Individuals with #LynchSyndrome are at increased risk for multiple cancer types (common ones shown here). Note: MLH1 has the highest pancreatic cancer risk, MSH2 has the highest urothelial & prostate cancer risk, & PMS2 risks are mainly CRC & EC. #ColorectalCancerAwarenessMonth

Ground breaking research showing a single intervention that reduces SSI after abdominal surgery 🏅
We now have strong evidence to promote change of gloves and instruments before abdominal closure. Is this part of your current practice? Please feedback redcap.link/cheetah

Instead of telling kids not to play video games, adults should play too.
Compared to kids who don’t play, those who play 3 hrs/day have better working memory & impulse control. Experiments show cognitive benefits for adults too.
Video games are a form of exercise for the brain.
