Impact of COVID-19 on Chronic Ambulatory-Care-Sensitive Condition Emergency Department Use Among Older Adults

Background:

The COVID-19 pandemic social distancing requirements encouraged patients to avoid public spaces including in-office health care visits. Ambulatory-care-sensitive conditions (ACSCs) represent conditions that can be managed with quality primary care and when access is limited, these conditions can lead to avoidable emergency department (ED) visits.

Methods:

Using national data on ED visits from 2019 to 2021 in the National Hospital Ambulatory Care Survey, we examined the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on ACSC ED visits among older adults (aged ≥65).

Results:

The proportion of ED visits among older adults that were for ACSCs increased between 2019 (17.4%) and 2021 (18.5%). The trend in both rural (26.4%–28.6%) and urban areas (15.4%–16.8%) shows a significant jump from 2019 to 2021 (P < .001).

Conclusions:

This rise in ACSC ED use is consistent with a delay in normal primary care during the pandemic.

Arterial Spin-Labeling Perfusion Lightbulb Sign: An Imaging Biomarker of Pediatric Posterior Fossa Hemangioblastoma [CLINICAL PRACTICE]

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:

Hemangioblastoma is a rare vascular tumor that occurs within the central nervous system in children. Differentiating hemangioblastoma from other posterior fossa tumors can be challenging on imaging, and preoperative diagnosis can change the neurosurgical approach. We hypothesize that a "lightbulb sign" on the arterial spin-labeling (ASL) sequence (diffuse homogeneous intense hyperperfusion within the solid component of the tumor) will provide additional imaging finding to differentiate hemangioblastoma from other posterior fossa tumors.

MATERIALS AND METHODS:

In this retrospective comparative observational study, we only included pathology-proved cases of hemangioblastoma, while the control group consisted of other randomly selected pathology-proved posterior fossa tumors from January 2022 to January 2024. Two blinded neuroradiologists analyzed all applicable MRI sequences, including ASL sequence if available. ASL was analyzed for the lightbulb sign. Disagreements between the radiologists were resolved by a third pediatric neuroradiologist. 2 and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the data.

RESULTS:

Ninety-five patients were enrolled in the study; 57 (60%) were boys. The median age at diagnosis was 8 years old (interquartile range: 3–14). Of the enrolled patients, 8 had hemangioblastoma, and 87 had other posterior fossa tumors, including medulloblastoma (n = 31), pilocytic astrocytoma (n = 23), posterior fossa ependymoma type A (n = 16), and other tumors (n = 17). The comparison of hemangioblastoma versus nonhemangioblastoma showed that peripheral edema (P = .02) and T2-flow void (P = .02) favor hemangioblastoma, whereas reduced diffusion (low ADC) (P = .002) and ventricular system extension (P = .001) favor nonhemangioblastoma tumors. Forty-two cases also had ASL perfusion sequences. While high perfusion favors hemangioblastoma (P = .03), the lightbulb sign shows a complete distinction because all the ASL series of hemangioblastoma cases (n = 4) showed the lightbulb sign, whereas none of the nonhemangioblastoma cases (n = 38) showed the sign (P < .001).

CONCLUSIONS:

Lightbulb-like intense and homogeneous hyperperfusion patterns on ASL are helpful in diagnosing posterior fossa hemangioblastoma in children.

Anderson Cooper Literally Calls Bulls*** on Surrogate’s Trump Defense

CNN

CNN anchor Anderson Cooper was flabbergasted Wednesday by a surrogate’s defense of Donald Trump, calling his explanation for the former president’s bombastic statements literal “bulls---.”

On AC360, former California Lieutenant Gov. Abel Maldonado, a Republican, said that Trump’s recent comments calling for the military to “handle” Democrats were simply his way of expressing his inner New Yorker. “He’s a fighter,” Maldonado added.

The conversation began when Cooper brought up Trump’s former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley, who, alongside other military leaders, have begun to warn of the dangers of re-electing the former president. Milley has called Trump a “fascist to his core.”

November 4, 2024: One-Page Bulge Second Edition Kickstarter Ending Soon!

Imagine, if you will: an entire wargame, with strategic depth and intriguing possibilities . . . and the rules fit on one page.

If you're a long-time fan of Steve Jackson Games (or you saw the Daily Illuminator post from a couple of weeks ago), you know where we're going with this. One-Page Bulge – originally released in 1980 – did exactly what its title suggests, with Steve Jackson flexing his inimitable game-design skills to deliver a Battle of the Bulge wargame where the rules fit on one sheet of 8.5" × 11" double-sided paper.

This classic game is back with a new edition: One-Page Bulge Second Edition – in time for the 80th anniversary of the pivotal battle itself!

Thanks to Kickstarter (and fans like you), this updated version funded in 40 minutes! In honor of that success, we're providing a few more details about what makes it worth checking out.

One-Page Bulge Second Edition is being updated by Steve Jackson and wargame designer Dana Lombardy – two Hall of Fame designers working together to bring this classic game to a modern era. Find their behind-the-scenes insight about the new version on YouTube!

Some highlights of this edition include:

  • New Random Event cards, with exciting events to represent unexpected battlefield surprises.
  • A full-color mounted map.
  • High-quality components, with two styles of counter sets to choose from (or get them both!).
An illustrated historical guide is also part of this project, bringing this landmark moment to life.

Suitable for solo gaming or two players, One-Page Bulge Second Edition is history in the making. But hurry! The Kickstarter ends in 10 days, on November 14!

Casa Foscolo Hotel, Istanbul; Where Heritage Is Celebrated

Nestled in the center of Istanbul’s second most historic neighborhood, the new Casa Foscolo Hotel stands as a testament to the timeless legacy of the city’s rich heritage. With carefully added modern amenities and a meticulously true-to-history renovation, the 124-year-old building is now home to an intimate luxury hotel, where contemporary art, literature, and history collide. Set in the heart of Beyoğlu, also known as Pera, Istanbul’s second oldest district, the newly opened Casa Foscolo Hotel is steeped in history yet simultaneously awash with the creature comforts of modernity. The building was first constructed between 1890 and 1900 as a pioneering apart-hotel for Foscolo Mango & Co. Ltd., a maritime business founded in Istanbul by the Venetian Foscolo family. In the 1930s, the German Holstein family took over, transforming the ground level into a culinary destination and the upper floors into commercial hubs. Today, the meticulously restored and renovated historical structure br...
