Incorporating Augmented Reality Patients Into Online Trauma Training to Support Mental Model Development: An Experimental Study.

Introduction: Medical students find translating lessons from traditional lectures to caring for trauma patients challenging. We assess whether adding video-based virtual flashcards and videos of augmented reality-based trauma patients in an online learning environment improves performance.

Methods: We performed a between-subject experimental study.

Genetic polymorphism association of (, and ) with acute lymphocytic leukemia in Saudi Arabia.

Human leukocyte antigen-G () is linked to the development of human malignancies via immune escape mechanisms. The chief variations for were found in three prime untranslated regions (3'UTR). The current study aims to evaluate the distribution of (), , and polymorphisms with risk of acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in Saudi Arabia.

The association of health anxiety with quality of life among medical students in Egypt: Myth or Menace?

Background: Health anxiety (HA) is a prevalent concern among medical students, potentially impacting their academic performance and Quality of Life (QoL). This study aims to assess the prevalence of HA and its predictors among medical students in Egypt and its correlation with the Quality of Life.

Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted during the 2022-2023 academic year across ten Egyptian medical schools.

Structurally informed models of directed brain connectivity.

Understanding how one brain region exerts influence over another in vivo is profoundly constrained by models used to infer or predict directed connectivity. Although such neural interactions rely on the anatomy of the brain, it remains unclear whether, at the macroscale, structural (or anatomical) connectivity provides useful constraints on models of directed connectivity. Here, we review the current state of research on this question, highlighting a key distinction between inference-based effective connectivity and prediction-based directed functional connectivity.

Decontamination of textile effluents the adsorption process on various raw clay minerals enhanced by ozonation: a modeling approach and optimization.

This study seeks to characterize three different clays and compare their capability to decontaminate a textile effluent using the adsorption process and to explore the synergistic effects of ozonation on the treatment. Response surface methodology, based on central composite design, was used to investigate the impact of three key parameters, namely, solution pH, clay dosage, and contact time, on the adsorption process. The three clays were sourced from distinct regions across Tunisia: Rommana, Tabarka, and Medenine.
