    Abstract Background: Public awareness of the role of pharmacists and availability of pharmacy services in Qatar is low. As per agenda-setting theory, mass media may be contributing toward this problem by selecting and disseminating headlines and stories according their own objectives and not those of the profession.
    Objectives: The objective of this study was to examine the agenda set by mass media organizations in Qatar pertaining to the profession of pharmacy and to determine the frequency of professional identifiers that appear within news headlines.
    Methods: Publicly available news headlines published between November 2016 and November 2018 were obtained from local news websites. Thematic analysis was performed using agenda-setting theory to explore how the public's agenda was set for pharmacy practice in Qatar. Content analysis was used to determine the proportion of headlines that contained a professional identifier linking the news report to the pharmacy profession.
    Results: A total of 81 headlines were included in the analysis. The agenda for pharmacy practice in Qatar was set according to two themes: achievement and outreach/engagement. Achievement related to awards, use of new technologies, interprofessional education, and novel student training accomplishments. Outreach/engagement reported student and pharmacist involvement upon completion of a health awareness event. Approximately half (47%) of headlines contained a professional identifying word linking the headline to the profession of pharmacy.
    Conclusions: The findings of this study demonstrate that the mass media's agenda for the pharmacy profession in Qatar does not inform the public of pharmacist's services or expanded scopes of practice. Furthermore, a lack of professional identifiers within headlines likely limits the public's agenda of pharmacist roles. The pharmacy profession must work collaboratively with news media to better align the public's agenda with pharmacists' roles and services.

    Abstract Background: Bowel endometriosis impacts quality of life. Treatment requires complex surgical procedures with associated morbidity. Precision approach with robotic surgery leads to organ preservation. Bowel endometriosis requires a multidisciplinary management to improve patient outcomes. This study evaluates perioperative outcomes of bowel endometriosis undergoing multidisciplinary planning and robotic surgery.
    Methods: Consecutive cases of multidisciplinary robotic bowel endometriosis procedures (January 2021-December 2022) were evaluated from a prospectively maintained database in a national endometriosis accredited centre. Patients were managed through a multidisciplinary setting including gynaecologists, colorectal robotic surgeons, and other specialists. Dyschezia (menstrual and non-cyclical) and quality of life were assessed pre- and postoperatively (6 months) through validated questionnaires.
    Results: Sixty-eight consecutive cases of robotic bowel endometriosis were included. Median age was 35.0 (30.2-42.0) years. Median body mass index was 24.0 (21.0-26.7) kg/m
    Conclusions: Robotic multidisciplinary approach to bowel endometriosis provides good perioperative outcomes with improvement of dyschezia and quality of life.

    Abstract Study design: Systematic review.
    Objectives: Primary Spinal Intradural Tumours (PSITs) are rare pathologies that can significantly impact quality of life. This study aimed to review patient reported outcomes (PROs) in PSITs.
    Methods: A systematic search of Pubmed and Embase was performed to identify studies measuring PROs in adults with PSITs. PRO results were categorised as relating to Global, Physical, Social, or Mental health. Outcomes were summarised descriptively.
    Results: Following review of 2382 records, 11 studies were eligible for inclusion (737 patients). All studies assessed surgically treated patients. Schwannoma was the commonest pathology (n = 190). 7 studies measured PROs before and after surgery, the remainder assessed only post-operatively. For eight studies, PROs were obtained within 12 months of treatment. 21 PRO measurement tools were used across included studies, of which Euro-Qol-5D (n = 8) and the pain visual/numerical analogue scale (n = 5) were utilised most frequently. Although overall QoL is lower than healthy controls in PSITs, improvements following surgery were found in Extramedullary tumours (EMT) in overall physical, social, and mental health. Similar improvements were not significant across studies of Intramedullary tumours (IMT). Overall QoL and symptom burden was higher in IMT patients than in brain tumour patients. No studies evaluated the effect of chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
    Conclusion: Patients with PSITs suffer impaired PROs before and after surgery. This is particularly true for IMTs. PRO reporting in PSITs is hindered by a heterogeneity of reporting and varied measurement tools. This calls for the establishment of a standard set of PROs as well as the use of registries.

    Abstract Introduction: Applications to pharmacy programs are declining worldwide. Previous research suggests that positioning of recruitment material according to prospective students' preferences may increase interest in the profession and entry-to-practice programs. The aim of this study was to determine messaging preferences for the role of the pharmacist.
    Methods: This was a best-worst choice survey conducted at one institution in one country. Participants included prospective students, current pharmacy students, and others representing the general public. Thirteen statements (plus one control) describing the role of the pharmacist were extracted from pharmacy program websites. Survey participants completed the best-worst choice analysis, and a conditional logit model was used to estimate statement preference coefficients.
    Results: A total of 150 complete survey responses were collected. The top ranked statement was, "Pharmacists are health care professionals who are experts in medicines" and the least ranked statement was the control statement, "Pharmacists are experts in dispensing medications and counting tablets." No differences were observed between the different groups of survey respondents. Other highly ranked statements spoke to the expertise of the pharmacist and promoted a well-defined role. Catchy statements, such as "Pharmacists are medicines superheroes," were not ranked highly.
    Conclusions: This study found that current and prospective pharmacy students preferred descriptive and explicit messages that align with pharmacists' professional identity for promotion of the pharmacist's role.

    Abstract Introduction: Maintaining self-motivation during challenging times can be difficult. In this commentary, we consider self-determination theory to explore factors that can influence intrinsic motivation to progress scholarly work. The place of extrinsic motivation is also considered, on the continuum of self-determination.
    Commentary: Using the components of self-determination theory, autonomy, mastery, and connection; academics, clinicians, and students, working in different environments, were asked to provide personal experiences and perspectives on their ability to maintain motivation during the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. Self-assessment questions were used to guide reflections.
    Implications: Motivation, and in particular intrinsic motivation, can be impacted negatively during challenging times. Using a motivation framework can help identify personal factors that can be strengthened and developed over time. It is recognised that extrinsic factors are important in maintaining motivation. However, intrinsic motivation is a powerful driver to sustain and progress high quality work. Practical strategies and ideas are described to harness and develop self-motivation to pursue scholarly work, during challenging times.

    Abstract Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop research-informed guidance on how to better prepare students for working with diverse populations through exposure to diversity representation within case-based learning materials.
    Methods: This was a qualitative interpretive phenomenological study using audio-recorded semi-structured interviews for data collection. Interviews were conducted virtually with 15 recent program alumni from Dalhousie University and 15 members from underrepresented communities in Nova Scotia, Canada. Audio-recordings were transcribed verbatim and framework analysis was used to code and categorize data. Themes were interpreted from categorized data and a conceptual model was developed based on the results.
    Results: The conceptual model highlighted that awareness of diversity and health equity paired with practice and application of learning were perceived to be important for preparing graduates for practice. It was found that awareness could be best achieved through exposure to diversity within cases. To effectively expose students, programs must deliberately identify diverse populations to include, seek perspectives and engagement from those populations when writing cases, ensure conscientious representation of diversity without reinforcing stereotypes, and provide resources for discussion and further learning.
    Conclusion: Through the development of a conceptual model, this study provided research-informed guidance representing diversity within case-based learning materials. Findings support the notion that representation of diversity must be deliberate, conscientious, and collaborative with those offering diverse perspectives and lived experiences.
