Background: In the United States, up to 75% of primary care patients go untested for HIV each year, and nearly two-thirds of adults report never having been tested for HIV. Integrated HIV and STI testing, combining these tests into a single visit, is recommended as a status neutral approach to prevention.
Setting: Over 200 New York State Department of Health-funded primary care clinics, hospitals, health centers and community-based organizations funded to conduct integrated screening.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the use of buprenorphine within non-hospital residential programs. We hypothesize that programs offering long-term treatment will be less likely to accept or prescribe buprenorphine, but those that accept public insurance will demonstrate relative increased likelihood of buprenorphine availability.
Method: This study analyzed data from the 2021 National Substance Use and Mental Health Services Survey.

Aims: To compare the effectiveness of molnupiravir and nirmatrelvir-ritonavir for non-hospitalized and hospitalized COVID-19 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).
Materials And Methods: Territory-wide electronic health records in Hong Kong were used to perform target trial emulation using a sequential trial approach. Patients (1) aged ≥18 years, (2) with T2DM, (3) with COVID-19 infection, and (4) who received molnupiravir or nirmatrelvir-ritonavir within 5 days of infection between 16 March 2022 and 31 December 2022 in non-hospital and hospital settings were included.

Introduction: Amid substantial surgical wait lists, novel methods are needed to improve the delivery of surgical care in Canada. One strategy involves shifting select surgeries from hospitals into community ambulatory centers, which expedite procedures and allow hospitals to prioritize critical and complex patients. We sought to evaluate surgical outcomes at a novel, Canadian urologic clinic and surgical center.

Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) and mammaliicocci are opportunistic human and animal pathogens, often resistant to multiple antimicrobials, including methicillin. Methicillin-resistant CoNS (MRCoNS) have traditionally been linked to hospitals and healthcare facilities, where they are significant contributors to nosocomial infections. However, screenings of non-hospital environments have linked MRCoNS and methicillin-resistant mammaliicocci (MRM) to other ecological niches.
