On-table cholangioscopy for hepatolithiasis in a patient with gallstone ileus post hepaticojejunostomy

Elizabeth Sebastian, Daniel Daly

Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomies (RYHJs) can be associated with biliary complications. We describe a very rare case of gallstone ileus causing a Roux limb obstruction in a patient who had recurrent hepatolithiasis and cholangitis secondary to residual stones despite repeated cholangioscopy. The obstruction was …

Cost-effectiveness of antenatal corticosteroids and tocolytic agents in the management of preterm birth: A systematic review

Elizabeth Sebastian, Chloe Bykersma, Alexander John Eggleston, Katherine E. Eddy et autres

Background: Preterm birth is a leading cause of neonatal mortality and morbidity, and imposes high health and societal costs. Antenatal corticosteroids (ACS) to accelerate fetal lung maturation are commonly used in conjunction with tocolytics for arresting preterm labour in women at risk …

Prenatal Arsenic Exposure and Shifts in the Newborn Proteome: Interindividual Differences in Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF)-Responsive Signaling

Rebecca C. Fry, Gonzalo G. Garcı́a-Vargas, Elizabeth Sebastian, Kathryn A. Bailey et autres

Exposure to inorganic arsenic (iAs) early in life is associated with adverse health effects in infants, children, and adults, and yet the biological mechanisms that underlie these effects are understudied. The objective of this research was to examine the proteomic shifts associated …

Urban Heat Islands and Remote Sensing: Characterizing Land Surface Temperature at the Neighborhood Scale

A. W. Liebowitz, Elizabeth Sebastian, Claudia Yanos, M. Bilik et autres

Land surface temperature data from Landsat 8 and from MODIS on the Aqua and Terra satellites were compared with ground-based surface temperature data from five urban sites within a New York City neighborhood. The ground data validated the spatial heterogeneity of surface …

Controllability of a Model On Deforestation Due to Human Population and its Effect on Farm Fields

Elizabeth Sebastian, Preethi Victor

In this paper, we propose a mathematical model on deforestation due to human population using a system of stochastic difference equations. Then we include the control variable to the system of difference equations. First, we analyze the controllability of the proposed model. …

An Approach to SIR Epidemic Model using Markovian Retrial Queues

Elizabeth Sebastian, Priyanka Victor

In this paper, we construct a SIR model and analyse it through queueing theory techniques. We study the model on an individual level. We formulate a SIR epidemic model using Markovian retrial queue. We intend to find the stability of the model. …
