Epstein HE, Kanevskiy M, Liljedahl AK, Zhang W.
GSID: 3ga5H4iGyi8J
W Zhang, AK Liljedahl, M Kanevskiy, HE Epstein… - Remote Sensing, 2020 - mdpi.com

State-of-the-art deep learning technology has been successfully applied to relatively small selected areas of very high spatial resolution (0.15 and 0.25 m) optical aerial imagery acquired by a fixed-wing aircraft to automatically characterize ice-wedge polygons (IWPs) in the Arctic...

Scapho-capitate Syndrome Variant: 180-Degree Rotation of the Proximal Capitate Fragment Without Identifiable Scaphoid Fracture.

Radiology case reports

Robbins MM, Nemade AB, Chen TB, Epstein RE.
PMID: 27303543
Radiol Case Rep. 2015 Nov 06;3(3):193. doi: 10.2484/rcr.v3i3.193. eCollection 2008.

Scapho-capitate fractures, also known as Fenton's Syndrome, occur very rarely. We report a case of a variant capitate fracture with a 180 degree rotation of the proximal fragment and no identifiable scaphoid fracture. Prompt identification of this fracture is...

Spinal case of the month with short perspective: How would you treat this L3-L4 synovial cyst?.

Epstein NE.
PMID: 29576907
Surg Neurol Int. 2018 Mar 07;9:56. doi: 10.4103/sni.sni_27_18. eCollection 2018.

BACKGROUND: In this new section, Case of the Month with Short Perspective from Surgical Neurology International, we want to see how various spine surgeons would approach different spinal pathologies. In this first case, an elderly male presented with 3...

24-48 hour preoperative "surveillance" lower extremity venous Doppler's: Aren't they worthwhile prior to spine surgery?.

Surgical neurology international

Epstein NE.
PMID: 28144488
Surg Neurol Int. 2016 Dec 26;7:S1075-S1079. doi: 10.4103/2152-7806.196763. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Most previous studies focused on the utility of Doppler surveillance to determine the incidence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) following spine surgery. Here, we utilized Doppler surveillance to assess the frequency of DVT prior to spine surgery.METHODS: We...

Preliminary documentation of the comparable efficacy of vitoss versus NanOss bioactive as bone graft expanders for posterior cervical fusion.

Surgical neurology international

Epstein NE.
PMID: 26005578
Surg Neurol Int. 2015 May 07;6:S164-71. doi: 10.4103/2152-7806.156559. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: Laminectomies with posterior cervical instrumented fusions often utilize bone graft expanders to supplement cervical lamina/iliac crest autograft/bone marrow aspirate (BMA). Here we compared posterior fusion rates utilizing two graft expanders; Vitoss (Orthovita, Malvern, PA, USA) vs. NanOss Bioactive...

Systems Genetics Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Study Reveals Novel Associations Between Key Biological Processes and Coronary Artery Disease.

OBJECTIVE: Genome-wide association studies have identified multiple genetic variants affecting the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, individually these explain only a small fraction of the heritability of CAD and for most, the causal biological mechanisms remain unclear....

Fabrication of high-quality graphene oxide nanoscrolls and application in supercapacitor.

Nanoscale research letters

Fan T, Zeng W, Niu Q, Tong S, Cai K, Liu Y, Huang W, Min Y, Epstein AJ.
PMID: 25977663
Nanoscale Res Lett. 2015 Apr 21;10:192. doi: 10.1186/s11671-015-0894-3. eCollection 2015.

We reported a simple and effective way of fabricating one-dimensional (1D) graphene oxide nanoscrolls (GONS) from graphene oxide (GO) sheets through shock cooling by liquid nitrogen. The corresponding mechanism of rolling was proposed. One possibility is the formation of...

Few patients with neurodegenerative disorders require spinal surgery.

Surgical neurology international

Epstein NE, Gottesman M.
PMID: 24843817
Surg Neurol Int. 2014 Apr 16;5:S81-7. doi: 10.4103/2152-7806.130685. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: Few patients with neurodegenerative disorders (ND) (e.g., Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), and Postpolio Syndrome (PPS)) require spinal surgery. Typically, their neurological symptoms and signs reflect their underlying neurologic disorders rather than structural spinal pathology reported...

Cervical surgery for ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament: One spine surgeon's perspective.

Surgical neurology international

Epstein NE.
PMID: 24843818
Surg Neurol Int. 2014 Apr 16;5:S88-92. doi: 10.4103/2152-7806.130693. eCollection 2014.

BACKGROUND: The selection, neurodiagnostic evaluation, and surgical management of patients with cervical ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) remain controversial. Whether for prophylaxis or treatment, the decision to perform anterior vs. posterior vs. circumferential cervical OPLL surgery is...

Human exposure to aluminum.

Environmental geochemistry and health

Epstein SG.
PMID: 24202567
Environ Geochem Health. 1990 Mar;12(1):65-70. doi: 10.1007/BF01734050.

Aluminum is the third most abundant element in nature, accounting for nearly 8% of the Earth's crust. Because of its chemical activity, aluminum is not found naturally in its "free", or metallic, state. However, in its ionic or combined...

Challenges in Reducing Readmissions: Lessons from Leadership and Frontline Personnel at Eight Minority-Serving Hospitals.

Joint Commission journal on quality and patient safety

Joynt KE, Sarma N, Epstein AM, Jha AK, Weissman JS.

BACKGROUND: Hospitals that serve minority patients have higher readmission rates than other hospitals and, as a result, receive higher penalties under the federal government's Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program. A study was conducted to determine how minority-serving hospitals are responding...
