A Correlational Study on Professional Identity and Self-Efficacy Among Nursing Students.

Aim To conduct a correlational study on professional identity and self-efficacy among nursing students Background Professional identity, in simple terms, refers to how one perceives oneself in relation to one's profession. Self-efficacy is defined as people's self-confidence in facing challenges and breaking through difficulties. A well-developed level of self-efficacy may enhance professional identity.

A Digital Intervention for Capturing the Real-Time Health Data Needed for Epilepsy Seizure Forecasting: Protocol for a Formative Co-Design and Usability Study (The ATMOSPHERE Study).

Background: Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder affecting individuals globally, marked by recurrent and apparently unpredictable seizures that pose significant challenges, including increased mortality, injuries, and diminished quality of life. Despite advancements in treatments, a significant proportion of people with epilepsy continue to experience uncontrolled seizures. The apparent unpredictability of these events has been identified as a major concern for people with epilepsy, highlighting the need for innovative seizure forecasting technologies.

The Antibacterial Effect of Tinospora Cordifolia (Guduchi) and Its Role in Combating Antimicrobial Resistance.

Objective: Tinospora cordifolia, often known as "Guduchi," has a variety of medicinal characteristics, including those that are anti-diabetic, ant-iinflammatory, anti-periodic, anti-arthritic, anti-oxidant, anti-allergic, and anti-stress. Drug development projects face significant obstacles because of the rapid rise in antimicrobial drug resistance in the world healthcare system and the introduction of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains. In order to combat the MDR infections isolated from patients' bodies, the current study was conducted to evaluate and investigate the antibacterial capabilities of Tinospora cordifolia.

Comparing Subjective Similarity of Automated Driving Styles to Objective Distance-Based Similarity.

Objective: This study explores subjective and objective driving style similarity to identify how similarity can be used to develop driver-compatible vehicle automation.

Background: Similarity in the ways that interaction partners perform tasks can be measured subjectively, through questionnaires, or objectively by characterizing each agent's actions. Although subjective measures have advantages in prediction, objective measures are more useful when operationalizing interventions based on these measures.

Understanding cost-utility analysis studies in the trauma and orthopaedic surgery literature.

Cost-utility analysis (CUA) studies are becoming increasingly important due to the need to reduce healthcare spending, especially in the field of trauma and orthopaedics.There is an increasing need for trauma and orthopaedic surgeons to understand these economic evaluations to ensure informed cost-effective decisions can be made to benefit the patient and funding body.This review discusses the fundamental principles required to understand CUA studies in the literature, including a discussion of the different methods employed to assess the health outcomes associated with different management options and the various approaches used to calculate the costs involved.
