These methods can be used by HCPs without the requirement for prior training in usability science, and by clinical centres without significant technical requirements.

We identified several qualitative methodologies that could be used for EHR evaluation. These include 1 Tools for user centred design shadowing and autoethnography, semi-structured interviews and questionnaires 2 Tools for summative testing card sort and reverse card sort, retrospective think aloud protocol, wireframing, screenshot testing and heat maps CONCLUSION High-yield, low-fidelity tools can be used to engage HCPs with the process of ophthalmology EHR design, implementation and evaluation. These methods can be used by HCPs without the requirement for prior training in usability science, and by clinical centres without significant technical requirements.In response to a rapid increase in drug development activity during the past two decades, the Food and Drug Administration's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research launched a multi-year effort in 2017 to modernize the program by which new drug products are regulated, known as the New Drugs Regulatory Program. Following a detailed analysis of FDA activities in new drug development, premarket review, and postmarket monitoring, the Office of New Drugs was restructured to therapeutically align its clinical offices and to add new cross-functional offices for regulatory support. An interdisciplinary review process for new drug and biologics applications was rolled out to reduce redundancy and produce review documents that effectively communicate the scientific basis for the regulatory decision. The investigational new drug (IND) review process was also streamlined. During the next 2 years, the modernization initiative will seek to attract and retain new scientific and regulatory staff, improve postmarket safety monitoring, increase efficiency of drug review via technology-enabled workflows, and standardize the capture and use of scientific data to inform future regulatory decisions. The modernization effort will position the New Drugs Regulatory Program to continually improve and adapt to innovations in science, technology, and drug development.The availability of intraoperative multimedia recording is increasing. Considering the growing call for physicians' accountability, it is inevitable that multimedia will play an important role in aiding quality control by improving the adequacy of operative reporting. However, the perspectives of medical professionals on this matter are poorly known. In this cross-disciplinary survey, we aimed to investigate the current viewpoints concerning the use of multimedia recording in the operating room. We conducted an electronic survey among all affiliated members of the Association of Surgeons of the Netherlands, the Dutch Urological Association and the Dutch Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology containing questions regarding current use of intraoperative recording and the level of likelihood or objection for certain scenarios. The response rate was 27.8%. The survey encompasses 370 (54.5%) surgeons, 71 (10.5%) urologists, 80 (11.8%) gynecologists, and 158 (23.3%) residents in training. 52.4% of respondents feel that the currently used operative report is insufficient for future quality requirements. 58.5% think it is unlikely they would behave differently during surgery when intra-operative video recording is applied. 82.8% think it is unlikely that their surgical methods would be altered. 63.8% of respondents preferred only video registration when intraoperative recording is implemented. The majority of respondents agree that the current method of operative reporting is insufficient for future quality requirements. There is support for intraoperative video recording, however, legal transparency is needed before either intraoperative video or audio recording could be implemented to protect not only the patients, but also the healthcare providers.The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorders, including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). IBD results from a complex interplay between environmental, microbial, and genetic factors to create an abnormal immunological response leading to intestinal inflammation. Many pathways driving inflammation have been described, and different pathways may predominate in an individual patient. The interleukin (IL)-23 pathway plays a key role in IBD pathogenesis through promoting a pathological Th17 response. Targeting IL-23 is effective in the treatment of IBD. Ustekinumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting the shared p40 subunit of IL-12/23, is approved for treatment of moderate-to-severe CD and UC. Specific IL-23p19 antagonists are in development and promising results from phase II trials of mirikizumab and risankizumab underscore the potential for this class of treatment. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms of action and the evidence from clinical trials supporting the efficacy and safety of different IL-23 antagonists for IBD.

To characterize differences in patient demographics and outcomes by surgeon experience in a cohort of patients undergoing adult spinal deformity surgery.

Patients undergoing degenerative spinal deformity were included. Patients whose surgeons graduated from fellowship ≤ 5years prior to surgery versus > 5years were compared. Multivariable linear and logistic regression, controlling for age, sex, comorbidity burden, number of segments fused, blood loss and operative time were used to evaluate differences in outcomes. Characteristics of operative invasiveness were plotted against surgeons' level of experience, and trends in these measures were assessed with univariate linear regression.

Three-hundred sixty-three patients were included. 147 patients' surgeons had ≤ 5years of experience. Patient demographics were evenly matched. Patients with junior surgeons had more pre-existing medical complications, and senior surgeons were less likely to take care of patients with Medicare/Medicaid (p < 0.001). Junior surgeons were more likely to operate on non-elective patients (p < 0.001). Patients of junior surgeons received larger fusions (9.6 vs. buy Glesatinib 7.6 segments fused, p < 0.001). There were no differences in complication rates or death. Patients of junior surgeons had longer overall length of stays (p = 0.037) and higher rates of nonhome discharge (OR 2.0, p < 0.001), 30- and 90-day (p < 0.005) ED visits, and higher costs (+ $8548, 95% CI $1596 to $15,502; p = 0.016).

Junior surgeons tend to perform more extensive deformity operations on more medically complex patients compared to senior surgeons, associated with higher costs and more resource utilization than senior surgeons.
