DNA as a Genetic Template02:05

DNA as a Genetic Template

27.4K
Two structural features of the DNA molecule provide a basis for the mechanisms of heredity: the four nucleotide bases and its double-stranded nature. The Watson-Crick model of double-helical DNA structure, proposed in 1952, drew heavily upon the X-ray crystallography work of researchers Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins. Watson, Crick, and Wilkins jointly received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their work in 1962. Franklin was, controversially, excluded from the prize for...

Lattice Centering and Coordination Number

11.4K
The structure of a crystalline solid, whether a metal or not, is best described by considering its simplest repeating unit, which is referred to as its unit cell. The unit cell consists of lattice points that represent the locations of atoms or ions. The entire structure then consists of this unit cell repeating in three dimensions. The three different types of unit cells present in the cubic lattice are illustrated in Figure 1.

Radiological Investigation I: X-ray and CT

1.1K
Radiological investigations, including X-rays and computed tomography (CT) scans, are critical for diagnosing and evaluating various medical conditions. These imaging techniques provide valuable insights into the body's internal structures, aiding in the detection of abnormalities, assessment of disease progression, and development of treatment strategies. This article delves into two primary radiological investigations, chest X-rays and CT scans, outlining their purpose, procedures, and...

Center of Gravity

6.6K
The center of gravity (COG) of an object is the point where the object's total weight is considered to be concentrated. Knowing the location of the center of gravity is useful when predicting the behavior of a moving object or designing static structures. In a uniform gravitational field, the center of gravity is similar to the center of mass (COM); yet, these two points can be positioned differently. For example, the Moon's center of mass lies very close to its geometric center, but...

Center of Gravity

2.1K
The center of gravity is the point at which an object's weight appears to be concentrated and can be used to balance the object perfectly. This point is essential in mechanics as it provides information regarding a body's stability and moments of inertia. The center of gravity does not always have to fall within the shape or boundaries of the body; it may also lie outside the body in certain cases.
To determine its location, the principle of moments can be utilized by dividing the object into...

Area of Science:

  • Radiology
  • Quality Improvement
  • Health Informatics

Background:

  • Variability in radiology report templates can confuse referrers and patients, hindering effective communication of imaging study results.
  • Standardizing report templates is crucial for improving clarity and consistency in academic medical centers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To implement and evaluate a quality improvement initiative focused on reducing variation in radiology report templates.
  • To harmonize institutional radiology report templates across a large, multisite academic practice.

Main Methods:

  • A multisite, multidivision academic radiology practice with over 820,000 annual examinations initiated the project.
  • An oversight committee and 24 work groups reviewed and harmonized all institutional radiology report templates from September 2017 to May 2018.
  • Primary outcome: percentage reduction in templates. Secondary outcome: monthly adherence to harmonized templates over 9 months.

Main Results:

  • The initiative reduced 19,687 baseline templates to 597 harmonized templates, a 97% decrease (p < 0.001).
  • Radiologist adherence to harmonized templates ranged from 88.0% to 100% and remained consistent over 9 months (p = 0.23).

Conclusions:

  • A radiology report harmonization initiative successfully reduced template volume by 97% at a large academic center.
  • The initiative achieved sustained high radiologist adherence to harmonized templates, improving reporting consistency.
