Abstract
Palatine tonsils are secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) representing the first line of immunological defense against inhaled or ingested pathogens. We generated an atlas of the human tonsil composed of >556,000 cells profiled across five different data modalities, including single-cell transcriptome, epigenome, proteome, and immune repertoire sequencing, as well as spatial transcriptomics. This census identified 121 cell types and states, defined developmental trajectories, and enabled an understanding of the functional units of the tonsil. Exemplarily, we stratified myeloid slan-like subtypes, established a BCL6 enhancer as locally active in follicle-associated T and B cells, and identified SIX5 as putative transcriptional regulator of plasma cell maturation. Analyses of a validation cohort confirmed the presence, annotation, and markers of tonsillar cell types and provided evidence of age-related compositional shifts. We demonstrate the value of this resource by annotating cells from B cell-derived mantle cell lymphomas, linking transcriptional heterogeneity to normal B cell differentiation states of the human tonsil.

Abstract
We describe the experience of integrating COVID-19 screening and testing into a mobile TB screening unit in Lima, Peru. All attendees received chest radiographs, which were analysed using CAD4TB and CAD4COVID; Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra was used to test for TB, and antibody and polymerase
chain reaction (PCR) for SARS-CoV-2. One Xpert-positive TB case was diagnosed per 168 people screened, one person with SARS-CoV-2 antibodies per 3 people screened, and one PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection per 8 people screened. Integrated screening can help to avoid delays in the diagnosis
of both TB and COVID-19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prescribing potentially inappropriate medications to the elderly leads to adverse health outcomes. The use of computer systems decision making tools has been shown to decrease the incidence of prescribing potentially inappropriate medications for the elderly; however, these results are often dependent upon other variables, such as provider compliance. OBJECTIVE To examine and synthesize the best available evidence related to the effect of computer systems clinical decision making tools on frequency of ordering potentially inappropriate medications at discharge and related unplanned emergency room visits or hospital readmissions in community dwelling patients older than 65 years of age. INCLUSION CRITERIA Adults older than 65 years of age prescribed potentially inappropriate medications.Types of interventions Electronic or computer based clinical decision making supplement or support related to prescribing of potentially inappropriate medications.The outcome measures were frequency of ordering potentially inappropriate medications (PIMs) for patients at discharge, unexpected hospital readmission rate and unexpected emergency room visits of patients who were discharged on PIMs.Randomised control trials and quasi-experimental studies. SEARCH STRATEGY The search strategy aimed to find both published and unpublished studies in the English language from January 2003 through July 2011. A search of PubMED, CINAHL, Health Source Nursing/Academic Edition, MasterFILE Premier, Scopus, DARE, Academic Search Premier, Scirus, Embase was conducted. METHODOLOGICAL QUALITY Studies were critically evaluated by two independent reviewers using standardised critical appraisal instruments from the Joanna Briggs Institute. DATA COLLECTION Data were extracted using the standardised data extraction instruments from the Joanna Briggs Institute. DATA SYNTHESIS Results from quantitative papers were pooled in statistical meta-analysis as appropriate using JBI-MAStARI. Where statistical pooling was not possible, the findings are presented in narrative form. RESULTS A total of five articles, four randomised control studies and one quasi-experimental study were included. One study demonstrated that a computerised alert tool along with collaboration of the health care providers resulted in a statistically significant (p=0.002) decrease in ordering of PIMs as well as improved medication safety in patients older than 65 years of age. Similarly, a randomised controlled study demonstrated that computerised physician order entry with decision support significantly (p=0.02) reduced prescribing of PIMs for seniors (odds ratio=0.55, 95% CI=0.34 - 0.89). Another study demonstrated that computer-based access to complete drug profiles and alerts reduced the rate of initiation of potentially inappropriate prescriptions by 18% (RR=0.82, 95% CI=0.69-0.98). Yet another study demonstrated that implementation of age specific alerts decreases prescription writing of PIMs from 21.9 prescriptions to 16.8 per 10,000 patients; p value < 0.01. One study demonstrated that age specific alerts reduced prescribing of PIMs from 150.2 to 137.2 prescriptions per 10,000 patients; the p value = 0.75 was not statistically significant. Results from two trials were pooled for meta-analysis, with summary RR = 0.82, and 95%CI (0.76 - 0.88). No studies were found that specifically addressed unexpected hospital readmission or unexpected visits to the emergency room of patients who were discharged on PIMs. CONCLUSIONS Reduction in prescribing of potentially inappropriate medications occurs when clinical decision making computer support tools, such as drug specific alerts, are available to providers.Computer systems clinical decision making tools have potential for reducing numbers of potentially inappropriate medications prescribed for the community based population older than 65 years of age.Future research should continue to explore the effects of computerized clinical decision making tools on prescription writing habits of practitioners for the elderly population. In addition, documentation of unplanned ER visits and unplanned readmission rates needs to be correlated with the use of potentially inappropriate medications.
