Chitosan/platinum nanocubes/Mn(TPDCA)-modified glassy carbon electrodes for the electrochemical quantification of amlodipine in unprocessed plasma samples.

A novel electrochemical probe is developed to detect amlodipine (AMD) in unprocessed plasma samples. The fabrication process involves the synthesis of platinum nanocubes (Pt NCs) and Mn(TPDCA) complexes, which are then immobilized them onto the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. The developed electrochemical probe demonstrates exceptional detection performance, with a wide dynamic range, outstanding selectivity, and commendable reproducibility.

A ratiometric electrochemical probe for the quantification of apixaban in unprocessed plasma samples using carbon aerogel/BFO modified glassy carbon electrodes.

A novel electrochemical probe was established for the quantification of apixaban (APX) in unprocessed plasma samples. Efficiently oxidized graphene oxide aerogels (EEGO-AGs) and nano-sized BiFeO (BFO) particles were electrodeposited on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). In this work, a ratiometric electrochemical method was introduced for APX detection to enhance the specificity of the probe in plasma samples.

Simultaneous beat-to-beat heart rate and systolic blood pressure variability in patients with and without neurally mediated syncope.

Autonomic changes play an essential role in the genesis of neurally mediated syncope (NMS). The aim of this study was to compare the changes of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) by measuring spectral indices of beat-to-beat systolic blood pressure and heart rate variability (SBPV and HRV) in ranges of low frequency (LF), high frequency (HF), and the LF/HF ratio during head-up tilt test (HUTT) in patients with and without a syncope response. In this case-control study of 46 patients with a suspected history of unexplained syncope, data were recorded separately during the typical three phases of HUTT.

Teaching professionalism in medical residency programs: a scoping review protocol.

Background: Professionalism is a core competency of medical residents in residency programs. Unprofessional behavior has a negative influence on patient safety, quality of care, and interpersonal relationships. The objective of this scoping review is to map the range of teaching methods of professionalism in medical residency programs (in all specialties and in any setting, whether in secondary, primary, or community care settings).

Assessment of the effect of application of an educational wiki in flipped classroom on students' achievement and satisfaction.

Background: Active participation in group assignments is an invaluable way to realize collaborative learning; however, there are several challenges attributed to the traditional way of doing group assignments. This study explores the synergistic effects of flipped classrooms and a wiki-authoring group activity on students' learning outcomes and the quality and quantity of their group-work.

Methods: In this action research, 205 master students of a medical school were involved in a course blended with flipped classrooms.
