The broad range and diversity of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) function to induce an antiviral state within the host, impeding viral pathogenesis. While successful respiratory viruses overcome individual ISG effectors, analysis global response subsequent antagonism has yet be examined. Employing models human airway, transcriptomics proteomics datasets were used compare patterns following highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza (HPAI) A virus, 2009 pandemic H1N1, severe acute syndrome...
The public health economy is defined as the second major "economy" next to traditional growth and employment economy. This paper defines critical areas of applied economic theory frame root causes inequity reproduction. It argues that current theories, including within theory, has not adequately accounted for whole Questions follow are intended recast a more grounded drawing from various fields study (e.g., implementation science, political economics, education, research, moral reasoning)....
To examine internal medicine residency program directors' (PDs') screening practices and perceptions about current recruitment challenges.In March-May 2017, the Association of Program Directors in Internal Medicine Survey Committee sent a survey to 373 Alliance for Academic member programs. PDs rated importance 23 inclusion 11 exclusion criteria interview invitation decision making, provided United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) cutoff scores U.S. medical school international...
Access Control policies allow one to control data sharing among multiple subjects. For high assurance security, it is critical that such be fit for their purpose. In this paper we introduce the notion of “policy quality” and elaborate on its many dimensions, as consistency, completeness, minimality. We a framework supporting analysis with respect introduced quality dimensions research challenges, including policy large-scale distributed systems, assessment correctness, expressed in richer models.
The increase in applications to residency programs, known as "application inflation," creates challenges for program directors (PDs). Prior studies have shown that internal medicine (IM) PDs utilize criteria, such United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step examination performance, when reviewing applications. However, little is about how early these filters are utilized the application review cycle.This study sought assess frequency and types of by IM during initial screening...
ABSTRACT Background Over the past decade, number of residency applications has increased substantially, causing many programs to change their recruitment practices. Objective We determined how internal medicine (IM) have responded by program type (community-based, community-based/university-affiliated, and university-based) characteristics (percentage international medical graduates, size, director [PD] tenure). Methods The Association Program Directors in Internal Medicine conducted a...
To identify host factors associated with arenavirus virulence, we used a cynomolgus macaque model to evaluate the pathogenesis of Lujo virus (LUJV), recently emerged that caused an outbreak severe viral hemorrhagic fever in southern Africa. In contrast human cases, LUJV mild, nonlethal illness macaques. We then compared this contrasting clinical outcomes during infection, specifically samples obtained from macaques infected three highly pathogenic lines Lassa (LASV), causative agent (LF)....
Successful collaborations require information and resource sharing thus adequate access control policy management systems that among the collaborating entities. Such need to be flexible in order adapt different environments able support evolution. However, when dealing with large sets of evolving policies it is critical meet certain "policy quality requirements". Specifically, interest must up-to-date, complete, free inconsistencies, relevant. In this paper, we propose an approach analyze...
Background: In May 2017, the Alliance for Academic Internal Medicine (AAIM) published guidelines intending to standardize and improve internal medicine residency program director (PD) letters of recommendation (LORs) fellowship applicants.Objectives: This study aimed examine PDs impressions new guidelines, letter writers' adherence impact LORs that conformed compared non-standardized letters.Methods: The authors anonymously surveyed from January March 2018 gather input about submitted their...
Some internal medicine residency program directors have expressed concerns that their third-year residents may been subjected to inappropriate communication during the 2016 fellowship recruitment season. The authors sought study applicants' interpersonal experiences with programs. Many respondents indicated they had asked questions would constitute violations of National Residency Matching Program (NRMP) Communications Code Conduct agreement, including how plan rank specific Moreover, female...
The scoring rubric on the USMLE Step 1 examination will be changing to pass/fail in January 2022. This study elicits internal medicine resident perspectives at national level.To assess opinions regarding and examine how variables such as gender, scores 2, PGY status type of medical school are associated with these results.In fall 2019, authors surveyed current residents via an on-line tool distributed through their program directors. Respondents indicated 2 Clinical Knowledge from five...
Gentrification is a type of neighborhood change (NC) that causes demographic shifts and improvement in the built environment. Adverse health outcomes associated with NC have not been consistently established literature. Yet, major methodological barriers define this field study including lack tailored culturally relevant measures. This aim was to assess psychometric properties novel adapted measures sought improve appropriateness for all literacy levels, enhance survey efficiency, features
Lyme borreliosis (LB) is the most common tick-borne disease in Europe. Although there are indicators that risk higher West of Ireland than other areas Ireland, regional incidence data to confirm this, and drive effective communication lacking. Professions (e.g. farming, forestry) or recreational activities hiking, trail running) require spending time tick habitats increase exposure. The perception key since it likely influence approach any mitigation measures individuals may take, with...

Neighborhood change is a social determinant of health (SDOH) that has been associated with adverse and increased care utilization. The number cities neighborhoods undergoing intense gentrification, defined as an influx wealthy populations into working-class neighborhood, not highly numerous. Public systems are increasingly engaged SDOH in community-level interventions. Pathways to study affect NC-related impacts limited. This unfunded provides research framework address concerns about...
