[International exchange program for anesthesia nursing students : Retrospective analysis of sustainable evaluation criteria].

Background And Aim: Anesthesia nursing students have little contact with relevant global contexts of their professional practice and health care as a whole. An international exchange program between a German postgraduate institution and a US university focuses on this global perspective and provides insights into each other's healthcare systems. The article offers insight into a successful international exchange program and analyzes possible evaluation criteria for the program.

The effectiveness of ERAS guidelines in reducing postoperative pain.

Background: Poorly controlled acute postsurgical pain can promote chronic opioid use and misuse long after the initial surgical procedure. Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) guidelines have shown promise in reducing opioid exposure and minimizing opioid-related side effects.

Aims: The aims of this evidence-based practice (EBP) project were to assess the ERAS literature to guide postoperative pain management practice change at an adult colorectal surgical unit, evaluate the practice change outcomes, and disseminate the findings.

Behavioral and neurobiological effects of GnRH agonist treatment in mice-potential implications for puberty suppression in transgender individuals.

In the United States, ~1.4 million individuals identify as transgender. Many transgender adolescents experience gender dysphoria related to incongruence between their gender identity and sex assigned at birth.

Hippocampal neurogenesis confers stress resilience by inhibiting the ventral dentate gyrus.

Adult neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus is highly regulated by environmental influences, and functionally implicated in behavioural responses to stress and antidepressants. However, how adult-born neurons regulate dentate gyrus information processing to protect from stress-induced anxiety-like behaviour is unknown. Here we show in mice that neurogenesis confers resilience to chronic stress by inhibiting the activity of mature granule cells in the ventral dentate gyrus (vDG), a subregion that is implicated in mood regulation.
