Latent classes of learners in people with type 2 diabetes, stratified by educational status: A cross-sectional study.

Objective: Research suggests that people with type 2 diabetes (PWT2D) exhibit different approaches to learning about disease-management. This study's aims to identify distinct learner groups among PWT2D and stratify them by educational status (ES).

Methods: Cross-sectional data from 227 PWT2D, collected through 46 Likert-scale questions on learning behaviors, preferences, and attitudes, were analyzed using latent class analysis, to identify learner groups.

User profiles in digitalized healthcare: active, potential, and rejecting - a cross-sectional study using latent class analysis.

Rocuronium Reversal in the Emergency Department: Retrospective Evaluation of Hemodynamic Instability Following Administration of Sugammadex Versus Neostigmine With Glycopyrrolate.

Rocuronium is an intermediate-acting non-depolarizing neuromuscular blocking agent frequently used in the emergency department for rapid sequence intubation. The prolonged effects of rocuronium may prevent the ability to conduct a meaningful neurological examination, thereby delaying appropriate diagnosis and treatment. Sugammadex and neostigmine are pharmacologic agents commonly used to reverse rocuronium.

Comparison of various continence definitions in a large group of patients undergoing radical prostatectomy: a multicentre, prospective study.

Background: Due to the usage of various measurement methods and definitions, comparing continence rates after radical prostatectomy is a challenging task. This study compares continence rates based on different methods and aims to identify the definition for continence which agrees best with the patients' subjective assessment of continence. Additionally, continence was controlled for multiple influencing factors.
