Remediation in Pediatric Residency Training: A National Survey of Pediatric Program Directors.

Background: The goal of graduate medical education is for residents to achieve the skills and knowledge to practice medicine independently. While remediation is not uncommon in residency training, evidence is lacking to guide best practices.

Methods: We conducted a national survey of pediatric residency programs regarding their remediation experiences identifying struggling residents, documentating the process, and monitoring progress during remediation.

Characterization of Bifidobacterium bifidum growth and metabolism on whey protein phospholipid concentrate.

Whey protein phospholipid concentrate (WPPC) is a co-product generated during the manufacture of whey protein isolate. WPPC is depleted of simple sugars but contains numerous glycoconjugates embedded in the milk fat globule membrane, suggesting this fraction may serve as a carbon source for growth of bifidobacteria commonly enriched in breast fed infants. In this work, we demonstrate that WPPC can serve as a sole carbon source for the growth of Bifidobacterium bifidum, a species common to the breastfed infant and routinely used as a probiotic.

Exercise as a Therapeutic Strategy to Improve Cerebrovascular Function and Cognition in Breast Cancer Survivors: A Scoping Review.

Breast cancer is the most diagnosed cancer globally. While the breast cancer prevalence continues to rise, so too do patient survival rates, thus resulting in a large survivor population. Up to 75% of this population report experiencing cancer-related cognitive impairment during their cancer journey, thus reducing their quality of survivorship.

Designing, implementing and evaluating multidisciplinary healthcare training programmes in the wartime humanitarian context of Ukraine.

Introduction: Civilian healthcare workers (HCW) and medical facilities are directly and indirectly impacted by armed conflict. In the Russia-Ukraine war, acute trauma care needs grew, the workforce was destabilised by HCW migrating or shifting roles to meet conflict needs, and facilities faced surge events. Chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive (CBRNE) exposure risks created unique preparedness needs.

Rare earth benzene tetraanion-bridged amidinate complexes.

The benzene tetraanion-bridged rare earth inverse arene amidinate complexes [{Ln(κ:η-Piso)}(μ-η:η-CH)] (2-Ln, Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy, Y; Piso = {(NDipp)C Bu}, Dipp = CH Pr-2,6) were prepared by the reduction of parent Ln(iii) bis-amidinate halide precursors [Ln(Piso)X] (Ln = Tb, Dy; X = Cl, I) or [Ln(Piso)I] (Ln = Gd, Y) with 3 eq. KC in benzene, or by the reaction of the homoleptic Ln(ii) complexes [Ln(Piso)] (Ln = Tb, Dy) with 2 eq. KC in benzene.
