The effect of end-of-life care awareness education on the knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of intensive care nurses: A randomized controlled trial.

Background: Education in end-of-life care (EoLC) is essential for improving the knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of intensive care nurses.

Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of online awareness education, based on the End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium, on the knowledge levels, attitudes and behaviours of intensive care nurses.

Study Design: This single-centre randomized controlled study.

Fuzzy Logic Model for Determining Optimal Temperature-Humidity Index Values in Dairy Farms in Temperate Climate.

In livestock, temperature, humidity, and Temperature-Humidity Index (THI) affect the welfare, yields, health and viability of animals. This study aimed to develop optimal temperature, humidity, and THI thresholds for dairy farms in temperate climate regions using a fuzzy logic model. THI values were calculated using three different literature-derived equations, considering different temperature and humidity situations in dairy farms.

The investigation of the toxicity of organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs) by using toxicity prediction platform ProTox- 3.0.

From the past to the present, many chemicals have been used for the purpose of flame retardant. Due to PBDEs' (Polybrominated diphenyl ether) lipophilic and accumulative properties, some of them are banned from the market. As an alternative to these chemicals, OPFRs (organophosphorus flame retardants) have started to be used as flame retardants.

Relationship between altered taste and smell with malnutrition among hemodialysis patients.

Introduction: Alterations in taste and smell are among the most distressing symptoms experienced by haemodialysis patients. There is limited research on the relationship between these two symptoms and malnutrition in haemodialysis patients. This study aimed to investigate alterations in taste and smell in hemodialysis patients and their relationship with malnutrition.

Nursing Students' Operating Room Experiences: A Qualitative Metasynthesis.

Purpose: This study was conducted to analyze the findings of qualitative studies about nursing students' experiences with operating room (OR) practices. There is a need to conduct metasynthesis studies to highlight the overarching dimensions of nursing students' experiences in the OR learning environment, identify and summarize key elements, draw attention to the professional implications of the experience, and then help define the future research agenda. This original study is the first metasynthesis of qualitative studies focusing on nursing students' OR practice experiences.
