    Abstract Purpose: Reporting of outcome and experience measures is critical to our understanding of the effect of intervention for speech sound disorders (SSD) in children. There is currently no agreed-upon set of measures for reporting intervention outcomes and experiences. In this article, we introduce the Speech Outcome Reporting Taxonomy (SORT), a tool designed to assist with the classification of outcome and experience measures. In a systematic search and review using the SORT, we explore the type and frequency of these measures reported in intervention research addressing phonological impairment in children. Given the integral relationship between intervention fidelity and intervention outcomes, reporting of fidelity is also examined.
    Method: Five literature databases were searched to identify articles written or translated into English published between 1975 and 2020. Using the SORT, outcome and experience measures were extracted and categorized. The number of intervention studies reporting fidelity was determined.
    Results: A total of 220 articles met inclusion criteria. The most frequently reported outcome domain was broad generalization measures (
    Conclusions: The measurement of intervention outcomes is challenging yet important. No single type of measure was reported across all articles. Through using tailored measures closely related to intervention targets in combination with a universal set of measures of intelligibility, the impact of phonological impairment on children's lives, and the experience of receiving and providing intervention, researchers and clinicians could work together to progress insights and innovations in science and practice for children with SSD.

    Abstract This is an opinion piece on the role of POCUS in COVID-19, with a focus on lung ultrasound. It is not an instructional essay. Crisis management in medicine has often been likened to crisis management in the aviation industry. The important difference between pilots and clinicians is that the clinician's life was not in imminent danger, should one fail. The clinician did not have the same emotional urgency as the pilot. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed this, and clinicians are now faced with the need to make urgent decisions whilst exposed to some personal risk. Whether to embrace POCUS and lung ultrasound during this pandemic is an important decision. Whilst there are clear advantages, poorly considered overzealous uptake is not without hazard, opportunity cost and potential risk to patient and clinician.

    Abstract Purpose: Breast cancer (BC) survival favors White versus Black Americans despite advances in screening and treatment. We hypothesized that these differences were dependent upon quality of care by analyzing long-term outcomes of 3139 early BC patients at our quaternary care center where uniform access and management of BC is provided to women irrespective of race.
    Methods: Prospectively collected data for clinical stage I-II BC patients from our quaternary care cancer center were analyzed, focusing on disease-specific survival (DSS). Subgroup analyses included the overall cohort, triple-negative BC (TNBC), non-TNBC and HER2/neu positive patients. Multivariable analyses to evaluate associations of variables with DSS were performed for each subgroup.
    Results: The overall cohort consisted of 3139 BC patients (1159 Black, 1980 White). Black and White patients did not differ by most baseline variables. Black patients had higher rates of TNBC (18% versus 10%, p < 0.0001). Kaplan-Meier analysis of all subgroups (overall, TNBC, non-TNBC, HER2/neu positive) did not reveal DSS differences between Black and White patients. Multivariable analysis of subgroups also did not find race to be associated with DSS.
    Conclusion: In this large, carefully controlled, long term, single-institution prospective cohort study DSS in Black and White early BC patients with equal access to high quality care, did not differ. While BC patients with adverse molecular markers did slightly worse than those with more favorable markers, there is no observable difference between Black and White women with the same markers. These observations support the conclusion that equal access to, and quality, of BC care abolishes racial disparities in DSS.

    Abstract Evidence-based medicine asks us to integrate the best available evidence with clinical experience and patient values.

    Abstract Objectives Transparent reporting of trials is necessary to assess their internal and external validity. Currently, little is known about the quality of reporting in antibiotics trials. Our study investigates the reporting of adverse events, conflicts of interest and funding information in trials of penicillins, cephalosporins and macrolides.Design A secondary analysis of trials included in a convenience sample of three systematic reviews.Methods All randomised controlled trials included in the systematic reviews were included, although duplicates were removed. Eligible trials compared the specified antibiotics to placebo, for any indication. Author pairs independently extracted the data on reporting of adverse events from parent reviews, and data on funding and conflict of interest information from the trial reports. We calculated the overall proportion of trials reporting adverse events, conflict of interest information and funding information, and their proportion before and after the publication of the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) 2001 Statement.Results We included 432 trials. Overall, 62% of trials reported adverse events of any kind, although reporting of deaths or antibiotic resistance was less frequent (20% and 37%, respectively). Conflict-of-interest information was provided in 26% of the trials, and funding information was provided in 66% of the trials. There was no significant difference in reporting of adverse events before and after the publication of CONSORT 2001 Statement (62% vs 62%, p=0.92). Conflict of interest statements were provided more frequently (2% vs 55%, p<0.001) and conflict was present more often (0% vs 14%, p<0.001). There was no difference in the provision of the information about trial funding before (62%) and after (70%) CONSORT 2001 publication.Conclusions Information about adverse events, conflict of interest and funding, remains under-reported in trials of antibiotics.

    Abstract Background: SMART (Self-Management and Recovery Training) Recovery is a mutual-aid program informed by cognitive behaviour therapy and motivational interviewing that provides support for a range of addictive behaviours. SMART Recovery has not been adapted to target young people with addictive behaviours despite the potential to overcome important barriers affecting youth engagement in other addiction programs. This study aimed to engage young people and SMART Recovery facilitators in qualitative interviews and focus groups to explore the potential of such a program and gain specific insights for its development.
    Methods: We conducted qualitative interviews and a focus group with five young people (aged between 14 and 24 years) and eight key stakeholders (including seven SMART Recovery facilitators) to obtain recommendations on how best to reach, engage, and support young people with addictive behaviours in a tailored SMART Recovery program. Qualitative data was transcribed and analysed using iterative categorization.
    Results: Five key themes were identified when developing and delivering youth-targeted SMART Recovery. [1] 'Discussing personal experiences to promote a shared identity' refers to the benefits of creating a forum where personal stories are used to connect with others and validate one's experiences. [2] 'Flexible and patient approach' emphasises a preference for facilitators to take a more gentle, less direct approach that allows for discussion beyond addictive behaviours. [3] 'Balancing information and skills with the space for discussion' acknowledges that youth want to connect in a variety of ways, beyond discussion of addictive behaviours, and that they wish to lead skill sharing and development. [4] 'Conveying a community for youth through language' highlighted the need to focus on connecting youth and to avoid the use of generic language to engage young people. [5] 'Group logistics and competing demands' refers to the logistical considerations of implementing a group program for youth that takes into account their competing demands and group accessibility.
    Conclusion: The findings point to considerations for developing youth specific mutual-aid groups, in particular a youth-targeted SMART Recovery program, such as by ensuring the conversation is youth-led and with an informal and flexible approach to guide group discussion.
