Expectation and Needs of Medical Students Towards the Implementation of Virtual Simulation in Learning Rational Use of Medicine.

Introduction: The irrational use of medicines remains prevalent globally despite education efforts, leading to decreased treatment quality and increased healthcare costs. With the rise of online learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual simulation offers a promising solution to enhance the teaching of rational medicine use among medical students. This study aimed to investigate medical students' perspectives and needs regarding the implementation of virtual simulation in learning the rational use of medicines.

Early Menarche as a Protective Factor Against Cardiovascular Events: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Background: Women are often neglected in cardiovascular health prevention. Age at menarche (AAM) has been linked to cardiovascular (CVD) disease in women and is potentially identified as one of the significant CVD risk factor.

The safety and efficacy of fibrin sealant for thyroidectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Fibrin sealants have recently been thoroughly studied in several surgical specialties; however, results are conflicting. We aimed to examine the safety and efficacy of fibrin sealant patients having thyroidectomies. A thorough, systematic literature search was carried out using the terms thyroidectomy and fibrin sealant using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Clinicaltrials.
