Trauma-Informed Undergraduate Medical Education: A Pathway to Flourishing with Adversity by Enhancing Psychological Safety.

We describe the Life Experiences Curriculum (LEC), which attempts to integrate medical student well-being with trauma-informed medical education. The long-term goal of LEC is to help medical students flourish with adversity and trauma, where flourishing refers to having a sense of purpose that arises from awareness of one's strengths and limitations, shaped by life experiences. The short-term goal of LEC is to develop students' relational capacities, such as acceptance and awareness of self and others, while building and maintaining students' psychological safety.

Opioid Knowledge and Prescribing Habits at a Large Tertiary Care Academic Center.

Background: Opioids are commonly prescribed medications for pain management with high risks associated with chronic use. The inherent risk associated with opioids is worsened by variable prescribing practices used by prescribers. In the midst of the "opioid epidemic," perceptions of opioid prescription among healthcare practitioners have not been widely investigated.

Palladium-catalyzed regio- and enantioselective allylic alkylation of bis allylic carbonates derived from Morita-Baylis-Hillman adducts.

Morita-Baylis-Hillman diene adducts are used as substrates in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation reaction with oxygen and carbon nucleophiles in good regio- and enantioselectivity.

Palladium asymmetric allylic alkylation of prochiral nucleophiles: horsfiline.

[reaction; see text] The asymmetric synthesis of the oxindole alkaloid horsfiline is described. A palladium-catalyzed asymmetric allylic alkylation (AAA) is used to set the spiro(pyrrolidine-oxindole) stereogenic center.

Neonatal hearing loss in the indigent.

Objective: To compare the risk factor profile for neonatal hearing loss (HL), and the follow-up rate of those identified with HL in an indigent population with those in an insured population.

Study Design: Retrospective review.

Methods: We studied 4526 neonates from the high-risk nursery or neonatal intensive care unit from two adjacent hospitals in Houston, Texas.
