The Columbia Academy for Psychoanalytic Educators: A Pilot Program for Developing Analysts and Supervisors of Analytic Candidates.

The Columbia Academy for Psychoanalytic Educators supports graduate analysts' professional development at the Columbia University Center for Psychoanalytic Training and Research. In 2018, a pilot program was launched for faculty interested in analyzing and supervising candidates, whose aim is to support and educate those interested in taking on these essential training functions. The focus is on educating the educators, which is a significant departure from the historical focus on evaluation, vetting, and faculty hierarchies.

A Systematic Literature Review on Healthcare Facility Evaluation Methods.

To present a systematic literature review on predesign evaluation (PDE), postoccupancy evaluation (POE), and evidence-based design (EBD); to delimit the concepts and relationships of these terms and place them in the building life cycle framework to guide their application and indicate a common understanding and possible gaps. The preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses protocol was used. Inclusion criteria cover texts that present a concept, method, procedure, or tool and use the example in healthcare services or other environments.

Development and Initial Use of an Evidence-Based Home Blood Pressure Monitoring mHealth Platform.

Home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) has been shown to provide a more reliable assessment of blood pressure (BP) than in-office measurement and may lead to improved BP control. While many mHealth apps are available to help users track their blood pressure (BP), no apps incorporate the full set of evidence-based HBPM recommendations for ensuring accurate measurement at home. Through an agile development approach employing user stories, we translated an evidence-based standardized protocol for BP measurement and monitoring over a recommended 3-7 day monitoring period into a mHealth app and corresponding clinician portal.

Privacy and housing: research perspectives based on a systematic literature review.

Grounded in psychological and social constructs, the need for privacy is reflected in human socio-spatial behaviour and in our own home. To discuss housing privacy, this article presents a systematic literature review (SLR) that identified theoretical and methodological aspects relevant to the topic. The research was based on consolidated protocols to identify, select and evaluate articles published between 2000 and 2021 in three databases (Web of Science, Google Scholar and Scielo), with 71 eligible articles identified for synthesis.

Translating CKD Research into Primary Care Practice: a Group-Randomized Study.

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common in the primary care setting. Early interventions may prevent progression of renal disease and reduce risk for cardiovascular complications, yet quality gaps have been documented. Successful approaches to improve identification and management of CKD in primary care are needed.
