TL;DR: Among persons at high risk for type 2 diabetes not selected for vitamin D insufficiency, vitamin D3 supplementation at a dose of 4000 IU per day did not result in a significantly lower risk of diabetes than placebo.
Abstract: Background Observational studies support an association between a low blood 25-hydroxyvitamin D level and the risk of type 2 diabetes. However, whether vitamin D supplementation lowers the...

TL;DR: In this article, a review provides background on the definition of professional education, evidence to support IPE, the need for IPE and student competencies and objectives, barriers to IPE implementation, and elements critical for successfully implementing it.
Abstract: Interprofessional education (IPE) is an important step in advancing health professional education for many years and has been endorsed by the Institute of Medicine as a mechanism to improve the overall quality of health care. IPE has also become an area of focus for the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP), with several groups, including these authors from the AACP Interprofessional Education Task Force, working on developing resources to promote and support IPE planning and development. This review provides background on the definition of IPE, evidence to support IPE, the need for IPE, student competencies and objectives for IPE, barriers to implementation of IPE, and elements critical for successfully implementing IPE.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In the setting of acute oliguria a diagnosis of potentially reversible prerenal azotemia is likely with urine osmolality greater than 500 mosm/kg H2O, urine sodium concentration less than 20 meq/litre, urine/plasma urea nitrogen ratio greater than 8, and urine/ plasma creatinine ratio less than 40.
Abstract: A prospective analysis of the value of urinary diagnostic indices in ascertaining the cause of acute renal failure was undertaken. Our results show that in the setting of acute oliguria a diagnosis of potentially reversible prerenal azotemia is likely with urine osmolality greater than 500 mosm/kg H2O, urine sodium concentration less than 20 meq/litre, urine/plasma urea nitrogen ratio greater than 8, and urine/plasma creatinine ratio greater than 40. Conversely, a urine osmolality less than 350 mosm/kg, urine sodium concentration greater than 40 meq/liter, urine/plasma urea nitrogen ratio less than 3, and urine/plasma creatinine ratio less than 20 suggest acute tubular necrosis. A significant number of oliguric patients will not have urinary indices that fall within these guidelines. In this setting, urine sodium concentration divided by the urine-to-plasma creatinine ratio (the renal failure index) and the fractional excretion of filtered sodium provide a reliable means of differentiating reversible prerenal azotemia from acute tubular necrosis.
