Summary: The study explores the potential value of strengthening PCMH teams to address complex patient needs and identifies the necessary supports and capabilities for better managing these patients. Detailed interviews and analysis of PCMH teams reveal they are already performing most IPC tasks, but may require additional training and resources.

Summary: The objective of this study was to explore the association between patient-centered care (PCC) and inpatient healthcare outcomes. The results showed that PCC promoted patients' physical and mental health, subjective necessity of hospitalization, and reduced physician-induced demand behaviors.

Summary: This study introduces the patient-centered approach in China and validates the Chinese version of the Patient-Professional Interaction Questionnaire (PPIQ-C) to assess patient satisfaction. The results show that the PPIQ-C is a reliable measure and patient-centered care predicts overall patient satisfaction beyond other medical service perspectives. Adopting a patient-centered approach can improve overall healthcare and patient satisfaction in China.

Summary: The symptoms of COVID-19 are highly variable, but anosmia and ageusia may be indicative of the disease. Combining symptoms with other information such as contact history, travel history, age, and gender can improve diagnostic accuracy.

Summary: The majority of individual signs and symptoms reviewed show poor diagnostic accuracy, influenced by selection bias and study heterogeneity. Data currently available suggest that neither the absence nor presence of signs or symptoms are accurate enough to confirm or rule out COVID-19. The presence of anosmia or ageusia may serve as a red flag for COVID-19, while fever or cough, due to their high sensitivities, can also be used to target individuals for further testing. Prospective studies evaluating combinations of signs and symptoms in unselected populations are urgently needed to better understand the syndromic presentation of COVID-19.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the association between patient-centered communication (PCC) and primary care quality. The results showed poor communication between primary care providers and patients, and the PCC model has not been achieved. However, interactions with a higher score of PCC were more likely to have a correct diagnosis and treatment, longer consultation time, more unnecessary drugs, and higher medical expenditure.

Summary: The effectiveness of a 12-month home-based exercise program on trunk muscle strength after lumbar spine fusion surgery was evaluated. The program was found to be equally effective as usual care in improving trunk muscle strength. However, adherence to the home exercise program decreased, which may have influenced the strength changes.

Summary: This study investigated the association between non-contractile muscle tissue in the vastus medialis muscle, measured with routine MRI, and muscle extensor strength in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). The results showed that a high percentage of non-contractile muscle tissue was associated with lower muscle strength and longer activity time. However, sex and BMI were found to confound this association.

Summary: The study evaluated the experience of clients and clinicians in working with a tool to help set meaningful goals for rehabilitation clients. The tool was found to be effective in helping clients establish personally meaningful rehabilitation goals, leading to increased intrinsic motivation and facilitating behavior change in some clients. Both clients and clinicians provided suggestions for further improvement of the tool.

Summary: This study explores the indicators and strategies used by oncologists and nurses to determine the need for professional mental health care in cancer patients. The findings suggest that oncologists and nurses consider multiple factors, including the patient's emotional well-being and specific indicators of emotional problems, when making the decision to refer patients for professional mental health care.

Summary: There was no significant difference in muscle strength improvement between high-intensity and low-intensity resistance training in knee osteoarthritis patients. High-intensity training was well tolerated. There was no synergistic effect between vitamin D supplementation and resistance training.

Summary: Stratified exercise therapy did not show improved outcomes compared to usual exercise therapy in people with knee osteoarthritis. Therapists in the experimental arm faced difficulties in effectively applying the model, especially in the obesity subgroup, and elements of stratified exercise therapy may have been applied in the control arm as well.

Summary: This study investigated the reasons for non-participation and low uptake in a psychological intervention trial for colorectal cancer survivors. The results showed that patients with high psychological distress and a greater need for help were more likely to participate. Younger age, shorter time since diagnosis, and more problems reported were positively related to participation. It is recommended for future research to conduct pilot and feasibility studies to optimize recruitment.

Summary: Psychologically informed health care refers to the integration of psychological principles into health care, leading to transdisciplinary care. Key characteristics of this approach include the direct mode (psychologists directly treating patients) and indirect mode (psychologists working through other health care providers), targeting various health domains, transcending disciplinary boundaries, and positioning of care. A framework for transdisciplinary care, called the Framework for Catalytic Collaboration, is described, along with four brief illustrations. Future directions discussed include professional recognition of the indirect mode, financing, cross-disciplinary training, and trans-disciplinary research.

Summary: A meta-analysis of individual participant data from 18 cohorts found no associations between depression or anxiety and most types of cancer, except for lung cancer and smoking-related cancers. The associations with lung and smoking-related cancers were attenuated when adjusting for known risk factors.

Summary: The study used the Delphi method to update the definition and scope of behavioral medicine and propose the main tasks and goals of ISBM. Behavioral medicine was defined as a field of research and practice that builds on collaboration among multiple disciplines concerned with development and application of behavioral and biomedical evidence across the disease continuum. ISBM's main tasks and goals focus on supporting communication and collaboration across disciplines, stimulating research, education, and practice, and supporting individuals and organizations in the field.
