Abstract
Objectives: Electronic health records (EHRs) have transformed the way modern medicine is practiced, but they remain a major source of documentation burden among physicians. This study aims to use data from Signal, a tool provided by the Epic EHR, to analyze physician metadata in the Montefiore Health System via cluster analysis to assess EHR burden and efficiency. Methods: Data were obtained for a one-month period (July 2020) representing a return to normal operation post-telemedicine implementation. Six metrics from Signal were used to phenotype physicians: time on unscheduled days, pajama time, time outside of 7 AM to 7 PM, turnaround time, proficiency score, and visits closed the same day. k-Means clustering was employed to group physicians, and the clusters were assessed overall and by sex and specialty. Results: Our results demonstrate the partitioning of physicians into a higher-efficiency, lower-time outside of scheduled hours (TOSH) cluster and a lower-efficiency, higher-TOSH cluster even when stratified by sex and specialty. Intra-cluster comparisons showed general homogeneity of physician metrics with the exception of the higher-efficiency, lower-TOSH cluster when stratified by sex. Conclusions: Taken together, the clusters uniquely reflect the EHR efficiency-burden of the Montefiore Health System. Applying k-means clustering to readily available EHR data allows for a scalable, efficient, and adaptable approach of assessing physician EHR burden and efficiency, allowing health systems to examine documentation trends and target wellness interventions.

Abstract
This paper studies a system of nonlinear fractional differential equations (FDEs) with deviated arguments. Many linear and nonlinear problems are faced in the real-life. Generally, linear problems are solved quickly, but some difficulties appear while solving nonlinear problems. Our purpose is to approximate those solutions numerically via the Adomian decomposition method (ADM). Here, our main goal is to apply the ADM to solve higher-order nonlinear system of FDEs with deviated arguments. We prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution using Banach contraction principle. Moreover, we plot the figures of ADM solutions using MATLAB.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To review the current literature on early penile prosthesis implantation in patients with refractory ischemic priapism (IP). ACQUISITION OF EVIDENCE A systematic search for the terms "penile prosthesis", "priapism", "impotence", "fibrosis", "downsized prosthesis cylinders", and "patient satisfaction" has been carried out in PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane, SCOPUS and Science Citation Index databases. SYNTHESIS OF EVIDENCE Cavernosal tissue damage in IP is time related. Conservative measures and aspiration with or without intracorporeal instillation of α-adrenergic agonists are usually successful in the early stages. Shunt surgery in patients remains debatable, as the lack of response to aspiration and instillation of α-adrenergic agonists indicates that irreversible changes in the cavernosal smooth muscle are likely to have already occurred. Immediate penile prosthesis implantation in patients with refractory IP settles the priapic episode, maintains the long term rigidity necessary to engage in penetrative sexual intercourse and prevents the otherwise inevitable penile shortening. Although complication rates after penile prosthesis implantation in acute priapism are higher than in virgin cases, they are still lower than after implantation in patients with severe corporal fibrosis due to chronic priapism. Regardless of the complication rates, penile prosthesis implantation in refractory IP should be preferred as it allows the preservation of penile length, which is one of the main factors influencing postoperative patient's satisfaction following surgery.
