A New Dietary Fiber Can Enhance Satiety And Reduce Postprandial Blood Glucose In Healthy Adults: A Randomized Cross-Over Trial, Simou Wu, Wen Jia, Huimin He, Jun Yin, Huilin Xu, Chengyuan He, Qinqiu Zhang, Yue Peng, Ruyue Cheng

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

BACKGROUND: Dietary fiber plays a potential role in regulating energy intake and stabilizing postprandial blood glucose levels. Soluble dietary fiber has become an important entry point for nutritional research on the regulation of satiety.

METHODS: this was a double-blind, randomized cross-over trial enrolling 12 healthy subjects to compare the effects of RPG (R+PolyGly) dietary fiber products (bread, powder, and capsule) and pectin administered with a standard meal on satiety, blood glucose, and serum insulin level.

RESULTS: Adding 3.8% RPG dietary fiber to bread significantly increased the volume, water content, hardness, and chewiness of bread compared to 3.8% pectin bread and …

Validation Of The Factor Structure Of The Health Professionals’ Attitudes Toward The Homeless Inventory (Hpathi), Susan Toth-Cohen, Maria Brucato, Kerry Dinardo, Richard Hass

JCIPE Posters

Background

- Considerable stigma exists toward persons experiencing homelessness (PEH)—a vulnerable population at greater risk for health disparities.^{1, 2}

- Many healthcare students begin their programs without interacting with PEH and with preconceived notions influenced by societal stigma.

- Interprofessional education programs, such as the Enhancing Services for People Experiencing Homelessness program below, have incorporated experiential learning into curricula to address student biases and develop understanding and compassion.

• Educating students to understand issues that PEH face can help mitigate healthcare disparities.

- Evaluating the effectiveness of these interprofessional educational experiences requires valid assessment of the attitudes, interest, and confidence …

An Exploratory Investigation Of Longitudinal Interprofessional Education Attitudes At The Team Level, Tina Patel Gunaldo, Colette Baudoin, Sharon Duffy, Harun Mazumder, Scott Edwards

Center for Interprofessional Education and Collaborative Practice Papers

Introduction: Although interprofessional education (IPE) experiences inherently include students from different academic programs working together, most quantitative IPE longitudinal research is analyzed at the all-student level or academic program level. There is a need to assess IPE outcomes at the team level.

Methods: Pre-licensure students participating in a two-year IPE curriculum were randomly assigned to 60 teams. Each student completed the Student Perceptions of Interprofessional Clinical Education Revised instrument, version 2 (SPICE-R2) using a retrospective pre/post-test design at the end of the first and second year. Boxplots of score changes for each of the teams were constructed. Differences in SPICE-R2 …

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

The United States faces several ongoing public health issues including the opioid epidemic. This article describes a new model aimed at providing a framework that incorporates the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to develop pharmacy student leaders through education, experiences, and development of critical skills. This holistic approach can serve as an example methodology to equip future leaders across public health domains to tackle many of the critical problems we face today.

A Systematic Review And Meta-Analysis Of Empathy Changes In Medical Students During Medical Education, Sahar Panjwani, Jiyun Lim, Matthew Hidalgo, Michael Machiorlatti, Minerva Angelica Romero Arenas

Research Colloquium

Introduction: Reduction in empathy has been explored in medical students (MS). Questions remain on whether significant changes in empathy occur during MS education.

Objective: Focusing on studies using the Jefferson Scale of Empathy medical student version (JSE-S), the authors aimed to quantify and assess reported changes across reviewed literature.

Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed using PRISMA guidelines. Criteria for inclusion were articles 1) written in English, 2) pertained to human subjects, and 3) written in the previous ten years (2009-2019). Exclusion criteria were those that 1) did not assess MS, 2) did not utilize the JSE-S, 3) …

Impact Of Preparing Nursing Students To Deliver A Parent-Based Sexual Health Intervention On Attitudes And Intentions For Sexual Health Education And Parent Communication Counseling: A Mixed Methods Study, Deidra Carroll Coleman, Anitra Frederick, Stanley Cron, Christine Markham, Vincent Guilamo-Ramos, Diane Santa Maria

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

BACKGROUND: Nurses are well positioned to promote sexual health but are not adequately prepared in their nursing programs to engage families on this topic and often lack the knowledge and confidence necessary to counsel families about sexual health communication. The purpose of this study was to determine how facilitating a parent-based sexual health intervention would impact nursing students' attitudes and intentions about sexual health education and parent communication counseling.

METHODS: Using an embedded mixed-methods design, which integrated a quasi-experimental framework, we examined the impact of participation in a parent-based sexual health intervention among 126 baccalaureate nursing students enrolled in a …

The Reality Of Virtual Undergraduate Medical Education: Hands-On Learning In A Hands-Free World, Layla Nejad, Paola Ibarra, Aleena Flores, Robert Nelson Jr.

Research Colloquium

Background & Purpose: In the wake of the current COVID-19 pandemic, medical education has been forced to rely on virtual experiences including skills workshops, patient interactions, and oral exams. The virtual reality (VR) technology that currently exists has the potential to enhance undergraduate medical learning by improving information retention, clinical skills, and communication; however, most undergraduate medical education (UME) curricula lack its integration and use. Introducing VR to the UTRGV School of Medicine (SOM) could incorporate all existing learning styles and update the virtual world where medical students live and learn, leading to more versatile future-physicians.

Methods: We have explored …
