Abstract Abstract 4309 We investigated an apparent increase in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) referral from north Georgia to Emory University Hospital, a tertiary care center located in Atlanta, Georgia. Cases reported between 1999 and 2008 to the Georgia Comprehensive Cancer Registry (GCCR) and the national Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) cancer registry were analyzed. Age-adjusted incidence rates were calculated for all counties and public health regions within the state of Georgia and compared to national rates calculated using SEER 17 data for those ages 20 and above.

Abstract:

Abstract Introduction Geriatric assessment (GA) typically refers to a multidimensional evaluation designed to evaluate an older person's functional ability, physical health, cognition, psychological health, nutritional status, and social support. The purpose of GA is to develop time-efficient and straightforward tools to evaluate multiple patient characteristics, which may be predictive of treatment outcomes of elderly acute myeloid leukemia (eAML) patients treated with intensive chemotherapy. Given that there have been few prospective studies with conflicting results, we performed a single-ce

Abstract:

Introduction Approximately 15-20% of treatment-naïve patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) have CD20-low tumors, while CD19 is homogeneously expressed in &gt;90% of cases of DLBCL. CD20-low DLBCL is associated with poor response to rituximab-based regimens (Johnson NA, et al. 2009). CD19 functions as a positive regulator of B-cell receptor signaling and is important for B-cell activation and proliferation and is therefore an attractive therapeutic target in addition to CD20. Tafasitamab (MOR208) is a humanized, Fc-enhanced, anti-CD19 monoclonal antibody with improved antibody

Abstract A diagnosis of SCD is considered to be at risk for COVD19. To further define the association between SCD and infection with COVID-19, we estimated risk, by comparing presence or absence of COVID19 infections in individuals with and without SCD admitted concurrently to a large urban health care facility (Grady Memorial Hospital, Atlanta, GA; 960 beds, 5th largest public hospital in the US). Primary outcome was a positive or negative COVID-19 diagnosis as defined bySARS-CoV-2 PCR testing. A patient was considered to be COVID-19 positive if tested positive withSARS-CoV-2 PCR for the firs

Background: Lack of insurance coverage and provider training are significant barriers that contribute to health disparities among members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community.

Abstract Background Severe Early Childhood Caries (S-ECC) is an aggressive form of tooth decay that often requires pediatric dental rehabilitative surgery. The Early Childhood Oral Health Impact Scale (ECOHIS) measures oral health-related quality of life (OHRQL). The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is an association between ECOHIS scores and surgery wait times for children undergoing dental treatment for S-ECC under general anesthesia (GA). Methods The hypothesis was that there is no present association between wait times and ECOHIS score. Children under 72 months of age w

Abstract:

High sodium (HS) intake is related to endothelial dysfunction (ED) and the development of cardiovascular disease. ED is a key factor in high blood pressure (BP), and a HS intake can promote ED mainly through the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Data shows that the effectiveness of therapeutic strategies to reduce ROS does not fully restore endothelial function suggesting that the contribution of an alternative cellular pathway for HS-induced ED, such as inflammation, may be involved. In contrast, a high potassium (HK) intake has protective effects on cardiovascular health by decrea
