Abstract
Temporal bone trauma represents a potentially underrecognized condition during head injuries and remains an important consideration during the evaluation of these patients. The temporal bone contains many critical neurovascular structures in addition to the primary organs of the auditory and vestibular systems that may be violated during these injuries. Despite the lack of consensus guidelines on the management of these injuries, this review highlights the current literature regarding the diagnosis and management of temporal bone trauma and its potential complications.

Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) is a widely available curative option for patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). Our original non-myeloablative haplo-HSCT trial employing post-transplant (PT) cyclophosphamide had a low incidence of GVHD but had high rejection rates. Here, we aimed to evaluate immune reconstitution following haplo-HSCT and identify cytokines and cells associated with graft rejection/engraftment. 50 cytokines and 10 immune cell subsets were screened using multiplex-ELISA and flow cytometry, respectively, at baseline and PT-Days 30, 60, 100, and 180. We observed the most significant differences in cytokine levels between the engrafted and rejected groups at PT-Day 60, corresponding with clinical findings of secondary graft rejection. Of the 44 cytokines evaluated, plasma concentrations of 19 cytokines were different between the two groups at PT-Day 60. Factor analysis suggested two independent factors. The first factor (IL-17A, IL-10, IL-7, G-CSF, IL-2, MIP-1a, VEGF, and TGFb1 contributed significantly) was strongly associated with engraftment with OR = 2.7 (95%CI of 1.4 to 5.4), whereas the second factor (GROa and IL-18 contributed significantly) was not significantly associated with engraftment. Sufficient donor myeloid chimerism (DMC) is critical for the success of HSCT; here, we evaluated immune cells among high (H) DMC (DMC≥20%) and low (L) DMC (DMC<20%) groups along with engrafted and rejected groups. We found that early myeloid-derived suppressor cell (eMDSC) frequencies were elevated in engrafted patients and patients with HDMC at PT-Day 30 (P< 0.04 & P< 0.003, respectively). 9 of 20 patients were evaluated for the source of eMDSCs. The HDMC group had high mixed chimeric eMDSCs as compared to the LDMC group (P< 0.00001). We found a positive correlation between the frequencies of eMDSCs and Tregs at PT-Day 100 (r=0.72, P <0.0007); eMDSCs at BSL and Tregs at PT-Day 100 (r=0.63, P <0.004). Of 10 immune regulatory cells and 50 cytokines, we observed mixed chimeric eMDSCs and IL-17A, IL-10, IL-7, G-CSF, IL-2, MIP-1a, VEGF, TGFb1 as potential hits which could serve as prognostic markers in predicting allograft outcome towards engraftment following haploidentical HSCT employing post-transplant cyclophosphamide. The current findings need to be replicated and further explored in a larger cohort.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Vision and hearing impairments are highly prevalent conditions among older adults, and well-established links exist between sensory impairment and household, mobility, and self-care activity limitations. However, studies examining the impact of unmet long-term services and supports (LTSS) needs have not considered the role of vision and hearing impairment on the risk of experiencing adverse consequences, including wetting or soiling oneself. METHODS Using Rounds 1 and 5 of the National Health and Aging Trends Study, a nationally-representative survey of Medicare beneficiaries aged 65 and older, we examine the association of vision and hearing impairment on the odds of experiencing an adverse consequence while accounting for other socio-demographic and health status factors. RESULTS Among a weighted population of 49,770,947 community-living older adults with limitations in household, mobility, or self-care activities, 20.1% (95% CI: 19.2-21.0) experienced an adverse consequence as a result of unmet LTSS needs. In the full-adjusted regression, individuals with vision or hearing impairment had 96% (OR:1.96; 95% CI: 1.64-2.34) and 43% increased odds (OR:1.43; 95% CI: 1.24-1.65), respectively of experiencing any adverse consequence. Hearing impairment was associated with higher odds of household or self-care adverse consequences, while vision impairment was associated with higher odds of mobility or self-care adverse consequences. DISCUSSION Sensory impairment may increase the risk for adverse consequences for older adults with unmet LTSS needs. Activities that support older adults living safely in the community should consider the role of sensory impairment and how to address the unique needs of those with hearing or vision impairment.

Abstract
Adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) experience acute and chronic complications and die prematurely. When taken at maximum tolerated dose (MTD), hydroxyurea prolongs survival; however, it has not consistently reversed organ dysfunction. Patients also frequently do not take hydroxyurea, at least in part because of physician discomfort with prescribing hydroxyurea. We sought to develop a computer program that could easily titrate hydroxyurea to MTD. This was a single-arm, open-label pilot study. Fifteen patients with homozygous SCD were enrolled in the protocol, and 10 patients were followed at baseline and then for 1 year after hydroxyurea initiation or dose titration. Fetal hemoglobin significantly increased in all 10 patients from 8.3% to 25.1% (P < .001). Nine patients were titrated to MTD in an average of 7.9 months, and the tenth patient's hydroxyurea dose was increased to 33 mg/kg/day. Computer program dosing recommendations were the same as manual dosing decisions made using the same algorithm for all patients and at all times. We also evaluated markers of cardiopulmonary, liver and renal damage. Although cardiopulmonary function did not significantly improve, direct bilirubin and alanine aminotransferase levels significantly decreased (P < .001 and P < .01, respectively). Last, although kidney function did not improve, degree of proteinuria was significantly reduced (P < .05). We have developed a computer program that reliably titrates hydroxyurea to MTD. A larger study is indicated to test the program either as a computer program or a downloadable application.

Abstract
Background
Hyperglycemia leading to increased oxidative stress is implicated in the increased risk for the development of macrovascular and microvascular complications in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
Methods and Results
A random subcohort of 349 participants was selected from the
DCCT
/
EDIC
(Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications) cohort. This included 320 controls and 29 cardiovascular disease cases that were augmented with 98 additional known cases to yield a case cohort of 447 participants (320 controls, 127 cases). Biosamples from
DCCT
baseline, year 1, and closeout of
DCCT
, and 1 to 2 years post‐
DCCT
(
EDIC
years 1 and 2) were measured for markers of oxidative stress, including plasma myeloperoxidase, paraoxonase activity, urinary F
2α
isoprostanes, and its metabolite, 2,3 dinor‐8
iso
prostaglandin F
2α
. Following adjustment for glycated hemoblobin and weighting the observations inversely proportional to the sampling selection probabilities, higher paraoxonase activity, reflective of antioxidant activity, and 2,3 dinor‐8
iso
prostaglandin F
2α
, an oxidative marker, were significantly associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease (−4.5% risk for 10% higher paraoxonase,
P
<0.003; −5.3% risk for 10% higher 2,3 dinor‐8
iso
prostaglandin F
2α
,
P
=0.0092). In contrast, the oxidative markers myeloperoxidase and F
2α
isoprostanes were not significantly associated with cardiovascular disease after adjustment for glycated hemoblobin. There were no significant differences between
DCCT
intensive and conventional treatment groups in the change in all biomarkers across time segments.
Conclusions
Heightened antioxidant activity (rather than diminished oxidative stress markers) is associated with lower cardiovascular disease risk in type 1 diabetes mellitus, but these biomarkers did not change over time with intensification of glycemic control.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Pulse-spray pharmacomechanical thrombolysis is an evolving method for the treatment of vascular occlusions in which a highly concentrated fibrinolytic agent is injected as a high-pressure spray directly into thrombus. The purpose of this retrospective study was to analyze our long-term experience with this technique for the treatment of clotted hemodialysis grafts and to compare the efficacy and safety of the original and current methods. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Over 6 years, 284 cases of dialysis graft thrombosis were considered suitable for treatment with pulse-spray thrombolysis. The original technique involved the injection of highly concentrated urokinase directly into a clot through two crisscross catheters with multiple side holes. The current technique includes early fragmentation of residual clot with a balloon catheter, intrathrombic injection of heparin, mechanical treatment of a lysis-resistant clot at the arterial anastomosis, and routine administration of aspirin. After thrombolysis, underlying obstructions were treated with balloon angioplasty, atherectomy, or stents. The technical success, immediate clinical success, and frequency of complications for the entire population were analyzed. In addition, the results for 36 cases treated with the original technique were compared with the results for 37 recent cases treated with the current technique. RESULTS Of 284 cases considered suitable for treatment, thrombolysis was not done in eight cases because the venous anastomosis could not be crossed. Thrombolysis was discontinued in two cases because of extravasation of contrast material. The technical success for all grafts considered for treatment was 96%; 92% of treated grafts remained patent for at least 24 hr. Major complications occurred in 1% of cases, and minor complications occurred in 9% of cases. The clinical efficacies of the original and current techniques were 86% and 92%, respectively. The mean thrombolytic agent infusion time was reduced from 44 +/- 20 min to 23 +/- 13 min (p < .001). The overall procedure time for the recently treated subgroup was 67 +/- 26 min. There was no significant difference in the frequencies of major and minor complications between the treatment subgroups. CONCLUSION Pulse-spray pharmacomechanical thrombolysis is a reliable, rapid, and safe method for recanalization of occluded dialysis grafts. The current technique has been proven as safe and effective as the original technique but offers the advantage of a significant reduction in the time required for the infusion of thrombolytic agent.
