Person centred approaches to rehabilitation are promoted as an ethical means of addressing paternalistic power relations in clinician dominated medical encounters and improving outcomes. However, they fail to account for the complex nature of power. We sought alternative ways to explain the use of power in health service provision. A poststructural discourse analysis using the view of power offered by Michel Foucault was undertaken. Foucault's concept of governmentality is useful to explain the way health services deploy technologies of power to achieve objectives of the state. Governmentality refers to not just political structures but all the strategies and procedures for directing human behaviour. Our investigation uncovered a web of strategic relationships operating that were both potentially productive and problematic and illuminate how client centred approaches in neurorehabilitation intertwines its subjects in strategic power relationships that involve webs of obligations and responsibilities. practice can be a tool for mastery of one over the other, and assist the client to achieve their desired ends, but also has the potential to marginalise others who are unable to shape themselves into the desired ideal client.Implications for rehabilitationThis analysis shows how power is subtle and productive in that it produces knowledge and roles for both clients and practitioners.It demonstrates how neurorehabilitation's disciplinary practices assist the client to achieve their recovery goals.It reveals how certain clients might be marginalised when they cannot shape themselves into the ideal rehabilitation client.As a final point we hope that by being aware of how power works in neurorehabilitation, practitioners can become aware of opportunities for challenging disciplinary practices that do not serve the best interest of the client.Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the predominant cause of dementia and a leading cause of death globally. With no cure or treatment to slow disease progression, AD-related healthcare costs are substantial and increase as the severity of the disease progresses. Given the complexity of this disease, including initial pathophysiological damage occurring decades before clinical manifestation, finding new impactful treatments for AD relies on highly innovative research and development. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/l-arginine-l-glutamate.html However, such sizable and sustained investments bring into question whether conventional value assessment models are fit for this purpose. In this article, we examine the importance and challenges of assimilating the perspectives of varied stakeholders, including patients, caregivers, health systems, payers, and society at large, into a comprehensive value assessment model that may be well suited for a breakthrough treatment for AD.Performance measurement leads to quality improvement, because performance measurement can identify areas of vulnerability to guide quality improvement activities. Recommendations from empirical institutional review board (IRB) performance measurement data on research approval criteria, expedited review protocols, exempt protocols, and IRB continuing review requirements published over the past 10 years are reviewed here to improve the quality and efficiency of IRBs. Implementation of these recommendations should result in improvements that can be evaluated by follow-up performance measurements.Cognitive decline is a rapidly increasing public health concern. A healthy diet has potential in preserving brain and maintaining cognitive health. This systematic review was designed to evaluate the relationship between Mediterranean-DASH diet intervention for neurodegenerative delay (MIND) diet and cognitive functioning in older adults. PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar databases were searched to extract original studies on humans published until July 2020, without date restrictions. Articles that evaluated the association between MIND diet and cognitive performance in older adults were included. Duplicated and irrelevant studies were screened out and data were obtained through critical analysis. Quality of the articles and risk of bias was assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa and Cochrane Collaboration's quality assessment tools. Of the 135 studies retrieved, 13 articles (9 cohort, 3 cross-sectional, and 1 RCT studies) were included in the final review. All of the included studies indicated that adherence to the MIND diet was positively associated with specific domains, but not all, of cognition and global cognitive function (78% of the studies) in older adults. MIND diet was superior to other plant-rich diets including Mediterranean, Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, Pro-Vegetarian and Baltic Sea diets, for improving cognition. Adherence to the MIND diet may possibly be associated with an improved cognitive function in older adults. MIND diet may be superior to other plant-rich diets for improving cognition. Esophageal cancer (EC) makes up 3.2% of all cancers but ranks sixth among cancer-related deaths worldwide. This real-world analysis determined the use of PD-1/PD-L1 (PD[L]1) inhibitors in EC patients after receiving first-line therapy. Newly diagnosed EC patients initiating first-line treatment were identified in the IBM MarketScan administrative claims databases during the study period (1 May 2015 to 31 October 2020) using ICD-9/ICD-10 codes. Patients were assigned to either the chemotherapy only, radiation only, chemotherapy plus radiation (chemoradiation), or esophageal transhiatal/transthoracic surgery cohorts. 7276 EC patients started first-line therapy (chemotherapy only = 2502, radiation only = 3355, chemoradiation = 1180, surgery = 239). The average age at diagnosis was 62 years and 23% were female. The median time from start of first-line therapy to utilization of a PD(L)1 inhibitor was 259 days. Pembrolizumab (72%) was the most frequently used PD(L)1 inhibitor across the three cohorts, followed by nivolumab (25%). Furthermore, the number of patients receiving a PD(L)1 inhibitor increased each year with the majority (73%) of use occurring between 2018 and 2020. Findings from this real-world study suggest that PD(L)1 inhibitors are increasingly used after first-line therapies in EC, especially among patients initially receiving chemotherapy only. New immunological therapies such as PD(L)1 inhibitors hold great promise for patients with solid tumors. A clearer understanding of their real-world utilization is critical.
