Use of infrared imaging to evaluate sex differences in hand and finger rewarming patterns following cold water immersion
Haas F.; Altschul R.; Kruczek A.; Haas A.O.; Downing L.; Cohen J.M.; Lee M.H.M.
2007 ;17(4):147-153, Thermology International
We used Infra Red (IR) thermography to evaluate gender differences in local thermal regulation, assessing the response of 18 men and 16 women to a 30-second immersion of the dominant hand and digits in water maintained at 3-5degreesC. IR images-taken prior to immersion, immediately after withdrawal, at 15 second intervals for 5 minutes and 30-second intervals for the final 5 minutes -were analyzed to obtain surface temperature of the index finger and dorsum of the hand. Men had higher baseline temperatures than women in both hand and finger (P<0.01). Within sex, there were no hand-finger temperature differences. Immediately after withdrawal, temperatures showed that the finger had cooled more than the hand. The contralateral hand and finger showed a modest drop in temperature. After 10 minutes, men's and women's hands had rewarmed to 91.5 +/- 1% and 86.5 +/- 0.9% (m +/- SE) of baseline, respectively (p<0.001). Men's fingers rewarmed to 89.5 +/- 3.1%, while women's rewarmed to 77.0 +/- 3% (p<0.008). Although our data showed a broad spectrum of rewarming patterns, particularly in fingers, we were able to divide them into slow rewarmers (<90% return to baseline: 12 women, 5 men) and fast rewarmers (>90% of baseline: 13 men, 4 women). Fast rewarmers demonstrated a vasodilation absent in slow rewarmers. As the contralateral side showed a similar pattern, our data suggest that local rewarming is partly mediated by a reflex mechanism that is more prevalent and/or effective in men than women, possibly helping explain the higher incidence of cold-induced vasospastic disorder in women

Test-retest reliability in performance of persons with hemiparesis tracking by means of compatibly displayed myoelectric feedback derived from upper limb muscles
Gianutsos, John G; Cohen, Jeffrey M; Batavia, Mitchell
2004 Mar;98(1):19-30, Perceptual & motor skills
The aim of this study was to assess whether persons with hemiparesis will yield statistically reliable test-retest tracking performance on a procedure using limb-generated, compatibly displayed, myoelectric video feedback. A convenience sample of 50 inpatients and outpatients with upper extremity involvement of at least six months were recruited. 30 had hemiparesis and had both upper extremities tested. 20 had hemiplegia and had the nonparetic upper extremity tested. Tracking skill was measured as mean tracking error. Repeated measures analysis of variance yielded statistically significant effects of main factors: Response mode, Cursor Feedback, and Session. Extremity tested was not significant. Performance with involved limb, uninvolved limb, isometric mode, and isotonic mode all yielded positive rest-retest correlations. The reliable range of tracking error obtained from subjects with hemiparesis performing a task requiring modulation of compatibly displayed myoelectric output supports the therapeutic rationale for employing compatibly displayed video feedback in the rehabilitation of motor control

Gabapentin-induced hypersensitivity syndrome
Ragucci MV; Cohen JM
2001 Mar-Apr;24(2):103-105, Clinical neuropharmacology
Hypersensitivity syndrome is a rare but potentially fatal reaction to some pharmacologic agents, including some antiepileptic drugs. Typically, the syndrome presents with fever, rash, tender lymphadenopathy, hepatitis, and eosinophilia. We report a novel case of clinical hypersensitivity syndrome secondary to gabapentin. A patient developed altered mental status, fever, diffuse macular rash, and an enlarged spleen. This constellation of symptoms and signs began 9 days after gabapentin therapy was begun. Quick resolution was noted after gabapentin was discontinued. To our knowledge, there are no reports of hypersensitivity syndrome to gabapentin

Fluid collections in the intraperitoneal and extraperitoneal spaces: comparison of MR and CT
Cohen, J M; Weinreb, J C; Maravilla, K R
1985 Jun;155(3):705-708, Radiology
Fourteen patients with abnormal subdiaphragmatic fluid collections (eight intraperitoneal, two extraperitoneal, and four intra- and extraperitoneal) were examined with computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. MR and CT provided equivalent information concerning the presence and extent of fluid collections in 13 of the 14 cases. Image acquisitions with two different repetition times (TRs) and two echo times (TEs) were necessary, in most cases, to detect and discriminate between different types of pathologic fluids. Transudative ascites demonstrated long T1 and T2 relaxation times, whereas abscesses, phlegmon, pancreatic pseudocyst, exudative pancreatitis, and chronic hematoma demonstrated an intermediate or short T1 and a long T2

Chemical shift artifact in clinical magnetic resonance images at 0.35 T
Weinreb, J C; Brateman, L; Babcock, E E; Maravilla, K R; Cohen, J M; Horner, S D
1985 Jul;145(1):183-185, American journal of roentgenology
A thin, low-intensity line, which partially surrounds many structures on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is an artifact due to the phenomenon of chemical shift and should not be mistaken for a normal or abnormal morphologic structure. This artifact can be recognized by its characteristic appearance perpendicular to the direction of the frequency-encoding gradient at the interface of tissues with different chemical shift properties. Confinement within or extension beyond this thin, low-intensity line cannot be used as a criterion for staging neoplasms. Once recognized, the chemical shift artifact should not impede the use of MRI for clinical imaging at 0.35 T

Iliopsoas muscles: MR study of normal anatomy and disease
Weinreb, J C; Cohen, J M; Maravilla, K R
1985 Aug;156(2):435-440, Radiology
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging was performed on 15 healthy subjects to define the appearance of the iliopsoas muscle and on 15 patients with iliopsoas disease. Seven patients had tumorous involvement of the muscles, five had inflammatory disease, one had retroperitoneal hemorrhage, one had iliopsoas bursitis, and one had bilateral hypertrophy. MR imaging permitted delineation of the muscles and depiction of the disease condition. Transverse MR images alone almost always provided the necessary data to determine the origin and extent of disease. Sagittal images were occasionally useful in defining the extension of disease into the spine. T1-weighted images provided optimal contrast between the muscles and adjacent tissues, while T2-weighted images were more useful for depicting disease within the muscles themselves
