Patient, provider, and system factors associated with failure to follow-up elevated glucose results in patients without diagnosed diabetes.
Patient, provider, and system factors associated with failure to follow-up elevated glucose values in electronic medical records (EMRs) are not well described. The researchers conducted a chart review in a comprehensive EMR with a patient portal and results management features but found no associations between patient characteristics, diabetes risk factors, or provider characteristics and follow-up failures.

Clinical correlates of acute bipolar depressive episode with psychosis.
The aim of this study was to identify the characteristics of depressed bipolar patients with current psychosis compared to those without psychosis. Results showed that psychosis was present in 10.6% of the studied depressed patients. Psychotic patients had less education, lower income, and were more frequently single and unemployed. Psychosis was also associated with a more severe depressive episode, higher suicidality, more comorbid conditions and worse functioning. Most group differences disappeared when controlling for depression severity.
