Diagnostic models (DM) have been widely used to classify respondents' latent attributes in cognitive and non-cognitive assessments. The integration of response times (RTs) with DM presents additional evidence to understand respondents' problem-solving behaviours. While recent research has explored using sparse latent class models (SLCM) to infer the latent structure of items based on item responses, the incorporation of RT data within these models remains underexplored.

Objective: We aim to elucidate the impact of prolonged surveillance and intraoperative frozen margins on IP recurrence.
Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of patients who underwent resection of IP at a tertiary care center over a 10-year period from 2008 to 2018 followed by subsequent surveillance.
Background: The evolving nature of nursing practice necessitates the development and implementation of contemporary models of care; however, inconsistent definitions hinder this. With the increasing demand for nurse-led models of care, it is crucial to establish a consistent understanding to ensure the efficacy of implemented models.
Aim: We aim to provide a working definition for nursing models of care, then using this, present the key features that nurse-led models of care should consider.
In an effort to expedite the publication of articles, AJHP is posting manuscripts online as soon as possible after acceptance. Accepted manuscripts have been peer-reviewed and copyedited, but are posted online before technical formatting and author proofing. These manuscripts are not the final version of record and will be replaced with the final article (formatted per AJHP style and proofed by the authors) at a later time.
