Evaluating One-Week Post-Casting Alignment Checks and Surgical Intervention Rates in Pediatric Type IIA Supracondylar Humeral Fractures.

Background: This study aims to determine the rate of surgical intervention in children with type IIA supracondylar humerus fractures (SCHF) following routine post-casting radiographic assessment. We hypothesized that no cases would convert to operative management following one-week post-casting alignment assessments.

Methods: This single-center retrospective study focused on pediatric patients diagnosed with type IIA SCHF from 2019 to 2022.

Predicting Elevated Postvoid Residual Urine Volume Following OnabotulinumtoxinA Treatment for Overactive Bladder: A Pilot Study.

Objectives: To evaluate possible predictors of elevated postvoid residual volume (PVR) following onabotulinumtoxinA administration in patients with idiopathic overactive bladder (OAB), a condition that may include urinary urgency, frequency, and nocturia, without any identifiable cause or underlying neurological or metabolic condition.

Methods: Adults who had been treated with 100-200 U onabotulinumtoxinA for OAB and had previous failure of other OAB treatments were identified by retrospective review of medical chart data from three urology clinics in the United States treating patients with a variety of urological conditions. A total of 211 patients were allocated to cohorts based on posttreatment PVR < 200 mL (n = 173) and ≥ 200 mL (n = 38).

A Multicenter Prospective Sham-controlled Trial Evaluating a Physiologic Closed-loop Wearable Tibial Neuromodulation System for Overactive Bladder.

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of a home-based, physiologic closed-loop wearable tibial neuromodulation system in comparison to a sham control for the treatment of overactive bladder (OAB).

Methods: This multicenter, prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial included 125 adult subjects with OAB who were randomized 1:1 to receive either active therapy with the Vivally System or sham therapy. Patients were allowed to continue concomitant OAB medications if therapy was stable and the remained on a consistent regimen throughout the study.

Prioritizing Faculty Well-Being: Why it Matters, What Schools Can Do, and a Call for Action.

Previous studies have identified high rates of burnout among health care workers and health professions faculty. Despite interventions being showcased at national meetings in both posters and platform presentations, there is minimal peer-reviewed published research focusing on professional well-being interventions and their assessments specific to pharmacy faculty. This commentary serves as a call to action to design and publish research related to work-system interventions to decrease burnout and promote professional well-being among all academic pharmacy faculty, and particularly subgroups who may be most at risk, such as women and assistant-level faculty.
