Mount Sinai Otolaryngology Specialty Report 2018Lisa Chase
1) Dr. Wanna developed an endoscopic technique for removing glomus tumors without external incisions using a suctioning endoscope. This reduces pain for patients and allows for improved visualization for surgeons compared to traditional open surgery.
2) A clinical trial at Vanderbilt University and Mount Sinai found a 100% success rate with improved hearing and no complications using this new endoscopic technique.
3) The endoscopic approach is becoming the new gold standard for removing smaller glomus tumors as it provides benefits over traditional open surgery such as reduced pain, scarring and faster recovery times for patients.

Robotic systems are increasingly being used in orthopaedic surgery to improve accuracy and consistency when performing procedures like total hip replacements, unicompartmental knee replacements, and anterior lumbar interbody fusions. These systems can be autonomous, haptic/surgeon-guided, or passive, and preliminary results suggest robotic assistance may lead to short-term improvements in clinical and radiological outcomes compared to traditional techniques. The precision and accuracy afforded by robotic surgery is well-suited for operations on bones and may help achieve better long-term outcomes by more accurately placing implants and balancing tissues.

This article provides an introduction to advanced neuroimaging techniques including functional MRI (fMRI), diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and their clinical applications. fMRI detects changes in blood oxygenation related to neural activation and is used to map functional areas of the brain. DTI visualizes white matter tracts by measuring the anisotropy of water diffusion. DWI is sensitive to restricted diffusion and used to detect acute ischemia or cellular abnormalities. These techniques provide complementary structural and functional information for clinical applications such as pre-surgical planning, assessing white matter tract involvement, and monitoring treatment response.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.

Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
