Exploring Factors Influencing Stroke Risk: Insights From a Predictive Analysis.

Introduction Stroke is a serious medical condition characterized by the sudden interruption of blood flow to the brain, resulting in the death of brain cells. It is a leading cause of long-term disability and mortality worldwide. Stroke has some associated risk factors, both modifiable and non-modifiable ones.

Is memorization the name of the game? Undergraduates' perceptions of the usefulness of physiology songs.

The possible benefits of using music to enhance learning of STEM content are numerous, diverse, and largely unproven. We sought to determine which (if any) of these possible benefits are commonly experienced by undergraduate students and are thus especially worthy of further investigation. Four hundred ninety-three students in nine physiology courses at two midsized American universities rated the usefulness of short instructor-penned mathematical physiology songs and explained in their own words why each song would or would not be a useful study aid.
