Comparing a four-week telehealth education module with general skin cancer education, researchers found that while the intervention did not significantly reduce sunburns in children overall, it led to greater improvements in sun-protective behaviours. These findings suggest that telehealth education, combined with additional strategies, may be needed to better protect high-risk children from sun damage.<\/p>\n<p><b>2: Does Attention Deficit Now = Memory Deficit Later?&nbsp;<\/b><\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/jamanetwork.com\/journals\/jamapsychiatry\/fullarticle\/2854889?utm_source=postcall.ca&amp;utm_medium=newsletter&amp;utm_campaign=the-secret-to-living-194-years\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">cohort study<\/a> of more than 180,000 adults found that ADHD was associated with a significantly higher hazard of developing mild cognitive impairment or dementia (hazard ratio [HR], 4.60; 95% CI, 3.99&ndash;5.29; P &lt; .001). Using electronic health records and genomic data, researchers identified a potential association that warrants further investigation.

Additionally, early initiation of the biologic was linked to less disability progression, with no new safety signals, including serious infections, reported over the long-term study period. These findings support the long-term efficacy and safety profile of ocrelizumab for patients with relapsing multiple sclerosis and underscore the importance of early treatment initiation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h1><span><b>Closing Your Practice? Who Handles the Records?<\/b><\/span><\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Closing or relocating a practice does not end a physician&rsquo;s responsibility for patient records. Across Canada, provincial colleges require advance notice before a planned closure, commonly 90 days, and set minimum retention periods that vary by province. The CMPA recommends retaining records for at least ten years from the last entry, or ten years from the age of majority. Throughout that period, patients must continue to have access to their records.<\/p>\n<p><span>In practice, this means two distinct bodies of work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>The first is the closure itself.<\/b> Every patient in the practice must be notified, which can mean thousands of letters prepared and mailed using frequently outdated patient lists. This involves printing, stuffing envelopes and spending thousands of dollars on postage alone. Undeliverable mail requires follow-up, while notices generate calls from patients asking where their records will be held and how to access them.<\/p>\n<p><b>The second begins after retirement.<\/b> For a decade or longer, requests continue arriving from patients, new physicians, insurers and legal counsel.
