Patient Attitudes and Education about the COVID-19 Vaccine
We gave patients a survey about if they were interested in receiving the COVID-19 vaccine and if not why across three different sites in Vermont and Connecticut. We also made and handed out a pamphlet about commonly asked questions about the vaccine and what the state\u27s distribution plan was. A majority of patients were interested in the getting the vaccine, and those who were unsure were worried about the long term side effects.https://scholarworks.uvm.edu/fmclerk/1711/thumbnail.jp
COVID-19 Vaccine Information and Patient Opinions
As the COVID-19 vaccine becomes available in Vermont, many patients have questions about the safety and efficacy, who it will be available for, when they can expect to get the vaccine, if their doctor would recommend it for them. These important questions are taking valuable time during already short patient visits, and as information is constantly evolving it is difficult to give a concise answer to many questions. This project outlined the basics of the vaccine and answered many FAQs.https://scholarworks.uvm.edu/fmclerk/1710/thumbnail.jp
Strain-elastografija kao koristan alat u procjeni neoplazmi mliječne žlijezde kuja
The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of strain elastography in the assessment of mammary neoplasms. Twenty-three dogs and a total number of 57 mammary neoplasms were included in this study. The elasticity score and strain ratio were measured using elastography recordings for comparison of histopathology results in mammary neoplasms. The mean elasticity scores were 1.66±0.15 for the benign neoplasms and 3.33±0.16 for the malignant tumors (P0.05). There was no significant difference found in distinguishing malignant mixed tumors and malignant epithelial tumors (P>0.05). The results of this study showed that, strain elastography is a highly valuable tool in differential diagnosis of mammary neoplasms in bitches.Cilj je rada bio prosuditi dijagnostičku učinkovitost strain-elastografije u procjeni neoplazmi mliječne žlijezde. Istraživanjem su obuhvaćena 23 psa i ukupno 57 neoplazmi mliječne žlijezde. Na elastografskim zapisima izmjereni su faktor čvrstoće (engl. elasticity score) i omjer čvrstoće (engl. strain ratio) radi usporedbe histopatoloških nalaza kod neoplazmi mliječne žlijezde. Prosječna vrijednost faktora čvrstoće bila je 1,66±0,15 za dobroćudne neoplazme i 3,33±0,16 za zloćudne tumore (P0,05) razlike među tim dvjema metodama u analizi zloćudnih epitelnih tumora u različitim stadijima, a statistički znakovite (P>0,05) razlike nije bilo ni između zloćudnih mješovitih tumora i zloćudnih epitelnih tumora. Rezultati ovog istraživanja pokazali su da je strain-elastografija izvrstan alat u diferencijalnoj dijagnostici neoplazmi mliječne žlijezde kuja
