Background: This project aimed to develop an evidence-based nursing care bundle after gastrostomy feeding tube insertion and implement it into clinical practice using the Knowledge to Action (KTA) framework.
Methods: This mixed-method design project was conducted in a university hospital between December 2021 and June 2022. The project was carried out in four phases: (1) development of an evidence-based care bundle, (2) education for care bundle training, (3) implementation of the care bundle, (4) evaluation of the care bundle.

Background: A 12-month cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) demonstrated the effectiveness of an application-based education program in reducing the salt intake and systolic blood pressure (SBP) of schoolchildren's adult family members. This study aimed to assess whether the effect at 12 months persisted at 24 months.
Methods: Fifty-four schools were randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group.

Purpose: To investigate image quality and agreement of derived cardiac function parameters in a novel joint image reconstruction and segmentation approach based on disentangled representation learning, enabling real-time cardiac cine imaging during free-breathing.
Methods: A multi-tasking neural network architecture, incorporating disentangled representation learning, was trained using simulated examinations based on data from a public repository along with MR scans specifically acquired for model development. An exploratory feasibility study evaluated the method on undersampled real-time acquisitions using an in-house developed spiral bSSFP pulse sequence in eight healthy participants and five patients with intermittent atrial fibrillation.

Microbiota encompasses a diverse array of microorganisms inhabiting specific ecological niches. Gut microbiota significantly influences physiological processes, including gastrointestinal motor function, neuroendocrine signalling, and immune regulation. They play a crucial role in modulating the central nervous system and bolstering body defence mechanisms by influencing the proliferation and differentiation of innate and adaptive immune cells.

This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effects of educational and psychological interventions on the health outcomes of patients suffering from chronic diseases. We recruited 372 patients and randomly assigned them to one of two intervention arms during the trial, which lasted for a year. Both groups participated in a 12-month intervention program, where the intervention group received health education and supportive psychological therapy utilizing virtual reality (VR) technology, while the control group received conventional health education guidance.
