Zuhair Sadiq,1 Ibrahim Laswi,2 Ameed Raoof2 1Weiss Memorial Hospital, Chicago, IL, USA; 2Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar, Education City, Qatar Foundation, Doha, QatarCorrespondence: Zuhair Sadiq, Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar, Education City, Qatar Foundation, Doha, Qatar, Tel +1-630-803-8220, Email zys4001@qatar-med.cornell.eduIntroduction: In recent years with the advent of technology in medical education, teaching methodology has shifted towards heavy use of online-learning modalities. This has been especially the case for anatomy and radiology courses since they require students to visualize structures of the human body. Several studies indicated that Anatomage and OsiriX can be effective at enhancing students’ learning experiences in anatomy and radiology.Purpose: This aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of online case-based learning modules in teaching medical students about the anatomy and radiology of different types of brain tumors.Methods: Two online case-based learning modules were designed using Anatomage Table® and OsiriX DICOM viewer®, consisting of a clinical case and CT and MRI images. We recruited 36 fourth-year medical students that completed two 10-question quizzes (one on glioblastoma multiforme and one on pituitary adenomas). Participants were randomly assigned to either a study group that completed both modules prior to completing the quizzes, or a control group that completed the quizzes without access to the modules. The performance of both groups was compared to assess the effectiveness of the modules. Participants in the study group also completed a feedback survey to assess the quality and convenience of using the modules.Results: Students who used the case-based learning modules performed significantly better than those who did not (Quiz 1: mean = 6.56 vs 3.28, p< 0.01. Quiz 2: mean = 6.67 vs 3.06, p< 0.01). Students who completed the modules would like to see similar modules used in teaching anatomy and radiology in t

Abstract

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has affected millions of individuals worldwide. The global scientific effort to design an effective vaccine against this virus has led to the development of several vaccine candidates. The expedited rollout of these vaccines has created some public distrust regarding the safety of these new vaccines. This review compiles clinical data from reports of diagnosed immune-related neurological events that have occurred after COVID-19 vaccine administration with the exception of those secondary to hematological abnormalities. A systematic literature search was performed, using several databases, to identify reports of postvaccination adverse neurological events. The search resulted in 18 studies that met our criteria. These studies included 61 patients who had received COVID-19 vaccines and experienced at least 1 neurological adverse effect. The most common neurological event was facial nerve palsy (50% of all events). Other less frequently reported events included the reactivation of herpes zoster, Guillain-Barre syndrome, other demyelinating diseases, and neuropathy. The underlying mechanism was hypothesized to be related to vaccine-induced type 1 interferon production leading to decreased tolerance of the myelin sheath antigens. Other hypotheses include vaccine-induced transient lymphopenia and immune dysregulation. Most of the reported events were time limited and resolved spontaneously. Given the rarity of reported neurological events compared to the total number of vaccines administered, and the similarity in the incidence of events between COVID-19 vaccines and other more common vaccines, there is little evidence to support a causal relationship between COVID-19 vaccines and adverse neurological events.
