The functional neuroanatomy of emotion recognition is inadequately understood despite well-documented clinical situations where impaired (aprosodia). Oxygen-15 water positron-emission tomography (PET) was used to study 9 healthy women volunteers during three match-to-sample conditions, each repeated twice: a task matching facial emotions and control tasks spatial positions or identity. Results suggest that the higher order neural network for recognizing in visual input likely involves right...
Mobile learning (mLearning) devices (such as tablets and smartphones) are increasingly part of the clinical environment but there is a limited somewhat conflicting literature regarding impact such in environment. This study aims to: assess mLearning on medical students' studying habits, attitudes towards mobile device supported learning; perceived reaction clinicians patients to use these setting.Over three consecutive academic years, 18 cohorts students (total n = 275) six-week rotation at...
Intraplatelet serotonin (5-HT) content was determined in 23 patients with type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (IDDM), II (non-insulin-dependent) (NIDDM), 29 peripheral vascular disease (PVD) and 34 age-matched normal subjects. 5-HT subjects showed an age-related decline (r = -0.45; P less than 0.008), as has been previously demonstrated. The median platelets of the young 4.36 (range: 3.62-6.79) nmol 10(-9) platelets, while that elderly 3.87 2.8-6.0) + 4.05 2.8-6.8) platelets....
Peer-assisted learning (PAL) has become increasingly popular over recent years with many medical schools now formally incorporating peer-teaching programs into the curriculum. PAL a sound evidence base benefit to both peer-teacher and peer-learner. Aside from in teaching delivery, empowering students develop education its broadest sense been much less extensively documented.Five case studies supportive evaluation illustrate success of broad range peer-led projects undergraduate curriculum,...
The total circulating osteocalcin and ratio of inactive (noncarboxylated; GLU) to active (carboxylated; GLA) form were measured in patients receiving long term warfarin treatment (n = 20), age-matched control not 10), normal subjects before after the administration 30 mg 7). There was no significant difference concentrations between treatment, it did significantly change ingestion subjects. GLU/GLA increased (P < 0.002) compared with that patients. a increase 0.01) This study demonstrates...
Testosterone was measured in maternal plasma (58 samples), amniotic fluid (71 samples) and fetal (55 79 patients between 15 23 weeks' gestation. Maternal testosterone levels were unrelated to sex. Amniotic significantly higher male than female fetuses but did not reliably predict A correct diagnosis of sex made by assay pure 39 out 40 males females using 1.70 nmol/l as the cut-off value. This investigation is method choice for routine sexing may be value suspected having certain endocrine disorders.
Context Peer-assisted learning (PAL) is recognised as an effective tool and its benefits are well documented in a range of educational settings. Learners find it enjoyable their performances assessments comparable with those students taught by faculty tutors. In addition, PAL tutors themselves report the development improved clinical skills confidence through tutoring. However, whether tutoring leads to actual improvement performance has not been fully investigated. Objectives As...
Training to be a doctor and caring for patients are recognized as being stressful demanding. The wellbeing of healthcare professionals impacts upon the care patients. Schwartz Centre Rounds (SCRs), multidisciplinary meetings led by trained facilitator designed hospital staff, were introduced enhance communication compassion, have since been widely adopted way fostering compassion. continuum education suggests that medical students need develop these attributes in conjunction with resilience...
Thirty-six patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) receiving calcium and calciferol supplements (100,000 IU monthly by im injection) were investigated for their calcium, vitamin D, PTH, osteocalcin status. The corrected plasma concentrations in PBC significantly greater than those normal subjects. While the mean serum 25-hydroxycholecalciferol 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D these similar to subjects, PTH concentration was greater, it supranormal 11 patients. Three had elevated concentrations;...
Portfolios are increasingly used in undergraduate and postgraduate medical education. Four schools have collaborated with an established NHS electronic portfolio provider to develop implement authentic professional for students. We hypothesized that using would significant advantages students, particularly familiarizing them the tool many will continue use years after graduation. This paper describes early evaluation of this at two participating schools. To gather data, a questionnaire...
Peer-assisted learning (PAL) was implemented in the context of delivering training with a simulator, Haptic Cow. This project undertaken as way increasing student access to simulator and investigate possibility using PAL more extensively curriculum. Peer tutors attended workshop learn basic teaching skills were then trained use simulator. The taught their peers for bovine rectal palpation evaluated questionnaires focus group gather feedback from both learners. Sixteen peer 99 fellow students...
Good Medical Practice, produced by the General Council (GMC), represents professional code of practice for doctors in UK. It is regularly updated to reflect changing relationships profession with both patients and society general. The discourse within this guidance appears have shifted over time a stance that aligns itself more closely protection patients, rather than traditional provision support doctors.Tag clouds are feature latest applications World Wide Web, commonly known as Web 2.0....
Plasma histamine concentrations were measured using a commercially available monoclonal antibody radioimmunoassay in 38 patients with nephrotic syndrome, end stage renal failure, those receiving haemodialysis, and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis to determine whether may mediate damage glomerular capillaries arterial endothelium. significantly increased all four patient groups when compared of controls the highest two pruritus.
