshell thoracotomy with full neurological recovery.

CASE PRESENTATION: This case highlights a 28-year-old male who arrived as a transfer to a level 1 trauma center following high mechanism …

Ossifying Fibroma And Central Giant Cell Granuloma, A Hybrid Tumor In The Maxilla, Jason Phung, Robert Bender, Susana Ferra

East Florida Division GME Research Day 2024

Introduction: Ossifying fibromas (OF) and central giant cell granulomas (CGCG) are benign lesions of the jaw. The presence of a hybrid lesion consisting of OF and CGCG is exceedingly rare.

Case summary: A 28-year-old male presented with complaints of nasal congestion and loud snoring worsening over six months. CT scan revealed a 2.2 x 1.5 x 1.2 cm radiolucent lesion involving the right maxillary sinus. During endoscopic sinus excision, a friable light tan and hemorrhagic lesion was seen occupying the right maxillary sinus with underlying bone destruction. Intraoperative pathology evaluation revealed no malignancy.

Results: Histologic examination revealed a biphasic …
