Does STEM Success Start Young? Exploring Higher Ed Students’ Early Academic Experiences in Science and Math at Scale
Authors: Bradford Brittany Caitlin
Published: May 2023

The United States is experiencing a shortage of STEM workers [24], with many students leaving the pipeline before attaining a career in STEM [18]. STEM education researchers have identified factors at the high school and college level that contribute to attrition, but earlier life events remain underexplored [14]. In this work-in-progress paper, we examine childhood experiences through the lens of qualitative analyses and discuss our ongoing development of an overall understanding of the relevant life and academic “themes” that shape students’ lives before entering secondary school. We are currently testing our seven-theme model on the OpenStax Kinetic large-scale research infrastructure using quantitative surveys of participants’ biographical data. Our findings from this study will inform future refinement of the survey and its themes, with a particular emphasis on understanding the influence of contextual demographic and psychosocial factors. Over the longer-term, we hope to support research that identifies critical early STEM experiences and offers insight into where certain students might benefit the most from additional STEM support or experiences.
Unlocking Financial Success: Empowering Higher Ed Students and Developing Financial Literacy Interventions at Scale
Authors: Bradford Brittany Caitlin , Basu Mallick Debshila , Baraniuk Richard
Published: May 2023

Greater financial literacy is critically needed among young adults in the United States [10,35], but many financial literacy education courses have been less effective than hoped for by educators and researchers [7,15]. Additionally, many have not been designed around established curricula or learning science principles, rendering findings difficult for researchers to study empirically [6,34]. In order to better understand the psychosocial mechanisms that predict success in improving learner knowledge and behavior, online educational interventions at scale can be an effective path forward. We conducted interviews with subject matter experts and young adult students to explore the highest priority learning objectives for a brief course curriculum to improve the financial literacy of US young adults. We then leveraged our findings from this study and content from our open-source textbooks to develop the first of several brief online learning interventions for deployment on the large-scale OpenStax Kinetic research infrastructure [2]. In this work-in-progress paper, we discuss the next steps in our research agenda, including course content development and deploying this intervention, as well as our broader plans for our future financial literacy education interventions and translating research into practice with our institutional collaborations.

Authors: B Patil Vinay , V Patil Chaitanya , B Itagi Pramod , Kulkarni Vikrant
Published: May 2023

Background Calcaneal fractures account for approximately 2% of all fractures, with displaced intra-articular fractures comprising 60% to 75% of these injuries1. Studies in fracture patterns, soft-tissue management, and outcomes of calcaneal fractures have led to the debate on the optimal management of calcaneal fractures. Several Prospective randomized studies have shown equivocal outcomes with operative and nonoperative treatment. However, recent trends in the literature suggest that restoration of physiologic parameters of length, height, and alignment of the calcaneus may lead to better long-term results. Initial studies using extensile approaches showed higher rates of wound complications with operative treatment; however, recent studies have shown lower complication rates with sinus tarsi and other minimally invasive techniques. Regardless of the mode of treatment, calcaneal fractures are associated with numerous complications and guarded outcomes with signicant longterm morbidity. Objectives 1. To comparatively study the functional outcome of calcaneum fracture when treated conservatively with that of operative management 2. To study complication when treated conservatively with that of operative management METHODS Study was conducted in Department of Orthopedics, Basaveshwara Teaching and General Hospital, Kalaburagi.30 patients with 30 calcaneum fracture were included in the study. Outcome of conservative and operative management was compared using Creighton Nebrasaka health foundation scoring system. Pre treatment and post treatment (at follow up) Bohler's angle was also compared. Chisquare analysis and paired t test was done to compare the results of conservative and operative management. Restoration of the RESULTS Bohler's angle was better with operative management as compared to conservative management. Functional outcome for type I fractures was better with conservative management. For type II and type III functional outcome was relatively better with operative management for type IV fractures the outcome was signicantly better with operative management. A signicant correlation was seen between the post treatment Bohler's angle and C-N scores. Interpretation & Conclusion Conservative management has better functional outcome for undisplaced fractures. Where as displaced and comminuted fractures anatomical reduction and restoration of Bohler's angle is very important. Bohler's angle has a prognostic importance and correlates well with the functional outcome

Published: May 2023

Background: Lumber prolapsed intervertebral disc induce radiating pain in lower limbs, for which epidural steroid injection is one of the safe and effective therapeutic option. This prospective study compares the results of 2 different techniques of transforaminal epidural steroid injection (TFESI) and subpedicular steroid injection in patients with prolapsed intervertebral disc (PIVD) in relieving lumbar radicular pain. Methods: Records of 80 patients who had undergone transforaminal and subpedicular epidural steroid injection for lumbar radicular pain were analyzed. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score were measured at before procedure and at 4th day post procedure and 2, 4, 6 and 24 weeks thereafter and straight leg raise test (SLRT) were measured before procedure, 4th day and 4 week post procedure. Results:At 24 weeks, the VAS was signicantly lower than the baseline in both groups; VAS in the TFESI group was signicantly lower than VAS in the subpedicular group at 6 and 24 weeks. SLRT score was signicantly higher in the TFESI group and subpedicular ESI group through the 4-week time point (P= 0.0021 at 4th day; P= 0.0001 at 4 weeks). At the end of 24 weeks, a signicantly greater number of patients in the TFESI group and subpedicular ESI showed difference In VAS (P = 0.0003). Conclusions: At the end of 24 weeks, TFESI appears to be a superior technique in relieving lumbar radicular pain in PIVD patients and could be an alternative to the subpedicular approach in severe spinal canal stenosis when it is hard to place the needle in the anterior epidural space through the safe triangle.

Introduction: Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) is a modern approach to medical education that is being adopted in medical colleges throughout India. The emphasis on outcome-based teaching, learning, and evaluation techniques has brought about a substantial change in the role of the teacher. In the framework of CBME, faculty development is crucial. The new CBME's implementation will be successful if faculty perceptions are factored into the equation, and problems are addressed. Aim & objectives: To assess the perceptions of the Community Medicine faculty and the challenges they encounter in implementing Competency-Based Medical Education for undergraduate curriculum. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out among Community Medicine faculty from all medical colleges of Mumbai between September and November 2022. Faculties were interviewed in person using a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire on CBME and non-probability volunteer's opt-in sampling technique was adopted. Responses were entered and analyzed in Microsoft Excel. Results: 56 faculties responded to the questionnaire, majority have undergone at least one faculty development program mandatory for CBME implementation. The majority of the faculty accepted skill training and small group discussion as a useful approach for teaching & learning. Many supported the implementation of family adoption program. Major challenges perceived were lack of uniformity in assessment, interdepartmental cooperation, lack of resources and insufcient training to implement the CBME curriculum. Conclusion: The faculty's perception of the various CBME elements and facets varied greatly, and they were broadly supportive of CBME enforcement. Yet, there are important obstacles in the form of resources and adequate faculty training that need to be addressed by the Medical Education Unit (MEU).

Background: Reactive Hypoglycemia (post prandial hypoglycemia) refers to recurrent episodes of low blood glucose levels that occur hours after a meal – usually within 2-5 hours after eating. It is considered to be a prediabetic state. We looked at the data of 15 patients Aims and Objectives: diagnosed with reactive hypoglycemia based on the evidence of Continuous Glucose Monitoring, to determine the correlation of reactive hypoglycemia with HbA1c and Fasting Plasma Glucose. In this series we obs Results: erved a discordance between HbA1c and Fasting Plasma Glucose in patients with Reactive Hypoglycemia. In addition, there was also a subset of patients that demonstrated normal HbA1c and Fasting Plasma Glucose. As it has been observed that patients with suspecte Conclusion: d Reactive Hypoglycemia show varied discordance between HbA1c and Fasting Plasma Glucose, it is recommended to use Continuous Glucose Monitoring in the evaluation of all patients with a suspicion of Reactive Hypoglycemia

Introduction: Carcinoma of breast is the most frequent malignancy in women worldwide and the second most common cause of fatality in patient with cancer. Prognostic factors are essential in breast cancer diagnosis as they allow high risk patient identication, for whom prognosis can be further improved by an adjuvant therapy. Ki67 proliferative index is a potential marker for predicting the responsiveness to chemotherapy. This present study has been designed to analyze the relationship of Ki67 proliferative index with clinico-pathological factors in eighty diagnosed cases of primary breast carcinoma, according to the molecular subtypes. To compare the e Objective: xpression of Ki67 proliferative index with the molecular subtype, histopathological grade and type of breast carcinoma. The study w Material and Methods: as carried out from October 2019 - September 2021 in the Department of Pathology, M.K.C.G Medical College & Hospital, Odisha. 80 cases received for routine histopathological examination were evaluated for histopathological typing and IHC status – ER, PR, Her2neu & Ki67. 46 cases belonged to T2 followed by Result: T3 and T1. 45% cases were Grade III followed by Grade II and Grade I tumors. 74 cases were IDC NOS, 2 cases Lobular, 2 cases Metaplastic, 1 case Medullary and 1 case Mucinous. High Ki67 index seen in 70.37% cases in T3 category followed by T2 (45.65%) and T1(42.86%). Low Ki67 index is associated with Luminal A followed by Luminal B. High Ki67 index is seen in 83.33% of Grade III tumor but none in Grade I tumor. Whereas, high Ki67 index is found in both Her2neu enriched and Triple Negative breast carcinoma. High Ki67 proliferative index Conclusion: was associated with high grade tumor, Her2/neu enriched and Triple negative tumor. However, there was no signicant relation found in association of ER, PR, Her2/neu and Ki67 with the tumor size

Introduction: Hand fractures can be worsened by deformity caused by insufcient management, stiffness caused by excessive treatment, and both deformity and stiffness caused by inadequate treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the functional and clinical outcome of mini external xator-treated hand fractures. Fifty patients suffering from hand fractures were enrol Methodology: led in the trial. All the patients underwent a comprehensive history and clinical and radiological assessment, including demographic information such as age, gender, occupation, x-ray, etc. The functional outcome was calculated using the American society for surgery of the hand and total active exion (ASSH TAF)/Duncan's criteria and clinically evaluated. Most enrolled patients were between 35-44 years (34.0%). Results: Male predominance was seen, and RTA caused 70% of injuries. Fractures of type 2 Gustilo-Anderson were prevalent among patients, with the majority occurring in the right hand. The majority of patients had a transverse shaft x-ray [8(16.00%)], followed by a comminuted p. p. [6(12.00%)] and a comminuted mid shaft [6(12.00%)]. The most prevalent problem (44.00%) was stiffness. 46.00% had a good outcome, 34.00% had an excellent outcome, 12.00% had a fair outcome, and 8.00% had a poor outcome based on Duncan's criterion. The ndings demonstrate the efcacy of MEFs in esta Conclusion: blishing union and correct alignment of hand skeletons with minimal tissue trauma while retaining a good clinical outcome even in the most complex injuries. MEFs can be considered for all hand fractures requiring surgical treatment, especially in intra-articular and comminuted fractures.
