In this viewpoint, we share our perspectives, as medical students at Imperial College London, on our experiences during our Infectious Diseases placement at Northwick Park Hospital, touching upon other students' experiences at other sites as well. We highlight some of the main drivers of and barriers to medical students seeing patients with COVID-19.

Objectives: To compare the effects of powered and manual stretchers on participants' perceived comfort and measured acceleration during lifting and loading operations.
Methods: This non-randomized, laboratory-based crossover study involved forty-one participants (thirty-one firefighters and ten third-year paramedic students) who served as simulated patients experiencing lifting, lowering, loading, and unloading maneuvers using manual and powered stretchers. Four stretcher types were evaluated: one powered stretcher (Power-PRO™ XT) and three manual stretchers (Matsunaga GT, Exchange 4070, Scad Mate), with each group using the manual stretcher they routinely operated.

Columbia University Irving Medical Center, New York, NY, USA.
Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) health literacy is low in high-risk populations and is likely a determinant of timely care seeking behavior. Our group aimed to develop a novel brief questionnaire for use in community outreach and related studies of AD awareness.
Methods: We developed an initial 15-item AD knowledge questionnaire "ASK-AD (Assess Symptoms and Knowledge of AD)" following pilot study and cognitive interviews with subject matter experts along with elementary school children.

Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, Manhasset, NY, USA.
Background: While A1 astrocytes are reported in Alzheimer's disease (AD), the underlying molecular mechanisms are complex and remain elusive. Proinflammatory extracellular cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (eCIRP) is released by microglia in response to AD-associated neuronal amyloid-β. eCIRP activates the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1).

Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Validation Training Institute, Jerusalem, Israel; University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom.
Background: Despite the prevalence of patients living with dementia, physicians and medical students, in particular, have received little or no dementia-specific training to help them communicate effectively with this population. Connecting and communicating with persons living through cognitive change requires specific skills: developing empathy and identifying coping mechanisms, symbols, and the stages of resolutions for those living with cognitive decline. These skills were taught in the beta test, Validation for Physicians and Medical Provider training, based upon the evidence-based Validation method by Naomi Feil.
