Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate how multidisciplinary care models are applied in treating psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patients and to establish minimum and excellent standards of care.
- - A survey was conducted among clinicians involved in multidisciplinary care, assessing the types of care models used and the implementation of quality standards, with discussions held at regional meetings to prioritize these standards.
- - Results showed a wide variability in the implementation of quality standards across different areas, with 9 standards identified as minimum, 4 as excellent, and the remaining 12 having criteria for both levels, ultimately aiding in improving healthcare for PsA patients.
To define and give priority to standards of care and quality indicators of multidisciplinary care for patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA). A systematic literature review on PsA standards of care and quality indicators was performed. An expert panel of rheumatologists and dermatologists who provide multidisciplinary care was established.

Methods: A qualitative study was performed following structured interviews with 24 professionals (12 rheumatologists, 12 dermatologists who provide multidisciplinary care for patients with PsA). We collected data related to the hospital, department, population and multidisciplinary care model (type, physical and human resources, professional requirements, objectives, referral criteria, agendas, protocols, responsibilities, decision- making, research and education, clinical sessions, development and planning of the model, advantages and disadvantages of the model, barriers and facilitators in the implementation of the model.
Squamous cell lung cancer (SCC) and adenocarcinoma are the most common histological subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and have been traditionally managed in the clinic as a single entity. Increasing evidence, however, illustrates the biological diversity of these two histological subgroups of lung cancer, and supports the need to improve our understanding of the molecular basis beyond the different phenotypes if we aim to develop more specific and individualized targeted therapy. The purpose of this study was to identify microRNA (miRNA)-dependent transcriptional regulation differences between SCC and adenocarcinoma histological lung cancer subtypes.
