Costas T. Lambrew Research Retreat 2021
BACKGROUND
• Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) may alter body composition by lowering anabolic hormones and increasing inflammation.
Prior studies have found positive, inverse, and null associations of PFAS concentrations with adiposity among children and adolescents.
Few studies have examined associations of PFAS concentrations with changes in body composition longitudinally.
No study has examined the association of PFAS plasma concentrations with lean mass.

Impact Of Bowel Management Guidelines On Documentation And Patient Outcomes In The Intensive Care Unit, Alana Trottier, Paul Blakeslee, Kristiina Hyrkas
Impact Of Bowel Management Guidelines On Documentation And Patient Outcomes In The Intensive Care Unit, Alana Trottier, Paul Blakeslee, Kristiina Hyrkas
Costas T. Lambrew Research Retreat 2021
Introduction
• Bowel management (BM) is an inadvertently overlooked aspect of patient care for critically ill patients who have complex, immediate life-threatening health issues.
• Bowel dysfunction is common with the reported incidence of diarrhea between 3.3%-78% and constipation between 20-83%
• Studies suggest that BM guidelines can standardize care, improve documentation, and impact patient outcomes
• Use of BM guidelines has remained low, probably influenced by clinicians’ resistance to change, resulting in small to moderate improvements and difficulties sustaining new practices
• We anticipated that sustained changes require recognizing clinicians’ current practice, integrating modifications into existing workflow, and engaging …

Costas T. Lambrew Research Retreat 2021
Introduction: There is little information on the basic epidemiologic and serologic profile(s) of the novel SARSCoV- 2 coronavirus especially in HCWs employed in rural settings. We embarked on a period seroprevalence study in the MaineHealth Cancer Network (MHCCN) to document Covid-19 exposure in our rural cancer care workforce. Our fundamental hypothesis is that despite implementing procedures to safeguard patients and the use of appropriate PPE in the care of known source patients/PUIs in both the inpatient and outpatient cancer care settings a small, but not insignificant number of cancer care providers (hereafter referred to as cancer HCWs) will have evidence …
