Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the short-term outcomes of single-port thoracoscopic rib fracture reduction and internal fixation for the treatment of multiple rib fractures.
Methods: This study included 149 patients with multiple rib fractures admitted to the Second People's Hospital Affiliated with Fujian University of Chinese Medicine between June 2021 and April 2024. The patients were divided into two groups based on the surgical method.

Background It is recognised that large language models (LLMs) may aid medical education by supporting the understanding of explanations behind answers to multiple choice questions. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of LLM chatbots ChatGPT and Bard in answering an Intermediate Life Support pre-course multiple choice question (MCQs) test developed by the Resuscitation Council UK focused on managing deteriorating patients and identifying causes and treating cardiac arrest. We assessed the accuracy of responses and quality of explanations to evaluate the utility of the chatbots.

Zebrafish () have become indispensable models for advancing our understanding of multiple metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, and metabolic syndrome. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of zebrafish as a powerful tool for dissecting the genetic and molecular mechanisms of these diseases, focusing on key genes, like , , , and . Zebrafish offer distinct advantages, including genetic tractability, optical transparency in early development, and the conservation of key metabolic pathways with humans.

Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of simulation as a means to teach Psychological First Aid in Operations (PFA-O). We propose to use a model built on research in didactics to assess the factors which may or may not encourage trainers to adopt and embrace this teaching technique.
Material And Method: We submitted a questionnaire to all PFA-O trainers working in France, comprising 15 criteria divided into three dimensions: usability, usefulness and acceptability.

Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are commonly used to address human infertility and to boost livestock production. During ART, procedures such as in vitro fertilization, artificial insemination, and intracytoplasmic sperm injection introduce gametes and embryos to unnatural and potentially stressful conditions that can influence offspring health, often via epigenetic effects. In this perspective we summarize these key risks of ART for embryonic and longer-term offspring fitness, emphasizing the need for experimental research on animal models to determine causal links between ART and offspring fitness across multiple generations.
