Department of Medicine, Sinai Health and University of Toronto, Toronto, ON, Canada.
Purpose: The use of patient/family-centred written summaries to supplement verbal information may be useful to improve knowledge and reduce anxiety related to patient transfer from the intensive care unit (ICU) to a hospital ward. We aimed to identify essential elements to include in an ICU-specific patient-oriented discharge summary tool (PODS-ICU).
Methods: We conducted a mixed methods study.

Research has established a link between animal abuse and domestic violence (the Link), where the perpetrator uses the animal to control the human victim. Veterinarians are exposed to both vulnerable animals and humans, playing a crucial role in detecting and handling these cases. A study using an online survey was conducted in 2019, exploring the awareness of Swedish veterinarians regarding Non-accidental-injuries (NAI in animals, the Link between animal abuse and domestic violence and how to handle such cases.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare the Modular Dual Mobility (MDM) hip system and large femoral heads (LFHs) in revision total hip arthroplasties (THAs), focusing on risks like dislocation and metal-related complications.
- Researchers analyzed 299 revision THAs and found that the MDM group had a significantly lower rate of re-revision for dislocation (99% survival) compared to the LFH group (91% survival), with increased risks for LFH patients.
- Overall, THAs utilizing the MDM construct demonstrated a safer profile, particularly in reducing re-revisions related to dislocation and had no reported issues with metallosis or corrosion.
Almost 60% of early career faculty at Schools of Medicine (SOM) leave within ten years of hire. National data indicate that inadequately mentored faculty, particularly those from underrepresented minority backgrounds, are less likely to be retained. The role of mentoring in faculty retention is inadequately studied.

Emergency Medicine Unit and Emergency Medicine Postgraduate Training Program, Department of Internal Medicine, University of Pavia, IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo Foundation, Pavia, Italy.
Background: Despite the importance of Ultrasound-guided Regional Anaesthesia (UGRA) in Emergency Medicine (EM), there is significant variability in UGRA training among emergency physicians. We recently developed a one-day (8 h), simulation-based UGRA course, specifically tailored to help emergency physicians to integrate these skills into their clinical practice.
Methods: In this pre/post intervention study, emergency physicians attended a course consisting of a 4-hour teaching on background knowledge and a practical part structured as follows: a scanning session on a healthy individual; a needling station with an ex-vivo model (turkey thighs); a simulation-based learning experience on local anaesthetic toxicity (LAST); a session on the UGRA simulator BlockSim™.
