Impact of the CAPTURE COPD Screening Tool in US Primary Care: A Cluster Randomized Trial.

The impact of COPD screening on US primary care clinician behavior and patient outcomes is unclear. Assess the impact of receiving CAPTURE (COPD Assessment in Primary Care to Identify Undiagnosed Respiratory Disease and Exacerbation Risk) screening scores on clinical and patient outcomes. Cluster randomized trial included 49 usual care (COPD education only) and 51 intervention (COPD and CAPTURE education plus screening scores) primary care practices.

Theoretical and Experimental Analyses of the Interfacial Mechanism of Dendrimer-Doxorubicin Complexes Formation.

The work presents correlations between the physicochemical properties of the carrier and the active substance and optimization of the conditions for creating an active system based on PAMAM dendrimers and doxorubicin. The study monitored the influence of the ionized form of the doxorubicin molecule on the efficiency of complex formation. The deprotonated form of doxorubicin occurs under basic conditions in the pH range of 9.

Narrowing the diagnostic gap: Genomes, episignatures, long-read sequencing, and health economic analyses in an exome-negative intellectual disability cohort.

Purpose: Genome sequencing (GS)-specific diagnostic rates in prospective tightly ascertained exome sequencing (ES)-negative intellectual disability (ID) cohorts have not been reported extensively.

Methods: ES, GS, epigenetic signatures, and long-read sequencing diagnoses were assessed in 74 trios with at least moderate ID.

Results: The ES diagnostic yield was 42 of 74 (57%).
