This study developed and validated the Clinical Simulation Learning Satisfaction Scale, a reliable eight-item instrument, to effectively assess nursing students' satisfaction with knowledge transfer from clinical simulation to real healthcare settings.
This study evaluated 11 English-language digital applications for perinatal mental health in Australia using the Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS), finding that while functionality was strong, overall quality was moderate with limited evidence-based content, validated screening tools, and crisis referrals, highlighting a need for improved visibility and targeted collaboration to ensure equitable access.
This national prospective cohort study of over 11,000 older Chinese adults demonstrates that higher and more sustained peak expiratory flow (PEF) is independently associated with a reduced risk of incident hip fracture, with approximately 32% of this protective effect mediated by activities of daily living (ADL) disability.
This retrospective cohort study of 24,794 men in Nairobi (2019–2023) identifies malnutrition, adverse drug reactions, and alcohol use as key risk factors for tuberculosis treatment interruption, while highlighting that consistent clinic attendance serves as a strong protective factor, suggesting that targeted nutritional support and improved health system engagement are critical for improving treatment continuity in urban high-burden settings.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of using the Brazilian version of the Professionalism Mini-Evaluation Exercise (P-MEX) to assess pediatric residents, revealing that professionalism is a developmental competency that varies across domains and years of training rather than being a stable attribute.
This retrospective study of 1,020 hip fracture patients demonstrates that early postoperative ambulation, particularly by day three, is a critical modifiable predictor of shorter hospital stays and successful home discharge, with recovery frequently delayed by reversible barriers such as delirium, frailty, anemia, and malnutrition.
This randomized clinical trial found that after one year, mandibular telescopic implant-retained overdentures using milled PEKK secondary copings resulted in crestal bone loss comparable to those using milled titanium copings, establishing PEKK as a viable alternative treatment option.
This study demonstrates that the Pressure Reactivity Index-Daily (PRx-D), a lower-resolution and resource-efficient measure of cerebral autoregulation derived from standard physiological data, is independently associated with unfavorable outcomes and hospital death in children with severe traumatic brain injury.
This study analyzes China's pharmacist workforce from 2007 to 2023, revealing that while inter-provincial equity and overall numbers have improved, the sector faces critical structural challenges including relative workforce contraction, an aging and feminized demographic, a shortage of senior talent, and persistent intra-provincial disparities that necessitate policy shifts toward optimizing structure and clinical capabilities.
This two-cohort MRI study demonstrates that metabolic syndrome is associated with choroid plexus enlargement and white matter hyperintensity abnormalities, which collectively mediate cognitive decline, particularly in processing speed and global cognition.
