Brain Volume and Cardiac Function in Heart Failure
Patients with heart failure (HF) exhibit greater structural brain alterations and higher dementia risks than the general population. Neural atrophy in nearly every region of medical limbic circuit has been observed in HF patients. Reduction of cerebral blood flow has been suggested as the pathophysiological pathway linking HF and structural …

U.S. epidemiological data indicates that Black women are a high-risk HIV disparity group, yet initiation of novel prevention strategies like pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) among this group is stagnant. Socio-structural challenges like intimate partner violence and gendered racism can constrain PrEP access among Black women, but few implementation studies have mitigated …
Renal Retention in High Grade Upper Tract Urothelial Cancer
This trial will evaluate the use of combination pembrolizumab and enfortumab vedotin for patients with high grade non-metastatic (cN0/NxMx, no measurable regional lymph nodes, no metastases) upper tract urothelial cancer (UTUC), preferring to forego standard of care radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) surgery. Currently these patients would not be suitable candidates for …
Is Physical Therapy Clearance Before Arthroplasty Home Discharge Necessary?
Conventionally, physical therapy (PT) clearance is sought before total joint arthroplasty (TJA) discharge. However, PT staffing limitations may preclude same-day discharge in patients having surgery late in the day. Failed same-day discharge in eligible TJA patients results in unnecessary hospital bed occupancy, which increases costs, limits operating room throughput for …
