Objectives: To investigate the relationship between social determinants of health and timeliness of management, adherence to follow-up, and outcomes of treatment with interarytenoid injection augmentation (IAIA).
Methods: Retrospective cohort study of all pediatric patients treated with IAIA at a large pediatric institution's multidisciplinary aerodigestive clinic between August 2022 and February 2024. Retrieved demographic factors, dates of referral, consultation, treatment, and follow-up, as well as objective measures of dysphagia and aspiration via videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS) reports, using dysphagia outcome and severity scale (DOSS) scores and the greatest unsafe thickness, or 'aspiration score'.
Objective: Smoking is concentrated in behavioral health populations in the United States, calling for efforts to increase access to cessation services.
Methods: Between 2010 and 2023, the Smoking Cessation Leadership Center (SCLC) implemented state Leadership Academies-a facilitated summit of public health leaders and community champions charged with developing an action plan to address smoking in their state. Using a multi-methods approach, we evaluated state Leadership Academies using the RE-AIM framework.
The impact of drug saturation and processing regime on the microstructure of amorphous solid dispersions (ASDs) produced by hot-melt extrusion (HME) has been investigated. By exploring various combinations of drug loadings and processing temperatures, a range of drug saturation points were obtained by HME. The process was monitored with an in-line low-frequency Raman probe to construct the respective solubility phase diagram (i.
