    This systematic review was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of technology-enhanced learning (TEL) used in medical teaching for undergraduate medical students. The objectives are to (a) identify various teaching modalities which are used to enhance TEL; (b) evaluate whether TEL is more effective than traditional learning (TL) in cognitive and affective learning domain outcome. The empirical studies were searched in the following databases: Google Scholar, MEDLINE, ERIC, ProQuest, Cochrane Library and Scopus. All papers published from 2008 to 2018 were included. From eligible studies, the study design, study field, study population, intervention methods, type of assessment and learning achievement were abstracted and summarized the information. The search results were independently reviewed by two authors. From a pool of 1384 articles, 43 eligible articles were identified, enrolling 7292 undergraduate medical students examining comparative study between TEL and traditional learning. The results showed that there was a high degree of heterogeneity seen amongst the included studies in terms of TEL modalities used. The majority of intervention studies favoured online resources, while the rest used various offline multimedia electronic devices, virtual simulations and blended modes. Overall findings showed promising data that TEL is better than TL with regards to knowledge gain and skill acquisition, as well as providing higher student satisfaction. In all, the findings present blended learning in a positive and promising light in time, particularly where systematic reviews on technology-enhanced learning in the field of the undergraduate medical programme have produced mixed result.REVIEW ARTICLEA Systematic Literature Review on Technology-Enhanced Learning in Medical EducationMay Honey Ohn1*, Bareth Ravindran2, Chan Zhi Wei3, Khin Maung Ohn4, Ng Pey Luen5Borneo Journal of Medical Sciences 14 (1) January, 2020: 3 – 171 Emergency Department, Sandwell & West Birmingham NHS Trust, United Kingdom2 Surgical Department, Hospital Tuanku Ja’afar Seremban, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia3 Orthopaedics Department, Hospital Sungai Buloh, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia4 Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Universiti Malaysia Sabah, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia5 Radiology Department, Hospital Queen Elizabeth II, Sabah, Malaysia* Corresponding author’s email: mayhoney.ohn@gmail.com Received: 14 July 2019 Accepted: 5 November 2019Borneo Journal of Medical SciencesBJMSKeywords: blended learning, technology-enhanced learning, medical education, hybrid learning, undergraduate medical students

    Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a record of electrical activity of the heart. PQRST waves represent
    the electrical activities of atria and ventricles. A complete three-dimensional electrical activity is
    possible to be recorded using a 12-lead ECG. The normal and different routinely-met clinical ECG
    are elaborated and discussed. This routine, normal and abnormal ECG, like arrhythmias and heart
    block records as well as their clinical notes shall be educational information for the medical students.

    Contralateral hyperhidrosis from the cardiovascular accident has been infrequently described in the stroke literature. The clinical significance and pathogenesis are yet well understood. This is a case of a 60-year-old man who developed excessive sweating of the paralyzed side with a pure division along the midline of the body secondary to a subcortical stroke, which region is supplied by branches of middle cerebral artery territory known as deep perforating lenticulostriate. To the best of our knowledge, a precise clinicoanatomic correlation between hyperhidrosis and subcortical stroke has not been widely reported. In this review, we summarize the existing literature of post-stroke hyperhidrosis to evaluate the correlation between clinical manifestation and its neuroanatomical location. According to the location of the infarction and clinical features, it can be concluded that both tracks en route through the ipsilateral internal capsule, after originating in the opercular cortex before crossing the brain stem and terminal connections with the contralateral thoracic spinal cord. Therefore, the phenomenon of hyperhidrosis in anterior circulation stroke might be postulated as due to the disruption of the sympathoinhibitory pathway that controls sweat glands, similarly like posterior circulation stroke.

    Children’s occupational performance are activities of daily living, play/ leisure, social participation, education, and work. In developed countries, school-based therapy services are being provided for schoolchildren with special needs. The importance of these services in Malaysia is timely to be explored. This exploratory cross-sectional study identified occupational performance levels of primary schoolchildren with special needs in integrated special education programmes in Malaysia; children with intellectual disability, autism, attention deficit hyperactive disorder, Down syndrome, speech impairment, visual impairment, hearing impairment, and specific learning disorder. Researchers conducted Motor-Free Visual Perceptual Test Third Edition (MVPT-3), Beery-Buktenica Developmental Test of Visual-Motor Integration Fifth Edition (Beery-VMI), Test of Gross Motor Development – 2 (TGMD-2), Test of Hand Writing Skills-Revised (THS-R), and School Function Assessment (SFA) for 121 students. Results showed that 69.5% of the students scored very low to low average in MVPT-3 (median standard score = 70.0, Std. IQR = 37); 69.4% were very low to below average in Beery-VMI (mean standard score = 78.8, Std. deviation = 20.5); 73% were below age level raw score in TGMD-2; 72.8% were below average in THS-R (median standard score = 74.0, Std. IQR = 27.0); and 81% were below the criterion cut-off in school function. The children with below-normal MVPT, VMI, TGMD2, and THS scores, compared to the children with normal scores for these tests had significantly lower scores (p < 0.001). All the students had impairment in occupation performance at least in one area. This study recommends school-based occupational therapy and other rehabilitation services in the school system in Malaysia.

    Introduction:Alcohol is a major factor that can affect many aspects of life. The prevalence of current drinker in Malaysia aged 13 years old and above was 7.7% as reported by NHMS 2015. Sabah was ranked the third in highest consumption of alcohol in Malaysia, at 18.4% after Kuala Lumpur 20.3% and Sarawak 19.7%. The aim of the study is to investigate prevalence of different types of drinkers and identify demographic characteristic of drinkers in Kota Kinabalu (KK). This study also aims to investigate the effectiveness of screening and brief intervention in reduction of alcohol consumption and risky drinking in KK. Methods: A cross-sectional study was done where the data were col-lected from seven different areas in KK, selected by stratified and simple randomized sampling. Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT) questionnaire translated and validated in Malay version by Unit Terjemahan Universiti Malaya was used. AUDIT score was calculated and brief intervention was given accordingly and scoring was then repeated after three months. The intervention applied was based on Guideline on Risk Assessment and Primary In-tervention in Alcohol Harm, published by Ministry of Health Malaysia in 2010. Results: The age range of population studied is from 13 to 85 years old with 243 males and 230 females. Out of the 473 participants, 13.1% adolescent, 37.6% young adulthood, 36.4% middle adulthood and 12.9% in late adulthood. We observed that the male mean weight was 68.27±12.72kg versus 58.86±12.45kg mean weight in female. The prevalence of drinkers – 3.6% depen-dent drinkers, 22.2% high risk drinkers, 36.2% low risk drinker while the remaining 38.1% are abstainers. Majority of consumers were practicing low-risk drinking pattern which highlighted the need for prevention and harm minimiza-tion programme. Paired sample t-test shows that the decrease in AUDIT three months after intervention is statistically significant. Conclusion: This study conducted in KK suggests that screening coupled with brief intervention can help reduce alcohol misuse and risky drinking and should be practiced in all primary healthcare facilities.
