Our patient population includes patients eligible for open surgical repair and those with prohibitive surgical risk. Methods: From March 1998 to March 2006, endovascular stent repair of the thoracic aorta was performed on 406 patients with 324 patients (median age 72; 200 male) receiving the Gore Excluder endograft. Patient demographics, procedural characteristics, complications, including endoleak, spinal cord ischemia, and mortality, were retrospectively reviewed during follow-up. All patients were followed with chest computer tomography at 6 months and yearly. Statistical analysis was performed utilizing the SPSS Windows 11.0 program. Logistic regression (univariate) analysis used to identify risk factors for paraplegia; analysis of variance (ANOVA) for endoleak distribution; and 2 used to analyze variables. Survival analysis was done using SAS version 9.1 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC). Results: Three hundred twenty-four patients were treated with Gore Excluder graft between March 1998 and March 2006. One hundred fifty-seven patients (48.5%) had atherosclerotic aneurysms, 82 (25.3%) had dissections type B (DTB), 34 (10.5%) had penetrating ulcers (PU), 26 (8.0%) with pseudoaneurysms (PSA), 11 (3.4%) had transections (MVAT), 9 (2.8%) aorto-bronchial fistulas (AoBF), 4 (1.2%) embolization, and 1 (0.3%) aorto-esophageal fistula (AoEF). Preoperative aneurysm sac size in TAA ranged from 5 to 12 centimeters, average size 6.3 cm. Sac shrinkage occurred in 65% (102 of 157) of patients.

Our patient population includes patients eligible for open surgical repair and those with prohibitive surgical risk. Methods: From March 1998 to March 2006, endovascular stent repair of the thoracic aorta was performed on 406 patients with 324 patients (median age 72; 200 male) receiving the Gore Excluder endograft. Patient demographics, procedural characteristics, complications, including endoleak, spinal cord ischemia, and mortality, were retrospectively reviewed during follow-up. All patients were followed with chest computer tomography at 6 months and yearly. Statistical analysis was performed utilizing the SPSS Windows 11.0 program. Logistic regression (univariate) analysis used to identify risk factors for paraplegia; analysis of variance (ANOVA) for endoleak distribution; and 2 used to analyze variables. Survival analysis was done using SAS version 9.1 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC). Results: Three hundred twenty-four patients were treated with Gore Excluder graft between March 1998 and March 2006. One hundred fifty-seven patients (48.5%) had atherosclerotic aneurysms, 82 (25.3%) had dissections type B (DTB), 34 (10.5%) had penetrating ulcers (PU), 26 (8.0%) with pseudoaneurysms (PSA), 11 (3.4%) had transections (MVAT), 9 (2.8%) aorto-bronchial fistulas (AoBF), 4 (1.2%) embolization, and 1 (0.3%) aorto-esophageal fistula (AoEF). Preoperative aneurysm sac size in TAA ranged from 5 to 12 centimeters, average size 6.3 cm. Sac shrinkage occurred in 65% (102 of 157) of patients. Average postoperative sac size of 5.4 cm in a mean follow-up of 20.4 months. One hundred cases (31.5%) were nonelective; 49 (15.1%) were ruptures. Overall complication was 22.7%, 14.2% (46) in elective cases and 8.5% (28) in nonelective cases.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":44851387,"asset_id":24519983,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":33098087,"first_name":"Grayson","last_name":"Wheatley","domain_name":"temple","page_name":"GraysonWheatley","display_name":"Grayson Wheatley","profile_url":"https://temple.academia.edu/GraysonWheatley?f_ri=137516","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/33098087/12473525/13881272/s65_grayson.wheatley.jpg"},{"id":43285029,"first_name":"Dawn","last_name":"Olsen","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"DawnOlsen","display_name":"Dawn Olsen","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/DawnOlsen?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"},{"id":47476740,"first_name":"Leonardo","last_name":"Aquiar-Lucas","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"LeonardoAquiarLucas","display_name":"Leonardo Aquiar-Lucas","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/LeonardoAquiarLucas?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":12426,"name":"Treatment Outcome","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Treatment_Outcome?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":25398,"name":"Vascular Surgery","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Vascular_Surgery?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":137516,"name":"Follow-up studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Follow-up_studies?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":228722,"name":"Vascular","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Vascular?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":289271,"name":"Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Aged?f_ri=137516"},{"id":424295,"name":"Survival Rate","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Survival_Rate?f_ri=137516"},{"id":469105,"name":"Retrospective Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Retrospective_Studies?f_ri=137516"},{"id":715808,"name":"prosthesis Design","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/prosthesis_Design?f_ri=137516"},{"id":959921,"name":"X ray Computed Tomography","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/X_ray_Computed_Tomography?f_ri=137516"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_13559571" data-work_id="13559571" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/13559571/Oral_cleft_prevention_program_OCPP_">Oral cleft prevention program (OCPP)</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Background: Oral clefts are one of the most common birth defects with significant medical, psychosocial, and economic ramifications.

Oral clefts have a complex etiology with genetic and environmental risk factors. There are suggestive results for decreased risks of cleft occurrence and recurrence with folic acid supplements taken at preconception and during pregnancy with a stronger evidence for higher than lower doses in preventing recurrence. Yet previous studies have suffered from considerable design limitations particularly non-randomization into treatment. There is also well-documented effectiveness for folic acid in preventing neural tube defect occurrence at 0.4 mg and recurrence with 4 mg. Given the substantial burden of clefting on the individual and the family and the supportive data for the effectiveness of folic acid supplementation as well as its low cost, a randomized clinical trial of the effectiveness of high versus low dose folic acid for prevention of cleft recurrence is warranted. Methods/design: This study will assess the effect of 4 mg and 0.4 mg doses of folic acid, taken on a daily basis during preconception and up to 3 months of pregnancy by women who are at risk of having a child with nonsyndromic cleft lip with/without palate (NSCL/P), on the recurrence of NSCL/P. The total sample will include about 6,000 women (that either have NSCL/P or that have at least one child with NSCL/P) randomly assigned to the 4 mg and the 0.4 mg folic acid study groups. The study will also compare the recurrence rates of NSCL/P in the total sample of subjects, as well as the two study groups (4mg, 0.4 mg) to that of a historical control group. The study has been approved by IRBs (ethics committees) of all involved sites. Results will be disseminated through publications and presentations at scientific meetings.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/13559571" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="f790ed734269b8b09f4f70cad8d139fe" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":45215838,"asset_id":13559571,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/45215838/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="32744830" href="https://independent.academia.edu/HrishikeshChakraborty">Hrishikesh Chakraborty</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="32744830" type="text/json">{"id":32744830,"first_name":"Hrishikesh","last_name":"Chakraborty","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"HrishikeshChakraborty","display_name":"Hrishikesh Chakraborty","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/HrishikeshChakraborty?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_13559571 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="13559571"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 13559571, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_13559571", });

Choline is essential for neurodevelopment and brain function. We studied the associations between cognitive function and plasma concentrations of free choline and betaine. In a cross-sectional study, 2195 subjects (55 % women), aged 70-74 years, underwent extensive cognitive testing including the Kendrick Object Learning Test (KOLT), Trail Making Test (part A, TMT-A), modified versions of the Digit Symbol Test (m-DST), Block Design (m-BD), Mini-Mental State Examination (m-MMSE) and Controlled Oral Word Association Test (COWAT). Compared with low concentrations, high choline (.8·4 mmol/l) was associated with better test scores in the TMT-A (56·0 v. 61·5, P¼ 0·004), m-DST (10·5 v. 9·8, P¼ 0·005) and m-MMSE (11·5 v. 11·4, P¼ 0·01). A generalised additive regression model showed a positive dose -response relationship between the m-MMSE and choline (P¼0·012 from a corresponding linear regression model). Betaine was associated with the KOLT, TMT-A and COWAT, but after adjustments for potential confounders, the associations lost significance. Risk ratios (RR) for poor test performance roughly tripled when low choline was combined with either low plasma vitamin B 12 (# 257 pmol/l) concentrations (RR KOLT ¼ 2·6, 95 % CI 1·1, 6·1; RR m-MMSE ¼ 2·7, 95 % CI 1·1, 6·6; RR COWAT ¼ 3·1, 95 % CI 1·4, 7·2) or high methylmalonic acid (MMA) ($3·95 mmol/l) concentrations (RR m-BD ¼ 2·8, 95 % CI 1·3, 6·1). Low betaine (# 31·1 mmol/l) combined with high MMA was associated with elevated RR on KOLT (RR KOLT ¼ 2·5, 95 % CI 1·0, 6·2). Low plasma free choline concentrations are associated with poor cognitive performance. There were significant interactions between low choline or betaine and low vitamin B 12 or high MMA on cognitive performance.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/14850025" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="ce19a58a96f7f6982d7f006aff741c89" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":43844826,"asset_id":14850025,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/43844826/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="33816925" href="https://uib.academia.edu/IngvarBjelland">Ingvar Bjelland</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="33816925" type="text/json">{"id":33816925,"first_name":"Ingvar","last_name":"Bjelland","domain_name":"uib","page_name":"IngvarBjelland","display_name":"Ingvar Bjelland","profile_url":"https://uib.academia.edu/IngvarBjelland?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_14850025 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="14850025"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 14850025, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_14850025", });

DESIGN: Randomized, controlled trial with follow-up through 52 weeks postindex hospital discharge. SETTING: Six Philadelphia academic and community hospitals. PARTICIPANTS: Two hundred thirty-nine eligible patients were aged 65 and older and hospitalized with heart failure. INTERVENTION: A 3-month APN-directed discharge planning and home follow-up protocol. MEASUREMENTS: Time to first rehospitalization or death, number of rehospitalizations, quality of life, functional status, costs, and satisfaction with care. RESULTS: Mean age of patients (control n 5 121; intervention n 5 118) enrolled was 76; 43% were male, and 36% were African American.

INTERVENTION: A 3-month APN-directed discharge planning and home follow-up protocol. MEASUREMENTS: Time to first rehospitalization or death, number of rehospitalizations, quality of life, functional status, costs, and satisfaction with care. RESULTS: Mean age of patients (control n 5 121; intervention n 5 118) enrolled was 76; 43% were male, and 36% were African American.

The aim of this study was to investigate the role of leptin, ghrelin and obestatin as diagnostic and predictive markers of cachexia in oncologic patients. Their impact on patient survival was also evaluated. Methods: 140 adults with different cancer diagnoses were recruited. Thirty healthy volunteers served as control. Serum ghrelin, obestatin and leptin were tested at baseline and after a follow-up period of 18 months. Results: Ghrelin levels were significantly higher in cancer patients than in healthy subjects (573.31 ± 130 vs 320.20 ± 66.48 ng/ml, p < 0.0001), while obestatin (17.42 ± 7.12 vs 24.89 ± 5.54 ng/ml, p < 0.0001) and leptin (38.4 ± 21.2 vs 76.28 ± 17.48 ng/ml, p < 0.0001) values were lower. At ROC analyses the diagnostic profile of ghrelin (AUC 0.962; sensitivity 83%; specificity 98%), obestatin (AUC 0.798; sensitivity 74.5%; specificity 81.5%) and leptin (AUC 0.828; sensitivity 79%; specificity 73%) was superior to that of albumin (AUC 0.547; sensitivity 63%, specificity 69.4%) for detecting cachexia among cancer patients. On Cox multivariate analyses ghrelin (HR 1.02; 95% CI 1.01 -1.03; p < 0.0001) and leptin (HR 0.94; 95% CI 0.92 -0.96; p < 0.0001) were significant predictors of death even after correction for other known risk factors such as presence of metastasis and chronic kidney disease. Conclusion: Ghrelin and leptin are promising biomarkers to diagnose cachexia and to predict survival in cancer patients.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/23281770" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="e03d122bbab92b45c069a9c8db7c0919" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":43751435,"asset_id":23281770,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/43751435/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="45162731" href="https://unime.academia.edu/SMondello">Stefania Mondello</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="45162731" type="text/json">{"id":45162731,"first_name":"Stefania","last_name":"Mondello","domain_name":"unime","page_name":"SMondello","display_name":"Stefania Mondello","profile_url":"https://unime.academia.edu/SMondello?f_ri=137516","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/45162731/28977264/27032638/s65_stefania.mondello.jpg"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_23281770 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="23281770"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 23281770, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_23281770", });

The aim of this study is to evaluate the evolution of dumping symptoms during the first postoperative year. Methods Twenty-five non-diabetic morbidly obese patients (6 male, 19 female) were evaluated with an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) preoperatively, at 6 weeks and at 6 months postoperatively. In addition, 12 of them repeated the OGTT at 12 months after LSG. Sigstad score was used to separate dumpers from non-dumpers and Arts' questionnaire to differentiate between early and late dumping. Insulin and glucose levels were also measured. Results Sigstad score remained significantly elevated at 6 and 12 months postoperatively compared to preoperative values. Symptoms suggestive of dumping syndrome were recorded in 40 % of patients at 6 months and in 33 % at 12 months postoperatively.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the evolution of dumping symptoms during the first postoperative year. Methods Twenty-five non-diabetic morbidly obese patients (6 male, 19 female) were evaluated with an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) preoperatively, at 6 weeks and at 6 months postoperatively. In addition, 12 of them repeated the OGTT at 12 months after LSG. Sigstad score was used to separate dumpers from non-dumpers and Arts' questionnaire to differentiate between early and late dumping. Insulin and glucose levels were also measured. Results Sigstad score remained significantly elevated at 6 and 12 months postoperatively compared to preoperative values. Symptoms suggestive of dumping syndrome were recorded in 40 % of patients at 6 months and in 33 % at 12 months postoperatively. Arts' questionnaire demonstrated that early dumping score remained higher compared to baseline at 6 and 12 months postoperatively. Late dumping scores increased gradually during the time and that difference was statistically significant at 12 months after LSG. Hypoglycaemia occurred at 33 % of patients both at 6 and 12 months postoperatively.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":39610981,"asset_id":17608961,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":37453581,"first_name":"Dimitris","last_name":"Zacharoulis","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"DimitrisZacharoulis","display_name":"Dimitris Zacharoulis","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/DimitrisZacharoulis?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":12426,"name":"Treatment Outcome","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Treatment_Outcome?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":116895,"name":"Hypoglycemia","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hypoglycemia?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":137516,"name":"Follow-up studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Follow-up_studies?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":174502,"name":"Incidence","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Incidence?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":192564,"name":"Body Mass Index","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Body_Mass_Index?f_ri=137516"},{"id":202574,"name":"Feeding Behavior","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Feeding_Behavior?f_ri=137516"},{"id":218811,"name":"Obesity Surgery","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Obesity_Surgery?f_ri=137516"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences?f_ri=137516"},{"id":327850,"name":"Questionnaires","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Questionnaires?f_ri=137516"},{"id":410370,"name":"Public health systems and services research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Public_health_systems_and_services_research-1?f_ri=137516"},{"id":413195,"name":"Time Factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Time_Factors?f_ri=137516"},{"id":901298,"name":"Glucose Tolerance Test","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Glucose_Tolerance_Test?f_ri=137516"},{"id":1229542,"name":"Laparoscopy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Laparoscopy?f_ri=137516"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_24218485" data-work_id="24218485" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/24218485/The_Purse_String_Reinforced_SMASectomy_Short_Scar_Facelift">The Purse-String Reinforced SMASectomy Short Scar Facelift</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/24218485" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="5c5deb0baee924509f84e363ee2516db" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":44548893,"asset_id":24218485,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/44548893/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="46673549" href="https://umcg.academia.edu/BerendvanderLei">Berend van der Lei</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="46673549" type="text/json">{"id":46673549,"first_name":"Berend van der","last_name":"Lei","domain_name":"umcg","page_name":"BerendvanderLei","display_name":"Berend van der Lei","profile_url":"https://umcg.academia.edu/BerendvanderLei?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_24218485 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="24218485"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 24218485, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_24218485", });

Malformations are of special interest nowadays, as the indication for cochlear implant surgery is expanding. Inner-ear malformations constitute about 20% of congenital sensorineural hearing loss. 1 In a retrospective evaluation, we found 12% malformations in children and 3% malformations in adults. 2 In 1987, Jackler 1 presented a classification of inner-ear malformations, based on the embryological genesis. Sennaroglu and Saatci 3 suggested an extension, based on the initial classification. The basic classification distinguishes malformations of the cochlea and vestibular labyrinth, and additionally abnormalities of the internal auditory canal (IAC). This classification provides an excellent basis for detecting malformations of the inner ear. Nevertheless, it must be expanded to include malformations due to syndromes, which, in their complexity, are not simple to classify, for example innerear malformations in Mondini dysplasia, CHARGE-syndrome and X-linked deafness syndrome. We used these classifications in 29 patients as a basis for a newly developed flow chart which enabled us to preoperatively calculate adaptation of the surgical procedure according to the extent of the malformations. The description of our flow chart is based on two patients with complex malformations of the labyrinth.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/27976060" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="ddb0965691b9ba7e8555e56005bc71c5" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":48278965,"asset_id":27976060,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/48278965/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="32519027" href="https://independent.academia.edu/RolandLaszig">Roland Laszig</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="32519027" type="text/json">{"id":32519027,"first_name":"Roland","last_name":"Laszig","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"RolandLaszig","display_name":"Roland Laszig","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/RolandLaszig?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_27976060 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="27976060"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 27976060, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_27976060", });

Malformations are of special interest nowadays, as the indication for cochlear implant surgery is expanding. Inner-ear malformations constitute about 20% of congenital sensorineural hearing loss. 1 In a retrospective evaluation, we found 12% malformations in children and 3% malformations in adults. 2 In 1987, Jackler 1 presented a classification of inner-ear malformations, based on the embryological genesis. Sennaroglu and Saatci 3 suggested an extension, based on the initial classification. The basic classification distinguishes malformations of the cochlea and vestibular labyrinth, and additionally abnormalities of the internal auditory canal (IAC). This classification provides an excellent basis for detecting malformations of the inner ear. Nevertheless, it must be expanded to include malformations due to syndromes, which, in their complexity, are not simple to classify, for example innerear malformations in Mondini dysplasia, CHARGE-syndrome and X-linked deafness syndrome. We used these classifications in 29 patients as a basis for a newly developed flow chart which enabled us to preoperatively calculate adaptation of the surgical procedure according to the extent of the malformations. The description of our flow chart is based on two patients with complex malformations of the labyrinth.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":48278965,"asset_id":27976060,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":32519027,"first_name":"Roland","last_name":"Laszig","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"RolandLaszig","display_name":"Roland

In our retrospective cohort analysis, we reviewed the records of 3,803 blunt traumatic brain injury patients during a 4-year period. We classified patients according to neurologic examination results, use of intoxicants, anticoagulation status, and initial head CT findings. We then developed brain injury guidelines (BIG) based on the individual patient&#39;s need for observation or hospitalization, RHCT, or neurosurgical consultation.

The purpose of this study was to define guidelines-based on each patient\u0026#39;s history, physical examination, and initial head CT findings-regarding which patients require a period of observation, RHCT, or neurosurgical consultation. In our retrospective cohort analysis, we reviewed the records of 3,803 blunt traumatic brain injury patients during a 4-year period. We classified patients according to neurologic examination results, use of intoxicants, anticoagulation status, and initial head CT findings. We then developed brain injury guidelines (BIG) based on the individual patient\u0026#39;s need for observation or hospitalization, RHCT, or neurosurgical consultation. A total of 1,232 patients had an abnormal head CT finding.

Vast research literature has documented high rates of psychiatric disorders in patients with CSDs. Psychotropic medications are one type of effective treatment for these disorders. Many medications of this type are also used as adjuvants to primary analgesic medications. PURPOSE: Physicians treating CSDs may have little training and experience in prescribing psychotropic medications. Further, they may possess limited information about the efficacy of these types of medications in treating psychiatric disorders comorbid with CSDs or as adjunctive analgesics. Because of the wide variety (antidepressants, anxiolytics, sleep-promoting agents, anticonvulsants, neuroleptics, muscle relaxants) and numerous indications for psychiatric medications, a concise review of the use of psychotropic medications with CSD patients is offered for the spine specialist. STUDY DESIGN: A systematic review of the contemporary English literature on psychotropic medications in the CSD population. METHODS: A computerized search of MEDLINE was performed on all English literature published from 1982 to August 2002. RESULTS: Psychotropic medications have been found to be very efficacious in the large subgroup of patients with CSDs with psychiatric comorbidity, particularly patients with the common constellation of depression, anxiety, excessive somatic complaints, insomnia and irritability. Although the type of medication indicated depends on the particular psychiatric syndrome(s), antidepressants have been found to be extremely useful with the constellation described above. There is less evidence to support the use of nonopioid psychotropic medications in the treatment of nociceptive pain, although clinical experience indicates that some individuals demonstrate a marked analgesic response. Research support for the efficacy of particular psychotropic medications in treating neuropathic pain is stronger, although more controlled research is clearly needed. CONCLUSIONS: Psychotropic medications are extremely useful in the treatment of psychiatric disorders comorbid with CSDs and modestly useful as analgesic adjuvants, particularly with pain of neuropathic etiology. Familiarity with these medications will aid the primary treating physician in optimizing outcomes in this difficult group of patients.

Forty-five patients in the study group received concentrated bone marrow-derived MSCs as an adjunct to single-row rotator cuff repair at the time of arthroscopy. The average number of MSCs returned to the patient was 51,000 ± 25,000. Outcomes of patients receiving MSCs during their repair were compared to those of a matched control group of 45 patients who did not receive MSCs. All patients underwent imaging studies of the shoulder with iterative ultrasound performed every month from the first postoperative month to the 24th month.

The prevalence of healing and prevention of re-tears were correlated with the number of MSCs received at the tendon-to-bone interface. Forty-five patients in the study group received concentrated bone marrow-derived MSCs as an adjunct to single-row rotator cuff repair at the time of arthroscopy. The average number of MSCs returned to the patient was 51,000 ± 25,000. Outcomes of patients receiving MSCs during their repair were compared to those of a matched control group of 45 patients who did not receive MSCs. All patients underwent imaging studies of the shoulder with iterative ultrasound performed every month from the first postoperative month to the 24th month. The rotator cuff healing or re-tear was confirmed with MRI postoperatively at three and six months, one and two years and at the most recent follow up ...","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":41233346,"asset_id":20046068,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":40992638,"first_name":"Sébastien","last_name":"Zilber","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"SébastienZilber","display_name":"Sébastien Zilber","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/S%C3%A9bastienZilber?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":6200,"name":"Magnetic Resonance Imaging","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Magnetic_Resonance_Imaging?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":8991,"name":"Wound Healing","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Wound_Healing?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":12155,"name":"Tendon and Ligament injuries","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Tendon_and_Ligament_injuries?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":12426,"name":"Treatment Outcome","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Treatment_Outcome?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":38237,"name":"Bone Regeneration","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Bone_Regeneration?f_ri=137516"},{"id":43934,"name":"Orthopaedics","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Orthopaedics?f_ri=137516"},{"id":82854,"name":"Rotator cuff","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Rotator_cuff?f_ri=137516"},{"id":118122,"name":"Arthroscopy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Arthroscopy?f_ri=137516"},{"id":137516,"name":"Follow-up studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Follow-up_studies?f_ri=137516"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences?f_ri=137516"},{"id":289271,"name":"Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Aged?f_ri=137516"},{"id":289330,"name":"Prevalence","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prevalence?f_ri=137516"},{"id":413195,"name":"Time Factors","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Time_Factors?f_ri=137516"},{"id":1819399,"name":"Case Control Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Case_Control_Studies?f_ri=137516"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_15674986" data-work_id="15674986" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/15674986/Pre_loss_symptoms_related_to_risk_of_complicated_grief_in_caregivers_of_terminally_ill_cancer_patients">Pre-loss symptoms related to risk of complicated grief in caregivers of terminally ill cancer patients</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Purpose: A number of studies have underlined a 10-20% prevalence of complicated grief (CG) among caregivers of cancer patients.

The study aimed at examining the relationship between pre-loss criteria for CG and post-loss diagnosis of CG and at evaluating the validity and factor structure of a predictive tool, the Inventory of Complicated Grief (ICG), in order to identify the risk of developing CG in a sample of Italian caregivers. Methods: Sixty family members of terminally ill patients admitted to hospice and receiving a Palliative Prognostic Score (PaP) predictive 30 day survival time o30% completed the Pre-Death ICG (ICG-PL) (T0). Family members were met again 6 months after the death of their loved one (T1) and submitted to the interview for Complicated Grief (Post-loss interview-PLI). Results: Caseness for CG was shown in 18.3% of caregivers at T1. ICG-PL score (T0) were higher among those who developed CG at T1 than non-cases. A cut off score Z49 on the ICG-PL (AUC ¼ 0.98) maximized sensitivity (92%) and specificity (98%) on caseness at T1. Pre-loss criteria related to traumatic distress, separation distress and emotional symptoms in general were significantly related to a post-loss diagnosis of CG, while no effect was shown on duration of pre-loss distress. Conclusions: The use of short screening tools, like the ICG-PL, may help health care professionals to identify subjects at risk for CG.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/15674986" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="ba81d4f6c198c35fe91b790120260098" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":42979689,"asset_id":15674986,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/42979689/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="34861339" href="https://independent.academia.edu/GrassiLuigi">Luigi Grassi</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="34861339" type="text/json">{"id":34861339,"first_name":"Luigi","last_name":"Grassi","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"GrassiLuigi","display_name":"Luigi Grassi","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/GrassiLuigi?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_15674986 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="15674986"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 15674986, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_15674986", });

This prospective study was aimed at evaluating the clinical state of the patients and the degree of patency of grafts within 16 months of follow-up. All 80 patients who underwent the Y procedure between January 1988 and January 1992 were included. This group represented 10% of the 840 patients having coronary bypass during the same period. A total of 202 coronary anastomoses were performed in this series. Early postoperative (30 days) complications included three deaths (3.75%), eight myocardial infarctions (10%), one case of phrenic nerve paralysis (1.25%), two cases of respiratory failure (2.5%), and six wound infections (7.5%). At 3 months' follow-up, 96% of patients were free of symptoms. During the follow-up period, four patients died of noncardiac causes (lung, pancreatic, and brain cancer and rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm). At 1 year, 71 patients were free of symptoms (97%). Sixty-one patients underwent coronary angiography between 12 and 24 months. Six patients with peripheral arterial disease were not suitable for coronary angiography, and six refused to be tested. These 12 patients had normal thallium test results in the bypassed area (stress or dipyridamole test). The patency rate of the left internal thoracic artery was 98.3% (n = 60), occlusion rate 1.6% (n = 1), and incidence of threadlike arteries 4.9% (n = 3). Thus the rate of perfect patency was 93.4%. The patency rate of the right internal thoracic artery as a free graft was 93.4% (n = 57), occlusion rate 6.5% (n = 4), and the incidence of threadlike arteries 8% (n = 5). Thus the rate of perfect patency was 85.2%. A total of 169 anastomoses were studied. The rate of patency of the anastomoses to the left anterior descending coronary artery was 96% (n = 58) and the occlusion rate, 4% (n = 2). The patency rate of sequential anastomoses (side to side) to diagonal arteries was 100% (n = 16). Patency rate of anastomoses to obtuse marginal arteries was 95% (n = 58) and the rate of occlusion, 4.9% (n = 3). The patency rate of anastomoses to the posterior descending artery or distal branches of the right coronary artery was 80% (n = 4/5). We conclude that the Y procedure is a ~safe technique with an acceptable morbidity and a good patency rate. This procedure can be used when the in situ technique is not possible because of far-reaching distal marginal coronary arteries.

This prospective study was aimed at evaluating the clinical state of the patients and the degree of patency of grafts within 16 months of follow-up. All 80 patients who underwent the Y procedure between January 1988 and January 1992 were included. This group represented 10% of the 840 patients having coronary bypass during the same period. A total of 202 coronary anastomoses were performed in this series. Early postoperative (30 days) complications included three deaths (3.75%), eight myocardial infarctions (10%), one case of phrenic nerve paralysis (1.25%), two cases of respiratory failure (2.5%), and six wound infections (7.5%). At 3 months' follow-up, 96% of patients were free of symptoms. During the follow-up period, four patients died of noncardiac causes (lung, pancreatic, and brain cancer and rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm). At 1 year, 71 patients were free of symptoms (97%). Sixty-one patients underwent coronary angiography between 12 and 24 months. Six patients with peripheral arterial disease were not suitable for coronary angiography, and six refused to be tested. These 12 patients had normal thallium test results in the bypassed area (stress or dipyridamole test). The patency rate of the left internal thoracic artery was 98.3% (n = 60), occlusion rate 1.6% (n = 1), and incidence of threadlike arteries 4.9% (n = 3). Thus the rate of perfect patency was 93.4%. The patency rate of the right internal thoracic artery as a free graft was 93.4% (n = 57), occlusion rate 6.5% (n = 4), and the incidence of threadlike arteries 8% (n = 5). Thus the rate of perfect patency was 85.2%. A total of 169 anastomoses were studied. The rate of patency of the anastomoses to the left anterior descending coronary artery was 96% (n = 58) and the occlusion rate, 4% (n = 2). The patency rate of sequential anastomoses (side to side) to diagonal arteries was 100% (n = 16). Patency rate of anastomoses to obtuse marginal arteries was 95% (n = 58) and the rate of occlusion, 4.9% (n = 3). The patency rate of anastomoses to the posterior descending artery or distal branches of the right coronary artery was 80% (n = 4/5). We conclude that the Y procedure is a ~safe technique with an acceptable morbidity and a good patency rate. This procedure can be used when the in situ technique is not possible because of far-reaching distal marginal coronary arteries.

Most of the authors' patients want a cosmetic improvement but not at the cost of prolonged disfigurement or a high risk of complications. In 1999, a very simple but effective rhytidectomy technique, termed an S-lift, was described in the literature and was adopted by the authors. Its basic principle is the suspension of sagging facial features by a strong, permanent purse-string suture. The procedure is performed with the patient under local anesthesia. Significant modifications were applied to the incision, to the purse-string suture anchoring site, and to the direction and shape of the skin excision. The authors named the modified procedure the minimal access cranial suspension lift to specifically describe the concept of the technique. Through an inverted L-shaped preauricular incision with extension below the sideburn, a limited skin undermining is performed. Two strong, permanent purse-string sutures are woven into the superficial musculoaponeurotic system tissues in a vertical U and an oblique O shape, initiating from a strong anchorage in the deep temporal fascia at the level of the helical crus. Tying these sutures produces a very powerful vertical correction of descended facial features that acts mainly on the jowls and the upper neck. The procedure can be extended by continuing the dissection over the malar fat pad, placing a third vertical purse-string suture with strong action on the nasolabial groove, and vertically repositioning the midfacial volumes. During 20 months, pleasing results and a very low complication rate were obtained in 88 consecutive patients with a mean age of 55 1 ⁄2 years. In this article, the authors provide a detailed description of the anesthetic and surgical technique, a demonstration of the results in different patient age categories, and a discussion comparing the minimal access cranial suspension lift with other types of facial rejuvenation procedures.

Most of the authors' patients want a cosmetic improvement but not at the cost of prolonged disfigurement or a high risk of complications. In 1999, a very simple but effective rhytidectomy technique, termed an S-lift, was described in the literature and was adopted by the authors. Its basic principle is the suspension of sagging facial features by a strong, permanent purse-string suture. The procedure is performed with the patient under local anesthesia. Significant modifications were applied to the incision, to the purse-string suture anchoring site, and to the direction and shape of the skin excision. The authors named the modified procedure the minimal access cranial suspension lift to specifically describe the concept of the technique. Through an inverted L-shaped preauricular incision with extension below the sideburn, a limited skin undermining is performed. Two strong, permanent purse-string sutures are woven into the superficial musculoaponeurotic system tissues in a vertical U and an oblique O shape, initiating from a strong anchorage in the deep temporal fascia at the level of the helical crus. Tying these sutures produces a very powerful vertical correction of descended facial features that acts mainly on the jowls and the upper neck. The procedure can be extended by continuing the dissection over the malar fat pad, placing a third vertical purse-string suture with strong action on the nasolabial groove, and vertically repositioning the midfacial volumes. During 20 months, pleasing results and a very low complication rate were obtained in 88 consecutive patients with a mean age of 55 1 ⁄2 years. In this article, the authors provide a detailed description of the anesthetic and surgical technique, a demonstration of the results in different patient age categories, and a discussion comparing the minimal access cranial suspension lift with other types of facial rejuvenation procedures.

Effective toilet training interventions have been designed which rely on a combination of basic operant principles of positive reinforcement and punishment. In the present study, the effectiveness of a reinforcement-based toilet training intervention was investigated with three children with a diagnosis of autism. Procedures included a combination of positive reinforcement, graduated guidance, scheduled practice trials and forward prompting. Results indicated that all procedures were implemented in response to urination accidents. A three participants reduced urination accidents to zero and learned to spontaneously request use of the bathroom within 7±11 days of training. Gains were maintained over 6-month and 1-year follow-ups. Findings suggest that the proposed procedure is an effective and rapid method of toilet training, which can be implemented within a structured school setting with generalization to the home environment.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/49967840" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="3d54e8dc8d15a68c062cc621a052d792" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":68127524,"asset_id":49967840,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/68127524/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Miw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="183629603" href="https://independent.academia.edu/AlbertPfadt">Albert Pfadt</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="183629603" type="text/json">{"id":183629603,"first_name":"Albert","last_name":"Pfadt","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AlbertPfadt","display_name":"Albert Pfadt","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AlbertPfadt?f_ri=137516","photo":"https://gravatar.com/avatar/d324094c6ec36ffc45475a3d06d0936a?s=65"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_49967840 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="49967840"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 49967840, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_49967840", });

class="complete hidden">Background: Early detection of white matter lesions in childhood-onset cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD) is important as hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), currently the only effective treatment, is beneficial only if performed early in the disease course. Objective: To establish reliable biochemical markers of cerebral disease progression in patients with ALD to aid in treatment planning. Methods: The authors used proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in combination with LCModel analysis to quantify brain metabolites in small volumes (3 to 16 mL) in the occipital and frontal white matter and the splenium of the corpus callosum of 17 unsedated patients and 26 healthy volunteers (adult n ϭ 21, age-matched n ϭ 5) at 4 tesla. Results: Absolute concentrations of 12 metabolites were reliably determined, seven of which were established as markers of lesion development. Among these, creatine and choline containing compounds were the weakest markers while N-acetylaspartate, glutamine, and lipids ϩ lactate were the strongest. The large extent of changes in the markers enabled detection of early neurochemical changes in lesion formation prior to detection of abnormalities by conventional MRI. Concentrations of a number of metabolites were also significantly different between normal appearing white matter of patients and controls indicating biochemical alterations in the absence of cerebral disease.

Objective: To establish reliable biochemical markers of cerebral disease progression in patients with ALD to aid in treatment planning. Methods: The authors used proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) in combination with LCModel analysis to quantify brain metabolites in small volumes (3 to 16 mL) in the occipital and frontal white matter and the splenium of the corpus callosum of 17 unsedated patients and 26 healthy volunteers (adult n ϭ 21, age-matched n ϭ 5) at 4 tesla. Results: Absolute concentrations of 12 metabolites were reliably determined, seven of which were established as markers of lesion development. Among these, creatine and choline containing compounds were the weakest markers while N-acetylaspartate, glutamine, and lipids ϩ lactate were the strongest. The large extent of changes in the markers enabled detection of early neurochemical changes in lesion formation prior to detection of abnormalities by conventional MRI. Concentrations of a number of metabolites were also significantly different between normal appearing white matter of patients and controls indicating biochemical alterations in the absence of cerebral disease. Neurochemical improvements following HCT were measured in six patients. Conclusions: The progression of adrenoleukodystrophy, as well as effectiveness of its treatment, can be assessed with high precision using high field 1 H magnetic resonance spectroscopy in individual patients without the need for sedation. balt4/znl-neurol/znl-neurol/znl00305/znl9349-05a simmsl S‫8؍‬ 12/8/","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":45830949,"asset_id":12946911,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":43479245,"first_name":"In-Young","last_name":"Choi","domain_name":"kumc","page_name":"InYoungChoi","display_name":"In-Young Choi","profile_url":"https://kumc.academia.edu/InYoungChoi?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"},{"id":32131600,"first_name":"Gülin","last_name":"Öz","domain_name":"spanalumni","page_name":"GülinÖz","display_name":"Gülin Öz","profile_url":"https://spanalumni.academia.edu/G%C3%BClin%C3%96z?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"},{"id":32179340,"first_name":"Ivan","last_name":"Tkáč","domain_name":"umn","page_name":"IvanTkáč","display_name":"Ivan Tkáč","profile_url":"https://umn.academia.edu/IvanTk%C3%A1%C4%8D?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":237,"name":"Cognitive Science","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cognitive_Science?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":623,"name":"Neurology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neurology?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":13777,"name":"Creatine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Creatine?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":21732,"name":"Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Magnetic_Resonance_Spectroscopy?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent?f_ri=137516"},{"id":52055,"name":"Lipids","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Lipids?f_ri=137516"},{"id":64933,"name":"Child","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Child?f_ri=137516"},{"id":137516,"name":"Follow-up studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Follow-up_studies?f_ri=137516"},{"id":168638,"name":"Inositol","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Inositol?f_ri=137516"},{"id":180631,"name":"D-Aspartic Acid","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/D-Aspartic_Acid?f_ri=137516"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences?f_ri=137516"},{"id":382341,"name":"Glutamine","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Glutamine?f_ri=137516"},{"id":489727,"name":"Prognosis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prognosis?f_ri=137516"},{"id":584615,"name":"Disease Progression","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Disease_Progression?f_ri=137516"},{"id":981291,"name":"Brain Chemistry","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Brain_Chemistry?f_ri=137516"},{"id":1239755,"name":"Neurosciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Neurosciences?f_ri=137516"},{"id":2374838,"name":"Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hematopoietic_Stem_Cell_Transplantation?f_ri=137516"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_25950071" data-work_id="25950071" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/25950071/Adhesively_restored_anterior_maxillary_dentitions_affected_by_severe_erosion_up_to_6_year_results_of_a_prospective_clinical_study">Adhesively restored anterior maxillary dentitions affected by severe erosion: up to 6-year results of a prospective clinical study</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">In case of severe dental erosion, the maxillary anterior teeth are often particularly affected.

were the standard during the study period) and 6-month isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT) in HIV-infected adults in Côte d&#39;Ivoire. Early ART and IPT were shown to independently reduce the risk of severe morbidity at 30 months. Here, we present the efficacy of IPT in reducing mortality from the long-term follow-up of Temprano. For Temprano, participants were randomly assigned to four groups (deferred ART, deferred ART plus IPT, early ART, or early ART plus IPT). Participants who completed the trial follow-up were invited to participate in a post-trial phase. The primary post-trial phase endpoint was death, as analysed by the intention-to-treat principle. We used Cox proportional models to compare all-cause mortality between the IPT and no IPT ...</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/46460740" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="48057854" href="https://independent.academia.edu/MINGAAlbert">Albert MINGA</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="48057854" type="text/json">{"id":48057854,"first_name":"Albert","last_name":"MINGA","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"MINGAAlbert","display_name":"Albert MINGA","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/MINGAAlbert?f_ri=137516","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/48057854/13334924/14578774/s65_albert.minga.jpg"}</script></span></span><span class="u-displayInlineBlock InlineList-item-text"> and <span class="u-textDecorationUnderline u-clickable InlineList-item-text js-work-more-authors-46460740">+2</span><div class="hidden js-additional-users-46460740"><div><span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a href="https://independent.academia.edu/MarcelleDaligou">Marcelle Daligou</a></span></div><div><span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a href="https://independent.academia.edu/AlexAni6">Alex Ani</a></span></div></div></span><script>(function(){ var popoverSettings = { el: $('.js-work-more-authors-46460740'), placement: 'bottom', hide_delay: 200, html: true, content: function(){ return $('.js-additional-users-46460740').html();

Early ART and IPT were shown to independently reduce the risk of severe morbidity at 30 months. Here, we present the efficacy of IPT in reducing mortality from the long-term follow-up of Temprano. For Temprano, participants were randomly assigned to four groups (deferred ART, deferred ART plus IPT, early ART, or early ART plus IPT). Participants who completed the trial follow-up were invited to participate in a post-trial phase. The primary post-trial phase endpoint was death, as analysed by the intention-to-treat principle.

Hereditary breast and ovarian cancer: primary and secondary prevention for BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers Ten years after the identification of the breast and ovarian cancer predisposition genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, an emerging literature has explored the efficacy of strategies for primary as well as secondary prevention of breast and ovarian cancer in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations carriers. The integration of magnetic resonance imaging for breast cancer screening in BRCA carriers has achieved a higher sensibility of the screening, and an early detection of breast cancer. However, we don't have yet enough level of evidence that magnetic resonance imaging could reduce mortality in BRCA carriers. Because of the limitations of screening for ovarian cancer, bilateral prophylactic salpingo-oophorectomy has been established as one of the most effective strategies to prevent ovarian cancer in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers. This strategy also has a favorable effect on the reduction of risk of breast cancer if is performed before the age of 50. The management of this patients must be individualized and multidisciplinary.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/78682059" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="25e6913e3db924249719e9ff8c2f7240" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":85644214,"asset_id":78682059,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/85644214/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Myw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="34385917" href="https://independent.academia.edu/IgnacioBlanco3">Ignacio Blanco</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="34385917" type="text/json">{"id":34385917,"first_name":"Ignacio","last_name":"Blanco","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"IgnacioBlanco3","display_name":"Ignacio Blanco","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/IgnacioBlanco3?f_ri=137516","photo":"https://0.academia-photos.com/34385917/161611645/151340139/s65_ignacio.blanco.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_78682059 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="78682059"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 78682059, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_78682059", });

Methods: Data from the Korean Diabetes Association Neuropathy Study Group were used to evaluate 3999 patients with type 2 diabetes.

The patients were asked to answer the Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form (BPI-SF), Medical Outcomes Study Sleep (MOS-Sleep) Scale, EuroQol (EQ-5D), and VAS. Results: Among the patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy (n = 1338), 577 (43.1%) were diagnosed with PDPN (14.4% of all patients with type 2 diabetes). PDPN was independently associated with age, female gender, fasting plasma glucose, hypertension, and previous cerebrovascular events. All pain severity and interference measures were higher in patients with PDPN than in non-PDPN patients, and patients with PDPN reported more impaired sleep and lower EQ-5D and VAS scores. Conclusions: The prevalence of PDPN in Koreans was comparable to that in Western populations.

PDPN may impair sleep and quality of life compared with non-PDPN, and physicians should carefully consider pain symptoms in patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":85413300,"asset_id":78326898,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":36132923,"first_name":"Bong-yun","last_name":"Cha","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"BongyunCha","display_name":"Bong-yun Cha","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/BongyunCha?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":2898,"name":"Pain","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Pain?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":7470,"name":"Quality of life","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Quality_of_life?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":37772,"name":"Hospitals","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Hospitals?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":106431,"name":"Sleep disorders","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Sleep_disorders?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":137516,"name":"Follow-up studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Follow-up_studies?f_ri=137516"},{"id":244814,"name":"Clinical Sciences","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Clinical_Sciences?f_ri=137516"},{"id":273748,"name":"Republic of Korea","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Republic_of_Korea?f_ri=137516"},{"id":289271,"name":"Aged","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Aged?f_ri=137516"},{"id":289330,"name":"Prevalence","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prevalence?f_ri=137516"},{"id":489727,"name":"Prognosis","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Prognosis?f_ri=137516"},{"id":897823,"name":"Elsevier","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Elsevier?f_ri=137516"},{"id":915951,"name":"Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Type_2_Diabetes_Mellitus?f_ri=137516"},{"id":1034181,"name":"Cross Sectional Studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cross_Sectional_Studies?f_ri=137516"},{"id":2921997,"name":"Diabetic Neuropathies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Diabetic_Neuropathies?f_ri=137516"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_77231442" data-work_id="77231442" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/77231442/Clinic_and_radiological_improvement_of_lipoid_pneumonia_with_multiple_bronchoalveolar_lavages">Clinic and radiological improvement of lipoid pneumonia with multiple bronchoalveolar lavages</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">To assess the potential role of multiple bronchoalveolar lavages (BALs) in the treatment of children with lipoid pneumonia (LP).

Patients and Methods Between 2000 and 2011, we retrospectively reviewed the cases of 11 patients who were operated on for a splenic hydatid cyst. The demographic features, medical history, physical examinations, biochemical and serological tests, imaging modalities, and surgical treatment of the patients were noted. Results The mean patient age was 36.45 years (range, 20-66 years). While isolated splenic hydatid disease was present in five patients, other abdominal hydatid cysts were accompanied by a splenic hydatid cyst in six patients. Left upper abdominal pain was present in seven (64%) patients, whereas four (36%) patients were asymptomatic. Eight patients (72.72%) had undergone a total splenectomy and three (27.28%) had undergone spleen-preserving surgery. Postoperative complications developed in four (36%) patients at 5-15 days postoperatively. Conclusion Management of a splenic hydatid cyst is not consensual. Total splenectomy is optimal because it provides definitive treatment. However, spleen-preserving surgery is the preferred treatment in selected patients. The choice of technique depends on the localization, number, and size of hydatid cysts, and the absence or presence of other hydatic organ cysts.</div></div></div><ul class="InlineList u-ph0x u-fs13"><li class="InlineList-item logged_in_only"><div class="share_on_academia_work_button"><a class="academia_share Button Button--inverseBlue Button--sm js-bookmark-button" data-academia-share="Work/76475119" data-share-source="work_strip" data-spinner="small_white_hide_contents"><i class="fa fa-plus"></i><span class="work-strip-link-text u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Bookmark</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><div class="download"><a id="000a74d7dd63c854e5602faa0432d47f" rel="nofollow" data-download="{"attachment_id":84172242,"asset_id":76475119,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false,"track":null,"button_location":"work_strip","source":null,"hide_modal":null}" class="Button Button--sm Button--inverseGreen js-download-button prompt_button doc_download" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/84172242/download_file?st=MTc0MDAzODM5Myw4LjIyMi4yMDguMTQ2&s=work_strip"><i class="fa fa-arrow-circle-o-down fa-lg"></i><span class="u-textUppercase u-ml1x" data-content="button_text">Download</span></a></div></li><li class="InlineList-item"><ul class="InlineList InlineList--bordered u-ph0x"><li class="InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered"><span class="InlineList-item-text">by <span itemscope="itemscope" itemprop="author" itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a class="u-tcGrayDark u-fw700" data-has-card-for-user="39133674" href="https://independent.academia.edu/FatihTaskesen">Fatih Taskesen</a><script data-card-contents-for-user="39133674" type="text/json">{"id":39133674,"first_name":"Fatih","last_name":"Taskesen","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"FatihTaskesen","display_name":"Fatih Taskesen","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/FatihTaskesen?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}</script></span></span></li><li class="js-paper-rank-work_76475119 InlineList-item InlineList-item--bordered hidden"><span class="js-paper-rank-view hidden u-tcGrayDark" data-paper-rank-work-id="76475119"><i class="u-m1x fa fa-bar-chart"></i><strong class="js-paper-rank"></strong></span><script>$(function() { new Works.PaperRankView({ workId: 76475119, container: ".js-paper-rank-work_76475119", });

Patients and Methods Between 2000 and 2011, we retrospectively reviewed the cases of 11 patients who were operated on for a splenic hydatid cyst. The demographic features, medical history, physical examinations, biochemical and serological tests, imaging modalities, and surgical treatment of the patients were noted. Results The mean patient age was 36.45 years (range, 20-66 years). While isolated splenic hydatid disease was present in five patients, other abdominal hydatid cysts were accompanied by a splenic hydatid cyst in six patients. Left upper abdominal pain was present in seven (64%) patients, whereas four (36%) patients were asymptomatic. Eight patients (72.72%) had undergone a total splenectomy and three (27.28%) had undergone spleen-preserving surgery. Postoperative complications developed in four (36%) patients at 5-15 days postoperatively. Conclusion Management of a splenic hydatid cyst is not consensual. Total splenectomy is optimal because it provides definitive treatment. However, spleen-preserving surgery is the preferred treatment in selected patients. The choice of technique depends on the localization, number, and size of hydatid cysts, and the absence or presence of other hydatic organ cysts.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":84172242,"asset_id":76475119,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":39133674,"first_name":"Fatih","last_name":"Taskesen","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"FatihTaskesen","display_name":"Fatih

The aim of the study was to understand the determinants of physical activity and dietary patterns in this population during their final year of school. Qualitative data were generated from 10 interviews with adolescents with mild-moderate intellectual disabilities. Data were analysed using deductive thematic analysis, employing Self-Determination Theory as a theoretical framework. Adolescents&#39; environment and social interactions play a pivotal role in influencing physical activity and dietary patterns. Three themes emerged from the analysis: situatedness, motivation and wider environmental influences. School structure, high self-efficacy and social connectedness facilitate increased physical activity and healthier diet in adolescents with intellectual disabilities.

The aim of the study was to understand the determinants of physical activity and dietary patterns in this population during their final year of school. Qualitative data were generated from 10 interviews with adolescents with mild-moderate intellectual disabilities. Data were analysed using deductive thematic analysis, employing Self-Determination Theory as a theoretical framework. Adolescents\u0026#39; environment and social interactions play a pivotal role in influencing physical activity and dietary patterns. Three themes emerged from the analysis: situatedness, motivation and wider environmental influences. School structure, high self-efficacy and social connectedness facilitate increased physical activity and healthier diet in adolescents with intellectual disabilities. Home life, low self-efficacy and a lack of social connectedness can serve as a barrier to PA and a healthy diet.","downloadable_attachments":[{"id":82110039,"asset_id":73685389,"asset_type":"Work","always_allow_download":false}],"ordered_authors":[{"id":38846937,"first_name":"Andrew","last_name":"Jahoda","domain_name":"independent","page_name":"AndrewJahoda","display_name":"Andrew Jahoda","profile_url":"https://independent.academia.edu/AndrewJahoda?f_ri=137516","photo":"/images/s65_no_pic.png"}],"research_interests":[{"id":221,"name":"Psychology","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychology?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":237,"name":"Cognitive Science","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Cognitive_Science?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":940,"name":"Social Work","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Social_Work?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":9478,"name":"Diet","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Diet?f_ri=137516","nofollow":true},{"id":12135,"name":"Qualitative Research","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Qualitative_Research?f_ri=137516"},{"id":22506,"name":"Adolescent","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent?f_ri=137516"},{"id":23868,"name":"Intellectual Disability","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Intellectual_Disability?f_ri=137516"},{"id":49610,"name":"Schools","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Schools?f_ri=137516"},{"id":135185,"name":"Exercise","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Exercise?f_ri=137516"},{"id":137516,"name":"Follow-up studies","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Follow-up_studies?f_ri=137516"},{"id":172809,"name":"Interpersonal Relations","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Interpersonal_Relations?f_ri=137516"},{"id":174464,"name":"Social Environment","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Social_Environment?f_ri=137516"},{"id":598602,"name":"Psychological Theory","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Psychological_Theory?f_ri=137516"},{"id":1181690,"name":"Adolescent Behavior","url":"https://www.academia.edu/Documents/in/Adolescent_Behavior?f_ri=137516"}]}, }) } })();</script></ul></li></ul></div></div><div class="u-borderBottom1 u-borderColorGrayLighter"><div class="clearfix u-pv7x u-mb0x js-work-card work_70742827" data-work_id="70742827" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="https://schema.org/ScholarlyArticle"><div class="header"><div class="title u-fontSerif u-fs22 u-lineHeight1_3"><a class="u-tcGrayDarkest js-work-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/70742827/Axillary_dissection_in_breast_cancer">Axillary dissection in breast cancer</a></div></div><div class="u-pb4x u-mt3x"><div class="summary u-fs14 u-fw300 u-lineHeight1_5 u-tcGrayDarkest"><div class="summarized">Modulation of cellular antigens in chronically infected CEM cells by HTLV-IIIB. 0-propiolactone-treated cells were acetone-fixed and stained with monoclonal antibodies; hence membrane and cytoplasmic antigen is detected.
