Novel Post-Neurointensive Care Recovery Clinic: Design, Utilization, and Clinician Perspectives.

Background And Objectives: Despite increasing interest in post-intensive care unit (ICU) clinical care and management, there have been limited descriptions focused on the post-neurologic (neuro)-ICU population. Here, we describe the design of a post-neuro-ICU Neurorecovery Clinic (NRC) and present data collected regarding the clinic's population, referrals, visits, and clinician satisfaction.

Methods: This is a single-institution experience with a NRC designed to provide an infrastructure for post-ICU care to patients recovering from acute neurologic disorders or systemic conditions with neurologic sequelae.

Discharge disposition for home health care patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia: The role of living arrangements and rural living.

Purpose: To examine the relationship between living arrangements and discharge disposition, and how this relationship differs by the rural or urban characteristics of the patient's residence among home health care patients with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (ADRD).

Methods: This retrospective study used the 2019 Outcome and Assessment Information Set and the Master Beneficiary Summary File. Our study was based on 531,269 Medicare fee-for-service patients with ADRD.

Perceptions and experiences of trainers and trainees of UK workplace-based assessment for general practice licensing: a mixed methods survey.

Background: Workplace-Based Assessment (WPBA) forms a major component of the UK General Practitioner (GP) licensing, together with knowledge and clinical skills examination. WPBA includes Case-based Discussion, Consultation Observation Tool, Mini-Consultation Exercise, Multisource Feedback, Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire, Clinical Examination and Procedural Skills, Clinical Supervisor's Report, and Educational Supervisor Review. We aimed to investigate GP trainees' and trainers' perceptions and experiences of WPBA regarding validity and fairness.

The Role of Neighborhood Socioeconomic Status in Institutionalization of Home Health Care Patients With and Without Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias.

Objectives: To assess whether neighborhood socioeconomic status (SES) moderates the association between Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) and successful discharge to the community. In addition, to explore whether the role of neighborhood SES on successful discharge for patients with ADRD varies by the severity of ADRD.

Design: This is a retrospective cohort study.

Something in the water: aquatic microbial communities influence the larval amphibian gut microbiota, neurodevelopment and behaviour.

Microorganisms colonize the gastrointestinal tract of animals and establish symbiotic host-associated microbial communities that influence vertebrate physiology. More specifically, these gut microbial communities influence neurodevelopment through the microbiota-gut-brain (MGB) axis. We tested the hypothesis that larval amphibian neurodevelopment is affected by the aquatic microbial community present in their housing water.
