Pushing through: A grounded theory of undergraduate nursing students making meaning of clinical-related critical incidents.

Background: Undergraduate nursing students are at risk of exposure to clinical related critical incidents. The impact on nursing students and the use of coping mechanisms and processes to make meaning of these distressing experiences are poorly understood.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to provide a theoretical understanding of the processes that undergraduate nursing students use to make meaning of clinical related critical incidents.

Newer Autoantibodies and Laboratory Assessments in Myositis.

Purpose Of Review: We aim to describe the immunoassays that have been used for myositis autoantibody discovery with a focus on newer methods. We describe recently identified myositis autoantibodies that do not yet form part of routine clinical testing, highlighting what is known about their associated clinical phenotype and potential clues as to their presence.

Recent Findings: Novel approaches to autoantibody detection have been employed in recent years including chemiluminescent immunoassay, phage immunoprecipitation-sequencing and modifications to the more traditional immunoprecipitation technique.

Implementing a Trauma-informed approach in undergraduate nursing student clinical education: Strategies for clinical nurse educators.

Aim: To discuss strategies for clinical nurse educators to integrate a trauma-informed approach while supporting undergraduate nursing students' learning in the clinical environment.

Background: Undergraduate nursing students' risk of exposure to clinical related critical incidents coupled with their higher rates of personal traumas such as adverse childhood experiences, adds to the complexity of experiential learning. Clinical related critical incidents may compromise nursing students' academic abilities and their well-being.

Factors predictive of severe thrombocytopenia and its impact on poor outcomes in Latin American patients with systemic lupus erythematosus: Data from a multiethnic Latin American cohort.

Objective: To examine the predictors of the occurrence of severe thrombocytopenia and its impact on damage accrual and mortality in SLE patients.

Methods: Factors associated with time to severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count ≤20,000/mm) occurring from the onset of SLE symptoms were assessed by Cox proportional hazards regressions. The association of severe thrombocytopenia with mortality was evaluated by logistic regression analyses while its impact on damage was by negative binomial regression.
