Jinma Ren; Jia Ma; Joseph C. Cappelleri – Research Synthesis Methods, 2024
A random-effects model is often applied in meta-analysis when considerable heterogeneity among studies is observed due to the differences in patient characteristics, timeframe, treatment regimens, and other study characteristics. Since 2014, the journals "Research Synthesis Methods" and the "Annals of Internal Medicine" have…

Publication selection bias undermines the systematic accumulation of evidence. To assess the extent of this problem, we survey over 68,000 meta-analyses containing over 700,000 effect size estimates from medicine (67,386/597,699), environmental sciences (199/12,707), psychology (605/23,563), and economics (327/91,421). Our results indicate that…

Pamela Liebig; Viviane Filor; Mariana Scheumann; Martina Buchholz; Klaus Jung – Technology, Knowledge and Learning, 2024
Many academic teachers present data as static graphics in their lectures and courses. However, data structures have become more complex in the last decades, especially in the biomedical disciplines, and interactive graphics can provide a better means to communicate the scientific contents to students. Besides, the technological qualifications of…

Kunle Timothy Apanisile – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Immunosuppressive therapy is vital for the success of a kidney transplant, yet it entails potential risks and side effects. The challenge lies in finding the right balance between suppressing the immune response enough to prevent rejection while minimizing the risk of infections, organ toxicity, and other complications associated with long-term…

Elsa Raynal; Kate Schipper; Catherine Brandner; Paolo Ruggeri; Jérôme Barral – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Associative learning abilities vary considerably among individuals, with attentional processes suggested to play a role in these variations. However, the relationship between attentional processes and individual differences in associative learning remains unclear, and whether these variations reflect in event-related potentials (ERPs) is unknown.…

Kip; Topping, Daniel B.; Wainman, Bruce; Wineski, Lawrence E.; Zumwalt, Ann C.; Hankin, Mark H. – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2023
Clerkships are defining experiences for medical students in which students integrate basic science knowledge with clinical information as they gain experience in diagnosing and treating patients in a variety of clinical settings. Among the basic sciences, there is broad agreement that anatomy is foundational for medical practice. Unfortunately,…

Neel, Matthew S. – Physics Education, 2022
We follow a radioactive sample from production in a reactor to its use in a biological application to model the complexities in the use of radioactive isotopes from a student's perspective. Specifically, we describe a way to use gamma ray detection outside the body to estimate the clearance rate of these radioisotopes from the body and how that…

Chuan-Hang Yu; Toshihide Sato – Anatomical Sciences Education, 2025
This study investigates the intriguing choice of frontispiece design in Kaitai Shinsho (1774), the first systematic Japanese translation of a Western anatomical text. While the main content of Kaitai Shinsho was translated from Johann Adam Kulmus's "Ontleedkundige Tafelen" (1734), its frontispiece notably deviates from Kulmus's original…
