Abstract Background The increasing linguistic and cultural diversity in the United States underscores necessity of enhancing healthcare professionals' cross-cultural communication skills. This study focuses on incorporating interpreter limited-English proficiency (LEP) patient training into medical physician assistant student curriculum. aims to improve equitable care provision, addressing vulnerability LEP patients disparities, including errors reduced access. Though is recognized as...
The secreted protein isthmin-1 (Ism1) mitigates diabetes by increasing adipocyte and skeletal muscle glucose uptake activating the PI3K-Akt pathway. However, while both Ism1 insulin converge on these common targets, has distinct cellular actions suggesting divergence in downstream intracellular signaling pathways. To understand biological complexity of signaling, we performed phosphoproteomic analysis after acute exposure, revealing overlapping pathways insulin. We identify a 53% overlap...
