Machine Learning assisted systematic reviewing in orthopaedics
Background
Machine learning assisted systematic reviewing may help to reduce the work burden in systematic reviews. The aim of this study was to determine, through a non-developer, the performance of machine learning assisted systematic reviewing on previously published orthopaedic reviews in retrieving relevant papers.

Coronary age as a risk factor in the modified Framingham risk score
Summary
The article "Coronary age as a risk factor in the modified Framingham risk score" by Enrique F. Schisterman and Brian W. Whitcomb discusses an improved method for predicting coronary heart disease (CHD) risk by integrating coronary artery calcium (CAC) scores into the traditional Framingham Risk Assessment (FRA). The traditional FR...

Assessment of reproducibility of cancer survival risk predictions across medical centers
Background
Two key considerations in evaluating survival prediction models are predictability (the ability to accurately predict survival risks) and reproducibility (the ability to generalize predictions across studies or centers). This study explores approaches to assessing the reproducibility of survival risk predictions across medical...

Medical error disclosure: from the therapeutic alliance to risk management: the vision of the new Italian code of medical ethics
Background
The Italian code of medical deontology stipulates that physicians must inform patients of each unwanted event and its causes, identifying, reporting, and evaluating adverse events and errors. This duty extends beyond the doctor-patient relationship and is central to improving professional service quality and clinical risk mana...

Attributable risk from distributed lag models
Background
Measures of attributable risk are critical in epidemiology, particularly for planning and evaluating public health interventions. Current definitions, however, often overlook temporal relationships between exposure and risk. This study proposes extended definitions of attributable risk within the framework of distributed l...

Remediation of at-risk medical students: theory in action
Background
Previous work has shown that a programme drawing on a blend of theories improves outcomes for students who fail and repeat their first semester at medical school. Remediation of struggling students is achieved through a cognitive apprenticeship within a small community of inquiry. This requires expert teachers who perform ...
