National Planetary Health learning objectives for Germany: A steppingstone for medical education to promote transformative change.

Physicians play an important role in adapting to and mitigating the adverse health effects of the unfolding climate and ecological crises. To fully harness this potential, future physicians need to acquire knowledge, values, skills, and leadership attributes to care for patients presenting with environmental change-related conditions and to initiate and propel transformative change in healthcare and other sectors of society including, but not limited to, the decarbonization of healthcare systems, the transition to renewable energies and the transformation of transport and food systems. Despite the potential of Planetary Health Education (PHE) to support medical students in becoming agents of change, best-practice examples of mainstreaming PHE in medical curricula remain scarce both in Germany and internationally.

Functional independence of persons with long-standing motor complete spinal cord injury in the Netherlands.

Since life expectancy of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) has improved, it is relevant to know whether this group is able to maintain functional abilities many years after onset of SCI. Objectives of this study were (1) to examine associations between time since injury (TSI) and functional independence in persons with long-standing SCI and (2) to explore associations between functional independence and level of injury, comorbidities, mental health, waist circumference and secondary health conditions (SHCs). TSI-stratified cross-sectional study.

Description of Urological Surveillance and Urologic Ultrasonography Outcomes in a Cohort of Individuals with Long-Term Spinal Cord Injury.

Individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) have an increased risk of developing urological complications. Therefore, long-term routine urological surveillance is recommended. To describe urological surveillance in individuals with long-term SCI and to determine factors associated with urologic ultrasonography (UU) outcome.
