When students create teaching materials, learning can be enhanced. Therefore, a project was designed based on the traditional clinical case report and the chiropractic technique and principles curriculum at the University of Bridgeport College of Chiropractic. The objectives were to increase mastery in a clinical topic, increase awareness of different patient presentations and management options, and enhance information technology skills. Following lectures about the components of a case report and neurological reflexes related to visceral comorbidities and subluxation and joint dysfunction, students created a case report based on a template provided by the instructor. A survey gathered student perspectives on the exercise. More than 70% of the surveyed students felt the project was at least moderately helpful in improving understanding of a case report, the condition investigated, their clinical reasoning, and the ability to integrate information. Most felt that they improved their understanding of neurological reflexes, use of the literature, and the practice of evidence-based care. The majority believed that they identified weakness in knowledge, improved self-learning skills, and increased confidence in managing patients. Most enjoyed it at least somewhat and 70% agreed that the project should be continued. Many believed that they were better prepared for national boards and had improved their writing skills.

Abstract Background: The increasing opportunities for medical students to participate in international, supervised and structured electives have been shown in our recent study, which enhanced students’ professionalism, cultural competence and clinical reasoning skills in preclinical years. However, evidence is scant in achieving the specific learning objectives and improving clinical reasoning during clinical years. This study aims to demonstrate how the short-term supervised elective can improve students’ clinical reasoning skills, skills of case report writing and satisfactory academic performance.Results: We recorded daily discussions on the demonstrated skills and cases collection with six Curtin Medical School students from Australia during a 19-day supervised elective at the First Affiliated hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, China. The daily clinical reasoning discussions, case collection and bedside demonstrations in different disciplines became the main content of the reflections discussed in this article. Their feedback was recorded post-elective to examine the impact of the exchange in their ongoing case report writing, clinical reasoning skills development and academic performance. The main themes of case-based clinical reasoning identified in the daily discussions and feedbacks were described by the students in two frameworks. Learning through clinical reasoning is well demonstrated during students-supervisors daily debrief. The students have used these clinical reasoning skills in their ensuing clinical placement with satisfactory academic performances. The students have completed two case reports individually with cases for publication in both Australian Doctor and BMJ case report. The supervisors obtained students’ feedbacks at the time of the elective, 6-month and 12-month post-elective, and feedback summary is highlighted in three aspects including improved clinical reasoning skills, scientific writing skills and satisfactory academic performance.Conclusions: These reflections provide insight into how this exchange elective may improve students’ clinical reasoning, enhance scientific writing skills and strengthen academic performance.

AbstractCarcinoid tumours are uncommon and carcinoid syndrome is likely to be encountered only occasionally during a clinical career outside the Neuro-endocrine and related specialties. Two cases of carcinoid syndrome are described in Royal Naval Reserve (RNR) personnel presenting simultaneously in the same unit. Both had long histories and, despite early contact with medical staff, had for some time been dismissed as having trivial complaints. Both have responded well to treatment, though neither has been able to have curative surgery. The current methods of diagnosis which allow much earlier identification and localisation of these tumours are discussed. We also review the management options now available which will control disease and allow the patient to pursue their chosen career, be it military or civil.

This qualitative article analyzes the advantages and challenges that Mexican university professors and students experienced with online translation teaching and learning during the August-December 2020 semester. Data was collected using online semi-structured interviews and non-participant observations involving 39 English language students and two translation professors from the School of Languages and Literatures of the Autonomous University of Queretaro. The findings show that some students could successfully manage distance education due to their organizational and self-learning skills, commitment, motivation, and proper internet access. However, most students faced various technological, didactical, and health issues that interfered with their learning process, which increased their desire to return to regular classes at the university as soon as possible.

Robust Evidence

Clinical case reports play an important role in supporting evidence-based paramedicine. When research on a topic is limited and there is no robust evidence, a case report may be the best available, especially for rare or unusual presentations or in novel clinical practice. Case reports in paramedicine journals are common. However, adherence to the published consensus-based reporting guideline is rare, which may weaken the evidence arising from this body of case report literature. There is a need for greater awareness of the structured reporting guideline for case reports, and for the development of a paramedicine-specific extension. The objectives of this paper are to: describe the current state of case reports in paramedicine; promote the adoption of an internationally accepted, consensus-based reporting guideline; and propose an extension to that guideline, adapted to the unique characteristics of prehospital practice.

Pure Tone Audiogram

Purpose Misophonia is a sound tolerance disorder condition in certain sounds that trigger intense emotional or physiological responses. While some persons may experience misophonia, a few patients suffer from misophonia. However, there is a dearth of literature on audiological assessment and management of persons with misophonia. The purpose of this report is to discuss the assessment of misophonia and highlight the management option that helped a patient with misophonia. Method A case study of a 26-year-old woman with the complaint of decreased tolerance to specific sounds affecting quality of life is reported. Audiological assessment differentiated misophonia from hyperacusis. Management included retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy based on the principles described by P. J. Jastreboff and Jastreboff (2014). A misophonia questionnaire was administered at regular intervals to monitor the effectiveness of therapy. Results A detailed case history and audiological evaluations including pure-tone audiogram and Johnson Hyperacusis Index revealed the presence of misophonia. The patient benefitted from intervention, and the scores of the misophonia questionnaire indicated a decrease in the severity of the problem. Conclusions It is important to differentially diagnose misophonia and hyperacusis in persons with sound tolerance disorders. Retraining counseling as well as desensitization and habituation therapy can help patients who suffer from misophonia.
