RESUMEN

Although simple γ-lactones and γ-lactams have received considerable attention from the synthetic community, particularly due to their relevance in biological and medicinal contexts, stereoselective synthetic approaches to more densely substituted derivatives remain scarce. The in-depth study presented herein, showcasing a straightforward method for the stereocontrolled synthesis of γ-lactones and γ-lactams, builds on and considerably expands the stereodivergent synthesis of 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds by a ynamide/vinyl sulfoxide coupling. A full mechanistic and computational study of the rearrangement was conducted, uncovering the role of all of the reaction components and providing a rationale for stereoselection. The broad applicability of the developed tools to streamlining synthesis is demonstrated by concise enantioselective total syntheses of (+)-nephrosteranic acid, (+)-rocellaric acid, and (+)-nephromopsinic acid.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic exerted an unprecedented impact on the blood supply from 2020 through 2022. As a result, throughout 2021 there were months our hospital had less than one-day supply of type O RBCs. To meet transfusion needs, whole RBC units were split into half units and issued to stable, non-bleeding patients. This single-institution, retrospective study examines time intervals to subsequent transfusion and total numbers of RBC units subsequently transfused after the first half or whole RBC unit. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: Patients who were transfused RBC between May 21, 2021 and November 1, 2021 were divided into in- and outpatient groups, then based on whether they received at least 1 half RBC unit or only whole RBC units during the study period. The time interval between this first half unit transfusion, or first whole unit transfusion in those who did not receive half units, and the subsequent RBC transfusion within 90 days was calculated and compared, as well as the total number of RBC units transfused 30 days after the first unit. RESULTS: In general, patients transfused with half units received a subsequent transfusion significantly earlier than those transfused with whole units. Additionally, receiving an index half unit was associated with more RBC transfusions in the following 30 days (p = .001). CONCLUSION: Transfusion of half RBC units during a severe RBC blood shortage can temporarily decrease RBC usage but will result in a shorter interval to the next transfusion and greater total number of RBC units transfused in subsequent days.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Intraarticular hip pain represents a substantial clinical challenge, with recent studies implicating lesions in the ligamentum teres as potential contributors. Even more so, damage to the ligamentum teres is particularly prevalent among young patients undergoing joint-preserving interventions. Although several studies have investigated the biomechanical attributes of the ligamentum teres, inconsistencies in reported findings and reliance on cadaveric or animal models have raised concerns regarding the extrapolation of results to clinical practice. Furthermore, there is a lack of research examining ligamentum teres biomechanics specifically within the relevant patient cohort-individuals who benefit from joint-preserving surgical interventions. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: We sought (1) to determine the biomechanical properties (ultimate load to failure, tensile strength, stiffness, and elastic modulus) of fresh-frozen ligaments from patients undergoing surgical hip dislocation, and (2) to identify patient-specific factors that are associated with them. METHODS: This was an institutional review board-approved study on intraoperatively harvested ligamentum teres from 74 consecutive patients undergoing surgical hip dislocation for joint preservation (August 2021 to September 2022). After the exclusion of patients with previous surgery, posttraumatic deformities, avascular necrosis, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and Perthes disease, 31 ligaments from 31 patients were analyzed. The mean age of the study group was 27 ± 8 years, and 61% (19) of participants were male. The main indication for surgery was femoroacetabular impingement. Standardized AP pelvic and axial radiographs and CT scans were performed in all patients for better radiological description of the population and to identify associated radiological factors. The ligament was thoroughly transected at its origin on the fossa acetabuli and at the insertion area on the fovea capitis and stored at -20°C until utilization. Specimens were mounted to a materials testing machine via custom clamps that minimized slippage and the likelihood of failure at the clamp. Force-displacement and stress-strain curves were generated. Ultimate failure load (N), tensile strength (MPa), stiffness (N/mm), and elastic modulus (MPa) were determined. Using a multivariate regression analysis and a subgroup analysis, we tested demographic, degenerative, and radiographic factors as potential associated factors. RESULTS: The ligamentum teres demonstrated an ultimate load to failure of 126 ± 92 N, and the tensile strength was 1 ± 1 MPa. The ligaments exhibited a stiffness of 24 ± 15 N/mm and an elastic modulus of 7 ± 5 MPa. After controlling for potential confounding variables like age, fossa/fovea degeneration, and acetabular/femoral morphologies, we found that female sex was an independent factor for higher tensile strength, stiffness, and elastic modulus. Excessive femoral version was independently associated with lower load to failure (HR 122 [95% CI 47 to 197]) and stiffness (HR 15 [95% CI 2 to 27]). Damage to the acetabular fossa was associated with reduced load to failure (HR -93 [95% CI -159 to -27]). CONCLUSION: Overall, the ligamentum teres is a relatively weak ligament. Sex, degeneration, and excessive femoral version are influencing factors on strength of the ligamentum teres. The ligamentum teres exhibits lower strength compared with other joint-stabilizing ligaments, which calls into question its overall contribution to hip stability. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Young patients undergoing hip-preserving surgery are the population at risk for ligamentum teres lesions. Baseline values for load to failure, tensile strength, elastic modulus, and stiffness are needed to better understand those lesions in this cohort of interest.

RESUMEN

Subcutaneous emphysema, the presence of air in the subcutaneous layer of the skin, is a possible result of surgical, infectious, or spontaneous etiologies. Although usually self-limiting, the development of subcutaneous emphysema in the perioperative period has been associated with delayed extubation and the development of complications such as pneumomediastinum, pneumoperitoneum, and pneumothorax and can worsen clinical outcomes in these patients. Here, we report the case of a 57-year-old male patient who presented to the operating room (OR) for a robotic total colectomy due to Lynch syndrome. The procedure was complicated by the development of diffuse, severe subcutaneous emphysema, which was recognized by palpable crepitus and obscuration of anatomical landmarks during an attempted transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block for pain control prior to patient extubation. The decision was made to leave the patient intubated and managed postoperatively in the ICU, where radiographic and computerized tomography (CT) scans confirmed the severity of subcutaneous emphysema. Hemodynamic and respiratory status were managed in the ICU and on postoperative day 3 the patient passed an endotracheal cuff leak test and was extubated. The patient was transferred to a surgical step-down on postoperative day 7 and following the resolution of ileus and acute kidney injury (AKI), he was discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 17.

RESUMEN

Cutaneous metastatic disease from primary gastric cancer is quite scarce, often going unrecognized. In this case, the patient presented with an expanding rash that was biopsied, with findings concerning for metastatic adenocarcinoma from a suspected luminal upper gastrointestinal origin. Subsequent biopsies during an esophagogastroduodenoscopy confirmed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma with signet ring cell features, most likely from an upper gastrointestinal primary (gastric vs gastroesophageal junction). We review this case to help providers identify signet cell type cutaneous metastases of gastric cancer quickly to improve patient outcomes.

RESUMEN

Esophageal cancer is common and typically metastasizes to the liver, lung, and lymph nodes. Reproductive tract metastases are extremely rare. In fact, to the best of our knowledge, only 2 cases of esophageal carcinoma metastasizing to the ovaries have been reported. Thus, increased recognition of unusual metastatic sites is necessary to decrease the morbidity and mortality from distant esophageal metastases. We present a case of ovarian and fallopian tube metastases from esophageal adenocarcinoma in a 59-year-old woman.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: A growing body of research has called attention to limitations to reproductive autonomy in both women who are socially disadvantaged and in those who have had contact with the criminal legal (CL) system. However, it is unclear whether CL system contact influences contraceptive use patterns and how these processes unfold. We utilize a mixed-methods approach to investigate whether history of arrest is associated with receipt of contraceptive counseling, use of long-term contraception, sterilization, and subsequent desire for reversal of sterilization. We further consider how agents in and around the CL system may influence women's reproductive decisions and outcomes (856 survey respondents; 10 interviewees). RESULTS: We observe that women who have been arrested more commonly report receipt of contraceptive counseling and sterilization. They are also significantly more likely to want their sterilization reversed. Our in-depth interviews suggest that women with CL contact experience considerable shame, and in some cases, coercion to limit fertility from various agents in and outside the criminal legal system including medical providers, Parole/Probation Officers (POs), guards, and family members. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest the need for ongoing attention to how exposure to this system may promote uneven use of certain forms of contraception and dissatisfaction, i.e., desire for reversal of sterilization, among these women. Findings further suggest that de-emphasizing the CL system as a means through which to address reproductive needs should be considered.

RESUMEN

Introduction Total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) is an effective treatment for end-stage ankle arthritis. Recent surgical and technological advances have led to a significant increase in the surgical volume of TAA. While a majority of ankle arthritis is post-traumatic in nature, other causes include autoimmune or inflammatory conditions. Medical management of these conditions frequently requires chronic corticosteroid administration, which is a well-established risk factor for complications following surgery. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between chronic preoperative steroid use and postoperative complications following TAA. Methods The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement (NSQIP) database was analyzed to identify all patients who underwent TAA between 2015 and 2020. Patient characteristics including demographics, comorbidities, surgical characteristics, and 30-day postoperative complication data were collected. The data was analyzed using bivariate and multivariate logistic regression to identify all postoperative complications associated with chronic preoperative steroid use. Results A total of 1,606 patients were included in this study: 1,533 (95.5%) were included in the non-steroid cohort, and 73 (4.5%) were included in the chronic steroid cohort. Chronic steroid use was significantly associated with female sex (p < 0.001) and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) ≥3 (p < 0.001). Chronic steroid use was not associated with superficial surgical site infection (SSI) (p = 0.634) or wound dehiscence (p = 0.999). The postoperative complication that was significantly associated with chronic steroid use was sepsis (p = 0.031). After adjusting for female sex and the ASA grade, chronic steroid use was found to be independently associated with sepsis (p = 0.013). Conclusion Preoperative chronic steroid use is not associated with superficial SSI or wound dehiscence within 30 days following TAA. As TAA becomes a more attractive alternative to ankle arthrodesis, a better understanding of preoperative risk factors can aid in widening indications and knowing what patients are at risk for complications.

RESUMEN

Amyloidosis is a group of rare deposition diseases marked by the accumulation of abnormal fibrillar proteins in the extracellular space of various tissues. In both AL and AA amyloidosis, the most common variants, isolated involvement to any one organ is uncommon and involvement to the colon alone is especially rare. We present the case of a patient who was initially found to have AL amyloidosis on prior screening colonoscopy that was reconfirmed several years with repeat evaluation for chronic constipation. This disease process is often insidious and can be overlooked by providers given the lack of overwhelming symptoms.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: There is no clear consensus regarding patient populations at highest risk for complications from simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The purpose of this study was to determine whether the comorbidities comprising the modified Frailty Index (mFI) were correlated with poor outcomes following simultaneous bilateral TKA. METHODS: From 2006 to 2019, patients undergoing bilateral TKA aged 50 years or older were identified in a national database. The 5-item mFI was calculated based on the presence of five comorbidities: diabetes, congestive heart failure, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and dependent functional status. Chi-squared and multivariable regression analyses were used to evaluate the association of mFI scores with postoperative complications. RESULTS: The study analyzed 8,776 patients with an average age of 65 years. After adjustment on multivariable regression analysis, compared to patients with a mFI score of 0, those with a score of 1 had an increased risk of pulmonary complication (OR 3.14; p = 0.011), renal problem (OR 12.86; p = 0.022), sepsis complication (OR 2.82; p = 0.024), postoperative transfusion (OR 1.19; p = 0.012), and non-home discharge (OR 1.17; p = 0.002).Patients with a score of 2 compared to 0 had similar complications when compared. These patients had an increased risk of cardiac complication (OR 4.84; p = 0.009) and prolonged hospital stay (OR 4.06; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Increased mFI scores were associated with significantly higher complication rates in patients undergoing simultaneous bilateral TKA compared to unilateral TKA. Our results can be used to identify which patients may need a staged bilateral TKA or preoperative optimization to safely undergo a simultaneous bilateral TKA. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III.

RESUMEN

Background: Previous studies of the cortical suspensory button (CSB) implant have analyzed fixation strength as a function of suture type and surgical technique, but knot configuration remains an area of interest. This study investigates 4-strand knot configurations in CSB suspensory fixation, specifically comparing the use of 2 separate knots with a single knot. We hypothesize that using 2 knots on the distal side of the CSB with #2 suture will yield the strongest and stiffest suspensory fixation. Methods: Two types of knot configurations were compared: a single knot with all 4 suture strands versus 2 independent knots with 2 suture strands each (1 knot from inner strands and 1 knot from outer strands). They were tested using #2 or 2-0 suture, and at distal (on top of the button) or proximal (underneath the button) knot positions. Mechanical testing on the Instron measured ultimate failure load, elongation at failure, and stiffness. Statistical analyses (Shapiro-Wilk, unpaired Student's t-tests, and Chi-square tests) assessed differences in strength, stiffness, elongation, and failure mode between knot configurations within each CSB construct combination. Results: With #2 suture, 2 knots across the CSB resulted in higher load to failure compared to 1 knot in both proximal (467.00 N vs. 554.66 N, P = .026) and distal (395.18 N vs. 526.51 N, P < .001) locations. Furthermore, 2 knots provided higher stiffness than 1 knot in both proximal (53.24 N/mm vs. 67.89 N/mm, P < .001) and distal (47.08 N/mm vs. 56.73 N/mm, P = .041) knot locations. However, using 2-0 suture showed no significant differences in failure load and stiffness regardless of knot location. Conclusion: Using #2 suture and tying 2 independent knots across the CSB increased load to failure and stiffness compared to using only 1 knot regardless of knot position. Thus, if using #2 suture, it is recommended to tie 2 knots to enhance construct strength. However, with 2-0 suture, the number of knots did not impact construct strength. Therefore, if using 2-0 suture, 1 knot can be used to save time. Knot position did not significantly affect the strength or stiffness of the CSB construct, emphasizing the importance of considering knot prominence and surgical approach for determining knot location.

RESUMEN

Background: Some patients with proximal rectus femoris (PRF) avulsions require surgical treatment after failed nonoperative treatment. There is no consensus on the superiority of suture anchor repair with the suture-bridge repair (SBR) technique versus tenodesis repair (TR) for PRF avulsions. Purpose: To compare the failure load and elongation at failure between SBR and TR and to compare the stiffness of these 2 repair techniques versus the native state. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Seven pairs of human cadaveric hemipelvises were dissected to the PRF and sartorius origins. Each specimen underwent preconditioning followed by a distraction test to determine the stiffness of the native specimen. One specimen of each pair received one of the repair methods (SBR or TR), while the other specimen in the pair received the other repair technique. After repair, each specimen underwent preconditioning followed by a pull to failure. The failure load, elongation at failure, stiffness, mode of failure, and stiffness as a percentage of the native state were determined for each repair. Results: The SBR group exhibited a stronger failure load (223 ± 51 N vs 153 ± 32 N for the TR group; P = .0116) and significantly higher stiffness as a percentage from the native state (70.4% ± 19% vs 33.8% ± 15.5% for the TR group; P = .0085). While the stiffness of the repair state in the SBR group (41.5 ± 9.4 N/mm) was not significantly different from that of the native state (66.2 ± 36 N/mm), the stiffness of the repair state in the TR group (20.3 ± 7.5 N/mm) was significantly lower compared with that of the native state (65.4 ± 22.1 N/mm; P < .001) and repair state in the SBR group (41.5 ± 9.4 N/mm; P = .02). The SBR group primarily failed at the repair site (71%), and the TR group primarily failed at the suture-sartorius interface (43%) and at the muscle (29%). Conclusion: SBR and TR specimens were significantly weaker than the native tendon. The stiffness of the SBR was equivalent to that of the native tendon, while TR was significantly less stiff than the native tendon. The SBR was superior to TR in terms of failure load, stiffness, and percentage stiffness from the native state. Clinical Relevance: SBR may be a better surgical option than TR to optimize failure load and stiffness for PRF avulsions.

RESUMEN

Purpose: The incidence of distal radius fractures (DRFs) in the United States is more than 640,000 cases per year and is projected to increase. The overall prevalence of anemia in the United States increased from 5.71% in 2005 to 6.86% in 2018. Therefore, preoperative anemia may be an important risk factor to consider before surgical fixation of a distal radius fracture. The purpose of this study was to investigate preoperative anemia and its association with short-term complications after surgical treatment of DRFs. Methods: The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was queried for all patients who underwent open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) of DRFs between 2015 and 2020. The initial pool of patients was divided into cohorts based on preoperative hematocrit. Multivariate logistic regression, adjusted for all significantly associated patient demographics and comorbidities, was used to identify associations between preoperative anemia and postoperative complications after ORIF of DRFs. Results: A total of 22,923 patients who underwent ORIF of DRFs were identified in National Surgical Quality Improvement Program from 2015 to 2020. Of the 12,068 patients remaining after exclusion criteria, 9,616 (79.7%) patients were included in the normal cohort, 2,238 (18.5%) patients were included in the mild anemia cohort, and 214 (1.8%) patients were included in the severe anemia cohort. Compared with the reference cohort, patients with any anemia were independently associated with higher rates of reintubation (odds ratio [OR], 6.51; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.29-32.80; P = .023), blood transfusion (OR, 11.83; 95% CI, 3.95-35.45; P < .001), septic shock (OR, 10.76; 95% CI, 1.19-97.02; P = .034), readmission (OR, 2.10; 95% CI, 1.60-2.76; P < .001), nonhome discharge (OR, 2.22; 95% CI, 1.84-2.68; P < .001), and mortality (OR, 2.70; 1.03-7.07; P = .043). Conclusions: Preoperative anemia, both mild and severe, were clinically significant predictors for postoperative complications within 30-day after ORIF of DRFs. Severe anemia was associated with higher rates of blood transfusion, nonhome discharge, and mortality compared with mild anemia. Type of study/level of evidence: Prognostic III.

RESUMEN

Follicular lymphoma (FL) is a common form of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Although extranodal involvement of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is common in lymphomas, primary GI-FL confined to the GI tract is relatively rare. The disease process is typically indolent in nature and usually incidentally found. Among this subset of patients, the duodenum and terminal ileum tend to be the most common site of origin. Here, we present a rare case of primary multifocal GI-FL that found incidentally during routine colonoscopy with subsequent esophagogastroduodenoscopy and video capsule endoscopy revealing duodenal, jejunal, and sigmoid colon involvement.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: The centrosome is universally recognized as the microtubule organizing center of animal cells, but emerging evidence suggests that it has other important functions including primary cilia formation, DNA damage checkpoints, and cell cycle progression. Despite this, the role of individual components of the centrosome remains unclear. Previous studies suggest that one component, centriolin, has an important function in cytokinesis and cell cycle progression, although its exact role in these processes is not known. To determine how centriolin influences the progression through the cell cycle, we sought to identify interacting partners that may be involved in regulating its function. RESULTS: This study provides evidence that the ubiquitin E3 ligase HectD1 binds to centriolin and that this association likely accounts for our observation that HectD1 co-localizes with centriolin at the centrosome during mitosis. In addition to its centrosomal localization, we also show that the expression of HectD1 fluctuates throughout the cell cycle, with the highest levels during mitosis, coinciding with a marked reduction in centriolin expression. We propose that the interaction between HectD1 and centriolin may be necessary for normal cell cycle progression and we speculate that this function may involve HectD1-mediated degradation of centriolin.

RESUMEN

Background: In the Latarjet procedure, the ideal placement of the coracoid graft in the medial-lateral position is flush with the anterior glenoid rim. However, the ideal position of the graft in the superior-inferior position (sagittal plane) for restoring glenohumeral joint stability is still controversial. Purpose: To compare coracoid graft clockface positions between the traditional 3 to 5 o'clock and a more inferior (for the right shoulder) 4 to 6 o'clock with regard to glenohumeral joint stability in the Latarjet procedure. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: A total of 10 fresh-frozen cadaveric shoulders were tested in a dynamic, custom-built robotic shoulder model. Each shoulder was loaded with a 50-N compressive load while an 80-N force was applied in the anteroinferior axes at 90° of abduction and 60° of shoulder external rotation. Four conditions were tested: (1) intact, (2) 6-mm glenoid bone loss (GBL), (3) Latarjet procedure fixed at 3- to 5-o'clock position, and (4) Latarjet procedure fixed at 4- to 6-o'clock position. The stability ratio (SR) and degree of lateral humeral displacement (LHD) were recorded. A 1-factor random-intercepts linear mixed-effects model and Tukey method were used for statistical analysis. Results: Compared with the intact state (1.77 ± 0.11), the SR was significantly lower after creating a 6-mm GBL (1.14 ± 0.61, P = .009), with no significant difference in SR after Latarjet 3 to 5 o'clock (1.51 ± 0.70, P = .51) or 4 to 6 o'clock (1.55 ± 0.68, P = .52). Compared with the intact state (6.48 ± 2.24 mm), LHD decreased significantly after GBL (3.16 ± 1.56 mm, P < .001) and Latarjet 4 to 6 o'clock (5.48 ± 3.39 mm, P < .001). Displacement decreased significantly after Latarjet 3 to 5 o'clock (4.78 ± 2.50 mm, P = .04) compared with the intact state but not after Latarjet 4 to 6 o'clock (P = .71). Conclusion: The Latarjet procedure in both coracoid graft positions (3-5 and 4-6 o'clock) restored the SR to the values measured in the intact state. A more inferior graft position (fixed at 4-6 o'clock) may improve shoulder biomechanics, but additional work is needed to establish clinical relevance. Clinical Relevance: An inferior coracoid graft fixation, the 4- to 6-o'clock position, may benefit in restoring normal shoulder biomechanics after the Latarjet procedure.

RESUMEN

Este artículo se ocupa del mal en Rousseau, recurriendo a cuatro imágenes, a saber: la vida social (socie-dad) y el hombre social (homme de l ́homme), en contraste con el estado de naturaleza (état de nature) y el hombre natural (homme naturel). Imágenes de orden lógico, esto es, filosófico argumentativas, que exponen la tensión y el alejamiento del hombre con respecto a su naturaleza. El supuesto indica que este alejamiento se eleva como la imposibilidad del conocimiento pleno de sí; convierte al ser humano en alguien extraño para sí que hipostasia su concepto en las determinaciones de la vida social. El método utilizado se desprende de la filosofía misma de Rousseau. El procedimiento se organiza con la identificación y presen-tación de un supuesto y su desarrollo lógico mediante argumentos que requieren la selección, organización y sistematización de fuentes encaminadas a exponer el supuesto en toda su complejidad


This article deals with evil in Rousseau, resorting to four images, namely. Social life (society) and social man (Homme de l'homme) are in contrast to (contrast with)) the state of nature (état de nature) and the natural man (Homme naturel). Images of logical order, that is, argumentative philosophical, which expose the tension and distance of man from his nature. The assumption indicates that this estrangement rises as the impossibility of full self-knowledge; it turns the human being into someone foreign to himself who hypostasia his concept in the determinations of social life. The method used follows from Rousseau's philosophy. The procedure is organized with the identification and presentation of an assumption and its logical development through arguments that require the selection, organization, and systematization of sources aimed at exposing the assumption in all its complexity.

RESUMEN

RESUMEN Introducción: El envejecimiento está asociado con la aparición o aumento de afecciones estomatológicas. Objetivo: Identificar los factores asociados a lesiones bucales premalignas en pacientes mayores de 60 años.
