The use of effect-based methods in water monitoring for identifying risks to aquatic organisms and human health is important for aiding regulatory decisions. In the past decades, the database on monitoring, especially in surface waters, has grown as this aquatic environment is openly exposed to various contamination sources. With regard to endocrine disruption, estrogenic and androgenic effects have been primarily investigated.

- Glyphosate usage has risen significantly in the U.S. since 1996, with research showing it can accumulate in the brain and invoke neuroinflammation, potentially influencing neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer's Disease (AD).
- The study involved giving varied doses of glyphosate to both Alzheimer's model mice and control mice, revealing that glyphosate and its metabolite remained detectable in brain tissue even after a recovery period.
- Results indicated that glyphosate exposure led to worsened cognitive function in AD mice, along with significant increases in brain plaque formation, tau protein abnormalities, and persistent inflammatory markers in both mouse groups.
Purpose: This cohort study aimed to investigate resident physician productivity in an academic emergency department (ED) and assess the impact of longitudinal coaching relationships known as clinical coaching teams and co-learners (medical students) on resident productivity.
Methods: Data from patient visits to two academic EDs in Ottawa, Canada between April 2022 and March 2023 were analyzed. The attending physician schedule, learner arrangements, and patient ED treatment team information were collected.
