Medical writing excerpts

Which treatments have been the most effective and what advances have been made since the beginning of the pandemic?

“We really knew nothing and had nothing in March, so we tried a lot of methods; some worked out for the better, some not so much. In New Jersey, we were quickly overwhelmed with patients. Despite discouraging data in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) early on, we eventually realized that steroids seem to provide the most benefit. Luckily, multiple trials — the Oxford RECOVERY trial being the first — have shown a significant benefit with some steroids, especially for those who need oxygen or are more severely ill. That has become a mainstay of therapy.”

“...Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have twice the risk of developing disease-related Hodgkin’s and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma compared with the general population. Does this risk change with the introduction of biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs)?

A group of investigators recently tested this hypothesis, specifically looking to see if those receiving antirheumatic biologic treatment experience an “exchange of risk” wherein their disease-related risk of lymphoma is supplanted by a risk of treatment-related lymphoma. In addition, they tested whether treatment had an influence on lymphoma subtypes compared with the general population…”

“...Investigators are now accumulating evidence to support the assertion that prevention and treatment of insulin resistance (IR) may help to lessen cognitive decline later in life…”

“...Tired of seeing the fruits and vegetables from the lunch tray land in the garbage, investigators from Ohio State and Cornell universities decided to use good old-fashioned marketing efforts to motivate elementary-school kids to choose the salad bar.

They went to 10 schools in a large urban school district in the northeast United States where 82% of students received a free or reduced-price lunch.1 They randomly assigned schools to either be a control or to receive 1 of 3 marketing tactics: a vinyl banner wrapped around a salad bar, animated TV segments next to a salad bar, or both.

Cartoon vegetable characters, like broccoli, carrots, and zucchini with superhuman strength, announced, “What’s your super power?” The banners and/or TVs were posted at the experimental schools for 4 weeks (after a 2-week baseline assessment period).

The results were stunning. Of those who were exposed to just the vinyl banners, 91% more kids took vegetables from the salad bar; 239% more students went to the salad bar in schools that used banners and TV segments…”

"It’s been 13 years since the CDC issued its recommendation for universal HIV testing for individuals between 13 to 64 years of age and at least an annual screening for at-risk individuals, including sexually active men who have sex with men; people who inject drugs; anyone who has had more than one sex partner since their last HIV test; and people who have been diagnosed with hepatitis, tuberculosis, or another sexually transmitted infection. Progress has been made,, but a need for more testing remains,..."
