This paper describes the research and development of Checkpoint, a self-assessment instrument. It outlines how the instrument has helped managers in the NHS identify their strengths and weaknesses with respect to their management and use of informatics. The paper presents trends and feedback from the use of Checkpoint and the implications for future education and training of managers in the NHS.

Towards a Provider Builder Maturity Model to Empower Clinicians to Actively Participate in Electronic Health Record Design.
Appl Clin Inform
January 2025
Pediatrics, Children's Healthcare of Atlanta Egleston Hospital, Atlanta, United States.
Background: Engagement of clinicians who understand clinical workflows and technology constraints can accelerate the development and implementation of better electronic health record (EHR) designs that improve quality and reduce burnout. Provider builder programs can accelerate clinical informatics education for a broader coalition of clinical specialties.
Objective: In this State of the Art / Best Practice paper, we aim to (1) propose a provider builder maturity model informed by the experience of three institutions using a single EHR vendor (Epic Systems©) and (2) describe the program elements and relationships necessary to advance along this model to yield organizational benefits.
Conformation and binding of 12 Microcystin (MC) congeners to PPP1 using molecular dynamics simulations: a potential approach in support of an improved MC risk assessment.

Department of Informatics and Information Science, University of Konstanz, Germany; Faculty of Information Technology, Monash University, Australia. Electronic address:
Microcystins (MCs) occur frequently during cyanobacterial blooms worldwide, representing a group of currently about 300 known MC congeners, which are structurally highly similar. Human exposure to MCs via contaminated water, food or dietary supplements can lead to severe intoxications with ensuing high morbidity and in some cases mortality. Currently, one MC congener (MC-LR) is almost exclusively considered for risk assessment (RA) by the WHO.

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology and West China Biomedical Big Data Center, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan 610041, PR China; Med-X Center for Informatics, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan 610041, PR China. Electronic address:
Portal hypertension (PH) is the initial and main consequence of liver cirrhosis. Hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) measurement has been widely used to estimate portal pressure gradient (PPG) and detect portal hypertension. However, some clinical studies have found poor correlation between HVPG and PPG, which may lead to the misdiagnosis of portal hypertension.

Dept of Systems and Computer Engineering, Carleton University, Ottawa, ON K1S 5B6, Canada.
Background: Working from home during the Covid-19 pandemic was perceived differently by men and women working in STEM fields. The aim of this paper is to highlight the unexpected benefits generated by working from home during the pandemic.
Methods: Qualitative methodology was used to analyze data, collected via survey.
Heating up three cold cases in Norway using investigative genetic genealogy.
Forensic Sci Int Genet
December 2024
Department of Forensic Sciences, Oslo University Hospital, Oslo, Norway.
With the advent of commercial DNA databases, investigative genetic genealogy (IGG) has emerged as a powerful forensic tool, rivalling the impact of STR analyses, introduced four decades ago. IGG has been frequently applied in the US and tested in other countries, but never in Norway. Here, we apply IGG to three cold criminal cases and successfully identify the donor of the DNA in two of these cases.
