Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to determine if eating during labor affects outcomes by comparing food consumption to clear fluids in laboring patients.
- 129 healthy patients were randomized into two groups: one allowed to eat and the other restricted to clear fluids, with various maternal and neonatal outcomes measured.
- Results showed no significant differences in complications, labor progression, or outcomes between the two groups, leading to the conclusion that eating during labor is generally safe but should be approached cautiously based on individual patient risk factors.
Background: Stroke therapy is essential to reduce impairments and improve motor movements by engaging autogenous neuroplasticity. Traditionally, stroke rehabilitation occurs in inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation facilities. However, recent literature increasingly explores moving the recovery process into the home and integrating technology-based interventions.

- E-waste is rapidly becoming a significant environmental pollutant, resulting from advancements in technology leading to large amounts of discarded electronic devices.
- Improper disposal of these devices can release harmful metals into the environment, posing health risks to both humans and animals, particularly through oxidative stress effects.
- A study using the fish Danio rerio showed that exposure to e-waste leachate affected key biochemical markers, indicating toxicity, with worse effects seen at higher concentrations.
Objective: The aim of the study is to examine how involvement in the Whole Health System of care, clinically and personally (through employee-focused activities), would affect employee satisfaction, engagement, burnout, and turnover intent in the Veterans Health Administration.
Methods: Multivariate logistic regression analysis of cross-sectional survey from Veterans Health Administration employees was used to determine the influence of Whole Health System involvement and Employee Whole Health participation on job attitudes.
Results: Whole Health System involvement was associated higher job satisfaction, higher levels of engagement, lower burnout, and lower turnover intent.
Background: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) remains the leading cause of death in the United States. Case-based learning using electronic delivery of the modules can educate clinicians and improve translation of evidence-based guidelines into practice for high-risk ASCVD patients.
Objective: To develop and optimize module design, content, and usability of e-learning modules to teach clinicians evidence-based management in accordance with multi-society guidelines for high-risk ASCVD patients that will be implemented and evaluated in U.
