Abstract
Key Points:
Left-hand-dominant (LHD) respondents reported higher rates of training difficulties because of handedness differences. LHD respondents cited particular difficulty with functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Both LHD and right-hand-dominant respondents perceived a need for laterality-specific training during residency.

Lateralization
367
Brain lateralization refers to the division of mental processes and functions between the two hemispheres of the brain, a phenomenon that optimizes neural efficiency and underpins complex abilities in humans. This specialization allows each hemisphere to perform tasks where it has a comparative advantage, facilitating more refined cognitive capabilities across different domains.

Naming Enantiomers
20.6K
The naming of enantiomers employs the Cahn–Ingold–Prelog rules that involve assigning priorities to different substituent groups at a chiral center. Each enantiomer, being a distinct molecule, is assigned a unique name by the Cahn–Ingold–Prelog (CIP) rules, also called the R–S system. The prefix R- or S- attached to the chiral centers in an enantiomer is dependent on the spatial arrangement of the four substituents on the chiral center. The R–S system...
