Aim: The purpose of this study was to explore, analyze, and describe nursing doctoral students' perceptions of factors that impacted them during their doctoral program.
Background: There are two major pathways for nurses to earn a doctoral degree, the most recent of which is the doctor of nursing practice (DNP) degree. Enrollment in and graduates from nursing DNP programs have increased dramatically over the last decade.
Method: Answers to an open-ended question in a national descriptive survey study of nursing doctoral students across the United States were analyzed. Colaizzi's procedural methods were used as a guideline.
Results: The content analysis identified issues unique to DNP students, which related to lack of clarity for the DNP degree and student concerns within academic settings.
Conclusion: Recommendations include having DNP faculty on DNP project committees and for standardization of guidelines for the DNP project to ensure rigor and consistency.

Aim: This survey explored nurse leaders' impressions of burnout on college/school of nursing (CON/SON) administrative staff and leadership-facilitated strategies used to promote resilience building/mitigate burnout.
Background: Administrative staff are foundational to the success of a university's CON/SON, yet few studies have explored the impact of burnout in this group.
Method: Cross-sectional survey distributed to associate dean and business officer attendees of the 2022 American Association of Colleges of Nursing, Business Officers of Nursing Schools meeting (summer 2022) (n = 64).

Importance: The most used overactive bladder (OAB) medications are anticholinergics, which professional societies recommend avoiding in older patients given dementia risk. Cost prevents patients from switching to preferred beta-3 agonists. Mirabegron was the only beta-3 agonist eligible for the Centers for Medicare/Medicaid Services (CMS) 2023 Drug Negotiation Program (DNP).

DNP (3,4-dinitropyrazole) has attracted much interest due to its promising melting characteristics and high detonation performances, such as low melting point, high density, high detonation velocity, and low sensitivity. In this work, first-principles molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to investigate the anisotropic shock response of DNP in conjunction with the multiscale shock technique (MSST). The initial decomposition mechanism was revealed through the evolution of the chemical reaction and product analysis.
