Mentors without Borders: Bridging global gaps in medical and radiological education.
Curr Probl Diagn Radiol
December 2024
Columbia University Irving Center, NY, NY, USA.
Pursuing medical careers like radiology is challenging even for those with high levels of commitment, discipline, and resilience. Many rely on the guidance and support from mentors whose experiences serve as the roadmap for new generations. Unfortunately, finding a mentor can be difficult in certain parts of the world or when physicians decide to live and practice medicine outside their country of origin.

Aortic aneurysm and dissection pose fatal threats but no effective drug therapies are available. Previous work has been directed to reduce risk factors or target key pathological events, but none of the translational efforts succeeds. Here, we attempt to repurpose dimethyl fumarate (DMF), an FDA-approved immunomodulatory drug for multiple sclerosis, for the treatment of aortic aneurysm and dissection.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

Background/objectives: The search for novel ways of providing treatment also targets the development of formulations used in drug delivery. Among the important characteristics of pharmaceutical gels are their ability to penetrate membranes, their capability to offer rapid response, and their capacity to avoid the hepatic metabolization route followed by many drugs. Bigels combine the advantages of both hydrogels and oleogels, creating a biphasic system that might improve the solubility of amiodarone in water, which is otherwise poorly soluble.

Radiography (Lond)
December 2024
University of Hertfordshire, Centre for Research in Public Health and Community Care, School of Health and Social Work, UK.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the experiences of ethnically diverse students in therapeutic radiography, highlighting the impact of institutional racism on their educational outcomes.
- A survey conducted across fourteen universities revealed positive aspects of university experiences but noted a decreased sense of belonging during clinical placements, alongside reported incidents of racism and microaggressions.
- The study suggests the need for clinical placement providers to improve inclusivity and belonging among students, with academic staff playing a key role in supporting these efforts.
Innovative Techniques for Image-guided Percutaneous Puncture: Navigating Complex Cases for Successful Outcomes.
Interv Radiol (Higashimatsuyama)
November 2024
Department of Interventional Radiology, Miyakojima IGRT Clinic, Japan.
This article emphasizes image-guided puncture, a common technique used by interventional radiologists. It focuses on ultrasound, fluoroscopy, computed tomography, and computed tomography fluoroscopy-guided procedures. While techniques vary, successful outcomes without complications still heavily rely on operators' skill and judgment.
