Patient Panel Handoffs for New Interns in Internal Medicine Residency Continuity Clinics.

Background: Compared to inpatient care transitions, end-of-year resident continuity clinic panel transitions affect a greater number of patients, yet warm handoffs occur less often.

Objective: We developed a program-wide curriculum to implement warm handoffs (defined as in-person or virtual via videoconference) for high-risk continuity clinic patients between graduating and incoming residents.

Methods: The warm handoff intervention was phased in at different clinic sites over the study period and ultimately implemented program-wide across nine affiliated continuity clinics.

CD39 delineates chimeric antigen receptor regulatory T cell subsets with distinct cytotoxic & regulatory functions against human islets.

Human regulatory T cells (Treg) suppress other immune cells. Their dysfunction contributes to the pathophysiology of autoimmune diseases, including type 1 diabetes (T1D). Infusion of Tregs is being clinically evaluated as a novel way to prevent or treat T1D.

Characterizing as a surrogate for wastewater treatment studies and bioaerosol emissions.

This study characterized (BG) as a Sterne (BAS) surrogate for wastewater treatment-related studies of UV inactivation, adsorption onto powdered activated carbon (PAC), and bioaerosol emission. The inactivation of BG was faster than that of BAS in DI water (pseudo first-order rate constants of 0.065 and 0.

Using Concepts of Photovoice to Engage in Discussions Related to Burnout and Wellbeing.

The purpose of this study was to identify essential skills and abilities for mitigating job-related stressors and preventing burnout while also establishing connections between students and community health workers to provide students with a deeper comprehension of the challenges inherent to their future professions. Ten community health workers were interviewed and asked to present photographs that explored sources of burnout and promotions of well-being. The photographs along with quotes were displayed in a gallery style exhibit for students to view and talk with the community health workers and complete a survey.
