While comorbid depression/physical health is a major clinical concern, the conventional methods of medicine make it difficult to model the complexities of this relationship. Such challenges include cataloguing multiple trends, developing multiple…

An institutional series and contemporary review of bacterial spinal epidural abscess: current status and future directions.

OBJECT: Over the past decade, the incidence of bacterial spinal epidural abscess (SEA) has been increasing. In recent years, studies on this condition have been rampant in the literature. The authors present an 11-year institutional experience with…

Association of parathyroid hormone with 20-year cognitive decline: The ARIC study.

OBJECTIVE: We hypothesized that elevated parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels will be independently associated with 20-year cognitive decline in a large population-based cohort. METHODS: We studied 12,964 middle-aged white and black ARIC participants…

Effect of method of administration on longitudinal assessment of quality of life in gynecologic cancer: an exploratory study.

BACKGROUND: Longitudinal assessments of quality of life are needed to measure changes over the course of a disease and treatment. Computer versions of quality of life instruments have increased the feasibility of obtaining longitudinal measurements.…

Short-term functional decline and service use in older emergency department patients with blunt injuries.

BACKGROUND: Injuries are a common reason for emergency department (ED) visits by older patients. Although injuries in older patients can be serious, 75% of these patients are discharged home after their ED visit. These patients may be at risk for…

Longitudinal assessment of bone growth and development in a facility-based population of young adults with cerebral palsy.

AIM: Osteoporosis is a significant clinical problem in persons with moderate to severe cerebral palsy (CP), causing fractures with minimal trauma. Over the past decade, most studies examining osteoporosis and CP have been cross-sectional in nature,…

Epipericardial fat pad necrosis: computed tomography findings and literature review.

Epipericardial fat necrosis is an unusual clinical condition of unknown etiology first reported in the literature in 1957. It presents as an acute onset of chest pain and a well-defined juxtacardiac mass. Computed tomographic findings of this…

The effect of a 12-month longitudinal long-term care rotation on knowledge and attitudes of internal medicine residents about geriatrics.

OBJECTIVE: To determine if participation in a 12-month longitudinal long-term care (LTC) rotation resulted in improved knowledge and attitudes about geriatrics. DESIGN: Longitudinal study with paired measurements. SETTING: A community LTC facility…

Spectrum of excess mortality due to carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infections.

Patients infected or colonized with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKp) are often chronically and acutely ill, which results in substantial mortality unrelated to infection. Therefore, estimating excess mortality due to CRKp infections…
