Abstract

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to characterize seasonal variation in US population-based blood pressure (BP) control and BP-related metrics and evaluate the association between outdoor temperature and BP control variation. METHODS: We queried electronic health records (EHRs) from 26 health systems, representing 21 states, to summarize BP metrics by quarters of 12-month periods from January 2017 to March 2020. Patients with at least one ambulatory visit during the measurement period and a hypertension diagnosis during the first 6 months or prior to the measurement period were included. Changes in BP control, BP improvement, medication intensification, average SBP reduction after medication intensification across quarters and association with outdoor temperature were analyzed using weighted generalized linear models with repeated measures. RESULTS: Among 1 818 041 people with hypertension, the majority were more than 65 years of age (52.2%), female (52.1%), white non-Hispanic (69.8%) and had stage 1/2 hypertension (64.8%). Overall, BP control and process metrics were highest in quarters 2 and 3, and lowest in quarters 1 and 4. Quarter 2 had the highest percentage of improved BP (31.95 ± 0.90%) and average SBP reduction after medication intensification (16 ± 0.23 mmHg). Quarter 3 had the highest percentage of BP controlled (62.25 ± 2.55%) and lowest with medication intensification (9.73 ± 0.60%). Results were largely consistent in adjusted models. Average temperature was associated with BP control metrics in unadjusted models, but associations were attenuated following adjustment. CONCLUSION: In this large, national, EHR-based study, BP control and BP-related process metrics improved during spring/summer months, but outdoor temperature was not associated with performance following adjustment for potential confounders.

Abstract

ObjectiveTo explore trends in blood pressure (BP) control before and during the COVID-19 pandemic.Patients and methodsHealth systems participating in the National Patient-Centered Clinical Research Network (PCORnet) Blood Pressure Control Laboratory Surveillance System responded to data queries, producing 9 BP control metrics. Averages of the BP control metrics (weighted by numbers of observations in each health system) were calculated and compared between two 1-year measurement periods (January 1, 2019, through December 31, 2019, and January 1, 2020, through December 31, 2020).ResultsAmong 1,770,547 hypertensive persons in 2019, BP control to

Abstract

Recurrent urinary tract infections (rUTI) are common in kidney transplant recipients (KTR) and are associated with multidrug resistance and increased morbidity/mortality. Novel antibiotic alternatives to reduce UTI recurrence are critically needed. We describe a case of rUTI due to extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) Klebsiella pneumoniae in a KTR that was treated successfully with 4 weeks of adjunctive intravenous bacteriophage therapy alone, without concomitant antibiotics, and with no recurrence in a year of follow-up.

Abstract

ObjectiveTo summarize typical situations of illegal addition， the illegal drug addition to ordinary food sold online that claimed to reduce weight was investigated， and its typical external characteristics analyzed.MethodsHigh throughput screening method and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry method that could detect multiple types of compounds simultaneously and quantification accurately were developed. The packaging information， typical ingredients， gifts， production enterprises， and other external typical characteristics of the product were sorted out， and the correlation between detection results and external typical characteristics was analyzed.Results22.09% （19/86） of the weight loss claiming samples purchased online added drugs， and the drug addition behavior showed characteristics such as escape addition， combination addition， and main and auxiliary addition. There were certain correlations between drug addition and external typical features. Typical ingredients， gifts， trial products， products involving OEM， and products labeled with liability insurance had a higher probability of drug addition.ConclusionTypical situations analysis and summarization that are prone to illegal addition ， and we expected to give consumers moderate consumption advices and provide precise guidance for the regulation of illegal added products.

71. Multiple Perspectives with Online EFL Practicum Technology Learning: Case Study on a Cloud

Author

Liu, Mei-Hui and Kleinsasser, Robert

Abstract

This yearlong study describes multiple stakeholders' perspectives of 20 preservice English as Foreign Language (EFL) teachers, 43 elementary school students, 2 online mentors, and a teacher-researcher during a technology professional development practicum on a cloud. The case study provides qualitative and quantitative data from stakeholders concerning technology integration after participating in online project-based EFL instruction. The participating stakeholders encountered affordances and challenges that enhanced their online learning and teaching repertoires and offered nuanced evidence within this online professional development community. The findings call for continuing exploration of online practicums in preservice (language) teacher education and further research documenting complexities of multiple stakeholders' technology professional development.
