Characterising illness stages and recovery trajectories of eating disorders in young people via remote measurement technology (STORY): a multi-centre prospective cohort study protocol.

Background: Eating disorders (EDs) are serious, often chronic, conditions associated with pronounced morbidity, mortality, and dysfunction increasingly affecting young people worldwide. Illness progression, stages and recovery trajectories of EDs are still poorly characterised. The STORY study dynamically and longitudinally assesses young people with different EDs (restricting; bingeing/bulimic presentations) and illness durations (earlier; later stages) compared to healthy controls.

Lost in relocation: longitudinal surveys evaluating the effectiveness of ICU to ward handover after the introduction of an electronic patient record.

Background: Poor communication and lack of standardized handover practices contribute to adverse events. Intensive care organizations recommend standardized, structured written and verbal handover.

Objectives: Investigate the effectiveness of, and barriers to, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) patient handover at ward transfer.

Serum Levels of α-Klotho Are Correlated with Cerebrospinal Fluid Levels and Predict Measures of Cognitive Function.

Background: α-klotho might play a role in neurodegenerative diseases.

Objective: To determine levels of α-klotho and apoE in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples and their relationship with the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR).

Methods: All subjects were between age 39 to 83+ (n = 94).

Trends in the use, complications, and costs of permanent pacemakers in Australia: A nationwide study from 2008 to 2017.

Objective: To characterize contemporary pacemaker procedure trends.

Methods: Nationwide analysis of pacemaker procedures and costs between 2008 and 2017 in Australia. The main outcome measures were total, age- and gender-specific implant, replacement, and complication rates, and costs.
