TL;DR: A case of placenta percreta causing spontaneous uterine rupture is presented, which may present in the antepartum period as abdominal pain, with or without signs of hemorrhagic shock.
Abstract: A case of placenta percreta causing spontaneous uterine rupture is presented. This is a rare condition, which may present in the antepartum period as abdominal pain, with or without signs of hemorrhagic shock. This entity can lead to significant morbidity and mortality if not aggressively managed. A discussion follows on the pathophysiology, incidence, risk factors, presentation and management of this condition.

TL;DR: This survey describes the ecology of superficial dermatophyte infections in South Bronx, New York from 1969 to 1981, with the predominant species being Trichophyton rubrum (Castellani) Sabouraud, 1911.
Abstract: This survey describes the ecology of superficial dermatophyte infections in South Bronx, New York from 1969 to 1981. The predominant species were Trichophyton rubrum (Castellani) Sabouraud, 1911 (57.5%), followed by Trichophyton tonsurans Malmsten, 1845 (18.5%), Trichophyton mentagrophytes (Robin) Blanchard, 1986 (11.5%), Microsporum canis Bodin var. canis Matsumoto, Padhye, and Ajello, 1902 (5%), Epidermophylon floccosum (Harz) Langeron and Milochevitch, 1930 (3.9%), and M. audouinii Gruby , 1843 (2.8%).

TL;DR: The results of this study show that a properly designed ANN is an effective tool that may be used to predict emergency department (ED) volume.
Abstract: Objective The objectives of this study are to design an artificial neural network (ANN) and to test it retrospectively to determine if it may be used to predict emergency department (ED) volume. Methods We conducted a retrospective review of patient registry data from February 4, 2007, to December 31, 2009, from an inner city, tertiary care hospital. We harvested data regarding weather, days of week, air quality, and special events to train the ANN. The ANN belongs to a class of neural networks called multilayer perceptrons. We designed an ANN composed of 37 input neurons, 22 hidden neurons, and 1 output neuron designed to predict the daily number of ED visits. The training method is a supervised backpropagation algorithm that uses mean squared error to minimize the average squared error between the ANN's output and the number of ED visits over all the example pairs. Results A linear regression between the predicted and actual ED visits demonstrated an R 2 of 0.957 with a slope of 0.997. Ninety-five percent of the time, the ANN was within 20 visits. Conclusion The results of this study show that a properly designed ANN is an effective tool that may be used to predict ED volume. The scatterplot demonstrates that the ANN is least predictive at the extreme ends of the spectrum suggesting that the ANN may be missing important variables. A properly calibrated ANN may have the potential to allow ED administrators to staff their units more appropriately in an effort to reduce patient wait times, decrease ED physician burnout rates, and increase the ability of caregivers to provide quality patient care. A prospective is needed to validate the utility of the ANN.

TL;DR: It is suggested that among AUS-2 nodules, surgery can be recommended when USG shows solid and hypoechoic features with GEC testing reserved for the remainder, as well as the performance of ultrasonography (USG) for predicting malignancy in this subset.
