Degree of decrease in 137Cs during preservation and cooking of tofu demonstrated in this study will be useful for exposure assessment of 137Cs through oral intake of contaminated soybeans after processing and cooking.Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global public health emergency. COVID-19 is most well known for affecting the respiratory system, although it can also result in several extrapulmonary manifestations. Limited literature is available regarding rhabdomyolysis in COVID-19. We report four cases of rhabdomyolysis in COVID-19 patients. High index of suspicion is required for the appropriate clinical scenario to recognize this life-threatening situation so that complications can be avoided.Background Readmission and length of stay (LOS) are two hospital-level metrics commonly used to assess the performance of hospitalist groups. Healthcare systems implement strategies aimed at reducing both. It is possible that tactics aimed at improving one measure in individual patients may adversely impact the other. Objective We sought to analyze the impact of length of stay on readmission risk in an inpatient general medical population to assess whether patients with a lower length of stays were readmitted more frequently to the hospital. Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of inpatient adult patients admitted to our institution between January 2016 and December 2019. We recorded demographic variables and the outcomes of LOS and 30-day readmission. We excluded patients who expired, left against medical advice, or were transferred to other hospitals. We performed both univariate and multivariate analyses. Results There were 91,723 patients included in the study of which 10,598 (11.6%) were readmitted. The geometric LOS for all patients was 5.37 days and was higher in readmitted patients (6.87 vs 5.18 days, respectively, p less then 0.001). Patients with hi
