Stress, Anxiety and Coping in Adults With Down Syndrome: An Exploratory Co-Research Study.

Background: At least half of children and adults with Down syndrome have a major mental health concern during their life but few studies ask people with Down syndrome directly about their experience. We used a co-research model to explore anxiety, stress, and coping in adults with Down syndrome.

Methods: Our group of researchers and adults with Down syndrome conducted an online survey on mental health for adults with Down syndrome.

Individualized throughput metric reports for emergency medicine residents: Impact on time to disposition and resident perceptions.

Background: Research suggests that quantitative metric reports can improve the clinical performance of emergency physicians; however, few studies have examined their effects on physicians in training. The primary study objective was to assess the effects of providing emergency medicine (EM) residents with individualized throughput metrics with regard to emergency department (ED) disposition times.

Methods: We performed a single-center, retrospective, observational study from January 2021 to December 2022 examining ED disposition times before and after providing upper-level EM residents individualized throughput metrics.
