LLM-Driven Synthesis Planning for Quantum Dot Materials Development.

The application of large language models in materials science has opened new avenues for accelerating materials development. Building on this advancement, we propose a novel framework leveraging large language models to optimize experimental procedures for synthesizing quantum dot materials with multiple desired properties. Our framework integrates the synthesis protocol generation model and the property prediction model, both fine-tuned on open-source large language models using parameter-efficient training techniques with in-house synthesis protocol data.

Effectiveness of a cognitive behavioral therapy program in stroke patients in the Republic of Korea: a mixed-methods study.

Background: This study aimed to explore the effects of a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program on stroke patients, as well as their experiences participating in the program.

Methods: This study employed a mixed-methods design, integrating qualitative case studies with quantitative analysis. We included 20 stroke patients, randomly divided into 2 groups of 10 each: an experimental group and a control group.

The Effect of Virtual Presence and Self-Efficacy on Nursing Students' Evaluation of Virtual Simulation Training.

The study aims to determine the effect of virtual simulation practice in nursing students using the Virtual Patient Learning System Evaluation (VPLSE) tool. The study uses descriptive research, centering on correlation and regression analysis. 295 nursing students in Grades 3 and 4 who have experienced virtual simulation practice within the past year were included.

Effects of Combining Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Bilateral Upper Limb Training in Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

CBT has a beneficial effect on depression and anxiety; however, the number of cases where therapy was used in patients with stroke was rare. In addition, there is still a lack of research on the effects of occupation-based training and the effects of bilateral upper limb training that provides an intervention based on patients' state of hemiplegic upper limb function. This study investigated the effects of combining CBT and occupation-based bilateral upper limb training on the depression, anxiety, upper limb function, and occupational performance.

Relationships among Perceptions of Dying Well, Attitudes toward Advance Directives, and Preferences for Advance Directives among Elderly Living Alone.

Purpose: This study investigated awareness of dying well, as well as attitudes and preferences toward advance directives (ADs), among elderly individuals who lived alone.

Methods: The participants were 173 elderly people living alone. Data were collected from July 2019 to September 2019 using questionnaires on perceptions of dying well, awareness of advance directives, and general characteristics.

A meta-analysis of the variables related to job satisfaction among Korean nurses.

Background: The shortage of nursing workforce has been a critical and global issue and associated with job satisfaction.

Objectives: To evaluate the strength of the relationships between job satisfaction and organizational commitment, job stress, and turnover intention among Korean nurses.

Methods: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses; Korean Education & Research Information Service, KISS, DB pia, PubMed, and CINAHL databases were searched.

[Effects of Learning Activities on Application of Learning Portfolio in Nursing Management Course].

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine effects of a learning portfolio by identifying the learning of nursing students taking a learning portfolio-utilized nursing management class.

Methods: A non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. Participants were 83 senior students taking the nursing management course in one of the Departments of Nursing at 2 Universities.

[Structural Equation Modeling on Living and Brain Death Organ Donation Intention in Nursing Students].

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test and validate a model to predict living and brain death organ donation intention in nursing students. The conceptual model was based on the theory planned behavior.

Methods: Quota sampling methodology was used to recruit 921 nursing students from all over the country and data collection was done from October 1 to December 20, 2013.

Results of a community vision-screening program using the Spot photoscreener.

Purpose: To describe the results of vision screenings performed with the Spot photoscreener in the community setting.

Methods: Low-income, predominantly Hispanic children in day care and preschool settings were screened by lay operators using the Spot photoscreener. Inclusion criteria were age 6-72 months and availability of a complete photoscreening record.

Sodium Bicarbonate Solution versus Chlorhexidine Mouthwash in Oral Care of Acute Leukemia Patients Undergoing Induction Chemotherapy: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to compare the effectiveness of sodium bicarbonate (SB) solution with chlorhexidine (CHX) mouthwash in oral care of acute leukemia patients under induction chemotherapy.

Methods: Forty-eight patients were randomly selected and assigned to an SB solution group or CHX-based product group according to acute myelogenous leukemia or acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Patients were asked to rinse their mouth four times a day from the day before chemotherapy started until discharge.

Emergence of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains as a cause of healthcare-associated bloodstream infections in Korea.

Background: The prevalence of community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) strains causing bloodstream infection (BSI) has not been studied in Korea.

Objective: We sought to determine the prevalence of CA-MRSA strains among isolates recovered from patients with MRSA BSIs and to explore epidemiological changes in Korea. We also sought to evaluate clinical characteristics relevant to the development of healthcare-associated BSIs.
