 @misc{royal_cannedy_dent_2016, title={More on Diversity and Inclusion in Academic Medicine: The Isolation of Black Females}, volume={91}, ISSN={["1938-808X"]}, DOI={10.1097/acm.0000000000001215}, abstractNote={To the Editor: We recently read the research report by Person and colleagues1 on the topic of measuring diversity and inclusion in academic medicine. The topic of diversity and inclusivity is an important one for all the health professions, and other scholars will no doubt benefit from the useful tool (the Diversity Engagement Survey) the authors have generously shared with us. The authors found “black, Hispanic/Latino, female, and LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) respondents reported lower degrees of engagement than their counterparts,” and noted these findings are consistent with extant literature on these topics. We would like to briefly call attention to one key finding of this study that we have evidenced at both a medical school and a veterinary medical school in the United States as we believe it is a particularly important topic that deserves additional research. At the University of North Carolina School of Medicine we conducted a study involving social networks among medical students. Whereas most studies rely on the use of self-reported measures in which students provide ratings of their “sociability,” we utilized a study design in which students were presented a survey and the items consisted of a series of photo vignettes of other students in the same cohort. Students were asked to rate the strength of their social relationships with each of the other students. The most striking finding was that students reported significantly weaker social ties with black female students. It is important to note that all other demographic groups, including black males, reported similar levels of social ties with all other subpopulations. Relatedly, at North Carolina State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine we have observed a similar finding. Qualitative data have indicated that black females tend to be perceived as somewhat isolated from their peers, and black females also report feeling isolated. Again, this finding is not necessarily true for other demographic populations, including black males. Unquestionably, more research is needed in the area of diversity and inclusivity in medical education. However, we challenge researchers to devote particular attention to investigating black female subpopulations as this group of students appears to be particularly vulnerable and there is virtually a complete absence of literature on this subpopulation of medical students.

EGFR has long been considered a promising target for cancer diagnostic and therapeutic applications. However, monoclonal antibodies and other large antibody constructs diffuse into tumors slowly, limiting their efficacy. To develop lower molecular weight probes for EGFR and other tumor cell receptors, the authors immunized a llama with the extracellular domains (ECDs) of EGFR and an oncogenic mutant receptor, EGFRvIII, and with extracts of tumor cell lines. From the immune repertoire of the llama, the authors constructed a heavy chain variable domain (VHH domain)—phage library. At ~16 kDa, the VHH domain is a tenth of the size of a monoclonal antibody and is the smallest antibody fragment that retains specificity. By affinity selection from this library, the authors isolated many VHH domains with specificity for EGFR. The VHH domains bind to whole cells expressing the receptor but not to control cells lacking the receptor and can immunoprecipitate EGFR from cell lysates. Some VHH domains have cross-specificity with existing anti-EGFR monoclonal antibodies and have reasonably high (nM) affinities. The llama-VHH domain library is also potentially a rich source of targeting agents directed toward other tumor cell receptors.

The purpose of this study was to develop a B. bovis species-specific PCR assay that could be used to confirm the molecular prevalence of Bartonella spp. infection. Blood samples from 142 cattle were tested by conventional PCR targeting the Bartonella 16S-23S intergenic spacer (ITS) region. Overall, Bartonella DNA was detected in 82.4% (117/142) of the cattle using either Bartonella genus primers or B. bovis species-specific primers. Based upon size, 115 of the 117 Bartonella genus ITS PCR amplicons were consistent with B. bovis infection, which was confirmed by PCR using B. bovis species-specific primers and by sequencing three randomly selected, appropriately sized Bartonella genus PCR amplicons. By DNA sequencing, Bartonella henselae was confirmed as the two remaining amplicons, showing sequence similarity to B. henselae URBHLIE 9 (AF312496) and B. henselae Houston 1 (NC_005956), respectively. Following pre-enrichment blood culture of 12 samples in Bartonella alpha Proteobacteria growth medium (BAPGM) B. henselae infection was found in another three cows. Four of the five cows infected with B. henselae were co-infected with B. bovis. To our knowledge this study describes the first detection of B. henselae in any large ruminant species in the world and supports the need for further investigation of prevalence and pathogenic potential of B. henselae and B. bovis in cattle.}, number={3-4}, journal={Veterinary Microbiology}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Cherry, Natalie A. and Maggi, Ricardo G. and Cannedy, Allen L. and Breitschwerdt, Edward B.}, year={2009}, month={Mar}, pages={308–312} }
