L., SWEATMAN, W. M., HONG, M., ANZIANO, P., & DEVAULT, K. (2017). EFFECTS OF PEER MENTORING ON SELF-EFFICACY AND HOSPITAL READMISSION AFTER INPATIENT REHABILITATION OF INDIVIDUALS WITH SPINAL CORD INJURY: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL. ARCHIVES OF PHYSICAL MEDICINE AND REHABILITATION, 98(8), 1526- 1534. Objective. To investigate the effect of intensive peer mentoring on patient-reported outcomes of self-efficacy and unplanned hospital readmissions for persons with spinal cord injury/disease (SCI/D) within the first 6 months after discharge from inpatient rehabilitation. Design. Randomized controlled trial. Setting. Nonprofit inpatient rehabilitation hospital specializing in care of persons with SCI/D and brain injury. Participants. Patients (N=158) admitted to the SCI/D rehabilitation program whose discharge location was a community setting. Participants (51% with paraplegia and 49% with tetraplegia) were 73% white and 77% men, with a mean age of 38 years. Interventions. Participants in the experimental group received initial consult/introduction with a peer support program liaison and were assigned a peer mentor, who met with the participant weekly throughout the inpatient stay and made weekly contact by phone, e-mail, or in person for 90 days postdischarge. Participants also were encouraged to participate in regularly scheduled peer support activities. Nonexperimental group participants were introduced to peer support and provided services only on request.

  • MSC Response to the Review of the Clinical Excellence Award Scheme the Medical Schools Council the Medical Schools Council Repre
    Chair Professor Tony Weetman MD DSc FRCP FMedSci Executive Director Dr Katie Petty-Saphon MSC Response to the Review of the Clinical Excellence Award Scheme The Medical Schools Council The Medical Schools Council represents the interests and ambitions of the UK’s 32 Medical Schools as they relate to the generation of national health, wealth and knowledge through biomedical research and the profession of medicine. As an organisation it occupies a unique position embracing medical undergraduate education, the entirety of health related research and a critical interface with the health service. This response has been seen and agreed by all 32 member Medical Schools. Response The Medical Schools Council believes that the removal of national clinical excellence awards would, at a stroke, destroy the future clinical leadership of the UK and inflict potentially terminal damage upon both the provision of cutting edge patient care and upon the UK’s health economy. In its submission the MSC wishes to focus on the particular issues surrounding clinical academics. There is clear evidence that basic and clinical research lead to improved patient care and that such research also links directly to wealth gain through the pharmaceutical and related industries. Clinical academics play a crucial role at the fulcrum of the triangular relationship between the NHS, the University sector and the Pharmaceutical/Medical Devices industry. If clinical excellence awards were withdrawn a brain drain would result, with a disastrous impact on R & D, on innovation in the NHS and on the UK’s economy. The national CEA scheme is critical to the recruitment and retention of senior clinical academic and other senior clinical staff in the UK’s clinical academic centres.

    MEETING SUMMARY Duke University JB Duke Hotel, Ballroom ABC, 230 Science Dr, Durham, North Carolina, USA March 26-27, 2018 Hosted by the Global Genomic Medicine Collaborative (G2MC) Vision for success: A GLOBAL PLATFORM FOR TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH (COHORT TO BEDSIDE AND COHORT TO BENCH), INFORMING BIOLOGICAL/GENETIC BASIS FOR DISEASE AND IMPACT ON CLINICAL CARE AND POPULATION HEALTH EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The International Cohorts Summit, hosted by the Global Genomic Medicine Collaborative (G2MC, https://g2mc.org/) at Duke University in Durham, NC on March 26-27, 2018, and sponsored by All of Us, National Institutes of Health, Medical Research Council, and Wellcome Trust, was conceived in 2015 by NIH and endorsed in June 2016 by the Heads of International Research Organizations (HIROs). The vision for success from this meeting and future collaborations is the creation of a global platform for translational research (cohort to bedside and cohort to bench), informing biological/genetic basis for disease and impact on clinical care and population health. Cohorts represented at the Summit were selected based on 4 criteria: having 100K participants or more, not being disease-specific, having available biospecimens, and having at least the potential for longitudinal follow-up of participants. Approximately 100 investigators from 24 countries representing 60 cohort studies attended and represented greater than 25 million people at their current sizes and greater than 36 million based on future recruitment targets, some with available data from the 1960s. From a pre-meeting survey, the majority of the represented cohorts have samples available, including DNA and genotyping, and almost half have whole genomic/exome sequencing data on at least some samples.

  • An Examination of Fatal Shootings of Unarmed Black People by Police
    Armed and Dangerous? An Examination of Fatal Shootings of Unarmed Black People by Police by Cassandra Chaney, Ph.D. [email protected] Associate Professor, College of Human Sciences and Education, School of Social Work, Department of Child and Family Studies, Louisiana State University & Ray V. Robertson, Ph.D. [email protected] Associate Professor of Sociology, Department of Sociology and Criminal Justice, Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University Abstract Given the increasing number of unarmed Black men murdered by members of law enforcement, specifically the deaths of 78 Black unarmed males and females between 1999 and 2015, this study will examine whether the policemen involved in these murders were indicted. Through the use of Critical Race Theory (CRT), the following three questions were foundational to this study: (1) How does the murder of unarmed Black people by police support White Supremacy? (2) What do non-indictments of police suggest about the lives of unarmed Black people? (3) How does the murder of unarmed Black people escalate individual, familial, and communal mistrust of police? Content analysis of the data revealed the murder of unarmed Blacks supports White Supremacy by advancing the racist legacy of citizen slave patrols that were initiated during slavery, assumes that Blacks are dangerous, sub-human, and inherently criminal, and results in little personal accountability for Black murder among members of law enforcement. In general, officers are not indicted for the murder of Blacks, which suggests the lives of Blacks have no value. Ultimately, the death of unarmed Black people greatly undermines the confidence members of this group have in police and increases the likelihood they will regard law enforcement as a threat to their individual, family, and communal safety.
