Infusing Sociology into a Physiology Classroom: Teaching the Physiology of Obesity Through a Socioscientific Lens
Adv Physiol Educ. 2023 Sep 21. doi: 10.1152/advan.00093.2023. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTConventional teaching about obesity, especially within a physiology-based course, tends to focus on the biological aspects. Unfortunately, framing obesity from a solely biological perspective ignores many factors that contribute to the condition, leaving students with an overly simplistic idea. We developed an introductory exercise physiology course that was co-taught with a physiologist and sociologist to provide health science majors with a more holistic view of complex socioscientific issues including obesity. From our course stu...

Validated Checklist for Assessing Communication Skills in undergraduate medical students: Bridging the Gap for Effective Doctor-Patient Interactions
In conclusion, the developed checklist proves to be an effective and valid instrument for assessing communication skills in Phase I MBBS students. By integrating this tool into Observed Station Clinical Examinations, medical educators can comprehensively evaluate students' communication behaviors. Moreover, the checklist serves as a valuable resource for bridging the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, enabling future physicians to excel in doctor-patient interactions, a crucial aspect of patient-centered care.PMID:37732370 | DOI:10.1152/advan.00140.2023

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...

Fatal Primary Amebic Meningoencephalitis due to < em > Naegleria fowleri < /em > : The First Imported Case in Korea
Yonsei Med J. 2023 Oct;64(10):641-645. doi: 10.3349/ymj.2023.0189.ABSTRACTPrimary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) is a rare, but almost always fatal, central nervous system infection caused by Naegleria fowleri, which are thermophilic free-living amoeba. Here, we report the first case of PAM detected in South Korea, probably imported from Thailand. Despite antimicrobial treatment for N. fowleri infection with a combination of intravenous liposomal amphotericin B, fluconazole, azithromycin, and oral rifampin, the patient died 13 days after the onset of symptoms. Clinicians in South Korea treating severe meningoencephalitis...

Analysis of Prognoses according to Breast MRI Results in Patients with Axillary Lymph Node Metastases from an Unknown Primary Origin
CONCLUSION: The prognoses of MR-negative patients with ACUPax who received ALND and WBRT followed by chemotherapy were as good as those of patients with MRI-detected primary breast cancers.PMID:37727923 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2023.0181

Hyperpolarized 1- < sup > 13 < /sup > Cpyruvate Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Shows That Agmatine Increased Lactate Production in the Brain of Type 2 Diabetic Mice
CONCLUSION: Agmatine influences the NADH/NAD+ redox state in the brains of T2DM mice, which may be connected with enhanced cognitive performance and increased conversion of HP [1-13C]pyruvate to HP [1-13C]lactate.PMID:37727922 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2022.0554

Rechallenge with Anti-PD-1 Inhibitors in Patients with Recurrent Gynecologic Malignancies
CONCLUSION: These results suggest that responses to ICI rechallenge are not as intolerable as responses to previous ICI. Clinicians should carefully consider rechallenge with PD-1 inhibitors outside of clinical trials until there are sufficient data to routinely support this practice.PMID:37727917 | DOI:10.3349/ymj.2023.0063
