Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the accumulation of lipids and leukocytes within the arterial wall. By studying the aortic transcriptome of atherosclerosis-prone apolipoprotein E (ApoE) mice, we aimed to identify novel players in the progression of atherosclerosis.
Methods: RNA-Seq analysis was performed on aortas from ApoE and wild-type mice.

Background: To fully implement the internationally acknowledged requirements for teaching in evidence-based practice, and support the student's development of core competencies in evidence-based practice, educators at professional bachelor degree programs in healthcare need a systematic overview of evidence-based teaching and learning interventions. The purpose of this overview of systematic reviews was to summarize and synthesize the current evidence from systematic reviews on educational interventions being used by educators to teach evidence-based practice to professional bachelor-degree healthcare students and to identify the evidence-based practice-related learning outcomes used.
Methods: An overview of systematic reviews.
Background: Evidence-Based Practice is recognized as a standard practice and a core competence for clinical healthcare professionals and therefore educators' competences in teaching Evidence-Based Practice are essential. Yet only little is known about the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and teaching practices around Evidence-Based Practice among educators of Danish undergraduate healthcare students.
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to describe: 1) the Evidence-Based Practice profiles regarding attitudes, knowledge, skills, and teaching practices among educators who teach in undergraduate healthcare educations; 2) the current state of teaching Evidence-Based Practice in undergraduate program curricula; 3) the perceived barriers and facilitators to teach Evidence-Based Practice; and 4) the educators` needs regarding teaching Evidence-Based Practice.
This study identified barriers and facilitators associated with providing culturally responsive care for sexual and gender minority (SGM) patients at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) in the United States, from the perspective of clinical leadership. Between July and December 2018, 23 semistructured, in-depth qualitative interviews were held with clinical leaders representing six FQHCs residing in rural and urban settings. Stakeholders included Chief Executive Officer, Executive Director, Chief Medical Officer, Medical Director, Clinic Site Director, and Nurse Manager positions.
