This study reviews the growth and current state of the specialty of emergency medicine (EM) around the world. The 2023 World Health Assembly resolution emphasized emergency care as a cost-effective means to reduce health disparities and called for increased investment in emergency and critical care. Although EM is an increasingly recognized medical specialty, its growth faces barriers such as insufficient training programs, workforce shortages, and systemic challenges including resource shortages and burnout.

Per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent synthetic chemicals with strong carbon-fluorine (C-F) bonds, making them resistant to environmental degradation. Their widespread presence in groundwater, surface water, and drinking water, is a serious environmental threat. This artciles demonstrates the potential of novel adsorbents to achieve high PFAS removal rates while minimizing secondary contamination risks.

This study is significant because it highlights the importance of accurate ice thickness estimations for glaciological and hydrological research, which are essential for predicting glacier behavior and assessing water resources. By identifying limitations in current modeling techniques, it underscores the need for improved models and more extensive field measurements to enhance understanding of glacier dynamics and their implications for climate change, sea level rise, and freshwater availability.
