Global incidence, prevalence, years lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), and healthy life expectancy (HALE) for 371 diseases and injuries in 204 countries and territories and 811 subnational locations, 1990-2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
Lancet. 2024 Apr 15:S0140-6736(24)00757-8. doi: 10.1016/S0140-6736(24)00757-8. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Detailed, comprehensive, and timely reporting on population health by underlying causes of disability and premature death is crucial to understanding and responding to complex patterns of disease and injury burden over time and across age groups, sexes, and locations. The availability of disease burden estimates can promote evidence-based interventions that enable public health researchers, policy makers, and other professionals to implement strategies that can mitigate diseases. It can also facilitate m...

The challenges of research data management in cardiovascular science: a DGK and DZHK position paper —executive summary
AbstractThe sharing and documentation of cardiovascular research data are essential for efficient use and reuse of data, thereby aiding scientific transparency, accelerating the progress of cardiovascular research and healthcare, and contributing to the reproducibility of research results. However, challenges remain. This position paper, written on behalf of and approved by the German Cardiac Society and German Centre for Cardiovascular Research, summarizes our current understanding of the challenges in cardiovascular research data management (RDM). These challenges include lack of time, awareness, incentives, and funding ...

Current understanding and knowledge gaps regarding wildlife as reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance
Am J Vet Res. 2024 Apr 22:1-9. doi: 10.2460/ajvr.24.02.0040. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAntimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious health issue shared across all One Health domains. Wildlife species represent a key intersection of the animal and environmental domains. They are a relevant but understudied reservoir and route of spread for AMR throughout the environment. Most wildlife AMR research thus far has focused on avian species, terrestrial mammals, and a selection of aquatic and marine species. Pathogens often identified in terrestrial wildlife include enteric zoonotic organisms such as Eschericia coli and Salmon...

Nutrition counseling in medical practices-a cross-sectional study
DISCUSSION: Doctors consider NC a relevant part of their work, despite many barriers. To make better use of NC as a measure for treating and preventing common diseases, improvements like better nutrition education for doctors, better funding, and more time for NC are required.PMID:38639815 | DOI:10.1007/s00103-024-03870-0 (Source: Bundesgesundheitsblatt, Gesundheitsforschung, Gesundheitsschutz)

HPNA Clinical Lecture Series - Advanced Practice Clinician Palliative Care Fellowship: A Leading-Edge Program
1. State various funding mechanisms to develop and sustain APC Fellowships.2. Discuss approaches to assessing patients ’ and families’ needs to tailor fellowship content.The looming workforce shortage of specialty palliative care clinicians is estimated to be 6000 to 18,000 (Lupu, 2010) As the population ages, the demand for expert palliative care professionals is increasing and the workforce will not be able to meet the demand. Specifically, Utah is one of the fastest aging populations in the U.S, with a projected 10% increase in persons 65 years+ by 2065. (Source: Journal of Pain and Symptom Management)

Trend and Hotspots of Plastic Surgery Guidelines: A Bibliometric and Visualization Analysis
Plastic surgery guidelines help plastic surgeons in clinical decision-making, outlining acceptable approaches to diagnosis, management, and prevention. And it attempts to define principles of practice that should generally meet the needs of most patients in most cases of plastic surgery. Bibliometric analysis can identify developmental trends and key areas of study, offering valuable insights for shaping experimental strategies and funding decisions. Despite bibliometrics' successful use in other medical fields, its application to plastic surgery guidelines is unexplored. (Source: Journal of Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery)

Anonymizing research funding applications could reduce ‘prestige privilege’
For research funders seeking to minimize bias in their selection process, removing applicants’ institutional affiliations from their submissions could help address a common disparity: disproportionate funding going to those at the most prestigious places. That’s the finding from researchers at the Arnold and Mabel Beckman Foundation, who reported last month in
eLife
that
anonymized applications partially reduced the effects of reputational bias and evened the playing field for early-career faculty at lesser known institutions
applying for their Beckman Young Investigator (BYI) awards.

PERSPECTIVE: Health Economic Interests at NIMH and NIDA to Improve Delivery of Behavioral Health Services
This article highlights key areas of the interest of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) in supporting applied health economics and health care financing research. Specifically, this article discusses the long-range impact of NIH's earlier investments in applied health economics research, and NIH's ongoing efforts to communicate its interests in health economics research. We discuss the 2023 NIMH-NIDA-sponsored health economics conference, and the ideas presented there for developing and assessing innovative behavioral health care financing models; three of the pre...
