MAGEE // PAGE 4 STUDY SUGGESTS LINK BETWEEN POOR SLEEP AND PREGNANCY COMPLICATIONS

It’s no secret that sufficient shut-eye is important to good health. A new study by Magee-Womens Research Institute member Michele Okun, PhD, suggests that pregnant women who don’t sleep well are at increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes such as preterm birth. Women with poor sleep and depression are at even greater risk.

“Our results highlight the importance of identifying sleep problems in early pregnancy, especially in women experiencing depression, since sleep is a modifiable behavior,” says Dr. Okun, assistant professor of psychiatry at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.

The study evaluated the relationship between sleep and inflammatory cytokine concentrations in 168 depressed and non-depressed pregnant women. Cytokines are chemical messengers that regulate immune responses. They’re important for numerous pregnancy-related processes, but an overproduction of cytokines can inhibit the body’s ability to ward off disease. “It is plausible,” the study concluded, “that a woman who experiences both sleep disruption and depression may substantially increase her risk for adverse outcomes as a function of an exaggerated inflammatory response.”

The study was published in the September issue of the journal Psychosomatic Medicine. — A.D.

Magee Leads Dr. Jules Sumkin, DO the Way in MAGEE-WOMENS HOSPITAL OF UPMC MADE medical history this summer, becoming the first Breast Biopsy U.S. center to offer a new biopsy procedure to women with abnormal mammograms. BY KATY RANK LEV The procedure makes use of cutting-edge imaging technology called tomosynthesis, which produces three-dimensional x-rays of the breast. Three-dimensional imaging makes it easier for radiologists to identify certain abnormalities and has been shown to increase cancer detection by approximately 30 percent over traditional mammography, says Jules Sumkin, DO, chief of radiology at Magee. “The lesions we’re finding are significant, invasive cancers which we some- times cannot see any other way,” he says. In June, radiologists at Magee performed the country’s first tomosynthesis-guided breast biopsy. A biopsy is a procedure to remove a small piece of tissue for testing.

Magee has played a pivotal role in the development of breast tomosynthesis, often referred to as 3-D mammography. Since 2005, Dr. Sumkin and colleagues have been working with Hologic Inc., a Massachusetts-based developer of healthcare products, to test and refine the promising technology. Breast tomosynthesis was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2011, thanks in no small part to the research conducted at Magee. “The researchers and clinicians at Magee have been instrumental in advancing this technology, which is fast becoming the gold standard in breast cancer screening,” says Loren Niklason, vice president of imaging clinical research at Hologic. Breast tomosynthesis technology is now available in every state except Maine and more than 50 countries, according to Hologic.

A biopsy using tomosynthesis can take less time and expose the patient to less radiation than a

She asked Delorme- Axford to take the medium in which Dr. Sadovsky’s primary placental cells Dr. Yoel Sadovsky were growing (it’s called a “conditioned medium” as opposed to the fresh-out- of-the-bottle stuff), drop in some cells that are very prone to viral infection, and see what happens when these cells are exposed to viruses. “What we out the unknown.

That’s Dr. Coyne says. “They infect many human cell because sonication destroyed the microRNA-laden exosomes that target the types.

Infant’s Death Lights Fire Under Family

But his life had a profound impact on those who loved neonatal intensive care him, inspiring an initiative that will impact many others. unit. The loss of a child is life-changing. For some, the grief overwhelms, devastating families. For others, it is a catalyst, bringing new purpose out of great sorrow. In the months following Aiden’s death, his mother, Madeline, decided to return to school. She is now studying to become a neonatal intensive care nurse.

Madeline and her husband, Jason, wanted to do even more. To help other parents with premature infants, and to show their appreciation for the excellent care Aiden received at Magee-Womens Hospital of UPMC, they founded the Strack Foundation. Its inaugural event, the Aiden J. Strack Golf Classic, was held in May, raising $5,000 for Magee’s Patient Care Fund. The fund is used for expenses not covered by insurance, including travel and lodging for families of babies in the neonatal intensive care unit.

“Although we only had him here for a short time, we knew Aiden was sent to us for a reason,” Madeline says. “Our job as his parents is to recognize his purpose and do all we can to honor his memory. Supporting Magee’s program is the perfect way to do just that.” — Janie Robertson
