This article presents a series of constructive critiques and proposes a series of potential solutions to address the identified gaps. These include the utilization of experimental or longitudinal designs and the integration of qualitative data in order to gain a more profound understanding of subjective experiences.

This study evaluated the management of dyslipidemia in Turkey with the goal of understanding current diagnosis and treatment patterns, as well as identifying unmet needs in achieving effective low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) targets. Using a Delphi panel consisting of nine expert cardiologists, the study reveals key gaps in dyslipidemia management, particularly in the underutilization of combination therapies, such as statins and PCSK9 inhibitors, which are crucial for achieving LDL-C targets in high-risk patients. The findings indicate that while many patients with very high cardiovascular risk are diagnosed, a significant proportion do not receive optimal treatment to reach LDL-C levels recommended by European guidelines.

Knowledge distillation improves student model performance. However, using a larger teacher model does not necessarily result in better distillation gains due to significant architecture and output gaps with smaller student networks. To address this issue, we reconsider teacher outputs and find that categories with strong teacher confidence benefit distillation more, while those with weaker certainty contribute less.

It impairs quality of life, even in residents of nursing homes, and, in the community, increases the risk of institutionalisation.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide and a major global health concern. In the United States (US), individuals of Black or African American racial identity experience disproportionately higher rates of TBI and suffer from worse post-injury outcomes. Contemporary research agendas have largely overlooked or excluded Black populations, resulting in the continued marginalization of Black patient populations in TBI studies, thereby limiting the generalizability of ongoing research to patients in the US and around the world.
