Abstract:

Otitis media is characterized by inflammation of the middle ear. The pathologic changes seen in this condition tend to occur on a continuum, progressing from acute and subacute stages to the chronic phase, in which irreversible tissue damage is observed. The earliest morphological changes involve the lamina propria of the middle ear mucosa and include increased capillary permeability, edema, and leukocytic infiltration. During the late acute to subacute stages, the mucosa also tends to show a marked increase in numbers of ciliated and secretory epithelial cells. As the inflammatory process enters the chronic phase, there is a continuing shift in the population of infiltrating leukocytes toward increasing numbers of mononuclear cells that secrete substances that facilitate tissue destruction and fibrosis. There is also development and proliferation of granulation tissue, which is intimately involved in the process of bone erosion. As granulation tissue matures, it becomes denser and less vascular—a process that leads to permanent fibrosis and formation of adhesions that may significantly compromise middle ear function. Other pathologic entities occasionally associated with chronic otitis media include cholesteatoma, cholesterol cysts and granuloma, and tympanosclerosis, all of which may contribute to irreversible alterations of middle ear structure.

Abstract:

In the course of post-mortem examination of conventional random-bred and inbred (immunosuppressed) strain 2/N guinea pigs kept in separate quarters, otitis media was diagnosed in 62 of 462 animals (13·4%) and 18 of 66 animals (27·3%) respectively. Clinical signs of otitis media were seen in only two randombred animals but in nearly 50% of affected inbred animals. In random-bred guineapigs, purulent, often bilateral, otitis media was associated mainly with the isolation of Streptococcus zooepidemicus, Bordetella bronchiseptica, Pasteurella and Actinobacillus spp. and micrococci. In strain 2/N guineapigs serous or purulent often bilateral otitis media was associated mainly with the isolation of B. bronchiseptica and Pseudomonas aeruginosa serotypes 10 and 11. The simultaneous occurrence of similar pathogenic bacteria in both ears of bilaterally affected animals and in pneumonic lung tissue (in random-bred animals) suggested ascending and descending infection originating from the upper respiratory tract. It is concluded that otitis media, associated with the isolation of a variety of respiratory bacterial species, must be considered a major disease problem in guineapigs.

Abstract:

BackgroundMass media exposure has been associated with an increased risk of eating pathology. It is unknown whether indirect media exposure – such as the proliferation of media exposure in an individual's social network – is also associated with eating disorders.AimsTo test hypotheses that both individual (direct) and social network (indirect) mass media exposures were associated with eating pathology in Fiji.MethodWe assessed several kinds of mass media exposure, media influence, cultural orientation and eating pathology by self-report among adolescent female ethnic Fijians (n = 523). We fitted a series of multiple regression models of eating pathology, assessed by the Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire (EDE–Q), in which mass media exposures, sociodemographic characteristics and body mass index were entered as predictors.ResultsBoth direct and indirect mass media exposures were associated with eating pathology in unadjusted analyses, whereas in adjusted analyses only social network media exposure was associated with eating pathology. This result was similar when eating pathology was operationalised as either a continuous or a categorical dependent variable (e.g. odds ratio OR = 1.60, 95% CI 1.15–2.23 relating social network media exposure to upper-quartile EDE–Q scores). Subsequent analyses pointed to individual media influence as an important explanatory variable in this association.ConclusionsSocial network media exposure was associated with eating pathology in this Fijian study sample, independent of direct media exposure and other cultural exposures. Findings warrant further investigation of its health impact in other populations.

Abstract:

Recent privacy breaches by a major social media company have again raised questions from some pathologists regarding the legality and ethics of sharing pathology images on social media. The authors examined ethical principles as well as historic and legal precedents relevant to pathology medical photography. Taking and sharing photographs of pathology specimens is embedded into the culture of the specialty of pathology and has been for more than a century. In general, the pathologist who takes the photograph of a gross or microscopic specimen owns the copyright to that photograph. Patient consent is not legally or ethically required to take or use deidentified photographs of pathology specimens. Current US privacy laws (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA] of 1996) permit public sharing of deidentified pathology photographs without specific patient consent, even on social media. There is no case law of action taken against pathologists for sharing deidentified pathology images on social media or elsewhere. If there is any legal risk for pathologists or risk of patient harm in sharing pathology photographs, it is very small. The benefits of professional social media use for pathologists, patients, and society are numerous and well documented in the literature.

Abstract:

The use of social media at academic conferences is expanding, and platforms such as Twitter are used to share meeting content with the world. Pathology conferences are no exception, and recently, pathology organizations have promoted social media as a way to enhance meeting exposure. A social media committee was formed ad hoc to implement strategies to enhance social media involvement and coverage at the 2018 and 2019 annual meetings of the Association of Pathology Chairs. This organized approach resulted in an 11-fold increase in social media engagement compared to the year prior to committee formation (2017). In this article, the social media committee reviews the strategies that were employed and the resultant outcome data. In addition, we categorize tweets by topic to identify the topics of greatest interest to meeting participants, and we discuss the differences between Twitter and other social media platforms. Lastly, we review the existing literature on this topic from 23 medical specialties and health care fields.

Abstract:

AbstractOssification of the inner ear is the result of multifactorial pathogeneses, such as infection or malignant infiltration, and otosclerosis. Ossification of the innerear spaces is a well documented sequela of suppurative labyrinthitis. In this study of human temporal bones, sections from 14 patients (28 temporal bones)were studied. In additionto the osseous tissue within the inner ear, findings included neoplasms, otosclerosis, otitis media, trauma, and Fabry's disease. We have attempted to correlate these conditions and their influence on the formation of osseous tissue within the spaces of the inner ear. Tympanogenic infection and vascular compromise were found to play an important role in ossification. The scala tympani ofthe basal turn of the cochlea was frequently the site involved.

AbstractObjectives:To gather and analyse information concerning the aetiology and pathology of otitis media with effusion in adults.Method:A review of the English language literature from 1970 to the present was conducted.Results:The available evidence suggests that otitis media with effusion in adult life is best viewed as a syndrome with a number of causes, including: infiltration of the eustachian tube by nasopharyngeal carcinoma and other local malignancies; changes in the middle ear and eustachian tube induced by radiotherapy; and systemic disease.Conclusion:There is now a body of evidence specifically related to the aetiology and pathology of otitis media with effusion in adult life. However, further research is required to fill in the gaps in our knowledge and understanding of this condition.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE: To review various aspects of chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM). DATA SOURCES: A MEDLINE search and extensive review of articles provided the information for this review. DATA EXTRACTION: Studies describing the epidemiology, microbiology, risk factors, pathology, diagnosis, treatment, complications, and recurrence of CSOM were included. DATA SYNTHESIS: Pseudomonas aeruginosa and anaerobes are the most predominant bacteria found in CSOM. Treatment with otic, oral, or parenteral drugs (e.g., neomycin/polymyxin B/hydrocortisone otic, ciprofloxacin, ceftazidime, or aminoglycosides) should be guided by ear fluid culture results. Prompt treatment with effective and safe antibiotics may prevent complications of CSOM. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of CSOM has improved as a result of availability of effective otic and oral antibiotics. Treatment of the anaerobic infection with antibiotics should be studied further.

Abstract:

Examination of glass slides is of paramount importance in pathology training. Until the introduction of digitized whole slide images that could be accessed through computer networks, the sharing of pathology slides was a major logistic issue in pathology education and practice. With the help of whole slide images, our department has developed several online pathology education websites. Based on a modular architecture, this program provides online access to whole slide images, still images, case studies, quizzes and didactic text at different levels. Together with traditional lectures and hands-on experiences, it forms the back bone of our histology and pathology education system for residents and medical students. The use of digitized whole slide images has a.lso greatly improved the communication between clinicians and pathologist in our institute.

Abstract:

Background: Chronic otitis media (COM) squamous type is commonly associated with cholesteatoma. In COM squamous type with active disease, there is retraction of pars flaccida or pars tensa with retention of squamous epithelial debris and is associated with inflammation and production of pus. It is potentially dangerous because it can cause resorption of bone, leading to ossicular erosion and destruction of bony plates of middle ear. The objective of this study is to determine the effect of chronic otitis media squamous type on the ossicular chain as well as to observe the types of pathology in this disease. Methods and materials: Fifty cases of chronic otitis media squamous type who underwent surgical management were included. The status of ossicular chain was evaluated intraoperatively. The type of pathology involving middle ear was also studied. Cases admitted for revision surgery were excluded from the study. Results: Of the total fifty cases, ossicular changes were observed in forty eight cases and in two cases all ossicles were intact. Long process of incus is the most frequently involved ossicle. The most common pathology was found to be mixed type (52%). Conclusion: The conclusion of this study is that ossicular chain is commonly involved in chronic otitis media squamous type and mixed pathology consisting of cholesteatoma and granulation tissue is the most frequent pathology.

Abstract:

Telepathology, derived from the Greek words tele, or “far off,” and pathologia, literally, “study of the emotions,” is a branch of telemedicine in which information about tissue or body fluid samples obtained at one location is transmitted to a distant site for analysis. in its broadest sense, telepathology can be thought of as encompassing any form of remote information transfer about specimens harboring potential disease processes, including verbal communication via telephone. in a majority of cases, however, the term is used to describe interactions involving transmission of microscopic images, or telemicroscopy. Such transmission can occur through a wide variety of media; sharing of printed images is one venerable mechanism that persists in robust form to this day, facilitated and expedited by efficient express-mail systems. Increasingly, however, the terms telepathology and telemicroscopy have acquired the connotation of rapid electronic transmission of digitized images. Facsimile transmission of micrographs is a rudimentary version of this process, but most modern systems employ some form of digital camera attached to a microscope.

Abstract:

Otitis media is an in􀃸ammation of a part or whole of the mucoperiosteal lining of the middle ear cleft which is composed of Eustachian tube, h y p o t y m p a n u m , m e s o t y m p a n u m , epitympanum, aditus and mastoid air cells(1). It is one of the commonest ear disease of all age groups and it is caused by multiple interrelated factors including infections, eustachian tube dysfunction, nasal allergy and trauma. The disease has been classi􀃶ed on the basis of its underlying pathology as active or inactive mucosal, active or inactive squamosal and healed chronic otitis media (2). A number of factors are involved in the outcome of surgery for Chronic suppurative Otitis media and one of them is condition of the mastoid. According to Jackler and Schindler (3) Mastoid factors are extent of pneumatization and presence of in􀃸ammatory disease in mastoid. Holmquist and Bergstorm (4) in 1978 said that well aerated mastoid is a prerequisite for well ventilated middle ear and long lasting success. KEY WORDS: SAFE OTITIS MEDIA, MASTOIDECTOMY, MASTOID ANTRUM.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT:Spontaneous dissection of a major subarachnoid artery is an uncommon cause of stroke in young and apparently healthy individuals. Such dissection does not correlate well with systemic conditions such as emboli, thrombotic or hemorrhagic tendencies or hypertension, nor with disease of blood vessels such as atherosclerosis, fibromuscular dysplasia, cystic medial necrosis or Moya-Moya disease. Unusual exertion has been implicated as a factor in some cases. Gap defects were found in the internal elastic lamina near the site of dissection in three of four cases of spontaneous dissection reported here. It is suggested that such defects, because of their unusual size or number, may be responsible for initiating dissection in susceptible individuals. A detailed study of the major cerebral arteries in cases of dissection and control cases to document the size and frequency of such defects could shed light on the pathogenesis of spontaneous dissection. The subsequent course of events tends to differ in the internal carotid and vertebro-basilar systems. In most cases, the dissection in the internal carotid system is sub-intimal leading to thrombosis and cerebral infarction, while in the vertebrobasilar system dissection lies between the media and adventitia leading to subarachnoid hemorrhage. It is not known what structural differences of the two arterial systems may underlie this difference in the pattern of arterial dissection.

Abstract:

Background: Chronic otitis media (COM) implies a permanent abnormality in the tympanic membrane characterized by irreversible changes in the mucosa of middle ear and mastoid cavity. Diseases of the nose and para nasal sinuses have been implicated in the development of the disease. Hence the present study aims at identifying the risk factors involved and the importance of its management in treating the disease. The objective was to study the correlation between COM and Sino nasal and nasopharyngeal pathology.Methods: A total of 100 patients with chronic otitis media were included in the study. A Detailed history and clinical examination was done using a pre-prepared questionnaire. Diagnostic nasal endoscopy was done in all cases to assess the nasal cavity and nasopharynx along with bacteriological study of ear and corresponding side of nasopharynx. Results: Symptomatic, clinical and diagnostic profile proved the evidence of sinonasal pathology in 82% of patients with COM. The comparative study of the microbiological flora of both ear and corresponding side of nasopharynx showed 77 % of ear swabs and 91% of nasopharyngeal swabs to be sterile. The results were statistically significant with a p value of 0.003.Conclusions: This study emphasises on a thorough evaluation of nose and paranasal sinuses in all cases of COM for comprehensive management of the disease. Its detection and management is equally important as the ear surgery per se.

Abstract:

The ultrastructure of the mucosa of the eustachian tube was studied in four temporal bones showing tympanosclerosis, cholesteatoma, otitic meningitis and a grafted tympanic membrane (tympanoplasty). The mucosa of tube was abnormal in the four cases confirming the relationship between the state of the eustachian tube and the inflammatory process in the middle ear. The observed abnormalities included: ciliary loss, abnormal ciliary morphology and motility, oedema of the microvilli, hyperplasia of the goblet cells and the seromucinous acini, desquamation of the non-ciliated cells and appearance of mast cells in the lamina propria of the tube. Ciliary changes were the most frequent abnormalities and the morphological changes, in general, were fewest in the case of healed tympanoplasty. The pathophysiology of the morphological changes was discussed and correlated with the disease in the middle ear.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction/Objective The events of the past year brought into stark relief the importance and impact of social media and digital communications for pathology departments as managed by an intra-departmental team of communications professionals. The University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Pathology is home to nearly 100 faculty, more than 200 staff members and close to 40 trainees. The department’s internal communications team consists of a director of communications and content coordinator, both full time employees. Prior to the COVID pandemic, the team hosted departmental Twitter and Facebook accounts. During the course of the year, we added Instagram and LinkedIn accounts, as well as a YouTube channel. These vehicles provided multiple platforms for communicating our messages, relating to COVID and promoting regular news and updates broadly, to both internal and external audiences. Methods/Case Report We created LinkedIn and Instagram accounts in July 2020, to round out our social media platforms. We use Sprout Social to manage our various accounts. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) For the timeframe of March 2020–2021 our @UABPathology Twitter account had a total of 933 published posts, and 1,022,785 total impressions, for 3,889 followers. Total engagements with the posts were 48,420, with 2,301 post link clicks. For the same timeframe, our nascent @UABPathology Instagram account earned 56,662 impressions, and 3,329 total engagements, for a 5.9% engagement rate. Most experts agree that a good engagement rate is between 1 and 5%. Conclusion Our departmental social media accounts generated high impact engagements with an audience primarily in the demographic of our target for trainee and young faculty recruits, ages 25-34, in addition to broadly disseminating our department’s ongoing news and updates during the COVID pandemic. The impact of effectively communicating through social media channels is measurable, and will continue to grow the reputation of the department as a top-tier clinical, research and educational program in the field.

Abstract:

A molecular mechanism responsible for varicose vein occurrence was investigated. The role of potential cell cycle regulator p21 and programmed cell death in the pathology leading to the proximal long saphenous vein (LSV) incompetence was investigated. Proximal LSV specimens were obtained from 40 patients with primary varicose veins who had undergone crossectomy. The expression of the p21, p53, and fas encoding genes was investigated by the means of real-time RT-QPCR. Immunostaining for gene product presence, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), and apoptotic cells (TUNEL assay) was carried out. The results were compared to the control healthy vein specimens and correlated with pathologic examination findings (of the valve and vein structure). A significant increase in p21, p53, and fas mRNA expression were reported in the proximal incompetent veins. The expression of p21 correlated with expression of p53 (r = 0.658; p<0.05) and negative correlation between media apoptotic index and p21 mRNA expression was found (r = -0.493; p<0.05). Decrease in the muscular component within the media and disturbances of the local structure in the incompetent LSVs were reported. Fas overexpression did not correlate with p53 expression level and did not correlate with apoptotic cell number in the respective vein layers. PCNA-positive cells were present more frequently in the media of the control veins, especially in young subjects. Apoptosis downregulation, cell cycle inhibition and smooth muscle cell hypertrophy are important factors influencing vein wall disturbances related to sapheno-femoral junction incompetence.

Abstract:

Adenoid enlargement has traditionally been considered a factor in otitis media; adenoid size, however, does not appear to be correlated with otitis media occurrence. Presence of pathogenic bacteria in the adenoids of children with otitis media has been shown, and adenoidectomy appears to affect the middle ear primarily by removal of the source of infection in the nasopharynx. Three recent randomized, controlled studies showed the efficacy of adenoidectomy in the treatment of chronic secretory otitis media. In one study comparing no treatment, adenoidectomy, and adenotonsillectomy, a significant benefit was seen with adenoidectomy that was not enhanced by tonsillectomy. Another study that compared adenoidectomy, tympanostomy tubes, and a combination of the two showed a significant reduction in effusion time and less surgical retreatment over 2 years in the two adenoidectomy groups. The third study demonstrated the effect of adenoidectomy in children with recurrent chronic otitis media with effusion after failure of tympanostomy tube insertion. All three studies showed that the effect of adenoidectomy was independent of adenoid size. This review discusses current concepts of adenoid physiology and pathology, the major adenoidectomy studies, and indications for the procedure.

Abstract:

Summary The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of extracardiac pathology in neonatal patients with suspected congenital heart disease referred to undergo multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) angiography in Vilnius University Hospital Santariskiu Klinikos. The safety of MDCT angiography (intravenous contrast media volume injected, scanning time and exposure to ionising radiation) was also evaluated. Patients and Methods: During the period of 2006-2012, in Vilnius University Hospital Santariskiu Klinikos 186 pediatric patients were referred to undergo MDCT angiography of whom 71 were neonates with suspected complex congenital heart disease (CHD) and extracardiac pathology. Results: Sixty nine (97.2%) of referred neonates were found to have extracardiac pathology (36 had extracardiac vascular pathology only, 4 - extracardiac non-vascular pathology only and 29 - both extracardiac vascular and non-vascular pathology). In 47 patients diagnosis of extracardiac pathology was verified intraoperatively. Remainder (n = 24) of the group were not operated (12 patients died because of hemodynamic instability and inoperable complex CHD, 9 patients were scheduled for later surgery, in 3 patients surgery was not indicated). Mean contrast media volume used was 4.18±1.03 ml, mean scanning time was 1.07±0.77 s and mean effective radiation dose was 2.8± 0.69 mSv. No adverse reactions or complications were observed. Conclusions: MDCT angiography is accurate and safe method in diagnosis of complex congenital heart disease with extracardiac pathology.

Abstract:

Purpose Most police agencies in the USA make the claim that they use social media, and such use is drawing a great academic attention. Most studies on police use of social media focus on the content of police social media websites. Little research, however, has been conducted regarding what types of police agencies are in fact making use of social media. The purpose of this paper is to fill this gap in the knowledge. Design/methodology/approach The study reported here analyzes the 2013 Law Enforcement Management and Administrative Statistics (LEMAS) data set to identify the principal organizational characteristics of police agencies associated with the use of social media. Binary logistic regression is used to identify significant independent predictors of police use of social media, viewed here as a form of innovation. Findings The findings indicate that the workforce size (commissioned and civilian personnel) of a police agency, the level of participation in multi-jurisdictional task forces and the early use of an official agency website to communicate with the public are the predictors of police use of social media. Research limitations/implications Three theories pertaining to organizational behavior (i.e. contingency theory, institutional theory, and resource dependency theory), as well as Maguire’s (2003) study, are used to establish the theoretical framework for the research reported here. Originality/value Viewed as a pioneering study testing organizational theories related to police use of social media, the current study sets forth findings that help deepen the collective understanding of contingency theory, institutional theory and resource dependency theory as frameworks for explaining organizational behavior in policing.

Abstract:

Ultrasound (US), computed-tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the most frequently used imaging techniques in abdominal pathology. US plays a pivotal role in evaluating abdominal disease, sometimes being sufficient for a complete diagnosis and has virtually no contraindications. The usage of US contrast agents will add useful diagnostic information in both hepatic and non-hepatic pathology. CT has, over MRI, the advantage of being readily available. The usage of ionizing radiation is the main pitfall of CT. Allergies and contrast induced nephropathy in patients with an impaired renal function are the major risks of contrast media administration in CT. Its excellent tissue resolution makes MRI a very useful technique in abdominal pathology, the major contraindications being the presence of MRI “unsafe” implants and devices and the presence of metallic foreign bodies, particularly close to vital structures like the eyes or major vessels. Contrast administration in MRI is restricted in patients with renal insufficiency due to the risk of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis. Allergies to MRI contrast media are rare and less important compared to allergies due to CT contrast media

Abstract:

A stratified random cluster sample of 15,845 subjects was performed in two regions of Nepal to determine the prevalence and main causes of hearing impairment (the most common disability) and the prevalence of ear disease. Subjects reporting current ear pain, or ear discharge, or hearing impairment on direct questioning by a Nepali health worker (primary screening failed), had otoscopy and audiometry (using the Liverpool Field Audiometer) performed, and a questionnaire administered relating to past history. In every fifth house subjects who passed the primary screening (1,716 subjects) were examined to assess the false negative rate of screening. An estimated 16.6 per cent of the study population have hearing impairment (either ear worse than 30 dB hearing threshold level (HTL) 1.0–4.0 kHz, or 50 dB HTL 0.5 kHz), and 7.4 per cent ear drum pathology, equivalent to respectively 2.71 and 1.48 million people extrapolated to the whole of Nepal. Most hearing impairment in the school age group (55.2 per cent) is associated with otitis media or its sequelae. Probably at least 14 per cent of sensorineural deafness is preventable (7 per cent infectious disease, 3.9 per cent trauma, 0.8 per cent noise exposure, 1 per cent cretinism, and 1 per cent abnormal pregnancy or labour). Most individuals reporting current ear pathology (61 per cent) had never attended a health post, and of those receiving ear drop treatment, 84 per cent still had serious pathology. Of subjects who reported ear drop treatment at any time, 31 per cent still had serious pathology. The use of traditional remedies was prevalent.In conclusion this study shows high prevalences of hearing impairment and ear drum pathology. To reduce hearing impairment in Nepal, particularly in the school age group, a priority should be the effective treatment of otitis media.

AbstractAn extensive lateral sinus thrombosis secondary to silent otitis media, in a patient with a nephrotic syndrome, is presented. The thrombotic process progressed asymptomatically until the occlusion of the superior vena cava. Removal of the intractable pathology within the mastoid and administration of appropriate antibiotic therapy, prevented the further propagation of the life-threatening condition.
