Method: A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Cochrane Central, and Google Scholar was conducted from inception to November 2024.
Objective: This study was conducted to investigate the social media practices and attitudes towards e-professionalism among undergraduate medical students in a medical college of Pakistan.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 220 undergraduate medical students from 2 to final-year MBBS, at CMH Lahore Medical College from March to August 2022. After ethical approval, a printed questionnaire was distributed among students, selected by stratified random sampling technique.

Article Synopsis
- The paper reviews humane anesthetic and euthanasia methods for laboratory fish, focusing on the fathead minnow, by analyzing 333 scientific studies from 2004 to 2021.
- Findings indicate that many studies lack proper descriptions of these methods, especially for younger fish, although there has been a 20% increase in adequately described euthanasia methods over the past two decades.
- Recommendations include using a two-step euthanasia process and improving documentation in research papers to enhance consistency and animal welfare practices, while highlighting the need for further research on various euthanasia techniques for different life stages.
