Published: June 1989

A comparison was made among phenylpropanolamine, aspirin, acetaminophen and ibuprofen in terms of their relative safety, as measured by adverse reaction reports published since 1980, the five semiannual reports published by the Drug Abuse Warning Network during 1984-1986 and annual reports from Poison Control Centers from 1983-1986. On each of the three measures, phenylpropanolamine had the fewest reported adverse reactions.

Introduction: High occupational stress is generally associated with poorer mental health and reduced performance in military personnel, whereas access to support resources is associated with positive outcomes. However, little research has examined the unique stressors and supports experienced by sailors on ships while underway at sea. The objectives of this study were to (1) identify sailors' underway stressors and supports and (2) examine how these differ as a function of demographic and operational factors.

Effective documentation and coding in health care are crucial for patient care, safety, workflow improvement and accurate billing. This quality improvement study aimed to enhance History and Physical (H&P) note documentation and charge capture processes to integrate coding and billing aspects, capture authentic work, preserve the H&P's integrity and align H&P-related revenue with actual performance. A multidisciplinary team, including divisional leadership and specialists in documentation improvement, electronic health records, lean/six sigma methodology, a nocturnist and a senior-level physician coding auditor, initiated a quality improvement project.

Objective: Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is rare, but it is one of the most frequent extra-articular manifestations and a relevant cause of morbidity and mortality in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Over the past few years, Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKis) have been reported to have promising efficacy in the treatment of active RA, but recent concerns have been raised about their safety profile, namely malignancy and cardiovascular disease, limiting their use to certain patient categories.

Methods: The objective of this narrative review is to summarize the current evidence of the efficacy and safety of JAKis in RA-ILD management, investigating a possible emerging role for this drug class in such subset of patients.

The goal of this study was to characterize the microbial profile of two different fresh pork cuts, bootjack (BJ) trim and tenderloin (TL), through a 16S rRNA sequencing workflow developed specifically for investigating low-biomass fresh meat within a commercial production schedule. Additionally, this study aimed to determine a baseline prevalence and enumeration profile across these two fresh pork cuts. Results showed that microbiome diversity was different between the BJ and TL, and also differed significantly by processing date.

Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and a polysaccharide (SUP) were embedded in the calcium phosphate cement (CPC) scaffold, and the bone repair ability was evaluated. The new scaffolds were characterized using x-ray diffraction, Fourier transform-infrared, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy analyses. CPC-BMP2-SUPH scaffold promoted the BMP-2 release by 1.
