Redefining professionalism to improve health equity in competency based medical education (CBME): A qualitative study.

Purpose: There is a pressing need to address all forms of anti-oppression in medicine, given systemic harm and inequities in care and outcomes for patients and health care professionals from equity-deserving groups. Revising definitions of professionalism used in competency-based education can incorporate new professional competencies for physicians to identify and eliminate the root causes of these inequities. This study redefined the CanMEDS definition to centre perspectives of equity-deserving groups.

The Effect of Starting Blood Glucose Levels on Serum Electrolyte Concentrations during and after Exercise in Type 1 Diabetes.

Fear of hypoglycemia is a major exercise barrier for people with type 1 diabetes (PWT1D). Consequently, although guidelines recommend starting exercise with blood glucose (BG) concentration at 7-10 mmol/L, PWT1D often start higher, potentially affecting hydration and serum electrolyte concentrations. To test this, we examined serum and urine electrolyte concentrations during aerobic exercise (cycling 45 min at 60%VOpeak) in 12 PWT1D (10F/2M, mean ± SEM: age 29 ± 2.
