SU-E-T-257: Risk of Radiogenic Second Cancer after Photon and Proton Craniospinal Irradiation.

Medical physics

Zhang R, Howell R, Giebeler A, Taddei P, Mahajan A, Newhauser W.
PMID: 28517324
Med Phys. 2012 Jun;39(6):3762-3962. doi: 10.1118/1.4735324.

PURPOSE: To compare proton and photon therapies in terms of the risks of second cancers for a pediatric medulloblastoma patient receiving craniospinal irradiation (CSI).METHODS: Two CSI treatment plans with 23.4 Gy or Gy (RBE) prescribed dose were computed for...

Poster - Thur Eve - 36: Out-of-Field dose in craniospinal irradiation.

Medical physics

Jalbout W, Howell R, Newhauser W, Geara F, Khater N, Taddei P.
PMID: 28516718
Med Phys. 2012 Jul;39(7):4631. doi: 10.1118/1.4740144.

The risk of radiotherapy induced secondary cancer depends on the integral dose delivered to the patient where the dose delivered within the radiation field is accounted for, as well as dose to out-of-field organs from scattered and leakage radiation....

Reducing blood loss after total hip arthroplasty: A prospective randomised controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of temporarily clamping drains.

Hip international : the journal of clinical and experimental research on hip pathology and therapy

Clifton R, Norrish AR, Howell FR.
PMID: 28224566
Hip Int. 2005 Apr - Jun;15(2):108-111. doi: 10.5301/HIP.2008.4156.

The purpose of the study is to primarily answer the question as to whether temporarily clamping the drain for one hour after total hip replacement reduces blood loss. Many surgeons use this technique, as it is perceived that it...

We report here the first draft genome sequence of the non-O1/non-O139

Sport-Related Concussions: Symptom Recurrence After Return to Exercise.

Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine

O'Brien MJ, Howell DR, Pepin MJ, Meehan WP.
PMID: 29085846
Orthop J Sports Med. 2017 Oct 17;5(10):2325967117732516. doi: 10.1177/2325967117732516. eCollection 2017 Oct.

BACKGROUND: Current guidelines dictate a gradual exercise progression after a concussion; however, it is unclear what proportion of athletes experience a recurrence of symptoms once they are symptom free at rest. Estimating the proportion of athletes and predictors of...

Analysis of clonally related environmental Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor isolated before 1992 from Varanasi, India reveals origin of SXT-ICEs belonging to O139 and O1 serogroups.

Environmental microbiology reports

Mohapatra SS, Mantri CK, Mohapatra H, Colwell RR, Singh DV.
PMID: 23765998
Environ Microbiol Rep. 2010 Feb;2(1):50-7. doi: 10.1111/j.1758-2229.2009.00051.x. Epub 2009 Jul 21.

In this study, we report the presence of SXT in environmental Vibrio cholerae O1 El Tor strains isolated before 1992 from Varanasi, India. All isolates, except one, were resistant to Tm, and/or Sul, Sm, Fr, Na and Am. None...

Detection of cholera (ctx) and zonula occludens (zot) toxin genes in Vibrio cholerae O1, O139 and non-O1 strains.

World journal of microbiology & biotechnology

Rivera IG, Chowdhury MA, Sanchez PS, Sato MI, Huq A, Colwell RR, Martins MT.
PMID: 24414916
World J Microbiol Biotechnol. 1995 Sep;11(5):572-7. doi: 10.1007/BF00286376.

Vibrio cholerae O1 and V. cholerae non-O1 strains isolated from environmental samples collected in São Paulo, Brazil, during cholera epidemics and pre-epidemic periods were examined for the presence of toxin genes. V. cholerae O1 strains isolated from clinical samples...

Viable but non-culturable Vibrio cholerae O1 revert to a cultivable state in the human intestine.

World journal of microbiology & biotechnology

Colwell RR, Brayton P, Herrington D, Tall B, Huq A, Levine MM.
PMID: 24415083
World J Microbiol Biotechnol. 1996 Jan;12(1):28-31. doi: 10.1007/BF00327795.

Vibrio cholerae O1 can enter a state in which they remain viable but are non-culturable. Presumably, such bacteria can be pathogenic if they retain the capacity to proliferate in the human intestine following ingestion. Two groups of volunteeers were...

WE-G-213CD-01: 4D Optimization for Scanned Ion Beam Tracking Therapy for Moving Tumors.

Medical physics

Eley J, Graeff C, Lüchtenborg R, Durante M, Howell R, Newhauser W, Bert C.
PMID: 28519649
Med Phys. 2012 Jun;39(6):3970. doi: 10.1118/1.4736202.

PURPOSE: To apply scanned ion radiotherapy to patients with moving tumors, motion mitigation approaches are needed. The purpose of the current study was to determine whether 4D optimized ion beam tracking therapy could reduce dose to critical structures near...

Growth of an estuarinePseudomonas sp. on polychlorinated biphenyl.

Microbial ecology

Sayler GS, Shon M, Colwell RR.
PMID: 24233577
Microb Ecol. 1977 Sep;3(3):241-55. doi: 10.1007/BF02010621.

In the course of a study of the microbial degradation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB), 16 cultures, representing 5 genera of bacteria, were isolated. APseudomonas sp. was found to degrade mixtures of PCB (Aroclor 1254) and pure isomers, i.e., hexachlorobiphenyl...
