Moreover, patients who had two or more social needs were those willing to receive referrals after discharge. The SINCERE is a valid and reliable tool for measuring social needs for health, and should be considered as a screening option for practice interventions seeking to address social needs.In 2015, a dust explosion occurred in New Taipei Water Park in Taiwan, and 499 casualties was appallingly high. In fact, the government spent 208 min of response time from receiving calls for emergency to sending the last wounded person to hospital. To stop a similar accident happening again, a well-prepared strategy, with an aim to reduce the rescue time, to respond to such an emergency is necessary. This study mainly focuses on the execution of mass casualty operations while both efficiency and quality of care are considered. We not only find that there is only 1 h or less to allocate rescue resources after a Burn Mass Casualty Incident (BMCI) happens but also shorten the response time. It is our first time to use a special method, called Critical Path Method (CPM), to analyze the rescue process. But before CPM is created, the benefit of available resources should be maximized, and timely, safe, and effective emergency medical services should be provided. With CPM, the interrelations of every activity can be visualized, and the most time-consuming activity can be found by this efficient time management. If the relationship between the predecessors and its successors operations of the most time-consuming activity item is reshaped, BMCI prehospital scheduling management becomes more effective based on its efficiency and quality of care.Trauma- (and violence-) informed care (T(V)IC) has emerged as an important practice approach across a spectrum of care settings; however how to measure its implementation and impact has not been well-examined. The purpose of this scoping review is to describe the nature and extent of available measures of T(V)IC, including the cross-cutting concepts of vicarious trauma and implicit bias. Using multiple search strategies, including searches conducted by a professional librarian from database inception to Summer 2020, 1074 articles were retrieved and independently screened for eligibility by two team members. A total of 228 were reviewed in full text, yielding 13 measures that met pre-defined inclusion criteria 1) full-text available in English; 2) describes the initial development and validation of a measure, that 3) is intended to be used to evaluate T(V)IC. A related review of vicarious trauma measures yielded two that are predominant in this literature. Among the 13 measures identified, there was significant diversity in what aspects of T(V)IC are assessed, with a clear emphasis on "knowledge" and "safety", and less on "collaboration/choice" and "strengths-based" concepts. The items and measures are roughly split in terms of assessing individual-level knowledge, attitudes and practices, and organizational policies and protocols. Few measures examine structural factors, including racism, misogyny, poverty and other inequities, and their impact on people's lives. We conclude that existing measures do not generally cover the full potential range of the T(V)IC, and that those seeking such a measure would need to adapt and/or combine two or more existing tools.In compromised bone conditions such as osteoporosis, developments of the implant surface are necessary to secure the stability of implants. This study investigated the effect of the surface porous titanium structure (PS) on the osseointegration of implants in osteoporotic bone. Bilateral ovariectomy (OVX) was performed in 4 female beagle dogs to induce osteoporosis for 32 wk. Success of induction was based on the evaluation of bone mineral density by Hounsfield units (HU) in computed tomography images. Posterior teeth in both mandibles were extracted 1 wk after OVX, and a total of 30 implants (15 implants in each group) were placed after 32 wk of osteoporosis induction. The control group implant underwent resorbable blast media (RBM) surface treatment, whereas the test group underwent RBM surface treatment in the coronal two-thirds and a PS added to the apical 3-mm portion. HU values in the mandibular trabecular bone, lumbar, and femoral head significantly decreased 32 wk after OVX, confirming osteoporotic condition after induction. Resonance frequency analysis and removal torque test showed comparable values between the 2 groups at 4 wk after implant placement. [https://www.selleckchem.com/ selleck products] The surface topography of the implant after removal showed hard tissue integration at the PS in the test group. Bone-to-implant contact length was greater in the apical portion of the test group, although statistical significance was not found between the groups. Interthread bone area in the apical portion of the test group showed a significant increase compared to the control group (control 0.059 ± 0.041 mm2, test 0.121 ± 0.060 mm2, P = 0.028) with the histological feature of bone ingrowth at the PS. The findings of the study demonstrated that the surface PS could improve osteoconductivity in the osteoporotic trabecular bone by bone ingrowth at the pore space, thereby enhancing the osseointegration and stability of the implants.<br /><br /> In China, stroke center certification was launched in 2015, but little is known about its impact on intravenous thrombolysis. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of stroke center certification on the use of intravenous thrombolysis during a five-year period in South China.<br /><br /> We retrospectively collected data regarding the use of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) in 21 cities of Guangdong from 2015 to 2020. The annual thrombolysis rate was defined as the number of patients who underwent intravenous rt-PA therapy divided by the number of those who had acute ischemic stroke within the same year. The density of stroke centers was calculated as the number of stroke centers divided by the corresponding residents. Spearman's correlation analysis was used to determine the correlations between the annual thrombolysis rates and the number/density of stroke centers. Paired <br /><br /> -test was used to compare differences in growth in annual thrombolysis rates before and after having stroke centers.<br /><br /> From 2015 to 2020, the annual rt-PA thrombolysis rates of Guangdong increased from 1.
