Scholarly activity is a key component of most residency programmes. To establish fundamental research skills and fill gaps within training curricula, we developed an online, asynchronous set of modules called to introduce trainees to various topics that are germane to the conduct of research and evaluated its effectiveness in resident research education. was utilised by residents at One Brooklyn Health in Brooklyn, NY.

Rationale: Race-based estimates of pulmonary function in children could influence the evaluation of asthma in children from racial and ethnic minoritized backgrounds.
Objectives: To determine if race-neutral (GLI-Global) versus race-specific (GLI-Race-Specific) reference equations differentially impact spirometry evaluation of childhood asthma.
Methods: The analysis included 8,719 children aged 5 to <12 years from 27 cohorts across the United States grouped by parent-reported race and ethnicity.
Background: The current diagnostic strategy for hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection involves a two-step approach: antibody HCV screening followed by confirmatory nucleic acid testing. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the Abbott ARCHITECT HCV Ag assay in serum/plasma samples as a potential one-step alternative for diagnosing active HCV infection in people living with hepatitis B virus (PLWHB) through a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted following PRISMA-DTA guidelines.
Article Synopsis
- Pyrochlore iridates are notable for studying complex phenomena due to their strong spin-orbit coupling, electronic interactions, and geometrically frustrated lattice structures.
- In thin films of (111) YIrO with thicknesses ≤30 nm, researchers found a unique quantum disordered state at temperatures as low as 5 K, which was characterized by dispersionless magnetic excitations.
- Below approximately 125 K, an anomalous Hall effect suggests the existence of chiral spin configurations, attributed to magnetic frustration in the lower-dimensional structure that leads to spin-liquid behavior without long-range order.
