| 1 | Evaluation of a point of care ultrasound curriculum for Indonesian physicians taught by fi rst-year medical students显示文摘BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to assess the short-term efficacy of a 4-week ultrasound curriculum taught by American first-year medical students to general practitioners working in public health care clinics, or puskesmas, in Bandung, Indonesia.METHODS: We performed a prospective, observational study of Indonesian health care practitioners from public clinics in Bandung, Indonesia. These practitioners were enrolled in a 4-week ultrasound training course taught by first-year American medical students. A total of six sessions were held comprising of 38 ultrasound milestones. A pre-course and post-course written exam and practical exam was taken by each participant.RESULTS: We enrolled 41 clinicians in the course. The average pre-course exam score was 35.2% with a 2.4% pass rate, whereas the average post-course exam score was 82.0% with a 92.7% pass rate. The average practical score at the completion of the course was 83.2%(SD=0.145) with 82.9% of the class passing(score above 75.0%).CONCLUSION: Our data suggests that first-year medical students can effectively teach ultrasound to physicians in Indonesia using a 4-week intensive ultrasound training course. Future studies are needed to determine the amount of training required for proficiency and to evaluate the physicians' perceptions of the student-instructors' depth of knowledge and skill in point of care ultrasound. | Jonathan B.Lee Christina Tse Thomas Keown Michael Louthan Christopher Gabriel Alexander Anshus Bima Hasjim Katrina Lee Esther Kim Luke Yu Allen Yu Shadi Lahham Steven Bunch Maili Alvarado Abdulatif Gari John C.Fox | 2017 | World Journal of Emergency Medicine2017，8，4： | 4 |

| 3 | Ecological and behavioural risk factors of scrub typhus in central Vietnam:a case-control study显示文摘Background The risk factors for scrub typhus in Vietnam remain unknown.Scrub typhus caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi often presents as an undifferentiated febrile illness and remains under appreciated due to the limited availability of diagnostic tests.This tropical rickettsial illness is increasingly recognized as an important cause of non-malaria acute undifferentiated fever in Asia.This study aimed to investigate behavioural and ecological related risk factors of scrub typhus to prevent this potentially life-threatening disease in Vietnam.Methods We conducted a clinical hospital-based active surveillance study,and a retrospective residence-enrolment date-age-matched case–control study in Khanh Hoa province,Vietnam,from August 2018 to March 2020.Clinical examinations,polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay IgM tests were applied to define cases and controls.All enrolled participants filled out a questionnaire including demographic socio-economic status,personal behaviors/protective equipment,habitat connections,land use,and possible exposure to the vector.Multivariable conditional logistic regression was used to define the scrub typhus associated risk factors.Results We identified 44 confirmed cases and matched them with 152 controls.Among cases and controls,the largest age group was the 41–50 years old and males accounted for 61.4%and 42.8%,respectively.There were similarities in demographic characteristics between the two groups,with the exception of occupation.Several factors were significantly associated with acquisition of scrub typhus,including sitting/laying directly on household floor[adjusted OR(aOR)=4.9,95%CI:1.6–15.1,P=0.006],household with poor sanitation/conditions(aOR=7.9,95%CI:1.9–32.9,P=0.005),workplace environment with risk(aOR=3.0,95%CI:1.2–7.6,P=0.020),always observing mice around home(aOR=3.7,95%CI:1.4–9.9,P=0.008),and use of personal protective equipment in the field(aOR=0.4,95%CI:0.1–1.1,P=0.076).Conclusions Ecological and household hygiene-related factors were more associated with scrub typhus infection,than individual-level exposure activities in the hyper-endemic area.These findings support local education and allow people to protect themselves from scrub typhus,especially in areas with limitations in diagnostic capacity. | Hanh Thi Duc Tran Jan Hattendorf Hung Manh Do Thanh Tien Hoang Hang Thi Hai Hoang Hoa Ngoc Lam Mai Kim Huynh Lan Thi Hoang Vu Jakob Zinsstag Daniel Henry Paris Esther Schelling | 2021 | Infectious Diseases of Poverty2021，10，4： | 1 |

| 9 | Dietary intake of advanced glycation endproducts(AGEs)and cancer risk across more than 20 anatomical sites:A multinational cohort study显示文摘Dear Editor,In the European region,which shares 22.8%of the global cancer burden for 10%of the global population,there were around 4.4 million new cancer cases and 1.9 million deaths from cancer in 2020[1].The reasons for the high cancer incidence rates are complex;however,diet and dietary components are among the main contributors to cancer risk[2].In modern-day living,a growing proportion of people include in their diets ultra-processed foods.Byproducts of food processing and home-prepared foods are so-called dietary advanced glycation endproducts(AGEs),which are reactive metabolites emerging during the breakdown of reducing sugar.AGEs production is preponderant in dry high-heat processes(e.g.,baking,roasting);hence foods such as cakes,crisps,crackers,cereal products,meat and meat-derived products represent a major source of dietary AGEs[3]. | Reynalda Córdova Ana-Lucia Mayén Viktoria Knaze Elom Kouassivi Aglago Casper Schalkwijk Karl-Heinz Wagner Kim Overvad Anne Tjønneland Cecilie Kyrø Verena Andrea Katzke Charlotte Le Cornet Matthias Bernd Schulze Anna Birukov Domenico Palli Sara Grioni Fabrizio Pasanisi Alberto Catalano Torkjel Manning Sandanger Inger Torhild Gram Guri Skeie Marta Crous-Bou Esther Molina-Montes Pilar Amiano Sandra Milena Colorado-Yohar Eva Ardanaz Isabel Drake Jonas Manjer Ingegerd Johansson Anders Esberg Aurora Perez-Cornago Elisabete Weiderpass Mazda Jenab Heinz Freisling | 2022 | Cancer Communications2022，42，10： | 0 |
| 10 | Outcomes of early hospital readmission after kidney transplantation: Perspectives from a Canadian transplant centre显示文摘BACKGROUND Early hospital readmissions(EHRs)after kidney transplantation range in incidence from 18%-47%and are important and substantial healthcare quality indicators.EHR can adversely impact clinical outcomes such as graft function and patient mortality as well as healthcare costs.EHRs have been extensively studied in American healthcare systems,but these associations have not been explored within a Canadian setting.Due to significant differences in the delivery of healthcare and patient outcomes,results from American studies cannot be readily applicable to Canadian populations.A better understanding of EHR can facilitate improved discharge planning and long-term outpatient management post kidney transplant.AIM To explore the burden of EHR on kidney transplant recipients(KTRs)and the Canadian healthcare system in a large transplant centre.METHODS This single centre cohort study included 1564 KTRs recruited from January 1,2009 to December 31,2017,with a 1-year follow-up.We defined EHR as hospitalizations within 30 d or 90 d of transplant discharge,excluding elective procedures.Multivariable Cox and linear regression models were used to examine EHR,late hospital readmissions(defined as hospitalizations within 31-365 d for 30-d EHR and within 91-365 d for 90-d EHR),and outcomes including graft function and patient mortality.RESULTS In this study,307(22.4%)and 394(29.6%)KTRs had 30-d and 90-d EHRs,respectively.Factors such as having previous cases of rejection,being transplanted in more recent years,having a longer duration of dialysis pretransplant,and having an expanded criteria donor were associated with EHR post-transplant.The cumulative probability of death censored graft failure,as well as total graft failure,was higher among the 90-d EHR group as compared to patients with no EHR.While multivariable models found no significant association between EHR and patient mortality,patients with EHR were at an increased risk of late hospital readmissions,poorer kidney function throughout the 1st year post-transplant,and higher hospital-based care costs within the 1st year of follow-up.CONCLUSION EHRs are associated with suboptimal outcomes after kidney transplant and increased financial burden on the healthcare system.The results warrant the need for effective strategies to reduce post-transplant EHR. | Olusegun Famure Esther DKim Yanhong Li Johnny WHuang Roman Zyla Magdalene Au Pei XuanChen Heebah Sultan Monika Ashwin Michelle Minkovich S Joseph Kim | 2023 | World Journal of Transplantation2023，13，6： | 0 |
| 11 | COVID-19 among African Americans and Hispanics:Does gastrointestinal symptoms impact the outcome?显示文摘BACKGROUND The coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)disproportionately affected African Americans(AA)and Hispanics(HSP).AIM To analyze the significant effectors of outcome in African American patient population and make special emphasis on gastrointestinal(GI)symptoms,laboratory values and comorbidities METHODS We retrospectively evaluated the medical records of 386 COVID-19 positive patients admitted at Howard University Hospital between March and May 2020.We assessed the symptoms,including the GI manifestations,comorbidities,and mortality,using logistic regression analysis.RESULTS Of these 386 COVID-19 positive patients,257(63.7%)were AAs,102(25.3%)HSP,and 26(6.45%)Whites.There were 257(63.7%)AA,102(25.3%)HSP,26(6.45%)Whites.The mean age was 55.6 years(SD=18.5).However,the mean age of HSP was the lowest(43.7 years vs 61.2 for Whites vs 60 for AAs).The mortality rate was highest among the AAs(20.6%)and lowest among HSP(6.9%).Patients with shortness of breath(SOB)(OR2=3.64,CI=1.73-7.65)and elevated AST(OR2=8.01,CI=3.79-16.9)elevated Procalcitonin(OR2=8.27,CI=3.95-17.3),AST(OR2=8.01,CI=3.79-16.9),ferritin(OR2=2.69,CI=1.24-5.82),and Lymphopenia(OR2=2.77,CI=1.41-5.45)had a high mortality rate.Cough and fever were common but unrelated to the outcome.Hypertension and diabetes mellitus were the most common comorbidities.Glucocorticoid treatment was associated with higher mortality(OR2=5.40,CI=2.72-10.7).Diarrhea was prevalent(18.8%),and GI symptoms did not affect the outcome.CONCLUSION African Americans in our study had the highest mortality as they consisted of an older population and comorbidities.Age is the most important factor along with SOB in determining the mortality rate.Overall,elevated liver enzymes,ferritin,procalcitonin and C-reactive protein were associated with poor prognosis.GI symptoms did not affect the outcome.Glucocorticoids should be used judiciously,considering the poor outcomes associated with it.Attention should also be paid to monitor liver function during COVID-19,especially in AA and HSP patients with higher disease severity. | Hassan Ashktorab Adeleye Folake Antonio Pizuorno Gholamreza Oskrochi Philip Oppong-Twene NuriTamanna Maryam Mehdipour Dalivand Lisa N Umeh Esther S Moon Abdoul Madjid Kone Abigail Banson Cassandra Federman Edward Ramos Eyitope Ola Awoyemi Boubini Jones Wonni Eric Otto Guttu Maskalo Alexandra Ogando Velez Sheldon Rankine Camelita Thrift Chiamaka Ekwunazu Derek Scholes LakshmiGayathri Chirumamilla Mohd Elmugtaba Ibrahim Brianna Mitchell Jillian Ross Julencia Curtis Rachel Kim Chandler Gilliard Joseph Mathew Adeyinka Laiyemo Angesum Kibreab Edward Lee Zaki Sherif Babak Shokrani Farshad Aduli Hassan Brim | 2021 | World Journal of Clinical Cases2021，9，28： | 0 |
