Focus group discussions with four generations of staff nurses identified five themes that participants believed must be addressed in order to make the current work environment a desirable place to conduct their careers as nurses. These themes are: transitioning from student to nurse, managing difficult staffing conditions, maintaining morale, dealing with safety matters, and building relationships that enhance teamwork. Manager challenges are discussed in relation to each theme and suggested leadership strategies are offered.

Self-sovereign management scheme of personal health record with personal data store and decentralized identifier.
Comput Struct Biotechnol J
November 2024
Intellicode Cooperation, Republic of Korea.
Conventional personal health record (PHR) management systems are centralized, making them vulnerable to privacy breaches and single points of failure. Despite progress in standardizing healthcare data with the FHIR format, hospitals often lack efficient platforms for transferring PHRs, leading to redundant tests and delayed treatments. To address these challenges, we propose a decentralized PHR management system leveraging Personal Data Stores (PDS) and Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) in line with the Web 3.

Background: Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a significant complication in chronic kidney disease (CKD), leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Early detection is essential for managing CKD patients effectively, especially those on hemodialysis. This study evaluated the prevalence CAN in CKD and diagnostic accuracy of Bellavere's Score in predicting CAN in CKD patients, including those undergoing hemodialysis.

Obesity is a rapidly growing health problem worldwide, affecting both adults and children and increasing the risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes, hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition, obesity is closely linked to chronic kidney disease (CKD) by either exacerbating diabetic complications or directly causing kidney damage. Obesity-related CKD is characterized by proteinuria, lipid accumulation, fibrosis and glomerulosclerosis, which can gradually impair kidney function.
