Association between learning environment interventions and medical student well-being: a systematic review

education interventions

Meli L, Falzon L.
GSID: nOMUTl1fm5QJ
LT Wasson, A Cusmano, L Meli, I Louh, L Falzon… - Jama, 2016 - jamanetwork.com

… The MERSQI was preferred to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale–Education (NOS-E), another assessment tool for medical education research quality, because it was found to have generally higher interrater reliability (0.68-0.89) 11 than the NOS-E. This may be due to its...

Carriage of multidrug-resistant organisms in a tertiary university hospital in Albania-a point prevalence survey.

Antimicrobial resistance and infection control

Parascandalo FA, Zarb P, Tartari E, Lacej D, Bitincka S, Manastirliu O, Nika D, Borg MA.
PMID: 27499852
Antimicrob Resist Infect Control. 2016 Aug 05;5:29. doi: 10.1186/s13756-016-0128-1. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial resistance has been recognised as a serious global Public Health problem. Prevalence of Multiple-Drug-Resistant (MDR) organism carriage in Albania is largely unknown since no national surveillance system is in place and few publications are accessible in the...

Primary synovial sarcoma of the lung: can haemothorax be the first manifestation?.

Journal of thoracic disease

Woo WL, Panagiotopoulos N, Gvinianidze L, Fhadil S, Borg E, Falzon M, Lawrence D.
PMID: 25590001
J Thorac Dis. 2014 Dec;6(12):E249-51. doi: 10.3978/j.issn.2072-1439.2014.11.01.

Primary pulmonary synovial sarcomas represent a rare clinical entity and account for approximately 0.5% of lung malignancies. We report the case of a 30-year-old male who presented clinically with haemothorax. Imaging revealed a complex collection obscuring a multi-lobulated mass...

Manganese doped-iron oxide nanoparticle clusters and their potential as agents for magnetic resonance imaging and hyperthermia.

Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP

Casula MF, Conca E, Bakaimi I, Sathya A, Materia ME, Casu A, Falqui A, Sogne E, Pellegrino T, Kanaras AG.
PMID: 27282828
Phys Chem Chem Phys. 2016 Jun 22;18(25):16848-55. doi: 10.1039/c6cp02094a.

A simple, one pot method to synthesize water-dispersible Mn doped iron oxide colloidal clusters constructed of nanoparticles arranged into secondary flower-like structures was developed. This method allows the successful incorporation and homogeneous distribution of Mn within the nanoparticle iron...

Tuning the thermoelectric properties of a single-molecule junction by mechanical stretching.

Physical chemistry chemical physics : PCCP

Torres A, Pontes RB, da Silva AJ, Fazzio A.
PMID: 25612893
Phys Chem Chem Phys. 2015 Feb 21;17(7):5386-92. doi: 10.1039/c4cp04635h.

We theoretically investigate, as a function of the stretching, the behaviour of the thermoelectric properties - the Seebeck coefficient (S), the electronic heat conductance (κel) and the figure of merit (ZT) - of a molecule-based junction composed of a...

A new class of large band gap quantum spin hall insulators: 2D fluorinated group-IV binary compounds.

Scientific reports

Padilha JE, Pontes RB, Schmidt TM, Miwa RH, Fazzio A.
PMID: 27212604
Sci Rep. 2016 May 23;6:26123. doi: 10.1038/srep26123.

We predict a new class of large band gap quantum spin Hall insulators, the fluorinated PbX (X = C, Si, Ge and Sn) compounds, that are mechanically stable two-dimensional materials. Based on first principles calculations we find that, while...

Bedaquiline in the multidrug-resistant tuberculosis treatment: Belarus experience.

International journal of mycobacteriology

Skrahina A, Hurevich H, Falzon D, Zhilevich L, Rusovich V, Dara M, Setkina S.
PMID: 28043617
Int J Mycobacteriol. 2016 Dec;5:S62-S63. doi: 10.1016/j.ijmyco.2016.11.014. Epub 2016 Nov 23.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE: Outcomes of treatment for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) remain poor worldwide. Among patients with MDR-TB in Belarus who started treatment in 2012, only 54% completed it successfully, with treatment failure reported in 22% of the patients; additionally, 11% died...

A facile method to compare EFTEM maps obtained from materials changing composition over time.

Microscopy research and technique

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is composed of a group of lymphoid malignancies that has been increasing in incidence at an annual rate of 4% to 7% over the last 20 years in both the United States and Europe. The reasons...

Non-nucleotide Agonists Triggering P2X7 Receptor Activation and Pore Formation.

Frontiers in pharmacology

Di Virgilio F, Giuliani AL, Vultaggio-Poma V, Falzoni S, Sarti AC.
