TL;DR: Intravascular brachytherapy can be performed in the community hospital setting without compromising the efficiency of balloon angioplasty procedures and, pending long-term outcome data and FDA approval for specific delivery systems, endovascular brachestherapy in community hospital cardiac catheterization laboratories can be realized in an efficient and timely manner.

TL;DR: It is proposed that elective resection of a Meckel's diverticulum should be considered in the setting of pyogenic liver abscess with no other identifiable source.
Abstract: Meckel9s diverticula are the most common congenital malformation of the small intestine. The condition is rarely symptomatic and is usually an incidental finding during surgery. Bleeding in children and obstruction in adults are the most common symptomatic presentations. Our case involves a 50-year-old man with multiple pyogenic liver abscesses due to a Meckel9s diverticulum. The abscesses were percutaneously drained and the diverticulum was eventually resected. Pyogenic liver abscess is a very rare presentation of a Meckel9s diverticulum. The diverticulum in our case appeared to have a thickened wall on imaging but no signs of acute inflammation were present on the CT scan or noticed intraoperatively. It was presumed to be the possible source as all other possibilities were ruled out. Ultimately, the surgical pathology revealed acute inflammation and focal abscess. We propose that elective resection of a Meckel9s diverticulum should be considered in the setting of pyogenic liver abscess with no other identifiable source.

TL;DR: The importance of academic support services for student nurse athletes to assist in their academic success was reinforced, with athletes ranked time management and prioritization as critical skills to success in the nursing program.
Abstract: Student nurse athletes experience difficulties achieving academic success in nursing programs. The purpose of this study was to identify facilitators, barriers, and motivators of student nurse athletes that attribute to their academic success. Athletes ranked time management and prioritization as critical skills to success in the nursing program. This study reinforced the importance of academic support services for student nurse athletes to assist in their academic success.
