Perceived faculty development needs and motivations of Chinese general practice trainers: a narrative review of the literature.

Background: Like other countries developing standardized general practice training, China faces the challenge of training vast numbers of new general practice faculty. However, little is known about these clinician-teachers' motivations and perceived needs for faculty development. This review intended to explore available published data on Chinese general practice faculty development needs and motivation for ongoing professional development.

An Array of Glucose Nanozymes That Can Selectively Detect Glucose in Whole Blood.

Achieving sensors that can sensitively and selectively quantify levels of analytes in complex biofluids such as blood remains a significant challenge. To address this, we synthesized an array of isolated carbon nanochannels on a flat gold electrode that function as molecular sieves to prevent protein fouling and eliminate the need for antifouling layers. Utilizing a two-step pulsed technique, a reductive pulse expels negative interferences and fouling molecules followed by an oxidative pulse that oxidizes glucose at the bottom of the channel and on the gold surface.

Stochastic Electrochemical Measurement of a Biofouling Layer on Gold.

Adsorption of a biofouling layer on the surface of biosensors decreases the electrochemical activity and hence shortens the service life of biosensors, particularly implantable and wearable biosensors. Real-time quantification of the loss of activity is important for assessment of performance while presenting an opportunity to compensate for the loss of activity and recalibrate the sensor to extend the service life. Here, we introduce an electrochemical noise measurement technique as a tool for the quantification of the formation of a biofouling layer on the surface of gold.

Hypoglycemia Associated With PEG-asparaginase and 6-MP Therapy During Treatment of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Pediatric Patients: A Case Series.

Background: Asparaginases are a mainstay treatment for pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Recent reports identified hypoglycemia associated with asparaginases. Other reports describe hypoglycemia associated with 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP), another fundamental ALL therapy.

Exploring in-person self-led debriefings for groups of learners in simulation-based education: an integrative review.

Background: Facilitator-led debriefings are well-established for debriefing groups of learners in immersive simulation-based education. However, there has been emerging interest in self-led debriefings whereby individuals or groups of learners conduct a debriefing themselves, without the presence of a facilitator. How and why self-led debriefings influence debriefing outcomes remains undetermined.
