Article Abstract
This study examined the relationship between social functioning and emergent academic development in a sample of 467 preschool children (M = 55.9 months old, SD = 3.8). Teachers reported on children's aggression, attention problems, and prosocial skills. Preliteracy, language, and early mathematics skills were assessed with standardized tests. Better social functioning was associated with stronger academic development. Attention problems were related to poorer academic development controlling for aggression and social skills, pointing to the importance of attention in these relations. Children's social skills were related to academic development controlling for attention and aggression problems, consistent with models suggesting that children's social strengths and difficulties are independently related to their academic development. Support was not found for the hypothesis that these relationships would be stronger in boys than in girls. Some relationships were stronger in African American than Caucasian children. Children's self-reported feelings about school moderated several relationships, consistent with the idea that positive feelings about school may be a protective factor against co-occurring academic and social problems.

Predicting left-without-being-seen in an emergency department as a dynamic risk.
Am J Emerg Med

University of Toronto, Rotman School of Management, Canada.
Study Objective: Accurately predicting which Emergency Department (ED) patients are at high risk of leaving without being seen (LWBS) could enable targeted interventions aimed at reducing LWBS rates. Machine Learning (ML) models that dynamically update these risk predictions as patients experience more time waiting were developed and validated, in order to improve the prediction accuracy and correctly identify more patients who LWBS.
Methods: The study was deemed quality improvement by the institutional review board, and collected all patient visits to the ED of a large academic medical campus over 24 months.

Background: With the development of technology, easier access to the internet and its excessive use have led to problematic internet use (PIU). The prevalence of PIU and its association with lifestyle behaviors in adolescents have become subjects of increasing academic interest. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of PIU among Turkish high school students and to investigate its association with sleep, physical activity and dietary habits.

This descriptive cross-sectional study examined research ethics and integrity at a public university in Bolivia. We surveyed university professors, directors, and deans and analyzed secondary data from graduate student research manuscripts. The results showed gaps in the university professors' understanding and implementation of research ethics and integrity in their work.

Background: Acute viral respiratory infections (AVRIs) rank among the most common causes of hospitalisation worldwide, imposing significant healthcare burdens and driving the development of pharmacological treatments. However, inconsistent outcome reporting across clinical trials limits evidence synthesis and its translation into clinical practice. A core outcome set (COS) for pharmacological treatments in hospitalised adults with AVRIs is essential to standardise trial outcomes and improve research comparability.

Background: Interprofessional Education (IPE) is widely recognized as essential for fostering collaborative healthcare practices and improving patient outcomes. Despite its acknowledged importance, there remains a notable scarcity of longitudinal research assessing medical students' readiness for IPE across distinct educational stages, particularly within diverse global contexts like Brazil.
Aim: This study sought to address this gap by longitudinally mapping and analyzing the evolution of medical students' readiness for interprofessional learning throughout their academic training at a Brazilian university.
