Objective: Medical tourism, a form of patient mobility across international borders to seek medical services, has gained significant momentum. We aimed to assess the outcomes of medical tourism consultations on chronic diseases, more specifically diabetes mellitus, amongst a cohort of international patients, originating from different healthcare systems, and referred to the United States for medical care. Methods: We identified international adults with established diabetes mellitus, referred globally from 6 countries to the United States between 2010 and 2016 for medical care, and were seen at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF). Group 1 included adults seen by an endocrinology provider during their CCF medical stay, whilst group 2 included those not seen by an endocrinology provider. To assess the impact of our consultations, changes in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) were assessed between visit(s). Results: Our study included 1,108 subjects (771 in group 1, 337 in group 2), with a mean age (± SD) of 61.3 ± 12.7 years, 62% male, and a median medical stay of 136 days (interquartile range: 57, 660). Compared to group 2, group 1 had a higher baseline mean HbA1c (8.0 ± 1.8% [63.9 mmol/mol] vs. 7.1 ± 1.4% [54.1 mmol/mol]; P<.001). After 1 visit with endocrinology, there was a significant decrease in mean HbA1c from 8.44 ± 1.98% (68.3 mmol/mol) to 7.51 ± 1.57% (58.5 mmol/mol) ( P<.001). Greatest reductions in mean HbA1c were −1.47% (95% CI: −2.21, −0.74) and −1.27% (95% CI: −1.89, −0.66) after 3 and 4 visits, respectively ( P<.001). Conclusion: Short-term diabetes mellitus consultations, in the context of medical tourism, are effective.

Pediatric Residency

Background and Objectives. We have required residents in pediatrics at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation to give research presentations since 1989; this article reviews our experience with this program. Additionally, we sought to determine how many other accredited ted pediatric programs in the United States also require this. Methods. Retrospective review of the Cleveland Clinic program; descriptive statistics of other United States residency programs, obtained by questionnaire. Results. Pediatric residents at the Cleveland Clinic have given 108 research presentations since 1989, and have developed 33 (30.5%) of them into manuscripts or abstracts. We mailed questionnaires to 215 pediatric recidency program directors and received responses from 177 (82%). Of these, 48 (27%) indicated their programs had a research requirement; residents could present their findings in departmental meetings or submit an abstract or manuscript to a professional society or journal. Respondents cited several barriers to research: residents are too busy, there are too few faculty members to mentor them, financial resources are limited, and there is no residency review committee requirement. Conclusions. Even though only approximately one fourth of the pediatric residency programs in the United States require research, we feel it is worthwhile experience. Despite barriers, residents can and do perform research and publish their findings.

The City

The plague suppressive campaign which is now drawing to a close in San Francisco has been conducted almost entirely on the principle that the great factor in the spread and continuance of the disease is the rat. The fact that the epidemic among human beings ceased within four months after the beginning of active operations and that in spite of the distribution of the disease in almost every quarter of the city, only one hundred and fifty-nine cases, with seventy-seven deaths occurred, proves the wisdom of this policy. The campaign has been conducted by the United States Public Health and Marine Hospital Service.

Wide Acceptance

In the 1970s, Japanese cooks began to appear in the kitchens of nouvelle cuisine chefs in France for further training, with scores more arriving in the next decades. Paul Bocuse, Alain Chapel, Joël Robuchon, and other leading French chefs started visiting Japan to teach, cook, and sample Japanese cuisine, and ten of them eventually opened restaurants there. In the 1980s and 1990s, these chefs' frequent visits to Japan and the steady flow of Japanese stagiaires to French restaurants in Europe and the United States encouraged a series of changes that I am calling the “Japanese turn,” which found chefs at fine-dining establishments in Los Angeles, New York City, and later the San Francisco Bay Area using an ever-widening array of Japanese ingredients, employing Japanese culinary techniques, and adding Japanese dishes to their menus. By the second decade of the twenty-first century, the wide acceptance of not only Japanese ingredients and techniques but also concepts like umami (savory tastiness) and shun (seasonality) suggest that Japanese cuisine is now well known to many American chefs.
