Virtual reality (VR) produces a virtual manifestation of the real world and has been shown to be useful as digital education modality. As VR encompasses different modalities, tools, applications, there is need explore how used in medical education.The objective this scoping review map existing research on use undergraduate identify areas future research.We performed search 4 bibliographic databases December 2020. Data were extracted using standardized data extraction form. The study was...
There remains great heterogeneity in the availability of data and approaches managing hypertension Asia-Pacific. A narrative review was performed to better understand epidemiology challenges care provision regionally. The obtained were discussed under five domains: epidemiology; hospitalisation financial impact; medication prescription; national guidelines, societies measures; barriers hypertension. Sixteen countries included, with prevalence ranging between 10.6% 48.3%. Rates undiagnosed,...
Although there is established evidence for the treatment of left ventricular thrombus (LVT) at outset, subsequent management these patients less well-defined. This review discusses currently available initial type and duration anticoagulation LVT explores potential options after period anticoagulation. Of 2,052 studies screened, 32 (with three randomised controlled trials) were included. The strategy was either warfarin or direct oral anticoagulants, with majority showing similar outcomes....
Background: Among older adults whose body mass index (BMI) readings may be spuriously reduced due to loss of skeletal muscle, BMI alone lack specificity for fat quantitation. In addition, sex-based hormones differentially influence composition between the sexes with aging. To evaluate cardiometabolic effect on adults, we hypothesize that sex would exert differential effects baseline and progression cardiac dysfunction in adults. Methods: Community without cardiovascular disease (CVD)...
Guidelines recommend risk stratification of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients to guide management. There are currently several scores available, which have largely been validated in various registries the West but not Asia. We aim study performance these different PAH from a multi-ethnic Asian population. A retrospective review all Jan 2014 Jun 2021 tertiary cardiac center was performed. Mortality outcomes were obtained national registries. Using 2022 ESC/ERS, REVEAL Lite 2.0...

Purpose: The consequences of severe traumatic injury extend beyond hospital admission and have the potential for long-term functional, psychological, economic sequalae. This study investigated patient outcomes 6 months following major trauma.Methods: Using National Trauma Registry, database patients who were admitted between 2016-18 in a tertiary trauma [Injury Severity Score (ISS) ≥ 16] review was performed on 6-month [including functional outcomes, self-reported state health outcome scores...
