Perceived consequences of Entrustable Professional Activities implementation on the clinical skills development of Family Medicine registrars: Observations and reflections

Christiaan Visser, John Musonda, Daniël Joubert, Magdelena Petkova, Deidre Pretorius

Family medicine training in South Africa has shifted from traditional assessments to competency-based methods, including Entrustable Professional Activities (EPAs). Entrustable Professional Activities emphasise what learners can do rather than what they know, aligning with modern, more pragmatic pedagogical theories of praxis. At the University of the Witwatersrand’s Division of Family Medicine, implementation of EPAs has coincided with some potentially unintended consequences. Registrars performed poorly on Focuse …

The Superdark Factory: Toward the Full Automation of Software

Marek Poliks

Imagine the most extreme possible factory: a factory that drives itself, a factory that determines its own objectives and optimizes itself to accomplish them. It is something like a fully automated firm, a company with no people inside, a recursively self-optimizing body that decides what to make, how to make it, and why. This is a very special kind of factory, a factory built with the intention of producing something strictly in excess of its creator s abilities, something so productive, so efficient, and so capab …

Work–family conflict and burnout in night-shift nurses with children: the mediating roles of recovery experience and fatigue

Ting Dong, Guangke Wang, Lingcao Ma, Shuying Chang, Xiaolin Song, Hanqing Dai, Kunhua Hou

Background Burnout among nurses is a major global concern, particularly among those working night shifts, which can compromise the quality of nursing care, increase turnover intentions, and threaten the stability of the nursing workforce. Previous studies have shown that work–family conflict correlates positively with burnout in nurses, but not enough research has been performed on its relationship among night-shift nurses with children. In addition, the mechanism of this relationship is not completely clear. Objec …

Clinical employment and nursing students’ attitudes towards a humanoid social robot in geriatric care: implications for the public health workforce

Klaudia Osypka, Malgorzata Dziechciaz, Aleksandra Suwalska, Katarzyna Wieczorowska-Tobis, Slawomir Tobis

Introduction Population ageing and workforce shortages are placing growing pressure on geriatric care systems, prompting interest in humanoid social robots (HSRs) as a potential support for older-adult care. Their successful introduction, however, depends substantially on acceptance by the nursing workforce that will deliver and oversee their use. Nursing students represent a strategically important population for public health workforce planning, since their openness to robotic technologies will shape how readily …

Associations of leisure time and occupational physical activity with tobacco smoking and dual use of e-cigarettes among adults – a representative cross-sectional survey in Germany

Zeynep Acar, Anne Starker, Kristin Manz, Stephanie Klosterhalfen, Daniel Kotz

Abstract Background Physical inactivity and tobacco smoking are risk factors for chronic diseases, and the combination of both further increase health risks. While leisure time physical activity (LTPA) improves cardiovascular health and is associated with lower smoking prevalence, occupational physical activity (OPA) may have adverse health effects and is associated with higher smoking prevalence. To date, there is limited evidence on the associations between LTPA, OPA and smoking behaviour – more specifically the …

Understanding Health Inequalities Through a Biopsychosocial Perspective: The Role of Social Determinants

Chao Zhang

Health disparities constitute a long-standing public health crisis, reflecting consistent gaps in physical and mental outcomes between groups with unequal socioeconomic status. While biological predispositions and personal lifestyle choices partially account for divergence, such individual-level factors are largely conditioned by broader social environments and structural barriers. Drawing on the biopsychosocial model, this paper investigates the formation of ubiquitous inequalities driven by key social determinant …

Abstract Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by recurrent episodes of swelling, which can potentially be life-threatening, resulting in substantial physical, psychological, educational and occupational burden. Treatment of HAE is divided into on-demand treatment for acute attacks and long-term prophylaxis for prevention of attacks, and there are now several effective therapies available. However, in the UK, use of on-demand therapy is intended for attacks defined as clinically signi …
