Background Triage in the emergency department (ED) is a crucial procedure that establishes the urgency of patient care based on symptoms at presentation. Although the efficacy of triage nurse training programs varies, their goal is to increase the precision and efficiency of their decision-making. Aim With a focus on research done between 2019 and 2024, the systematic review attempts to evaluate the effect of training programs on the accuracy and efficiency of triage nurses in emergency departments. Method We conducted a thorough search of the PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science databases to find pertinent research. Studies assessing training treatments for triage nurses and reporting accuracy and efficiency-related results were included in the inclusion criteria. Both the quality assessment and data extraction were carried out separately by two reviewers. Result Ten studies that used a range of triage training techniques and covered a variety of geographic areas satisfied the inclusion criteria. Research findings consistently showed that, despite variations in study designs and outcome measures, training programs increased triage accuracy and efficiency. Interventions included clinical decision support system integration, training based on simulation, and conventional classroom-based instruction. Conclusion By increasing decision-making efficiency and accuracy in patient evaluation, training programs greatly improve the performance of triage nurses in emergency departments. To improve comparability and support evidence-based policies, future research must standardize training methodologies and outcome measurements.

A Review-Based Study on the Importance of Doctor-Patient Communication in Healthcare

Effective doctor-patient communication is crucial for delivering quality healthcare, as it directly influences patient satisfaction, treatment adherence, and the incidence of medical errors. This review critically analyzes secondary data from various studies, surveys, and meta-analyses to examine the impact of communication on health outcomes, particularly focusing on vulnerable populations such as those with language barriers and low health literacy. The findings reveal that effective communication enhances patient satisfaction, improves adherence to treatment plans, and reduces medical errors, while poor communication leads to adverse health outcomes, including non-compliance and misdiagnosis. Additionally, improving communication practices lowers malpractice claims and mitigates physician burnout. These insights emphasize the need for targeted interventions to overcome communication barriers and foster equitable healthcare delivery.

SIGNIFICANCE AND ROLE OF FOXO3 GENE IN HUMAN LONGEVITY AND VARIOUS DISEASES: A SHORT REPORT

The aim of this research-based review is to disseminate scientific knowledge about an important FOXO3 gene and its activation by phytochemicals. The fork head box O (FOXO) transcription factor is composed of helix DNA. FOXOs are involved in metabolism, cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, energy, oxidative stress, immunity, inflammation, and stem cell maintenance symptoms that occur because of age associated diseases. Its FOXOs family consists of foxo1, foxo3, foxo4 and foxo6, but all of them are different from each other, among which FOXO3 gene involved in human longevity. FOXO3 proteins manage those genes that are associated with growth factors. To increase health span FOXO3 proteins are engaged in many physiological and pathological conditions like cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, chronic neurological diseases, and tumor suppressants. Phytochemicals, including polyphenols, seem to have potential for upregulation of the function of FOXO 3. The literature for the described study was collected by various research engines like Google Scholar, PubMed, ResearchGate, etc. Our review-based study reveals that Phenols, Polyphenols and terpenoids were found to be effective regulators of the FOXO3 gene for human longevity. Keywords: FOXO3, Tumor suppressants, Polyphenols, Oxidative stress, DNA.

EHR documentation of cost discussions and financial interventions for a cohort of patients with advanced cancer: Findings from a retrospective chart review-based study.

e23150 Background: Financial Toxicity (FT), the adverse impact of high medical costs on quality of life, notably affects many oncology patients. In a prior initiative to improve quality of life for advanced cancer patients, a palliative care-trained nurse practitioner (PCNP) was embedded in an academic oncology practice. Patients completed the Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS) and Canadian Problem Checklist (CPC) to gauge physical symptoms, psychosocial issues, and financial concerns. However, the incidence of self-reported financial issues and electronic health record (EHR) documentation of cost discussions and interventions remain unclear for this patient group. Methods: The study included adult oncology patients with advanced cancer seen by the PCNP from January 1, 2020, to January 1, 2022. We assessed incidence of self-reported financial concerns via CPC checklists in this cohort. Ten charts underwent detailed manual review for evidence of cost discussions or referral to finance-related interventions for up to 1 year from the initial consult with the PCNP or until death. During the review, we identified keywords in documentation of cost discussions and finance-related interventions to create a keyword library. We iteratively compared the library to our reference standard manual chart review to ensure 100% sensitivity. We then employed this keyword library to evaluate the remaining charts. Descriptive statistics were employed to assess correlations between self-reported financial concerns, chart documentation of cost discussions or financial interventions, and patient demographics. Results: Out of 109 eligible patients, 71% (77) completed pre-visit questionnaires, with 30% (23) reporting financial issues. Of this group, 43% (10) died during the study period. Average follow-up was 5.0 months among the decedents. Among those reporting financial concerns, 65% (15) had documented cost discussions or financial assistance referrals in the EHR, involving physicians, social workers, and other clinic staff. Most interventions addressed medication costs and referrals to financial assistance as indicated. Patient demographics (age, sex, insurance type) showed no apparent association with chart documentation of cost discussions or financial assistance. Conclusions: We used retrospective chart review to evaluate the extent of documentation of cost discussions and finance-related intervention in a cohort of patients with advanced cancer. In our patient cohort, 30% self-reported financial concerns, a proportion consistent with previously reported incidence of FT among oncology patients. Notably, 35% of the patients with known financial concerns had no other relevant documentation in the EHR. More work is needed to establish best practices for systematic screening for FT and interventions to support patients.

A Review on Harnessing Renewable Energy Synergies for Achieving Urban Net-Zero Energy Buildings: Technologies, Performance Evaluation, Policies, Challenges, and Future Direction

As urbanization continues to accelerate globally, energy demand in cities is reaching unprecedented levels, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions. In response, the concept of net-zero energy building (NZEB) is becoming a sustainable solution for urban energy needs. NZEB aims to achieve a net-zero energy footprint by balancing the energy it consumes with the energy it produces, primarily from renewable energy (RE) sources. This comprehensive literature review-based study explores the role of RE synergies in the context of urban NZEBs, including discussions on definition and development of NZEBs, RE-synergies for achieving NZEBs, sustainable trends and clusters of NZEBs, climate change impacts on NZEBs, their performance evaluation, policy and regulatory frameworks, and challenges and possible solutions related to NZEBs. It has been identified that while customizing NZEB definitions to align with regional energy supply and demand is important, the same is highly dependent on building architectural and micro-climate features. The assessment of climate change effects and NZEB practices should involve evaluating building energy equilibrium, occupant comfort, and interactions with the energy grid. There are still some technical, policy, and socio-economic challenges that need more attention to provide comprehensive solutions for further enhancing the sustainable development/performance of NZEBs and achieving their goal.

A cutting tool architecture designed to address the parasitic mechanisms consuming excess power during machining and manufacturing operations-A review-based study towards sustainable manufacturing.

Metal cutting has been extensively studied over the years for improving its efficacy, yet, parasitic mechanisms like chatter and tool wear continue to generate higher forces and energy consumption with poor surface integrity. To address these parasitic mechanisms, a single-point turning cutter design is proposed based on the physics-of-machining including chatter theory to achieve reduced power consumption during the cutting of various metallic alloys like Al-6061, Ti-6Al-4V and others used by critical sectors such as aerospace and automotive. The current work focuses on aspects of machining that effectively reduce parasitic forces feeding into cutting power. The proposed cutter amalgamates features such as optimum side and end cutting edge angles, smaller nose radius and textured rake face into the cutter-body. Such a design is further proposed for use with a mechanochemical effect on a recently discovered plastic flow mode called sinuous flow, which has been reported to bring down cutting forces significantly. Experimental and analytical tests on the cutter design features validate reduction of cutting forces and through that alleviate the tendency to chatter as well as bring about energy savings for cutting of Al 6061. The potential for reduced real-time power consumption makes this design-framework significant for multipoint milling cutters too. It will greatly facilitate frugal manufacturing to account for sustainability in manufacturing operations.

Cost Analysis of Thromboprophylaxis in Patients at High Thromboembolic Risk with Enoxaparin, Dalteparin and Nadroparin in Colombia: A Systematic Literature Review-Based Study.

To analyze the costs of high thromboembolic risk patients who require low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs) as a thromboprophylaxis strategy. Cost analysis was conducted to assess LMWHs (enoxaparin versus comparators: nadroparin and dalteparin) as thromboprophylaxis for hospitalized patients with high thromboembolic risk in Oncology, General or Orthopedic Surgery, and Internal Medicine services from the healthcare provider's perspective in Colombia. A decision tree was developed, and the health outcomes considered in the analysis were deep vein thrombosis, major bleeding, pulmonary thromboembolism, and chronic pulmonary hypertension. Clinical inputs were obtained from a systematic review of the literature and the economic parameters from micro-costing. Inputs were validated by three clinical experts. Costs were expressed in 2020 US dollars (USD). In a hypothetical cohort of 10,000 patients with a thromboprophylaxis use rate of 40%, the use of enoxaparin was less costly than that of dalteparin in Oncology (difference of USD 624,669), Orthopedic Surgery (difference of USD 275,829), and Internal Medicine (difference of USD 109,119) patients. For these services, using enoxaparin was more efficient than using nadroparin (cost differences of USD 654,069, USD 416,927, and USD 92,070, respectively). Sensitivity analysis showed an important influence of the number of patients undergoing thromboprophylaxis, as well as the unit cost, and the risk of events (DVT, PTE, and CTEPH). Enoxaparin is the least expensive health technology for thromboprophylaxis in most of the medical contexts analyzed in Colombia due to its efficacy and the lower risk of complications than dalteparin and nadroparin.

This review-based study explores the screening methods, tests, and toxicity to provide a unique way of creating a multi-parametric feature that includes cutting-edge techniques for identifying cardiovascular problems and their treatments. We discussed the benefits and drawbacks of various NPs in the context of cost, space, time and complexity that have been previously suggested in the literature for the diagnosis of CVDs risk factors. Also, we highlighted the advances in using NPs for targeted and improved drug delivery and discussed the evolution toward the nano-cardiovascular potential for medical science. Finally, we also examined the mixed-based diagnostic approaches crucial for treating cardiovascular disorders, broad applications and the potential future applications of nanotechnology in medical sciences.

Efficacy of cryoneurolysis versus intra-articular steroid in sacroiliac joint pain: A retrospective, case-control study.

Intra-articular steroids provide significant pain relief in sacroiliac joint pain (SIJP), but their action is short-lived. Cryoneurolysis is reported to produce prolonged pain relief in various pain conditions. However, its efficacy has not been evaluated in patients with SIJP. Thus, we compared the efficacy of cryoneurolysis with steroid injections in adult patients with SIJP. This retrospective healthcare records review-based study involved 83 patients with SIJP. Patients were divided into two groups: cases (sacroiliac joint [SIJ] cryoneurolysis, n = 39) and controls (SIJ steroid injection, n = 44). An 11-point numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) was used to assess the pain severity at baseline and immediately, 1, 3 and 6 months post-intervention. A reduction of ≥50% in NPRS score immediately following SIJ cryoneurolysis and steroid injection was considered a successful outcome. The difference between the treatment groups was assessed with a Chi-square test, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Both cases and controls showed significantly decreased NPRS scores from baseline to immediately, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months postintervention (P < 0.001). However, compared to controls, cases had significantly lower NPRS scores at all time points (all P < 0.001). Moreover, a significantly greater proportion of cases had ≥50% decrease in NPRS score from baseline, that is, 1 month (97.44% vs. 75%, P = 0.004), 3 months (100% vs. 47.73%, P < 0.001) and 6 months (69.23% vs. 27.27%, P < 0.001). Although both cryoneurolysis and intra-articular steroid injections provide significant pain relief immediately, 1, 3 and 6 months postintervention, cryoneurolysis resulted in significantly greater pain relief.

Mantodea of Iran: A review-based study

Scattered taxonomic data can be used to determine the geographic distribution of arthropods such as Mantodea (mantids). The distribution of mantids is not well known in Iran and not readily determined because the literature has been published in a mix of Persian-language and non-Persian-language scientific references, including books, journals, annual congress proceedings, and final reports of academic projects. To create a national checklist of mantids in Iran, I reviewed 35 Persian and non-Persian (English, German, and Italian) publications. I recorded 57 praying mantid species from 9 families described from localities across Iran. I identified 18 species—Ameles decolor, Ameles heldreichi, Ameles picteti, Ameles spallanzania, Elaea marchali, Empusa pennata, Eremiaphila andresi, Eremiaphila cerisy, Eremiaphila turcica, Geomantis larvoides, Iris coeca, Iris pitcheri, Oxyothespis wagneri, Pareuthyphlebs palmonii, Pseudoyersinia paui, Rivetina baetica, Severinia nigrofasciata, and Severinia turcomaniae—with records in Iran that may be incorrect based on geographic ranges that do not include Iran and similarity to other species that do occur in Iran. In the proposed checklist comprising 39 species, the family Rivetinidae, with 9 species, and the 2 families Amorphoscelidae and Nanomantidae, with 1 species each, comprised the greatest and least diversity, respectively. This checklist can facilitate future studies on Iran’s mantodeans.

Benefits of Investing on Mother and Child Healthcare in Tanzania

Purpose: Maternal and child healthcare play crucial role in reducing global mortality rates, with a significant impact on the overall burden of disease. The Sustainable Development Goal 3 aims to reduce the global maternal mortality ratio to less than 70 per 100,000 live births, end preventable deaths of newborns and children under 5 years of age, with all countries aiming to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1,000 live births and under-5 mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1,000 live births by 2030. Sub-Saharan Africa, including Tanzania, carries a high burden of mortality rates and experiences a significant share of maternal and child deaths, exacerbating the global figures. The average prevalence of below 5 years mortality in SSA between 2010 and 2018 was 4.10% according to Ahinkorah (2021). Recognizing the severity of this issue, the government of Tanzania through the Development Agenda 2025, Draft health policy 2020 and the current Health Sector strategic plan 2021-2026 plans to reduce infant and maternal mortality rates through mother and child healthcare investment. The Health Sector Strategic Plan focuses on strengthening the health systems in the country and aims to sustain the achievements made in enhancing the health of reproductive, maternal, newborn, children, and adolescent populations. This study sought to assess the benefits of investing on mother and child healthcare in Tanzania. The study was guided by the investment commodity theory developed by the economist John Maynard Keynes in 1936. The study evaluated the current status of mother and child health indicators, the benefits of investing in mother and child health on overall health outcomes and identified the existing gaps and challenges in the provision, access and utilization of mother and child healthcare services in Tanzania.&#x0D; Methodology: The study was a desktop review-based study which relied on existing published information, data, and literature.&#x0D; Findings: The study found out that there have been improvements in certain areas of mother and child health indicators but maternal and child mortality rates remain high. Health interventions such as vaccination programs, improved access to healthcare services, and the use of maternal and child health insurance cards showed positive effects on reducing child mortality, improving child health outcomes, and enhancing maternal healthcare utilization. The significant gaps and challenges in the provision, access, and utilization of mother and child healthcare services include disparities in access to healthcare services based on factors such as education level and wealth status, inadequate healthcare infrastructure, long distances to health facilities, sociocultural barriers, and financial constraints.&#x0D; Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The study recommends strengthening of healthcare infrastructure, enhancing access to maternal and child healthcare services, especially for vulnerable populations, promoting health education and raising awareness about maternal and child healthcare practices, addressing the shortage of skilled healthcare professionals, improving data collection and use and monitoring of maternal and child health indicators, addressing socio-cultural barriers that hinder access and utilization of healthcare services and increasing investment in mother and child health care programs through allocate adequate resources.

Characteristics and outcomes of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC) detected with CT screening at a single health system.

8581 Background: At diagnosis, the majority of SCLC patients have extensive-stage disease, and their median survival is only 13 months, even with the addition of checkpoint inhibitors. Previous CT screening trials did not reveal reduction in mortality for SCLC patients. The aim of our study was to analyze the baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes of SCLC patients diagnosed with low-dose CT scan as a part of lung cancer screening program. Methods: A retrospective chart review-based study of SCLC patients diagnosed clinically or by lung cancer screening between January 2018 and June 2022 at the Henry Ford Health System was conducted. Baseline characteristics, details of SCLC diagnosis and treatment, and outcome were recorded. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-squared test, T-test and log-rank test. Results: Of the 258 patients who met eligibility criteria, 34 were diagnosed by lung cancer screening. Patients diagnosed with screening tended to be older (mean age- 70.5 years vs. 67.3 years, p=0.010). There were no differences in gender distribution, race and smoking status. Mean smoking history was 43 pack-years in both groups. Among screen-detected patients, 73.5% had limited-stage disease compared to 36.6% among clinically detected patients (p&lt;0.001). No significant difference in the presence of brain metastases at diagnosis was observed. Among screen-detected patients, 97.1% received any therapy compared to 85.3% among the clinically detected patients (p=0.105). Overall survival (OS) was significantly better in screen-detected patients, with a 3-year survival rate of 45.5% vs. 17% (p=0.00027). By multivariable analysis, OS was better in screen-detected patients (HR=0.37, 95% CI 0.20-0.68; p=0.001) (Table). There was no significant difference in progression-free survival between the groups. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that SCLC patients diagnosed through the lung cancer screening program have better overall survival rates than those diagnosed clinically. These results suggest that developing appropriate screening measures may impact SCLC-related mortality. [Table: see text]

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy and perceptions on lifestyle interventions: A review.

Musculoskeletal pain treatments are widespread in the clinical practice of physiotherapists. A multifaceted biopsychosocial approach should guide modern pain therapy. The study aimed to investigate the association of musculoskeletal problems with lifestyle behaviors. The study adopted a qualitative literature review methodology. About 200 papers have been reviewed for this study. The categories of the study had been classified according to the factors that are interconnected to the life intervention. The inclusion criteria of the selected literature depend upon the data received. This is a review-based study. The results of cross-sectional and correlational analysis dominated the literature on lifestyle implications on musculoskeletal health, which included pain and its correlated inflammation. Long-term prospective studies, however, are difficult to enroll in due to ethical concerns about denying patients' therapies shown to benefit them, notably lifestyle behavior modification. By conducting intervention studies, it determines lifestyle modifications that determine the beneficial aspects. These aspects are avoiding and reducing pain by increasing exercise capacity. The study concluded that the quantity of beneficial health practices boosted the health-related quality of life. To achieve long-term health, the complexity of the behaviour change needs to be supported by the individual's lifestyle pattern and the support of the data. Therefore, in this century characterized by chronic lifestyle-related illnesses, various health behavior modifications may be claimed to be a primary therapeutic skill of health professionals (individually and collectively).
