This systematic review investigates the utilization and reporting of frameworks to guide process evaluations (PE) of diabetes self-management programmes (DSMPs). Constituting a subset of articles from a previously published systematic review, seven studies, comprising nine articles, met the inclusion criteria. The diff…

Polysulphone film is used as a personal UV dosemeter in dermatological or epidemiological studies. The relative efficiency of this detector does not exactly match the action spectrum as proposed by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) and to which the UV dose and exposure limits re…

Self-control development in children and adolescents is shaped by both genetic and environmental influences, yet little is known about how these factors interact across developmental stages. This two-wave longitudinal study investigated the interplay between the DRD2 gene rs1799732 polymorphism and negative parenting i…

Social workers support youth in schools, but there is a lack of research that explores the supports that are offered to these helpers. Research suggests workplace coping resources for social workers in other environments that may help buffer the effects of stress; however, there is a significant lack of research on the…

Understanding what Latino church leaders believe about domestic violence, and what they do when they confront it, is a key step in developing programs to help them engage in domestic violence prevention and intervention activities in their congregations. This article presents the findings from an exploratory study of 2…

New data strongly suggest that the routine practice of administering i.v. fluids in trauma patients before transport to the hospital may do more harm than good. The study's lead author suggests that ED leaders have a strong role to play in changing a decades-old protocol that was implemented without sufficient scientif…

The present study replicated Van den Broek and Bradshaw's (1994) study by developing a multiple regression equation to predict Ravens Standard Progressive Matrices (RSPM) scores from participants' National Adult Reading Test (NART) scores and demographic variables. A test of the validity of this procedure was undertake…

Pelvic floor disorders (PFD), including Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP), can negatively impact a woman's daily activities and quality of life. POP is a growing concern, with an increasing number of cases each year and significant numbers of women going through surgery to alleviate it. Traditional interventions like the use…

Strawberries are a favorite fruit for most people, but the residues of pesticides on strawberries might be risky to human health. Tebufenpyrad and milbemectin are broad-spectrum acaricides with insecticide properties authorized for use on strawberries in Egypt. As a result, it is crucial to investigate their residues i…

AIM: The aims were to (1) describe nurses' attitudes towards their jobs, (2) identify factors that contribute to nurses' job attitudes and (3) examine how nurses' job attitudes affect their ability to perform their jobs. BACKGROUND: Nurses' job attitudes affect their ability to do their jobs well. METHODS: This was a…

Due to the scarcity of water supplies, coastal groundwater quality most importantly influences sustainable development in the coastal region. Rising groundwater pollution through heavy metal contamination is an intense health hazard and environmental concern worldwide. This study shows that 27%, 32%, and 10% of the tot…

The public image of nursing is important because it can facilitate or create barriers to achieving an adequate supply of nursing human resources. This study sought to gain a better understanding of nursing's professional image within the Republic of Georgia. The Nursing Human Resources Systems model was used to guide t…

OBJECTIVE: In survival analysis, "baseline immeasurable" time-dependent factors cannot be recorded at baseline, and change value after patient observation starts. Time-dependent bias can occur if such variables are not analyzed appropriately. This study sought to determine the prevalence of such time-dependent bias in…

Regulated dicarboxylate transport is critical for acid-base homeostasis, prevention of calcium nephrolithiasis, regulation of collecting duct sodium chloride transport, and the regulation of blood pressure. Although luminal dicarboxylate reabsorption via NaDC1 (SLC13A2) is believed to be the primary mechanism regulatin…

UNLABELLED: Urbanisation has increasingly encroached on numerous bird species' natural habitats, generally negatively affecting their persistence. Furthermore, increased human-wildlife interactions may benefit or be detrimental to the long term persistence of these species. The Spotted Thick-knee (), a ground-nesting s…

By developing its first Feminist International Assistance policy, Canada has positioned itself as an international feminist and diverse SOGIESC rights leader. However, the scarcity of references to sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC) has raised questions on how thes…

The study's objective is to establish an eco-friendly, sensitive and economical quantitative methodology for the concurrent analysis of donepezil HCl (DPZ) and trazodone HCl (TRZ) in raw materials, tablets and human plasma. The first derivative synchronous fluorescence spectroscopic (FDSFS) technique was applied at con…

In June 2021, a condominium in Florida collapsed, with the loss of 98 lives. Search and rescue teams spent 2 weeks, recovering the victims.
