Plants are a valuable source of specialized metabolites that provide a plethora of therapeutic applications. They are natural defenses that plants use to adapt and respond to their changing environment. Decoding their biosynthetic pathways and understanding how specialized plant metabolites (SPMs) respond to biotic or abiotic stress will provide vital knowledge for plant biology research and its application for the future sustainable production of many SPMs of interest.

Article Synopsis
- Air medical transport is crucial for emergency care, especially in remote regions like eastern Iran, where timely transfers of critically ill patients are essential.
- A retrospective study analyzed 252 helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) missions from 2021 to 2024, revealing a mean activation time of 9.14 minutes—far exceeding the national benchmark of 3 minutes—and an average prehospital transport time of 49.73 minutes.
- While HEMS activation time was slower than desired, it provided faster patient transport compared to ground ambulances, highlighting its efficiency in emergencies.
Stimulating Medical Student Professional Identity Formation Through Mentored Longitudinal Partnerships With Patient Teachers.

Article Synopsis
- Longitudinal patient relationships can enhance medical students' professional identity formation and understanding of illness, but implementing a traditional longitudinal integrated clerkship (LIC) may not always be possible.
- The Patient Student Partnership (PSP) program at the University of Virginia School of Medicine pairs students with chronic illness patients over four years, blending experiential learning with the existing block curriculum.
- Student feedback indicates that the PSP program fosters connections between classroom theory and clinical practice, improves communication skills, and enhances self-reflection on their future roles, with 80.6% agreeing it allowed them to observe the impact of chronic illness on patients' lives.
- Future research is needed to assess the program’s effectiveness in promoting professional identity formation similar to LICs and to improve student
Research Paradigm of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) With Item Response Theory: Clarification, Classification, and Challenge.

Background: The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is the worldwide terminology system for measuring health and disability at both individual and population levels. However, the underlying challenges remain in achieving widespread adoption and implementation of ICF within healthcare contexts, including the unequal interval scale of the ICF Likert-type qualifier system ranging from 0 to 4, a lack of consensus on conceptualization and grading criteria of ICF items, and an excessive number of ICF items associated with each disease. The utilization of item response theory (IRT) for ICF studies demonstrated potential benefits in addressing these issues.

Background: Strategies to counteract the impending and in some places already existing shortage of general practitioners (GPs) are being discussed in Germany. One approach could be to establish interprofessional teams in GP practices by integrating physician assistants (PAs).
Question: Can GPs imagine employing a PA in their practice and if so, under what conditions?
Methods: In March/April 2023, about 5,000 GPs in North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW), who work in a region with a care level of < 100 %, and about 1,000 GPs from Saxony-Anhalt were asked to take part in an online-based survey.
