To reduce the cost of health care while increasing efficiency and quality, systems are seeking innovative means to engage empower patients. Improved use information technology electronic record (EHR) infrastructure is essential, required for "meaningful use" as mandated by federal government. Providing personalized using tablets at point could enhance clinical experience enable efficient collection patient reported outcome measures guide decision making. The aim this study explore provider...
We study the causal effect of winning an Oscar Award on actor or actress's survival. Does increase in social rank from a performer performer's life expectancy? Previous studies this issue have suffered healthy survivor bias, that is, candidates who are healthier will be able to act more films and chance win Awards. To correct we adapt Robins' preserving structural accelerated failure time model $g$-estimation method. show simulation approach corrects bias contained previous studies. estimate...
Electronic health record (EHR) data, collected primarily for individual patient care and billing purposes, compiled in information exchanges (HIEs) may have a secondary use population surveillance of noncommunicable diseases. However, data compilation across fragmented sources into HIEs presents potential barriers quality is unknown.We compared 2015 from mid-size system (Database A) to System A patients the Utah HIE B). We calculated concordance structured (sex age) unstructured (blood...
During the 2013-2014 influenza season, Public Health England extended routine vaccination to all 2- and 3-year-old children in England. To estimate impact of this change policy on influenza-related morbidity mortality, we developed a disease transmission surveillance model informed by real-world data.We combined literature data sources construct Data were obtained for four seasons, starting with 2010-2011 season. Bayesian inference was used parameters season-by-season basis assess targeting...
Aim To explore the influence of health beliefs and behaviours on diabetes management in British Indians, as successful is dependent underlying cultural behaviours.British South Asians are six times more likely to suffer from type II than those general population. Yet, little research has been carried out into about among Indian population.The study used semi-structured interviews, a structured vignette pile-sorting exercise. In all, 10 Indians were interviewed at General Practice North West...
This study set out to evaluate influenza- and respiratory-related illnesses recorded during primary care physician consultations in England following the H1N1 pandemic 2009 enable development of a dynamic disease model. Data were obtained from Clinical Practice Research Datalink records over four influenza seasons (2010–2014). The outcome was incidence diagnoses, calculated per practice by season age group. Upper respiratory tract infection diagnoses most frequently (mean seasonal level...
Self-timed systems will have a major role in integrated circuit design the future. Our analysis shows that, using current technology, area penalties outweigh advantages for all but few types and feature sizes must be scaled down further before self-timed come into widespread use.
Disseminated adenovirus (AdV) infection is associated with high mortality rates in pediatric patients who have undergone hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT); however, the incidence and predictors of disseminated AdV are not well described. This study describes first-year infections recipients allogeneic HCT enrolled a US health plan. MarketScan Research Databases were used to identify enrollees an ICD-9 or CPT procedure code for autologous between June 26, 2010 30, 2014. Eligible...
Introduction: Research demonstrates dietary modifications in post-stroke patients facilitated by nutrition consultations improve post stroke recovery and reduce risk of recurrent stroke. Racial/ethnic differences practices demonstrate that focused counseling minority groups may be needed. It is unknown to what extent clinicians are providing ambulatory office visits. Methods: We used data from the 2011 2016 National Ambulatory Medical Care Surveys assess trends diet during routine visits...
