Mycoheterotrophic plants acquire nitrogen (N) directly from the soil and through their symbiotic fungi. The fungi-derived N has received considerable attention, but the contribution of soil-derived N has been largely overlooked. We investigated how the leafless, rootless, and almost mycoheterotrophic orchid Cymbidium macrorhizon obtains soil N by applying N-labeled ammonium nitrate in its natural habitat, and tracking metabolite accumulation and mycorrhizal fungal association after N application.

Objective: The epidemiology of COVID-19 has substantially changed since its emergence given the availability of effective vaccines, circulation of different viral variants, and re-infections. We aimed to develop models to predict 30-day COVID-19 hospitalization and death in the Omicron era for contemporary clinical and research applications.
Methods: We used comprehensive electronic health records from a national cohort of patients in the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) who tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 between March 1, 2022, and March 31, 2023.

Introduction: The transfer of patients between hospitals, known as interhospital transfer (IHT), is associated with higher rates of mortality, longer lengths of stay and greater resource utilisation compared with admissions from the emergency department. To characterise the IHT process and identify key barriers and facilitators to IHT care, we examined the experiences of physician and advanced practice provider (APP) hospital medicine clinicians who care for IHT patients transferred to their facility.
Methods: Qualitative descriptive study using semistructured interviews with adult medicine hospitalists from an academic acute care hospital that accepts approximately 4000 IHT patients annually.

Background: The gold-standard treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) is medication for OUD (MOUD). However, less than a quarter of people with OUD initiate MOUD. Expanding the Collaborative Care Model (CoCM) to include primary care patients with OUD could improve access to and initiation of MOUD.

Anger can adversely impact functioning in veterans. Psychological aggression, which is related to but distinct from anger, is particularly detrimental to veterans' mental health. Research examining anger and psychological aggression following individual therapy for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has demonstrated small effect sizes.

Aim: The purpose of this secondary analysis was to describe issues related to internet connections during a virtual randomized clinical trial (v-RCT) that included family caregiver participants living in rural areas.
Background: Success of v-RCTs depends on reliable, high-quality internet access, which can be problematic in rural areas.
Methods: Interventionists documented connectivity issues and corrections made to address connectivity in a narrative note after each virtual visit with family caregivers enrolled in a v-RCT.

Women are the fastest growing population among Veterans and have substantial risk factors that increase their likelihood for developing cancer. To ensure that the Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration (VHA) offers the best possible cancer care to women Veterans, it established the Breast and Gynecologic Oncology System of Excellence (BGSoE) in 2021. The BGSoE offers telehealth oncology services and a comprehensive cancer navigation program.

Background: Emergency department (ED) visits at end-of-life may cause financial strain and serve as a marker of inadequate access to community services and health care. We sought to examine end-of-life ED use, total healthcare spending, and out-of-pocket spending in a nationally representative sample.
Methods: Using Medicare Current Beneficiary Survey data, we conducted a pooled cross-sectional analysis of Medicare beneficiaries aged 65+ years with a date of death between July 1, 2015 and December 31, 2021.

This study investigates the cognitive mechanisms underlying vigilance and pattern recognition using a novel adaptation of Mackworth's Clock Test. We aimed to quantify the time it takes for temporal patterns detected unconsciously through implicit learning to surface in the conscious mind within a dynamic vigilance task environment. Forty-eight participants detected random and non-disclosed rhythmic anomalous clock hand movements in this setting.

The wettability of subsurface minerals is a critical factor influencing the pore-scale displacement of fluids in underground reservoirs. As such, it plays a key role in hydrocarbon production and greenhouse gas geo-sequestration. We present a comprehensive and critical review of the current state of knowledge on the intermolecular forces governing wettability of rock minerals most relevant to subsurface fluid storage and recovery.

There is a growing emphasis on reducing the gap between research and routine practice. Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) science offers theories, models, and frameworks to enhance the implementation, impact, and sustainment of new programs and interventions. Few training opportunities are available that help leaders, researchers, clinicians, and staff (implementers) translate original research into practice settings in a more timely and effective manner without requiring significant time away from their primary clinical duties.

The human-derived NK-92 cell-based CAR-NK therapy exhibits inconsistency with overall suboptimal efficacy and rapid in vivo clearance of CAR-NK92 cells in cancer patients. Analysis indicates that although pre-existing IgM in healthy individuals (n = 10) strongly recognizes both NK-92 and CAR-NK92 cells, IgG and IgE do not. However, only a subset of cancer patients (3/8) exhibit strong IgM recognition of these cells, with some (2/8) showing pre-existing IgG recognition.
