Diffusion basis spectrum imaging for identifying pathologies in MS subtypes: AbstractDiffusion basis spectrum imaging (DBSI) combines discrete anisotropic diffusion tensors and the spectrum of isotropic diffusion tensors to model the underlying multiple sclerosis (MS) pathologies. We used clinical MS subtypes as a surrogate of underlying pathologies to assess DBSI as a biomarker of pathology in 55 individuals with MS. Restricted isotropic fraction (reflecting cellularity) and fiber fraction (representing...

Issues with the Detection of Large Genomic Rearrangements in Molecular Diagnosis of 21-Hydroxylase DeficiencyAbstractMore than 95% of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) cases are associated with mutations in the 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21A2) in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class III area on the short arm of chromosome 6p21.3. In the diagnosis of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, CYP21A2 genotyping is a valuable complement to biochemical investigations. Genotyping can confirm the diagnosis (or carrier...

The "things themselves": challenging heuristics and inciting empathy via Husserlian phenomenologyAbstractI propose that the phenomenology of Edmund Husserl provides a meaningful mode of access to the patient experience. By reflecting on a real-life encounter with grief, my own medical training, and two works of literature, Nausea and Love in the Time of Cholera, I illustrate the application of philosophy and specifically phenomenology to clinical education. Phenomenology allows clinicians to strip...
Comparison of the Physical Properties and in vivo Bioactivities of Flatwise-Spun Silk Mats and Cocoon-Derived Silk Mats for Guided Bone RegenerationAbstractThe main flaw of silkworm cocoon originated membranes for guided bone regeneration (GBR) techniques is that the maximum size of the membrane is determined by the size of the cocoon. Flatwise-spun silk does not have any limitation to its production size. The objective of this study was to compare flatwise-spun silk mats with cocoon-derived silk...
