TL;DR: Spherical CL power does not appear to affect measurements of optic nerve head (ONH) parameters using OCT, and there was no systematic effect of CL power on these parameters.

TL;DR: In the Strategies to Reduce Injuries and Develop Confidence in Elders (STRIDE) trial as mentioned in this paper, the authors present ways to estimate the ascertainment bias for a time-to-event outcome, and discuss its impact on the overall power of a trial vs changing of the outcome definition to a more stringent unbiased definition that restricts attention to measurements less subject to potentially differential assessment.

TL;DR: This survey indicates that patients who have undergone weight loss surgery can achieve excellent weight loss and sustain a normal BMI with regular exercise habits that are distinct from those of younger individuals who are not obese.

TL;DR: Patients with diabetes in the ICU have experienced a disproportionate reduction in mortality that is not explained by glucose control, and potential explanations include improved cardiovascular risk management or advances in therapies for diseases commonly affecting patients with diabetes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated an interprofessional code response team intervention to manage agitation in the ED with the goal of decreasing physical restraint use, and the results indicated that investment in organizational change, along with interprofessional collaboration during the management of agitated patients, can lead to sustained reductions in the use of an invasive and potentially harmful measure on patients.
