Internal medicine trainees learn a variety of clinical skills from resident clinical teachers in the inpatient setting. While diagnostic reasoning (DR) is increasingly emphasized as a core competency, trainees may not feel entirely comfortable teaching it. In this perspective article, we provide a framework for teaching DR during inpatient rounds, which includes focusing on the one-liner, structuring a reasoning-focused A&P, and performing a day of discharge reflection.

Background: Recruitment challenges in people with and without Down syndrome (DS) can delay research progress and risk sample bias. This study identified and quantified differences in research attitudes across populations of research enrollment decision-makers for individuals with and without DS.

Method: We compared scores on the Research Attitudes Questionnaire (RAQ) of individuals enrolled in two recruitment registries: the UCI Consent to Contact [C2C (N = 4818)] and DS-Connect (N = 976).

Background: People with dementia of all ages have a human right to equal access to quality health care. Despite evidence regarding its effectiveness, many people living with dementia lack access to evidence-based rehabilitation for promoting function and quality of life. The aims of this study were to 1) explore barriers to access to dementia rehabilitation; and 2) identify solutions which improve access to rehabilitation.

Background: The 2020 Lancet Commission on dementia prevention, intervention and care estimated that up to 40% of dementia cases could be prevented by tackling 12 potentially modifiable risk factors, namely less education, hearing loss, hypertension, physical inactivity, diabetes, social isolation, excessive alcohol consumption, air pollution, smoking, obesity, traumatic brain injury, depression. As more evidence on risk factors emerges, the Lancet standing commission on dementia met to update evidence on established dementia risk factors and to consider the evidence for other risk factors.

Method: We used a lifecourse approach to understand how to reduce risk or prevent dementia, as many risks operate at different timepoints in the lifespan.

Background: Behaviour support plans (BSPs) for people in residential aged care (RAC) were mandated nationally in 2019 for those who require, or may require, restrictive practices as part of their care. The legislation aims to reduce and potentially eliminate restrictive practices: long-standing problems of their inappropriate use were highlighted by the Royal Commission into Aged Care Quality and Safety (2018). Many people living with dementia will be impacted: up to 90% experience changed behaviours; 54% of people in RACs have dementia; and approximately 20% experience cognitive decline without a diagnosis.

Background: Care partners of hospitalized people living with dementia (PLWD) are particularly vulnerable in the hospital setting and may feel invisible during hospitalization of the PLWD they care for. Hospital initiatives for dementia friendly spaces emphasize providing a safe and supportive environment. However, literature is scarce regarding how the hospital's physical environment influences care partners' inclusion.
