Understanding Medical Students' Beliefs On Abortion And Sexual Reproduction, Maria Jarkowiec, Seema Kakar, Julia B. Frank, Gisela Butera

Himmelfarb Library Faculty Posters and Presentations

BACKGROUND: As a controversial topic in American society, abortion occupies a precarious place in medical school curricula. Although medical students believe abortion is a valid and acceptable topic, fewer than 20% of U.S. medical schools offer formal abortion education in either the pre-clinical or clinical years. Only 40% provide abortion lectures during clerkships. According to the Association of Professors of Gynecology and Obstetrics, student learning objectives, abortion education should be included at a minimum in the third year core clerkship. In the absence of published curricula, health professional schools must develop their own methods to teach the medical aspects of …

A Coronary Rupture In The Left Anterior Descending Artery At Second Diagonal Artery Bifurcation Level In An Intervention With A Tryton Side Branch Stent, Muhammed Hakan Tas, Ziya Simsek, Yavuzer Koza, Zakir Lazoglu

Journal of the Hong Kong College of Cardiology

Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for bifurcation lesions (BLs) is considered high risk due to increased procedural adverse events when compared to non-bifurcation lesion. Dedicated bifurcation stents, specifically designed to allow minimally traumatic implantation in the main vessel and/or side branch while providing adequate scaffolding of the side branch ostium may offer an advantage over utilization of conventional stents. Coronary perforation as a complication of PCI is a rare but potentially lethal complication that is associated with a high rate of morbidity. Coronary artery perforation during PCI has been reported repeatedly. To our best knowledge perforation in a BL, PCI with …
