    Abstract Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, many colleges shifted to online learning, creating a need for teaching materials that could be deployed in the online setting. A pair of virtual laboratory exercises with a COVID-19 theme were created for first year Biology majors to introduce students to the topics of polymerase chain reaction and gel electrophoresis. The exercises were effective in promoting student learning of both topics in an online asynchronous setting, and could easily be adapted for use in other courses or in a synchronous online setting.

    Abstract Cullin 3 (Cul3) has recently been implicated in a multitude of different processes, including the oxidative stress response, autophagy, tumorigenesis, and differentiation. To investigate the role of Cul3 in mammary gland development, we created a mouse model system using Cre-lox targeting where Cul3 is specifically deleted from the mammary gland. Such MMTV-Cre Cul3Fˡˣ/Fˡˣ mice examined at 2 and 3 months of age show delays and defects in mammary gland development. Mammary ductal trees from Cul3-deficient mammary glands exhibit delayed forward growth through the mammary fat pad, dilation of the ducts, and abnormal morphology of some of the epithelial structures within the gland. Additionally, terminal end buds are larger and less plentiful in MMTV-Cre Cul3Fˡˣ/Fˡˣ mammary glands, and there is significantly less primary and secondary branching compared to control animals. In contrast, by 6 months of age, the mammary ductal tree has grown to fill the entire mammary fat pad in glands lacking Cul3. However, distorted epithelial structures and dilated ducts persist. MMTV-Cre Cul3Fˡˣ/Fˡˣ mothers are able to nourish their litters, but the process of involution is slightly delayed in mammary glands lacking Cul3. Therefore, we conclude that while Cul3 is not essential for mammary gland function, Cul3 is required for the mammary gland to proceed normally through development.

    Abstract The concept of standardized patients (SPs) was first introduced in the 1960s by Dr. Howard Barrows of the University of Southern California and has been applied in medical school education since that time. This practice has allowed medical students to practice skills on live persons who are teachers rather than on real patients, who may be endangered by their emerging skills. Previous studies supported the use of SPs but did not measure whether they improved clinical competence or students' confidence in their skills. This literature review evaluated whether current medical education literature supports or refutes the use of SPs compared to other modalities such as simulated patients (SiPs) and virtual reality (VR) in the improvement of student confidence, clinical performance, and interpersonal communication skills. The research questions posed for this review were as follows: do medical students in their first two years of education who have practiced skills using SPs have more self-confidence in their ability to perform skills on real patients than those students who did not use SPs, do medical students in their third and fourth years of medical school have higher clinical competency with sensitive patient examinations after using SPs in their first two years of medical education than those students who did not use SPs, and do medical students who have used SPs for discussing sensitive issues have better interpersonal skills when they encounter real patients in the clinical setting than those who have not used SPs? The methodology for this descriptive, systematic review of the literature was organized using a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) flowchart to describe how articles were collected and synthesized to evaluate the variables under study. The results of this study revealed that students learned the most when SPs were used because they were able to teach students the skills that they needed in a safe learning environment. Medical students performing sensitive patient examinations with SPs learned not only how to perform the examinations but also how to improve their communication with patients. Students and residents reported increased confidence and clinical competence when performing new skills with SPs rather than with peer practice, virtual reality, or real patients in a clinical setting. Although the utilization of SPs has been studied in multiple ways and found to be a powerful tool in the education of undergraduate medical students and interns, there is still much study to be done to address the human needs of real patients. Gaps in this literature included small sample sizes, a lack of standardized assessment tools, and the need to include a multidisciplinary approach that addresses cultural awareness and appreciation. The authors found limited studies analyzing the effect the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic had on the use of SPs in medical school education. Continued scientific inquiry in post-pandemic medical education is an essential component for dissemination as most schools have reintroduced the use of SPs, which strengthens the concept that their use is superior to the other simulation methods used when SPs were not available.

    Abstract An unsettled question in attachment theory and research is the extent to which children's attachment patterns with mothers and fathers jointly predict developmental outcomes. In this study, we used individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis to assess whether early attachment networks with mothers and fathers are associated with children's internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems. Following a pre-registered protocol, data from 9 studies and 1,097 children (mean age: 28.67 months) with attachment classifications to both mothers and fathers were included in analyses. We used a linear mixed effects analysis to assess differences in children's internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems as assessed via the average of both maternal and paternal reports based on whether children had two, one, or no insecure (or disorganized) attachments. Results indicated that children with an insecure attachment relationship with one or both parents were at higher risk for elevated internalizing behavioral problems compared with children who were securely attached to both parents. Children whose attachment relationships with both parents were classified as disorganized had more externalizing behavioral problems compared to children with either one or no disorganized attachment relationship with their parents. Across attachment classification networks and behavioral problems, findings suggest (a) an increased vulnerability to behavioral problems when children have insecure or disorganized attachment to both parents, and (b) that mother-child and father-child attachment relationships may not differ in the roles they play in children's development of internalizing and externalizing behavioral problems.

    Abstract Collagen VI-related dystrophies (COL6-RDs) manifest with a spectrum of clinical phenotypes, ranging from Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD), presenting with prominent congenital symptoms and characterised by progressive muscle weakness, joint contractures and respiratory insufficiency, to Bethlem muscular dystrophy, with milder symptoms typically recognised later and at times resembling a limb girdle muscular dystrophy, and intermediate phenotypes falling between UCMD and Bethlem muscular dystrophy. Despite clinical and immunohistochemical features highly suggestive of COL6-RD, some patients had remained without an identified causative variant in

    Abstract In digenic inheritance, pathogenic variants in two genes must be inherited together to cause disease. Only very few examples of digenic inheritance have been described in the neuromuscular disease field. Here we show that predicted deleterious variants in SRPK3, encoding the X-linked serine/argenine protein kinase 3, lead to a progressive early onset skeletal muscle myopathy only when in combination with heterozygous variants in the TTN gene. The co-occurrence of predicted deleterious SRPK3/TTN variants was not seen among 76,702 healthy male individuals, and statistical modeling strongly supported digenic inheritance as the best-fitting model. Furthermore, double-mutant zebrafish (srpk3

    Abstract Objective: To document the occurrence and recovery outcomes of sports-related concussions (SRCs) presenting to the Emergency Department (ED) in a community-based sample.
    Design: A prospective observational cohort study was conducted in 3 Canadian hospitals.
    Setting: Emergency Department.
    Patients: Adults (≥17 years) presenting with a concussion to participating EDs with a Glasgow Coma Scale score ≥13 were recruited.
    Interventions: Patient demographics (eg, age and sex), clinical characteristics (eg, history of depression or anxiety), injury characteristics (eg, injury mechanisms and loss of consciousness and duration), and ED management and outcomes (eg, imaging, consultations, and ED length of stay) were collected.
    Main outcome measures: Patients' self-reported persistent concussion symptoms, return to physical activity status, and health-related quality of life at 30 and 90 days after ED discharge.
    Results: Overall, 248 patients were enrolled, and 25% had a SRC. Patients with SRCs were younger and reported more physical activity before the event. Although most of the patients with SRCs returned to their normal physical activities at 30 days, postconcussive symptoms persisted in 40% at 90 days of follow-up. After adjustment, there was no significant association between SRCs and persistent symptoms; however, patients with concussion from motor vehicle collisions were more likely to have persistent symptoms.
    Conclusion: Although physically active individuals may recover faster after a concussion, patients returning to their physical activities before full resolution of symptoms are at higher risk of persistent symptoms and further injury. Patient-clinician communications and tailored recommendations should be encouraged to guide appropriate acute management of concussions.

    Abstract Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases are an expanding global threat to public health, security, and economies. Increasing populations, urbanization, deforestation, climate change, anti-vaccination movements, war, and international travel are some of the contributing factors to this trend. The recent Ebola, MERS-CoV, and Zika outbreaks demonstrated we are insufficiently prepared to respond with proven safe and effective countermeasures (i.e., vaccines and therapeutics). The State University of New York Upstate Medical University and the Trudeau Institute convened a summit of key opinion and thought leaders in the life sciences and biomedical research and development enterprises to explore global biopreparedness challenges, take an inventory of existing capabilities and capacities related to preparation and response, assess current "gaps," and prospect what could be done to improve our position. Herein we describe the summit proceedings, "Translational Immunology Supporting Biomedical Countermeasure Development for Emerging Vector-borne Viral Diseases," held October 2-3, 2018, at the Trudeau Institute in Saranac Lake, NY.

    Abstract Purpose: To analyze the leadership network structure among nursing leaders in Spain identified through the Grupo40Enfermeras y Universidad event.
    Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study using social network analysis was used. Study sample consisted of 210 individuals, of whom 119 received nominations as referents. Structural analysis of the network was conducted using centrality and cohesion.
    Results: A network structure was generated in which different leadership strategies were identified through InDegree, Eigenvector, and Betweenness Centrality. Five leaders were identified as bridges to other individuals using Betweenness. The whole network presented little cohesion although two highly cohesive cores were detected by K-core measurements.
    Conclusion: A strategy is needed to support nursing leaders with high degree of Betweenness to serve as bridges to connect other nursing leaders.
