Introduction: Over the past several years, undergraduate medical students were subject to variable learning environments amidst pandemic-related restrictions, challenging long-established experiential learning approaches. Concurrently, health science institutions have been revisiting the value (or lack thereof) of human body dissection. This study examined student experience using a supplemental gross anatomy eModule before, during, and after limitation of in-person experiential gross anatomy curriculum and which eModule attributes students find valuable.
Materials And Methods: First-year medical students received a supplemental Distal Upper Limb anatomy eModule from 2019 to 2021 ( = 394). eModule users received a Post-eModule/Pre-Exam survey from 2019 to 2021, and a Post-eModule/Post-Exam survey in 2021. Both surveys included Likert-type and free-response questions.
Results: In Post-eModule/Pre-Exam surveys (2019, 2020, 2021, = 95), students in the 2021 cohort responded most positively to the eModule's convenience, but most negatively when comparing the eModule to in-person dissection. In Post-eModule/Post-Exam surveys (2021, = 18), > 75% of students indicated the eModule adequately prepared them to answer eModule-related exam questions. In free-response submissions, users highlighted the use of photos of anatomic dissections as the most beneficial feature. Deficiencies included the absence of figure legends and limited angles/views of specimens.
Conclusions: This study may serve to guide the features included in future digital gross anatomy resources and aid in illustrating student perception of limited in-person experiential learning opportunities.

Background: Forensic nursing is an evolving specialty focusing on healthcare when legal issues are involved. Valid tools are needed to assess emergency department (ED) nurses' performance of forensic nursing role behaviors and their corresponding perceptions. We aimed to translate and culturally adapt the original English version of the "Emergency Department Forensic Nursing Survey" (EDFNS) into Persian and evaluate its psychometric properties among ED nurses.

Background: The proportion of female ophthalmologists in Germany has risen to approximately 50% in recent years, and approximately 66% of medical students are women. This represents a reversal of the past situation with a male predominance. Despite this change, many international studies show that women are still underrepresented at scientific conferences, particularly among invited speakers, chairpersons, and program committees.

Purpose: This work investigated the effect of FBXO5 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and the mechanism of action of arbutin in its inhibition.
Methods: FBXO5 mRNA and protein expressions in the tumor were assessed using TCGA, ICGC and HPA databases. Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were employed to assess the impact of FBXO5 on the survival outcomes of patients with HCC.

Background: The rapid development of large language models (LLMs) such as OpenAI's ChatGPT has significantly impacted medical research and education. These models have shown potential in fields ranging from radiological imaging interpretation to medical licensing examination assistance. Recently, LLMs have been enhanced with image recognition capabilities.

Background: Structured and standardized documentation is critical for accurately recording diagnostic findings, treatment plans, and patient progress in health care. Manual documentation can be labor-intensive and error-prone, especially under time constraints, prompting interest in the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to automate and optimize these processes, particularly in medical documentation.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of ChatGPT (OpenAI) in generating radiology reports from dental panoramic radiographs, comparing the performance of AI-generated reports with those manually created by dental students.
