Lately, individualized nursing care and patient satisfaction are important and current issues being discussed. But there is not enough information for patients undergoing orthopaedic surgery. The aim of this study was to determine the individualized care perception and satisfaction in nursing care levels in orthopaedic surgery patients. This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with 156 patients who underwent orthopaedic surgery. Data were collected using the personal information form, the Individualized Care Scale, and the Newcastle Satisfaction With Nursing Scale. The Spearman correlation analysis and descriptive statistics were performed. The mean individualized care and satisfaction with nursing care scores were found to be close to the preset maximum value, and it was determined that an increase in the level of awareness about nursing interventions and the level of perceived individualized care caused an increase in satisfaction levels regarding nursing care. Nurses should recognize the importance of performing individualized care in order to increase the level of satisfaction with nursing care in orthopaedic surgery patients.

Objective: To enhance our understanding of the processes of change and the interaction of symptoms, we applied a relatively novel method known as Dynamic Time Warp to data from low-threshold internet-based interventions directed at decreasing eating disorder (ED) symptoms and increasing help-seeking.

Method: Utilizing data from the Featback study, we examined how various factors such as ED psychopathology, binge eating, vomiting, laxative use, BMI, anxiety, depression, self-efficacy, social support, well-being, and health-related quality of life interplayed over a period of 14 months among 355 individuals at six different time points. Moreover, we explored which symptoms exerted a significant temporal relationship on others (with high out-strength) and which were most affected by other symptoms (with high in-strength).

Despite this, and the disproportionately high burden of early onset and late-stage CRC cases, no CRC screening program exists in Uganda. To guide and inform future CRC prevention efforts, interviews with key stakeholders were undertaken to better understand the perceived barriers and opportunities relevant to the development and implementation of a CRC screening program in Uganda.

Aims: To examine the risk of perinatal mental illness, including new diagnoses and recurrent use of mental healthcare, comparing women with and without traumatic brain injury (TBI), and to identify injury-related factors associated with these outcomes among women with TBI.

Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study in Ontario, Canada, of all obstetrical deliveries to women in 2012-2021, excluding those with mental healthcare use in the year before conception. The cohort was stratified into women with no remote mental illness history (to identify new mental illness diagnoses between conception and 365 days postpartum) and those with a remote mental illness history (to identify recurrent illnesses).
