Dentists of tomorrow 2023: An analysis of the results of the ADEA 2023 survey of U.S. Dental School Seniors.

This study examines the journey of U.S. dental schools' predoctoral senior class of 2023, from the influences on and their motivations to pursue careers in dentistry, the aspects of their dental school experiences, plans upon graduation, and the investment in their careers. This study is an analysis of the results of the American Dental Education Association (ADEA) survey of Dental School Seniors, 2023 Graduating Class. Forty-eight percent of senior students from 65 accredited U.S. dental schools in the 2022-2023 academic year responded to the ADEA survey. Whenever feasible, the class of 2023 survey respondents' answers were compared with those of their 2018 counterparts and with the responses of 2023 predoctoral senior students of historically underrepresented race and ethnicity (HURE) groups. The analysis revealed that 47% of the 2023 respondents decided to become a dentist before going to undergraduate college, more than the proportion of their 2018 colleagues (44%). When it comes to preparedness to practice dentistry, the responses indicated a high level of readiness to go into the profession. Ninety percent of respondents agreed and strongly agreed with the preparedness to practice statements indicated in the 2023 ADEA survey. Between 2018 and 2023, the share of survey respondents who planned to join a private practice immediately after graduation increased from 48% to 53%. More than one-third (34%) of the 2023 respondents and 40% of HURE participants who planned to go into private practice immediately upon graduation intended to join a dental service organization (DSO). When accounting for inflation, the average education debt for students graduating with debt who responded to ADEA 2023 survey was 12% lower than what the 2018 respondents reported. This study finds that some preferences changed between the 2018 and 2023 cohorts, the latter being more likely to decide to go to dental school before college and join a DSO private practice upon graduation. Senior students responding to the ADEA 2023 survey stated a high level of preparedness to practice dentistry.

Determinants of primary healthcare providers' readiness for integration of ART services at departmental levels: A case study of Lira City and District, Uganda.

Decreasing or flattening funding for vertical HIV services means that new and innovative ways of providing care are necessary. This study aimed to assess the determinants of readiness for integration of Antiretroviral Therapy (ART) services at the departmental level among primary health care providers (PHCP) at selected health facilities in Lira District. A cross-sectional survey employing mixed methods approaches was conducted between January and February 2022 among 340 primary healthcare practitioners (PHCP) at selected health facilities in Lira district. An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to collect quantitative data. Quantitative data was analyzed using Stata version 15. and presented as proportions, means, percentages, frequencies, and odds ratios. Logistic regression was used to determine associations of the factors with readiness for ART integration at a 95% level of significance. Thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative data. The majority 75.2% (95% CI; 0.703-0.795) of the respondents reported being ready for the integration of ART services. PHCPs who were aware of the integration of services and those who had worked in the same facility for at least 6 years had higher odds of readiness for integration of ART, compared with their counterparts [aOR = 7.36; 95% CI = 3.857-14.028, p-value <0.001] for knowledge and duration at the current facility [aOR = 2.92; 95% CI = 1.293-6.599, p-value < 0.05] respectively. From the qualitative data, the dominant view was that integration is a good thing that should be implemented immediately. However, several challenges were noted, key among which include limited staffing and drug supplies at the facilities, coupled with limited space. The study reveals a high level of readiness for the integration of ART services at departmental levels among Primary Healthcare Providers. Notably, PHCPs knowledgeable about integration and those who spent at least six years at the current health facility of work, were strong determinants for the integration of ART services in resource limited settings. In light of these findings, we recommend that policymakers prioritize the implementation of training programs aimed at upskilling healthcare workers. Furthermore, we advocate that a cluster randomized controlled trial be conducted, to evaluate the long-term effects of this integration on overall health outcomes.

THE ROLE OF E-LEARNING READINESS ON SELF-REGULATION IN OPEN AND DISTANCE LEARNING

In recent years, the proliferation of online and distance education has dramatically changed the landscape of education. With the growing demand for flexible and accessible learning opportunities, learners are increasingly turning to online and distance education programs to pursue their academic, personal, and professional goals. However, this modality of learning also presents unique challenges for learners, particularly when it comes to e-learning readiness and self-regulated learning. To explore these factors within the context of the online distance learning environment, this study used a cross-sectional quantitative research method to examine the differences in self-regulated learning skills of open and distance learners in terms of e-learning readiness in the Open Education System of Anadolu University. For the purpose of the study, an online survey was used to collect data. The participants of the study comprised 466 online distance learners. Results indicated that learners with high e-learning readiness levels had higher self-regulated learning skills compared to those with low levels. It was also determined that self-regulated learning skills did not differ in terms of the gender of the learners while they differed in terms of the time the learners spent on the learning management system.

Medical preparedness and response for a nuclear or radiological emergency: an assessment study in selected hospitals of the ministry of health across Saudi Arabia

This study aimed to assess and improve the preparedness of selected hospitals in Saudi Arabia for nuclear and radiological emergencies. A team of experts developed and issued guidelines for radiation emergency response, selected 21 referral hospitals across the country, provided technical and logistical support, evaluated preparedness and provided recommendations for improvement. An evaluation process with four essential criteria (early detection of accidents, medical response team responsibilities, availability and accessibility of equipment and supplies, and training on the implementation of the emergency plan) and 50 sub-criteria was conducted, and hospitals’ preparedness was assessed. The initial assessment showed that most hospitals had a moderate level of preparedness, with an average overall score of 67.5%. Interventions were implemented through training workshops, guidelines, checklists, and feedback. The follow-up assessment showed that the intervention was highly effective in enhancing the preparedness of all hospitals, with an average overall score of 99.1%. All hospitals achieved the benchmark of 80% or higher in all four aspects, with 14 hospitals scoring 100% and the remaining seven hospitals requiring further technical support.

PARENTS’ ENGAGEMENT AND READINESS IN CHILDREN ONLINE LEARNING IN BHUTAN

The present quantitative study explored parents’ engagement in children’s online learning, considering parents’ readiness to engage in their child’s online learning and aligned those with a discussion of parents’ education qualifications. The sample of the study was 374 primary school students’ parents. The data was gathered through survey questionnaires which were checked for reliability before being administered. Descriptive analysis was employed to study parents’ engagement and readiness levels in their child’s online learning, and to study the difference in parents’ engagement and readiness levels based on parents’ education level. One-way ANOVA was employed. In addition, correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between parents’ readiness level and their engagement in children’s online learning. The findings from the study revealed that parents were engaged in their children’s online learning and confirmed the high readiness level towards involvement in their child’s online learning. However, parents’ engagement and readiness level differed by parents’ educational level so that there was a positive relationship noted between engagement in children’s online learning and their readiness towards online learning. Therefore, the study suggests that parental education level and their readiness towards online learning needs to be considered when schools move teaching and learning online.

Assessment of Students' Perceived Preparedness for E-learning in Ibadan, Nigeria

Background: The occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic has made software developers come up with different e-learning tools to facilitate distance learning in institutions. These tools have eased the challenges brought about by limited contact among persons during that period and there could be variations in the level of preparedness to use these tools among different populations. This study thus aimed to assess the level of student’s preparedness to use these e-learning tools.&#x0D; Materials and Methods: A descriptive design was used to carry out this study among 203 respondents of the Federal Training Centre for Teachers of Health Sciences, in the University College Hospital, Ibadan.

Emergency Department Pediatric Readiness and Disparities in Mortality Based on Race and Ethnicity

Presentation to emergency departments (EDs) with high levels of pediatric readiness is associated with improved pediatric survival. However, it is unclear whether children of all races and ethnicities benefit equitably from increased levels of such readiness. To evaluate the association of ED pediatric readiness with in-hospital mortality among children of different races and ethnicities with traumatic injuries or acute medical emergencies. This cohort study of children requiring emergency care in 586 EDs across 11 states was conducted from January 1, 2012, through December 31, 2017. Eligible participants included children younger than 18 years who were hospitalized for an acute medical emergency or traumatic injury. Data analysis was conducted between November 2022 and April 2023. Hospitalization for acute medical emergency or traumatic injury. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. ED pediatric readiness was measured through the weighted Pediatric Readiness Score (wPRS) from the 2013 National Pediatric Readiness Project assessment and categorized by quartile. Multivariable, hierarchical, mixed-effects logistic regression was used to evaluate the association of race and ethnicity with in-hospital mortality. The cohort included 633 536 children (median [IQR] age 4 [0-12] years]). There were 557 537 children (98 504 Black [17.7%], 167 838 Hispanic [30.1%], 311 157 White [55.8%], and 147 876 children of other races or ethnicities [26.5%]) who were hospitalized for acute medical emergencies, of whom 5158 (0.9%) died; 75 999 children (12 727 Black [16.7%], 21 604 Hispanic [28.4%], 44 203 White [58.2%]; and 21 609 of other races and ethnicities [27.7%]) were hospitalized for traumatic injuries, of whom 1339 (1.8%) died. Adjusted mortality of Black children with acute medical emergencies was significantly greater than that of Hispanic children, White children, and of children of other races and ethnicities (odds ratio [OR], 1.69; 95% CI, 1.59-1.79) across all quartile levels of ED pediatric readiness; but there were no racial or ethnic disparities in mortality when comparing Black children with traumatic injuries with Hispanic children, White children, and children of other races and ethnicities with traumatic injuries (OR 1.01; 95% CI, 0.89-1.15). When compared with hospitals in the lowest quartile of ED pediatric readiness, children who were treated at hospitals in the highest quartile had significantly lower mortality in both the acute medical emergency cohort (OR 0.24; 95% CI, 0.16-0.36) and traumatic injury cohort (OR, 0.39; 95% CI, 0.25-0.61). The greatest survival advantage associated with high pediatric readiness was experienced for Black children in the acute medical emergency cohort. In this study, racial and ethnic disparities in mortality existed among children treated for acute medical emergencies but not traumatic injuries. Increased ED pediatric readiness was associated with reduced disparities; it was estimated that increasing the ED pediatric readiness levels of hospitals in the 3 lowest quartiles would result in an estimated 3-fold reduction in disparity for pediatric mortality. However, increased pediatric readiness did not eliminate disparities, indicating that organizations and initiatives dedicated to increasing ED pediatric readiness should consider formal integration of health equity into efforts to improve pediatric emergency care.

The results of the questionnaire were analyzed using the SPSS statistical software, and the data obtained included age, gender, education level, and responses to several questions that were relevant to community readiness for COD services. The results of the analysis show that the majority of the community shows a high level of readiness for the COD application, with around 50.0% to 60.0% of respondents belonging to the ready and very ready categories. The diverse age range of respondents indicates that the COD application can reach young age groups, and the varying levels of education indicate that this application attracts interest from various walks of life. The gender of the respondents did not show a significant difference in the level of interest in COD services. Even though the majority showed high readiness, there were some respondents who showed a lower level of readiness. Therefore, a special approach is needed to provide further information and education to this group to increase their readiness to use COD services. In conclusion, the COD application has great potential to become a popular and reliable choice for users to make purchases online. However, effective marketing, education and product development efforts need to be continued to reach the full potential of COD services and provide better benefits to potential users. By focusing on good user experience, data security, and the right marketing strategy, COD applications have a chance of success in a competitive market.

An autonomous rail-road amphibious robotic system for railway maintenance using sensor fusion and mobile manipulator

The current maintenance of railway infrastructure replies heavily on human involvement, requiring possession of the track section during maintenance, resulting in high costs and inefficient execution. This paper proposes an autonomous rail-road amphibious robotic system for railway inspection and maintenance tasks. By virtue of its road and rail-autonomous mobility, it is able to execute the complete maintenance execution flow in multiple phases. The system provides flexible track job location access, low-cost maintenance execution, and reduced track network possession. The payload mobile manipulator and sensor fusion enhance the system's capabilities for multiple types of inspection and repair. The design of a command and control system was guided by a rule-based expert system strategy to enable remote operation of the whole system. The developed demonstrator of a track wheel accompanied unmanned ground vehicle was integrated and demonstrated in both operational and realistic track environments with multiple testing activities of remote operation, navigation, accurate job detection, inspection, and repair, confirming effective job completion and logical human interaction. The proposed method produces an outstanding hardware-software integrated robotic inspection and repair system with a high level of technological readiness for autonomous railway maintenance and intelligent railway asset management.

Enhancing corporate readiness for and resilience to future public health threats, development and deployment of the public health readiness and resilience (PHRR) assessment tool.

As the world suffered through the COVID-19 pandemic, it is increasingly clear that the health of populations is foundational to a high-functioning economy, corporate well-being, and a core driver of social justice. Thus, companies need to understand how to become more resilient to current and future threats. This study (1) explored dimensions of resilience from a public health risk-specific lens and reviewed existing evaluation tools and frameworks to develop a methodology and framework (Public Health Readiness and Resilience-PHRR Assessment Tool) for organizations; and (2) leveraged the framework to evaluate a sample of large corporations to validate the insights the tool can provide, confirm functionality, and evaluate the ability to leverage publicly available vs. propriety data to complete the assessment. We conducted a non-exhaustive search for relevant indices using key word searches and cascade sampling. For the initial review of indices (n = 24), the team evaluated each document based on predefined criteria. Gaps identified in the available indices informed the development of the PHRR assessment tool. The tool was then used to examine real-world companies (n = 22) from eight different industries. Findings from the PHRR tool illustrated variation in readiness and resilience as well as the availability of data. Approximately half of the companies analyzed (n = 11) indicated high levels of potential resilience and readiness with significant data available. Leveraging the PHRR Assessment Tool can inform investments and cross-sector partnerships that enhance companies' readiness and resilience to a variety of public health threats. Additional research is needed to further validate this tool.

Этнокультурная идентичность как показатель сформированности профессиональной готовности будущего психолога к поликультурному взаимодействию

The paper examines the psychological and pedagogical aspects of future psychologists’ readiness for professional activities in the conditions of multiculturalism. The aim of the study is to substantiate the possibility of using ethno-cultural identity types as indicators of future psychologists’ readiness for professional activities in multicultural conditions. Various approaches to the category of readiness in psychology and pedagogy are considered. Professional readiness is understood as an integral personal characteristic that includes awareness of one’s abilities, preparedness and the desire to realize them in professional activities. The scientific novelty lies in elaborating the essence of the notion of “future psychologists’ professional readiness for multicultural interaction”, as well as in identifying the relationship between ethno-cultural identity and the formation of future psychologists’ professional readiness for multicultural interaction. The results of the study showed that that the high level of readiness for professional activities in multicultural conditions is observed only among students with positive ethno-cultural identity. The more pronounced positive ethno-cultural identity is, the higher the level of future psychologists’ professional readiness for multicultural interaction is, which determines the importance of developing this type of identity among specialists working in multicultural conditions. Ethnonigilism is associated with the low level of future psychologists’ readiness for multicultural interaction. Expectations, attitude to another culture and its assessment, confidence in one’s abilities and competencies are important aspects of professional readiness for multicultural interaction, but its strongest indicator is intercultural interest.

КОРРЕКТИРОВАНИЕ ПЕРИОДИЧНОСТИ ОПЕРАЦИЙ ТЕХНИЧЕСКОГО СЕРВИСА МОБИЛЬНЫХ МАШИН С УЧЕТОМ ЖЕСТКОСТИ КЛИМАТА

Based on the analysis of the main operational factors, among which, for specific areas of equipment supply, one of the main ones is the climatic factor, as well as the main damaging degradation processes during the operation of machines, an effective mechanism for planning the frequency of maintenance operations is proposed, which helps to ensure a high level of technical readiness of machines. The operability potential was analyzed, its active, reserve and passive parts were considered, which made it possible to present a model for changing and restoring the operability potential of a mobile machine. Mathematical dependences are given for certain models of machines of the same functional purpose, as well as characterizing processes of reducing the potential of their performance in a certain external environment, their transformation is noted when changing natural and climatic operating conditions. The construction of a priori diagram of the ranks of climatic factors made it possible to note that the most significant adverse effect is exerted by temperature, humidity and solar radiation in the operating area. Taking into account the distribution of zones of technical rigidity of the climate, its score and the coefficient of continentality, a method is proposed for correcting the frequency of operations of technical service of transport-technological machines for the zone of their actual operation.
