At times in your life, you will be compelled to purchase what are often referred to as "big ticket items". Big ticket items would usually include things like cars, major household appliances, furniture, major vacation plans and expensive jewelry. Some people might...
In this Viewpoint Anthony Fauci and colleagues review the emergence of pathogenic human coronaviruses (SARS-Cov and MERS-CoV) as background for discussing a rapidly spreading novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) identified in 2019 in China and the public health strategies necessary to contain the threat.
In this Viewpoint, Gostin and colleagues review the emerging novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV) outbreak, discuss the public health benefits and risks of the Chinese government’s large city quarantines, and call for WHO leadership to coordinate a global coordinated response that could contain this and prevent similar future outbreaks.
This Viewpoint discusses the challenge prior medication authorization procedures presents for patients, physicians, and practices, and it proposes principles to guide “prior auth” reform, including focusing the procedures on the initial intended purpose of managing use of high-cost drugs that have equivalent lower-cost alternatives, protecting the continuity of medication for patients, and being transparent, efficient, and fair in their requirements.
In this Viewpoint, Berwick and colleagues review the evolution of prior authorization (“prior auth”) into a process where insurers deny previously approved coverage, patients receive surprise bills, and clinicians spend time appealing charges, and propose the introduction of legal provisions that make authorization decisions binding and absolve patients, clinicians, and organization of financial responsibility for previously approved services.
This Medical News feature discusses “street medicine,” the practice of caring for unsheltered homeless individuals.
Since 1999, after the SHOCK trial demonstrated a reduction in mortality with early myocardial revascularization in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated by cardiogenic shock, intensive care specialists and interventionalists have searched for additional ways to reduce the persistently high mortality, often in the range of 40% to 50%. After other reports demonstrated that intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) support failed to reduce mortality, the next step was development and evaluation... Читать дальше...
This study uses registry data to compare risk of in-hospital mortality and major bleeding among patients with acute coronary syndrome and cardiogenic shock managed with an intravascular microaxial left ventricular assist device (LVAD) vs intra-aortic balloon pulsation (IABP).
In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the alveolar-capillary units are disrupted, with lung endothelial and epithelial injury resulting in exudative pulmonary edema containing inflammatory mediators, solutes, proteins, and leukocytes. Treating pulmonary endothelial injury in ARDS may improve patient outcomes. Interferon β-1a (IFN-β-1a), a type 1 IFN, is one such treatment that may improve pulmonary endothelial barrier function. In addition to its myriad immunologic effects, IFN-β-1a upregulates... Читать дальше...
This randomized trial compares the effects of intravenous interferon β-1a vs placebo on 28-day mortality and on ventilator-free days in patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
In the Original Investigation titled “Effect of Postextubation High-Flow Nasal Oxygen With Noninvasive Ventilation vs High-Flow Nasal Oxygen Alone on Reintubation Among Patients at High Risk of Extubation Failure: A Randomized Clinical Trial” published in the October 15, 2019, issue of JAMA, one of the interventions was incompletely described in the Abstract and Methods section. It should have specified that patients received either high-flow nasal oxygen alone or high-flow nasal oxygen alternating with noninvasive ventilation.
The importance of addressing age-associated cognitive impairment cannot be overstated. The rising prevalence of cognitive impairment such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia, including Alzheimer disease, is becoming a worldwide concern. In this issue of JAMA, the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) concludes that “the current evidence is insufficient to assess the balance of benefits and harms of screening for cognitive impairment in older adults (I statement).” This recommendation...

Few areas of medicine have been as controversial and emotionally charged as breast cancer screening. Although mammography screening is a mainstay of preventive health care for women in the United States, the limitations of mammography for detecting breast cancer among women with mammographically dense breasts have received increasing attention from both advocacy groups and the medical community. Currently, legislation addressing communication regarding breast density is in place for a majority of states (38 states and the District of Columbia)... Читать дальше...
The number of US death certificates that cited alcohol involvement more than doubled from 1999 to 2017, according to a recent study by researchers at the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), part of the National Institutes of Health.
The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) fall short in ensuring that nutrition assistance programs for older adults meet their nutritional needs, according to a recent Government Accountability Office (GAO) report.
The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) recently issued the first Project BioShield contract to fund research to support the use of an existing antibiotic to treat inhalational anthrax exposure.
Since the English physician John Snow first mapped London’s cholera outbreak to a local water pump in the 1850s, it has been understood that a community’s design affects the health of its inhabitants. Present-day research continues to support a dominant role for place-based factors in generating health outcomes, but investment in local drivers of health has not kept pace with our understanding of their outsize influence on morbidity and mortality.
The relation between age and crime is significant socially. East emphasizes that most magistrates are not appointed until they have reached middle age; this preponderance of middle age and elderly judges, he feels, may be far from desirable in cases involving juvenile crime. East quotes a circular in 1936 which declared that, “apart from the obvious advantages attaching to quickness of hearing and of sight in a justice, there is the fact that as time goes on men and women justices are apt to lose...
