Category: BPH/LUTS: Electrosurgery, Lasers & Other Technology
Introduction & Objective :
Laser-tissue interaction is based on the physical properties (i.e. wavelength) of the laser and variables such as laser power, pulse length and distances of the laser fiber tip to the tissue surface. The objective of this study was to estimate how the distance between tissue and the laser fiber tip alters laser-tissue interaction in different types of lasers.
Methods :
Tissue samples from fresh non-frozen porcine kidney were used to compare 4 lasers with an average power of 60-W using a 600 µm bare-ended fiber: a continuous wave Thulium fiber laser (cwTFL), a Super Pulse (SP) TFL, a Ho:YAG laser, and a Blue Diode Laser (BDL) (wavelength of 0.45 µm, comparable with Greenlight laser). We used a XY translation stage with a fixed fiber holder which allowed changing the gap between tissue and fiber with precision ± 0.1 mm by micrometer screw. The water filled gap between fiber and tissue was varied in a range from 0 mm to 6 mm. Exposure time was fixed at 1 sec for each laser. Afterwards, the tissue samples were sliced with a microtome for subsequent Lactat Dehydrogenase (LDH) staining to determine zones of thermal damage, vaporization, and coagulation.
Results : Characteristics of the lasers, laser settings, and the results of histology evaluation are shown in Table 1. In contact mode (0 mm gap), CWTFL produces the largest coagulation zone. This may be due to better absorption of CWTFL energy by intracellular water, which leads to deepest incision. On the other hand, coefficient of absorption in water for the Ho:YAG laser is lower than CWTFL, resulting in larger coagulation and smaller ablation zones. At 2 mm, only the Ho:YAG laser vaporized tissue. Which is linked to thermo-mechanical impact caused by a stream of bubbles of vaporizing water. Coagulation effect of BDL remained up to maximum gap of 6 mm.
Conclusions :
CWTFL must be at a distance of 2mm from the tissue to produce superficial coagulation; the Ho:YAG laser produced thermomechanical damage to tissue at the largest distance; the BDL has the strongest coagulation effect among the three lasers, with no significant changes in its depth of coagulation at different distances.

When US Vice President Mike Pence visited Texas in July to address criticisms of migrant detention facilities, he insisted that authorities were 'providing care that every American would be proud of' (Vigdor 2019). But press-pool images of men packed behind fences and the Vice President's own face showed a different picture and added to the pressure on the Trump administration (Klein and Brown 2019). The political influence of photography is the subject of longstanding debate. An image of atrocity can serve as a 'call for peace' or 'a cry for revenge', argued the writer and activist Susan Sontag (2004: 12). Alex Danchev (2009: 39), a scholar of politics and art, was more optimistic, seeing photographs as 'instruments of the imagination, tools for morals'. In spite of their differences, Sontag and Danchev saw photographers as witnesses of politics. This idea of bearing witness (see Light 2010) can help to understand the role of war photographers and photojournalists, for example, but what about photographers who play more direct roles in the political process? Documentary photographers, in particular, participate in politics in a variety of ways, including as bureaucrats, advocates and experts.
There is a long tradition of documentary photographers working within public administrations. Dorethea Lange's Migrant Mother (1936) – probably the best-known image of the Great Depression – was taken for the Historical Section of FDR's Farm Security Administration. Like all bureaucrats, Lange faced institutional constraints and her fair share of frustrations. While she learned to navigate public institutions, others chafed against them. A case in point is Walker Evans, who took leave from the Historical Section to make Let Us Now Praise Famous Men for Fortune (Agee and Evans 1939). The book's images of impoverished sharecroppers with dirty clothes and blank expressions contrast with the pensive determination of Florence Thompson in Lange's Migrant Mother. Evans' image cast a cooler eye on FDR's policies and it would almost certainly not have been approved by the Historical Section.
Today, there are numerous examples of photographers working as bureaucrats but governments' preoccupation with 'image control' provides fewer opportunities for self-expression. Nevertheless, bureaucratic photographers can evade, whether intentionally or not, the tightest of institutional constraints. Pete Souza's The Situation Room (2011), showed Barack Obama and key advisors monitoring the raid on Osama Bin Laden's compound. Most of those gathered around the table were well known, but a partial glimpse of an unnamed CIA operative provided more information than the photographer or White House may have intended (Miller 2011).
The photographer as advocate must decide with whom to partner with to promote social change and what role images can play in, what Margaret E. Keck and Kathryn Sikkink (1998) call, the politics of information, symbolism, leverage and accountability. Jacob Riis campaigned for social reform in 1890s New York by taking photographs of slum conditions. He also partnered with Police Commissioner Theodore Roosevelt, who was driven to action by Riis's images. Riis took Roosevelt to police lodgings, which provided squalid conditions for the city's destitute. 'I will smash them tomorrow', was Roosevelt's response (Riis 1901: 249).
Among contemporary documentary photographers, few can claim to have shaped political outcomes more than Susan Meiselas, whose images of the 1981 El Mozote Massacre were examined by the United States Congress and the Truth Commission for El Salvador. In the 1990s, Meiselas worked with Human Rights Watch to photograph evidence of the Anfal campaign in which a reported 100,000 Kurdish civilians were murdered by members of Saddam Hussein's regime. Meiselas's photographs featured prominently in Human Rights Watch's report on this issue as well as being used as evidence in the trial of Saddam Hussein (Bui 2008).
The photographer who engages in advocacy faces questions over whether they can influence politics but also over whether they should. Aubert (2009: 10) criticises Riis for his 'utter lack of concern for the privacy of the immigrant workers and families he claims to be interested in, and his unfortunate tendency to set tenement flats on fire with his flashlight'. Susan Meiselas acknowledges the contradictions of a US citizen photographing the effects of US-made bullets in Latin America (Meiselas 1998).
A recent attempt to rethink the legitimacy of documentary photography can be found in the work of Activestills, a collective of Israeli, Palestinian and international photographers established in 2005 to protest against oppression, racism and violations of freedom. Attempting to go beyond the media and other traditional vehicles for photography, Activestills combines traditional reportage with street exhibitions and, what Maimon and Grinbaum (2016: 33) refer to as, 'visual activism'.
Activestills' approach to activism sees photographers as part of the communities that they represent and is perhaps best encapsulated by the title of Basel Alyazouri's (2016) essay Learning to Photograph While Running. Now international in its scope, Activestills' powerful photo diary of London's Grenfell Tower fire and the protests that followed illustrate the enduring ability of documentary photographers to raise awareness of, and advocate for, social issues (Ziv 2017).
The photographer as expert engages with actors from other disciplines to produce evidence and analysis in support of or against specific policies. These epistemic communities (Haas 1992) can tarnish the independence, impartiality and credibility of photographers who join them.
As a member of the Historical Section, Dorothea Lange fits the frame of photographer as bureaucrat. But her work can also be viewed as part of an epistemic community composed chiefly of progressive economists. She and her husband, Paul Schuster Taylor, a labour economist, documented migrant labour in California in the 1930s in An American Exodus. 'This is neither a book of photographs nor an illustrated book, in the traditional sense', wrote Lange and Taylor of their An American Exodus. We use the camera as a tool of research' (Lange and Taylor 1939).
Contemporary documentary photographers are uneasy with truth claims and, in the age of digital photography, vulnerable to accusations of fakery. For these reasons, perhaps, postmodern documentarians challenge the epistemic underpinnings of their own work, as in Sherrie Levine's After Walker Evans in which she re-photographed Evan's iconic Depression-era images.
Today, Sebastião Salgado comes closest to the idea of the photographer as expert. Trained as an economist in his native Brazil and later France before working on development issues with the International Coffee Organization. Salgado soon left to become a full-time photographer but economic ideas permeate many of his photographic projects.
Workers: An Archaeology of the Industrial Age (1993) is structured like an economic report, each chapter focused on a different sector in a different country, including sugarcane in Brazil, titanium and magnesium in Kazakhstan and oil in Kuwait (Salgado 1993). It can be read as a work of comparative political economy in which Salgado seeks not only to document but also understand the impact of industrial change on workers across the world.
Is there not a danger, as Lawrence Susskind (1994) puts it, of turning experts into 'expert witnesses'? Photographers as experts face such challenges, as in 2011, when Salgado's exhibition on global environmental issues at the Natural History Museum in London was sponsored by a Brazilian mining company (Haines 2013). 'The problem is not the oil companies or mining companies, but the system of life we've created' was Salgado's unsatisfactory answer (Haines 2013).
Can photographers directly influence politics? The answer is a qualified 'yes'. This qualification depends, in part, on the ability of photographers to harness the power of bureaucracies, advocacy networks and epistemic communities to which they sometimes belong. It also depends on the extent to which photographers can manage the contradictions inherent in the political process, be it those created by bureaucratic constraints, concerns over the legitimacy of activists and the credibility of experts.
None of this suggests that photographers will not find their work 'blown by the whims and loyalties of diverse communities', as Sontag (2004: 35) puts it. But it encourages scholars engaged in the emerging field of global visual politics (Bleiker 2018) to think of the diverse and sometimes influential roles that photographers can and do play in these policy communities.
This post draws on his article 'The Politics of Documentary Photography: Three Theoretical Perspectives' in Government and Opposition.

ClickFunnels versus Everybody Else.
Many people ask exactly how ClickFunnels as compares to other landing web page building contractors such as Leadpages, Unbounce, and also Infusionsoft.
Generally it's not actually a reasonable contrast due to the fact that each of these tools succeeds is one location or the various other.
The chart above provides a thorough evaluation – yet I'll highlight several of the major contrasts below.
ClickFunnels vs Leadpages
Prior to ClickFunnels, Leadpages was the big pet.
Leadpages is merely a lead capture software program – absolutely nothing more. You can create landing web pages, lead boxes, accumulate leads … that's virtually it. Furthermore, the Leadpages templates are additionally restricted on personalization.
ClickFunnels is much more flexible – it's a lot easier to make use of and also does so far more compared to produce lead capture pages.
Simply put, Leadpages is truly just a touchdown page contractor, while ClickFunnels is focused around developing very incorporated funnels.
ClickFunnels vs Infusionsoft
Infusionsoft is not a landing web page or sales page builder. It has several of that functionality constructed it, yet that's not just what it's recognized for.
At it's core, Infusionsoft is a CRM platform – one that permits you to manage your whole customer data source. ClickFunnels has this capacity with Actionetics, yet it's not almost as progressed as Infusionsoft.
Infusionsoft is likewise exceptionally expensive and pressures every new consumer to pay $2000 for a mandatory kickstart coaching plan just to learn ways to use the complex system (which is notoriously tough to use).
ClickFunnels Affiliate Program
There are two major courses people decrease as ClickFunnels users.
Those that choose to make use of the device for their service – in hopes of eventually accomplish both Comma Club (over $1M in profits).
As well as those that want gaining easy revenue as a ClickFunnels Associate and winning the Desire Auto Competition (where they pay $500/$1000 in the direction of your desire car if you reach 100/200 active month-to-month signups, respectively).
With a tremendous 40% regular monthly reoccuring compensation, ClickFunnels easily has among the best affiliate programs of any type of system available.
That's right – you make money an ongoing 40% commission on every associate signup you make via the ClickFunnels Affiliate Program. But, just what does that actually correspond to?
The standard plan is a $97/month financial investment and the Etison Collection strategy is a $297/month financial investment. for that reason you make $38.80 each fundamental plan and $118.80 per Etison Suite plan … each and every month!
Generally, every 100 signups will certainly bring in $4000/month in affiliate commissions (more or less depending upon the amount of Etison Plan users remain in there).

Volkswagen Update: November 2017
As we discussed at the dealer meeting, beneficiaries are in the process of being selected – they must be determined by December 2nd, which is only a few weeks away. If you have not reached out to your state's beneficiary to discuss propane school buses, please contact Chelsea Jenkins. She can work with you to develop an outreach plan.
To make your outreach easier, we've created a tool that you can to use to "speak the language" of the beneficiary. This one-page flyer is attached here. The main message of this document is that in a dollar for dollar comparison to reduce NOx:
- Propane is 35 percent more cost-effective than diesel school buses.
- Propane is 65 percent more cost-effective than electric school buses.
Also, we can tailor this document to your state.
Here is an updated timeline. Now is the time to schedule meetings with your beneficiary to discuss why propane is the best value based on NOx reduction. If you have any questions about the Volkswagen settlement or the Environmental Mitigation Trust, please contact Chelsea Jenkins at firstname.lastname@example.com. You can also visit ROUSHcleantech.com/volkswagen-settlement for regularly updated information.

About Me:
Four short years ago, I ran my first local 5k…and had to walk to finish. Undeterred, I set goals to get faster and get fitter, and over time, decided to run my first marathon. After a great deal of hard work and marathon troubleshooting, I eventually achieved what had become my ultimate goal: running a Boston Marathon qualifying time. After achieving that goal twice in the last year, and setting a new marathon PR of 3:11:52, I was disappointed when I learned that my time was below the cut-off standard and would not be accepted for entry into the 2019 Boston Marathon.
UPDATE: I'm very happy to inform you that on December 2, 2018 I ran the California International Marathon is 3:08:30, an automatic qualifying time for the 2020 Boston Marathon!
Why Boston:
After some initial disappointment, I reflected upon what makes the Boston Marathon so special: the unique collection of highly talented runners competing at the highest level in their sport, combined with those who have devoted a tremendous amount of time and effort to support local causes important to them personally or to the communities they represent. There is deep rooted tradition – the ultimate rite of Spring – that culminates annually on Patriot's Day, when the best of the human spirit is displayed for the world to see all along the historic route from Hopkinton to Boylston Street. This magical experience will be even more meaningful as I again chase my own personal goals while simultaneously helping others along the way.
Why Title IX Girls Running Club:
The physical health benefits of running are well documented. Perhaps more important is what running can do for your emotional and psychological well-being. Goal-setting, overcoming adversity, growing confidence and self-esteem, and celebrating success are all components of living an active life through running. As a father of two young children – including an active and competitive daughter – one of the reasons I run is so that my kids, even at a young age, are able to observe and grow up in an environment that emphasizes healthy living, a pursuit of dreams, and a commitment to a goal. It is important that in this day and age children – particularly young girls – are provided with all the tools, opportunities and role models to help them make good choices and navigate the challenges of growing up. Title IX Girls Running Club provides this positive setting for young girls, and I am happy to run in support of them.
TITLE IX GIRLS RUNNING CLUB INC wrote:
Title IX Girls Running Club is a community based, tax exempt, educational running club for preteen and adolescent girls. The running club uses the principles of running to strengthen the connections among emotional, psychological and physical health in girls ages 9 to 15.
WHY GIRLS…We think of the whole girl as a multi faceted social, emotional, and physical being who deserves activities that recognize her developmental stage. Our principal program the Whole Girl Workout was created to bridge the divide between a traditional recreational sporting environment and an educational experience of a clinical setting. This unique and comprehensive approach to educating the whole girl in mind, body and spirit uses running as the instrument in which to connect the three.

Of Ekiti And Its Legislators With Human Face
By Akogun Tai Oguntayo
Ekiti is now becoming great with intelligent and compassionate lawmakers both at the State and National Assemblies. Gone are the days when the State Assembly was occupied by the babalawos, agberos, scavengers and orchestras.
Just last week, Hon Ademola Ojo, representing Ijero Constituency, in an emotion laden voice moved a motion that philanthropists across Ekitiland should rise to save a former national female football star, Abidemi Aluko of cancer having commended how the First Lady, Erelu Bisi Fayemi for giving her ''a large sum of money''.
The Deputy Speaker, Rt Hakeem Jamiu, then rose, not only to second Hon Ojo's motion but also to disclose that the Governor, Dr Kayode Fsyemi had already instructed the Ministry of Health to take over Aluko's matter. He went further to confirm that the ministry was already on top of it as they spoke in the hallowed Chamber. The Speaker, Rt Hon Funminiyi Afuye in his magnanimity gave more than enough time for this humanitarian debate to show that this 6th Assembly is a House with human face.
Now with yesterday's motion in the floor of the House of Representatives in far away Abuja by our ever articulate and vibrant lawyer, representing Ekiti North Constituency 1, Hon Kunle Ibrahim Olanrewaju, it simply goes to say that Ekiti did not just elect bench warmers into the State and National Assemblies. Imagine, just like the Ekiti State House of Assembly Speaker, his senior counterpart in the green chamber, Rt Hon Gbajabiamila accepted Hon Olanrewaju's motion in-toto and Abidemi Aluko's health became a nation issue, pronto!
The simple interpretation of this is that Dr Kayode Fayemi had actually looked into the future of Ekiti and Ekiti people when he was democratically chopping for dedicated and highly cerebral candidates to take over the various legislative arms in order to ensure a synergy in governance.

Redecos are an established part of the Transformer toy life cycle. Looking especially at the last two years or so, if a toy can be given a new deco, it will, sometimes with a change in the television program to help support it. This has resulted in a virtual army of characters and toys with different color schemes than their original ones. Every now and then, redecos are based upon classic G1 characters, acting as homages. These tend to stand out above the others, and Nightscream R's color scheme is one of these. This toy is a redeco of the Energon Starscream mold, so please read that review for details on the toy. This review will cover the changes made to the toy for this release.
Vehicle Mode:
Nightscream R's vehicle mode is probably the one where his connection to his G1 counterpart is most evident. His basic color scheme is silver, light grey, red, blue and black. The central body is molded in silver plastic, with red and black used towards the front for detail near and around the cockpit. In a nice touch, silver paint wash is used on top of the silver plastic (it's a bit shinier) to bring out the jagged line details found on Nightscream's back. A bit of gold is used at the very front, offering an interesting extra color that blends nicely with the silver and red. The vertical fins towards the back are molded in silver too with red details painted on.
Like the previous version of this toy, Nightscream R employs the use of translucent plastic for certain parts. With the original, this indicated his "ghostly" self (which has also been shown on the television show). For this version, I believe it is more of an aesthetic choice as this supposedly represents the character in a more solid/corporeal form. This is evident by the wings. They are molded in dark, translucent blue plastic, but the tops are painted light grey, with red stripes at the edges (a classic G1 Starscream detail). The Decepticon symbols at the center of each wing are painted dark purple, contrasting nicely with the light grey.
Nightscream R's weapons have been molded in translucent blue, the same color as the wings. However, except for a bit of silver on the edge of the sword blade, they are paint free - and they look fantastic. The first version of this toy had some rather dark green, rather murky looking weapons. These are blue, but with light shining through them, they look almost light blue, as if glowing with energy. A very good color choice.
Solid or no, Nightscream R still seems to carry over damage from his previous form. The left wing has neon green on the part with sculpted damage patterns, which draws your eye to those parts. It's nice to see they didn't just try to paint over this detail in hopes that no one would notice.
While all of the joints in this form are still tight, the Powerlinx peg on the right side wing is a bit small, so the weapons you attach there may wind up swinging out to the side unintentionally. The peg on the left wing however, is fine.
Robot Mode:
Nightscream R's robot mode carries over the "G1 Starscream" look, and since the sculpt was designed to evoke the character anyway, the result is very cool. A huge splash of blue is added on to the figure in this form. The arms, waist and lower legs are all blue. His right shoulder and elbow piece is translucent blue while the rest of the blue parts are solid blue. The robot head is black with a silver face, and the two parts that stick up from the back (with the three circles in them) are painted red, with the circles painted gold, which looks great.
On each shoulder are red, triangular details painted on, but the left shoulder also used neon green for the circuit pattern details there. The lower arms each have light blue parts and on the lower legs, a slightly lighter shade of blue is used on the patches right above the feet. The alternating blue, silver and red details really do evoke the look of G1 Starscream, very nicely done.
The battle damage on the back, right side is still there, with silver paint wash on top of the sculpted detail bringing it out more. The battle damage was one of the more unique things about this sculpt, and it's nice to see those details were not neglected.
But wait, there's more! Not content with simply giving a figure and throwing it out onto the market, Takara took it upon themselves to give Nightscream R an extra Energon weapon and an Energon Star. The Energon weapon is the weapon included with Insecticon. Both the Energon weapon and the Energon Star have been redone in translucent, bright green plastic. At first, this color may seem a bit incongruous, but I believe it is meant to reflect the color of the expoosed circuitry on the figure, and in that context it goes very well with the toy.
Final Thoughts:
Before any recommendation is made, it is only fair to mention that a redeco of the Energon Starscream mold is planned for US release. However, if you look at it carefully, you'll note that it is much more 'solid' in color than this guy. Whether or not the final product will look like that is up in the air. The extra Energon weapon certainly gives a boost to this figures' value, but keep in mind this will typically cost you $20 at import shops right now. That aside, this is a really, really nice redeco and I personally highly recommend it.

The following deliverables and reports summarise the work performed by Solve-RD partners.
D1.3 Training modules, guidance document and online help module for collection of phenotypes
In order to engage users with Solve-RD and facilitate their contribution of phenotypic data to the project, we have developed training materials and have carried out training activities, which will continue in time. We have set up a practical guide to PhenoTips data entry, provided an in-depth YouTube video with instructions, organized our first training webinar for ERNs (available here) and created an option for uploading phenotype data using an Excel template. In addition, further support to researchers is provided by one-to-one tele-conferences for PhenoTips usage and by answering any queries they have through firstname.lastname@example.com.
D1.4 Deployment of PhenoTips custom forms according to the ERNs specifications
This deliverable report describes the adaptations and customisations CNAG-CRG have carried out in PhenoTips to allow for the collation of phenotype data tailored to each ERN and disease group. Users can enter data individually for each proband and family member through one of the customized templates, import information using JSON schemas or provide a filled-in Excel template for bulk upload.
D1.5 Guidelines for collection of experimental data
This deliverable report provides information on the guidelines that have been developed for experimental data collection for Solve-RD. These guidelines aim to aid and facilitate all data upload from all Solve-RD collaborators and ensure high quality standards are met.
D3.8 First summer school for ePAGs delivered
This deliverable report covers the first edition of the EURORDIS Winter School, the capacity building training programme for rare disease patient representatives on scientific innovation and translational research, which was held at the Imagine Institute for Genetic Diseases in Paris from 19-23 March 2018.
D4.3 Central RD-Connect database serving Solve-RD, including user authentication and authorization
Solve-RD will employ the RD-Connect Genome-phenome Analysis Platform (GPAP) to pool and enable controlled access to a large number of harmonised and integrated datasets from unsolved rare disease cases. This deliverable report describes the actions taken to ensure GPAP is serving Solve-RD, including steps for user authentication and authorization and how researchers can share their data.
D4.5 Metadata catalog operational, with initial content
In order for the resources that are contributed to and will be developed during the Solve-RD project a discovery system was required. Such a system is being developed based on proven technologies and a suitable set of standards. This deliverable focuses on the building of an initial version of the system, based on the Café Variome platform, for asset discovery called RD-NEXUS (Rare Disease Network for EXploring the UNseen). In order to build the system, a working data model for an agreed set of parameters (termed 'findable facets') was defined and integrated in to a data model. APIs allowing interoperability with other systems were also developed in collaboration with the GA4GH. Exemplar data have been processed and entered into the current RD-NEXUS system to illustrate its functionality and highlight any potential issues, before being demonstrated to potential users within the ERN networks. A complete first version of RD-NEXUS was thereby created, and is now available for demonstration and testing.
D4.7 All foundational standards selected and implemented across the project
Underpinning all activities at Solve-RD, from data submission, quality control, data dissemination to appropriate resources, discovery and finally distribution, a set of defined standards are required to ensure smooth and efficient data flow and interoperability between resources within Solve-RD and external resources. This deliverable focuses on defining and implementing the set of standards required to facilitate these processes, and here we describe how these standards have been established and implemented across Solve-RD.
D6.4 Solve-RD communication and dissemination tools
This deliverable report includes the Solve-RD communication and dissemination plans and describes the tools Solve-RD uses to implement both.

Six Flying Dragons has reached its 40th episode yesterday, and while it feels like yesterday when it first aired (after a long wait for it), so many things have changed, be it the characters or the relationship between them. We are fast approaching the ending (although it is still a mystery where they will end the story) and thanks to history and its sequel Tree with Deep Roots, we already know who will come out alive at the end of all these conflicts between the characters who were once on the same side. Well, except for Boon-yi. And it is probably a good time to wish her good luck for the remaining episodes.

It's less and less prudent to assume every doctor you meet is an MD. One in 10 physicians in Polk County and Florida has DO, doctor of osteopathic medicine, after their names.
It's less and less prudent to assume every doctor you meet is an MD.
One in 10 physicians in Polk County and Florida has DO, doctor of osteopathic medicine, after their names.
The 114, 425 osteopathic doctors practicing nationwide in 2018 were more than triple the 30,990 in 1990. If the growth continues, DOs could be more than 20 percent of all practicing physicians in 2030, according to the American Osteopathic Association.
DOs were 132 of 1,313 physicians with active licenses in Polk last year. The others are doctors of medicine, MDs, sometimes called allopathic physicians.
A lot has changed since osteopathic medicine began in the mid 1870s.
"Fifty years ago, doctors of osteopathy were often considered (solely) primary care physicians, but with the change in medical education availability and access, you see a lot more doctors of osteopathy in the specialties," said Dr. Terrence Delikat, osteopathic family practitioner in Bartow.
Nationwide, a little more than half are in primary care. Those include Delikat and Dr. Tammy C. D'Souza, family practitioner with Lakeland Regional Health Physician Group in Winter Haven, two of five interviewed.
Others were Dr. William Cooper, orthopedic surgeon at Gessler Clinic in Winter Haven; Dr. Andrew Gaugler, trauma and general surgeon with LRH; and Dr. Sarah M. Gaugler, internal-medicine hospitalist based at LRH Medical Center.
"I don't think a lot of people pay attention to the initials," Sarah Gaugler said, although she has encountered the "misconception you have to do primary care to go to DO school."
Surveying local hospital medical staff lists debunks that misconception.
Non-primary care specialties include vascular, general, neuro and orthopedic surgery; cardiology; anesthesiology, nephrology (kidney), pulmonology (lung), pain management, neurology, critical care, radiology, dermatology, obstetrics, urogynecology , psychiatry , rehabilitation medicine, oncology-hematology, pathology, emergency medicine and hospitalist.
"It is so rare I would get somebody ask me 'what is a DO?' " Cooper said. "I feel it's beyond that point."
DOs have privileges at all Polk hospitals
D'Souza initially encountered people who thought osteopaths treat bone, but she finds more awareness now.
"Some say 'I chose you because you're a DO … We don't want manipulation. We love your philosophy of medicine.' "
One in four medical students attends a college of osteopathic medicine.
They go through four-year medical training, then often do residencies and further specialty training.
"They take a holistic approach," Cooper said.
"They don't just look at one problem."
Osteopathic and allopathic physicians accept the validity of the others' training and skills. The fields are recognized as equivalent in the United States and the two intermingle easily.
Delikat, a Tampa native, has been chief of medicine at Bartow Regional Medical Center and medical director for Central Florida Physician Alliance, which includes both MDs and DOs.
Cooper, born in Michigan, was orthopedic surgery consultant for the White House in 2012-2015.
The osteopathic association and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education are finishing a transition to a single accrediting system for allopathic and osteopathic physicians getting residency training.
That will let DOs go to non-osteopathic medical programs for advanced training more easily and give MDs access to osteopathic training.
Osteopathic training includes osteopathic manipulation of muscles and joints to promote healing. There's typically 200 hours of that training in medical school.
Students are taught to notice "subtle changes in soft tissue anatomy" and become very comfortable with using their hands in treatment, Sarah Gaugler said.
"We learn to palpate tissue," D'Souza said. "We learn to diagnose dysfunction by hands-on touching of tissue."
The doctors spoke more about osteopathy's philosophy of treating the whole patient and the body's inherent ability to heal itself than about manipulation or palpation (using hands to check the body).
"Treating people as a whole person, not a disease (is) especially important for the specialty I practice where people's lives are torn apart," Andrew Gaugler said.
"Especially when it comes to complex injuries, it's not just the operation but a more holistic multidisciplinary approach to supporting healing via wound care, nutrition, physical therapy etc. that makes the real difference."
D'Souza applied only to one medical college, Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine, now Midwestern University.
Others considered both types.
"I recommend applying to both types of schools because getting in medical school is very difficult," Delikat said.
He applied to both, inside and outside the United States, after a professor at Florida Southern College put him in touch with students who went into the osteopathic tradition. He enrolled at Nova Southeastern University in South Florida, as did Cooper and both Gauglers.
Nova was the only osteopathic medical college in Florida until Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine came in the early 2000s.
Lake Erie's Florida campus is in the Bradenton area. Nova Southeastern University Dr. Kiran C. Patel College of Osteopathic Medicine has locations in Fort Lauderdale and Clearwater.
Nationwide, 37 osteopathic medical colleges are approved in 58 locations.
Access to more residencies and fellowship programs in Florida will be important to keep more osteopathic physicians here, some physicians said.
Andrew Gaugler, a Jacksonville native, went to the University of Mississippi for his surgical training, but came back to Jackson Memorial in Miami for his surgical care fellowship.
He and his wife, Sarah, from Tampa, intended to return to Florida to practice. Otherwise, like many other students, they might have been enticed to stay closer to where they did their residencies.
Cooper took the unusual step of doing his residency in a traditional allopathic program through the military. The switch initially threatened to cause difficulty when he came back to Florida to practice.
A single system for accredited residency training should remove that burden for future physicians, he said.
