These results indicate that students experience psychological distress from a number of stressors and suggest that medical schools should act as key partners in supporting student well-being by promoting self-care, educating students on the risks of burnout, and developing programs to support at-risk students.

Our results point to the important opportunity universities and medical schools have promoting MSR well-being by reducing institutional stressors, as well as teaching and promoting self-care and burnout avoidance techniques, instituting wellness interventions, and developing programs to identify and support at risk and distressed students.

Chicken from retail outlets located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, commonly contained blaCMY-2-bearing E coli. The relationship antibiotics used in food-producing animals and its effect on resistance of commensals and pathogens needs to be determined.

To determine the physical literacy, defined as the capability for a physically active lifestyle, of children with medical conditions compared with healthy peers, this multicenter cross-sectional study recruited children with medical conditions from cardiology, neurology (including concussion), rheumatology, mental health, respirology, oncology, hematology, and rehabilitation (including cerebral palsy) clinics. Participants aged 8-12 years (N=130; mean age: 10.0±1.44 years; 44% female) were randomly matched to three healthy peers from a normative database, based on age, sex, and month of testing. Total physical literacy was assessed by the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy, a validated assessment of physical literacy measuring physical competence, daily behavior, knowledge/understanding, and motivation/confidence. Total physical literacy mean scores(/100) did not differ (t(498)=-0.67; p=0.44) between participants (61.0±14.2) and matched healthy peers (62.0±10.7). Children with medical conditions had lower mean physical competence scores (/30; -6.5 [-7.44, -5.51]; p<0.001) but higher mean motivation/confidence scores (/30; 2.6 [1.67, 3.63]; p<0.001). Mean daily behavior and knowledge/understanding scores did not differ from matches (/30; 1.8 [0.26, 3.33]; p=0.02; /10; -0.04 [-0.38, 0.30]; p=0.81; respectively). Children with medical conditions are motivated to be physically active but demonstrate impaired movement skills and fitness, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to improve their physical competence. Novelty bullets: • Physical literacy in children with diverse chronic medical conditions is similar to healthy peers • Children with medical conditions have lower physical competence than healthy peers, but higher motivation and confidence • Physical competence (motor skill, fitness) interventions, rather than motivation or education, are needed for these youth
