Which psychological needs profile exhibits higher engagement and favorable attitudes toward interprofessional education? A cluster analysis among health and social care Hong Kong students.

Background: This study aimed to investigate which basic psychological needs profile, based on different levels of autonomy, competence, and relatedness, could exhibit higher student engagement and favorable attitudes toward interprofessional education (IPE).

Methods: A total of 341 undergraduate and postgraduate health and social care students enrolled in an IPE simulation participated in this study. Data were analyzed using a person-centered approach using a two-step cluster analysis, multiple analysis of variance, and bootstrapped independent t-tests.

Pathological Q waves at presentation of anterior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction predict heart failure: a Southeast Asian perspective.

Background: Pathological Q waves at presentation in ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) have been associated with poorer clinical outcomes including heart failure. This observational study highlights the prognostic value of pathological Q waves at presentation in the Southeast Asian population.

Methods: Multiethnic Asian patients presenting with STEMI and treated with primary coronary intervention were recruited from 2015 to 2019.

Acute Parastomal Hernia Presentations: A 10-Year Review of Management and Outcomes.

Introduction: The acute presentation of parastomal hernia (PSH) can range from exacerbation of pain to life-threatening incarceration. Managing the acute PSH is challenging, particularly in the presence of concomitant midline incisional hernia. Most literature focuses on the outcomes of elective PSH repair.

Ion channel modulator DPI-201-106 significantly enhances antitumor activity of DNA damage response inhibitors in glioblastoma.

Background: Glioblastoma, a lethal high-grade glioma, has not seen improvements in clinical outcomes in nearly 30 years. Ion channels are increasingly associated with tumorigenesis, and there are hundreds of brain-penetrant drugs that inhibit ion channels, representing an untapped therapeutic resource. The aim of this exploratory drug study was to screen an ion channel drug library against patient-derived glioblastoma cells to identify new treatments for brain cancer.
