Article Abstract
Access to language services is a required and foundational component of care for patients with limited English proficiency (LEP). National standards for medical interpreting set by the US Department of Health and Human Services and by the National Council on Interpreting in Health Care establish the role of qualified medical interpreters in the provision of care in the United States. In the vignette, the attending physician infringes upon the patient's right to appropriate language services and renders unethical care. Clinicians are obliged to create systems and a culture that ensure quality care for patients with LEP.

Department of Ophthalmology & Visual Sciences, University of Michigan Medical School, 1000 Wall Street, Ann Arbor, MI, 48105, USA.
Purpose: Michigan Screening and Intervention for Glaucoma and Eye Health through Telemedicine Program (MI-SIGHT) was developed to facilitate access to glaucoma and eye disease screening and improve attendance at recommended follow-up in underserved communities. MI-SIGHT offered free eye disease screenings, low-cost glasses and for those who screened positive for glaucoma, personalized education, and language-concordant coaching grounded in motivational interviewing. The primary aims of this study were 1) To explore barriers to eye care among Latine participants with limited English proficiency (LEP) who screened positive for glaucoma, 2) to understand whether and how the MI-SIGHT program facilitated access to care and 3) to understand participant experience in MI-SIGHT to inform the development of future interventions.

Background: Depression is a highly prevalent mental disorder worldwide and is often accompanied by various somatic symptoms. Clinical studies have suggested a close association between depression and cardiac electrophysiological instability, particularly sudden cardiac death (SCD) and arrhythmias. Therefore, this review systematically evaluated the association between depression and the risks of SCD, atrial fibrillation (AF), and ventricular arrhythmias.

Background: Prescribing is a high-stakes clinical task where newly qualified doctors frequently report low confidence, with national data highlighting persistent error rates. Medical schools face logistical and staffing barriers in delivering high-quality, simulation-based prescribing education. Peer-led, interprofessional teaching, particularly by pharmacists, may offer a scalable solution in this context.
