The Hypnotic Induction Profile (HIP) is a standardized assessment of hypnotizability featuring a validated 0-10 scoring system, that does not factor in posthypnotic amnesia. Using confirmatory factor analyses (CFA), we compared the 10-point scoring system with a new 12-point system that includes the posthypnotic amnesia item in independent samples of individuals with fibromyalgia (n = 98) and healthy adults (n = 97). Additionally, we explored associations of the two scoring systems with measures of hypnotic phenomena. CFA results indicate that the 12-point scoring system is a good fit for the 1-factor model of hypnotizability. Posthypnotic amnesia loaded highly on the model in the fibromyalgia sample, and moderately on the model in healthy adults. Furthermore, the 12-point scoring system correlated significantly with measures of hypnotic phenomena. We conclude that the 12-point scoring system is psychometrically equivalent yet conceptually more comprehensive than the 10-point scoring system.

The purpose of this study was to compare knowledge about human papillomavirus (HPV) and HPV vaccine, college student's beliefs toward HPV, and HPV vaccine uptake between US and international college students studying in the US.

The study was conducted using a sample (N = 588) of college students from a university in the South Central US.

Study measures was derived from previously validated measures. Data were collected via an online survey using Qualtrics.

Significant differences were found in HPV awareness, HPV vaccine awareness, and HPV vaccine uptake between US and international college students.

This study showed existing disparities between US and international college students regarding HPV and HPV vaccine awareness, and HPV vaccine uptake. College health centers can play a crucial role in raising awareness of HPV and HPV vaccination rates by organizing various intervention programs to reduce these disparities.

Studies evaluating the impact of telemedicine modalities on downstream office visits have demonstrated mixed results. Introduction We evaluated insurance claims of a large commercial payer, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan (BCBSM), to assess the frequency of follow-up visits following encounters initiated via telemedicine versus in-person. Materials and Methods We used the BCBSM claim-level data set (2011-2017) to assess encounters in the following places of service hospital outpatient, doctor's office, patient's home, or psychiatric daycare facility. We identified the primary diagnostic category for 30-day episodes of care using clinical classifications software (CCS) and multilevel clinical classifications software (ML-CCS). Our intervention group consisted of episodes initiated via telemedicine; our control group consisted of episodes initiated in-person. Our primary outcome was the percentage of 30-day episodes with a related visit (encounters occurring within the same period and CCS categories) across CCS categories. Our secondary outcome was the mean related visit rate. Results The final data set included 4,982,456 patients and 68,148,070 claims, of which 53,853 were telemedicine related. Many episodes did not have related visits (the mean related visit rate was 16%). Telemedicine visits had a higher frequency of related visits across all CCS categories. Cyclosporin A clinical trial Discussion Episodes of care initiated via telemedicine more frequently generate related visits within a 30-day period. This increased health care utilization could represent excessive care or could reflect expanded access to care. Conclusion Further research should explore the cause of this increased utilization and potential unintended consequences.

To investigate management and implementation of the "awakening and breathing trials, choice of drugs, delirium management, and early exercise/mobility" (ABCDE) bundle in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in southwestern China.

A self-designed questionnaire for determining implementation of the ABCDE bundle was distributed to healthcare professionals in the PICU. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze results.

A total of 270 questionnaires were collected. There was no significant difference in the awareness of the ABCDE bundle rate among Sichuan, Guizhou, and Yunnan workers. Only dynamic adjustment of drug dose accounted for more than half (55.5%) of "frequent implementation" and "general implementation", followed by implementation of sedation assessment, pain assessment, and spontaneous breathing trials (46.4%, 39.3%, and 35.6%, respectively). A total of 80.4% of healthcare professionals never performed screening of delirium. Multivariate analysis showed that the healthcare professionals' scores of ABCDE bundle behavior significantly differed regarding awareness of the ABCDE bundle, years of work at the hospital, the region of hospitals, and occupational category.

Implementation of the ABCDE bundle in the PICU in southwestern China is not sufficient. Existing problems need to be identified and a standardized sedation and analgesia management model needs to be established.
