Time Below Range and Its Influence on Hypoglycemia Awareness and Severe Hypoglycemia: Insights From the Association of British Clinical Diabetologists Study.

Objective: This study aimed to explore the relationship between time below range (TBR), impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH), and severe hypoglycemia (SH).

Research Design And Methods: This cross-sectional study analyzed data from individuals with diabetes using continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) in the Association of British Clinical Diabetologists audit. Hypoglycemia awareness was assessed via the Gold score (≥4 denoting IAH), and SH was defined as hypoglycemia requiring third-party assistance.

Suprathel Versus Hypafix in the Management of Split-Thickness Donor Site Wounds in the Elderly: A Randomised Controlled Trial.

(1) Background: Effective wound management aims for expedited healing, improved functional and scar outcomes, and reduced complications including infection. Delayed wound healing remains a prevalent problem in the elderly. Suprathel is a synthetic absorbable skin substitute and an attractive option in partial thickness wounds.

The Systematic Multi-domain Alzheimer's Risk Reduction Trial (SMARRT) intervention: A personalized approach to dementia risk reduction.

Background: Addressing modifiable risk factors such as physical inactivity and social isolation could reduce risk of Alzheimer's disease and all-cause dementia, but little is known about which factors individuals are most willing to address or how they prefer to address them.

Objective: To examine and describe behavior change goals set by participants during the Systematic Multi-domain Alzheimer's Risk Reduction Trial (SMARRT).

Methods: In SMARRT, older adults worked with a health coach and nurse over 2 years to set incremental, personalized goals to reduce dementia risk.

What they did next: Using follow-up phone calls to investigate health care access patterns of patients who take their own leave.

Objectives: The purpose of the present study was to use telephone follow-up (TFU) to investigate the actions taken by patients after they took their own leave (TOL) from an ED, with a focus on priority groups who are at risk of experiencing health inequity. These included people experiencing homelessness (EH), people with a low socioeconomic status by index of relative socioeconomic disadvantage (IRSD) and First Nations people. The primary outcome was being seen by a general practitioner (GP) within 2 days of the TOL event.
