In a federally qualified health center, we assess a novel primary care delivery model, advanced team-based care (aTBC), that embeds care team members in patient visits. Using a difference-in-differences research design, we measure visit intensity, compliance with preventive care recommendations, and health outcomes among patients in the aTBC model compared with patients in a traditional team-based delivery model. We find increases in receipt of some recommended preventive care and in visit intensity, but no change in health outcomes. The aTBC model may improve some dimensions of care quality for low-income, vulnerable populations.

Background: In China, investigations into the efficacy of neurological clinical teaching try to ascertain the impacts of various teaching methods on intervention outcomes. However, these studies often suffer from limited sample sizes, single-center studies and low quality, compounded by the lack of direct comparative analyses between teaching methods, thereby leaving the identification of the most effective method unresolved. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of various teaching methods in the standardized training of Chinese neurology clinicians to inform an optimal teaching model utilizing a Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) approach.

Background: Safe pediatric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) ideally relies on non-sedative techniques, as avoiding risky sedation is inherently safer. However, in practice, sedation often becomes unavoidable, particularly for younger children or those with anxiety, to ensure motion-free, high-quality imaging. This narrative review explores the current practices and proposes strategies to enhance safety in pediatric MRI examinations.
