Understanding Potentially Preventable 7-day Readmission Rates in Hospital Medicine Patients at a Comprehensive Cancer Center.

This study aimed to describe the potentially preventable 7-day unplanned readmission (PPR) rate in medical oncology patients. A retrospective analysis of all unplanned 7-day readmissions within Hospital Medicine at MD Anderson Cancer Center from September 1, 2020 to February 28, 2021, was performed. Readmissions were independently analyzed by 2 randomly selected individuals to determine preventability.

Development and Use of a Cardiac Clinical Guideline Mobile App in Australia: Acceptability and Multi-Methods Study.

Background: Implementation of clinical guidelines into routine practice remains highly variable. Strategies to increase guideline uptake include developing digital tools and mobile apps for use in clinical practice. The National Heart Foundation of Australia in collaboration with the Cardiac Society of Australia and New Zealand published 3 key cardiac clinical guidelines, including the Australian clinical guidelines for the (1) prevention and detection of atrial fibrillation, (2) detection and management of heart failure, and (3) management of acute coronary syndromes.

How visual stimuli activate dopaminergic neurons at short latency.

Unexpected, biologically salient stimuli elicit a short-latency, phasic response in midbrain dopaminergic (DA) neurons. Although this signal is important for reinforcement learning, the information it conveys to forebrain target structures remains uncertain. One way to decode the phasic DA signal would be to determine the perceptual properties of sensory inputs to DA neurons.
