RESUMO
We designed a curriculum to help sustain pre-clinical knowledge for MD/PhD trainees in their graduate training phase while securing regular providers for our student-run free clinic. MD/PhD involvement increased from 1.91 to 2.45 students-per-clinic-day following implementation, and participants affirmed increased preparedness and comfort entering medical school clinical clerkships.
RESUMO
Chromosomal analysis of a neonate with brain and heart abnormalities revealed trisomy for 8p. The mother's karyotype showed 47 chromosomes with one chromosome 8 being represented as two separate chromosomes, an acrocentric 8p and a telocentric 8q. G-banding and silver staining revealed a satellite and nucleolus organizing region (NOR) on the 8p. Centromeric-specific probes to the centromeres of chromosomes 8, 15, 13/21, 22 and the acrocentric chromosomes revealed that only the 8q centromere was of chromosome-8 origin, while the 8p centromere was of chromosome-14 origin.
