"The doctors were more knowledgeable about what I had": patient views on the value of point-of-care tests for managing respiratory infections in European primary care.

Background: Point-of-care tests (POCT) can support diagnosis of patients with community acquired acute respiratory tract infections (CA-RTI) in primary care and thereby reduce uncertainty whether antibiotics may benefit patients. However, successful roll out of POCTs need to be built on a deep understanding of patients' perspectives on the place of POCTs in patient centred care.

Aim: To explore patients' perceptions of the value of POCTs during consultations for CA-RTI.

Mid-term Results of 1-stage Revision Total Knee Arthroplasty for Periprosthetic Joint Infection With a Sinus Tract.

Background: Patients presenting with a sinus tract over total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are challenging cases of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI). A 2-stage revision TKA has long been considered the gold standard for the management of PJI. At our institution, approximately 85% of patients with PJI, including patients with a sinus tract, undergo 1-stage revision TKA.

Catalyzing Singlet Fission by Transition Metals: Second versus Third Row Effects.

The synthesis and characterization of platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes bearing two (dimers Pt(L)Cl and Pd(L)Cl), one (monomers Pt(L)(L)Cl and Pd(L)(L)Cl), or no (reference compounds Pt(L)Cl and Pd(L)Cl) pentacene-based pyridyl ligands are presented. Photophysical properties of the dimers are probed by means of steady-state and time-resolved transient absorption measurements in comparison to the monomer and model compounds. Our results document that despite enhanced spin-orbit coupling from the presence of heavy atoms, intramolecular singlet fission (iSF) is not challenged by intersystem crossing.

The role of qualification and quality management in the prescription of antipsychotics and potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) in nursing home residents in Germany: results of the HIOPP-3-iTBX study.

Background: Nursing home residents (NHR) show high rates of polypharmacy. The HIOPP-3-iTBX study is the first cRCT on medication optimization in nursing homes (NH) in Germany. The intervention did not result in a reduction of PIM and/or antipsychotics.

Traumatic Life Events and Association With Depression, Anxiety, and Somatization Symptoms in Female Refugees.

Importance: Different types of traumatic life events have varying impacts on symptoms of depression, anxiety, and somatization. For women from areas of the world experiencing war and humanitarian crises, who have experienced cumulative trauma exposure during war and forced migration, it is not known whether cumulative trauma or particular events have the greatest impact on symptoms.

Objective: To examine which traumatic life events are associated with depression, anxiety, and somatization symptoms, compared with the cumulative amount, in a sample of female refugees.
