Article Synopsis
- - Meningioma, a type of brain tumor accounting for 39% of CNS tumors, primarily relies on surgical and clinical treatments despite advancements in research identifying potential biomarkers and pathways related to its development.
- - The study performed a meta-analysis of proteomic and transcriptomic data from 48 tissue samples, revealing around 1832 common genes/proteins relevant to high-grade meningioma, focusing on the roles of extracellular matrix organization (EMO) and integrin binding in tumor growth processes like apoptosis and angiogenesis.
- - Validation using an independent cohort confirmed these findings, and experiments with an IOMM-Lee cell line showed that inhibiting integrin-linked kinase (ILK) led to reduced tumor cell proliferation and increased
The Importance of Quality Assurance and Quality Improvement in Low- and Middle-Income Settings.

Purpose Of Review: This review will discuss the importance of quality improvement in low- and middle-income settings as well as several potential barriers to these measures.
Recent Findings: There is substantial potential for growth in the field of quality improvement in low-resource settings. The extent of quality improvement (QI) research in low-resource settings is limited but expanding.
Given the near-universal implementation of electronic medical records (EMRs) in emergency departments (EDs), emergency medicine (EM) residents spend significant time interfacing with EMRs without any established national curriculum to learn best practices. While EMRs have the potential to increase physician efficiency and improve the quality of documentation, they have also been cited as a factor in physician burnout. Understanding the target audience of the EMR, knowing what and when to chart, and practicing time-saving strategies can streamline the process of charting.
