TL;DR: An assessment framework is used to quantify engagement with and uptake of collaborative methodology in 17 projects in a quality improvement collaborative in North West London and highlights the need to open the ‘black box’ both while the work is in progress to allow generative learning, and for the purposes of evaluation.

TL;DR: Predicting whether patients are likely to have a positive outcome following treatment at entry might allow suitable modification of scheduled treatment, possibly resulting in improvements in outcomes.

TL;DR: Hospital trusts are required to develop quality indicators and collate detailed feedback from patients in addition to the annual inpatient survey to measure these and this analysis demonstrates a statistical technique that can help to identify such priority areas by showing those aspects of care most strongly associated with the overall rating of care.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the stimulus for activation and migration of neutrophils is transient; this is an important factor if neutrophil release products play a role in cell damage after coronary occlusion.

TL;DR: This study does not support the concept that free radicals play a significant role in the development of diabetic vascular disease.
