Abstract The ongoing global pandemic brought on by the spread of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is having profound effects on human health and well-being. With no viable vaccine presently available and the virus being rapidly transmitted, governments and national health authorities have acted swiftly, recommending ‘lockdown’ policies and/or various levels of social restriction/isolation to attenuate the rate of infection. An immediate consequence of these strategies is reduced...

Abstract Background Chronic exercise training has been shown be to positively associated with executive function (EF) in older adults. However, whether the exercise training effect on EF is affected by moderators including the specific sub-domain of EF, exercise prescription variables, and sample characteristics remains unknown. Objectives This systematic...

Abstract COTI (collar therapy indicator) has been recently introduced for the detection of gamma rays with emphasis on thyroid investigations. The aim of this study was to test the feasibility of a prototype version of COTI including activity detectors with low sensitivity in performing thyroid uptake measurements for a large group of patients. Consequently, thyroid uptake tests were carried out for a total of 89 patients (22 males and 67 females; age: 44 ± 13 years) with thyroid...

Abstract Gamma radiation sterilization is the method used by the majority of tissue banks to reduce disease transmission from infected donors to recipients through bone allografts. However, many studies have reported that gamma radiation impairs the structural and mechanical properties of bone via formation of free radicals, the effect of which could be reduced using free radical scavengers. The aim of this study is to examine the radioprotective role of hydroxytyrosol (HT) and...

Abstract Purpose This study was devised to evaluate the imaging appearances of the interureteric crest (IUC) of the bladder on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The primary objective was to determine how commonly the IUC was observed on pelvic MRI examinations. The secondary objectives were to determine the average size of the IUC, its MRI signal characteristics and whether there is variation between men and women. ...

Abstract The iliacus muscle is a large, flat, triangle-shaped muscle located in the iliac fossa. This muscle forms part of the iliopsoas muscle complex. Although anatomical variations of iliacus muscles are rare, some variations are clinically important due to the possible coexistence of an unusual course of the femoral nerve. The femoral nerve is the largest branch of the lumbar plexus and supplies the muscles and skin in the anterior aspect of the thigh. We encountered a case...

Abstract This article demonstrates the power and flexibility of linear mixed-effects models (LMEMs) to investigate high-density surface electromyography (HD-sEMG) signals. The potentiality of the model is illustrated by investigating the root mean squared value of HD-sEMG signals in the tibialis anterior muscle of healthy (n = 11) and individuals with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (n = 12). We started by presenting the limitations of traditional approaches by building a linear...

Abstract Counting the mitotic cells in histopathological cancerous tissue areas is the most relevant indicator of tumor grade in aggressive breast cancer diagnosis. In this paper, we propose a robust and accurate technique for the automatic detection of mitoses from histological breast cancer slides using the multi-task deep learning framework for object detection and instance segmentation Mask RCNN. Our mitosis detection and instance segmentation framework is deployed for two...

Abstract The emergence and evolution of the complement system and mast cells (MCs) can be traced back to sea urchins and the ascidian Styela plicata, respectively. Acting as a cascade of enzymatic reactions, complement is activated through the classical (CP), the alternative (AP) and the lectin pathway (LP) based on the recognized molecules. The system's main biological functions include lysis, opsonization and recruitment of phagocytes. MCs, beyond their classic role as master cells of allergic...

Abstract Background IgG‐autoantibodiesagainst the high affinity IgE‐receptor,FcεRIα, contribute the pathogenesis of autoimmune chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU). However, it is not known if such patients also exhibit IgM or IgA autoantibodies against FcεRIα. Objectives To develop an ELISAto assess serum levels of IgG, IgM andIgA autoantibodies against FcεRIα, and to investigateif their presence is linked to clinical features of CSU including the response to autologous serum skin testing...

Abstract Objective To summarize evidence on the efficacy and safety of the use of extensively hydrolyzed formulas (EHFs) for the treatment of children with cow's milk allergy (CMA). Design Systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) per PRISMA guidelines. The risk of bias of included RCTs was assessed using the Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool. In general, a narrative synthesis of the findings was performed. When sufficient data were available, a meta‐analysis using...

Food allergy disproportionately affects children (1), with global estimates of prevalence as high as 10% (1). Much attention has focused on the prevention, management and treatment of food allergy (1), commonly through clinical trials, which are used to inform policy and research priorities. However, these studies do not take into account shared decision-making or patient-centered preferences, or account for the underlying dogma that “evidence doesn’t make decisions – people do” (2). To date, there...

Wheezing is common during the preschool years, with nearly 50% of children having at least one episode of wheezing in their first 6 years of life.1 Of those children that wheeze before the age of three, at least 40% continue to wheeze by the age of six. Preschool children with wheezing episodes experience disease-related morbidity, with a 50% higher rate of outpatient visits, nearly twice the rate of emergency department (ED) visits, and nearly 3 times the rate of hospitalization compared to older...

Our understanding of the origin of allergic diseases has increased in recent years, highlighting the importance of microbial dysbiosis and epithelial barrier dysfunction in affected tissues. Exploring the microbial-epithelial-immune crosstalk underlying the mechanisms of allergic diseases will allow the development of novel prevention and treatment strategies of allergic diseases.

When parents are told their child has a life-threatening Immunoglobin E (IgE) mediated food allergy, the unpredictability of allergic reactions and the steep learning curve required to manage this condition can cause significant worry and difficulty coping. There have been attempts to provide resources to families with a food allergy diagnosis using multiple methods, but not all resources have been well-received. Some studies found in person support groups with other parents enhanced learning and...

This study compared heat and moisture exchanger (HME) cassettes to external tracheal humidification (ETH) surrounding MP events. Methods A retrospective comparative cohort study comparing outcomes before/after implementation of a patient safety initiative utilizing HME during post laryngectomy hospitalization. The number of MP events were compared with a pre‐implementation...

Abstract The COVID‐19 epidemic was not the first coronavirus epidemic of this century and represents one of the increasing number of zoonoses from wildlife to impact global health. SARS CoV‐2, the virus causing the COVID‐19 epidemic is distinct from, but closely resembles SARS CoV‐1, which was responsible for the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) outbreak in 2002. SARS CoV‐1 and 2 share almost 80% of genetic sequences and use the same host cell receptor to initiate viral infection. However,...

Abstract Background Survivorship is a critical part of head and neck cancer (HNC) care. In order to design better processes, we assessed care provided to long‐term HNC survivors and their priorities for ongoing care. Methods A survey was provided to HNC survivors at clinic appointments, including our HNC survivorship clinic. Questions focused on priorities for care in the otolaryngology clinic, types of care provided, and opioid use. Results Of 168 respondents, the most common priority...

Abstract Background Diagnosis of Severe Acute Respiratory Coranavirus‐2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) infection is currently based on real‐time PCR (RT‐PCR) performed on either nasopharyngeal (NPS) or oropharyngeal (OPS) swabs; saliva specimen collection can be used, too. Diagnostic accuracy of these procedures is suboptimal, and some procedural mistakes may account for it. Methods and results The video shows how to properly collect secretions from the upper airways for nonserologic diagnosis of COVID‐19...
