Abstract
Social determinants of health (SDOH), the environments and circumstances in which people are born, grow, live, work and age, are potent drivers of health, health disparities, and health outcomes over the lifespan. Military service affords unique experiences, exposures, and social and health vulnerabilities which impact the life course and may alter health equity and health outcomes for older veterans. Identifying and addressing SDOH, inclusive of the military experience, allows person-centered, more equitable care to this vulnerable population. Nurses and other health professionals should be familiar with how to identify and address health-related social needs and implement interdiciplinary, team-based approaches to connect patients with resources and benefits specifically available to veterans.

Abstract
High-stakes, standardized testing has historically impeded education/career attainment for members of underrepresented minority groups and people needing testing accommodations. This study was to understand how high-stakes, standardized testing, particularly the NCLEX-RN, impacts diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in nursing. This study explored the history, context, perspectives surrounding standardized testing, with a focus on the NCLEX-RN. The authors consider content, form, and delivery of testing, including accommodations. They identify available data and data collection gaps relevant to DEI and the NCLEX-RN. No nursing organization published the national data necessary to evaluate/refine the NCLEX-RN from a DEI perspective. Preliminary nursing studies and data from other professions indicated disparities in testing outcomes. Nursing must determine if prospective nurses are experiencing disparities in testing outcomes. The authors highlight opportunities to advance DEI through improved data collection, reformed licensure processes, and the reframing of standardized testing as one of many tools to determine competency.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Effective interprofessional team-based care relies critically on understanding and valuing the role of each team member. Using role reversal with multiple levels of interprofessional education trainees, we developed an in-situ simulation learning experience to enhance team-based care coordination. METHOD A mixed-methods approach was used to examine participants' readiness, perceived value, and attitude toward interprofessional learning using in-situ simulation in the context of role reversal. RESULTS Data collected to explore the attitudes related to collaboration in solving a complex clinical case revealed that trainees valued the interprofessional educational (IPE) experience, perceived simulation-based learning as conducive to understanding professional roles, and recognized the value of a team-based approach to Veteran-centered care. CONCLUSION In-situ simulation using role reversal provides a rich and practical approach for IPE implementation where interdisciplinary role appreciation and team-based care can be promoted.

Abstract
AIMS While behavior-based pelvic floor muscle exercise therapy is an effective treatment for overactive bladder in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, cognitive function may be a predictor of rehabilitation outcomes. METHODS In a planned exploratory analysis, participants who had a Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) with a score ≥18 who were randomized in a clinical trial to behavioral treatment were classified by perceived improvement (Benefit vs. No Benefit) as reported on a validated Satisfaction and Benefit Questionnaire. General cognition (MoCA), motor procedural learning (Serial reaction time task), verbal memory (Buschke delayed recall), spatial memory (Nonverbal/Spatial selective reminding test), and working memory (Wisconsin card sorting task) were compared between the two groups using Wilcoxon rank-sum test. RESULTS Of the 26 participants randomized to behavioral treatment (70% male, mean age 71 ± 6.1 years), 22 participants (85%) reported Benefit and four reported No Benefit. General cognition, motor procedural learning, verbal memory, spatial memory, and working memory did not differ between these groups. While the difference between the time to complete the final practiced series and the random series of the Serial Reaction Time Task (SRTT) was statistically similar between the groups, the Benefit group performed the random sequence more quickly (567.0 ± 136.5 ms) compared to the No Benefit group (959.4 ± 443.0 ms; p = 0.03) and trended toward faster performance in the final practiced series. CONCLUSIONS Perceived benefit from behavioral treatment for overactive bladder was not associated with measures of baseline cognition other than faster completion of the SRTT. This is noteworthy because many behavior-based therapy studies exclude participants with mild cognitive impairment. Additional studies may evaluate if domain-specific cognitive function, particularly the assessment of implicit memory, could lead to individualized behavioral therapy recommendations.

Abstract
AIM Determine the efficacy of behavioral therapy for urinary symptoms in Parkinson's disease. METHODS Randomized trial of behavioral therapy compared with control condition among adults (aged 54-85 years, 74% male, 10% Black/ 83% White) with Parkinson's and greater than or equal to 4 incontinence episodes weekly. Behavioral therapy included pelvic floor muscle exercises, bladder training, fluid and constipation management. Both groups completed bladder diary self-monitoring. Outcomes included diary-derived incontinence and ICIQ-overactive bladder (OAB) score (range, 0-16) with bother and quality of life questionnaires (higher scores = worse outcomes). RESULTS Fifty-three participants randomized and 47 reported 8-week outcomes including 26 behavioral therapy and 21 control. Behavioral vs control participants were similar with respect to age (71.0 ± 6.1 vs 69.7 ± 8.2 years), sex (70% vs 78% male), motor score, cognition, mean weekly incontinence episodes (13.9 ± 9.6 vs 15.1 ± 11.1) and OAB symptoms (8.9 ± 2.4 vs 8.3 ± 2.2). Weekly incontinence reduction was similar between behavioral (-6.2 ± 8.7) and control participants (-6.5 ± 13.8) (P = 0.89). After multiple imputation analysis, behavioral therapy participants reported statistically similar reduction in OAB symptoms compared to control (-3.1 ± 2.8 vs -1.9 ± 2.2, P = 0.19); however quality of life (-22.6 ± 19.1 vs -7.0 ± 18.4, P = 0.048) and bother (-12.6 ± 17.2 vs - 6.7 ± 8.8, P = 0.037) improved significantly more with behavioral therapy. CONCLUSION Self-monitoring resulted in fewer urinary symptoms; however, only multicomponent behavioral therapy was associated with reduced bother and improved quality of life. Providers should consider behavioral therapy as initial treatment for urinary symptoms in Parkinson's disease.

Abstract
Schools of nursing located within academic health centers have embraced expanded opportunities to lead in this era of rapid change and considerable uncertainty in US health care. These schools bear a unique responsibility to work with their clinical nursing partners to advance the care of patients, improve the health of communities and populations, and help steward the nation's health care resources. This article describes how the Emory University Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing has formed and sustained academic-practice partnerships in response to these imperatives. The structures and processes that have supported the partnerships are shared, as are the keys to success in a true partnership. The authors describe the work required to achieve mutually agreed-upon goals, along with the challenges that faculty and health care leaders have faced in their journey to system partnerships.

Abstract
PURPOSE Women are the fastest growing Veteran population in the United States and many receive all or part of their health care outside of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The purpose of this article is to review the healthcare issues of women Veterans and discuss implications for care. DATA SOURCES Review of selected literature, VA resources and guidelines, and expert opinion. CONCLUSIONS Few providers are aware of the impact military service has on the health of women and fail to ask the all-important question, "Have you served in the military?" Recognizing women's military service can reveal important information that can answer perplexing clinical questions, aid in designing comprehensive plans of care, and enable women to receive the assistance needed to address complex physical and psychosocial issues to improve the quality of their lives. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE There are gender disparities related to physical health conditions, mental health issues, environmental exposures, and socioeconomic factors that contribute to female Veterans' vulnerabilities. Many of the health conditions, if recognized in a timely manner, can be ameliorated and shift the health trajectory of this population. Clinicians play a critical role in identifying health risk and helping female Veterans start the sometimes arduous journey toward wellness. Discovering and acknowledging women's military history is critical in ensuring quality care and appropriate decision making.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) has gained increasing attention due to the potential to maximize the benefits of laparoscopic surgery. The aim of this systematic review and pooled analysis was to compare clinical outcome following SILS and standard multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy for the treatment of gallstone-related disease. METHODS An electronic search of Embase and Medline databases for articles from 1966 to 2011 was performed. Publications were included if they were randomised controlled studies in which patients underwent either single-incision or multiport cholecystectomy. The primary outcome measures for the meta-analysis were postoperative complications and postoperative pain score [visual analogue scale (VAS) on the day of surgery]. Secondary outcome measures were operating time and length of hospital stay. Weighted mean difference was calculated for the effect size of SILS on continuous variables, and pooled odds ratios were calculated for discrete variables. RESULTS In total, 375 cholecystectomy operations from 7 randomised controlled trials were included, 195 by single-incision (SILS) and 180 by conventional multiport. Operating time was significantly longer in the SILS group compared to the standard multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy group (weighted mean difference = 2.13; P = 0.0001). There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications, postoperative pain score (VAS), or the length of hospital stay between the two groups. CONCLUSION The results of this meta-analysis demonstrate that single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a safe procedure for the treatment of uncomplicated gallstone disease, with postoperative outcome similar to that of standard multiport laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Future high-powered randomized studies should be focused on elucidating subtle differences in postoperative complications, reported postoperative pain, and cosmesis following SILS cholecystectomy in more severe biliary disease.
