?????? NEW PUBLICATION ALERT ?????? Have a look at this new review paper on the current identification strategies and future perspectives for the assessment of lid wiper epitheliopathy (LWE), co-authored by CORE clinical scientist Daddi Fadel in collaboration with researchers from the School of Optometry at GD Goenka University and the Universidade do Minho. They analyzed 67 studies to get a better understanding of LWE's diagnostic criteria, to uncover challenges in current grading systems and to discuss the need for more objective assessment methods. Key insights: ? LWE can be linked to tear film abnormalities and eyelid margin issues, complicating diagnosis. ? There’s a pressing need for standardized, sensitive diagnostic tools to improve patient outcomes.

#optometrists, if you aren't reading the 4 part series on interpreting medical research from?Review of Optometry, you are missing out. ?? The series is a deep dive into the terminology, methods, and statistics to know when attempting to understand and apply research studies. ?? I especially enjoyed the subsections "Questions to Ask" and "A Journal Club Starter Pack" 1?? Part 1 is "The Nuts and Bolts" by Andrew D. Pucker, OD, PhD, FAAO Diplomate, FSLS, FBCLA: https://lnkd.in/g8TSzNaw 2?? Part 2 is "The Skeptical Eye" by Andrew Gurwood, OD and Stanley Hatch: https://lnkd.in/gdNZAWsC ?? Good job! Keep pressing our #optometry colleagues to practice #evidencebasedmedicine I'm looking forward to the final two editions. #2020habits #MedicalEyeCare #OptometricPractice #PatientCare #EvidenceBasedOptometry #VisionCare #EyeHealth #OptometricEducation #PracticeGrowth #CollaborativeCare #optometrist #optometrists #eye #eyecare #vision #publichealth

Not enough words to describe how deeply I understand this experience, down to my own appendix being minutes away from rupture after 9 hours in the ER, pleading for someone to just listen to me, nearly 15 years ago. What’s so disheartening is how little has changed. We need to train health care practitioners to listen first and leave their judgements at the door. I have conducted so many healthcare disparities studies where physicians have openly told me they make judgements about their patients as human beings before they make clinical decisions. Let’s start with, we are ALL human and quality healthcare should be a right and not a privilege. Who is ready to stop commenting on it and start doing something about it like this brave physician? #healthcaredisparities #patientcentric #health #marketresearch #pharmaceuticals

It's very interesting to learn that Optometry Australia has established an 'Advanced Practice Recognition' program to recognise and credential #optometrists with demonstrated expertise in certain clinical areas. Starting with #glaucoma management, I can see this being a particularly valuable tool independents differentiating through advanced clinical services. https://lnkd.in/gAdd6iiq

Proud of the excellent work by our Satyan Lakshminrusimha for his incisive look at funds flow from a chair’s perspective. His findings have helped to inform our own administration and others around the nation about what works and what doesn’t. Some context (and more details below in the journal article): UC Davis Health implemented an aligned funds flow model in July 2021 to create a mission-aligned model in which all departments had financial margins to optimize recruitment, retention, research, and teaching. Results: Total collections for departments increased by 4% in the first year, 0.2% in the second year, and 11.3% in the third year of funds flow. Total productivity increased by 4.9% during the first year, 3.6% during the second year, and 8.4% during the third year.?

Thank you so much NeusMENT for inviting me to deliver a talk for Women Neurosurgeons. I hope my experience and view will be helpful for other women neurosurgeons and for medical students who wish to join neurosurgery! Some tips and tricks might get helpful for male colleagues and juniors as well. Neurosurgery is difficult but that doesn't mean it is impossible to become a neurosurgeon! Don't let anyone decide your future Neurosurgeons are healers,inventors and researchers and not employees. They need the right environment to express their potentials and to make progress You are not supposed to work in a toxic environment! It will cast a negative impact in your career and you would never be able to express your full potential! please visit the NEWS website https://newsneuro.xyz I've finally launched NEWS Membership on high demand. It's free to join. If you are a neurosurgeon , click here to join: https://lnkd.in/gqAiY2ZG __________ If you are a medical student, please click here to join https://lnkd.in/gCSsCWCE __________

Is your Academic Medical Center considering #FundsFlow - Detailed impact of funds flow on UC Davis Health in @acdaemic medicine journal - both positive and negative, improvement in mission, individual productivity and physician salaries and financial impact on the health system - using Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) and @Clinical Practice Solutions Center benchmarks - with Susan Murin, Joseph Galante, Zishan Mustafa, Noel Sousa, Stanley Chen, Debbie Aizenberg, Elizabeth Morris, and David Lubarsky

Satyan Lakshminrusimha-- thanks for the post and work you are doing in this area. Can all missions of an academic medical center align? ....In this era of diminishing cash flows as costs increase and traditional revenue streams decrease? Can clinical care, education, research, and healthcare administration/operations truly align for common missions and funds flow sustainability? You even highlight that this model may not be sustainable at UC Davis; "the implementation of funds flow had a negative fiscal effect on the academic medical center." Thoughts? #UsingWhatWeHaveBetter

A Clinical Research Grant helps ENT surgeons build capacity for research. Applicants are often new to applying for research funding, so we have made the process as simple as possible. We asked Alumni Paul Paddle about his experience in applying for the award. "I honestly thought (rightly or wrongly), that I had a greater chance of success competing against other ENT research projects, as opposed to more general medical research grants," says Paul, on applying for the grant. He makes a good point: overall, the Foundation's Award Round success rate is 27%. Did the grant work as Paul intended? "Yes absolutely," says Paul "It was a good introduction to the rigours of applying for a formal competitive grant, including the logistics of dealing with an administrating institution, working to a budget and timeline." Paul has since gone on to build capacity to undertake further paediatric sleep research, and secured funding with a Conjoint Grant (see our recent posts for details). Find out more about Paul's and other Clinical Research Grant projects on our website. Applications close 5pm AEST on 3rd September 2024. Apply now via our Applications Portal. https://lnkd.in/gXXtKpJ4 #Otolaryngology #OHNS #EarNoseThroat #ENT #Paediatrics #Research #MedicalResearch #ClinicalResearch #ResearchTranslation #SleepResearch #OSA #Sleep #RuralHealth #RegionalHealth #Oximetry
