A systematic review of stereotactic radiosurgery for metastatic spinal sarcomas.

Purpose: Sarcomas metastasizing to the spine are a rare entity. Ideally an En-bloc resection is necessary to achieve durable local control (LC) rates. However, anatomical constraints often limit the degree of tumor resection.

A survey of practicum training practices in clinical neuropsychology.

: While previous survey research has focused on various training constituencies such as trainees, and postdoctoral/internship supervisors, no previous survey research has examined the needs and perspectives of practicum level supervisors and training programs. This study was designed to address this limitation. These results were used in forming the North American Association of Practicum Sites in Neuropsychology (NAPSN).

Using Formal Knowledge to Support Episodic Evidence-Based Nursing Care.

Applying evidence-based medicine prevents medical errors highlighting the need for applying Clinical Guidelines (CGs) to improve patient care by nurses. However, nurses often face challenges in utilizing CGs due to patient-specific needs. Developing a Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) can provide real-time context-sensitive CG-based recommendations.
