Growing demand for genetic counselling and testing has created a need for innovative service delivery models to provide quality care in an efficient manner. The goal of this study was to develop and evaluate a patient-facing webinar providing pre-test genetic counselling to individuals with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. A patient-facing webinar was developed and implemented between April 2019 and January 2021.

- The study aimed to analyze changes in treatment approaches for clinical stage I seminoma (CSIS) between 2000 and 2008, focusing on the use of surveillance and adjuvant chemotherapy compared to adjuvant radiotherapy (ART).
- The analysis revealed that while ART was initially the dominant treatment, there was a significant shift towards increased use of surveillance and adjuvant chemotherapy over the years, especially after 2004, across both academic and community practices.
- The researchers predict that maintaining current practices could lead to a notable number of secondary malignancies linked to ART, with fewer cases expected from increased surveillance strategies.

- The study aimed to assess a new immunofluorescence staining technique to analyze the distribution of multiple macromolecules in preserved human temporal bone tissues.
- Researchers evaluated chondroitin sulfate and keratan sulfate proteoglycans by applying the dual immunofluorescence method to archival samples, confirming its effectiveness through control tissues.
- The findings revealed distinct staining patterns in normal tissues and identified changes in proteoglycan distribution associated with conditions like presbycusis and otosclerosis, highlighting the method's potential for future research.
