Objective: To point out limits and possibilities involved in the teaching and learning process of undergraduate students from Health of a Federal Public Higher Education Institution on breastfeeding.
Method: Instantaneous photography study carried out in undergraduate courses in the area of Health with professors and students involved in the teaching and learning process on breastfeeding. For data collection, the Focal Group technique was used with the students and the semi-structured interview with the professors. The speeches were submitted to the thematic content analysis of Bardin.
Results: It was identified the thematic category: Limits and possibilities for the teaching and learning process on breastfeeding, from two sub-categories: Structural limitations of the courses; and Advances and obstacles in the relationship between theory and practice.
Final Considerations: Limits indicated as workload deficit and professor-centered teaching made progress in learning about breastfeeding difficult, and interdisciplinarity was a step forward in this process.

Objective: To determine if surgical skills instructors' experience and qualifications influence students' learning of small animal ovariohysterectomy on a model (mOVH).
Sample Population: Second-year veterinary students (n = 105).
Methods: Students were randomized to three groups, taught by: (1) residency-trained surgeons with over 3 years' experience teaching mOVH, (2) general practitioners with over 3 years' experience teaching mOVH (GP >3), and (3) general practitioners with under 3 years' experience (GP <3).

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a group of developmental disorders characterized by poor social skills, low motivation in activities, and a lack of interaction with others. Traditional intervention approaches typically require support under the direct supervision of well-trained professionals. However, teaching and training programs for children with ASD can also be enhanced by assistive technologies, artificial intelligence, and robotics.

Background: The increasing prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in lower and middle - income countries call for preventive public health interventions. Studies from Africa including those from Ghana, consistently reveal high T2DM-related mortality rates. While previous research in the Ho municipality has primarily examined risk factors, comorbidity, and quality of life of T2DM patients, this study specifically investigated mortality predictors among these patients.

Scapular morphological attributes show promise as prognostic indicators of retear following rotator cuff repair. Current evaluation techniques using single-slice magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI) are, however, prone to error, while more accurate computed tomography (CT)-based three-dimensional techniques, are limited by cost and radiation exposure. In this study we propose deep learning-based methods that enable automatic scapular morphological analysis from diagnostic MRI despite the anisotropic resolution and reduced field of view, compared to CT.
