Pineal Res. 1997; 22:102–106. © Munksgaard, Copenhagen Abstract was measured a species of bacteria, Erythrobacter longus , grown either constant light or dark. A radioimmunoassay used to quantify melatonin levels and thin‐layer chromatography confirm the identity immunoactivity. were significantly higher (nearly 2.3‐fold)...
<h3>Background</h3> Lymph node (LN) metastasis is an important predictor of survival for patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the prognostic significance extent LN involvement among N1 disease remains unknown. A study was undertaken to evaluate whether a higher number LNs associated worse independent known factors. <h3>Methods</h3> Using Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results-Medicare database, 1682 resected NSCLC diagnosed between 1992 2005 were identified. As...
Clinical prediction rules (CPRs) represent well-validated but underutilized evidence-based medicine tools at the point-of-care. To date, an inability to integrate these into electronic health record (EHR) has been a major limitation and we are not aware of study demonstrating use CPR's in ambulatory EHR setting. The integrated clinical rule (iCPR) trial integrates two assesses both usability effect on practice primary care A multi-disciplinary design team was assembled develop prototype iCPR...
This article documents the quality improvement process implemented by HIP Health Plan of New York (HIP) for behavioral health continuity-of-care measure, Follow-Up After Hospitalization Mental Illness. Employer Data and Information Set (HEDIS) measure identifies percentage members who receive psychiatric follow-up care after their hospital discharge. Studies indicate that post-hospitalization is an effective method reducing readmissions. HIP's mental services department pursued a number...
Abstract Background The location of the wire sensor to measure FFR and dPR has not been systemically studied. Therefore, we hypothesize that coronary physiological measurements will vary with sensor. This exploratory study is assess whole cycle pressure distal/pressure aorta (Pd/Pa) ratio, FFR, at different position within vessel evaluate impact drop based on position. Methods 54 patients who had an indication for angiography were screened 30 consecutive enrolled. OptoWire 2 or 3 generation...
