Measurable Residual Disease Testing In Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Current State, Foundational Models, And Tools For Future Development, Joseph Van Galen, Stephen D. Willis, Ashish Bains, Sara H. Small

Department of Medical Oncology Faculty Papers

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a lethal and rapidly progressive hematologic malignancy with high rates of relapse and treatment refractoriness. Management of AML is complicated by biological heterogeneity in a disease that is broadly defined by the clonal expansion of myeloblasts that otherwise play an important role in healthy marrow tissues. While subtypes of AML are increasingly defined by druggable driver mutations including FLT3-ITD, IDH1, IDH2, and NPM1, conventional chemotherapy and reduced intensity induction regimens (e.g., azacitidine-venetoclax) remain therapeutic backbones. One area of active development for personalization of AML treatment is the assessment of measurable residual disease (MRD). MRD testing …

Bioinformatics Analysis Of Trpv1 Expression And Its Role In Hepatocellular Carcinoma Prognosis, Vivek K. Kashyap, Bhuvnesh P. Sharma, Himanshu N. Singh, Sanjay Kumar, Deepak Verma, Deepak Parashar, Murali M. Yallapu, Everardo Cobos, Subhash Chauhan

School of Medicine Publications

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is among the most lethal malignancies globally, with a persistently poor prognosis due to late diagnosis and limited therapeutic options available. The transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1), a calcium-permeable cation channel, plays critical roles in cancer pathogenesis across several cancer types, but its role in HCC remains poorly defined.

Methods: We performed an integrative bioinformatics analysis of TRPV1 utilizing multiple public databases, including TCGA, GEO, TIMER, UALCAN, cBioPortal, LinkedOmics, and COSMIC in HCC. We examined the TRPV1 expression profile, prognostic significance, genetic alterations, DNA methylation status, co-expression networks, and correlations with immune infiltration. Single-cell RNA …

Primary cardiac fibromas are rare benign tumors that may carry arrhythmic risk. We report a case of cardiac fibroma that was incidentally detected in an 18-year-old athlete with echocardiography and MRI during routine pre-championship screening. Following multidisciplinary heart team discussion and shared decision-making, surgical excision was performed due to potential arrhythmic risk in the setting of high-intensity athletic activity.

Examining The Relationship Between A Positive Obstructive Sleep Apnea Diagnosis And Referring Symptoms Of The Pregnant Patient, Christina Emerson, Beth Tremblay

The Knowledge and Creativity Expo

PROBLEM: Many healthcare providers do not routinely screen pregnant individuals for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), contributing to its underdiagnosis and potentially leading to various pregnancy-related health issues. Currently used OSA screening tools, such as the Berlin Questionnaire, STOP-BANG Questionnaire, and Epworth Sleepiness Scale, often demonstrate poor predictive value in pregnant women due to the dynamic physiological changes of pregnancy and the differing presentation of OSA in this population.

PURPOSE: To examine the relationships between a positive OSA diagnosis, patient characteristics, and the symptoms among pregnant patients referred for sleep studies.

EBP QUESTIONS: 1) Is there a relationship between certain referring …

Einstein Health Papers

Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AF) remains one of the leading dysrhythmias incurring hospitalization. We set out to determine the impact of socioeconomic status (SES) on in-hospital cardiac procedures and the readmission outcomes in patients with AF. Methods: The National Readmission Database (NRD) was searched for adults with a primary diagnosis of AF between 2010 and 2019. We determined unplanned AF-specific readmission within 30 days. Median neighborhood household income was assessed by patient zip code as quartiles: low income (Q1), middle income (Q2), upper-middle income (Q3), and high income (Q4). Differences in in-hospital cardiac procedures during the index hospitalization and probability of …

Donor Sex And Platelet Storage Change The Therapeutic Effects Of Platelet-Derived Extracellular Vesicles On Endothelium, Mandeep Kaur, Malvika Gupta, Sowmya Shree Gopal, Charles E. Wade, Jessica C. Cardenas, Amit K. Srivastava

Cardeza Foundation for Hematologic Research

Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) play an active role in vascular protection and repair and are being explored as a viable alternative to platelet therapy. Because platelet function and stability are shaped by donor sex and storage conditions, these same factors are likely to influence the PEVs they release. Understanding these influences is key to developing PEVs into a safe and dependable therapeutic option. In this study, we investigated how donor sex and platelet storage affect the therapeutic properties of PEVs. To address this, PEVs were isolated from platelets of healthy male and female donors. Platelets were either processed immediately after …

Proposed Standardized Nomenclature For Anomalous Aortic Origin Of A Coronary Artery: An International Multidisciplinary Initiative, Rajesh Krishnamurthy, Cristina Basso, Marshall L Jacobs, Julie A Brothers, Massimo A Padalino, Silvana Molossi

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Increasing use of advanced noninvasive imaging has provided great anatomic and morphologic details to characterize congenital coronary artery anomalies. Anomalous aortic origin of a coronary artery (AAOCA) is a subtype that may lead to myocardial ischemia with variable clinical manifestations across the lifespan. Management decision making in AAOCA is hindered by anatomic variants of differing physiologic consequences. Several systems of nomenclature have been used that lack uniformity in potentially high-risk morphologic features. The ICAAC (International Coronary Artery Anomalies Collaborative), a group of experts in coronary artery anomalies, proposes a standardized nomenclature to describe anatomy and morphologic features of AAOCA using …

Plastic Deformation Of The Pediatric Forearm: Recognition, Radiographic Measurement, And Management., Caitlin Wetzel, Matthew Rohl, Taylor Manes, Allen Kadado

Ambulatory and Primary Care Articles

Pediatric forearm bowing fractures, also known as plastic deformation fractures, are a clinically important but often underdiagnosed injury pattern. These fractures usually occur from longitudinal compressive forces such as falls on an outstretched hand, causing plastic deformation that exceeds the elastic limit of pediatric bone. Patients often present with nonspecific symptoms like pain, swelling, and limited pronation-supination, and these injuries can be subtle on radiographs. Using standardized measurement methods, such as the percentage of radial bowing relative to total bone length, can improve diagnosis; values over approximately 10% of radial length are considered suggestive of pathological bowing. Missing or delaying …

Different mechanical characteristics, i.e., tensile strength, elastic modulus, elongation at break, and resistance to heat, are studied. To determine microstructural characteristics and dispersion of reinforcements, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was …

Patiromer For Patients With Heart Failure At Risk Of Hyperkalemia: Care-Hk In Hf Registry, Stefan D Anker, Biykem Bozkurt, Javed Butler, John G Cleland, Nihar Desai, Diederick E Grobbee, Ellie Kelepouris, Giuseppe Rosano, Tibor Kempf, Martin Schulz, Carla-Maria Brandes, Victoria Donachie, Andrew J Sauer

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Background: For patients with heart failure (HF), hyperkalemia (HK) may prevent optimal renin-angiotensin system inhibitor (RASi) use. Randomized trials show that patiromer, a contemporary potassium binder, reduces serum potassium (sK+) concentrations and HK, potentially enabling RASi optimization. We sought to assess the real-world effectiveness of patiromer in facilitating RASi optimization in HF patients at increased risk of HK.

Methods and results: The CARE-HK in HF (Cardiovascular and Renal Treatment in HF Patients with HK or at High Risk of HK) (NCT04864795) was a prospective registry of patients with chronic HF at increased risk of HK (prior or current …

Touching Lives With Empathy And Assurance In Medicine (Team): An Experiential Palliative Care Medicine Program For Medical Students, Kevin A. Barnes, Simone K. Schumaecker, Madeline L. Dunstan, Marissa C. Galicia-Castillo

The Knowledge and Creativity Expo

Palliative Care Medicine (PCM) education presents unique challenges as core competencies like communication, response to grief, and engaging seriously ill patients are difficult to teach through classroom instruction. Despite didactics and modules, many medical students report feeling underprepared for end-of-life discussions. Emerging evidence suggests that experiential learning, particularly one-on-one interactions with patients, reduces learner insecurity and deepens understanding of serious illness. The Touching Lives with Empathy and Assurance in Medicine (TEAM) program at Lake Taylor Transitional Care Hospital was developed to address this gap through a structured, longitudinal PCM experience. This project analyzes the program’s design, implementation, and early participation …

Concomitant Subacromial Decompression Remains Commonly Performed During Rotator Cuff Repair: A Trinetx Study, Madison Baldauf, Zachary Krumm, Savannah Ward, Katherine Worcester, Kevin Bonner Md

The Knowledge and Creativity Expo

Introduction:

Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (RCR) is among the most frequently performed shoulder procedures in the US and is often accompanied by concomitant subacromial decompression (SAD). In recent years some studies have called into question the benefit of SAD in this setting. The topic is controversial as many surgeons still feel SAD is indicated. This study aims to characterize the changes in proportion of SAD performed concomitantly with RCR over recent years using TriNetX.

Methods:

The TriNetX database was queried for all patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair from 2013 to 2025. Cohorts were established using the Current Procedural Terminology …

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation In Trauma Before And After Covid-19: Associations Of Utilization, Timing, And Outcomes, Ryan Mancoll, William Rice, Theodore Chin, Grayson Mast M.D, Samantha Olafson M.D.

The Knowledge and Creativity Expo

Objectives:

The COVID-19 pandemic expanded and altered general ECMO utilization and provider experience; however, any impact on trauma-specific ECMO practice following this shift remains unclear. We hypothesize that trauma ECMO utilization patterns, timing of initiation, and outcomes have differed following COVID-19.

Methods:

We conducted a retrospective cohort study of trauma patients receiving ECMO (2017-2024) using the American College of Surgeons Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) Participant Use Files. The primary exposure was the COVID era (2017-2019 vs. 2021-2024). Primary outcomes included ECMO utilization, time to initiation, and in-hospital mortality; secondary outcomes included discharge disposition, major complications, and length of stay …

Staged Versus Immediate Bilateral Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction In A Community Hospital Setting: A Procedure And Patient‑Level Analysis Of Recovery Burden And Safety:, Ryan Mancoll, Adam Akari, Shreyas Bhalle, Lawrence Colen, John Mancoll

The Knowledge and Creativity Expo

Introduction: Reconstruction using Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flaps is standard for muscle-sparing breast restoration following mastectomy. Staging the procedure in two is becoming increasingly common and an option for community surgeons to decrease operation-specific time burden. We hypothesize that in our community hospital-based cohort, staged reconstruction will be associated with lower recovery burden and decreased complication risk.
Methods: This study was a retrospective single-surgeon cohort of patients receiving staged, immediate or unilateral DIEP breast reconstruction (N = 276) from 2011-2021. Procedure-level multivariate regression evaluated surgical time, Length of stay, opioid use (MME), and perioperative change. Patient-level multivariate regression assessed …

Exploring The Relationship Between Behavioral Health Early Prediction Model And Patient Outcomes In The Emergency Department, Karen M. Richendollar, Kathie M. Zimbro

The Knowledge and Creativity Expo

Problem: Emergency departments (EDs) are increasingly utilized for mental health (MH) care, often resulting in overcrowding and delayed access to specialized services. A significant proportion of MH patients are discharged without a psychiatric consult, raising concerns about safety and readmission rates. This trend places additional strain on already limited behavioral health resources and contributes to care delays for patients in acute crisis. Moreover, the lack of standardized discharge criteria for MH patients increases variability in care and may compromise patient outcomes. Purpose: This study evaluates the effectiveness of the Behavioral Health Early Discharge Prediction Model (BHEDPM) in identifying MH patients …

Journal of the Saudi Heart Association

Acute fulminant myocarditis represents a severe complication of myocarditis, necessitating early suspicion and intervention for improved patient outcomes. Influenza B-induced myocarditis remains a relatively rare entity. A young lady presented to the emergency department with symptoms of heart failure and cardiogenic shock, requiring inotropes without significant improvement. For the continued deterioration of her hemodynamics, she underwent mechanical circulatory support, including Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) and Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP).  The follow-up investigations showed positive influenza B. She was treated with antiviral therapy and steroids, resulting in gradual improvement in hemodynamics and left ventricular ejection fraction

Cbx6-Ca9 Axis: An Epigenetic-Metabolic Vulnerability In Glioblastoma, Keykavous Parang

Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most therapeutically recalcitrant malignancies, with median survival rarely exceeding 15 months despite maximal therapy.¹ The hypoxic tumor microenvironment drives treatment resistance through epigenetic and metabolic adaptations.²

In this issue of Molecular Therapy Oncology, the study by Wang et al.³ demonstrates a novel regulatory axis between CBX6 (chromobox 6), a polycomb group protein, and CA9 (carbonic anhydrase 9), revealing how hypoxia-driven epigenetic reprogramming promotes tumor progression and identifying a mechanistically linked pathway for therapeutic intervention in GBM.

The study by Wang et al.3 advances our understanding of how the tumor microenvironment …

A Hemorheological Perspective On Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction: Association Of Erythrocyte Parameters With Angiography-Derived Coronary Microcirculatory Resistance, Abdulrahman Alqazzaz, Yanfeng Lu, Jasmine Bao, Gary S. Mintz, Jiahao Feng, Yong Zhang, Shanshan Gao, Qiang Song, Feifei Ning, Hytham H. Al-Samawi, Mohsen Al-Manj, Mohammed Al-Asadi, Xin Huang, Ning Guo

Student Papers, Posters & Projects

BACKGROUND: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) contributes to myocardial ischemia in patients both without obstructive coronary artery disease (e.g., MINOCA/INOCA) and in those with co-existing epicardial stenosis. While its etiology includes structural and functional causes. hematologic parameters have been linked to cardiovascular outcomes. However, the relationship between red blood cell (RBC) markers and microvascular resistance remains poorly characterized. We aim to evaluate whether RBC parameters are correlated with the angiography-derived index of microcirculatory resistance (angio-IMR).

METHODS: This retrospective study evaluated the association between red blood cell (RBC) parameters and angio-IMR in patients with intermediate coronary artery disease (30%-70% stenosis). Data were …

Mdm4 At The Crossroads: Beyond P53 And Mdm2., Dipesh Thapa, Allison St John, Alejandro Parrales, Atul Ranjan, Tomoo Iwakuma

Manuscripts, Articles, Book Chapters and Other Papers

MDM4 (Murine Double Minute 4), also known as MDMX, is a crucial negative regulator of the tumor suppressor p53. MDM4 heterodimerizes with MDM2 to enhance MDM2-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of p53, thereby promoting tumorigenesis. Beyond its canonical role in inhibiting p53 activity, recent studies have revealed diverse p53-independent functions. MDM4 interacts with various proteins, including p73, E2F1, casein kinase 1α, PPARα, and TRIM21 to regulate cell cycle progression, β-catenin-mediated pre-leukemic progression, and ferroptosis independent of p53. In addition, MDM4 functions independently of both p53 and MDM2 by interacting with proteins, such as SMAD family members 3/4, retinoblastoma protein (pRB), p21, …

Comparative Analysis Of Clearing Methods For 3d Imaging Of The Vasculature In Mineralized Mouse Tissues, Re-Join Consortium, Chih-Wei Hsu, Brendan Lee, Nele Haelterman, Joshua D Wythe

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Historically, visualization of vascular networks within the musculoskeletal system, particularly in mineralized tissues such as bones and joints, has been limited to conventional 2D histological approaches. Recent advances in optical tissue clearing technologies and fluorescence imaging approaches in whole, intact tissues offer an entrée to interrogate the vasculature at unprecedented resolution during both musculoskeletal development and in pathologic contexts in three dimensions. However, these clearing techniques were originally not developed for imaging hard mineralized tissues, such as the femur and tibia. Herein, we have optimized tissue decalcification conditions and compared aqueous- and solvent-based tissue clearing approaches to establish an optimal …

K2p Channels As Key Regulators Of Cardiovascular And Pulmonary Vascular Function, Bradley K Mcconnell

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Two-pore domain potassium (K2P) channels are the most recently identified family of potassium channels. They are regarded as the largest group of background “leak” channels, encoded by 15 mammalian KCNK genes, and divided into six subfamilies (TWIK, TREK, TASK, TALK, THIK, and TRESK). These channels have a role in stabilizing the resting membrane potential. Their widespread presence in the heart and vasculature supports cellular homeostasis by regulating cardiac rhythm, vascular tone, and protection against ischemic stress. The TASK, TWIK, and TREK subfamilies are the most abundantly expressed K2P channel subfamilies in the cardiovascular system, and dysregulation of specific members has …

Incidence Of Autoimmune Diseases In Children With Atopy Treated With Dupilumab, Mitchell Maltenfort, Christopher B Forrest, Theresa W Guilbert, Madeline Schutt, Hiroki Morizono, Gerardo Vazquez Garcia, Anna Cristina Garza-Mayers, Joseph Demetrius Hernandez, Sara Anvari, Suchitra Rao, Jonathan M Spergel

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Background: The type 2 inflammation-blocking agent dupilumab has gained traction as an effective treatment of multiple atopic diseases. New-onset autoimmune manifestations have been infrequently reported in dupilumab-treated atopic patients, primarily among adults. Autoimmune outcomes in atopic children on dupilumab are less clear.

Objective: We aimed to determine if dupilumab treatment of atopic children is associated with increased autoimmune or autoinflammatory disease diagnosis risk.

Methods: Using a multi-institutional electronic health record database composed of 10 PEDSnet academic health systems, we performed a retrospective cohort study of children aged 6-17 with atopy (ie, moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis and/or persistent asthma, as defined by …
