Abstract
Expedited home placement of heartworm-positive shelter dogs is desirable and may outweigh the perceived increase in anesthetic risk for pre-adoption sterilization; however, this issue has not been addressed in the literature. Our goal was to determine whether heartworm-positive dogs suffered clinically evident perioperative complications after sterilization under general anesthesia. Anticipated complications could result from anesthesia-induced changes in pulmonary vascular resistance and cardiac output leading to signs of thromboembolic disease and even death from dislodged parasites. The medical records of 15 hemodynamically stable, intact, heartworm-positive, mixed-breed shelter dogs with no or mild clinical signs were examined. Pre-operative evaluation of patients included a complete blood count, clinical chemistry profile, heartworm antigen and microfilariae screen, electrocardiogram, and thoracic radiographs. The anesthetic protocol for heartworm-positive dogs included acepromazine (0.01-0.05 mg/kg), butorphanol (0.1mg/kg IM) and meloxicam (0.2mg/kg IM), or carprofen (2mg/kg SQ) in the preanesthetic period; tiletamine/zolazepam (3-6 mg/kg IV) or ketamine/diazepam (3-6mg/kg/0.25-5mg/kg IV) to effect for induction; maintenance on isoflurane or sevoflurane and oxygen. A lidocaine testicular block was performed on 11 males. All dogs were monitored postoperatively for a minimum of 24h and then daily until discharge. There were no clinically evident perioperative complications in heartworm-positive dogs. Purposeful pre-operative evaluation of heartworm-positive dogs while utilizing cardiovascular-sparing anesthetic protocols may allow clinicians to proceed with sterilization of hemodynamically stable heartworm-positive shelter dogs prior to heartworm treatment.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE Critically ill patients are at risk of venous thrombosis, and therefore guidelines recommend daily thromboprophylaxis. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) commonly occurs in the lower extremities but can occur in other sites including the head and neck, trunk, and upper extremities. The risk of nonleg deep venous thromboses (NLDVTs), predisposing factors, and the association between NLDVTs and pulmonary embolism (PE) or death are unclear. OBJECTIVE To describe the frequency, anatomical location, risk factors, management, and consequences of NLDVTs in a large cohort of medical-surgical critically ill adults. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS A nested prospective cohort study in the setting of secondary and tertiary care intensive care units (ICUs). The study population comprised 3746 patients, who were expected to remain in the ICU for at least 3 days and were enrolled in a randomized clinical trial of dalteparin vs standard heparin for thromboprophylaxis. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES The proportion of patients who had NLDVTs, the mean number per patient, and the anatomical location. We characterized NLDVTs as prevalent or incident (identified within 72 hours of ICU admission or thereafter) and whether they were catheter related or not. We used multivariable regression models to evaluate risk factors for NLDVT and to examine subsequent anticoagulant therapy, associated PE, and death. RESULTS Of 3746 trial patients, 84 (2.2%) developed 1 or more non-leg vein thromboses (superficial or deep, proximal or distal). Thromboses were more commonly incident (n = 75 [2.0%]) than prevalent (n = 9 [0.2%]) (P < .001) and more often deep (n = 67 [1.8%]) than superficial (n = 31 [0.8%]) (P < .001). Cancer was the only independent predictor of incident NLDVT (hazard ratio [HR], 2.22; 95% CI, 1.06-4.65). After adjusting for Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores, personal or family history of venous thromboembolism, body mass index, vasopressor use, type of thromboprophylaxis, and presence of leg DVT, NLDVTs were associated with an increased risk of PE (HR, 11.83; 95% CI, 4.80-29.18). Nonleg DVTs were not associated with ICU mortality (HR, 1.09; 95% CI, 0.62-1.92) in a model adjusting for age, APACHE II, vasopressor use, mechanical ventilation, renal replacement therapy, and platelet count below 50 × 10(9)/L. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Despite universal heparin thromboprophylaxis, nonleg thromboses are found in 2.2% of medical-surgical critically ill patients, primarily in deep veins and proximal veins. Patients who have a malignant condition may have a significantly higher risk of developing NLDVT, and patients with NLDVT, compared with those without, appeared to be at higher risk of PE but not higher risk of death.

Abstract
The jet fragmentation function is measured with direct photon-hadron correlations in p+p and Au+Au collisions at √[s(NN)]=200 GeV. The p(T) of the photon is an excellent approximation to the initial p(T) of the jet and the ratio z(T)=p(T)(h)/p(T)(γ) is used as a proxy for the jet fragmentation function. A statistical subtraction is used to extract the direct photon-hadron yields in Au+Au collisions while a photon isolation cut is applied in p+p. I(AA), the ratio of hadron yield opposite the photon in Au+Au to that in p+p, indicates modification of the jet fragmentation function. Suppression, most likely due to energy loss in the medium, is seen at high z(T). The associated hadron yield at low z(T) is enhanced at large angles. Such a trend is expected from redistribution of the lost energy into increased production of low-momentum particles.

Abstract
Reading the illness narratives of my professional collogues was a moving experience, which reminded me of my own vulnerability and made clear the wisdom of connecting the dots between lived experience and scholarship. Though this wisdom is compelling, it is far from clear how it might be done. Including lived-sexperience in medical humanities scholarship exposes researchers to the vulnerability and isolation that goes with illness. Disability studies analysis offers powerful tools for understanding this vulnerability and isolation. The next step is to take that analysis into applied medical scholarship. These articles provide a valuable start in that direction.

Abstract
Neutral-pion π(0) spectra were measured at midrapidity (|y|<0.35) in Au+Au collisions at √(s(NN))=39 and 62.4 GeV and compared with earlier measurements at 200 GeV in a transverse-momentum range of 1<p(T)<10 GeV/c. The high-p(T) tail is well described by a power law in all cases, and the powers decrease significantly with decreasing center-of-mass energy. The change of powers is very similar to that observed in the corresponding spectra for p+p collisions. The nuclear modification factors (R(AA)) show significant suppression, with a distinct energy, centrality, and p(T) dependence. Above p(T)=7 GeV/c, R(AA) is similar for √(s(NN))=62.4 and 200 GeV at all centralities. Perturbative-quantum-chromodynamics calculations that describe R(AA) well at 200 GeV fail to describe the 39 GeV data, raising the possibility that, for the same p(T) region, the relative importance of initial-state effects and soft processes increases at lower energies. The p(T) range where π(0) spectra in central Au+Au collisions have the same power as in p+p collisions is ≈5 and 7 GeV/c for √(s(NN))=200 and 62.4 GeV, respectively. For the √(s(NN))=39 GeV data, it is not clear whether such a region is reached, and the x(T) dependence of the x(T)-scaling power-law exponent is very different from that observed in the √(s(NN))=62 and 200 GeV data, providing further evidence that initial-state effects and soft processes mask the in-medium suppression of hard-scattered partons to higher p(T) as the collision energy decreases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We address the key emerging question of whether Lin(-)/CD34(+) hematopoietic precursor cells (HPCs) represent an important latent reservoir of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) during long-term suppressive therapy. METHODS To estimate the frequency of HIV-1 infection in bone marrow, we sorted Lin(-)/CD34(+) HPCs and 3 other cell types (Lin(-)/CD34(-), Lin(-)/CD4(+), and Lin(+)/CD4(+)) from 8 patients who had undetectable viral loads for 3-12 years. Using a single-proviral sequencing method, we extracted, amplified, and sequenced multiple single HIV-1 DNA molecules from these cells and memory CD4(+) T cells from contemporaneous peripheral blood samples. RESULTS We analyzed 100,000-870,000 bone marrow Lin(-)/CD34(+) HPCs from the 8 patients and found no HIV-1 DNA. We did isolate HIV-1 DNA from their bone marrow Lin(+)/CD4(+) cells that was genetically similar to HIV-1 DNA from lymphoid cells located in the peripheral blood, indicating an exchange of infected cells between these compartments. CONCLUSIONS The absence of infected HPCs provides strong evidence that the HIV-1 infection frequency of Lin(-)/CD34(+) HPCs from bone marrow, if it occurred, was <.003% (highest upper 95% confidence interval) in all 8 patients. These results strongly suggest that Lin(-)/CD34(+) HPCs in bone marrow are not a source of persistent HIV-1 in patients on long-term suppressive therapy.

Abstract
AIM The efficacy of argatroban as an anticoagulant in patients with heparin-induced thrombocytopenia type II (HIT) was shown in two large trials (ARG 911 and ARG 915) using a composite endpoint of death, amputation and new thrombosis, but no benefit was seen in amputation rate. Factors that influenced patients proceeding to amputation are unclear. METHODS We retrospectively undertook exploratory data analyses comparing patient- and treatment-related factors in patients with (N.=48) and without (N.=520) all-cause amputation. RESULTS Of the amputation cases, 46% had received warfarin, and 97.9% had severe ischemia/gangrene diagnosed pre-argatroban. Thromboembolic complications prior to argatroban were more common in amputation cases (91.7% vs. 71.9%, P=0.003), with a higher proportion of arterial than venous events (68.2% vs. 52.3%, P=0.031; mean 1.7/patient vs. 1.4/patient, P=0.031), largely occurring in the limbs (94.1%). More females than males suffered amputation (P=0.003), and cardiovascular risk was more frequent in amputation cases than non-amputation (hypertension, P=0.008; peripheral vascular disease (PVD), P<0.001; diabetes, P<0.001). There were no differences in baseline platelet count, platelet recovery (24 h post-argatroban), or weighted mean aPTT between groups; amputation was associated with longer treatment duration (5 vs. 7 days, P=0.001). CONCLUSION Almost all amputation cases had severe ischemia prior to argatroban; female gender and cardiovascular risk factors, in particular PVD with peripheral vascular surgery, appear to identify a subgroup of patients at high risk of amputation. The pharmacodynamics of argatroban appeared to be unchanged in the amputation cases suggesting that argatroban action was undiminished in the amputation cases despite the negative outcome of treatment.

Behavioral deficits and cellular damage following developmental ethanol exposure in rats are attenuated by CP-101,606, an NMDAR antagonist with unique NR2B specificity. Pharmacol Biochem Behav 2011; 100:545-53. [PMID: 22037411 DOI: 10.1016/j.pbb.2011.10.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2011] [Revised: 10/03/2011] [Accepted: 10/14/2011] [Indexed: 10/16/2022]
Abstract
NMDAR-mediated excitotoxicity has been implicated in some of the impairments following fetal ethanol exposure. Previous studies suggest that both neuronal cell death and some of the behavioral deficits can be reduced by NMDAR antagonism during withdrawal, including antagonism of a subpopulation of receptors containing NR2B subunits. To further investigate NR2B involvement, we selected a compound, CP-101,606 (CP) which binds selectively to NR2B/2B stoichiometries, for both in vitro and in vivo analyses. For the in vitro study, hippocampal explants were exposed to ethanol for 10 days and then 24 h following removal of ethanol, cellular damage was quantified via propidium iodide fluorescence. In vitro ethanol withdrawal-associated neurotoxicity was prevented by CP (10 and 25 nM). In vivo ethanol exposure was administered on PNDs 1-7 with CP administered 21 h following cessation. Activity (PNDs 20-21), motor skills (PNDs 31-33), and maze navigation (PNDs 43-44) were all susceptible to ethanol insult; treatment with CP (15 mg/kg) rescued these deficits. Our findings show that CP-101,606, a drug that blocks the NR2B/2B receptor, can reduce some of the damaging effects of "3rd trimester" alcohol exposure in our rodent model. Further work is clearly warranted on the neuroprotective potential of this drug in the developing brain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Concerns about poor communication in the medical and other healthcare professions are common in the empirical literature, with studies showing direct relationships between practitioners' effective listening and patients' satisfaction and less risk of litigation. Furthermore, people do not simply listen or not listen, rather they adopt particular listening styles, making the understanding and investigation of practitioner communication a complex topic. The objective of this study was to identify the listening styles of undergraduate health science students enrolled at one Australian university. METHODS A cross-sectional study using a paper-based version of the Listening Styles Profile (LSP-16) was administered to a cohort of students enrolled in undergraduate education programs in eight different health disciplines: emergency health (paramedics), nursing, midwifery, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, nursing/emergency health dual degree, health science and nutrition and dietetics. The LSP-16 is a validated and reliable scale that assesses participants' preferences for each of four distinct listening style constructs. There were 1459 health students eligible for inclusion in the study. Ethics approval was granted. RESULTS A total of 860 students participated in the study (response rate of 58%), of whom 87.2% (n=750) were female. Across the group, a strong preference was shown for the People Listening Style (LS), which is a listening style characterised by a concern for people's feelings and emotions. Otherwise, an unexpected amount of homogeneity in preferred listening style was found within the group of health science students. Female students reported a slightly stronger preference for the People LS, whereas males reported slightly stronger preferences for the Action LS and Content LS. There were no statistical differences in preference for LS by students' age or year level of undergraduate enrolment. CONCLUSION The health professional student participants of this study reported a preference for a range of listening styles, which is appropriate for many healthcare settings. However, a strong preference for the People LS and a moderate preference for the Content LS were evident. This study should be replicated with practicing professionals to establish if the demands of the workplace affect practitioners' listening style(s).
