The increasing burden of documentation experienced by doctors threatens the efficiency in EDs and increases the likelihood of documentation errors. Medical scribes afford the opportunity to allay this burden by removing a large component of the doctors' documentation task. Scribes have been embedded successfully in US EDs, and the effects have been mostly advantageous. The present paper provides a brief overview of the function of scribes and their potential contribution to Australian EDs.

Objective: To investigate the impact of inspiratory muscle training on lung function and swallowing function in patients with dysphagia-induced aspiration following ischemic stroke and to evaluate the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training on aspiration symptoms.

Methods: Fifty-eight inpatients with dysphagia-induced aspiration following ischemic stroke were selected and randomly divided into a control group (n = 29, conventional swallowing therapy) and a treatment group (n = 29, conventional swallowing therapy plus inspiratory muscle training). Both groups received conventional swallowing function training, including oral sensory training, oral motor training, airway safety protection training, and neuromuscular electrical stimulation therapy for 10-20 min per session, twice daily for 2 weeks.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study's objective was to gather feedback on a real-time exercise-feedback system called homeSETT, which helps patients perform exercises targeting functional deficits while providing immediate feedback.
  • * Data was collected from 9 participants (patients, physiotherapists, physicians) using a movement analysis system and qualitative interviews to assess the usability of feedback visualizations and gather suggestions for improvement.

Structured RNA lies at the heart of many central biological processes, from gene expression to catalysis. RNA structure prediction is not yet possible due to a lack of high-quality reference data associated with organismal phenotypes that could inform RNA function. We present GARNET (Gtdb Acquired RNa with Environmental Temperatures), a new database for RNA structural and functional analysis anchored to the Genome Taxonomy Database (GTDB).
