Despite professional societies' emphasis on women's health in internal medicine (IM) resident curricula, national implementation has varied. This study describes IM program directors' perceptions of topics that residents should master and the current state education residency programs.We recruited 408 directors programs to complete an electronic cross-sectional survey. Participants were surveyed about expected mastery twelve context their program's characteristics, core training...
The aim of this study was to examine the individual and combined associations leisure-time physical activity sleep with cardiovascular risk factors in postmenopausal women.We analyzed 48-month cross-sectional follow-up data from 393 participants Women on Move Through Activity Nutrition Study, a behavioral weight loss trial. Leisure-time were collected past-year Modifiable Questionnaire, whereas Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. We compared categories using analysis variance, post hoc Scheffe...
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), a fluorescence detection technique, is often used for sensing molecular interactions in solution and membranes. Here we show that (1) FRET spectra can be recorded single bilayers, supported on surface, (2) the fluorescein/rhodamine dye pair an adequate reporter of when spectral used. Thus, measurements pertaining to membranes carried out bilayers. Spectral has advantages over imaging FRET, which monitors only signal amplitudes at certain wavelength....
Female sexual dysfunction (FSD) is common and associated with decreased quality of life, relationship satisfaction, overall well-being. However, primary care practitioners report discomfort discussing, diagnosing, treating FSD.We delivered two sessions on the approach to evaluation treatment FSD: a 60-minute didactic session 90-minute workshop. The intended audience was health professionals who for women. workshop utilized interactive teaching methods including large-group discussion,...
With the advent of nanotechnology, silver nanoparticles increasingly are being used in coatings, especially medical device applications, to capitalize on their antimicrobial properties. The attractiveness nanoparticulate systems is expected increased efficacy relative bulk counterparts, which may be attributed an ion (Ag+) solubility, and hence availability, that arises from capillarity effects small, nanometer-sized particles. However, a change material upon deposited (herein called...
In our internal medicine clinic, calls for concerns related to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outpaced traditional nursing triage protocols, whereas in-person visits and educational obligations residents declined. Similar many primary care practices during COVID-19 pandemic, we needed effectively address both patient residents’ needs. response demand screen symptomatic patients, created a risk assessment process that utilised clinical reasoning skills without direct exposure...
Introduction: High breast density is an independent risk factor for cancer and can decrease the sensitivity of mammography.However, evidence surrounding recommendations patient stratification supplemental screening evolving, providers receive limited training on counseling.Methods: We implemented introductory, interactive workshop about including current behind stratification.Designed who counsel women health, this was evaluated with internal medicine providers, primary care residents,...
ABSTRACT Background Residents and fellows as educators (RFAE) programs typically focus on clinical teaching skills in single departments, which may not be sustainable for those with limited trainees or faculty. Objective To determine the feasibility value of a 2-week interdepartmental RFAE elective advanced skill development transition to practice clinician educators. Methods Facilitated discussion, simulation, critiqued peer presentations developed participants’ teaching, curriculum design,...
OBJECTIVES During the COVID-19 pandemic, medical education programs were challenged to optimize learning while balancing social interaction with exposure risk. In response, our internal medicine (IM) residency program transitioned “simulcast” educational sessions. simulcast sessions, multiple small groups of learners met in person separate rooms and connected large-group session via videoconferencing. This qualitative study describes IM residents’ perceptions regarding advantages...
PURPOSE: To examine the association of leisure physical activity (LPA) and sleep quality with cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) in overweight, postmenopausal women. METHODS: We analyzed cross-sectional 48-month follow-up data from 393 participants (77% randomized) Woman on Move through Activity Nutrition (WOMAN) Study, a lifestyle intervention trial emphasizing weight loss increased LPA low calorie, fat diet. was determined past year Modifiable Questionnaire (MAQ); were collected Pittsburgh...
