Background: Existing studies on breast cancer survivors (BCS) have primarily focused on individual aspects of either diet or exercise preferences and barriers. Our study aims to examine BCS' perceptions toward diet and exercise combined. Given the transformative impact of COVID-19, there is a crucial need for insights in the post-pandemic era to address the distinct challenges faced by BCS in maintaining their health and well-being.

Background: Acute aluminum phosphide (ALP) poisoning presents a significant global medical challenge, particularly in regions where it is commonly used as a pesticide. Despite medical advancements, mortality rates from ALP poisoning remain high. Glucose-insulin-potassium (GIK) infusion therapy has emerged as a potential treatment for ALP poisoning due to its ability to counteract its toxic effects on metabolism and heart function.

Objectives: Lateral sagittal infraclavicular approach is frequently used because it has less risk of complications and provides rapid and adequate regional anesthesia. Due to the fact that the brachial plexus is deeper in the infraclavicular region and the approach angle is sharper, it can be technically challenging. In this study, we aimed to compare the costoclavicular approach, which is a newly defined approach, with the lateral sagittal infraclavicular brachial plexus block.

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of integrating GASMAN anesthesia simulation software with case-based learning (IGC) compared to traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) in teaching inhalation anesthesia to undergraduate anesthesiology students.
Methods: Fourth-year students from two academic years (2022, = 110; 2023, = 131) enrolled in a five-year anesthesiology program were assigned to either traditional lecture-based learning (LBL) or IGC groups. The LBL group received traditional lectures using PowerPoint slides, while the IGC group engaged with GASMAN anesthesia simulation software (a tool designed for anesthesia simulation and gas monitoring) combined with case-based learning.

Introduction Spinal anesthesia, a commonly used technique for lower abdominal, pelvic, and lower extremity surgeries, involves injecting a local anesthetic into the subarachnoid space to temporarily block sensory, motor, and sympathetic nerves. Despite its high success rate, the failure of spinal anesthesia, which can lead to adverse patient outcomes, remains a concern. The failure rate varies widely, from 1% to 17%, influenced by factors such as technical challenges, patient anatomy, and practitioner experience.
