Communication needs regarding heart failure trajectory and palliative care between patients and healthcare providers: A cross-sectional study.
PLoS One
January 2025
College of Nursing and Research Institute of Nursing Science, Ajou University, Suwon, Korea.
Introduction: Heart failure (HF) is a chronic condition with an unpredictable trajectory, making effective communication between patients and healthcare providers crucial for optimizing outcomes. This study aims to investigate and compare the communication needs regarding HF trajectory and palliative care between patients and healthcare providers and to identify factors associated with the communication needs of patients with HF.
Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed, involving 100 patients with HF and 35 healthcare providers.
Inpatient service utilization amongst infants diagnosed with Respiratory Syncytial Virus infection (RSV) in the United States.
PLoS One
January 2025
Department of Health Services, Policy and Practice, Brown University School of Public Health, Providence, RI, United States of America.
Introduction: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the leading cause of hospitalization among US infants. Characterizing service utilization during infant RSV hospitalizations may provide important information for prioritizing resources and interventions.
Objective: The objective of this study was to describe the procedures and services received by infants hospitalized during their first RSV episode in their first RSV season, in addition to what proportion of infants died during this hospitalization.
Application of core functions and forms in complex health intervention research: a scoping review protocol.
BMJ Open
January 2025
Adult and Child Center for Health Outcomes Research and Delivery Science (ACCORDS), University of Colorado School of Medicine, Aurora, Colorado, USA.
Introduction: The ability of healthcare, community and public health systems to effectively implement and disseminate research innovations depends on contextual factors at multiple interconnected levels of influence (eg, the innovation, individual, provider/implementor, organisation and health system). Recently, there has been an increase in the development of complex interventions designed to target multiple levels, designed for or adapted to the context in which they are delivered. Two concepts from complex systems thinking have been increasingly used to operationalise such interventions-core functions (theory and evidence-driven purposes of interventions) and forms (adaptable activities that perform each core function).

Center for Alzheimer Research and Treatment, Department of Neurology, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Introduction: The Alzheimer's Association and the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging convened a multidisciplinary workgroup to update appropriate use criteria (AUC) for amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) and to develop AUC for tau PET.
Methods: The workgroup identified key research questions that guided a systematic literature review on clinical amyloid/tau PET. Building on this review, the workgroup developed 17 clinical scenarios in which amyloid or tau PET may be considered.
Survival benefit associated with liver transplantation for hepatocellular carcinoma based on tumor burden scores at listing.
Hepatol Commun
January 2025
Division of Transplant, Department of Surgery, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA.
Introduction: Liver transplantation (LT) provides significant survival benefits to patients with unresectable HCC. In the United States, organ allocation policies for HCCs within the United Network for Organ Sharing criteria do not prioritize patients based on their differences in oncological characteristics. This study assessed whether transplant-associated survival benefits (TASBs) vary among patients with different tumor burden scores (TBS) measured at the time of listing.
