As generalists, emergency practitioners face challenges in providing state-of-the-art care owing to the broad spectrum of practice and the rapid rate of new knowledge generation. Networks have become increasingly prevalent in health care, and it was in this backdrop, and the resulting opportunity to advance evidence-informed emergency care in the Canadian province of British Columbia (BC), that a new "Emergency Medicine Network" (EM Network) was launched in 2017. The EM Network consists of four programs, each led by a physician with expertise and a track record in the domain: (1) Clinical Resources; (2) Innovation; (3) Continuing Professional Development; and (4) Real-time Support. This paper provides an overview of the EM Network, including its background, purpose, programs, anticipated evolution, and impact on the BC health care system.

For thousands of years, parasitic infections have represented a constant challenge to human health. Despite constant progress in science and medicine, the challenge has remained mostly unchanged over the years, partly due to the vast complexity of the host-parasite-environment relationships. Over the last century, our approaches to these challenges have evolved through considerable advances in science and technology, offering new and better solutions.

Innovative qualitative approaches are essential for exploring how health professions education (HPE) can address complex, value-laden constructs such as social accountability. Visual elicitation techniques, including rich picture interviews (RPIs), offer distinctive opportunities to surface layered, affective, and contextually embedded understandings. This methodological study examines participant perspectives on the use of RPIs within a broader qualitative interpretive description on social accountability.

ConspectusHydroaminoalkylation, the catalytic addition of amines to alkenes, has evolved as a powerful tool in modern synthetic chemistry, offering an atom-economic and green approach to the construction of C-C bonds. This reaction enables the direct amine functionalization of alkenes and alkynes without the need for protecting groups, directing groups, or prefunctionalization, thereby eliminating stoichiometric waste and minimizing synthetic steps. Over the past two decades, significant advances in catalyst development and mechanistic understanding have expanded the scope of hydroaminoalkylation, allowing for control over regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity.

Over the past decade, the discovery of immunotherapy and targeted therapy has set new standards for the management of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study aims to investigate the prevalence of , , , , , , and mutations in patients with NSCLC within the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region and to assess the current state of molecular testing and targeted treatments in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. The systematic literature review was performed using PubMed, Google Scholar, and Google searches to identify studies on the prevalence of , , , , , , and mutations in patients with NSCLC in the MENA region.
