A meta-analysis of extended ECG monitoring in detection of atrial fibrillation in patients with cryptogenic stroke.

Objective: The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate the various modalities available for extended ECG monitoring in the detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) following a cryptogenic stroke.

Methods: MEDLINE (Ovid), EMBASE (Ovid), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) were searched from January 2011 to November 2021. All randomised controlled trials and prospective cohort studies including the use of extended ECG monitoring >24 hours with a minimum duration of AF of 30 s in patients with either cryptogenic strokes or transient ischaemic attacks were included.

Virtual Reality in Medical Students' Education: Scoping Review.

Background: Virtual reality (VR) produces a virtual manifestation of the real world and has been shown to be useful as a digital education modality. As VR encompasses different modalities, tools, and applications, there is a need to explore how VR has been used in medical education.

Objective: The objective of this scoping review is to map existing research on the use of VR in undergraduate medical education and to identify areas of future research.
