YouTube is a visual library that is growing at incredible pace, especially with the rise of COVID-19 pandemic. Pulmonary rehabilitation refers to the rehabilitation treatment of patients with chronic pulmonary diseases. YouTube has made it possible to practice remote rehabilitation, the effectiveness of which have been proven non-inferior to traditional approaches.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, medical students switched from an in-person to virtual curriculum. This shift placed stress on medical schools to find alternatives to train students. Students relied on recorded lectures, emails, and video-conferencing to stay up-to-date with schoolwork. Understanding student experiences during the pandemic will help prepare students and administrators for repeat lockdown events. The goal of this study is to understand the experiences of medical students during the pandemic.

Alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) is typically managed using the Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment (CIWA) protocol which includes benzodiazepines, supportive care, and close clinical monitoring. Alternatives to benzodiazepines such as phenobarbital provide several advantages including less frequent dosing, longer tapering off of doses, and additional glutamate inhibition. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and potential benefit to using phenobarbital in addition to CIWA protocol in the treatment of AWS at Beaumont, Royal Oak.

Forced Vital Capacity (FVC) is a common parameter used to assess disease progression in patients with Interstitial lung disease (ILD) and acts as a surrogate for mortality. Previous studies suggest Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) may be an earlier predictor of disease progression in ILD. In this study, we compared predictive ability of baseline FRC to FVC to predict one-year-mortality and respiratory related hospitalization in patients with mild to moderate ILD
