Abstract Objectives Reciprocating endodontic one-file systems are a comparatively new method for root canal shaping. Even though the mechanical properties are comparable to modern rotating mechanical systems, data about subjective assessment and application quality are scarce. This study evaluates the reciprocating one-file system in undergraduate education. Materials and Methods A total of 42 undergraduate students without experience regarding reciprocating file systems filled in a questionnaire in four different points in time (t 1–t 4) anonymously. The questionnaire was based on a numerical rating scale ranging from 0 to 10. Statistical Analysis A least significant difference post-hoc analysis comparing the group average values was performed. The adjusted level of significance was p < 0.004 after Bonferroni correction. Results All rating scores increased after the first theoretical instruction. After the first practical training in artificial root canals in resin blocks and extracted teeth (t 2), the estimation of “time efficiency” (p = 0.002), “handling” (p < 0.001), and “overall impression” (p < 0.001) improved significantly. The “overall impression” remained constant and showed no significant changes after the first practical training. Conclusions Reciprocating systems seem to show a good acceptance among first time users. Initial concerns about “work safety” decrease during every step of the educational process. Reciprocating one-file systems are a safe and well-accepted method in undergraduate teaching.

Drug-drug interaction (DDI) is a specific type of adverse event, which developsdue to multiple regimen therapy, and that may lead to significant hospitalization and death.Clinical and economic impact of drug interactions are increasingly accredited as a chiefconcern in critical care. Potentiating effects of DDIs in intensive care units are far more criticaldue to complex medications regimen, high risk severely ill population and associated metabolicand physiological disturbances which can impede drug effects. Pharmacist contribution isclassified as clarification of drug order, appropriate drug information provision, and advice forsubstitute treatment. A multidisciplinary approach is very necessary in developing a pharmacotherapeuticregimen designed to optimize patient outcome and minimize any potential dugdrug interactions. This review encompasses the prevalence, categorization, significance interm of patient safety and prescription efficacy, clinical and economic burdens, national andinternational data comparisons related to drug-drug interactions.

Background: The medical undergraduate curriculum includes training in prescription writing from second year under Pharmacology. This study assesses the prescription writing skills of second year MBBS students in Sree Mookambika institute of medical sciences. The study can promote awareness among the medical students about the rational application of drug prescribing skills.Methods: After ethical clearance from the Institutional research committee, the cross-sectional study was conducted among 115, second year MBBS students who were above 18 years of age. Parameters like patient and doctor information, drug information and legibility of the prescription was assessed.Results: Of the 115 students who participated in the study, only 86 (74.7%) students got a score 4/4 for patient-related information and no student got 5/5 with respect to doctor related information. 98 students (85.2%) got 6/6 with regards to drug information. The most lacking information was the qualification of the doctor, followed by the total quantity of the drug prescribed. The legibility of the prescriptions was also not up to the mark with only 22 students (19.1%) who got a 4/4.Conclusions: The prescription writing skills among second year undergraduate students are suboptimal. Periodic assessment of the students must be done to evaluate their knowledge on prescription writing and the training clinicians must help to fill the knowledge-practice gap. WHO recommended six step prescription writing model must be followed and emphasized among students.

For many years, the former Vegetable Crops Department, now the Horticultural Sciences Department, at the University of Florida offered a vegetable crop industries course. This one-credit course is offered each year as a 3- to 5-day field trip into vegetable production areas of Florida in the spring semester during spring break. The intent of the course is to give undergraduate students an extensive on-site evaluation of the application of scientific principles learned in lectures related to Florida's commercial vegetable industry. A new, innovative approach to structuring this course was initiated recently wherein only alumni of the department interacted with the students on all phases of commercial vegetable agriculture in Florida. These alumni had obtained degrees at the BS, MS, or PhD level and represented many professional backgrounds related to producing, handling, and marketing vegetables. Students were exposed to real-life situations and were encouraged to discuss and seek employment opportunities during the farm visitations. Student expenses were offset by donations from the Florida vegetable industry.

In order to strengthen the humanistic literacy of nursing undergraduate students, a course of “comprehensive training of nursing humanities” was set up in Grade 2018, and the teaching team was composed of professional teachers and clinical nursing staff, and 16 sessions of practical training content was designed. The content design is based on psychology, ethics, pedagogy and other disciplines, including artificial intelligence nursing, nursing ethics principles, empathy, positive attention, verbal communication, non-verbal communication, self-care, teamwork 8 practical training content. The implementation process of practical training adopts small class, 30 students per class. Experiential teaching design runs through the whole process, using group discussion, scene simulation, extended training and other teaching means. The teaching effect evaluation feedback is very good. The students reflect they love this course.

The tutorial is devoted to solving problems of hydrodynamics of multiphase flows based on numerical simulation using ANSYS Workbench software based on ANSYS CFX analysis system. The basic concepts of numerical modeling, methodology of numerical calculations, models of multiphase flows are considered. Examples of solving problems of hydrodynamics and separation of particles in the channels and apparatus of protection of the atmosphere and hydrosphere are given. Meets the requirements of the Federal state educational standard of higher education of the last generation and programs of lectures and practical training on computer modeling of hydrodynamic and separation processes included in the preparation of masters in the direction of "Technosphere safety". For undergraduate students studying in the direction of "Technosphere safety". It can be useful for students of other areas and specialties, graduate students, as well as all those who are interested in computer modeling of hydraulic and separation processes.

A survey of college student interests in drug information was conducted in 1977 with eighty-six undergraduate students at the SUNY campus at Brockport, New York. A questionnaire was constructed which specifically allowed students to write out questions they felt college students had about seven categories of drugs, including: herbal drugs, over-the-counter drugs, prescription drugs, unrecognized drugs, tobacco, alcohol and illicit drugs. The current paper summarizes data on type and frequency of questions asked, as well as the relationship between the drug categories used.
