Introduction: The electronic health record (EHR) has greatly expanded healthcare communication between patients and health workers. However, the volume and complexity of EHR messages have increased health workers' cognitive load, impeding effective care delivery and contributing to burnout.
Methods: To understand these potential detriments resulting from EHR communication, we analyzed EHR messages sent between patients and health workers at Emory Healthcare, a large academic healthcare system in Atlanta, Georgia.
Introduction: Asthma has been classified as a major non-communicable disease by the WHO. With the worsening air quality index worldwide, the burden of asthma has increased specifically in children. The focus of the management strategy of asthma has shifted from traditional pharmacological treatments towards non-pharmacological preventive and control therapy in recent decades.

Effective pharmacological treatments for NASH and liver fibrosis are limited.
Objective: This study systematically reviews and meta-analyzes the safety and efficacy of resmetirom, a selective thyroid hormone receptor-β agonist, in NASH and liver fibrosis treatment.
This dataset integrates and helps examine the impact of green intellectual capital (GIC) which comprises of green human capital (GHC), green structural capital (GSC), and green relational capital (GRC) on green organizational culture (GOC). Secondly, it enables the investigation of GOC as a mediation phenomenon between GIC and sustainable business model innovation (SBMI). Moreover, it highlights the moderation of frugal innovation (FGL) on GOC and SBMI relationship.

It draws attention to the possible health risks-acute and chronic poisoning, cancer, unfavorable effects on reproduction, and harm to the brain or immunological systems-that come with pesticide exposure. Numerous traditional and cutting-edge methods, such as washing, blanching, peeling, thermal treatments, alkaline electrolyzed water washing, cold plasma, ultrasonic cleaning, ozone treatment, and enzymatic treatment, have been proposed to reduce pesticide residues in food products.

Objective: This review aims to synthesize current evidence on the prevalence, impact, and management of comorbidities in patients with chronic HF.
Tenofovir (TFV) is an antiviral drug used to treat the co-infections of HIV/HBV viruses. Accurate monitoring of TFV drug levels is essential for evaluating patient adherence, optimizing dosage, and assessing treatment efficacy. Herein, we propose an innovative electrochemical sensing approach by using the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme with the support of BaTiO nanoparticles.

Research suggests that roughly 30% of individuals with a presumed GERD diagnosis may continue to experience symptoms, whether partially or completely, even when receiving PPI therapy. The aim of this study was to assess the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases with a novel potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB), vonoprazan, in terms of its effectiveness and safety in the Pakistani population.

The basic pathophysiology of coronary artery disease (CAD) is a reduction of the blood flow in coronary vessels, leading to restricted blood flow to the heart muscle. Both modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors contribute to its multifactorial etiology.

Therefore, the aim of present research rests in the use of cost effective, easily available and eco-friendly reformed novel biosorbents of Dodonaea Viscosa (DV). For this purpose AC-alginate beads were synthesized successfully through clogging AC derived from Dodonaea Viscosa (ACAB) into beads of calcium-alginate for removal of methylene blue (MB) from diluted solution.

Employing the Autoregressive Distributed Lag model, this study finds a significant co-integration relationship among targeted variables. Moreover, this study provides empirical evidence on the influence of given macroeconomic factors in determining crude oil imports of Germany.

In the present state of affairs, electrochemical manufacturing of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals is not as common place as it could be and therefore, merits more attention. There is also a need to turn attention toward the electrochemical synthesis of valuable chemicals from recyclable greenhouse gases that can accelerate the process of circular economy.

The model has been applied to an acid gas such as carbon dioxide (CO) for its permeation through polyetherimide incorporated montmorillonite (Mt) nanoparticles hollow fiber asymmetric composite membranes. The well-established non-equilibrium lattice fluid (NELF) model for penetrating low molecular weight penetrant in a glassy polyetherimide (PEI) was extended to incorporate the other important polymer/filler system features such as tortuosity in acid gas diffusion pathways resulted from layered filler aspect ratio and concentration.
