An Updated Look at Excess Spending and Affordability in California's Health Care System
Topline New estimates suggest that California’s excessive health care spending might have declined slightly as a share of total spending—but up to $137.5 billion could still be unnecessary. Health care affordability remains a serious challenge in California, and one in four Californians describes health care costs as a major financial strain.
Chronic Expanding Hematoma Complicated by Life Threatening Hemoptysis and Respiratory Arrest—A Case Report
1 Introduction Chronic expanding hematoma (CEH), a rare clinical entity within thoracic medicine, is defined as a slowly enlarging hematoma that progresses in size over a period of years. The proposed pathogenesis involves recurrent cycles of microhemorrhage, local inflammation, pathological neovascularization and tissue organization within capillaries of granulation tissue, leading to progressive hematoma enlargement and the formation of a thick fibrous capsule over time [1].

Place of service and the volume-outcome relationship: evidence from eye surgeries - Scientific Reports
Abstract Surgeries have increasingly moved into the outpatient setting, yet training in the non-hospital setting is rare. Using Medicare claims from 1999 through 2013 on 4,117,141 cataract surgeries, 153,148 retina surgeries, and 91,276 glaucoma surgeries, this research studied whether the relationship between surgeon volume and adverse patient outcomes differed by facility type for eye surgeries.

Nursing Home Certificate of Need Moratoria During the COVID-19 Pandemic Had Little Impact on Access
What do we already know about this topic? Certificate of need (CON) laws on nursing homes are associated with lower nursing home capacity, higher costs, and lower quality of care; CON states experienced higher hospital utilization during the pandemic compared to non-CON states. How does your research contribute to the field? This article studies how CON moratoria during the COVID-19 pandemic affected nursing home capacity and utilization.

Regulating Interparticle Proximity in Plasmonic Nanosphere Aggregates to Enhance Photoacoustic Response and Photothermal Stability
1 Introduction Photoacoustic (PA) imaging is a hybrid technology that generates optical contrast at ultrasound (US) imaging depth.[1-4] When an optical absorber is irradiated by nanosecond laser pulses, a light-to-thermoacoustic wave conversion generates PA signals.[5, 6] While endogenous absorbers, such as hemoglobin, can be utilized for label-free imaging in a variety of applications, design of exogenous contrast agents with unique optical absorption spectra compared to endogenous absorbers...

Preventing Metastasis Using Gold Nanorod-Assisted Plasmonic Photothermal Therapy in Xenograft Mice
Despite significant research regarding metastasis, there has been limited success in preventing it. However, gold nanoparticle (AuNP) technology has shown the potential to inhibit metastasis. Our earlier studies of gold nanorod-assisted plasmonic photothermal therapy (AuNRs-PPTT), where gold nanorods (AuNRs) were irradiated with near-infrared (NIR) light to induce heat, were utilized in slowing cancer cell migration in vitro.

More than a fertilizer: wastewater-derived struvite as a high value, sustainable fire retardant
More than a fertilizer: wastewater-derived struvite as a high value, sustainable fire retardant Recovery of struvite at wastewater treatment plants provides a beneficial fertilizer while preventing costly operational issues due to precipitation in pipes, pumps, and digesters. At present, however, sale of struvite as fertilizer is hampered by low revenues.

Seasonal Impact of Phosphate-Based Fire Retardants on Soil Chemistry Following the Prophylactic Treatment of Vegetation
A preventative treatment of fire retardants at high-risk locales can potentially stop a majority of wildfires. For example, over 80% of wildfire ignitions in California occur at high-risk locales such as adjacent to roadsides and utility infrastructure. Recently a new class of ammonium polyphosphate retardants was developed with enhanced adherence and retention on vegetation to enable prophylactic treatments of these high-risk locals to provide season-long prevention of ignitions.
Physical networks from entropy-driven non-covalent interactions
Abstract Physical networks typically employ enthalpy-dominated crosslinking interactions that become more dynamic at elevated temperatures, leading to network softening. Moreover, standard mathematical frameworks such as time-temperature superposition assume network softening and faster dynamics at elevated temperatures.

Reply to Santín et al.: Viscoelastic retardant fluids enable treatments to prevent wildfire on landscapes subject to routine ignitions
Our recent paper (1) reports the development and pilot-scale validation of viscoelastic carrier fluids for ammonium polyphosphate (APP), the primary retardant used in wildland firefighting, to improve retention on common ignition-prone vegetation to protect through environmental exposure. In response to our paper, Santín et al. (2) state that while our approach is worthy of further exploration we did not provide sufficient support for suitability of these fluids at large scale.

Getting a Handle on Scratches in Horses
Address the condition’s primary, predisposing, and perpetuating causative factors for a successful outcome. Please login to bookmark Close Scratches, or equine pastern dermatitis (EPD), is not a disease but, rather, a cutaneous reaction pattern. Veterinarians and owners must address the primary, predisposing, and perpetuating causative factors for a successful outcome. Note that treating the predisposing and perpetuating factors is just as important as addressing the primary cause.
SARA YIN | “EARLY READING IS AKIN TO TRAVELING FOR CHILDREN”
What does a day in your life look like today? It’s really boring since I became pregnant. I wake up, drink hot water with lemon, eat breakfast, go to work, come home, walk for 20 mins, eat dinner, and I’m in bed by 10. I’m relishing the simplicity of it. Before this I’d agonize over whether to meet with friends, do yoga, attend a concert, or do this and that. How did you get to where you are today?
Supramolecular polymeric biomaterials
Polymeric chains crosslinked through supramolecular interactions—directional and reversible non-covalent interactions—compose an emerging class of modular and tunable biomaterials. The choice of chemical moiety utilized in the crosslink affords different thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of association, which in turn illustrate the connectivity and dynamics of the system.
