Dr. Greg Hendey, new chair of emergency medicine, on fresh ideas for hospital ’s ‘front door’
The emergency department has often been thought of as “the front door of the hospital.” A new key player in UCLA ’s hospitality is Dr. Greg Hendey, who joined UCLA on June 15 as the inaugural chair of the Department of Emergency Medicine at the David Geffen School of Medicine.It has been something of a homecoming for Hendey, who completed an internship in medicine and residency in emergency medicine at UCLA 23 years ago, including a stint as chief resident in 1992-93. He went on to join the emergency medicine faculty of the UC San Francisco School of Medicine at its Fresno campus, becoming research director in 2000 a...

Validation of a 16th Century Traditional Chinese Medicine Use of Ginkgo biloba as a Topical Antimicrobial
This study aimed to examine the traditional use of Ginkgo seeds as topical treatment for skin disorders for potential antibacterial efficacy. This is the first study to test and compare the antibacterial activity of various Ginkgo seed extracts on skin pathogens. In this work, we confirmed the ethnomedicinal importance of seeds in the treatment of skin diseases. As reported in the Compendium of Materia Medica Ben Cao Gang Mu, only the seeds were used for medicinal uses, especially as a topical treatment for skin infections. Moreover, our study validates the antimicrobial activity of the seed (i.e., seed coats and immature...

Obama's Not-So-Daring Precision Medicine Plan
Caption: President Barack Obama delivers the State of the Union address in the House Chamber at the U.S. Capitol, Jan. 20, 2015. (Official White House Photo by Pete Souza) By Meredith Salisbury For all the attention that President Obama's precision medicine initiative has garnered in the weeks since he first mentioned it in his State of the Union address, you'd think the program was the next version of the Human Genome Project. But unlike that effort, which was a wildly audacious push to revolutionize biology and medicine, the modest new initiative -- and its $215 million price tag -- seems downright underwhelming. For a...

The Future of Hospital Medicine …Is Connected
Recently someone on Twitter, supposedly a physician, replied to one of my tweets calling out misinformation and tried to catch me in some trap about vaccine-induced cardiac events. She went on to insult hospitalists as “assembly line” workers who don’t care about losing patients. She claimed our only goal is corporate-run rapid turnover and we are unaffected by patient loss. The internet and its connectivity are a wonderful thing, but not always. We as hospitalists know that what she said is not true. In fact, in the last two years alone, most of us have seen more loss despite our best efforts, and most of us have fe...

Letter to the editor: Resident and Patient Responses to the Institution of Required Narcotic Agreements in an Internal Medicine Outpatient Clinic
In this study, we examined whether a change in clinic policy from recommended narcotic agreements (Time-1) to required narcotic agreements (Time-2) would improve resident contracting and/or have any effect on patient behavior (as measured by provider requests for urine drug testing) in an internal medicine resident-provider outpatient clinic (30 providers). Participants consisted of 299 patients, 223 of whom provided data at Time-1 (during the period of recommended narcotic agreements) and 76 of whom entered the practice during Time-2 (after the initiation of required narcotic agreements). Of the 223 patients seen during t...

Chronicle of Health Creation: The Shadow in Berwick's Call for a 'Moral Era' for Medicine
The shadow of the U.S. medical industry is shockingly apparent in the names of the priorities its reformers declare. Most recently this dark matter was outed in the Journal of the American Medical Association by the physician and change agent Donald Berwick, MD. Berwick, something of a personal hero, called on the industry to enter a new "Moral Era." But can we right the industry's rapacious course by simply asking people to put their best foot forward? Berwick is the former recess appointee by President Obama to head the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Given his penchant for single payer, the Republicans woul...

Doctors Slam NRA ’s Directive to ‘Stay in Their Lane’ After Chicago Hospital Shooting
After a shooting at Mercy Hospital in Chicago killed three people, including two hospital workers, doctors across the country are continuing to speak out against gun violence — and they’re pushing back on the National Rifle Association’s (NRA) admonition that they should “stay in their lane.” Earlier this month, the NRA responded to an Annals of Internal Medicine position paper on the urgency of reducing firearm fatalities with a tweet directing “self-important anti-gun doctors” to “stay in their lane.” The backlash from the medical community was swift and strong, with ...

Pursuing a Path of Regulatory Rigor: Taking Medtech, Regenerative Medicine to the Next Level
The medical device industry is facing a generational change in the regulation and validation of its products. Today, more than ever, physicians, patients, and payers are demanding solid evidence that the devices they prescribe, use, and pay for performs to the highest standards and is backed by significant clinical data. In many cases, these standards are being driven by hospital value analysis committees, who increasingly act as gatekeepers for their institutions. This trend, combined with a more stringent regulatory approach by the FDA, particularly with regards to regenerative medicine technologies, means that the famil...

How Can Law Support Development of Genomics and Precision Medicine to Advance Health Equity and Reduce Disparities?
This article introduces a special issue of Ethnicity & Disease which contains a series of articles that grew out of a public conference to investigate these legal issues and propose solutions. This 2018 conference at Meharry Medical College was part of an NIH-funded project on "LawSeqSM" to evaluate and improve the law of genomics in order to support appropriate integration of genomics into clinical care. This conference was composed of presentations and interactive sessions designed to specify the top legal barriers to health equity in precision medicine and stimulate potential solutions. This article synthesizes the ...
