ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is managed after sinus surgery with topical corticosteroids. Given limited distribution of nasal steroid sprays, patients have the option of either steroid nasal irrigation (SNI) or exhalation delivery system with fluticasone (EDS‐FLU).

Toward Solution‐Time Advantage With Error‐Mitigated Quantum Annealing for Combinatorial Optimization
This paper presents a novel error mitigation technique to address the qubit errors that occur when solving combinatorial optimization problems with quantum annealing. The approach significantly speeds up the computation to reach the global optimum solution for a correlated 3D image segmentation model for material microstructures, demonstrating a ...

A QALY loss is a QALY loss is a QALY loss: a note on independence of loss aversion from health states [PDF]
Evidence has accumulated documenting loss aversion for monetary and, recently, for health outcomes-meaning that, generally, losses carry more weight than equally sized gains. In the conventional Quality-Adjusted Life Year (QALY) models, which comprise utility for quality and length of life, loss aversion is not taken into account.

The management of type 2 diabetes with fixed‐ratio combination insulin degludec/liraglutide (IDegLira) versus basal‐bolus therapy (insulin glargine U100 plus insulin aspart): a short‐term cost‐effectiveness analysis in the UK setting [PDF]
Aim: To evaluate the cost‐effectiveness of IDegLira versus basal‐bolus therapy (BBT) with insulin glargine U100 plus up to 4 times daily insulin aspart for the management of type 2 diabetes in the UK.

Purpose To evaluate the cost‐effectiveness of using allograft and xenograft augmentation at the time of primary rotator cuff repair (RCR) using a decision tree analysis. Methods An expected‐value decision tree analysis was developed to compare the costs and outcomes of primary RCR for large tears performed with or without graft augmentation.

A test of the predictive validity of non-linear QALY models using time trade-off utilities [PDF]
This paper presents a test of the predictive validity of various classes of QALY models (i.e., linear, power and exponential models). We first estimated TTO utilities for 43 EQ-5D chronic health states and next these states were embedded in health ...
