Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism in patients with atrial fibrillation: findings from the ORBIT-AF (Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation) registry.
Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) therapy may be beneficial to patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), but little is known about their use in patients with AF and subsequent outcomes. In order to better understand MRA use and subsequent outcomes, the investigators performed a retrospective cohort study of the contemporary ORBIT-AF (Outcomes Registry for Better Informed Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation) registry.

It's up to you: a multi-message, phased driver facility campaign to increase organ donation registration rates in Illinois.
This project applied successful strategies previously employed in driver facility campaigns to examine whether these strategies would be effective in growing a registry where the majority of individuals have already had the opportunity to register as an organ donor. In facilities with historically high and low registration percentages, these strategies resulted in higher organ donor registration rates, compared with control facilities.
