Association Between Corticosteroid Dose and Pain Reduction After Sacroiliac Joint Injections.
Am J Phys Med Rehabil
February 2025
From the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, University of Michigan Health, Ann Arbor, Michigan (WJN, DS, CZK, RB).
Objective: Sacroiliac joint-mediated back pain has proven therapeutic benefit from fluoroscopically guided sacroiliac joint corticosteroid injections. We examined corticosteroid dose and pain relief after fluoroscopically guided sacroiliac joint injections to better understand their relationship.
Design: This is a retrospective observational cohort analysis of electronic health record data on 661 patients who received unilateral fluoroscopically guided sacroiliac joint intraarticular corticosteroid injection with 40 mg versus 80 mg of methylprednisolone from 2012 and 2019.
Addressing Therapeutic Inertia in 2020 and Beyond: A 3-Year Initiative of the American Diabetes Association.

Research has shown that getting to glycemic targets early on leads to better outcomes in people with type 2 diabetes; yet, there has been no improvement in the attainment of A1C targets in the past decade. One reason is therapeutic inertia: the lack of timely adjustment to the treatment regimen when a person's therapeutic targets are not met. This article describes the scope and priorities of the American Diabetes Association's 3-year Overcoming Therapeutic Inertia Initiative.

Recently the concept that prescription of chronic hemodialysis (HD) start should be tailored based on residual renal function (RRF) and urine output (UO) has been revived from the past and called infrequent or incremental dialysis. It mainly consists in prescribing 1 or 2 HD sessions per week instead of what has become the standard thrice-weekly HD. It is both surprising and fascinating that almost 60 years after the first end-stage kidney disease patient was treated by Scribner et al.

Exploring racial disparity in obesity: A mediation analysis considering geo-coded environmental factors.
Spat Spatiotemporal Epidemiol

New Orleans, LA, United States . Electronic address:
Research shows aconsistent racial disparity in obesity between white and black adults in the United States. Accounting for the disparity is a challenge given the variety of the contributing factors, the nature of the association, and the multilevel relationships among the factors. We used the multivariable mediation analysis (MMA) method to explore the racial disparity in obesity considering not only the individual behavior but also geospatially derived environmental risk factors.
