Interprofessional interventions that impact collaboration and quality of care across inpatient trauma care continuum: A scoping review.

Introduction: Despite the recognized importance of interprofessional collaboration (IPC) in trauma care, healthcare professionals often work in silos. Interprofessional (IP) interventions are crucial for optimizing IPC and delivering high-quality care across clinical contexts, yet their effectiveness throughout the inpatient trauma care continuum is not well understood. Thus, this review aimed to examine the literature on the effectiveness of IP interventions on collaboration processes and related outcomes in inpatient trauma care.

Pilot randomized controlled trial of a program to enhance experience and adherence with adjuvant endocrine therapy among women with non-metastatic breast cancer: 12-month quantitative results.

Purpose: Adjuvant endocrine therapy (AET) reduces recurrence risk after hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, but non-adherence is common. We pilot-tested SOIE, a program to enhance AET experience and adherence, to assess its acceptability, feasibility, and effects on psychosocial precursors of AET adherence.

Methods: We conducted a 12-month pilot randomized controlled trial among women who had a first AET prescription.

Clinical practice guideline recommendations to improve the mental health of adult trauma patients: protocol for a systematic review.

Introduction: Mental disorders are common in adult patients with traumatic injuries. To limit the burden of poor psychological well-being in this population, recognised authorities have issued recommendations through clinical practice guidelines (CPGs). However, the uptake of evidence-based recommendations to improve the mental health of trauma patients has been low until recently.

Adaptation and Validation of the Standardized Swallowing Assessment Tool for Patients With Moderate-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury and Cervical Spinal Cord Injury.

Oropharyngeal dysphagia is common in moderate-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) and cervical spinal cord injury (SCI) patients and can have serious consequences. Delaying feeding in these patients can also be detrimental. Nonetheless, the psychometric properties of screening tools that can promptly identify dysphagia have never been tested in these neurotrauma populations.

Circulating adrenal 11-oxygenated androgens are associated with clinical outcome in endometrial cancer.

Context: Recent evidence support that androgens play an important role in the etiology of endometrial cancer (EC). Adrenal-derived 11-oxygenated androgens are highly potent agonists of the androgen receptor (AR), comparable to testosterone (T) and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) that have not been studied in the context of EC.

Methodology: We studied a cohort of 272 newly diagnosed postmenopausal EC cases undergoing surgical treatment.
