<h3>Introduction:</h3> Screening and referral for Social Behavioral Determinants of Health (SDOH) are increasingly recommended in clinical guidelines consensus statements. It is important to understand barriers facilitators implementation standardized SDOH screening practices, as well the scope current existing screening. <h3>Methods:</h3> We conducted a mixed-methods study state assess implementing practice Boston community health centers (CHCs) pediatric patients. requested all documents...
To develop a bone shape measure that reflects the extent of cartilage loss and flattening in knee osteoarthritis (OA) test it against estimates disease severity.A fast region-based convolutional neural network was trained to crop joints sagittal dual-echo steady-state magnetic resonance imaging sequences obtained from Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI). Publicly available annotations menisci were used as references annotate tibia femur 61 knees. Another deep (U-Net) developed learn these...
Children with medical complexity (CMC) have high readmission rates, but relatively little is known from the parent perspective regarding care experiences surrounding and factors contributing to readmissions. We aimed elicit perspectives on circumstances 30-day readmissions for CMC.
Abstract We conducted a household survey among 6061 adults in Lesotho to (1) assess the prevalence of moderate/severe mental health (MH) and substance use (SU) problems (2) describe MH SU service cascades, (3) predictors problem awareness (i.e., having MH/SU that requires treatment). Moderate/severe or was reported between 0.7% for anxiety past 2 weeks 36.4% alcohol 3 months. The treatment gaps were high both (62% gap; 82% gap) (89% 95% gap). Individuals with higher than median wealth had...
Background: Disparities in rates of cancer screening are observed underserved populations. Lack stable health insurance may contribute to these disparities. The goal this study was examine the association between stability and up-to-date Methods Findings: We enrolled 333 community participants aged 40-74 years across four different sites three states: Chinese Americans Boston, Massachusetts; Hispanics Columbus, Ohio; Appalachian populations from Ohio's counties; Blacks African Philadelphia,...
Background Extremely preterm (EP) birth is associated with higher risks of perinatal white matter (WM) injury, potentially causing abnormal neurologic and neurocognitive outcomes. MRI biomarkers distinguishing individuals without disorder guide research on EP antecedents, clinical correlates, prognoses. Purpose To compare multiparametric quantitative (qMRI) parameters EP-born adolescents autism spectrum disorder, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, or cognitive impairment (ie, atypically developing)...
Abstract Objective Infection of the placenta has been associated with preterm birth as well neurocognitive impairment. This study aimed to determine whether specific bacterial species in extremely pregnancies are neurological deficits later life. Study Design Using data from 807 children ELGAN risks a low score on six assessments relation 15 different microbes were quantified odds ratios. Results The presence certain microbial was lower scores numerical and oral language assessments....
Abstract The Smith‐Lemli‐Opitz syndrome (SLOS), or RSH syndrome, is a well‐characterized multiple congenital anomalies/mental retardation syndrome. phenotype has been redefined to include mildly affected individuals with minor anomalies and developmental delay, severe malformations pre‐ perinatal mortality. condition due the deficient activity of enzyme 7‐dehydrocholesterol (7‐DHC) reductase [Shefer et al., 1995 : J Clin Invest 96:1779–1785], gene mapped chromosome 11q13 [Moebius 1998 Proc...
Massachusetts has one of the highest rates 30-day readmissions in country. To identify patient-reported factors that may contribute to readmissions, we conducted semi-structured interviews with patients unplanned within 30 days inpatient discharge from medicine services at an urban medical center between June and August 2016. Interviews and/or proxies were English, Spanish, Mandarin, or Cantonese, then translated English if necessary, transcribed verbatim, deidentified. A team four coders...
Our objectives were to confirm the reported association between early amniocentesis and congenital foot anomalies as well report, for first time, on outcome of amniocenteses performed during 13th 14th weeks gestation.We conducted a triple cohort retrospective study 4457 amniocenteses. Cohort definitions: (EA), 11 0/7 days 12 6/7 days; midtrimester (EMA), 13 14 (MA), 15 19 days. Outcome measures obtained by searching Alberta Congenital Anomalies Surveillance System (ACASS) database children...
Abstract Background The World Health Organization’s (WHO) Mental Gap Action Programme (mhGAP) is a validated intervention that can be provided by non-specialised healthcare workers to individuals with unhealthy alcohol use. However, it typically requires several in-person sessions at health facility, which may limit its feasibility and effectiveness in remote settings. This trial compares mhGAP-Standard, 4 6 session intervention, mhGAP-Remote, 1 followed 8 week of short message service (SMS)...
As the demand for secondary batteries surges with growth of electric vehicle market, challenges related to disposal and recycling used are escalating. Proper lithium-ion (LIBs) necessitates implementation an efficient discharge process deplete their stored energy. Successful disassembly hinge on conducting a thorough discharge, including deep overdischarge, effectively eliminate This study aims provide comparative analysis electrochemical behavior during overdischarge. Coin-type full cells...
Abstract Objective To examine perceived inpatient care quality according to regional socioeconomic status (SES), measured by household income, across the United States and Taiwan. Data sources Patient Experience in Hospital Care (PEHC) survey 2018–2019 data from National Taiwan University; US Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers Systems (HCAHPS) CMS.gov ; income facility publicly accessible databases. Study design This retrospective study used multivariate logistic regression estimate...
