Utility of Preoperative Cardiac Workup for Children With Very Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea

The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
In this retrospective study, we aimed to examine the prevalence and utility of obtaining a preoperative cardiac workup in children with very severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) prior to adenotonsillectomy. Of 144 patients with very severe OSA, 38 patients (26.4%) underwent a preoperative cardiac workup, and three of those 38 had abnormal findings ...

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...

Quantitative Dual‐Energy CT Perfusion Versus SPECT/CT V/Q Scintigraphy for Preoperative Lung Function Assessment: A Prospective Cohort Study

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Accurate preoperative physiological assessment is critical for high‐risk patients undergoing lung resection to predict postoperative lung function. This study compared quantitative dual‐energy CT (DECT) perfusion with SPECT/CT for lobar perfusion mapping in an at‐risk oncological cohort.

The Fiery Eyes of a Maenad: Origin Determination of Faceted Garnet Eye Inlays in a Roman Bronze Bust From Southern Tyrol

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1837, the Tyrolean State Museum Ferdinandeum in Innsbruck, Austria, purchased a Roman bronze statue of a maenad from the 2nd century ce with red garnets as facetted eye inlays found near Brixen, Southern Tyrol. These garnets were investigated using optical microscopy, a portable hand‐held and a stationary micro‐X‐ray fluorescence device, as

Evaluating high‐sensitivity troponin levels in people with sickle cell disease in the emergency department

British Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
This study shows that sickle cell disease patients have elevated high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs‐cTnI) that is not considered clinically significant but are outside of the normal range. Elevated hs‐cTnI was associated with low haemoglobin and a history of heart failure.

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...

Cancer pain: current practice and emerging targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Cancer pain (CP) arises from a complex interplay between the tumour and its microenvironment. Many patients experience a mixed pain phenotype that encompasses nociceptive, neuropathic and neuroinflammatory mechanisms, and vary across tumour type and disease stage. Despite decades of intensive research, the mainstay of cancer pain treatment is still non‐

Tumor‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles in Plasma for Predicting Anti‐PD‐1 Antibody Efficacy in Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
New antibody‐based sandwich assays to measure plasma extracellular vesicle (EV) subsets derived from tumor tissues were developed. These EVs can be easily measured repeatedly at appropriate times. They may be useful as liquid biopsies for early cancer detection and for predicting efficacy following surgery and anti‐PD‐1 antibody in NSCLC patients ...
