The effects of consuming a diet high in fructose,compared to a diet high in glucose, on the rate ofhepatic de novo lipogenesis (DNL) in overweightand obese individuals were studied. Thesesubjects were given a diet in which either glucoseor fructose was substituted for 25% of their energyrequirements for 10 weeks. During the fasted state,subjects’ DNL for those on a glucose and fructosediet were similar. However, in the fed state, DNLwas increased significantly in subjects given afructose diet. This suggests that consuming adiet from fructose-sweetened beverages increases DNL.

    Emergency medicine residents are required to accurately log all procedures, yet it is estimated that many procedures are not logged. Traditional procedure logging platforms are often cumbersome and may contribute to procedures not being logged or being logged inaccurately. We designed a mobile procedure logging application (app) that uses quick response (QR) codes to input patient information quickly and accurately. The app integrates with our current procedure log database while maintaining information privacy standards. It scans the QR code displayed for patient identification, automatically extracting pertinent patient information. The user selects the procedure performed and the app uses data analytics to recommend logging other related procedures.

    A mobile procedure logging app using QR codes decreases time needed to log procedures and eliminates data entry errors. Improving the speed and convenience of procedure logging may decrease the discrepancy between performed and logged procedures. A similar app can be integrated into any residency program and may improve assessment of resident procedural competency.
