Reliability and meaningful change of the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System(®) Itch Questionnaire (PIQ) item banks in adults with atopic dermatitis.
The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Itch Questionnaire (PIQ), includes a suite of patient-reported outcome measures to assess the burden of itch in adults. In this study, the investigators sought to determine the smallest detectable change (SDC), threshold for meaningful improvement and test–retest reliability of PIQ item banks for assessing the burden of itch in adult AD.

Application of the Third International Consensus Definitions for Sepsis (Sepsis-3) Classification: a retrospective population-based cohort study.
The Consensus Definitions present clinical criteria for the classification of patients with sepsis. Researchers investigated incidence and long-term outcomes of patients diagnosed with these classifications, which are currently unknown. Their findings support the use of the elevated sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score from Sepsis-3, and elevated quick SOFA (qSOFA) score from Sepsis-3 classifications to identify patients with infection who are at elevated risk of poor outcomes.
