The pharmacy marketplace has shifted considerably in recent years. The decline in job openings and stagnant growth in wages, along with public reports about adverse working conditions for some pharmacists, may have tarnished the optimism of young pharmacists toward the profession of pharmacy.

The objective of this study was to analyze the trend among graduating student pharmacists regarding their positivity toward a career in pharmacy.

Data for this study were extracted from the Graduating Student Survey that is maintained by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. This set of analyses focused on respondents' agreement with the statement "If I was starting my college career over again, I would choose to study pharmacy." Descriptive statistics are reported for this item across 2014 to 2021, and chi-square analyses were used to compare the trend in agreement rates across years and to compare responses between public and private colleges of pharmacy.

Survey response rates ranged from 71.1%-80.2n of this phenomenon is warranted.
Access to naloxone is a primary public health strategy to prevent opioid overdose death. Factors associated with primary medication nonadherence (PMN) to naloxone are underreported in the literature.

The objective of this study was to evaluate naloxone dispensing trends and PMN in a community pharmacy setting.

This retrospective analysis included patients of a community pharmacy chain in Maine and New Hampshire (57 and 29 pharmacy locations, respectively) for whom a claim for a naloxone prescription was billed between January 1, 2019, and July 31,2020.

A total of 2152 patients associated with 2606 naloxone claims were identified foranalysis. A majority of the subjects were women (52.7%) and the mean age of all the subjects was 46.4 ± 16.0 years. Of the 2606 naloxone claims, 565 prescriptions were returned to stock and never dispensed to the patient for a PMN rate of 21.7%. Gender and age were not associated with naloxone PMN. Factors associated with naloxone PMN were urban location [x
(1)= 12.49, P= oid overdose.
A notable portion of naloxone prescribed and filled in the community pharmacy setting was never obtained by the patient. Factors associated with PMN in this study included geographic location, use of a standing order, concomitant prescriptions for buprenorphine or opioid analgesic medications, and payment method. Underlying causes of PMN must be addressed (e.g., removing financial barriers and optimizing the use of standing orders) to increase naloxone access for persons at risk of opioid overdose.
Opioid misuse continues to be a major concern in the United States, affecting both adults and adolescents. Unfortunately, even legitimate prescription opioid misuse in adolescence increases the risk for misuse later in life. Although adolescence is a critical period for learning, little is known about adolescents' preferences for opioid safety education. One potential avenue for prescription opioid education is the use of serious games. Serious games can result in better health outcomes and understanding for adolescents and allow them to safely experience real-life scenarios. However, few studies have examined the use of serious games for adolescent opioid education.

This study explored adolescents' preferences for prescription opioid education and design of a serious game focused on opioid safety education.

A focus group guide was adapted from 2 statewide surveys about participants' perspectives on opioids. Recruitment packets with consent documents and an introduction to the study were sent home to elble scenarios should be incorporated.
When educating adolescents on prescription opioids, the use of presentations, particularly personal stories, brief and engaging websites and videos, or serious games with realistic and relatable scenarios should be incorporated.
The aim of this study was to describe changes in performance indicators such as length of stay [LOS] in the intensive care unit [ICU] and ventilation time, during the last six years in an attempt to identify associations between patient and systemic performance indicators, including the impact of nurse turnover.

A retrospective study of prospectively registered data (2013-2018). Propensity- score matching was performed to establish comparable groups.

Three Danish university hospitals.

The study included a total of 12,404 adult cardiac surgical patients registered in the Western Denmark Heart Registry. The cohort was divided into an "early" group (2013-2016) and a "late" group (2017-2018).

An analysis of dynamics in patient indicators and systemic performance indicators, including the impact from selected performance parameters and nurse turnover.

Comorbidity, calculated from the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation, and the mean age were stable in the study period. Strong predictors of long LOS in the ICU included postoperative use of inotropes, re-exploration surgery, high postoperative drainage, and the "late" time group. Time parameters (relative risks) were all significantly longer in the "late" time group" ventilation time 1.21 (1.05-1.39), length of stay ICU 1.28 (1.11-1.48), and in-hospital time 1.36 (1.19-1.57). ICU nurse turnover increased from four (2013-2014) to 52 (2017-2018).

No single patient factor, such as age or comorbidity, could explain the decrease in patient turnover in the ICU. In the same period, the turnover of ICU nurses increased. Patient turnover is complex and affected by a mix of patient and systemic performance factors.

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and types of interventions triggered during a drop of baseline near-infraredspectroscopy (NIRS) values in consecutive cardiac surgical patients.

A single-center, retrospective observational study.

A university-affiliated tertiary care center.

Three thousand three hundred two consecutive cardiac surgical patients from October 2016 to August 2017 Interventions None.

Of the 1,972 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 576 (29.2%) patients showed NIRS deviation of -20% from baseline. Interventions performed during the drop of baseline NIRS values were documented in 285 (14.4%) patients, with a total of 391 interventions. Three hundred fifteen (80%) interventions were triggered by a deviation in NIRS and concomitant changes in standard monitoring parameters. Seventy-six (20%) interventions were triggered by NIRS deviation alone, with no concomitant pathologic deviation in standard monitoring. A total of 279 (71%) interventions were performed on p be evaluated in a large prospective trial.
To determine the efficacy of diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in the characterization of mediastinal lymphadenopathy and the differentiation between malignant and benign lymph nodes (LNs).

a retrospective evaluation of 58 patients with mediastinal lymphadenopathy that underwent DWI and DTI with calculation of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), fractional anisotropy (FA), and mean diffusivity (MD) values of LNs. Final diagnosis was made by the histopathology and proved metastatic (n=21), lymphomatous (n=14), granulomatous (n=11) and reactive (n=12) LNs.

Malignant mediastinal LNs had remarkably lower ADC and MD; (p=0.001) and higher FA; (p=0.001) than in benign LNs. The threshold of ADC, MD, and FA at (1.48, 1.32×10
mm
/s), (1.31, 1.33×10
mm
/s), (0.62, 0.52) to differentiate malignant from benign LNs has AUC of (0.89, 0.94), (0.96, 0.95), (0.72, 0.82), accuracy of (87%, 86%), (89%, 86%), (70%, 72%) by both observers respectively. The threshold of ADC, MD, and FA at (1.47, 1.32×10
mm
/s), (1.31, 1.3×10
mm
/s), (0.62, 0.67) used to differentiate metastatic from reactive LNs revealed AUC of (0.90, 0.94), (0.96, 0.96), (0.73, 0.77), accuracy of (87%, 81%), (87%, 81%), (72%, 66%) by both observers respectively. The mean ADC and MD values of metastatic LNs were statistically significant (p=0.001) and (p=0.002, 0.02) respectively when compared with that of lymphoma. The threshold of ADC, and MD (0.94, 0.97×10
mm
/s) and (0.87, 0.91×10
mm
/s) used to differentiates metastatic from lymphomatous nodes revealed AUC of (0.90, 0.91), (0.81, 0.74), an accuracy of (85%, 91%), (71%, 71%), by both observers respectively. The inter-class correlation between two observers for all nodes for ADC, MD and FA was r= 0.931, 0.956 and 0.885 respectively.

Using ADC, MD, and FA can help in the characterization of mediastinal lymphadenopathy noninvasively.

To investigate the outcome of contact lens (CL) fitting in aphakic children following lensectomy for congenital cataract.

Retrospective data of 205 aphakic children who visited for CL fitting following lensectomy from 2008 to 2018 were collected. Data includes the demographic details, CL parameters in first and last visit, hours of CL wear, reason for discontinuation of CL, surgical procedures underwent and years of follow up.

205 (148 unilateral and 57 bilateral) aphakic children comprised of age group, < 1month (n=48), 1-3months (n=37), 3-6months (n=68), 6-12months (n=10), >12months (n=42). 173/205(84.39%) children were fitted with rigid gas permeable (RGP) and 32/205(15.6%) were fitted with soft CL at their first visit. 10 children had shifted to soft CL in their follow-up visits due to intolerance to RGP. 97/205(47.32%) children continued CL (55RGP, 42SCL) till the last follow-up for 2.17±2.36years and wore lens for 3.7±3.65h per day. Number of lenses replaced was 2 lenses (median) and maximumwing lensectomy depends on right CL choice and close follow-up.
This study witnessed successful contact lens wear in only half of the children. The visual rehabilitation following lensectomy depends on right CL choice and close follow-up.
This prospective study assessed the influence of wearing and then discontinuing orthokeratology (OK) lenses on retinal shape and peripheral refraction in myopic children.

Fifty-eight myopic children (age 8-12years) were equally divided into an OK group and a single vision spectacles (SVS) group. After 12months of OK, it was discontinued for 1month. Peripheral eye length (PEL), relative peripheral refraction (RPR), and corneal parameters were measured in the right eye on the nasal and temporal retinal sides at baseline, 6months, and 12months (13months in OK group) visits.

In the SVS group, faster elongation of the temporal side PEL made the eyes more asymmetric and prolate, developing a temporal pointed shape. In the OK group, the nasal retinal side PEL grew faster, the nasal RPR developed less hyperopic defocus, and the eye shape became more symmetric and less prolate. The central cornea became thinner and flattened, while the peripheral cornea became steeper. Changes in corneal thickness, relative peripheral corneal power, and K-values were no significant differences for the OK and SVS groups at 12months.
