Fatigability of spinal reflex transmission in a mouse model (SOD1(G93A) ) of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.   Muscle Nerve, 43(2): 230-6.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of motor neurons. To analyze the progressive motor deficits during the course of this disease, we investigated fatigability and ability of recovery of spinal motor neurons by testing monosynaptic reflex transmission with increasing stimulus frequencies in the lumbar spinal cord of the SOD1(G93A) mouse model for ALS in a comparison with wild-type (WT) mice. Monosynaptic reflexes in WT and ... [Abstract] [Full-text]

Residency training at a crossroads: duty-hour standards 2010.   Ann Intern Med, 153(12): 826-8.

In 2003, the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) implemented a single duty-hour standard nationwide. The evidence to date suggests that this neither improved nor worsened patient outcomes. In June 2010, the ACGME proposed a new set of duty-hour standards for implementation in July 2011. The main disadvantage of this approach is that there is no ability to determine whether different standards would have worked better to reduce resident fatigue while improving patient ...
