TL;DR: Aerobic exercise training had a small but clinically significant effect in reducing systolic and diastolic BP and increasing exercise intensity above 70% VO2 max or increasing exercise frequency to more than three sessions per week did not have any additional impact on reducing BP.

TL;DR: Results appear to indicate that aerobic exercise training produced small but favourable modifications to blood lipids in previously sedentary adults, and the evidence for the effect of resistance exercise training was inconclusive.

TL;DR: Problem‐based learning in medical education uses clinical cases as the context for students to study basic and clinical sciences and its possible advantages include its greater relevance to the practice of medicine, its ability to promote retention and application of knowledge, and its encouragement of self‐directed life‐long learning.

TL;DR: While there was no difference between the groups for all measures of quality of life, patients in the accelerated discharge and home-based rehabilitation group recorded a greater improvement in MBI from randomization and scored higher on the Falls Ef”cacy Scale at four months.

TL;DR: While the strategy was well received by the physicians involved, there was no change in prescribing patterns and the project highlights challenges of delivering evidence based care in a setting in which there is a paucity of well controlled trial evidence but where significant health outcomes can be attained.
