Carbon dot-based fluorescent sensors for pharmaceutical detection: Current innovations, challenges, and future prospects.

Environmental contamination by pharmaceuticals has become a matter of concern as they are released in sewage systems at trace levels, thus impacting biological systems. Increasing concerns about the low-level occurrence of pharmaceuticals in the environment demands sensitive and selective monitoring. Owing to their high sensitivity and specificity carbon dots (CDs) have emerged as suitable fluorescent sensors.

Evaluating the Impact of Gender and Race on Otolaryngology Resident Experiences Across the United States.

Objective: Otolaryngology residents often encounter work-related stress and challenges during training. Sociodemographic factors influence experiences during residency; however, the impact of race and gender on otolaryngology trainee well-being during residency remains understudied.

Evaluating the Impact of Gender, Race, and Training Year on Internal Medicine Residents' Experiences Across the United States.

Introduction: Prior studies have highlighted experiences of bias within resident training based on trainees' gender and race and high rates of burnout. However, few studies have addressed the intersection between bias and wellness for residents in internal medicine (IM) programs. This study explores how race, gender, and training year affect IM residents' bias experiences and well-being.
