    Radujkovic, 2020, Germany Controls: COVID-19 outpatients, N=92, Median age=56 Subjects: COVID-19 inpatients, N=93, Median age=63 Median: 18.6 vs. 14.6 ng/mL, p=0.001 Adjusted by age, gender, and comorbidities, VDD (<12 ng/mL) was associated with invasive mechanical ventilation and death (HR 6.12 and 14.73, respectively. p<0.001 for both).
    Luo, 2020, China Controls: Non-severe COVID-19, N=261, Median age=54.0 Subjects: Severe COVID-19, N=74, Median age=62.5 Median: 11.0 vs. 9.24 ng/mL, p<0.0001 Adjusted by sex, age, comorbidities, BMI, smoking status, and vitamin D status, VDD (<12 mg/L) was associated with COVID-19 severity (OR 2.72, 95% CI 1.23–6.01, p=0.014), but VDD was not associated with mortality (p=1.0).

    Jain, 2020, India Controls: Asymptomatic COVID-19, N=91, Mean age=42.34 Subjects: Severely ill COVID-19, N=63, Mean age=51.41 Mean: 27.89 vs. 14.35 ng/mL, p=0.0001 Fatality rate for VDD (<20 ng/mL) higher than that for normal 25(OH)D (21.1% vs. 31.1%, p-value NR).
    Macaya, 2020, Spain Controls: Non-severe COVID-19, N=49, Median age=63 Subjects: Severe COVID-19, N=31, Median age=75 Median: 19 vs. 13 ng/mL, p=0.145 Adjusted by age, gender, obesity, cardiac disease, and CKD, VDD (<20 ng/mL) did not significantly predict higher risk of developing severe COVID-19 (OR 3.2, 95% CI 0.9–11.4, p=0.07).
    Ye, 2020, China Controls: Mild/moderate COVID-19, N=50, Median age=39 Subjects: Severe/critical COVID-19, N=10, Median age=65 Median: 22.64 vs. 15.28 ng/mL, p<0.05 Multivariate analysis including VDD, age, sex, renal failure, diabetes, and HTN: Statistically significant association between VDD (<20 ng/mL) and severe/critical COVID-19 disease (OR 15.18, 95% CI 1.23–187.45).

    ‘if somethings like stuck out’
    ‘just knowing that that’s helpful for them or that they would appreciate the critique…just sensing someone’s openness or reception to wanting to learn and improve in different ways impacts my willingness’
    ‘if you have a really positive experience or a really negative experience then you may think to fill it out’     		‘I don’t think I’ve known that people want feedback necessarily’

    * degree of specificity
    * degree of timeliness     		‘if you’re giving positive feedback…you hope that the person that you are writing about actually sees it because you want them to know that they’re appreciated’ ‘questions where it’s like give me an example…then I have to rack through my memory of the past month that you’ve been on service’
    ‘I would be hesitant to give that exact situation because then they would know who gave that feedback’
    ‘you’re thinking of one specific scenario but I don’t know where that fits in these like 3 questions that they ask about…it’s like you’re trying to fit your feedback into a mold that didn’t really go together’
    ‘you are given a random evaluation and you haven’t worked with that person in like a month’
    NNP-Evaluation Relationship
    * knowledge of evaluator role and value (to trainee and to program)
    * knowledge of evaluation process and outcomes
    * time constraints, interruptions, unprotected time     		‘I just think that our feedback because we are in a different role is also invaluable because you will be working with other nurse practitioners in community hospitals, other nurses in community hospitals, rather than other attendings 24–7.’
    ‘it’s very important to have the bedside nurse and NNP…join in on that conversation because you’re not just communicating with consultants and you’re not just communicating with other attendings…you speak to an attending differently than how you speak to a NNP or bedside RN…so I feel like having a bedside RN and NNP weigh in on what you’re doing is important’     		‘I guess I’ve never been explicitly…told about it or that we do have a role in that’
    ‘in the case of constructive criticism, it’s helpful if it’s very explicit in where it goes and who’s name is on what so you at least do that in full awareness of what maybe could be the implications of the criticism you are giving’
    ‘the simplest answer is no, I do not know the process for giving feedback’
    ‘we get bombarded with evaluations all the time’
    ‘we are inundated with a bunch of evaluations with absolutely everything we do’
    ‘everybody thinks like if I give this negative feedback, something bad is going to happen’
    NNP Characteristics
    * preferred evaluation and feedback strategies
    * new to role, knowledge of own role, knowledge of culture/system     		‘if it were simplified and we can just…have a place where there is eval forms…like ok I really have something to say about this person, I don’t want to wait for an evaluation to come out, I can go online and I can click on this tab and I can fill [it] out’
    ‘more years into the role, like I can see the differences in where a fellow stands and where they are in their career and how well they do their job’     		‘I prefer to do it verbally, in person.’
    ‘I feel like verbal feedback is way easier, quicker, gets the point across.’
    ‘I…haven’t found a way to give…constructive criticism, partly because I am trying to figure things out myself’
    ‘it’s because I was a newer NNP…so I wasn’t comfortable, and didn’t really know the ropes, I guess, as far as what should be done…what should be expected’

    Significantly altered pathways after EP treatment 24 hours after TBI. Pathways with >1 metabolite hit and >0 impact score. Table sorted by Holm p value. A metabolite hit is defined as a significantly altered metabolite in the pathway of interest. The pathway impact is calculated as the sum of the importance measures of the matched metabolites normalized by the sum of the importance measures of all metabolites. Acetyl-CoA is seen as a key metabolite present in multiple pathways.
