Social Determinants of Health Correlating with Mechanical Ve
Plain Language Summary Social determinants of health are associated with an increased risk of COVID-19 morbidity and mortality.1–3 In this retrospective observational study, we further illustrate how low socioeconomic status, Black race, disability, and non-English-speaking status were associated with an increased rate of mechanical ventilation from COVID-19.
The Impact of Disparities in Social Determinants of Health
Key Points Question: Which social determinants of health increase the risk of hospitalization in patients with COVID-19? Finding: Lower socioeconomic status as indexed by zip code, African-American race and Hispanic and Latino ethnicity, non-English speaking status, and Medicare and Medicaid patients were all at higher risk of hospitalization in patients with COVID-19.

Comparison of Venous Thrombosis Complications in Midlines Versus Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters: Are Midlines the Safer Option?
Introduction Establishment and maintenance of intravenous access are core processes in providing medical care for hospitalized patients. For patients requiring extended duration of therapy, the point-of-care vascular access team (VAT) is often consulted for patient assessment and vascular access device (VAD) placement at many hospitals.

Impact of Baseline Characteristics on the Survival Benefit of High-Intensity Local Treatment in Metastatic Urothelial Carcinoma of the Bladder
A recent study reported an overall survival benefit for patients with metastatic urothelial carcinoma of the bladder (mUCB) managed with high-intensity local treatment (LT) of the primary tumor (chemotherapy plus radical cystectomy and/or radiation therapy ?50?Gy). Given the non-negligible morbidity of these procedures, adequate patient selection is crucial. Our objective was to identify patients who might benefit the most from high-intensity LT.
Efficacy of Systemic Chemotherapy Plus Radical Nephroureterectomy for Metastatic Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma
Given the growing body of evidence supporting the benefit of primary tumor control for a wide range of metastatic malignancies, we hypothesized that chemotherapy plus radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) is associated with an overall survival (OS) benefit compared to chemotherapy alone for metastatic upper tract urothelial carcinoma (mUTUC).
Generalizability of the Prostate Cancer Intervention Versus Observation Trial (PIVOT) Results to Contemporary North American Men with Prostate Cancer
