PURPOSE: To compare the sensitivity and specificity of technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), spiral (CT), magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, power Doppler ultrasonography (US) for detection localization acute pyelonephritis by using histopathologic findings as standard reference. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Bilateral vesicoureteric reflux was surgically created in 35 piglets (70 kidneys). One week later, a liquid bacterial culture...
Background/Objectives: Limited evidence is available regarding insulin total daily dose (TDD), or the factors associated with TDD, among adults type 2 diabetes (T2D) using multiple injections of (MDI). Our aim was to determine percentage in United States (US) T2D who are prescribed MDI, their and potential TDD. Methods: This retrospective cohort study used deidentified data from US IQVIA ambulatory electronic medical record database (≥18 years) initiating MDI (≥3 basal-plus-prandial...
An online survey was conducted to assess the perspectives and use of diabetes technologies by a sample U.S. primary care physicians (PCPs) endocrinologists optimize intensive insulin therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes. Overall, reported using more frequently than PCPs for requiring basal-bolus therapy. who were highly focused on management delivery devices (insulin pumps wearable tube-free patches) when are not achieving their A1C target while taking basal plus three or prandial...
Three children, aged 7–10 years, with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia presented back pain, along a mild kyphosis. Collapse of the vertebral bodies at multiple levels was shown on imaging. Chemotherapy resulted in pain resolution and spontaneous remodelling vertebrae.
Age-Friendly Health Systems (AFHS) commit to providing evidence-based, low-risk, coordinated care centered on what matters most older adults, their families, and caregivers. Nova Southeastern University's South Florida Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Program (NSU SFGWEP) has partnered with primary clinics provide AFHS training support promote transformation in Broward Miami-Dade Counties. NSU SFGWEP provides face-to-face virtual for Electronic Record (EHR) documentation as part of the...
Persistence with multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) may be challenging for patients type 2 diabetes (T2DM). However, limited information is available regarding the effect of persistence MDI on outcomes.To evaluate basal and bolus therapy assess its relationship clinical economic outcomes in a real-world setting.This retrospective matched cohort study used 2012-2015 data from U.S. commercial health plans (IBM MarketScan). Patients T2DM aged 18-64 years ≥ claims during 12-month period...
Background: Percutaneous injuries from needlesticks are a major occupational hazard for nurses. Local Problem: Reducing subcutaneous insulin-related needlestick was part of nurse-led comprehensive sharps injury-reduction program at an integrated, not-for-profit health system. Methods: The incident rate compared between 1 year before and after introducing this quality improvement project. Interventions: A system-wide educational instituting changes in insulin administration practices combined...
Introduction & Objective: People with T2D may require higher total daily doses (TDD) of insulin progression to MDI. Study aim was examine impact different reservoir sizes for adults on MDI transitioning a patch pump. Methods: Adults (≥18 yr) (≥3 injections) were included from the US IQVIA ambulatory electronic medical record dataset (01/2017 - 07/2022). Using mean TDD per person, we estimated number (%) people whom 200-unit (u) and 300u reservoirs would be sufficient wear times pumps...
Introduction & Objective: Factors affecting insulin dose for adults with T2D on MDI are less known. This retrospective observational study evaluated potential factors impacting TDD. Methods: US (≥18 years old) using (defined as basal and prandial insulin, ≥3 daily injections) were included from the IQVIA ambulatory electronic medical record dataset (01/2017 - 07/2022). The TDD was calculated at first evidence of (index). We used a generalized linear model regression analysis log link...
