ePortfolio improves 'scientist-based' integrative professional and career dev...ePortfolios Australia
A/Professor Jia-Lin Yang has made a distinctive contribution by creating and delivering a ‘scientist-based’, integrative professional, career and ePortfolio learning (IPCEL) curriculum for senior undergraduate cancer science (PATH3208) students. His interactive ePortfolio approach encourages students to think and act like a scientist and to develop the understanding and professional skills for a career in science, providing students with the confidence and capabilities needed ‘to be’ a scientist and leading to careers in science. He used self-efficacy assessment to evaluate and foster student authentic learning. The application of the interactive eportfolio has synergised student 'scientist-based' integrative professional and career development learning. The consequence of the IPCEL approach on students by the end of the course is a high proportion of them get into postgraduate research studies, of whom over half are female, because the students have been motivated as evident by high academic performance, high satisfaction and high self-efficacy.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Tracheal Position: Mediastinum
• Any deviation of the mediastinum is abnormal
• Lateral shift: The mediastinum can be either
pulled or pushed away from the lesion
– Pull: Loss of lung volume (Atelectasis, fibrosis,
agenesis, surgical resection, pleural fibrosis)
– Push: Space occupying lesions (pleural effusion,
pneumothorax, large mass lesions)
– Mediastinal masses and thyroid tumors
24
27. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Chest Expansion
• Asymmetrical chest expansion is abnormal
– The abnormal side expands less and lags
behind the normal side
– Any form of unilateral lung or pleural disease
can cause asymmetry of chest expansion
• Global expansion decrease
27
28. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Percussion: Decreased or Increased
Resonance is Abnormal
• Dullness
– Decreased resonance is noted with pleural effusion
and all other lung diseases
– The dullness is flat and the finger is painful to
percussion with pleural effusion
• Hyper resonance: Increased resonance can be
noted either due to lung distention as seen in
asthma, emphysema, bullous disease or due to
Pneumothorax
• Traube's space
28
29. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Breath sounds: Diminished or Absent
• Intensity of breath sounds, in general, is a good
index of ventilation of the underlying lung.
• Breath sounds are markedly decreased in
emphysema.
• Symmetry: If there is asymmetry in intensity, the
side where there is decreased intensity is
abnormal.
• Any form of pleural or pulmonary disease can
give rise to decreased intensity.
• Harsh or increased: If the intensity increases
there is more ventilation and vice versa.

Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Bronchial
• Bronchial breathing anywhere other than over
the trachea, right clavicle or right inter-scapular
space is abnormal.
• In consolidation, the bronchial breathing is low
pitched and sticky and is termed tubular type of
bronchial breathing.
• In cavitary disease, it is high pitched and hollow
and is called cavernous breathing. You can
simulate this sound by blowing over an empty
coke bottle.

Rhonchi
• Rhonchi are long continuous adventitious
sounds, generated by obstruction to
airways.
• When detected, note whether it is
generalized or localized, during inspiration
or expiration, and the pitch.
• Diffused rhonchi would suggest a disease
with generalized airway obstruction like
asthma or COPD.
32
34. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Rhonchi
• Localized rhonchi suggests obstruction of any
etiology e.g., tumor, foreign body or mucous.
• Mucous secretions will disappear with coughing,
so would the rhonchus.
• Expiratory rhonchi implies obstruction to
intrathoracic airways.
• Asthmatics can also have inspiratory rhonchi
while it is uncommon in COPD.
34
35. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Pleural Rub
• Normal parietal and visceral pleura glide
smoothly during respiration.
• If the pleura is roughened due to any reason, a
scratching, grating sound, related to respiration
is heard.
• You can hear the sound by compressing harder
with the stethoscope and making the patient
take deep breaths.
• It is localized and can be palpable.

Stridor
• Loud audible inspiratory rhonchi is called a
stridor.
• Inspiratory rhonchi in general, implies
large airway obstruction.
37
39. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Crackles
• Interrupted adventitious sounds are called crackles.
• Make a notation about timing, intensity, effect with
respiration, position, coughing and character.
• Timing and Intensity Crackles heard only at the end
of inspiration are called fine crackles.
– When the surfactant is depleted, the alveoli collapse. Air
enters the alveoli at the end of inspiration.
– This sound is generated as the alveoli pop open from it's
collapsed state.
39
40. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Crackles
• When the crackles are heard at the end of
inspiration and the beginning of expiration
the fluid or secretions are probably in
respiratory bronchioles: medium crackles.
• If the crackles are heard throughout it
implies the secretions are in bronchi:
coarse crackles.
40
41. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Voice Transmission
(tactile fremitus, vocal resonance)
• Asymmetrical voice transmission points to
disease on one side.
• Increased:
– Any situation where bronchial breathing is
heard the sounds become loud, sharp and
distinct: Bronchophony.
– In extreme situations, the whispered words
come clearly and distinctly: Whispering
pectoriloquy.
41
42. Introduction to Clinical Medicine
Marc Imhotep Cray, M.D.
Voice Transmission
(tactile fremitus, vocal resonance)
• Decreased: A quantitative decrease in
voice transmission could be due to any
other form of lung or pleural disease.
• Qualitative Alteration:
– A qualitative alteration of voice transmission is
noted over consolidation and along the upper
margin of pleural effusion: Egophony
– The sound is like a nasal twang or goat
bleating.
