Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate experiences and needs in the transition from child to adult care in an outpatient clinic from the perspective of adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and their parents focusing on which aspects in the transition could ease the process.
Design: A qualitative design with an inductive approach.
Methods: Inductive content analysis was used to analyse individual interviews with three parents and three adolescents from a rheumatology clinic in Denmark.
Results: Three descriptive categories emerged: "Information during transition," "Personalized care" and "A change of roles." The comparative analysis of the categories revealed two explanatory themes: "To move from something known to something unknown" and "To develop and change." We found that preparation for transition, information of organisational and procedural changes when entering adult care, continuity and relationships with health professionals characterised by trust as well as involvement of adolescents and parents will ease the process of transition.

Use of Body Armor by EMS Clinicians, Workplace Violence, and Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Care.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Department of Emergency Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.
Importance: There is a clear benefit to body armor against firearms; however, it remains unclear how these vests may influence day-to-day patient encounters when worn by emergency medical services (EMS).
Objective: To determine the association of ballistic vests worn by EMS clinicians with workplace violence (WPV) and disparities in care among racial and/or ethnic minority patients.
Design, Setting, And Participants: Prospective cohort study of a volunteer-based sample of EMS clinicians at a large, multistate EMS agency encompassing 15 ground sites across the Midwest from April 1, 2023, to March 31, 2024.
Longitudinal Analysis of Obesity Drug Use and Public Awareness.
JAMA Netw Open
January 2025
Johns Hopkins Ciccarone Center for the Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland.
Importance: Obesity, a chronic disease with escalating global prevalence, poses considerable health risks. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), including liraglutide, semaglutide, and tirzepatide, have demonstrated efficacy for weight loss in clinical trials. The paradigm shift in the approach to obesity management drugs (OMDs) may offer an opportunity to examine online search activity and prescription trends.

January 2025
Division of Transplant Surgery, Department of Surgery, Mayo Clinic Arizona, Phoenix.
Importance: Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has been shown to reduce peritransplant complications. Despite increasing NMP use in liver transplant (LT), there is a scarcity of real-world clinical experience data.
Objective: To compare LT outcomes between donation after brain death (DBD) and donation after circulatory death (DCD) allografts preserved with NMP or static cold storage (SCS).
Importance: Delirium is common after cardiac surgery and associated with adverse outcomes. Intraoperative benzodiazepines may increase postoperative delirium but restricting intraoperative benzodiazepines has not yet been evaluated in a randomized trial.
Objective: To determine whether an institutional policy of restricted intraoperative benzodiazepine administration reduced the incidence of postoperative delirium.
