Background: Worldwide efforts are under way to improve the quality of clinical practice. Most measurements, however, poorly validated, expensive, and difficult compare among sites. Objective: To validate whether vignettes accurately measure practice by using a comparison with standardized patients (the gold standard method), determine more or less accurate method than medical record abstraction. Design: Prospective, multisite study. Setting: Outpatient primary care clinics in 2 Veterans...
Administrative data play a central role in health care. Inaccuracies such are costly to systems, they obscure research, and affect the quality of patient care.We sought prospectively determine accuracy primary secondary diagnoses recorded administrative sets.Between March July 2002, standardized patients (SPs) completed unannounced visits at 3 sites. We abstracted 348 medical records from these obtain written made by physicians. also examined files identify on encounter forms extracted...
Objective Recent educational reform in US medical schools has created integrated curricular structures. This study investigated how stakeholders a newly curriculum – students, course directors and leaders define integration perceive its successes challenges during first year. Methods We conducted interviews with leaders, year students. Interview transcripts were analysed for themes, which compared within across stakeholder groups. Results Three four Year 1 six students interviewed. Fifteen...
Abstract Medical schools have reduced the time allotted to anatomy instruction. Consequently, engage students in more independent settings using information and communication technologies (ICT). There has been limited research use of video aids, a type ICT, enhance examination performance. The objective this study is describe design, usage, effect on performance eight locally developed instructional videos. First‐year UCSF medical ( n = 141) had access They reported their reason for...
PURPOSE Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–targeted therapy is standard of care for HER2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer, but most patients develop progressive disease with persistent HER2 expression. No definitive treatment guidance currently exists beyond second line. Trastuzumab duocarmazine (T-Duo) a third-generation, HER2-targeted antibody-drug conjugate that demonstrated efficacy and acceptable safety in phase I studies heavily pretreated HER2+/HER2-low cancer. METHODS In...
All HIV seronegative (HIV Ab-) and most seropositive Ab+) individuals' lymphocytes failed to proliferate in primary cultures response purified or recombinant envelope core antigens of HIV, even the presence interleukin 2 (rIL-2). Most Ab- Ab+ lymphocytes, however, could be induced by rIL-2 lysates Escherichia coli Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These findings indicate selective defects lymphocyte proliferative responses before development AIDS which are unable any antigens. cell-mediated immune...
To conduct a post-Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments of 2008 multisite, multicohort study called the Pathways Project to assess performance and trajectory medical students disabilities (SWDs).From June December 2020, authors conducted matched cohort SWDs nondisabled controls from 2 graduating cohorts (2018 2019) across 11 U.S. MD-granting schools. Each SWD was controls, one their institution and, whenever possible, for Medical College Admission Test score self-reported gender....
This study aimed to evaluate and report the national prevalence of disability across undergraduate medical education (UME) examine differences in category disability, accommodation practices between allopathic (MD)- osteopathic (DO)-granting programs.Between May 20 June 30, 2020, 75% institutional representatives at eligible DO schools responded a web-based survey. The survey assessed aggregate disabled students, students by accommodations granted. Descriptive statistics were used summarize...
ABSTRACT Background The learning environment (LE) refers to the social interactions, organisational culture and physical spaces that shape learners' perceptions learning. With numerous efforts measure improve it, there is still a lack of clearly identified, evidence‐based interventions impact LE. Our aims were design LE their effectiveness using comparison student responses on Association American Medical Colleges Graduation Questionnaire (AAMC GQ). Approach Root causes problems in...
Rates of screening, brief intervention, and referral to treatment (SBIRT) for alcohol drug use by physicians remain low, despite evidence efficacy. Motivational enhancement therapy (MET) may be a promising means help resolve ambivalence about intervening with users take advantage educational opportunities. In the present study, 9 internal medicine residents received MET prior standard education in SBIRT. Residents’ self-reported SBIRT attitudes behaviors were measured before intervention at...
A major barrier to actualizing the public health impact potential of screening, brief intervention, and referral treatment (SBIRT) is suboptimal development implementation evidence-based training curricula for healthcare providers. As part a federal grant develop implement SBIRT in medical residency programs, authors assessed 95 internal medicine residents before they received identify self-reported characteristics behaviors that would inform curriculum development. Residents’ confidence...
Abstract Background Professional organizations have called for individualized training approaches, as well opportunities resident scholarship, to ensure that internal medicine residents sufficient knowledge and experience make informed career choices. Context Purpose To address these issues within the University of California, San Francisco, program, we created Areas Distinction (AoD) program supplement regular clinical duties with specialized curricula designed engage in research, global...
In 2019, 4.6% of US-MD students self-identified as with disabilities (SWD); many these will require accommodations on the USMLE Step-1 examination. Given high-stakes nature for medical school advancement and residency match, SWD denied face considerable consequences. To date no study has investigated rate accommodation denial its impact operations.To investigate evaluate whether impacts operations, a 10-question survey was sent to Student Affairs Deans disability resource professionals at...
16 Background: Lenvatinib (LEN) is a multikinase inhibitor of VEGFR 1−3, FGFR 1−4, PDGFRα, RET, and KIT. Pembrolizumab (PEM), an anti-PD-1 antibody, approved monotherapy for previously treated patients (pts) with PD-L1 (+) (tumor proportion score ≥1%) metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (mNSCLC; objective response rate [ORR] 18%). We report interim results ongoing phase 1b/2 trial LEN + PEM in pts solid tumors, focusing on the mNSCLC cohort. Methods: In this multicenter, open-label study...
Introduction: Thyroid being an actively functioning gland is subjected to series of disturbances, both physiological and pathological. It may be affected by various disorders like developmental, inflammation, hyperplastic neoplastic that present with similar sign symptoms. Almost any disorder thyroid can as a nodule. The nodule common problem faced the clinicians they cause apprehension due their unpredictable behaviour. Method: A total 110 patients were studied. All underwent FNAC after...
Purpose: The number of medical students disclosing disabilities and requesting accommodations is increasing, 1–3 prompting new questions about performance with (SWD) on United States Medical Licensing Exam (USMLE) examination scores to match into residency. Historical data SWD suggest lower extended time graduation, 4,5 but little known whether category disability accommodation the Step 1 impact performance, rates. Our aim was determine outcomes residency by they received 1. Methods: A...
