Exploring cognitive impairments and the efficacy of phosphatidylcholine and computer-assisted cognitive training in post-acute COVID-19 and post-acute COVID-19 Vaccination Syndrome.

Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has led to millions of confirmed cases worldwide, resulting in numerous deaths and hospitalizations. Long-term symptoms after infection or vaccination, known as Post-acute COVID-19 Syndrome (PACS) or Post-acute COVID-19 Vaccination Syndrome (PACVS), present a challenge for the healthcare system. Among the various neurological symptoms, cognitive impairments are frequently observed in PACS/PACVS patients.

How I do it: Endoscope-assisted in situ arterial reconstruction of the lower limb.

Arterial reconstruction with the great saphenous vein is a frequently performed vascular surgery technique for revascularization of chronic limb threatening ischemia. Surgeon variations of the procedure are common and aim to balance patency, limb salvage, complications, hospital resources, and technical feasibility. We describe a minimally invasive revascularization option using endoscope assistance for in situ great saphenous vein-arterial bypass to treat infrainguinal occlusive disease.

Isodose mapping of terrestrial gamma radiation in Sarawak-Borneo: Insights from surface-weathered soil analysis.

Presentation of baseline data on terrestrial gamma radiation (TGR) levels is crucial for assessing the annual effective dose received by the public due to natural radiation exposure. Cumulative doses from various sources can become significant, warranting a spatial understanding of TGR distribution. Few countries have comprehensively mapped TGR on a national scale, often facing challenges due to remote or inaccessible regions.

Clinical profile and treatment outcomes of Boerhaave's syndrome: A 13-year experience from an upper gastrointestinal surgical unit.

Objectives: IBoerhaave's syndrome (BS) is a rare, but potentially fatal condition, characterized by barogenic esophageal rupture and carries a high mortality. We aimed to study our institutional experience of managing patients with BS.

Material And Methods: A retrospective review of patients with BS presenting to a tertiary care centre from 2005 to 2018 was carried out in this study.

Outcomes of inquiry-based learning in health professions education: a scoping review.

Background: Open inquiry-based learning (IBL) that aims to foster higher-level thinking, is defined by students formulating their own questions and learning through exploration. The present study aimed to summarize the breadth of metrics used to evaluate health professions trainees in open IBL curricula.

Methods: We conducted a scoping review to identify publications detailing trainee outcomes in open IBL initiatives in health professions education.
