Near-infrared Speckle Contrast Diffuse Correlation Tomography for Noncontact Imaging of Tissue Blood Flow Distribution

by Lei Chen Daniel Irwin Siavash Mazdeyasna Chong Huang Mehrana Mohtasebi Xuhui Lui Guoqiang Yu

Imaging of tissue blood flow (BF) distributions provides vital information for the diagnosis and therapeutic monitoring of various vascular diseases. The innovative near-infrared speckle contrast diffuse correlation tomography (scDCT) technique produces full 3D BF distributions. Many advanced features are provided over competing technologies including high sampling density, fast data acquisition, noninvasiveness, noncontact, affordability, portability, and translatability across varied subject sizes. The basic principle, instrumentation, and data analysis algorithms are presented in detail. The extensive applications are summarized such as imaging of cerebral BF (CBF) in mice, rat, and piglet animals with skull penetration into deep brain. Clinical human testing results are described by recovery of BF distributions on preterm infants (CBF) through incubator wall, and on sensitive burn tissues and mastectomy skin flaps without direct device-tissue interactions. Supporting activities outlined include integrated capability for acquiring surface curvature information, rapid 2D blood flow mapping, and optimizations via tissue-like phantoms and computer simulations. These applications and activities both highlight and guide the reader as to the expected abilities and limitations of scDCT for adapting into their own preclinical/clinical research, use in constrained environments (i.e., neonatal intensive care unit bedside), and use on vulnerable subjects and measurement sites.

Nearly Departed: Adventures In Loss, Cancer, And Other Inconveniences

by Gila Pfeffer

A sharp, funny, and heartfelt memoir of losing both parents to cancer and the daring choices Gila Pfeffer made to avoid the same early demise By the time she was thirty, Gila Pfeffer was the oldest living member of her family, having lost her mother to breast cancer and her father to colon cancer. A simple blood test confirmed she carried the BRCA1 gene—which put her at high risk of developing cancer herself. Determined to break the cycle of early death in her family, Gila decides to undergo an elective double mastectomy. This memoir follows her journey as she becomes a reluctant expert on how to sit shiva, grows up, falls in love, and enters motherhood, before her life is derailed yet again. Her double mastectomy reveals cancer already growing in one breast. After enduring eight rounds of chemo and the removal of her ovaries, she takes her last-ever dip in the mikvah waters as a bald, menopausal, thirty-five-year-old mother of four. With chutzpah honed over years of repeatedly surviving the worst, she manages to save her own life. Drenched in Gila’s dark humor, Nearly Departed is a story about thriving against the odds, committing to what’s important, and leaving a better legacy than the one you inherited.

Necropolis: Disease, Power, and Capitalism in the Cotton Kingdom

by Kathryn Olivarius

Disease is thought to be a great leveler of humanity, but in antebellum New Orleans acquiring immunity from the scourge of yellow fever magnified the brutal inequities of slave-powered capitalism. Antebellum New Orleans sat at the heart of America’s slave and cotton kingdoms. It was also where yellow fever epidemics killed as many as 150,000 people during the nineteenth century. With little understanding of mosquito-borne viruses—and meager public health infrastructure—a person’s only protection against the scourge was to “get acclimated” by surviving the disease. About half of those who contracted yellow fever died. Repeated epidemics bolstered New Orleans’s strict racial hierarchy by introducing another hierarchy, what Kathryn Olivarius terms “immunocapital.” As this highly original analysis shows, white survivors could leverage their immunity as evidence that they had paid their biological dues and could then pursue economic and political advancement. For enslaved Blacks, the story was different. Immunity protected them from yellow fever, but as embodied capital, they saw the social and monetary value of their acclimation accrue to their white owners. Whereas immunity conferred opportunity and privilege on whites, it relegated enslaved people to the most grueling labor. The question of good health—who has it, who doesn’t, and why—is always in part political. Necropolis shows how powerful nineteenth-century white Orleanians—all allegedly immune—pushed this politics to the extreme. They constructed a society that capitalized mortal risk and equated perceived immunity with creditworthiness and reliability. Instead of trying to curb yellow fever through sanitation or quarantines, immune white Orleanians took advantage of the chaos disease caused. Immunological discrimination therefore became one more form of bias in a society premised on inequality, one more channel by which capital disciplined and divided the population.

Morphological differences among the various species are discussed.

Necrotic Cell Death

by Peter Vandenabeele Han-Ming Shen

Starting with discussion of basic concepts and the molecular mechanisms of necrosis, this book looks first at several forms of necrotic cell death that have been identified, including necroptosis, autophagic cell death, and PARP-mediated cell death. As necrotic cell death is increasingly known to play a critical role in many physiological processes, the next chapters discuss its effect on metabolism, inflammation, immunity, and development. Necrotic cell death is closely implicated in human diseases like cancer, so the next chapters examine its relevance to human diseases, and final chapters cover methodologies for measuring necrosis. This book presents comprehensive coverage of necrosis from recognized experts from leading academic and medical institutions around the world. ​In contrast to apoptosis, well-defined as a form of programmed cell death, necrosis used to be considered as accidental (i. e. , non-programmed) cell death, usually in response to a severe injury. Accumulating evidence now suggests, however, that necrosis is also programmed and controlled by distinctive "death machinery" in response to various stimuli like oxidative stress or DNA damage.

Necrotising Enterocolitis in Clinical Practice (In Clinical Practice)

by Ian Jones

There is a very large body of literature on Necrotising Enterocolitis (NEC), much of it is confusing and contradictory. This book consolidates all the relevant aspects to provide clinicians and especially trainees with an overview of this condition which informs clinical practice and aids critical appraisal of new research in this area. The topic of NEC is often a single chapter in a paediatric surgical or neonatology text. This book is an invaluable guide for anyone caring for neonates.

Necrotizing Enterocolitis: pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment

by David Hackam

This is the first textbook devoted entirely to understanding and treating necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), one of the leading causes of death and disability in premature infants. NEC continues to occur in neonatal units across the world, and the overall mortality has remained stubbornly high since its first description decades ago. Despite significant research into NEC, and a greater understanding of its underlying causes, there is no single source of information to which the care team can turn for guidance. This book fills that important gap in clinical care. In selecting the topics for this inaugural textbook, three guiding principles have been followed. First, to include chapters that provide detailed information for the medical team – the doctors and nurses, the therapists and pharmacists, the chaplains and the child life workers – so that each team member can optimally recognize, prevent and treat patients with this disease. Second, to ensure that chapters cover the depth and breadth of the latest clinical and scientific research into NEC, each selected to identify specific preventative strategies or therapies for this disease. Third, and perhaps most importantly, to focus not only on the child with NEC, but also on the child’s family, in order to provide comprehensive information about a disease that families have barely heard about, until the jarring day when their precious infant is affected by it. This book therefore: serves as a "how-to guide" for the care of the infant with NEC summarises critical new research and offers guidelines for future key research areas addresses the complex and difficult issues surrounding care of the critically ill infant suffering from NEC Written for the entire health care team including paediatric surgeons, neonatologists, developmental paediatricians, epidemiologists, ethicists, child life professionals, therapists and specialist nurses, each team member will find this book of value. This book was written to demystify this cruel disease, and to unlock its closely held secrets of pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment and prevention.

Necrotizing Soft Tissue Infections: Clinical and Pathogenic Aspects (Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology #1294)

by Anna Norrby-Teglund Mattias Svensson Steinar Skrede

This volume aims to enhance the current understanding of clinical features, treatment and pathogenic aspects in necrotizing soft tissue infections. Various representative case studies are discussed to enhance the readers’ understanding of these complex diseases. Necrotizing soft tissue infections are rapidly spreading infections that may cause extensive soft tissue or limb loss, multiorgan failure and are associated with a considerable fatality rate. It is undisputed that rapid diagnosis and prompt intervention is directly related to survival. The initial presentation may be limited to unspecific symptoms such as tenderness, swelling, erythema and pain. Thus, diagnosis and management are challenging due to heterogeneity in clinical presentation, in co-morbidities, in microbiological aetiology, as well as in the pathogenic mechanisms. An international and multidisciplinary consortium, INFECT, has for the last 6 years been pursuing research aimed to advance the understanding of the clinical and pathogenic aspects of these infections. A central part has been to create a comprehensive clinical registry and associated biobank which have also formed the basis for the experimental studies. Using the INFECT patient cohort, as well as an integrated systems biology approach in patients and clinically relevant experimental models, an advanced insight of diagnostic features, causative microbial agents, treatment strategies, and pathogenic mechanisms (host and bacterial disease traits and their underlying interaction network) has been obtained.

by Van Gerven van den Engel-Hoek Ruessink Knuijt Kalf De Swart

Doel van de testHet NDO-K is een instrument waarmee de diagnose 'dysartrie' bij kinderen gesteld kan worden. Daarnaast kan met het instrument het type dysartrie en de ernst ervan worden vastgesteld. In Nederland was tot op heden geen dysartrieonderzoek voor kinderen beschikbaar. Met het verschijnen van het NDO-K is hierin verandering gekomen. Het NDO-K is een gestandaardiseerd, valide en betrouwbaar instrument dat kan bijdragen aan goede basis voor logopedische therapie. Het type en de ernst van de dysartrie worden in het NDO-K onderzocht met behulp van gestandaardiseerde spreekopdrachten. Alle aspecten van de spraak, te weten adem, fonatie, articulatie, nasale resonantie en prosodie worden met deze opdrachten in kaart gebracht. Het NDO-K is bedoeld voor kinderen bij wie een vermoeden bestaat van aanwezigheid van een dysartrie. Het instrument is geschikt om af te nemen in de acute fase, de revalidatiefase en de chronische fase.Toepassing•Diagnostiek: stelt de diagnose dysartrie en bepaalt het type en de ernst van de dysartrie.•Differentiaaldiagnose: het NDO-K onderscheidt dysartrie van andere spraakstoornissen.•Behandeling: vormt de basis voor een passend therapieplan.•Wetenschappelijk onderzoek: de maximum performancetaken en de leesteksten zijn geschikt voor het verzamelen van genormeerde data. Onderzoek heeft laten zien dat de ernstscore betrouwbaar vastgesteld kan worden. Wat onderzoekt het NDO-K?Het NDO-K onderzoekt alle aspecten van de spraak met behulp van 6 spreektaken, te weten:•1. spontane spraak•2. lezen van een standaard tekst of naspreektaken•3. diadochokinese•4. glijtonen•5. roepen•6. maximale aanhoudingsduurVoor wie?Het NDO-K kan door logopedisten afgenomen worden. Scoring en interpretatie kan betrouwbaar gedaan worden door logopedisten die ervaren en/of getraind zijn in het luisteren naar dysartrische spraak. Hiervoor worden ook NDO-K workshops gegeven door het Radboudumc, afdeling Revalidatie logopedie kinderen.
