Summary
The seven core principles of primary care, including person-centeredness and accessibility, are crucial for healthcare reform. These principles offer a unified voice for defining primary care
Area of Science:
- Health Services Research
- Primary Care Medicine
- Healthcare Policy
Background:
- The U.S. healthcare system is undergoing significant transformation.
- The foundational role of primary care is increasingly recognized.
- The Joint Principles of the Patient-Centered Medical Home are over a decade old.
Purpose of the Study:
- To identify and articulate seven essential shared principles of primary care.
- To provide a unified framework for discussing primary care's value.
- To support ongoing healthcare delivery reform.
Main Methods:
- Consensus building among multiple stakeholders.
- Iterative and collaborative process.
- Dynamic refinement of core principles.
Main Results:
- Seven shared principles of primary care have been identified.
- These principles are: person and family centered, continuous, comprehensive and equitable, team-based and collaborative, coordinated and integrated, accessible, and high value.
- These principles offer a unified voice for stakeholders.
Conclusions:
- The seven shared principles provide a robust foundation for healthcare reform.
- They define the enduring essence and value of primary care.
- Adoption of these principles can guide future healthcare policy and practice.

03:24Common Ion Effect
46.4K
Compared with pure water, the solubility of an ionic compound is less in aqueous solutions containing a common ion (one also produced by dissolution of the ionic compound). This is an example of a phenomenon known as the common ion effect, which is a consequence of the law of mass action that may be explained using Le Châtelier’s principle. Consider the dissolution of silver iodide:

Werner Heisenberg considered the limits of how accurately one can measure properties of an electron or other microscopic particles. He determined that there is a fundamental limit to how accurately one can measure both a particle’s position and its momentum simultaneously. The more accurate the measurement of the momentum of a particle is known, the less accurate the position at that time is known and vice versa. This is what is now called the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. He...

Initiating translation is complex because it involves multiple molecules. Initiator tRNA, ribosomal subunits, and eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are all required to assemble on the initiation codon of mRNA. This process consists of several steps that are mediated by different eIFs.
First, the initiator tRNA must be selected from the pool of elongator tRNAs by eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2). The initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAi) has conserved sequence elements including modified bases at...

Diploid organisms have two alleles of each gene, one from each parent, in their somatic cells. Therefore, each individual contributes two alleles to the gene pool of the population. The gene pool of a population is the sum of every allele of all genes within that population and has some degree of variation. Genetic variation is typically expressed as a relative frequency, which is the percentage of the total population that has a given allele, genotype or phenotype.

The arrangement of electrons in the orbitals of an atom is called its electron configuration. We describe an electron configuration with a symbol that contains three pieces of information:
