3d Bioprinting Technology Innovation In Female Reproductive System, Siyao Chen, Tongxin Wang, Jiaqi Chen, Mingxing Sui, Luyao Wang, Xueyu Zhao, Jianqiao Sun, Yingli Lu

Department of Obstetrics & Gynecology Faculty Publications

Several diseases affect the female reproductive system, and both disease factors and treatments impact its integrity and function. Consequently, understanding the mechanisms of disease occurrence and exploring treatment methods are key research focuses in obstetrics and gynecology. However, constructing accurate disease models requires a microenvironment closely resembling the human body, and current animal models and 2D in vitro cell models fall short in this regard. Thus, innovative in vitro female reproductive system models are urgently needed. Additionally, female reproductive system diseases often cause tissue loss, yet effective tissue repair and regeneration have long been a bottleneck in the medical field. …

'I Did Not Know We Could Exercise This Small Premature Baby': Challenges Experienced By Parents While Implementing Early Intervention For Their Preterm Infants-A Qualitative Perspective, Manasa Kolibylu Raghupathy, Selim Jahangir, Sonia Khurana, Leslie Edward S. Lewis, Bhamini Krishna Rao

Rehabilitation Sciences Faculty Publications

Background

Preterm birth is a highly stressful experience for both parents and infants. Parental participation in care enhances developmental outcomes, fosters parent-infant interactions and builds parental confidence. However, low parental adherence has always been a challenge in the successful implementation of intervention programs both in the NICU and at home. It is imperative to understand parents' perspectives and view the challenges that they experience through their lens while providing early intervention to their infants born preterm. This study is aimed at identifying new parents' challenges when implementing early intervention programs for their infants during the transition from hospital to home. …

Recommendations For Diagnosis And Treatment Of Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea In Females Of Reproductive Age, Monica Foster

Capstone Showcase

Hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA) accounts for approximately 30% of total cases of secondary amenorrhea in women of reproductive age. HA is defined as the absence of menses due to inadequate secretion of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) by the hypothalamus leading to lack of secretion of gonadotropins from the anterior pituitary gland and steroid hormones from the ovaries. This feedback loop, called the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, regulates reproductive activity in animals and humans. When this system is disrupted in females due to a hormonal imbalance, menstrual abnormalities may emerge. Functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA) is defined as the absence of menses in which anatomic …

A Comparison Of Adjuvant Therapy Modality And Treatment Outcomes Between Appalachian And Non-Appalachian Patients With High-Risk Endometrial Carcinoma, Josie D. Llanora, Gregory S. Hawk, Laura M. Harbin, Sara Lee, Madison Lane, Madison T. Hickey, Elizabeth Pendygraft, Lauren Baldwin, Megan L. Hutchcraft

Markey Cancer Center Faculty Publications

Objective: The incidence and mortality of endometrial cancer is increasing. After surgical staging, patients with high-risk disease often undergo adjuvant treatment, which may include systemic therapy, radiation therapy, or combined modalities. Patients in rural Appalachia have limited access to subspecialty care needed for optimal disease management. This study aims to compare adjuvant treatment regimens and outcomes among patients with high-risk endometrial cancer living in Appalachian and non-Appalachian regions.

Methods: We retrospectively identified 179 patients with high-risk endometrial carcinoma who underwent surgical staging at a single academic medical center and received adjuvant therapy between 2012 and 2019. Patients were identified as …

Interobserver Variability Regarding Adequacy Of Oropharyngeal Exposure For Transoral Robotic Surgery May Necessitate Staging Endoscopy: Evaluating Tors Exposure, Colleen Schinderle, Kevin J. Carlson, Reem Sharaf Alddin, Jeffery J. Houlton, Matthew J. Bak, Daniel W. Karakla, Jonathan R. Mark

Department of Otolaryngology (ENT) Faculty Publications

[First paragraph] Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer has become centered at tertiary referral centers. To avoid treatment delays or multiple anesthetics, the need for repeat operative endoscopy may be questioned when the diagnosis has been made at an outside institution. However, inadequate visualization of relevant anatomy can preclude TORS candidacy and may lead to procedure abortion or conversion to an open technique.²,³ To evaluate this dilemma, we explored the ability to assess oropharyngeal exposure for TORS candidacy via operative endoscopic photo-documentation.

Comparison of Transversus Abdominis Plane Block versus Intrathecal Clonidine in Lower Segment Caesarean Section - A Prospective Observational Study

Background and Objective: In the majority of abdominal procedures, transverse abdominis plane block, one of the fascial plane blocks, has been used extensively to treat post-operative pain. Ultrasound has gained popularity in the management of cesarean patients due to its ease of use and reduced adverse effects.To assess the effectiveness of ultrasound guided transverse abdominus plane block with intrathecal clonidine for post surgical pain control in lower segment cesarean patients.

Material and Methods: This prospective observational study was done in …
