Cross-sectional study of psychiatric disorders in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain and individuals without pain
CONCLUSION: Positive correlations of mental disorders and chronic musculoskeletal pain have been documented. This suggests that psychiatric components must be taken into account in the management of chronic pain syndromes. The use of Mini Plus as a diagnostic tool for psychiatric disorders can contribute to optimizing the diagnosis and treatment of patients with chronic pain and encourage the creation of policies with strategies and criteria for quick access to Multi-professional Services.PMID:38730423 | DOI:10.1186/s42358-024-00375-x (Source: Adv Data)

A Report of Salaries of Academic Cardiothoracic Surgeons Based on Race and Ethnicity
CONCLUSIONS: The academic cardiothoracic surgery workforce lacks diversity, especially at the highest academic ranks. Salary equity among races/ethnicities is complex, requiring additional study. However, Black/African American cardiothoracic surgeons experience low representation and salary disparity at every academic rank measured.PMID:38723883 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2024.03.044 (Source: The Annals of Thoracic Surgery)
