CAA-ri Masquerading as a High-Grade Glioma: A Case Report.

This case describes a 76-year-old male with initial clinical concern for a high-grade glioma, who was ultimately diagnosed with cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation The patient's presentation included a tonic-clonic seizure followed by aphasia and right-sided hemiparesis. Magnetic resonance brain imaging demonstrated a large left frontal lesion with parenchymal contrast enhancement. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy indicated elevated choline to creatine and choline to N-acetyl aspartate ratios, further suggestive of high-grade glioma.

Cluster randomised trial of a complex interprofessional intervention (interprof ACT) to reduce hospital admission of nursing home residents.

Background: Some hospital admissions of nursing home residents (NHRs) might be attributed to inadequate interprofessional collaboration. To improve general practitioner-nurse collaboration in nursing homes (NHs), we developed an intervention package (interprof ACT) in a previous study.

Objective: To assess the impact of interprof ACT on the proportion of hospitalisation and other clinical parameters within 12 months from randomisation among NHRs.

A Game Theory Approach for Strategic Partnerships in Academic Medicine.

Forming strategic partnerships is vital to academic health centers to further their missions of patient care, education, research, and community engagement. Formulating a strategy for such partnerships can be daunting due to the complexities of the health care landscape. The authors propose a game theory approach to partnership formation with the players being gatekeepers, facilitators, organizational employees, and economic buyers.

Comparing saliva and blood for the detection of mosaic genomic abnormalities that cause syndromic intellectual disability.

We aimed to determine whether SNP-microarray genomic testing of saliva had a greater diagnostic yield than blood for pathogenic copy number variants (CNVs). We selected patients who underwent CMA testing of both blood and saliva from 23,289 blood and 21,857 saliva samples. Our cohort comprised 370 individuals who had testing of both, 224 with syndromic intellectual disability (ID) and 146 with isolated ID.

Profiling vaccine believers and skeptics in nurses: A latent profile analysis.

Background: A tailored immunization program is deemed more successful in encouraging vaccination. Understanding the profiles of vaccine hesitancy constructs in nurses can help policymakers in devising such programs. Encouraging vaccination in nurses is an important step in building public confidence in the upcoming COVID-19 and influenza vaccination campaigns.
