Beyond The Assumption: A Comparison Of Resident And Attending Prescribing Errors In Ambulatory Care, Shana-Kay Lambert-Johnson, Megan Wesling, Keneisha Houston, Isabel Vecino, Tasaduq Mir

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

BACKGROUND: Medication prescribing errors remain a leading cause of preventable patient harm in ambulatory care. This study examined whether the severity, frequency, and distribution of medication prescribing errors differ between residents and attendings in outpatient settings to inform graduate medical education (GME) and system-level medication safety strategies.

METHODS: This retrospective observational study was conducted across a multi-specialty ambulatory care network. Ambulatory medication-related events involving residents and attendings occurring between January 1 and December 31, 2025, were identified through voluntary reporting in a cloud-based risk management system. Events were categorized by prescriber role and classified using the National Coordinating Council for …

Concurrent Hnf1a (Mody3) And Pdxi (Mody4) Variants In A Young Adult And Critical Therapeutic Implications, Shay-Kay Lambert-Johnson, Matthew Doan, Megan Wesling

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

BACKGROUND: Monogenic diabetes accounts for approximately 1–5% of diabetes cases and is frequently misclassified. Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) includes 14 subtypes with distinct pathophysiology and therapeutic implications. Digenic MODY, caused by pathogenic variants in more than one MODY gene, occurs in well under 1% of cases and poses unique diagnostic and management challenges. We report the first known case of concurrent HNF1A (MODY3) and PDX1 (MODY4) mutations, highlighting important clinical and therapeutic considerations.

CASE PRESENTATION: A 19-year-old male with digenic MODY due to MODY3 (HNF1A) and MODY4 (PDX1) mutations presented for team-based adult outpatient diabetes management following transition …

Improving Trauma Resuscitation Through Video Review: A Quality Improvement-Oriented Literature Review, Joshua Smith, Leena Iqbal

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Background Trauma resuscitation is a high-acuity, time-critical environment characterized by diagnostic uncertainty, simultaneous interventions, and complex team dynamics. Despite the widespread adoption of standardized trauma frameworks such as Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS), deviations from best practice and process variability remain common. Trauma video review (TVR) has emerged as a method to objectively evaluate resuscitation performance beyond traditional documentation.

Methods A narrative literature review was conducted of English-language publications examining the use of video recording and structured video review in trauma resuscitation. Peer-reviewed articles and relevant gray literature were identified through database and citation searches. Included works evaluated TVR for …

Efficacy Of Zuranolone In The Treatment Of Postpartum Depression: An Evidence-Based Review, Shana-Kay Lambert-Johnson, Tasaduq Mir

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

BACKGROUND: Postpartum depression (PPD) is a common and potentially severe condition frequently managed in primary care, where delayed treatment adversely affects maternal and infant outcomes. Neuroactive steroid therapies targeting γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors represent a novel therapeutic class. Brexanolone, the first FDA-approved treatment for PPD, required prolonged inpatient administration and was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2025. Zuranolone is currently the only FDA-approved medication specifically indicated for PPD, offering a short-course oral treatment suitable for outpatient use. This review evaluated the efficacy of zuranolone and its applicability in primary care practice.

METHODS: This evidence-based review was conducted in …

Rethinking Acute Pain Management: Evidence For Suzetrigine As An Opioid-Sparing Strategy In Outpatient Care, Shana-Kay Lambert-Johnson, Tasaduq Mir

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

BACKGROUND: The ongoing opioid epidemic underscores the urgent need for effective nonopioid options for acute pain management. Suzetrigine, a selective voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8 inhibitor, represents a mechanistically novel analgesic targeting peripheral nociception and may reduce reliance on opioid therapy. It received FDA approval on January 30, 2025, for the treatment of moderate-to-severe acute pain in adults. This evidence-based review evaluates the efficacy and safety of suzetrigine as an opioid-sparing option for outpatient acute pain management.

METHODS: A structured literature search of PubMed was conducted from database inception through January 2026 using the terms “suzetrigine” and “NaV1.8.” Eligible studies were …

Case Of Enterococcus Faecalis Infective Endocarditis 6-Weeks Following Post-Partum Hemorrhage, Zohaib Nadeem, Mason Goforth, Yasasvi Sabbineni, Sadia Zahid, Yugandhra Devarapalli, Javed Akram, Veeranna Vibhuti

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Peri-partum infective endocarditis (IE) is a rare but serious condition with high maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. IE is exceedingly uncommon in young healthy patients, especially without any known risk factors such as intravenous (IV) drug use, congenital heart disease, or rheumatic heart disease. IE is estimated to complicate 0.00002% of in-hospital deliveries. Similar to the general population, staphylococcal and streptococcal species remain the most common pathogens in obstetric patients. Enterococcal species make up less than 10% of IE cases in pregnant women. Very few cases of enterococcal IE in the post-partum period are reported in the literature. We …

Drug-Induced Acute Interstitial Nephritis Presenting As Severe Acute Kidney Injury Requiring Temporary Hemodialysis, Nihar Raju, Rohit Nair, Vaishnavi Singh, Veeranna Vibhuti

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026

Background: Acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) is an important but often underrecognized cause of acute kidney injury (AKI), accounting for 2–5% of all kidney biopsies and up to 20% of biopsies performed for AKI. Drug-induced AIN is the most common etiology in developed countries, frequently associated with antibiotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and proton pump inhibitors. Classic hypersensitivity features are frequently absent, leading to delayed diagnosis and increased risk of dialysis dependence.

Case Presentation: A 74-year-old male with a history of prostate cancer, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and hypertension presented with progressive exertional dyspnea and was found to have severe AKI without …
