Safety and Efficacy of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists in Adults With Epilepsy, Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Managing obesity in patients with epilepsy is complicated by the weight‐gaining properties of essential antiseizure medications (ASMs) such as valproate and pregabalin. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of initiating glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) in this population.

White Matter and Perivascular Imaging Changes in Alzheimer's Disease and Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Peak‐width of skeletonized mean diffusivity (PSMD) and diffusion tensor imaging–analysis along the perivascular space (DTI‐ALPS), reflecting white matter integrity and glymphatic function, are altered in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

HOSPITAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS AND QUALITY ASSURANCE

International Journal for Quality in Health Care, 1990
Hospital information systems may contribute in different ways to quality assurance activities such as assessing the quality of primary care, monitoring quality indicators, supporting clinical care evaluation studies, and auditing concurrently the ongoing process of care using reminders or decision support techniques. Examples of effective contributions

Quality Assurance in EMS Systems

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1992
QA activities in EMS systems are severely hampered unless a central agency exists to coordinate data collection, funding, and communication between agencies and field providers. EMS systems must address these issues successfully to maximize their efforts.

Quality assurance procedures for the peacock system

Medical Dosimetry, 2001
The Peacock system is the product of technological innovations that are changing the practice of radiotherapy. It uses dynamic beam modulation technique and inverse planning algorithm, both of which are new methodologies, to perform intensity-modulation radiation therapy (IMRT). The quality assurance (QA) procedure established by Task Group No.

Quality assurance and testing for safety systems

Annals of Software Engineering, 1997
In this paper we identify special quality assurance and test requirements of software for safety systems and show that even the best currently available practices meet these requirements only at very high cost and by application of empirical rather than technically rigorous criteria.

Quality Assurance of Animal Watering Systems

Lab Animal, 2003
Contaminants in the water supplied to laboratory animals pose a serious threat to both the health and welfare of the animals and the reliability of experimental data. The authors assess various systems for water purification, and suggest strategies for matching water quality assurance to the needs of the facility and its users.
