Baseline characteristics of parents enrolled in ACCL20N1CD: Financial distress during treatment for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in the US.

220 Background: Personal costs of childhood cancer can contribute to disparities in health outcomes. The purpose of ACCL20N1CD is to examine trajectories of parental costs and the associated financial distress, cost coping behaviors, and household material hardships (HMH) during treatment for pediatric ALL. Objective is to report baseline characteristics of the parents and their households. Methods: The study used a prospective cohort design with repeated measures. Setting was Children’s Oncology Group (COG) practices at National Cancer Institute Community Oncology Research Program (NCORP) institutions. Parents who use English or Spanish, and have children newly diagnosed with ALL treated at COG NCORP practices were eligible. Parents were asked to complete surveys at 3 time points, including baseline (T1; during induction and <7 days after planned induction remission evaluation). Surveys included items about (a) parent socio‐economic status, financial distress measured by 8-item Personal Wellness Scale (PFWS), and cost coping behaviors, and (b) HMH. Factors related to high PFWS scores were evaluated by logistic regression. Results: Of 104 evaluable parents, most were female (83.7%), white (65.4%), non-Hispanic (48.1%), partnered (79.8%), > high school diploma (93.3%), used English (84.6%), worked full (48.1%) or part (5.8%) time, and paid for their child’s care with public insurance (57.7%). Median household income=$50,000 (Inter-Quartile Range/IQR 20,000-100,000) for 4 (IQR 4-5) people. Not including wages lost due to caregiving, out of pocket payments for medical care + other ALL-related costs in the prior month >15% of monthly income for 51.9% of households, which is considered financially catastrophic. 24.0% of households lacked food stability; 21% had housing insecurity. Conclusions: At baseline, sizeable proportions of parents exhibit high out of pocket costs, high financial distress level, and multiple cost coping behaviors with implications for future health and individual and household quality of life.

Navigating financial risk: Unlocking the power of modeling and risk quantification in episode-based payment models.

28 Background: The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation’s (CMMI) Enhancing Oncology Model (EOM) is a voluntary value-based care (VBC) model that requires physician group practices (PGPs) to assume financial risk and performance accountability for episodes of care related to seven common cancers. However, PGPs often lack the means to assess the financial impact and risks associated with these alternative payment models. To address this, we employed Monte Carlo Simulations (MCS) to calculate the likelihood of outcomes and associated risks. This information can assist PGPs in making informed decisions about assuming risk and participating in the EOM. Methods: Using historical episode files from 2019 to 2022 for 23 PGPs in The US Oncology Network, along with the EOM Price Prediction Model provided by CMMI, we calculated the predicted baseline price and savings per episode. We then determined the average savings for each PGP per time-period and utilized the MCS technique to simulate savings and risk, under each EOM risk arrangement. We shared the simulation results with the PGPs to support their decision-making process and participation. Results: Despite having enough episodes per time-period (ranging from 105 to 6100) for the 23 PGPs, the limited number of time-based populations (only 6) based on case mix and patient volume made traditional probability assessments inadequate. To overcome this, we utilized MCS with 5000 simulations per PGP, assuming a normal distribution based on population characteristics. By assessing the savings outcomes of each simulation, we developed probability distributions and confidence intervals to determine the likelihood of generating shared savings, recoupment, or landing in the neutral zone within the EOM. Factors such as episode counts, baseline price, and risk arrangement had the greatest impact on the range of outcomes. We shared the MCS results with all 23 PGPs, highlighting the limitations of the original data and facilitating their decision-making process. Ultimately, 12 PGPs chose to assume risk based on the probability of financial outcomes with the model, and to select the appropriate risk arrangement in the EOM. Conclusions: Compared to the status quo measures of central dispersion, MCS yields a wide range of expected financial outcomes per PGP. MCS is a robust technique for quantifying outcome probabilities in VBC models despite low data volumes but relies on the representativeness and quality of the original data. Conducting sensitivity analysis with MCS to assess the impact of individual assumptions or data inputs on outcome probabilities is an area for further exploration.

The results showed that: (1) The content of the material in the SSKU ubudiyah practice book is considered good because it covers the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects of students at each level of education (ula, wustho, and 'ulya). (2) The implementation of the SSKU book goes through three main stages: planning (determining objectives, procedures, and schedules), implementation (including memorization activities, explaining, and individual and group practice), and annual evaluation to assess the implementation and success of the SSKU book as needed.

Navigating self-regulated online teaching: Educators’ response to the COVID-19 pandemic

Amidst the unprecedented challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the landscape of education has undergone profound transformations. One of the most notable shifts has been the rapid transition to online teaching methodologies. This transition has highlighted the critical role of teachers in self-regulating their instructional approaches while actively engaging in the realm of online learning. In this study, we delve into this dynamic environment, closely examining the practices of different age groups of educators: 177 teachers aged 20-30, 217 teachers aged 31-40, 68 teachers aged 41-50, and 15 teachers aged 51 and above. Our research takes a comprehensive approach, organizing the investigation into three distinct phases, each comprising six essential elements. Through this structured analysis, intriguing patterns emerge, particularly within the Performance and Appraisal Phase, where notable disparities among age groups within the Self-regulated Teaching Model become evident. In response to the multifaceted challenges posed by online teaching, our study proposes a compelling solution. We advocate for a strategic alignment of instructors from diverse age groups to collaboratively guide online courses. By harnessing the collective strengths and perspectives of educators across generations, this collaborative pedagogical approach has the potential to significantly enhance the efficacy of online teaching endeavors.

Interventions for Remarried Families

Remarried families become widespread as a type of family that differs from first marriages both developmentally and structurally. Due to its developmental and structural differences, both the quality and continuity of this families emerge as areas that need to be studied. To offer effective interventions to remarried families, researchers and practitioners in the field of mental health should have access to knowledge on this subject. The literature on remarried families emphasizes biological, non-biological and co-parenting related issues. The expectations, knowledge and perceptions of both the married couple, the children and the surrounding social environment of the remarried family is another important issue. Communication, problem solving, and conflict management can be an important tool in strengthening relationships and preventing negative experiences for families established through remarriage. It is seen that the interventions that deal with the mentioned characteristics of families formed through remarriage are given in the form of group practices, adopting a preventive approach, supported by practices that point to skill acquisition in addition to providing information. Programs offered for families formed through remarriage share commonalities such as remarried family development, parenting skills, communication and problem-solving skills. The effectiveness of interventions for remarriage has been tested by various studies conducted since the late 1970s. While testing the effectiveness of such interventions, it is seen that different outcome variables such as family integrity, dyadic satisfaction, relationship quality, marital continuity, conflict level, stress level and behavioral disorders experienced by family members are considered. Research findings show that interventions for remarriage are effective.

Prescriber-level surveillance of outpatient antimicrobial consumption to enable targeted antimicrobial stewardship: a nationwide observational study, Switzerland, 2015 to 2022.

BackgroundIn Europe and other high-income countries, antibiotics are mainly prescribed in the outpatient setting, which consists of primary, specialist and hospital-affiliated outpatient care. Established surveillance platforms report antimicrobial consumption (AMC) on aggregated levels and the contribution of the different prescriber groups is unknown.AimTo determine the contribution of different prescribers to the overall outpatient AMC in Switzerland.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective observational study using claims data from one large Swiss health insurance company, covering the period from 2015 to 2022. We analysed antibiotic prescriptions (ATC code J01) prescribed in the Swiss outpatient setting. Results were reported as defined daily doses per 1,000 inhabitants per day (DID) and weighted according to the total population of Switzerland based on census data.ResultsWe analysed 3,663,590 antibiotic prescriptions from 49 prescriber groups. Overall, AMC ranged from 9.12 DID (2015) to 7.99 DID (2022). General internal medicine (40.1% of all prescribed DID in 2022), hospital-affiliated outpatient care (20.6%), group practices (17.3%), paediatrics (5.4%) and gynaecology (3.7%) were the largest prescriber groups. Primary care accounted for two-thirds of the prescribed DID. Quantity and type of antibiotics prescribed varied between the prescriber groups. Broad-spectrum penicillins, tetracyclines and macrolides were the most prescribed antibiotic classes.ConclusionPrimary care contributed considerably less to AMC than anticipated, and hospital-affiliated outpatient care emerged as an important prescriber. Surveillance at the prescriber level enables the identification of prescribing patterns within all prescriber groups, offering unprecedented visibility and allowing a more targeted antibiotic stewardship according to prescriber groups.

Multifactorial Contributors to the Longevity of Dental Restorations: An Integrated Review of Related Factors.

This integrated review aims to identify and analyze the multifactorial contributors to the longevity of direct restorations, focusing on tooth-, patient-, and dentist-related factors. A search of the literature was performed using an electronic database, PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, and Scopus, on papers published between 1980 and 2024. The titles and abstracts of papers that evaluated aspects categorized into tooth-related, patient-related, and dentist-related factors influencing restoration failure were selected and screened. Full-text assessments were conducted, and the extracted data were compiled, summarized, and synthesized. The reference lists of the collected papers were also screened, and relevant citations were included in this review. Data were gathered from clinical and laboratorial studies, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses to provide a comprehensive understanding of restoration longevity. Among the tooth-related factors, multiple-surface restorations, deep margins, tooth location, and tooth vitality significantly impact restoration survival. Patient-related factors such as medical conditions, risk predictors of caries, age, sex, parafunctional habits, smoking, periodontal health, number of restorations, and socioeconomic status all play crucial roles. Regarding dentist-related factors, the decision-making process, age, experience, and dentist manual dexterity are vital aspects. Furthermore, the technique used, including isolation methods for moisture control, as well as the type of dental practice (large group vs. small practice), notably influenced the restoration survival. The longevity of dental restorations is influenced by a complex interplay of tooth-related, patient-related, and dentist-related factors. Strategies to improve restoration outcomes should consider all these multifactorial contributors. Continuing professional education, diligent patient guidance on the factors that influence restoration survival, careful material selection and restorative technique, and tailored individual treatment are crucial factors to reduce failure rates and improve the lifespan of restorations.

Beliefs, taboos, usages, health perceptions, and practices toward wildlife among different ethnicities in Tak and Mae Hong Son Provinces, Thailand

This concurrent qualitative study was carried out with the main objective to determine wildlife beliefs, taboos, usages, health perceptions, and practices among ten ethnic groups in four communities in Tak and Mae Hong Son provinces of Thailand from November 2020 to January 2021. We also gathered comprehensive information on study respondents’ knowledge related to potential risk behaviors that could lead to zoonotic disease transmission and infection. Furthermore, we intended to use the study’s findings to develop communication strategies and health literacy improvement interventions for mitigating risky behaviors, with a focus on ethnic groups and particular individuals who live in close proximity to forests and wildlife, to prevent future pandemics. Sixty-five respondents were purposively selected based on their extensive knowledge, active participation in local cultural contexts, beliefs, and exposure to wildlife contact or consuming game animals. Twenty (30.8%) participated in in-depth interviews (IDIs), while 45 (69.2%) participated in eight focused group discussions (FGDs). The results revealed that the characteristics of wildlife contact are similar and distinct based on their beliefs and taboos among various ethnic groups and study locations, which are influenced by cultural backgrounds and traditions. Although some ethnic groups do not have explicit restrictions on the consumption of wildlife, others adhere to specific beliefs and taboos that forbid the consumption or killing of specific wild animals. These beliefs frequently correspond with conservation initiatives, thereby facilitating the preservation of threatened species. The study also revealed a lack of appropriate health knowledge, perceptions, and practices regarding wildlife contact and consumption. As a result, it is recommended that public health officials and local governments develop and execute communication and education initiatives. These campaigns should aim to increase health literacy and promote safe handling, preparation, and cooking practices to reduce the risk of zoonotic disease transmission and infection effectively. Moreover, it is necessary to design and implement wildlife conservation education and outreach activities. The programs should promote environmental stewardship while considering the cultural contexts, beliefs, and practices of various ethnic groups. The activities should involve diverse stakeholders, including local leaders, religious influencers, community members, schoolteachers, students, health professionals, village health volunteers, and civil society organizations.

Advocacy: a reflection on my 30 years of orthopedic practice

As orthopedic surgeons, we have the responsibility for advocating for our patients and our profession, on the local, state, and federal levels. The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) created the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons to allow for political advocacy. The Association Political Action Committee, OrthoPAC, was created in 1999 and has become an effective tool in our advocacy committee. The American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES), along with many orthopedic subspecialty societies, has established an advocacy effort and works with the AAOS through the OrthoPAC as a member of the Advisor’s Circle, which is designed to provide AAOS Members’ group practices and specialty societies with a leadership role within the Political Action Committee of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons (Orthopaedic PAC). If we are to preserve individual patient access to specialized musculoskeletal care, we must support state and federal advocacy efforts. This can be in the form of financial support or personal involvement in relationship building. I encourage all members of ASES, especially the younger ones, to support your state orthopedic societies, the ASES, and the AAOS in their advocacy efforts. The well-being of our patients and the future of our profession depend on you.

Acute and Chronic Weight-Making Practice in Professional Mixed Martial Arts Athletes: An Analysis of 33 Athletes Across 80 Fights.

Mixed martial arts' popularity has increased in recent years, alongside descriptive research and evidence-based performance recommendations. Guidelines for (both chronic and acute) weight making exist; however, how these translate in real-life scenarios and detailed investigations on practices in larger groups deserve attention. The present study examined the body mass (BM) and composition of 33 professional mixed martial arts athletes preparing for 80 fights. Athletes were supported by on-site dietitians, who encouraged evidence-based practices. Fasted BM was measured throughout the last ∼10days before all bouts (acute weight management phase). A subset of athletes had body composition assessed before and after the chronic weight loss phase for 40 fights. Most athletes engaged in chronic BM loss, and all engaged in acute weight loss. Many lost fat-free mass (FFM) during the chronic phase, with rates of BM loss <0.5% best preserving FFM. Regardless of losses, the present athletes possessed greater FFM than other combat sport athletes and engaged in greater acute weight loss. Dehydration in the 24-48hr before the weigh-in was not reflective of weight regain after the weigh-in, rather BM 7-10days before the weigh-in was most reflective. These findings suggest that many mixed martial arts athletes could increase FFM at the time of competition by maintaining leaner physiques outside of competition and/or allowing increased time to reduce BM chronically. Acutely, athletes can utilize evidence-based protocols, eliminating carbohydrates, fiber, sodium, and finally fluid in a staged approach, before the weigh-in, reducing the amount of sweating required, thus theoretically better protecting health and preserving performance.

TEAM-CBT for Adolescents and Young Adults With Depression and Anxiety: Testing Short-Term Impact and Within-Session Change

The prevalence of mental health disorders has shown a notable rise in adolescents and young adults (Parodi et al., 2022). These developmental stages, adolescence and young adulthood, are peak periods for emerging mental health disorders, affecting around 49.5% of young individuals. Anxiety and depression have significant adverse and long-term effects that interfere with developmental tasks if not successfully treated (Merikangas, 2010).An evidence-based model, TEAM-CBT, incorporates the following treatment components: testing, empathy, agenda setting, and methods. The model’s impact on depression and anxiety was tested in a naturalistic study of adolescent and young adult clients in a group practice setting. T-tests and ANOVAs were used to test treatment effects, including changes between the first and final sessions, within-session changes, and the treatment response pattern.A total of N = 116 patients’ data was included in the analysis. Both depression and anxiety scores were significantly lower at posttest compared to pretest. The majority of adolescents and young adults achieved clinically significant improvement: 80% of youth no longer met criteria for clinically significant symptoms of depression symptoms, and 87% of youth for anxiety symptoms. No correlation was found between the number of sessions received and the treatment outcome. Within-session symptom reduction was clinically significant in each of the 10 sessions. The largest symptom reductions occurred over the first five sessions. Findings, recommendations, and implications are discussed.

Integrating causal pathway diagrams into practice facilitation to address colorectal cancer screening disparities in primary care

BackgroundColorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer death and the second most common cancer diagnosis among the Hispanic population in the United States. However, CRC screening prevalence remains lower among Hispanic adults than among non-Hispanic white adults. To reduce CRC screening disparities, efforts to implement CRC screening evidence-based interventions in primary care organizations (PCOs) must consider their potential effect on existing screening disparities. More research is needed to understand how to leverage existing implementation science methodologies to improve health disparities. The Coaching to Improve Colorectal Cancer Screening Equity (CoachIQ) pilot study explores whether integrating two implementation science tools, Causal Pathway Diagrams and practice facilitation, is a feasible and effective way to address CRC screening disparities among Hispanic patients.MethodsWe used a quasi-experimental, mixed methods design to evaluate feasibility and assess initial signals of effectiveness of the CoachIQ approach. Three PCOs received coaching from CoachIQ practice facilitators over a 12-month period. Three non-equivalent comparison group PCOs received coaching during the same period as participants in a state quality improvement program. We conducted descriptive analyses of screening rates and coaching activities.ResultsThe CoachIQ practice facilitators discussed equity, facilitated prioritization of QI activities, and reviewed CRC screening disparities during a higher proportion of coaching encounters than the comparison group practice facilitator. While the mean overall CRC screening rate in the comparison PCOs increased from 34 to 41%, the mean CRC screening rate for Hispanic patients did not increase from 30%. In contrast, the mean overall CRC screening rate at the CoachIQ PCOs increased from 41 to 44%, and the mean CRC screening rate for Hispanic patients increased from 35 to 39%.ConclusionsThe CoachIQ program merges two implementation science methodologies, practice facilitation and causal pathway diagrams, to help PCOs focus quality improvement efforts on improving CRC screening while also reducing screening disparities. Results from this pilot study demonstrate key differences between CoachIQ facilitation and standard facilitation, and point to the potential of the CoachIQ approach to decrease disparities in CRC screening.

Everyone should have their own midwife: Women’s and staff experiences during the implementation of two midwifery continuity of care models in regional Australia

ProblemMidwifery Continuity of Care (MCoC) remains inaccessible for most Australian women; this is especially true in rural and regional areas. BackgroundStrong evidence demonstrates MCoC models improve experiences for women and their babies and are also shown to improve midwifery workforce wellbeing. However, implementation and upscale remains limited. AimTo explore the views and experiences of implementing MCoC for both staff and women, understanding their experiences, concerns and solutions in a regional context. MethodsQualitative data was collected via focus groups with women and healthcare staff, at six and twelve month post implementation. Data was thematically analysed using Braun and Clarke six step process. FindingsThe findings support that ‘women love it’ and midwives working in the new MCoC model ‘loved their job’. The major concern was that not all women could access the model and disconnected communication was problematic during implementation. ‘Sharing stories’ was a solution to overcoming these issues and promoting the positive impact of MCoC - in particular ways of working and adaption to an all-risk midwifery group practice. DiscussionThis study supports widespread evidence that MCoC is valued by both women and staff. In a regional context it is important to recognise challenges faced during implementation and identifying solutions that other maternity services could consider when implementing MCoC. ConclusionThe study offers strong recommendation for regional areas to consider MGP to maintain safe, quality local maternity services.

Research on the Development Strategy of Wine Enterprises based on ESG Concepts

In recent years, as "carbon neutrality" and "carbon peak" have become hot topics in the international community, low-carbon recycling has gradually become an indispensable element in the high-quality development of the wine industry. From the industry's perspective, actively promoting the green and low-carbon development of the wine industry is the focus of the industry's efforts.2021 In April 2021, the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan" Development Guidance for China's Wine Industry pointed out that the wine industry should make a comprehensive transition to green ecological development, and for the first time, the "Zero-carbon Appellation" and "Zero-carbon Factory" will be developed. In April 2021, the Guiding Opinions on the Development of China's Wine Industry in the 14th Five-Year Plan pointed out that the wine industry should make a comprehensive transition to green ecological development, and for the first time set "zero-carbon production areas" and "zero-carbon factories" as the construction targets. 2022, the China Wine Association (CWA) completed the formulation of the industry standard for "green T factories" in respect of white spirits and beer, and in 2023, the CWA carried out a study on the GHG accounting methodology and reporting standards for white spirits enterprises. his paper takes Fenjiu Group's ESG practice action as the research object, through collecting and reviewing the annual reports, ESG reports, announcements on the official website of the company, media reports, ESG practice reports of related listed companies and other materials, and conducts a multi-faceted research and analysis based on the theory of strategic management of the enterprise, and puts forward the related sustainable development strategy by combining with the concept of ESG. Development strategy design based on ESG concept. Firstly, the SWOT tool is used to add the elements analyzed in the previous chapters as strategic elements to the analysis matrix of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats, and the actions based on ESG concepts optimize the sustainable development while shaping the core competitiveness of Fenjiu Group; then the strategic framework is clarified; finally, the strategic safeguards of Fenjiu Group are formulated. The innovation of the thesis lies in the introduction of ESG concept in the development strategy of wine enterprises, which enriches the theoretical connotation and strategic significance of ESG, innovates the strategic mode and governance mode of sustainable development of wine enterprises, broadens the value boundary of green development, and realizes the governance optimization of diversified development, and also provides a certain reference for the same type of wine enterprises to survive the risks of the industry cycle and realize long-term development.

A post-COVID syndrome curriculum for continuing medical education (CME): in-person versus livestream.

Nearly 30% of patients with COVID-19 infection develop post-COVID Syndrome. Knowledge of post-COVID Syndrome is evolving, creating the need for adaptable curricula. Flipped classrooms (FC) are flexible and dynamic with demonstrated utility in continuing medical education (CME), yet there has been no research on application of FCs, or comparisons between livestream and in-person learning, in post-COVID CME. We implemented a novel post-COVID curriculum using FCs for in-person and livestream participants at four Mayo Clinic CME conferences. Outcomes were validated measures of knowledge; perceptions of FCs and CME teacher effectiveness; and learner engagement. Pre-conferences surveys were a post-COVID knowledge test and the Flipped Classroom Perception Inventory (FCPI). Post-conference surveys were a post-COVID knowledge test, the FCPI, the CME Teaching Effectiveness Instrument (CMETE), and the Learner Engagement Inventory (LEI). Pre-post knowledge and FCPI scores were analyzed using linear mixed models. CMETE and LEI were compared for in-person versus livestream participants using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Overall, 59 participants completed the pre-test, and 72 participants completed the post-test, surveys. Participants were predominantly female (58%), were in nonacademic group practices (65%), and lacked prior experience with flipped classrooms (83%). Following the presentations, participants showed significant improvements in post-COVID knowledge (47% correct precourse to 54% correct postcourse, p-value = 0.004), and a trend toward improved FCPI scores. Teaching effectiveness, learner engagement, and pre-post change in COVID knowledge did not differ significantly between participants of in-person versus livestream sessions. This post-COVID FC curriculum was feasible and associated with improved knowledge scores among a diverse population of physician learners in CME, without any apparent compromise in learner engagement, or in perceptions of teaching effectiveness and FCs, among livestream versus in-person participants.
