Objective: The aim: To analyze the challenges and approaches used in medical universities in different countries during the transfer of training from offline to online format during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: Electronic databases of Scielo, Scopus and PubMed were searched using keyword searches.
Conclusion: Conclusions: The use of a large number of online tools and ICTs to develop the clinical skills of medical students has become a real pedagogical breakthrough in medical education. Innovations and technological efficiency of educational tools will change medical education forever. But it is difficult to give an unambiguous assessment of the delayed effects of these changes, since not much is yet known about the long-term impact of COVID-19 on the medical education.

Alcohol-based fuels have shown high compatibility with spark-ignition (SI) engines, which require improvements in fuel efficiency and emissions reduction to meet modern environmental standards. While extensive research has been conducted on ethanol and other lower-order alcohols, there has been comparatively limited investigation into higher-order alcohols like butanol and pentanol as fuel alternatives. Previous studies on pentanol-gasoline blends in SI engines have demonstrated improved engine performance and reduced emissions.
