Increasing use of co-design concepts and buzzwords create risk of generating 'co-design branded' healthcare research and healthcare system design involving insincere, contrived, coercive engagement with First Nations Peoples.

Therefore, the aim of this systematic review was to evaluate studies investigating health professional students' self-perceived cultural capability following participation in a clinical placement with First Nations Peoples.
Methods: Electronic database searchers were conducted in MEDLINE, EMBASE, AMED, PsychINFO, Pubmed, CINAHL and Informit.
Article Synopsis
- CPA meningiomas are challenging to treat due to their location near vital nerves and blood vessels, leading to potential postoperative complications and unpredictable recovery outcomes.
- A study of 95 patients at Mass General Brigham found that common symptoms included hearing loss, ataxia, and headaches, with gross total resection achieved in 62.1% of cases, which was more likely with smaller tumors and when the internal auditory canal was drilled.
- Post-surgery, most patients experienced stable or improved hearing, but 25.3% showed tumor progression or recurrence, with lower odds of progression linked to complete resection grades and older age.
From margins to mainstream: Incorporating internationally educated health professionals' skills into primary care.

This case study explores the collaborative integration of Internationally Educated Healthcare Professionals (IEHPs) into comprehensive primary care through partnerships between non-profit organizations and health systems actors. It addresses the critical need for such collaboration amidst challenges of limited access to primary care and underutilization of IEHPs' skills in the Canadian healthcare workforce. Through the examination of ACCES Employment's integration into the Team Primary Care initiative, this article demonstrates the importance of coordinated efforts in overcoming longstanding barriers faced by IEHPs.

Methods: Foot Posture Index-6 (FPI-6) as a measure of foot type, barefoot plantar pressure (peak pressures and pressure-time integrals), presence of forefoot deformities, peripheral neuropathy, ankle and first metatarsophalangeal joint (MTPJ) dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM), and demographic variables were measured. Standard multiple regression models were used to investigate the independent contribution of FPI-6 on plantar pressure variables at the hallux, forefoot, and rearfoot.
