Abstract

Background: Opioid overdose was declared a public health emergency in the United States, but much of the focus has been on adults. Child and adolescent exposure and access to unused prescription-opioid medications is a big concern. More research is needed on the trend of pediatric (age 0–17) prescription-opioid overdose emergency department (ED) visits in the United States, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic year. Methods: This retrospective epidemiological study used the 2008–2020 Nationwide Emergency Department Sample to provide a national estimate of ED visits related to prescription-opioid overdose. Inclusion criteria were 0-17-year-old patients treated at the ED due to prescription-opioid overdose. Eligible visits were identified if their medical records included any administrative billing codes for prescription-opioid overdose. National estimates were broken down by age groups, sex, geographic region, primary payer, median household income by zip code, ED disposition, and hospital location/teaching status. Incidence rate per 100,000 U.S. children was calculated for age groups, sex, and geographic region. Results: Overall, the prescription-opioid overdose ED visits for patients from 0–17 years old in the United States decreased by 22% from 2008 to 2019, then increased by 12% in 2020. Most patients were discharged to home following their ED visit; however, there was a 42% increase in patients admitted from 2019 to 2020. The prescription-opioid overdose rate per 100,000 U.S. children was highest in the 0 to 1 and 12 to 17 age groups, with the 12 to 17 group increasing by 27% in 2020. ED visits in the West and Midwest saw prescription-opioid visits increase by 58% and 20%, respectively, from 2019–2020. Conclusions: Prescription-opioid overdose ED visits among U.S. children and adolescents decreased over the past decade until 2019. However, there was a substantial increase in ED visits from 2019 to 2020, suggesting the potential impact due to the then-emerging COVID-19 pandemic. Findings suggest focusing on young children and adolescents to reduce further prescription-opioid overdoses in the United States. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The management of giant inguinoscrotal hernias remains a challenge as a result of the loss of the intra-abdominal domain from long-standing hernia contents within the scrotum. Multiple techniques have been described for abdominal wall relaxation and augmentation to allow the safe return of viscera from the scrotum to the intraperitoneal cavity without adversely affecting cardiorespiratory physiology. Preoperative progressive pneumoperitoneum, phrenectomy, and component separation are but a few common techniques previously described as adjuncts to the management of these massively large hernias. However, these strategies require an additional invasive stage, and reproducibility remains challenging. Botulinum toxin A (BTA) has been successfully used for the management of complex ventral hernias. Its use for these hernias has shown reproducibility and a low side effect profile. In the present report, we describe our institutional experience with BTA for giant inguinal hernias in two patients and present a review of the literature. In one case, a 77-year-old man with a substantial cardiac history presented with a giant left inguinal hernia that was interfering with his activities of daily living. He had BTA six weeks prior to inguinal hernia repair. Repair was performed via an inguinal incision with a favorable return of the viscera into the peritoneum. He was discharged on the same day of the operation. A second patient, 78 years of age, had a giant right inguinoscrotal hernia. He had a significant cardiac history and was treated with BTA six weeks prior to inguinal hernia repair via a groin incision. Neither patient had complaints nor recurrence at 7- and 3-month follow-ups. While the literature on this topic is scarce, we found 13 cases of inguinal hernias treated with BTA as an adjunct. BTA might be a promising adjunct for the management of giant inguinoscrotal hernias in addition to or in place of current strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Far more species of organisms are found in the tropics than in temperate and polar regions, but the evolutionary and ecological causes of this pattern remain controversial.sup.1,2. Tropical marine fish communities are much more diverse than cold-water fish communities found at higher latitudes.sup.3,4, and several explanations for this latitudinal diversity gradient propose that warm reef environments serve as evolutionary 'hotspots' for species formation.sup.5-8. Here we test the relationship between latitude, species richness and speciation rate across marine fishes. We assembled a time-calibrated phylogeny of all ray-finned fishes (31,526 tips, of which 11,638 had genetic data) and used this framework to describe the spatial dynamics of speciation in the marine realm. We show that the fastest rates of speciation occur in species-poor regions outside the tropics, and that high-latitude fish lineages form new species at much faster rates than their tropical counterparts. High rates of speciation occur in geographical regions that are characterized by low surface temperatures and high endemism. Our results reject a broad class of mechanisms under which the tropics serve as an evolutionary cradle for marine fish diversity and raise new questions about why the coldest oceans on Earth are present-day hotspots of species formation.Contrary to previous hypotheses, high-latitude fish lineages form new species at much faster rates than their tropical counterparts especially in geographical regions that are characterized by low surface temperatures and high endemism., Author(s): Daniel L.

32. NONSURGICAL RESOLUTION OF FULL-THICKNESS MACULAR HOLES WITHOUT VITREOMACULAR TRACTION.

Author

Richards, Paige J., Kulkarni, Amol D., Nork, T. Michael, Leys, Monique, Hinkle, David, Conlin, Karina A., Chang, Stanley, and Chang, Jonathan S.

Abstract

Background/Purpose: The purpose of this study was to report a case series of fullthickness macular holes without vitreomacular traction that resolved without surgery. Methods: This study is a retrospective case series of 11 patients who demonstrated closure of full-thickness macular holes without surgical intervention. Results: All full-thickness macular holes closed, with all patients having improvement in visual acuity. All but one of the cases had visual acuity better than 20/40 at last recorded visit. Most cases presented with associated epiretinal membrane (73%), cystoid changes (64%), defects µ150 mm (80%), and resolved within 2 months (91%). Topical anti-inflammatory drops were used in 7 of 11 cases, and dorzolamide was used in one case. Conclusion: Full-thickness macular holes can develop in eyes without the presence of vitreomacular traction. Topical therapy without vitrectomy may be particularly helpful in closure of full-thickness macular holes with associated cystoid macular edema. Holes with a lamellar hole component may spontaneously resolve as part of a retinal remodeling process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

The intracellular protein HMGB1 is released from cells and acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern molecule during many diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); however, the intracellular function of HMGB1 during inflammation is poorly understood. Here, we demonstrated that cytosolic HMGB1 regulates apoptosis by protecting the autophagy proteins beclin 1 and ATG5 from calpain-mediated cleavage during inflammation. Colitis in mice with an intestinal epithelial cell-specific Hmgbl deletion and patients with IBD were both characterized by increased calpain activation, beclin 1 and ATG5 cleavage, and intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) death compared with controls. In vitro cleavage assays and studies of enteroids verified that HMGB1 protects beclin 1 and ATG5 from calpain-mediated cleavage events that generate proapoptotic protein fragments. Together, our results indicate that HMGB1 is essential for mitigating the extent and severity of inflammation-associated cellular injury by controlling the switch between the proautophagic and proapoptotic functions of beclin 1 and ATG5 during inflammation. Moreover, these studies demonstrate that HMGB1 is pivotal for reducing tissue injury in IBD and other complex inflammatory disorders., Introduction Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic, debilitating disorders caused by gastrointestinal mucosal damage and inflammation. Two separate but related disease phenotypes make up IBD: Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative [...]

41. STELLATE NONHEREDITARY IDIOPATHIC FOVEOMACULAR RETINOSCHISIS: NOVEL FINDINGS AND OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY ANALYSIS.

Author

Schildroth, Kathleen R., Mititelu, Mihai, Etheridge, Tyler, Holman, Ian, and Chang, Jonathan S.

Abstract

Three cases of stellate nonhereditary idiopathic foveomacular retinoschisis are presented with novel findings including the progressive nature of foveal involvement and the lack of response to topical dorzolamide and intravitreal bevacizumab. Optical coherence tomography angiography findings were similar to the uninvolved fellow eye, pointing to preserved vasculature despite distortions in anatomy. Purpose: To present novel findings in stellate nonhereditary idiopathic foveomacular retinoschisis, including the largest series of optical coherence tomography angiography findings to date. Methods: A retrospective case series with multimodal imaging was obtained and reviewed. Results: All three patients were women, aged 59–63. Two cases were unilateral, and one was bilateral. Vision ranged from 20/20 to 20/60 in the affected eyes. Peripheral retinoschisis was observed in all three patients. All patients were followed for a minimum of 1 year. In one case, progressive macular retinoschisis leading to foveal involvement was observed over two years, with an associated vision decline from 20/25 to 20/60. Attempted interventions included topical dorzolamide in all cases and intravitreal bevacizumab in one patient; however, no treatment effect was observed. The foveal avascular zone size was within normal limits (mean 280 µ m). In all stellate nonhereditary idiopathic foveomacular retinoschisis eyes, the retinoschisis cavities were nonvascular. Conclusion: Novel findings regarding stellate nonhereditary idiopathic foveomacular retinoschisis include the progressive nature of foveal involvement and the lack of response to topical dorzolamide and intravitreal bevacizumab. Foveal avascular zone was normal in all eyes, consistent with the relatively preserved vision in these cases. Retinoschisis cavities were nonvascular in all eyes, a finding which may give insight into the mechanism of this disease. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
