Yes, We Can! Ensuring That our Graduating Resident's Procedural Skills Meet the Needs of Their Patients.

Objectives: There is a burgeoning discrepancy between the procedural competency of graduating diagnostic radiology residents and the needs of our patient population. The causes of this mismatch and opportunities for improvement are explored by the APDR Procedural Competency of Graduating DR Residents Task Force.

Materials And Methods: The APDR convened a task force consisting of diverse broad stakeholder viewpoints, drawing from organized radiology, academic and private practices.

Beyond autonomy: unpacking self-regulated and self-directed learning through the lens of learner agency- a scoping review.

Background: Learner agency involves students actively engaging in their learning process and shaping their educational experiences through autonomy, self-regulation, and decision-making. In professional education, particularly within health professions, learner agency is critical for fostering adaptability and lifelong learning. This scoping review explores how learner agency, alongside concepts such as self-regulated learning and self-directed learning, is addressed in undergraduate dental education, aiming to understand its implications and strategies for enhancing student agency in this context.

Deep regression analysis for enhanced thermal control in photovoltaic energy systems.

Efficient cooling systems are critical for maximizing the electrical efficiency of Photovoltaic (PV) solar panels. However, conventional temperature probes often fail to capture the spatial variability in thermal patterns across panels, impeding accurate assessment of cooling system performance. Existing methods for quantifying cooling efficiency lack precision, hindering the optimization of PV system maintenance and renewable energy output.

Isolation, characterization, quantification and antioxidant activity of compounds from .

In the present study, 85% aqueous ethanol extract of stem bark (MESB) showed the isolation of six bioactive compounds including myricanone (), myricanol-5-O-β-D-glucopyranoside (), myricetin (), myricolol (), β-sitosterol (), and β-sitosterol-D-glucoside (). The HPLC approach revealed as a key bioactive compound, with a 69% abundance in the crude ethanol (CE) extract. Furthermore, the CE was assessed for antioxidant activity using DPPH and hydroxyl radical tests, while purified compounds were examined for total antioxidant capacity using cyclic voltammetry and verified using the density functional theory (DFT) method.

Progressive resisted exercise program combined with aerobic exercise on osteoporotic systemic lupus erythematous patients: a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Purpose: To investigate the effect of progressive resisted exercise (PRE) and aerobic exercise (AE) on bone mineral density (BMD), muscular strength, exercise capacity, and health related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with osteoporotic systemic lupus erythematous (SLE).

Methods: This study was a single blinded randomized controlled trail. Eighty SLE participants, 30-50 years old, were randomly allocated into four equal groups.
