315 Owen, William E.; Roberts, William L.Effects of hemoglobin C and S traits on the results of 14 commercial glycated hemoglobin assaysGlycated hemoglobin is widely used in the management of diabetes mellitus. At least 300,000 Americans with diabetes mellitus have the hemoglobin (Hb) C or S trait. The accuracy of HbA1c methods can be adversely affected by the presence of these traits. We evaluated the effects of HbC and HbS traits ...Glycated hemoglobin assays; Hemoglobin C trait; Hemoglobin S trait2008
316 Couldwell, William T.; Orlandi, Richard R.; Jensen, Randy L.Endoscopic-assisted craniofacial resection of esthesioneuroblastoma: minimizing facial incisionsThe surgical management of esthesioneuroblastomas has traditionally been craniofacial resection, which combines a bifrontal craniotomy with a transfacial approach. The latter usually involves a disfiguring facial incision, mid-facial degloving, lateral rhinotomy, and/or extensive facial osteotomies...Esthesioneuroblastoma; Craniofacial resection; Endoscope; Craniofacial surgery; Minimally invasive2003

320 Schmidt, Meic H.Spinal extradural arachnoid cysts: clinical, radiological, and surgical featuresExtradural arachnoid cysts in the spine are rare and are seldom a cause of spinal cord compression. They are thought to arise from congenital defects in the dura mater, and they almost always communicate with the intrathecal subarachnoid space through a small defect in the dura. The mainstay of trea...Spinal extradural arachnoid cyst; Spinal meningeal cyst; Neurogenic claudication2007
