Slovenia's national HIV PrEP programme: Evaluation of real-world implementation.

Background: The aim of our study was to evaluate real-world implementation of Slovenia's national HIV PrEP programme, which is fully covered by our national health insurance.

Methods: In retrospective cohort study we analysed the data from all men who have sex with men (MSM) who were enrolled in PrEP programme of our clinic between 1 January 2022 and 31 December 2022.

Results: A total of 190 MSM with an average age of 36.

Systemic Antimicrobial Treatment of Chronic Osteomyelitis in Adults: A Narrative Review.

Chronic osteomyelitis in adults is a complex condition that requires prolonged and intensive antimicrobial therapy, but evidence on optimal selection and duration of antibiotics is limited. A review of PubMed and Ovid Embase databases was conducted to identify systematic reviews, meta-analyses, retrospective and randomised controlled trials (RCTs) on antibiotic treatment outcomes in adults with chronic osteomyelitis. Three main areas of interest were investigated: short-term versus long-term antibiotic therapy, oral versus parenteral antibiotic therapy, and combination antibiotic therapy with rifampicin versus without rifampicin.

On a stochastic order induced by an extension of Panjer's family of discrete distributions.

We factorize probability mass functions of discrete distributions belonging to Panjer's family and to its certain extensions to define a stochastic order on the space of distributions supported on . Main properties of this order are presented. Comparison of some well-known distributions with respect to this order allows to generate new families of distributions that satisfy various recurrrence relations.

Life expectancy improvement for multiple cure distributions.

In many circumstances, the increase in life expectancy when certain causes of death are eliminated is sought. These calculations are typically based on the assumption that the causes in question are simply omitted, which is equivalent to the causes being taken out of consideration, from the outset, with certainty. In this paper, we propose models whereby probability distributions for the cures of specific causes of death over time can be incorporated so as to more accurately predict the increase in life expectancy that would ensue.

Epidemiology of Foot Injuries Using National Collegiate Athletic Association Data From the 2009-2010 Through 2014-2015 Seasons.

Context: Researchers analyzing data from the National Collegiate Athletic Association Injury Surveillance Program have not considered the differences in foot injuries across specific sports and between males and females.

Objective: To describe the epidemiologic differences in rates of overall foot injuries and common injuries among sports and between sexes.

Design: Descriptive epidemiology study.

Incidence and Severity of Foot and Ankle Injuries in Men's Collegiate American Football.

Background: American football is an extremely physical game with a much higher risk of injury than other sports. While many studies have reported the rate of injury for particular body regions or for individual injuries, very little information exists that compares the incidence or severity of particular injuries within a body region. Such information is critical for prioritizing preventative interventions.

Views on unsafe nursing students in clinical learning.

Clinical education is a cornerstone of undergraduate nursing education programs. Although protecting patient safety in clinical learning experiences is a standard of practice, no standard definition of the "unsafe" student exists. The purpose of this study was to describe the viewpoints of undergraduate student nurses and their clinical educators about unsafe clinical student practices.
