Carbon savings potential of virtual care in obstructive sleep apnea and otitis media with effusion.

Objective: To determine the carbon savings potential of incorporating virtual care into surgical care pathways for pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea or otitis media with effusion.

Methods: Pediatric patients with obstructive sleep apnea or otitis media with effusion were not enrolled, instead, a modeling cohort study design was used. This study utilized the British Columbia healthcare system and geography to model emissions.

Quality and readability of online information on idiopathic subglottic stenosis.

Objective: Idiopathic subglottic stenosis (ISS) is a chronic condition characterized by disease recurrence and multiple surgeries. These frustrated patients may utilize the internet to research their condition. The aim of this study was to determine the quality and readability of online ISS information.

Virus-induced gene silencing as a tool for functional studies in .

Premise: Cleomaceae is emerging as a promising family to investigate a wide range of phenomena, such as C photosynthesis and floral diversity. However, functional techniques are lacking for elucidating this diversity. Herein, we establish virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) as a method of generating functional data for , bolstering Cleomaceae as a model system.
