How Culture is Understood in Faculty Development in the Health Professions: A Scoping ReviewPurpose: To examine the ways in which culture is conceptualized in faculty development (FD) in the health professions. Method: The authors searched PubMed, Web of Science, ERIC, and CINAHL, as well as the reference lists of identified publications, for articles on culture and FD published between 2006 and 2018. Based on inclusion criteria developed iteratively, they screened all articles. A total of 955 articles...
The New England Journal of Medicine: Search Results in Emergency MedicineAlgorithm-Aided Prediction of Patient Preferences — An Ethics Sneak PeekThe use of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly common in medicine, as it is in other fields. Just as AI systems using natural language processing answer legal questions, predict court decisions, and prepare contracts, and as self-driving cars gather traffic information so they can make and…The New England Journal of Medicine: Search Results in Emergency...

Musical training sharpens behavioral tuning more saliently than peripheral tuningMusical training appears to enhance performance at both peripheral and central auditory sites. We compared behavioral and peripheral frequency tuning in normal-hearing musicians and nonmusicians, whose native language is Mandarin. The results indicate that, at higher probe frequencies, musical training sharpens behavioral tuning more saliently than peripheral tuning. The improved peripheral tuning for musician appears...
Tumour‐suppressive circRNAs: Mechanisms underlying their suppression of tumour occurrence and use...
Tumour‐suppressive circRNAs: Mechanisms underlying their suppression of tumour occurrence and use as therapeutic targetsAbstract Circular RNAs (circRNAs) exhibit a covalently closed circular conformation and are structurally stable. Those circRNAs with tumour‐suppressive properties play an important role in tumorigenesis and metastasis and thus may be used as therapeutic targets of cancers. Here, we review the current understandings of the classification of circRNAs and summarise the functions and...
Voice , Self-Assessment of Vocal Fatigue in Muscle Tension Dysphonia and Vocal Nodules: A Preliminary Analysis of the Discriminatory Potential of the Croatian Adaptation of the Vocal Fatigue Index (VFI-C)Publication date: Available online 9 October 2019Source: Journal of VoiceAuthor(s): Ana Bonetti, Luka Bonetti, Ozana ČipčićABSTRACTIn this paper the authors hypothesize that the intensity of subjective experience of vocal fatigue (VF) potentially reflects primary (hyper) functional vocal disorders...
The Journal of Nuclear Medicine (JNM) , Preoperative localisation of adenomas in primary hyperparathyroidism: the value of 11C-choline PET/CT in patients with negative or discordant ultrasonography and 99mTc-Sesta-MIBI-SPECT/CTPurpose: We aimed to assess the value of 11C-choline positron emission tomography (PET) in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) with negative or discordant results in methoxyisobutylisonitrile (MIBI) imaging and neck ultrasound. Methods: Eighty-seven patients with...
JoVE: Journal of Visualized ExperimentsImpact of High-intensity Interval Exercise and Moderate-Intensity Continuous Exercise on the Cardiac Troponin T Level at an Early Stage of TrainingHere, we present protocols of high-intensity interval and moderate-intensity continuous exercise to observe the response of circulating cardiac troponin T (cTnT) concentration to acute exercise over 10 days. The information may assist with clinical interpretations of post-exercise cTnT elevation and guide the prescription...

Journal of Neurosurgical Anesthesiology - Effect of General Anesthetics on Caspase-3 Levels in Patients With Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Preliminary StudyBackground: General anesthesia has been associated with neuronal apoptosis and activation of caspases. Apoptosis is a crucial factor in early brain injury following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). We conducted a double-blind, prospective, randomized pilot study to evaluate the effect of 4 anesthetic agents on cerebrospinal fluid...
Allergy , ILC3 Deficiency and Generalized ILC Abnormalities in DOCK8 Deficient PatientsAbstract Background Dedicator of cytokinesis 8 (DOCK8) deficiency is the main cause of the autosomal recessive hyper IgE syndrome (HIES). We previously reported the selective loss of group 3 innate lymphoid cell (ILC) number and function in a Dock8‐deficient mouse model. In this study, we sought to test whether DOCK8 is required for the function and maintenance of ILC subsets in humans. Methods Peripheral blood...
Intra-Arterial Injection of Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Improves Viability of the Random Component of Axial Skin Flaps in Nude Mice: Skin flap necrosis is a common postoperative complication in reconstructive surgery. Recent evidence suggests that subcutaneously injected adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) increase the viability of random skin flaps. Here, we examined whether intra-arterial human ASC administration could improve random component survival of axial skin flaps in nude mice.
A Novel Way for Upper Eyelid Rejuvenation by Combination of Local Fat-Fascia-Muscle Flap Repositioning for Middle-Aged Asian Women: Upper eyelid aging is common among middle-aged Asians. Apart from skin aging, there has been an increasing recognition for the role of sunken eyelid playing in upper eyelid aging. Various methods have been developed to deal with the upper eyelid volume deflation. However, autologous fat tissue could not achieve stable and satisfying rejuvenation results, especially for...
