Effectiveness of Simulation-Based, Peer Learning Intervention in Continuing Nursing Education: An Explorative Study.

Background: Despite the vast research by nursing professionals on various methods of nursing education, little research has been conducted exploring the efficacy of peer learning as a teaching-learning tool amongst registered nurses. Hence, this study was conducted among in-service nursing officers to evaluate the usefulness of simulation-based peer learning sessions as an educational tool for capacity building.

Material And Methods: Using a pre-test and post-test design, the study was conducted among 150 in-service nurses at a tertiary care hospital.

Design and implementation of single switch integrated boost and flyback converter for renewable and sustainable energy.

Renewable resources are being explored to meet the increasing energy demand in the world. The development of RES and their integration into the grid necessitate a voltage conversion to match with the grid voltage. This conversion can be implemented using DC-DC converters.

COVID-19 and Preeclampsia: Overlapping Features in Pregnancy.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a global respiratory disease with unique features that have placed all medical professionals in an alarming situation. Preeclampsia is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy affecting 8%-10% of India's pregnant population. Assuming that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) enters host cells through the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, the resulting symptoms are due to vasoconstriction, caused by disturbances in the renin-angiotensin system (RAS).

A Comparative Study of Serum Uric Acid levels and Lipid Ratios in Coronary Artery Disease Patients.

Introduction: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) appears to be common in the Indian population of different geographical origins, religions and languages. Measurement of lipid fractions and ratios are widely recommended for risk assessment. A few studies have shown that serum uric acid plays a role in the development of cardiovascular morbidity.

Role of TSH on Urinary Calcium Excretion In Post Menopausal Women of South Indian Population.

Background: Unforeseen aberrations in the hormonal status during the early postmenopausal period are responsible for several complications including osteoporosis. Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH) receptors are isolated from various tissues including the bone. A low serum TSH level is known to stimulate osteoclastic activity in bone and accelerate bone resorption.
