Barriers and Willingness to Undertake Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Reported by Medical Students Dependent on Their Place of Residence-A Single-Center Study.

Background: Bystander-administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) is crucial for the survival of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. However, only roughly 58% of bystanders would provide CPR, with wide variations across different regions. Identifying each factor affecting the barrier or readiness to perform resuscitation is a significant challenge for researchers.

Gaps in Education: A Cross-Sectional Survey Study of Knowledge of Advanced Lifesaving Interventions among Canadian Lifeguards.

The aim of this study was to assess lifeguards' knowledge retention of airway management, oxygen administration, and ventilation interventions following certification and employer-provided training. This cross-sectional study was conducted using an online survey administered between February and May 2024. A total of 1322 responses from Canadian lifeguards certified in airway management and oxygen administration were deemed eligible for analysis.

Inter-species interactions between two bacterial flower commensals and a floral pathogen reduce disease incidence and alter pathogen activity.

Unlabelled: Flowers are colonized by a diverse community of microorganisms that can alter plant health and interact with floral pathogens. is a flower-inhabiting bacterium and a pathogen that infects different plant species, including (apple). Previously, we showed that the co-inoculation of two bacterial strains, members of the genera and isolated from apple flowers, reduced disease incidence caused by this floral pathogen.

Capturing heart valve development with Gene Ontology.

The normal development of all heart valves requires highly coordinated signaling pathways and downstream mediators. While genomic variants can be responsible for congenital valve disease, environmental factors can also play a role. Later in life valve calcification is a leading cause of aortic valve stenosis, a progressive disease that may lead to heart failure.
