Effect of a colorectal bundle in an entire health care region in Switzerland: Results from a prospective cohort study (EvaCol study).

Introduction: Standardisation has the potential to serve as a measure to mitigate complication rates. The objective was to assess the impact of standardisation by implementing a colorectal bundle (CB), which comprises nine elements, on the complication rates in left-sided colorectal resections.

Patients And Methods: This prospective, multicentre, observational, cohort trial was conducted in Switzerland at nine participating hospitals.

Nudging towards Sleep-Friendly Health Care: A Multifaceted Approach on Reducing Unnecessary Overnight Interventions.

Background:  Choice architecture refers to the design of decision environments, which can influence decision-making in health care. Nudges are subtle adjustments in these environments that guide decisions toward desired outcomes. For example, computerized provider order entry within electronic health records (EHRs) recommends frequencies for interventions such as nursing assessments and medication administrations, but these can link to around-the-clock schedules without clinical necessity.

The impact of marriage equality campaigns on stress: Did a Swiss public vote get under the skin?

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, and queer (LGBTIQ+) individuals encounter persistent structural inequalities and discrimination that can lead to detrimental psychological and physiological health outcomes. Amid evolving legal landscapes, little attention has been directed toward understanding the physiological health effects of societal shifts on these communities. This study aims to explore the impact of a national marriage equality vote and associated debates on psychological and biological stress among LGBTIQ+ individuals and cisgender, heterosexual, endosex individuals (termed cis-heterosexual) in Switzerland.

Biological and environmental covariates of juvenile sockeye salmon distribution and abundance in the southeastern Bering Sea, 2002-2018.

Climate change is altering the distribution and abundance of marine species, especially in Arctic and sub-Arctic regions. In the eastern Bering Sea, home of the world's largest run of sockeye salmon (), juvenile sockeye salmon abundance has increased and their migration path shifted north with warming, 2002-2018. The reasons for these changes are poorly understood.
