Abstract:

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a complex disease characterized by multiple physiologic perturbations, progressively leading to cardiomyopathy, respiratory failure, and, eventually, death. Patients with DMD create unique challenges for the anesthesia team, including management of a difficult airway, avoidance of volatile anesthetics and succinylcholine, the need for respiratory support, and discussion of advance directives. A thorough and multidisciplinary collaborative approach must be utilized in the care of these patients for the entire perioperative period. This chapter uses a case example of a 17-year-old boy with DMD who presents for preoperative anesthesia consultation in anticipation of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy tube placement.

Abstract:

Gastrostomy tube placement is typically a routine surgical procedure with little concern for morbidity and mortality. However, in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), this is not the case. Patients with DMD present a unique clinical dilemma since they often do not require gastrostomy tube placement until their physical status has deteriorated to the point that they have respiratory insufficiency or failure and clinically significant cardiomyopathy. An understanding of the pathophysiology of this disorder and a proactive approach to perioperative management are important to ensure a positive patient outcome.

Abstract:

The number of life-limiting conditions in paediatrics is vast, and paediatric palliative medicine is generally based equally on both malignant and non-malignant conditions. There are several medical conditions that are common enough for it to be helpful to know about them in more detail. As all the conditions, by definition, have no cure, it is best to tackle each symptom with which the child presents individually, never forgetting that medical intervention is not the only modality open to us. Common conditions, such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, mucopolysaccharidosis type 1, mucopolysaccharidosis type 3, Batten’s disease, spinal muscular atrophy, and trisomy 18, are covered in this chapter. Details of clinical features and prognosis are described for each.

Abstract:

Anesthesia for pediatric orthopedic and spinal surgery presents multiple challenges for the anesthesiologist. Children often present with comorbidities and concomitant diseases that affect the respiratory and cardiovascular functions. Significant blood loss and prolonged operating times can pose significant risks. Airway management in a child with a syndrome can be both difficult and challenging. Orthopedic tumor surgery may be complicated by chemotherapy treatment, anesthetics can be affected by drug interactions, and postoperative pain management can be complex. In this chapter, we review common coexisting diseases in pediatric patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries. These diseases include syndromes such as Down syndrome, Marfan syndrome, and Klippel-Feil syndrome; muscular dystrophies such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy; and bony cancers such as osteosarcoma.

Abstract:

Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is the third most common muscular dystrophy, following Duchenne muscular dystrophy and myotonic dystrophy. The clinical secerity is extremely variable, with symptom onset anywhere from infancy to middle adulthood. The cardinal clinical features of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy include facial weakness and scapular winging. Other important examination findings including scalloping of the trapezius, “Popeye” forearms, horizontal axillary folds, and a positive Beevor’s sign. It can rarely present as a pattern of weakness mimicking limb-girdle muscular dystrophy with approximately 20% of patients eventually requiring a wheelchair for ambulation. Creatine kinase is normal or mildly elevated. Genetic testing for the D4Z4 repeat contraction on chromosome 4q35 detects 95% of cases but may not reflect severity of the disease.

Abstract:

This chapter highlights key technological advances in neuroimaging, the understanding of impulse transmission, and the molecular biology of the nervous system that have underpinned our modern understanding of the brain, mind, and nervous system. Neuroimaging spans the sub-cellular and systems levels of neuroscience, beginning with electron microscopy and then, 50 years later, magnetic resonance imaging and increasingly sophisticated mathematical modelling of brain function. These developments have been interleaved with the improved understanding of neurotransmission, starting with the seminal observations made from giant squid axon recordings, which were translated into clinically useable tools through the application of electric current, and later with magnetic stimulation. It is during the last 50 years that a molecular framework for these concepts emerged, with the cloning of genes that began in Duchenne muscular dystrophy, paving the way for the wider human genome project.

Abstract:

Diseases of muscle have become better understood by careful clinical observations, resulting in a clinically useful classification of the different groups of disorders e.g. inherited muscular dystrophies such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy, limb-girdle and metabolic myopathies, and myotonic disorders. A number of scientific approaches have determined the directions taken by this evolving classification. Understanding of the anatomy of the motor unit’s distribution in muscle transformed muscle pathology and muscle electrophysiology, and key to these pathological advances was the use of the histochemical technique for identifying myofibrillar ATPase in muscle fibres. This allowed studies of the distribution of fibre types in muscle in many different disorders. The inflammatory muscle diseases have been better understood since recent advances in immunology have characterized the underlying processes. The limb-girdle and childhood myopathies have proven to be heterogeneous, with many different, apparently causative, underlying genetic mutations.

Abstract:

This book discovers within early modern revenge tragedy the surprising shaping presence of a wide array of classical philosophies not commonly affiliated with the genre. By recovering the pervasive influence of Aristotelian faculty psychology on The Spanish Tragedy, Aristotelian ethics on Titus Andronicus, Lucretian atomism on Hamlet, Galenic pneumatics on Antonio’s Revenge and Epictetian Stoicism on The Duchess of Malfi, this book reveals how the very atmospheres and ontological assumptions of revenge tragedy exert their own kind of conditioning dramaturgical force. The book also revitalises our understanding of how the Renaissance stage, even at its most lurid, functions as a unique space for the era’s practical, vernacular engagement with received philosophy.

Abstract:

Long before it was a hidden storage space or a metaphor for queer and trans shame, the closet was one of the most charged settings in English architecture. This private room provided seclusion for reading, writing, praying, dressing, and collecting—and for talking in select company. In their closets, kings and duchesses shared secrets with favorites, midwives and apothecaries dispensed remedies, and newly wealthy men and women expanded their social networks. This book presents a literary and cultural history of these sites of extrafamilial intimacy, revealing how, as they proliferated both in buildings and in books, closets also became powerful symbols of the unstable virtual intimacy of the first mass-medium of print. Focused on the connections between status-conscious—and often awkward—interpersonal dynamics and an increasingly inclusive social and media landscape, the book examines dozens of historical and fictional encounters taking place in the various iterations of this room: courtly closets, bathing closets, prayer closets, privies, and the “moving closet” of the coach, among many others. In the process, it conjures the intimate lives of well-known figures such as Samuel Pepys and Laurence Sterne, as well as less familiar ones such as Miss Hobart, a maid of honor at the Restoration court, and Lady Anne Acheson, Swift's patroness. Turning finally to queer theory, the book discovers uncanny echoes of the eighteenth-century language of the closet in twenty-first-century coming-out narratives. The book offers a richly detailed and compelling account of an eighteenth-century setting and symbol of intimacy that continues to resonate today.
