Satoru Sakuragi, Nobuhisa Kodera, Toshihiro Iida, Takashi Yamada, Mitsutaka Nakashima, Atsushi Mori, Yuji Koide, Tadashi Wada, Kenji Kawamoto, Machiko Tanakaya and Yusuke Katayama

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: November 01, 2019

Recent reports have indicated a marked impairment of physical function in patients with acute cardiac disease. In addition, further deterioration in physical activity has been found during hospitalization especially in elderly patients, which may be associated with poor outcome after discharge. In this study, we repeatedly measured gait speed (GS) during hospitalization and evaluated the association of change in GS with mortality after discharge. From January 2015 to October 2017, we enrolled 44...

Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease: Prevalence and Associated Factors in Cameroon

Hermine Danielle Fouda Menye, Gilles Wandji, Francois F Kaze, Denis G Teuwafeu, Yaya Kane, Marie Patrice Halle, Maimouna Mahamat, Hilaire Djantio and Gloria Ashuntantang

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: October 31, 2019

Studies in Cameroon reported high prevalence of urinary abnormalities in sickle cell anemia (SCA). There is a lack of data in this setting on the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in SCA and Sickle cell trait (SCT). This was a cross-sectional study of six months durations (April-September 2017) involving SCA (HB SS) and SCT (HBAS) subjects at Douala Laquintinie hospital. CKD was diagnosed and classified according to 2012 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria. Only pa...

Validity of Two High-Incline VO2max Protocols for College- Aged Population

DE Lankford, FACSM, Jake T Bartschi, Keegan Huntsman, Lex Gidley, Tyler Hook and Yilin Wu

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: November 04, 2019

The aim of the study is to validate two high-incline Graded Exercise Tests (GXT) that could be used as alternatives to the Bruce protocol to obtain VO2max values for college-aged individuals who may not be accustomed to running on a treadmill. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) assesses the upper limit of an individual's ability to consume and utilize oxygen during intense, or maximal exercise, commonly accepted as a reliable indicator of cardiorespiratory health. Among all the existing protocols, G...

Age and Incidence of Pharyngeal Candidiasis in Patients Undergoing Bronchoscopy

Victor Omiwole, Sardar Ali and Junaid Ali

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: November 09, 2019

Candidiasis is a type of fungal infection that often spreads to the skin, mouth, throat, esophagus, and vagina. It is caused by the build-up of yeast called Candida. There are multiple types of Candida that can be infective agents, with C. albicans being the most prevalent. When it spreads to the mouth and throat, it is called thrush or otherwise known as Oropharyngeal Candidiasis. In this retrospective study, the frequency of candidiasis in the throat (pharyngeal), was examined exclusively in 1...

A Rare Cause of Respiratory Distress in Infants: Double Aortic Arch

Tolga Bacak, Sebnem Ozdogan, Seda Geylani Gulec and Evrim Ozmen

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: October 21, 2019

Vascular ring, which is a rare cause of respiratory distress in infants, results in respiratory and gastrointestinal findings due to tracheal and/or esophageal compression, but the diagnosis may be delayed because of the nonspecific symptoms. Double aortic arch is the most common vascular ring anomaly. A case of double aortic arch presented with respiratory distress, stridor, and feeding intolerance during infancy is discussed. Vascular ring is seen with an incidence of 1% in all congenital card...

Correlation of Pathologic and Radiologic Complete Response in the Axilla after Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer

Jessica C Gooch, MD, Timothy Borjas, MD, Jennifer Chun, MPH, Elianna Kaplowitz, MPH, Amber Guth, MD, Deborah Axelrod, MD, Richard Shapiro, MD, Linda Moy, MD and Freya Schnabel, MD

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: November 08, 2019

Accurate assessment of locoregional response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is important for surgical planning, particularly in regard to management of the axilla. We evaluated the correlation between radiologic complete response (rCR) in the axilla on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and the likelihood of pathologic complete response (pCR) at the time of breast cancer surgery following NAC. Our institutional database was queried for patients who underwent NAC from 2010-2016 and had a preand ...

Study on the Variations of Image Density Index of MDCT for Healthy Lungs

Won-Bin Cha, Sok-Chan Yun, Chan-Ung Ri and Chol-Ho Chang

Article Type: Original Article | First Published: October 21, 2019

We selected several image density indices to establish CAD for prediction of biopsy in lung diseases. Our results suggested that significant difference was not observed in the image density indices between bilateral lungs at each slice level. Our own designed image indices may be reliable parameters in the establishment of CAD system and pathologic diagnosis for lung disease. There has been a rapid progress in the modality of CT since it was developed by Mr. Hounsfield. The earlier CT had been u...

Vivek Sood, Raja Ramachandran, Rakesh Kumar Pilania, Arun Prabhakar, Neeraj Inamdar, Navin Pattanashetti, Vibhu Joshi, Madhubala Sharma, Amit Rawat, HS Kohli and KL Gupta

Article Type: Case Report | First Published: October 28, 2019

Cryptococcosis particularly if disseminated or extrapulmonary, in an otherwise immune-competent individual, especially if young, requires thorough evaluation for underlying primary immunodeficiency including Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD). In this context, we describe an adolescent diagnosed with disseminated cryptococcosis involving skin, lymph nodes, spleen and hepato-biliary involvement with reduced IL-12β1 receptor expression suggesting underlying MSMD. Following i...
