Health Care Hotspotting - A Randomized, Controlled Trial.
N Engl J Med
January 2020
From the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (A.F., J.D.) and the National Bureau of Economic Research (A.Z., S.T.) - both in Cambridge.
Background: There is widespread interest in programs aiming to reduce spending and improve health care quality among "superutilizers," patients with very high use of health care services. The "hotspotting" program created by the Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers (hereafter, the Coalition) has received national attention as a promising superutilizer intervention and has been expanded to cities around the country. In the months after hospital discharge, a team of nurses, social workers, and community health workers visits enrolled patients to coordinate outpatient care and link them with social services.

As part of a multifactorial approach to address weak incentives for innovative antimicrobial drug development, market entry rewards (MERs) are an emerging solution. Recently, the Duke-Margolis Center for Health Policy released the Priority Antimicrobial Value and Entry (PAVE) Award proposal, which combines a MER with payment reforms, transitioning from volume-based to "value-based" payments for antimicrobials. Here, the PAVE Award and similar MERs are reviewed, focusing on further refinement and avenues for implementation.

Template for skin regeneration.
Plast Reconstr Surg
January 2011
Cambridge and Boston, Mass. From the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School; and Massachusetts General Hospital.
Background: Advances in critical care allowed survival of large total body surface burn patients in the 1970s, spawning the development of artificial skin for burn victims. Lack of dermis resulted in severe scarring and contractures. The physicochemical properties that are critical to dermal regeneration have subsequently been described, and a dermal regeneration template has been developed.

From the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Picower Institute for Learning and Memory, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139, the Stanley Center for Psychiatric Research; Broad Institute of Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02139. Electronic address:
Organogenesis is a highly integrated process with a fundamental requirement for precise cell cycle control. Mechanistically, the cell cycle is composed of transitions and thresholds that are controlled by coordinated post-translational modifications. In this study, we describe a novel mechanism controlling the persistence of the transcription factor ATF4 by multisite phosphorylation.
