Beyond skills: The impact of personality traits, empathy and stress mindset on OSCE outcomes

Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) are widely used to assess medical students clinical skills, including non-technical abilities such as communication and empathy. However, the potential influence of individual psychological traits--such as personality dimensions, empathy, and stress-related mindset--on OSCE performance remains understudied. This study investigated associations between personality traits, empathy levels, stress mindsets, and performance in OSCEs among medical students. An online questionnaire (including the Big Five Personality Traits Inventory 2, the Jefferson Scale of Physician Empathy (Medical Student version), the Growth Mindset Scale, the Stress Mindset Measure) was provided to all fifth-year medical students enrolled at the Universite Paris Cite for six weeks before undertaking graduation summative OSCEs. Their scores were correlated with OSCE performance using Spearmans correlation and linear regression analyses. A total of 99 questionnaires were

Predictors of Physician Awareness of the Periodontal Disease-Diabetes Association: A Cross-Sectional Study in Ghana

BackgroundPeriodontal disease (PD) and diabetes mellitus (DM) have a well-established bidirectional relationship, affecting glycaemic control and chronic disease outcomes. However, the extent to which medical training supports physician awareness of this association remains unclear especially in resource-limited settings. ObjectiveTo assess exposure to oral health education and to identify predictors of awareness of PD-DM association among physicians. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted among 146 physicians managing diabetic patients at a tertiary teaching hospital in Ghana. A structured questionnaire assessed exposure to oral health education, periodontal disease knowledge (score range 0-5), and awareness using a 5-item Likert scale (score range 5-25). Multivariable linear regression identified predictors of awareness. ResultsAlthough 62.1% reported exposure to oral health content during undergraduate training, 59.2% rated its quality as poor. Mean awareness score was 20.6 (S

Moving Beyond Duty Hours: Understanding the Contributors to Internal Medicine Resident Workload and Experience

BackgroundHigh workload among healthcare workers has increasingly been correlated with poor patient outcomes, inefficient operational and financial outcomes, and burnout. Despite growing literature exploring causes of attending physician workload, there is limited understanding of trainee-specific measures. ObjectiveWe aimed to characterize elements contributing to trainee workload and perceived challenges and satisfiers to the trainee workday as a foundation for better understanding and measuring trainee work experience. MethodsInternal Medicine and Medicine-Pediatrics residents at an academic medical center were invited to participate in focus groups discussing contributors to inpatient workload and work experience between March and April 2024. A qualitative content analysis identified key metrics of trainee workload and work experience, which were then consolidated into overarching domains. A structured, multi-round rating process ranked the perceived relevance of each metric. Resul

Large language model scoring of medical student reflection essays: Accuracy and reproducibility of prompt-model variations

IntroductionEvaluate large language models (LLMs) for scoring medical student essays, and compare various prompting techniques and models. MethodsOpenAI GPT scored 51 medical student reflection essays (15 real, 36 fabricated) using a previously-reported 6-point rubric (April-May 2025). We compared 29 prompt-model conditions by systematically varying the LLM prompts (including the persona, scoring rubric, few-shot learning [exemplars], chain-of-thought reasoning, and temperature), fine-tuning, and model (including GPT-4.1, GPT-4.1-mini, GPT-o4-mini, and GPT-4-Turbo). Outcomes were accuracy (compared with human raters, measured using single-score intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] and mean absolute difference [MAD; zero indicates perfect agreement]), within-condition reproducibility, and cost. ResultsAcross all conditions, it took mean (SD) 3.73 (3.12) seconds to score 1 essay. The cost to score 100 essays was USD $0.04 for GPT-4.1-mini, $0.21 for GPT-4.1, $0.57 for GPT-4.1 with 3

PRIME-CVD: A Parametrically Rendered Informatics Medical Environment for Education in Cardiovascular Risk Modelling

In recent years, progress in medical informatics and machine learning has been accelerated by the availability of openly accessible benchmark datasets. However, patient-level electronic medical record (EMR) data are rarely available for teaching or methodological development due to privacy, governance, and re-identification risks. This has limited reproducibility, transparency, and hands-on training in cardiovascular risk modelling. Here we introduce PRIME-CVD, a parametrically rendered informatics medical environment designed explicitly for medical education. PRIME-CVD comprises two openly accessible synthetic data assets representing a cohort of 50,000 adults undergoing primary prevention for cardiovascular disease. The datasets are generated entirely from a user-specified causal directed acyclic graph parameterised using publicly available Australian population statistics and published epidemiologic effect estimates, rather than from patient-level EMR data or trained generative mode

Announcement from the Mod team of r/nursing regarding the murder of Alex Pretti, and where we go from here.

Good evening, r/nursing . We know this is a challenging time for all due to the outrageous events that occurred on a Minnesota street yesterday. As your modteam, we would like to take a moment to address some questions we've gotten regarding our moderator actions in the last 48 hours and to make our position on the death of Alex Pretti, and our future moderation actions regarding this topic, completely clear. Six years ago at the beginning of the pandemic, we witnessed an incredible swell of activity from users not typically seen as participants within our community. Misinformation was plentiful and rife. As many of you recall, accusations of nurses harming or outright killing patients to create a 'plandemic' were unfortunately a dime a dozen. We were inundated with vaccine deniers, mask haters, and social distancing detractors. For every voice of reason from a flaired and long-standing contributor in our forum, there was at least one outside interloper here simply to argue. At that ju

It’s obvious that the flash cards must be AI generated because of the poor grammar and stupid spelling mistakes. If you’re going to use AI to generate flash cards do everyone the courtesy of proofreading them before you publish them. It saves us wasted time trying to decipher what you mean and we can focus on the reason you provided them exam preparation.

[2/5] Needs bugs fixed.

Generally, this app does the job. But the bugs are very annoying. For example, I finished module six in my class and this prerequisite opened up module seven on my iPad. But on my iPhone, module seven is still locked up. The PDF viewer on the app does not allow zooming in and so does not work very well on iPhones because the text is too small. Finally, logging into this program is very annoying, because NNU has so many different sites to login. Is it canvas? Is it instructure? Is it NNU?

[3/5] To-Do lists and widgets are pointless

The amount of times the widget only shows me assignments that are no longer able to be accessed is insane. And when I physically go in to mark those assignments done, it doesn’t show me what’s coming up next. It only shows assignments that are past due. And half the time, it won’t let you mark assignments as completed.
