Predictors of Physician Awareness of the Periodontal Disease-Diabetes Association: A Cross-Sectional Study in Ghana

BackgroundPeriodontal disease (PD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) have a well-established bidirectional relationship, affecting glycaemic control and chronic disease outcomes. However, the extent to which medical training supports physician awareness of this association remains unclear especially in resource-limited settings. ObjectiveTo assess exposure to oral health education and to identify predictors of awareness of PD-DM association among physicians. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 146 physicians managing diabetic patients at a tertiary teaching hospital in Ghana. A structured questionnaire assessed exposure to oral health education, periodontal disease knowledge (score range 0-5), and awareness using a 5-item Likert scale (score range 5-25). Multivariable linear regression identified predictors of awareness. ResultsAlthough 62.1% reported exposure to oral health content during undergraduate training, 59.2% rated its quality as poor. Mean awareness score was 20.6 (S

Moving Beyond Duty Hours: Understanding the Contributors to Internal Medicine Resident Workload and Experience

BackgroundHigh workload among healthcare workers has increasingly been correlated with poor patient outcomes, inefficient operational and financial outcomes, and burnout. Despite growing literature exploring causes of attending physician workload, there is limited understanding of trainee-specific measures. ObjectiveWe aimed to characterize elements contributing to trainee workload and perceived challenges and satisfiers to the trainee workday as a foundation for better understanding and measuring trainee work experience. MethodsInternal Medicine and Medicine-Pediatrics residents at an academic medical center were invited to participate in focus groups discussing contributors to inpatient workload and work experience between March and April 2024. A qualitative content analysis identified key metrics of trainee workload and work experience, which were then consolidated into overarching domains. A structured, multi-round rating process ranked the perceived relevance of each metric. Resul

Large language model scoring of medical student reflection essays: Accuracy and reproducibility of prompt-model variations

IntroductionEvaluate large language models (LLMs) for scoring medical student essays, and compare various prompting techniques and models. MethodsOpenAI GPT scored 51 medical student reflection essays (15 real, 36 fabricated) using a previously-reported 6-point rubric (April-May 2025). We compared 29 prompt-model conditions by systematically varying the LLM prompts (including the persona, scoring rubric, few-shot learning [exemplars], chain-of-thought reasoning, and temperature), fine-tuning, and model (including GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, GPT-o4-mini, and GPT-4-Turbo). Outcomes were accuracy (compared with human raters, measured using single-score intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] and mean absolute difference [MAD; zero indicates perfect agreement]), within-condition reproducibility, and cost. ResultsAcross all conditions, it took mean (SD) 3.73 (3.12) seconds to score 1 essay. The cost to score 100 essays was USD $0.04 for GPT-4.1-mini, $0.21 for GPT-4.1, $0.57 for GPT-4.1 with 3

PRIME-CVD: A Parametrically Rendered Informatics Medical Environment for Education in Cardiovascular Risk Modelling

In recent years, progress in medical informatics and machine learning has been accelerated by the availability of openly accessible benchmark datasets. However, patient-level electronic medical record (EMR) data are rarely available for teaching or methodological development due to privacy, governance, and re-identification risks. This has limited reproducibility, transparency, and hands-on training in cardiovascular risk modelling. Here we introduce PRIME-CVD, a parametrically rendered informatics medical environment designed explicitly for medical education. PRIME-CVD comprises two openly accessible synthetic data assets representing a cohort of 50,000 adults undergoing primary prevention for cardiovascular disease. The datasets are generated entirely from a user-specified causal directed acyclic graph parameterised using publicly available Australian population statistics and published epidemiologic effect estimates, rather than from patient-level EMR data or trained generative mode

Announcement from the Mod team of r/nursing regarding the murder of Alex Pretti, and where we go from here.

Good evening, r/nursing . We know this is a challenging time for all due to the outrageous events that occurred on a Minnesota street yesterday. As your modteam, we would like to take a moment to address some questions we've gotten regarding our moderator actions in the last 48 hours and to make our position on the death of Alex Pretti, and our future moderation actions regarding this topic, completely clear. Six years ago at the beginning of the pandemic, we witnessed an incredible swell of activity from users not typically seen as participants within our community. Misinformation was plentiful and rife. As many of you recall, accusations of nurses harming or outright killing patients to create a 'plandemic' were unfortunately a dime a dozen. We were inundated with vaccine deniers, mask haters, and social distancing detractors. For every voice of reason from a flaired and long-standing contributor in our forum, there was at least one outside interloper here simply to argue. At that ju

NEW FEATURE - PA School Application Timeline

I know that one of the big frustrations in this sub is the inability to discuss many aspects about individual programs. Keep in mind there are more than 300 accredited PA programs in the US, and if everyone were to ask about them, posts would get buried almost immediately. Believe me, SilenceIsAg and I hear you, and have wrestled with trying to find some sort of equitable solution. Today, I created a fillable Google form to let you self-report your contact with programs. The sheet will calculate the days between submission & first real contact, along with the days between interview and final decision. For submission date, please be sure to pick the date that all submission materials were in for a particular program. As in, if you submit CASPA June 14, but you submit a supplemental on June 21, then your submission date would be June 21. A caveat to this is: let's say a program pre-screens applicants and only invites qualified applicants to submit a supplemental. Let's say that you apply

[5/5] Awesome.

I’ve struggled with studying my entire life. I’ve tried numerous different study methods, but the one I’ve found works best for me is flashcards. The only problem is that creating them can be very time-consuming. This app not only allows you to create your own flashcards, but it also gives you the ability to customize little games and quizzes to help reinforce the information and really lock it in. I didn’t realize just how important those additional tools were to my learning experience until I started using them. If you’re someone who struggles with memorization, you have to give Quizlet a try!

[3/5] Good idea, so-so execution, many bugs

Good idea to have this app. The menus are fine; good organization. However, details like actual work submitted or feedback are missing. I don’t think it goes through any testing before deployment. It is riddled with obvious bugs. For example, the grades under Assignment are updated; the grades under Grades are not, even after forcing an update. There is no mechanism to submit bugs; hence, I am using this review (hopefully, someone reads it)

[1/5] Unending notifications

I was and still am struggling with the same hacker situation I was having three years ago. Unfortunately for me, when I actually had this app on my desktop and it didn’t just look like I had it on my desktop, the notifications became a bit personal and intrusive. For instance, one of them said they had gotten enough of my practices recorded that they could make it look like I was doing all sorts of things. Perhaps the words are exactly the same, but nothing I have just said is exaggerated in any form or fashion, and it is the exact meaning of the point they were trying to get across and caught on surveillance tape talking about when I could not hear them. Just mentioning it, because whoever it was might’ve had a different idea for the company than the people leading the company? I didn’t know what was happening back then, but if that had happened now, I would have suggest the company contact the FBI or their internet crimes division. Because, they might have been a bit more than happy

They also only teach treble clief, and I play the bass guitar hoping that I would able to learn bass clief. I don’t even think piano uses treble clief, it’s a C instrument. They aspect you to instantly be able to site read on the spot. They only let you read a measure ahead. That’s like giving a baby a fork and aspecting them to know how to use it.

[3/5] AI concerns

I primarily use Duolingo to study Japanese, and I’m concerned about the accuracy and consistency of the AI-generated content. I’ve noticed recurring pronunciation errors, particularly with は. For example, in から離れます (kara hanaremasu), the は in はなれます should be pronounced “ha,” but the app sometimes pronounces it “wa,” as though it were the topic particle. This is especially frustrating in a language-learning app because learners may not yet know enough to recognize that the pronunciation is incorrect. I’ve also encountered confusing translations that seem to ignore the context of the lesson. For example, while learning the words for “niece” and “nephew,” めい (mei) was unexpectedly translated as someone’s name rather than “niece.” Whether this is an AI error or a design choice, it disrupts the learning pattern and makes the lesson less reliable. I enjoy using Duolingo, but these kinds of errors undermine my confidence in the material. I’d like to see stronger quality control for Japanese p
