    Abstract On February 5, 2022, the field of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) lost a giant when Dr. David "Dave" Beukelman passed away. As the readership of this journal is aware, Dave was one of the principal founders of the AAC field and devoted his career to providing a voice to those without one. Before AAC became a field, people who could not talk were invisible or seldom noticed, unless they were in the way. For more than 40 years, he was a catalyst for change in AAC clinical practice, research, dissemination, teaching, and public policy development. This tribute aims to honor Dave's lifelong mission of serving others by sharing some of his most timeless and valued lessons. Each lesson begins with one of Dave's most enduring quotes that is then followed by a brief synopsis of the lesson Dave hoped to convey.

  3. Book: Neurorehabilitation Technology

    Reinkensmeyer, David J. / Dietz, Volker / Marchal-Crespo, Laura

    2022  

    Author's details David Reinkensmeyer is Professor in the Departments of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Anatomy and Neurobiology, Biomedical Engineering, and Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at the University of California Irvine. His research interests are in neuromuscular control, motor learning, robotics, and rehabilitation. A major goal of his research is to develop physically interacting, robotic and mechatronic devices to help the nervous system recover the ability to control movement of the arm, hand, and leg after neurologic injuries such as stroke and spinal cord injury. He is also investigating the computational mechanisms of human motor learning in order to provide a rational basis for designing movement training devices. He is Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Neuroengineering and Rehabilitation. His laboratory has helped develop a variety of robotic devices for manipulating and measuring movement in humans and rodents, including two devices that have been successfully commerci

    Abstract The history of pouch surgery is rooted in surgical innovation to improve quality of life in patients requiring surgical extirpation of the colon and rectum. From the early straight ileoanal anastomosis to the continent ileostomy to the modern ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA), techniques have evolved in response to pitfalls in design. Optimal IPAA design and construction have changed in response to functional outcomes. Nowadays, restorative proctocolectomy with IPAA is the optimal treatment for patients with ulcerative colitis or familial adenomatous polyposis. The J-pouch with stapled anastomosis has become the preferred procedure. Historical configurations and technical pearls, as described in this article, should be considered by surgeons who regularly care for patients requiring ileal pouch surgery.

    Abstract The trace element strontium (Sr) enhances new bone formation. However, delivering Sr, like other materials, in a sustained manner from a ceramic bone graft substitute (BGS) is difficult. We developed a novel ceramic BGS, polyphosphate dicalcium phosphate dehydrate (P-DCPD), which delivers embedded drugs in a sustained pattern. This study assessed the in vitro and in vivo performance of Sr-doped P-DCPD. In vitro P-DCPD and 10%Sr-P-DCPD were nontoxic and eluents from 10%Sr-P-DCPD significantly enhanced osteoblastic MC3T3 cell differentiation. A sustained, zero-order Sr release was observed from 10%Sr-P-DCPD for up to 70 days. When using this BGS in a rat calvaria defect model, both P-DCPD and 10% Sr-P-DCPD were found to be biocompatible and biodegradable. Histologic data from decalcified and undecalcified tissue showed that 10%Sr-P-DCPD had more extensive new bone formation compared with P-DCPD 12-weeks after surgery and the 10%Sr-P-DCPD had more organized new bone and much less fibrous tissue at the defect margins. The new bone was formed on the surface of the degraded ceramic debris within the bone defect area. P-DCPD represented a promising drug-eluting BGS for repair of critical bone defects.

    Abstract Background: Commercially available irrigation solutions are used to reduce bacterial contamination and prevent surgical site infections. However, the effect of these solutions on the healing capacity of tissue has not been well-established. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of 5 commercially available irrigation solutions on host tissue in a murine model.
    Methods: There were 5 treatment groups: bacitracin, Clorpactin, Irrisept, Prontosan, Bactisure, and normal saline control. The irrigation solutions were applied to the wound for 30 seconds or 1 minute, as per the manufacturer's instructions, and then washed with normal saline. Mice were sacrificed at 3 days and 10 days. The tissue was examined histologically for inflammation, edema, granulation tissue formation, and re-epithelialization. Granulation tissue formation and re-epithelialization were surrogates for effective wound healing.
    Results: All of the irrigation solutions had negative effects on host tissue in the acute phase. The inflammation and edema were improved in the later phase (10 days). Recovery and healing of the open wounds were observed for all groups at 10 days. The antiseptic irrigation solutions had similar cytotoxic effects on host tissue at 3 days and did not have delayed or compromised wound healing at 10 days when compared to normal saline control.
    Conclusions: Single short-duration use of these commercially available antiseptic irrigation solutions appears to be safe in an uninfected wound. Data from this study will provide surgeons with useful information regarding the safety of using antiseptic wound irrigation solutions intraoperatively for prevention of surgical site infections.

    Abstract Background: In the aftermath of COVID-19, the residency application process has largely remained in the virtual space, introducing a new challenge to prospective integrated plastic surgery residents. Many programs enhanced their online presence to address this challenge, but both programs and applicants are still limited to a virtual snapshot when determining "fit." An important influence of fit is the ability to racially, ethnically, and/or culturally identify with the program. The aims of this study are to: (1) better understand the online information that residency programs are making available to prospective applicants, (2) characterize the racial diversity of programs, and (3) investigate the effect of program leadership on racial diversity.
    Methods: A cross-sectional study of US integrated plastic surgery residency programs was performed in August 2022. Data on race were collected for residency program directors and resident cohorts and compared with self-reported data from the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). Relationships between these groups were analyzed.
    Results: Racial data were collected on 82 program directors and their corresponding residency cohorts, representing a total of 1174 individuals. These data closely matched the AAMC data on race/ethnicity in plastic surgery programs. By race, the smallest percentage of resident groups are Black/African American (3.4%) and Hispanic (4.2%). Though not statistically significant, more residents of a given race are in programs with a director of the same race.
    Conclusions: Online information about residency programs and their cohorts is robust. The racial diversity of a residency cohort is positively associated with racial diversity of program directors.
