Efficacy of a Hospital Discharge Transition Plan in the care competence of patients with chronic conditions and their family caregivers: a clinical trial
CONCLUSION: the Hospital Discharge Transition Plan increased the patients' and family caregivers' care competence after the intervention, as well as the patients' adherence to the treatment. However, there were no differences between the control and intervention groups, possibly due to the similarity of the activities.PMID:38655933 | DOI:10.1590/1518-8345.6620.4104 (Source: Revista Latino-Americana de Enfermagem)

A meta-analysis of cognitive reappraisal and personal resilience
Clin Psychol Rev. 2024 Apr 7;110:102428. doi: 10.1016/j.cpr.2024.102428. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCognitive reappraisal, an adaptive emotion regulation strategy that involves subjectively reinterpreting stressful and adverse experiences in a more positive manner, can enhance personal resilience. Personal resilience is a constellation of attributes that facilitate successful coping and an expeditious return to adaptive functioning after exposure to stress or adversity. This meta-analysis evaluated the association between cognitive reappraisal and personal resilience. A systematic and exhaustive search identified 64 ind...

Emergency Surgical Treatment and Triage: Targeting Optimal Outcomes for Emergency Surgical Patients From Index Encounter Through Definitive Care
DISCUSSION: Improving time-based KPIs for delivery of clinical services is a common goal of medical emergency response systems (MERS) in numerous specialties. Implementation of an ESTAT program provides a screening tool for at-risk patients and reduces time to stabilize, diagnose and triage to definitive surgical intervention. These time benefits may ultimately translate to reduced complication rates for ESC patients. ESTAT may also represent a patient onboarding mechanism for surgical specialty verification programs promoted by quality improvement committees of various professional societies.PMID:38655840 | DOI:10.1177/00...

Alcohol consumption during pregnancy by women from southern Brazil: a cross-sectional study
CONCLUSIONS: Alcohol intake during pregnancy is common and affects nearly one-third of pregnant women. Knowledge of the population at risk and protective factors is essential for the development of campaigns that seek to reduce consumption and, therefore, its consequences for the mother and fetus.PMID:38655982 | DOI:10.1590/1516-3180.2023.0186.R1.08022024 (Source: Sao Paulo Medical Journal)

Prevalence of adult attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) among medical students in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia
CONCLUSION: The study demonstrated a higher prevalence of adult ADHD among medical students in the Eastern Province than the reported rates locally and globally. This could be attributed to social and cultural factors, as well as the chosen method for assessing the symptoms of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual items.PMID:38657995 | DOI:10.15537/smj.2024.45.4.20230841 (Source: Saudi Medical Journal)

Development and validation of a clinical prediction model for prognostic factors in patients with primary pontine hemorrhage
Braz J Med Biol Res. 2024 Apr 19;57:e13359. doi: 10.1590/1414-431X2024e13359. eCollection 2024.ABSTRACTWe aimed to develop a prognostic model for primary pontine hemorrhage (PPH) patients and validate the predictive value of the model for a good prognosis at 90 days. A total of 254 PPH patients were included for screening of the independent predictors of prognosis, and data were analyzed by univariate and multivariable logistic regression tests. The cases were then divided into training cohort (n=219) and validation cohort (n=35) based on the two centers. A nomogram was developed using independent predictors from the train...

Prehospital chest tube placement: Which factors are associated with feeling confident to perform the procedure?
CONCLUSION: Prehospital chest tube placement is rare, but potentially lifesaving. An adequately high level of subjective confidence in the placement of chest tubes is a key condition for prehospital emergency doctors. Inhospital clinical routine and attendance at simulation courses are significantly associated with high levels of confidence. Our data indicate that working only in prehospital emergency settings without further clinical routine or medical specialization is not sufficient for achieving and ensuring subjective confidence in chest tube placement.PMID:38658233 | DOI:10.1016/j.zefq.2024.03.009 (Source: Zeitschrif...

Canadian vaccine safety surveillance reports following immunization with seasonal influenza vaccines, 2021-2022
CONCLUSION: Findings from our analysis of reports to CAEFISS and CVD following vaccination with SIV are consistent with the known safety profile of SIVs distributed during the 2021/2022 influenza season. The majority of reports were non-serious with the most common AEFI symptoms occurring at the vaccination site or systemic symptoms that were self-limiting. The majority of vaccination error reports involved the administration of the vaccine at an inappropriate site, although no serious AEFIs were reported.PMID:38655243 | PMC:PMC11037881 | DOI:10.14745/ccdr.v50i12a02 (Source: Can Commun Dis Rep)

A novel simulated media system for in vitro evaluation of bioequivalent intestinal drug solubility
In this study we have compared literature Fa/FeHIF drug solubilities to values measured in a novel in vitro simulated nine media system for either the fasted (Fa9SIF) or fed (Fe9SIF) state. The manuscript contains 129 literature sampled human intestinal fluid equilibrium solubility values and 387 simulated intestinal fluid equilibrium solubility values. Statistical comparison does not detect a difference (Fa/Fe9SIF vs Fa/FeHIF), a novel solubility correlation window enclosed 95% of an additional literature Fa/FeHIF data set and solubility behaviour is consistent with previous physicochemical studies. The Fa/Fe9SIF system t...
