    Abstract Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is a disease process that involves the destruction of red blood cells mediated by the humoral immune system. It can be characterized as a cold agglutinin syndrome, paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria, and warm, mixed type, and drug-induced AIHA. Although a well-established relationship exists between the presence of AIHA and lymphoproliferative malignancy, AIHA rarely presents in association with solid malignancies. An analysis of the limited number of published cases of AIHA in association with solid malignancies performed showed that AIHA may present before the diagnosis of a solid malignancy, concurrently with the presence of a solid malignancy, or even on resolution of a solid malignancy. Few cases of solid cancers associated with AIHA have been reported. AIHA rarely presents as a paraneoplastic syndrome indicating existence of a solid cancer. We report a case of inflammatory breast cancer with AIHA.

    Abstract Aims: Strict left bundle branch block (LBBB) criteria were recently proposed to identify LBBB patients to benefit most from cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). The aim of our study was to automate identification of strict LBBB in order to facilitate its broader application.
    Methods: We developed a series of algorithms to automatically detect and measure parameters required for strict LBBB criteria and proposed a definition of QRS notch detection. The algorithms were developed using training (n = 20) and validation (n = 592) sets consisting of signal-averaged 12-lead ECGs (1,000 Hz sampling) recorded from 612 LBBB patients from Multicenter Automatic Defibrillator Implantation Trial-CRT. Four trained clinicians independently performed adjudication on 148 different ECGs for comparing automatic and manually adjudicated results, in addition to 13 ECGs for evaluation of intraobserver variability and 32 ECGs for interobserver variability. We assessed the performance of the automated algorithms using manually adjudicated ECGs as references.
    Results: Overall sensitivity and specificity for detecting strict LBBB were 95% and 86%, respectively. The mean absolute deviation (MAD) of QRS duration and notch/slur locations for the automated method versus the manual method was below 1 ms, and MAD values were lower than 2 ms for interobserver and intraobserver variability. Sensitivity and specificity for detecting notch and slur locations were 87% and 96% for notches and 78% and 90% for slurs using the automatic method. In addition 95% and 93% agreements for notches and 90% and 88% agreements for slurs were reached for intra- and interobserver.
    Conclusion: The proposed algorithms automatically measure QRS features for the diagnosis of strict LBBB. Our study shows good performance in reference to manual results.

    Abstract Introduction: Understanding living organ donors' experience with donation and challenges faced during the process is necessary to guide the development of effective strategies to maximize donor benefit and increase the number of living donors.
    Methods: An anonymous self-administered survey, specifically designed for this population based on key informant interviews, was mailed to 426 individuals who donated a kidney or liver at our institution. Quantitative and qualitative methods including open and axial coding were used to analyze donor responses.
    Findings: Of the 141 survey respondents, 94% would encourage others to become donors; however, nearly half (44%) thought the donation process could be improved and offered numerous suggestions. Five major themes arose: (1) desire for greater convenience in testing and scheduling; (2) involvement of previous donors throughout the process; (3) education and promotion of donation through social media; (4) unanticipated difficulties, specifically pain; and (5) financial concerns.
    Discussion: Donor feedback has been translated into performance improvements at our hospital, many of which are applicable to other institutions. Population-specific survey development helps to identify vital patient concerns and provides valuable feedback to enhance the delivery of care.
