Medical Students' Preferences on Practicing Intravenous Insertion on Each Other and Via Simulation.

Medical students have traditionally practiced painful procedures such as intravenous (IV) line insertion on each other. Recently, there has been more emphasis on learning through simulation. Our study investigated students' attitudes regarding IV line insertion training, focusing on their anxiety, expectation to learn empathy, learning preference, and litigiousness.

Is step width decoupled from pelvic motion in human evolution?

Humans are the only primate that walk bipedally with adducted hips, valgus knees, and swing-side pelvic drop. These characteristic frontal-plane aspects of bipedalism likely play a role in balance and energy minimization during walking. Understanding when and why these aspects of bipedalism evolved also requires an understanding of how each of these features are interrelated during walking.
