Abstract

Objective This study assesses a new departmental role—a professionalism mentor—who receives sexual harassment reporting, liaisons with campus resources, and organizes educational sessions. Study Design Multicenter randomized controlled survey study. Methods Academic ophthalmology departments in the United States were randomized to a professionalism mentor group (n = 9) and a control group (n = 7). Among both pre- and postsurveys, 605 faculty and trainee responses were received and 546 were complete. The intervention group was assigned a professionalism mentor with educational session for a 6- to 10-month period. Sexual harassment and reporting rate change over time were compared between the two groups. Results Among 546 anonymous responses, 16% experienced workplace sexual harassment during the prior 10 months. Location in the South or Midwest was a risk factor (p

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate nerve fiber layer (NFL) reflectance for glaucoma diagnosis. Methods: Participants were imaged with 4.5X4.5-mm volumetric disc scans using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). The normalized NFL reflectance map was processed by an azimuthal filter to reduce directional reflectance bias due to variation of beam incidence angle. The peripapillary area of the map was divided into 160 superpixels. Average reflectance was the mean of superpixel reflectance. Low-reflectance superpixels were identified as those with NFL reflectance below the 5 percentile normative cutoff. Focal reflectance loss was measure by summing loss in low-reflectance superpixels. Results: Thirty-five normal, 30 pre-perimetric and 35 perimetric glaucoma participants were enrolled. Azimuthal filtering improved the repeatability of the normalized NFL reflectance, as measured by the pooled superpixel standard deviation (SD), from 0.73 to 0.57 dB (p, pages: 31; Tables: 6; Figures: 9

Abstract

Maternal hemoglobin concentration is inversely related to newborn size presumably through plasma volume constriction. We sought to determine whether birth weight would show an inverse relationship to hemoglobin concentration in a group of infants whose mothers had preeclampsia, where plasma volume constriction is common.Electronic and paper chart review identified 142 nulliparous women with preeclampsia (excluding hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelets syndrome). Birth weight percentile was determined based on cross-sectional hybrid growth curves. Maximal third trimester maternal hemoglobin concentrations were obtained and standardised to z-scores based on gestational age matched normative data. Birth weight percentile was examined as a function of hemoglobin z-score using appropriate statistics.Average gestational age at delivery was 35.9 +/- 1.9 weeks. Mean birth weight percentile for infants of preeclamptic mothers was 34 +/- 32. Mean hemoglobin z-score for mothers with preeclampsia was 0.3 +/- 1.5, significantly higher than a control population (p = 0.04). Maternal hemoglobin z-score was inversely associated with birth weight percentile (r = -0.18, p = 0.03).Maternal hemoglobin concentrations are significantly elevated prior to delivery in women with preeclampsia. There is a statistically significant inverse correlation of maternal hemoglobin concentration to birth weight percentile.
