Medicine Video: Research Outcomes: Pediatric Swallowing Disorders — Maureen Lefton-Greif, Ph.D., M.A.
Maureen Lefton-Greif, a Johns Hopkins speech-language pathologist, discusses her latest research on dysphagia and the video fluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS). The findings on this X-ray focus on the swallowing mechanism function that is not visible during clinical exams. They are also good for discovering if swallowing is sufficient to meet the nutritional goal. However, due to variables in the results, a new tool — the BaByVFSSImP — was created. The development of this novel tool may lead to improved clinical practice, future research and better the outcomes for bottle-fed infants with dysphagia.

Medicine Video: Remote Infant Vital Sign Monitoring in Congenital Heart Disease
Experts from Johns Hopkins Children’s Center participated in various sessions and presentations during the Eighth World Congress of Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery. In this video, Danielle Gottlieb Sen, director of pediatric cardiac research discusses the abstracts that were presented. The topics were about the development of wearable technology — a novel monitor that uses multiple vital signs to integrate data for pediatric patients in the outpatient setting. The second project uses software as a medical device that is an artificial intelligence algorithm that uses noninvasive continuously monitoring vital sign data in an inpatient setting to estimate cardiac output. This work is being performed in collaboration with the Johns Hopkins University Whiting School of Engineering. There is an effort in the United States to design devices that are specifically designated and labeled for children.

Medicine Video: Rates of Ovarian Cancer after Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer

Rates of Ovarian Cancer after Radical Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer

Introduction and Objective: AUA guidelines for radical cystectomy (RC) in women recommend removing adjacent reproductive organs including ovaries to reduce subsequent ovarian cancer (OC) risk. However, the most common histologic type of OC is now thought to originate from the fallopian tubes and many organizations now recommend bilateral salpingectomy (BS) for OC risk reduction at the time of abdominal surgery. In the setting of ongoing debate regarding oophorectomy with RC, rates of OC in a female population undergoing RC for bladder cancer need to be defined.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted via TriNetX after IRB approval. Baseline demographic and clinical data were compared among patients undergoing RC and RC with concurrent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (BSO). Logistic regression analysis was used to establish associations between surgery performed and downstream comorbid diseases.
Results: 1,133 patients underwent RC; 3 RC+BS, and 150 RC+BSO. At baseline, groups did not differ in age, race, ethnicity, or oncologic family or personal history; significant differences were noted in BMI, HTN, HLD, and overweight/obesity. Among those with RC, 1.8% developed ovarian/peritoneal cancer. No significant differences were noted in development of adverse effects between RC and RC+BSO groups (Table 1). No significant difference in all-cause mortality observed between RC and RC+BSO groups (HR = 0.997 [0.827 – 1.203], log-rank p=0.979).
Conclusions: Our study shows 1.8% of females undergoing RC for bladder cancer develop OC. This is consistent with lifetime OC risk in general population. Current performance of BS in lieu of BSO at RC is less than 1[RS1] [PA2] %. Whether BS can replace BSO for ovarian cancer risk reduction at the time of RC in patients with no known or suspected genetic risk for OC warrants further study.
