Continuity of care (CoC) is integral to the practice of comprehensive primary care, yet research in the area of CoC training in residency programs is limited. In light of distributed medical education and evolving accreditation standards, arigorous understanding of the context and enablers contributing to CoC education must be considered in the design and delivery of residency training programs. At our preceptor-based community academic site, we developed asystem-resident-preceptor (SRP) framework to explore factors that influence aresident's perception regarding CoC, and established variables in each area to enhance learning. We then implemented atwo-year educational SRP intervention (SRPI) to one cohort of residents and their preceptors to integrate critical education factors and align teaching of continuity of care within curricular goals. Evaluation of the intervention was based on resident interviews and faculty focus groups, and aqualitative phenomenological approach was used to analyze the data. While some factors identified are inherent to family medicine, the opportunity for reflection is aunique component to inculcate CoC learning. The SRP innovation provides aunique framework to facilitate residents' understanding and development of CoC competency. Our model can be applied to all residency programs, including traditional academic sites as well as distributed training sites, to enhance CoC education.

Preformed metal crowns are widely used to restore primary and permanent teeth. Children may require magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for diagnosis and monitoring of diseases in the head and neck region. Metallic objects, in the field of view, may compromise the diagnostic value of an MRI. The impact on the diagnostic quality of an MRI in children who have had preformed metal crowns placed has not been assessed. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate the impact that PFMCs have on MRI imaging quality and thus the overall diagnostic value. Electronic searches of the following databases were completed MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and Open Grey. Primary in vivo studies on children who had at least one preformed metal crown placed and required an MRI investigation were to be included. PRISMA guidelines were followed and screening/data extraction was carried out by two independent calibrated reviewers. A total of 7665 articles were identified. After removing duplicates, 7062 were identified for title and abstract screening. read more Thirty-four articles underwent full-text review, of which none met the inclusion criteria. Most common reasons for exclusion were not placing preformed metal crowns (n = 16) or in vitro studies (n = 12). No in vivo studies were identified to establish the hypothetical impact preformed metal crowns would have on the diagnostic quality of an MRI in the head and neck region. Decision making needs to be guided on a case by case basis. Further high-quality clinical studies are required.

Using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction in this study, we detected A1BG-AS1 expression in breast cancer and elucidated the regulatory functions and exact mechanisms of A1BG-AS1 in breast can
