Background: Neural activation induced by upper extremity robot-assisted training (UE-RAT) helps characterize adaptive changes in the brains of poststroke patients, revealing differences in recovery potential among patients. However, it remains unclear whether these task-related neural activities can effectively predict rehabilitation outcomes. In this study, we utilized functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to measure participants' neural activity profiles during resting and UE-RAT tasks and developed models via machine learning to verify whether task-related functional brain responses can predict the recovery of upper limb motor function.

Background And Objective: Accurate prediction of perioperative major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) is crucial, as it not only aids clinicians in comprehensively assessing patients' surgical risks and tailoring personalized surgical and perioperative management plans, but also for information-based shared decision-making with patients and efficient allocation of medical resources. This study developed and validated a machine learning (ML) model using accessible preoperative clinical data to predict perioperative MACEs in stable coronary artery disease (SCAD) patients undergoing noncardiac surgery (NCS).
Methods: We collected data from 9171 adult SCAD patients who underwent NCS and extracted 64 preoperative variables.

Objectives: Comprehensive packages for training healthcare professionals who care for premature newborns are scarce. AIIMS WHO CC, New Delhi, partnered with India Association of Neonatal Nurses (IANN) and National Neonatology Forum (NNF) and 35 national leaders in the field of newborn care to develop a multimodal educational package for preterm infants.
Methods: Findings from evaluation of four representative special newborn care units in the state of Madhya Pradesh informed the content of the package.

Even though spontaneous retrieval of analogous cases lacking surface similarity with a target situation typically requires achieving an abstract representation of the target situation, recent studies on analogical argumentation suggest that the deliberate disposition to search for analogous cases in long-term memory (LTM) suffices to increase cross-domain retrieval significantly. However, a limitation of these studies concerns the impossibility to determine whether the analogous situations reported were invented rather than retrieved, and whether there were instances of analogical retrieval that were not reflected in participants' arguments. To overcome these shortcomings, Experiment 1 resorted to a traditional transfer paradigm where a base analog is learned prior to the presentation of the target situation during a contextually-separated phase.

Introduction This study explored the experiences of students and their supervisors undertaking a medication review activity during a 6-week general practice module in their final year of medical school at University of Otago, Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand. Aim The study sought the self-reported value of the activity in learning about prescribing, reflecting on polypharmacy, deprescribing, and changes to future practice for both student and supervisor. Methods All students in the final year general practice module were invited to complete a survey over a 12-month period, as were their supervisors.
