Abby S Kazley, Raj Amarnath, Arun Palanisamy, David Taber, Kenneth Chavin, Prabhakar Baliga and Wendy Balliet

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: September 21, 2016

Living kidney donors have emerged as the best option to overcome the severe shortage of transplantable kidneys. A growing number of these living donor kidneys come from anonymous altruistic donors who are not related to the recipients according to UNOS data. This study examines the process of anonymous altruistic kidney donation and identifies barriers and variance in transplant center practices. Using a mock patient caller, 73 transplant centers were contacted and asked about the process of alt...

Takashi Abe, Takayuki Nagai and Kazunari Murakami

Article Type: Clinical Image | First Published: December 01, 2016

A 71-year-old man was diagnosed with squamous cell lung cancer in the right lower lobe.

The patient complained of relatively sudden-onset chest pain and high-grade fever. Computed tomography (CT) showed a small volume of air in the lung cancer of the right lower lobe, so the patient was suspected of fistula between the esophagus...

The MOC Train is off Course

Scott L Lee

Article Type: Perspective | First Published: September 01, 2016

Leaders often use the proverbial departed train to get people on board with unpopular changes, especially ones with little supporting evidence.

Juliana S Ee, Cristobal S Berry-Caban, Dana R Nguyen, Madina Boyd, Nick Bennett, Thomas Beltran and Michele Williams

Article Type: Research Article | First Published: October 20, 2016

nsomnia is a highly prevalent sleep disorder in the US. Among the military population, 41% of active duty service members reported less than 5 hours sleep per night, and there was nearly a 20-fold increase in incidence of insomnia among service members between 2000 and 2009. Given that most soldiers with insomnia seek initial treatment in the primary care setting, an understanding of soldiers' treatment expectations and preferences may contribute to treatment success....
