Knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of student nurses regarding community activities in primary care: A cross-sectional study.

Objective: To ascertain student nurses' degree of knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions regarding the implementation of community activities (CA) in primary care.

Design: Questionnaire-based cross-sectional study.

Sample: The study was conducted with 152 students seeking a nursing degree at the University of Santiago de Compostela (North Spain) in the 2022/2023 academic year.

High-throughput Analysis of Capillary Density in Skeletal Muscle Cross Sections.

Capillary density in skeletal muscles is key to estimate exercise capacity in healthy individuals, athletes, and those with muscle-related pathologies. Here, we present a step-by-step, high-throughput semi-automated method for quantifying capillary density from whole human skeletal muscle cross-sections, in areas of the muscle occupied by myofibers. We provide a detailed protocol for immunofluorescence staining, image acquisition, processing, and quantification.

The impact of genetic background during laboratory evolution of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a cystic fibrosis-like environment.

Genetic background has the potential to influence both the tempo and trajectory of adaptive change: Different genotypes of a given species may adopt varied solutions to the same environmental challenge, or they may approach the same solution at different rates. Laboratory selection has been widely used to experimentally examine the evolutionary consequences of variation in genetic background, although largely using genotypes differing by only a few mutations. Here, we leverage natural variation in the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa to investigate whether different adaptive solutions are accessible from distant points of departure on an adaptive landscape.

A Scoping Review of the Psychological and Emotional Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Children and Young People.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in many changes to the lives of children and young people. Our aim is to explore the impact of the pandemic on the mental health of children and young people (ages 5-21).

Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was used to report the findings of this rapid review.
