TL;DR: Laroscopy is a useful modality in the evaluation of hemodynamically stable patients with abdominal missile wounds and was helpful in determining the need for laparotomy vs thoracotomy in lower chest wounds.
Abstract: The role of laparoscopy in the selective management of gunshot wounds (GSW) of the abdomen was prospectively investigated in 38 patients. All the patients were hemodynamically stable and had equivocal evidence of intraabdominal penetration. Laparoscopy was performed in the operating room under anesthesia. The site of penetration was in the thoracoabdominal area in 13, epigastrium in 7, and lower quadrants in 18. Twenty-three (60.5%) had nonpenetration on laparoscopy and a laparotomy was avoided. The remaining patients had injuries to the liver (4 patients), spleen (two patients), diaphragm (3 patients), hemoperitoneum or retroperitoneal hematoma (6 patients), and hollow viscus injuries (5 patients). Laparoscopy was also helpful in determining the need for laparotomy vs thoracotomy in lower chest wounds. The negative laparoscopy group (no penetration) had a significantly lower hospital stay compared to hemodynamically stable patients who had negative laparotomy without laparoscopy for nonpenetrating GSW. There were no complications related to laparoscopy. Laparoscopy is a useful modality in the evaluation of hemodynamically stable patients with abdominal missile wounds.

TL;DR: The interstitial deletion of bands q33–35 of long arm of chromosome 7: a review with a new case report shows clear trends in progenitor cell reprograming and appears to be a “window of opportunity” for use in further studies.
Abstract: Verma RS, Conte RA, Sayegh SE, Kanjilal D. The interstitial deletion of bands q33–35 of long arm of chromosome 7: a review with a new case report. Clin Genet 1992:41: 82–86.
Interstitial or terminal deletion resulting in partial monosomy of various segments of the long arm of chromosome 7 was first recorded over two decades ago. Since then, a number of reports have correlated the severity of clinical manifestations with the length of the deletion involved. However, difficulty remains in defining a so-called “distinct syndrome”. We present a new case with the shortest interstitial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 7 bands q33–35, i.e. 46,XX,del(7)(pter q33::q35 qter). A 4-year-old black female was referred for cytogenetic evaluation due to neurodevelopmental delay. Pertinent physical examination at birth was cleft lip and cleft palate which required corrective surgery. At 2 years of age, a myringotomy tube was inserted for repeated ear infection and a hearing aid was required for conductive deafness. Neurological examination revealed poor eye contact, and severe mental and motor retardation. We reviewed 21 cases of a partial interstitial deletion of varied segments of the long arm of chromosome 7, but we were unable to establish a definite relationship with the deletion of various 7q segments with any specific clinical manifestations.

TL;DR: A study of colonoscopies demonstrates lower odds of Colonoscopy after adjusting for visit volume and greater predilection for colorectal cancer among urban minority men, which supports colonoscopy as the preferred method for cancer screening in the urban minority population in New York City.
Abstract: BACKGROUND
Data on gender- and age-specific predisposition to colorectal tumors and colorectal tumor location and stage among the urban minority population in Northeastern United States is limited.
