Social networks have the potential to enhance Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) self-management. We used qualitative methods study if and how mobile application (app) functions that mobilize social resources improve T2DM management would be desired in a low-income African American community. Data were collected through community discussions in-depth interviews with 78 participants 2016–2018. Participants included individuals self-reported pre-diabetes, T2DM, close family members or friends of...

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) affects approximately 10% of the US population, disproportionately afflicting African Americans. Smartphone apps have emerged as promising tools to improve self-management, yet little is known about use this approach in low-income minority communities. Objective The goal study was explore which features an app were prioritized for people with T2DM a American community. Methods Between February 2016 and May 2018, we conducted formative qualitative...

COVID-19 challenged medical practice and graduate education. Building on previous initiatives, we describe reflect the formative process goals of Hematology-Oncology Collaborative Videoconferencing Learning Initiative, a trainee-led multi-institutional virtual learning model.Clinical fellows faculty from 13 US training institutions developed consensus needs, goals, objectives, recruited presenters, generated multidisciplinary curriculum. Weekly Zoom conferences consisted two instructional...

Abstract Molecular analysis of tissue samples from metastatic cancer lesions can improve our understanding drug response and resistance. Since prostate cells initially require androgen signaling through the receptor (AR) for proliferation, treatment involves surgical or chemical castration. While most patients respond initially, nearly all develop acquired resistance to combined blockade using both first second line agents. This is often related overexpression AR, which frequently driven by...

Abstract Solid organ transplant recipients (SOTRs) demonstrate reduced seroconversion and increased breakthrough infection rates following standard two dose mRNA vaccination against SARs-CoV-2. However, within a prospective cohort of SOTRs, the majority patients (72%) developed positive anti-Spike (S) IgG third vaccine dose, compared to only 15% doses. Those who failed respond uniformly received mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). To better understand mechanisms underlying divergent responses, both...
