Did The Horizontal Referral Policy in Indonesia Create Cost Savings?

Jurnal Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional, 2021
Background: In Indonesia, the referrals to hospitals by Primary Care Providers (PCPs) is high. In 2018, more than 15 per cent of patients visiting PCPs were referred to hospitals, while the cost for outpatient visits reached 51.2 trillion rupiahs.

B cell mechanobiology in health and disease: emerging techniques and insights into therapeutic responses

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
B cells sense external mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals through mechanotransduction. Understanding how malignant B cells respond to physical stimuli represents a groundbreaking area of research. This review examines the key mechano‐related molecules and pathways in B lymphocytes, highlights the most relevant techniques to ...

A comparative study of circulating tumor cell isolation and enumeration technologies in lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Lung cancer cells were spiked into donor blood to evaluate the recovery rates of the following circulating tumor cell (CTC) enrichment technologies: CellMag™, EasySep™, RosetteSep™, Parsortix® PR1, and Parsortix® Prototype systems. Each method's advantages and disadvantages are described.

Does patient selection account for the perceived cost savings in outpatient spine surgery? A meta-analysis of current evidence and analysis from an administrative database.

Journal of Neurosurgery : Spine, 2018
OBJECTIVEFrom 1994 to 2006 outpatient spinal surgery increased 5-fold. The perceived cost savings with outcomes comparable to or better than those achieved with inpatient admission for the same procedures are desirable in an era where health expenditures

Vehicle-to-Grid Fleet Service Provision considering Nonlinear Battery Behaviors [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
The surging adoption of electric vehicles (EV) calls for accurate and efficient approaches to coordinate with the power grid operation. By being responsive to distribution grid limits and time-varying electricity prices, EV charging stations can minimize their charging costs while aiding grid operation simultaneously.

Thermal proteome profiling and proteome analysis using high‐definition mass spectrometry demonstrate modulation of cholesterol biosynthesis by next‐generation galeterone analog VNPP433‐3β in castration‐resistant prostate cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Elevated level of cholesterol is positively correlated to prostate cancer development and disease severity. Cholesterol‐lowering drugs, such as statins, are demonstrated to inhibit prostate cancer. VNPP433‐3β interrupts multiple signaling and metabolic pathways, including cholesterol biosynthesis, AR‐mediated transcription of several oncogenes, mRNA 5′

Cost Savings from Reducing Pain Through the Delivery of Integrative Medicine Program to Hospitalized Patients.

Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine, 2018
OBJECTIVES An important task facing hospitals is improving pain management without raising costs. Integrative medicine (IM), a promising nonpharmacologic pain management strategy, is yet to be examined for its cost implications in an inpatient setting ...

Energy-saving fast-forward scaling [PDF]

SciPost Phys. Core 8, 019 (2025)
We propose energy-saving fast-forward scaling. Fast-forward scaling is a method which enables us to speed up (or slow down) given dynamics in a certain measurement basis. We introduce energy costs of fast-forward scaling, and find possibility of energy-saving speedup for time-independent measurement bases.

Dose‐dependent induction of epithelial‐mesenchymal transition in 3D melanoma models by non‐thermal plasma treatment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Non‐thermal plasma treatment of melanoma cells induced epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) in a dose‐dependent fashion. This report highlights the critical need to further investigate potential adverse effects of non‐thermal plasma for cancer therapy and to optimize treatment parameters for clinical translation. Despite the promising results of non‐

Estimating cost savings of pharmacogenetic testing for depression in real-world clinical settings

Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment, 2018
The burden of depression significantly impacts the patient, the health care system, and society, at large. Medication management guided by pharmacogenetics has been shown to increase therapeutic efficacy and improve symptoms in patients diagnosed with ...
