Importance and fitness of family medicine milestone project from America to Taiwan.
BMC Med Educ
January 2025
Department of Family Medicine, National Cheng Kung University Hospital, College of Medicine, National Cheng Kung University, Tainan City, Taiwan.
Background: The six core competencies of ACGME - patient care (PC), medical knowledge (MK), systems-based practice (SBP), practice-based learning and improvement (PBLI), professionalism (PROF), and interpersonal and communication skills (ICS) - represent domains in which physicians must ultimately demonstrate competence. Although the ACGME's six core competencies have been applied in Taiwan with the milestone project, the application of the six core competences in the Family Medicine milestones for residency training have not yet been established.
Methods: We recruited 61 family medicine physicians from 25 hospitals from four major geographic areas for a Delphi round one survey and 72 physicians from 27 hospitals for a Delphi round two survey.

Purpose: Guidelines for management and treatment of appendicitis recommends the removal of a normal-looking appendix, but the recommendations are deemed as weak because they are based on low quality evidence. We aimed to provide an overview of the recommendations from the European societies or associations of surgeons regarding the treatment of acute appendicitis and especially recommendations for the macroscopically normal-looking appendix.
Methods: European surgical societies were contacted and sent an electronic questionnaire.

Department of Anaesthesiology, Pain Medicine and Critical Care, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Purpose: Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) has an incidence of 20-50% in patients admitted in Intensive Care Unit. As weaning failure is associated with increased morbidity, its prediction and understanding of its physiological basis holds extreme importance in guided management and prognostication of these patients. We conducted this prospective, observational, single - center study to evaluate the efficacy of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and lung ultrasonography (LUS) in predicting weaning failure in patients with AKI requiring mechanical ventilation.

However, clinical practice varies widely due to a lack of a reliable measure of congestion guiding diuretic use. Consequently, many HF patients are discharged prematurely without adequate decongestion, leading to increased readmissions and mortality.
