Social Media and Web 2.0 for Emergency Medicine – the Luddiot’s guidedreapadoirtas
Web 2.0 and social media can be valuable tools for emergency medicine practitioners if used constructively. They provide windows into literature, evidence and resources from an international medical community and allow sharing of ideas without barriers. While criticisms exist around potential abuse and limitations, the educational benefits of social media outweigh the downsides when used appropriately. Key resources highlighted include Lifeinthefastlane.com as a repository for EM information and the speaker's own blog for linking to other social media platforms. The future of medical education and practice will increasingly incorporate these tools.

Sarah recorded her media use and production over two weeks. She found that she spent the most time on her phone messaging and calling. She also spent about 17 hours on Facebook. Her television watching, lectures, and production varied around 6.3 hours per week. This use aligns with trends of increasing social media and decreasing email use among students. While her news sources were typical for students, her social media engagement was less than journalism students at UQ. Analyzing her diary showed she was more consistent with school and emails than developing her journalistic skills through news and social media.

This document provides an introduction to debate and the debate process. It explains that debates involve proposing a plan to enact the yearly resolution and arguing for or against the proposed plan. Students are assigned to argue either the affirmative or negative side. The goal is to prove one's own argument and refute the other side's arguments using research, logic, and strategic techniques. Practice examples are provided to demonstrate how to refute opposing arguments using a standard format. Preparation materials like folders, paper, and a timer are also listed.
This document provides an overview of advanced debating techniques. It discusses the components of a basic argument: content, organization, and delivery. For organization, it recommends using the ARE structure of argument, reason, and evidence. For delivery, it recommends considering audibility, engagement, conviction, authority, and likability. It then discusses how to make arguments more persuasive through "chunking" - relating arguments to abstract principles, real-world examples, and analogies. It provides examples and recommends debaters practice these techniques to strengthen their persuasive abilities.

The document discusses communication in nursing. It aims to define communication, list the channels and levels of communication in nursing, and understand factors influencing communication and techniques for therapeutic communication. Specific objectives include defining communication, understanding purposes of communication in nursing systems, barriers to communication, and addressing impaired verbal communication. Communication is defined as the exchange of information between individuals and is the foundation of nurse-patient interactions. Channels of communication include verbal, non-verbal, and written forms. Factors like developmental level and sociocultural differences can influence communication.
There are three main types of speeches: informative speeches which provide information to educate an audience, persuasive speeches which challenge beliefs and try to convince an audience, and special occasion speeches given for specific events. Informative speeches can be about objects, events, concepts, or processes. Persuasive speeches can address questions of fact, value, or policy. Special occasion speeches must fit the occasion, meet time limits, and have accurate information. Understanding speech types helps the speaker effectively deliver the right message.
The document discusses different types of debates, including the Lincoln-Douglas debate, rebuttal debate, and Oregon-Oxford debate. It explains the typical structure and flow of an Oregon-Oxford debate, which involves three speakers from each side presenting arguments and rebuttals. The document also outlines important concepts in debating like issues, aspects to debate (necessity, beneficiality, practicability), speaker roles, and common fallacies to avoid in arguments.
This document provides an overview of basic debating skills. It explains that a debate involves arguing for or against a topic using strict rules of conduct and sophisticated arguing techniques. A topic defines what will be debated, with an affirmative team arguing for the topic and a negative team arguing against it. Each debating team has three speakers with specified roles, such as defining the topic, presenting arguments, rebutting the opposing team's arguments, and summarizing their team's position. Speakers are evaluated on the substance of their arguments, how well they are organized and presented, and their public speaking mannerisms. The goal is to build a persuasive case using clear logic and examples while following proper debating protocols.
The document provides guidance on writing a persuasive essay or paper. It explains that a persuasive essay attempts to convince the reader of a particular viewpoint using sound reasoning and evidence. It should introduce the topic and thesis, state facts of the case, prove the thesis with arguments, disprove opposing arguments, and conclude. The thesis usually appears at the end of the introduction as a one sentence summary. The essay should explain the topic, give supporting facts cited from sources, present facts building the strongest argument last, and conclude by restating why the audience should be persuaded. When planning, the writer should choose a position, analyze the audience, research the topic, and structure the essay.

LinkedIn is a business-oriented social networking system service. The purpose of this social media service is to build your professional identity, stay in contact with past classmates and colleagues, discover professional opportunities, business deals, and new ventures (LinkedIn, 2016). In addition, you can get the latest news, inspiration, and insights on your personal career. In the last few years, this social media avenue has become familiar for employees and employers to connect with others. In addition, it has been used to relay messages about careers, personal information, highlights, negatives, and important news of people or groups, such as nurses. In saying that, LinkedIn has the power of helping or hurting your reputation as a nurse. People in groups can comment and discuss your performance and if it is negative, such as being put on suspension for coming to work under the influence, your future will be in jeopardy, due to exposure of this information.
The media can negatively influence the public’s perspective of nursing by what is exposes. For example, many people have heard of the show Grey’s Anatomy. On this show, there is a cast of good looking nurses and doctors, that have romantic relationships with one another, and even perform sexual acts in the hospital setting. It is full of drama and non-realistic expectations and scenarios nurses face. So, when many people around the world gather to watch this show, they assume that this drama is what nursing entails. On the contrary, there are guidelines to dating and especially, performing sexual acts on the job at the job location. Another example, would be how nurses are still viewed as sexy icons. During Halloween, there are multiple sexy costumes of nurses that portray nursing idealizations of the past. Nursing has come so far, yet, there are some who will visualize the ‘sexiness’ of nursing due to the images they have been exposed to. A last example, of how media can affect nursing reputation poorly, is the news media. People all over the world turn on the television to stay informed on what is happening around the world. Recently, there has been the subject if the Zika Virus. Many news stations and radio stations have discussed the disease, ways to minimize acquiring the virus and so on. I listened to a radio station that was talking about mothers moving away from Miami, in fear of becoming pregnant or being pregnant and giving birth to a child with defects, due to the disease. All the show did was scare me and make me want to flee Miami! At the end of the day media affects society and their perspectives.
Other than social media, there are medical and nursing journals that educate people on nursing, such as the American Nursing Journal. In addition, there are newspapers and newsletters, that can be found in the community or hospitals to highlight achievements or stories that have positive.

The passage discusses the concept of the American Dream as portrayed in Sandra Cisneros' novel The House on Mango Street. It explores how the protagonist Esperanza envisions achieving the American Dream through escaping the cramped tenement house she lives in and attaining things like a nice home and financial stability. However, the passage also notes that Cisneros challenges the traditional American Dream by depicting Esperanza's realization that true freedom comes from within rather than from material possessions or social status.
Social media is becoming increasingly important in the medical field. While some doctors are slow to adopt social media, medical schools are now teaching students how to properly use social media in their practices. Social media allows doctors to connect with existing patients and attract new ones. It provides a way for doctors to share medical updates and advice and build relationships with patients. Although some doctors worry about privacy and professionalism, social media can enhance a practice if used appropriately. The majority of adults now use social media, so it remains an effective way for doctors to communicate with patients of all ages.
Doctors who use social media not only can spread the word about new medical updates, treatments or other relevant news, but also specific information about their practices. Dr. Howard Luks, an orthopedic surgeon, says: “Only the oil refinery business lags behind health care in digital media adoption.” For doctors, it is no longer practical not to have an online presence. While it might seem foolish to be updating a Facebook page or uploading YouTube videos, there are plenty of advantages.
Edge Talk: Exploring online health communities, with Paul Hodgkin and Ben MetzHorizons NHS
The document summarizes a presentation given by Paul Hodgkin and Ben Metz on exploring online health communities. They discuss several barriers to online health communities including technology disrupting traditional communication models in healthcare, financial and business model constraints, differences between medical and social media models of knowledge, issues with scaling communities large enough to attract investors while maintaining intimacy, and challenges reconciling lightly governed online spaces with heavily regulated healthcare systems like the NHS. They propose a model of "clustered scaling" with many smaller interconnected communities rather than one large unified platform.

1) The document discusses research on Chlamydiaphage Chp2, a bacteriophage that infects obligate intracellular bacteria called Chlamydophila.
2) Chp2 was the second chlamydiaphage discovered. It was found to infect some species of Chlamydophila but not Chlamydia.
3) Subsequent research showed that Chp2 binds to protein receptors on Chlamydophila and uses a scaffolding protein during assembly similarly to other microviridae like phiX174. This provides insight into Chp2's life cycle and potential for use in transgenic research.

Virginia Henderson was a pioneering American nurse who made major contributions to the nursing profession between 1897-1996. She created the first bachelor's and master's nursing programs, authored influential nursing textbooks, and established nursing research organizations. Henderson defined nursing as assisting individuals with 14 fundamental needs and recovery. She saw nurses as independent practitioners and potential primary health care providers of the future.

Gene therapy can be broadly defined as the transfer of genetic material to cure a disease or at least to improve the clinical status of a patient.
One of the basic concepts of gene therapy is to transform viruses into genetic shuttles, which will deliver the gene of interest into the target cells.
Safe methods have been devised to do this, using several viral and non-viral vectors.
In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery.
The biggest hurdle faced by medical research in gene therapy is the availability of effective gene-carrying vectors that meet all of the following criteria:
Protection of transgene or genetic cargo from degradative action of systemic and endonucleases,
Delivery of genetic material to the target site, i.e., either cell cytoplasm or nucleus,
Low potential of triggering unwanted immune responses or genotoxicity,
Economical and feasible availability for patients .
Viruses are naturally evolved vehicles that efficiently transfer their genes into host cells.
Choice of viral vector is dependent on gene transfer efficiency, capacity to carry foreign genes, toxicity, stability, immune responses towards viral antigens and potential viral recombination.
There are a wide variety of vectors used to deliver DNA or oligo nucleotides into mammalian cells, either in vitro or in vivo.
The most common vector system based on retroviruses, adenoviruses, herpes simplex viruses, adeno associated viruses.
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.
Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.
