Investigating Racial, Ethnic, and Socioeconomic Disparities in Pelvic Organ Prolapse Surgery.
Urogynecology (Phila)
January 2025
Department of Urology, Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA.
Importance: Racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities have been observed in the mode of pelvic organ prolapse surgery. Some of the disparities may be attributed to differences in access to care and advanced surgical technology across the United States, although this is difficult to study.
Objective: We aimed to investigate whether racial/ethnic or socioeconomic disparities in a mode of prolapse surgery exist in a managed care setting, where differences in access are minimized.
A sustainable and expedited 'One-Stop' prostate cancer diagnostic pathway to reduce environmental impact and enhance accessibility.
BJUI Compass
December 2024
USC Institute of Urology, Catherine and Joseph Aresty Department of Urology, Keck School of Medicine University of Southern California Los Angeles California USA.
Objective: To assess the carbon footprint, accessibility, and diagnostic performance of an expedited 'One-Stop' prostate cancer (PCa) diagnostic pathway.
Materials And Methods: A total of 1083 consecutive patients undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) followed by transrectal ultrasound fusion-guided prostate biopsy (PBx) were identified from a prospective database. The patients were divided according to the diagnostic pathway: One-Stop, with MRI and same-day PBx (3 hours apart), or Standard, with MRI followed by a second visit for PBx.
Evaluation of the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on hospital admission related to common infections: Risk prediction models to tackle antimicrobial resistance in primary care.
PLoS One
December 2024
Centre for Health Informatics, Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health, School of Health Sciences, the University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom.
Background: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a multifaceted global challenge, partly driven by inappropriate antibiotic prescribing. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on treatment of common infections, develop risk prediction models and examine the effects of antibiotics on infection-related hospital admissions.
Methods: With the approval of NHS England, we accessed electronic health records from The Phoenix Partnership (TPP) through OpenSAFELY platform.
The 340B Drug Pricing Program and Management of Advanced Prostate Cancer.
Cancer Med
January 2025
Department of Urology, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Introduction: Oral targeted therapies are a standard of care for men with advanced prostate cancer. However, these therapies are expensive, which may be a barrier to some, particularly the most economically disadvantaged. Through investment in programs to assist this population, savings generated from the 340B program have the potential to mitigate barriers to initiating treatment with targeted therapies in these men.

Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken)
December 2024
University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
Objective: Estimate the budget impact of funding a standardized education and exercise therapy program (GLA:D®) for people with hip and knee OA waiting for total joint replacement (TJR) consultation in a universal publicly insured healthcare system in Canada.
Methods: We built a budget impact analysis (BIA) model to estimate the annual cost of providing GLA:D® program to people waiting for TJR consultation and then forecasted a three-year budget cycle. The base case assumes 40% attend GLA:D®, 11% avoid surgery, uniform care delivery, training costs are incurred separately, and the healthcare system has enough trained staff to meet demand.
