    Abstract As the COVID-19 pandemic evolves, the medical community continues to discover novel clinical manifestations of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus. Often, extrapulmonary manifestations occur simultaneously with pulmonary disease. However, there is a paucity of literature describing the cardiac manifestations of COVID-19 in the absence of pulmonary findings. We report a rare case of acute pericarditis presenting with pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade in a 43-year-old man diagnosed with COVID-19. This case emphasizes the importance of continued investigation regarding diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 and its related symptoms.

    Abstract Most adolescents do not meet physical activity guidelines, so understanding facilitators and barriers is important. This study used surveys and geocoded location data to examine associations of availability of parks and recreation facilities with adolescent-reported participation in organized team sports and physical activity classes. The study was conducted with 928 adolescents aged 12-17 years, plus one parent/caretaker, recruited from two regions of the US. Adolescents' participation in teams and classes was positively associated with parents' perceptions of multiple available recreation environments, but not with objectively-measured availability. Having multiple nearby parks and recreation facilities may provide adolescents with more options for participating in preferred organized team sports and activity classes.

    Abstract Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in one-fourth of children and young adults admitted to pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Severe AKI (sAKI; Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes stage 2 or 3) is associated with morbidity and mortality. An AKI risk stratification system, the Renal Angina Index (RAI) calculated at 12 hours of admission, exhibits excellent performance to rule out sAKI at 72 hours of admission. We found that integration of urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) with RAI improves prediction of sAKI. We now report the first-year results after implementation of our prospective automated RAI-NGAL clinical decision support (CDS) program.
    Methods: Patients 3 months to 25 years of age were eligible. Admission order sets have a conditional order for urine NGAL released when a 12-hour RAI ≥8. The primary outcome was sAKI any time at days 2 to 4 of admission. We assessed performance of the RAI and RAI+/NGAL to predict the primary outcome.
    Results: A total of 1427 unique patients accounted for 1575 admissions. In 147 admissions, RAI was ≥8. RAI <8 had negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.98 (95% CI 0.97-0.99); RAI ≥ 8 had positive predictive value (PPV) of 0.37 (95% CI 0.30-0.46) to predict days 2 to 4 sAKI (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC-ROC] 0.88 [95% CI 0.84-0.92]). Of 147 RAI+ patients, 89 had NGAL available. RAI/NGAL combination improved PPV (0.64, 95% CI 0.50-0.79) without decrement in NPV (0.98, 95% CI 0.97-0.98).
    Conclusion: AKI biomarker assessment directed by risk stratification improves prediction of sAKI in critically ill children and young adults. This CDS process has potential to enrich the population for interventional study, although improvement to adherence to CDS is needed.

    Abstract To improve the nutritional quality of foods selected by clients at a university food pantry.Collaborative research through Cornell University and Feeding America has identified that small changes to food pantry environments can lead to healthier choices. Researchers found nudges increase the likelihood and average amount of healthier items selected by clients at pantries. Hunger + Health (2016), a partner of Feeding America, noted nudge interventions increased the likelihood of a client selecting one healthy food item by 46%, on average.College students and other clients at a university food pantry.The Marshall University Smarter Food Pantry is committed to providing and promoting healthy food choices at home. The pantry is operated through the Department of Dietetics and utilizes Marshall's Nutrition Education Program (NEP) to incorporate policy, systems, and environmental changes.Registered dietitian nutritionists and dietetic interns performed a process evaluation and determined changes necessary to influence healthier client options/choices at the pantry and implemented these changes.Alongside Feeding America, Marshall University's food pantry, open to both students and community members, has made changes to promote healthier eating. Currently, the pantry has: moved location of healthier items to promote exposure and provide educational opportunities by food pantry staff and volunteers, provided labeling for food items, provided positive nutritional messages and promotion utilizing bulletin boards and posters, provided MyPlate promotion and how to fill a healthy plate with foods available in the pantry, developed healthy recipes for items available in the pantry, held targeted food drives on campus for healthy food items and donations for crockpots, and implemented plan to provide food samples in future to promote preparation of healthy items at home.Because of pantry reorganization, healthier items are available and promoted regularly to clients. Preliminary results indicated that clients select healthier options. Plans to evaluate measurable outcomes are being developed.SNAP-Ed.

    Abstract The feasibility and safety of same-day discharge after transvenous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator implantation is well-established. However, subcutaneous ICDs (S-ICDs) are now increasingly being implanted, and the feasibility, safety, and potential cost savings associated with same-day discharge after S-ICD placement has not been widely investigated. In a small cohort of patients (n = 24) who underwent S-ICD implantation at our institution, 54% were successfully discharged on the same day as their implant procedure. Procedure-related complications were not apparent in this sampling and the reduction in health care costs was high, suggesting this protocol has immense benefit in today's health care environment. As such, same-day discharge of S-ICD patients is appropriate to consider and should receive further attention.

    Abstract This study examines the moderating effect of perceived safety on the association of green space with neighborhood social capital in older adults. Green space may play an important role for promoting neighborhood social capital and health for older adults; however, safety remains a significant challenge in maximizing the benefits of green space. Data were drawn from 647 independent-living seniors who participated in the Senior Neighborhood Quality of Life Study in the Seattle/King County and Baltimore/Washington DC region. The results suggest that certain green space elements, such as natural sights, may be beneficial to neighborhood social capital of older adults. However, other types of green space, such as parks and street trees, may be less advantageous to older adults who perceive their neighborhoods as unsafe for pedestrians. Findings highlight the importance of pedestrian safety in examining associations of green space with neighborhood social capital in older adults. Further studies using a longitudinal design are warranted to confirm the causality of the findings.

    Abstract Recent years have been turbulent ones for the Huntington's disease (HD) community. Three clinical trials for HD, including the first Phase 3 trial of a potentially disease modifying genetic therapy for HD, were all brought to a halt in March of 2021. 2022 brought more study roadblocks and an additional trial termination. As HD science progresses and larger scale trials become more frequent in the community, HD families are faced with the difficult reality that clinical research rarely results in a new drug hitting the market. To better understand how the HD community can be prepared for the ups and downs that accompany an expanding clinical research pipeline, the Huntington's Disease Society of America (HDSA) spoke with members of the Huntington's Disease Coalition for Patient Engagement (HD-COPE). This group of global advocates led by HDSA and the Huntington's Society of Canada (HSC) collaborates with pharmaceutical companies to ensure that HD voices are represented in the planning of clinical trials. These conversations allowed HDSA to summarize how the HD community can be best supported through the clinical research process in three key areas: engagement, support, and education.
