Perceptions of the ability to efficiently utilise the full scope of midwifery practice in the newly introduced midwifery profession in Nepal.

Aim: To explore the readiness of Bachelor in Midwifery graduates in Nepal to provide midwifery care aligned with the definition competently on graduation and to identify barriers affecting their practice.

Background: Nepal has introduced an internationally standardised BSc midwifery education programme designed to enable midwives to work competently and independently in midwifery care on entering the profession.

Design: A qualitative interview study was conducted and analysed using inductive content analysis.

Digital humanistic program to manage premature frailty in young breast cancer survivors with gender perspective.

Premature frailty is a critical challenge for young breast cancer survivors (YBCSs), impacting their health and perpetuating gender inequality through heightened vulnerability and marginalization. While digital health shows promise in frailty screening, its effectiveness for comprehensively managing frailty remains inconclusive. This randomized controlled trial, registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2200058823), tests the "AI-TA" program's efficacy on premature frailty and quality of life in YBCSs.

An improved matrix deposition technique for thin layer chromatography coupled to MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (TLC-MALDI).

Analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) is a simple yet powerful chromatographic technique that is widely used for the qualitative characterization of complex mixtures such as plant extracts. For their qualitative and visual characterisation, a large number of more or less specific colour reactions are at hand and numerous reference substances are available as well. However, the identification of extract components by colour and the comparison of retention times is not straightforward.

Toward an Asian-based bodily movement database for emotional communication.

Most current databases for bodily emotion expression are created in Western countries, resulting in culturally skewed representations. To address the obvious risk this bias poses to academic comprehension, we attempted to expand the current repertoire of human bodily emotions by recruiting Asian professional performers to wear whole-body suits with 57 retroreflective markers attached to major joints and body segments, and express seven basic emotions with whole-body movements in a motion-capture lab. For each emotion, actors performed three self-created scenarios that covered a broad range of real-life events to elicit the target emotion within 2-5 seconds.
