Article Synopsis
- When GM-APDs are used in space, they can get damaged by radiation, which makes them count more false signals (dark counts).
- Scientists found that heating them up (thermal annealing) can help fix some of the damage, and they did this using built-in coolers on the devices.
- They discovered that heating them up in short 10-minute bursts was really effective and that this method did much better than just room temperature annealing.

Background: The field of healthcare epidemiology is increasingly focused on identifying, characterizing, and addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) to address inequities in healthcare quality. To identify evidence gaps, we examined recent systematic reviews examining the association of race, ethnicity, and SDOH with inpatient quality measures.
Methods: We searched Medline via OVID for English language systematic reviews from 2010 to 2022 addressing race, ethnicity, or SDOH domains and inpatient quality measures in adults using specific topic questions.
