Development of critical thinking skills in human anatomy and physiology
Adv Physiol Educ. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1152/advan.00131.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTApplication of knowledge skills are highly valued in clinical medicine as indicated by recent changes to licensure and entrance exams for nursing and physician programs (i.e., the NCLEX and MCAT). Such emphasis should be both welcomed and supported by approaches to teaching human anatomy and physiology that emphasize critical thinking skills built upon logic, reasoning, and judgement. The argument for development of these skills is not simply philosophical, rather, such emphasis is strongly supported by a 2016 Johns Hopkins study1 t...

Advising Orthopaedic Hopefuls in the Wake of a Pass/Fail US Medical Licensing Examination Step 1: A Proposed Method for Predicting US Medical Licensing Examination Step 2 Clinical Knowledge Outcomes
This study aims to offer a method to predict Step 2 CK outcomes based on preadmission and preclinical performance.METHODS: The study investigated 486 students from a US medical school who enrolled in 2017 and 2018. Data on demographics, preadmission, and preclinical performance were collected. Before model creation, it was found that sex, Medical College Admission Test scores, Comprehensive Basic Science Examination performance, and preclinical curriculum performance produced optimal models. Multivariate ordinal logistic regression models were built to predict probabilities of four outcome levels of Step 2 CK: <235, 235...

Using latent class growth analysis to detect group developmental trajectories in preclinical medical education
AbstractMedical educators and programs are deeply interested in understanding and projecting the longitudinal developmental trajectories of medical students after these students are matriculated into medical schools so appropriate resources and interventions can be provided to support students ’ learning and progression during the process. As students have different characteristics and they do not learn and progress at the same pace, it is important to identify student subgroups and address their academic needs to create more equitable learning opportunities. Using latent class growth a nalysis, this study explored stude...

Treatment of multiple adjacent gingival recessions with coronally advanced flap versus modified coronally advanced tunnel with a volumetrically stable collagen matrix: a 12-months randomized controlled clinical trial
CONCLUSIONS: Similar clinical results should be expected when MAGRs are treated with MCAF or MCAT, with the adjunct of VCMX.PMID:37471160 | DOI:10.11607/prd.6796 (Source: International Journal of Periodontics and Restorative Dentistry)
