Background: Acquisition of evidence-based practice (EBP) competencies in graduate-level nursing programs bridges the research-practice gap in professional practice. This study evaluated the impact of the Star Model of Knowledge Transformation as a framework for course design on graduate-level nursing students' perceived EBP competencies.
Method: Data were collected from 2012 to 2017 (N = 544). Repeated-measures ANOVA was used to analyze pre- and postassessment data over time. Data were collected for each of the five stages or Star Points of EBP competencies.
Results: Significant postcourse improvement in perceived EBP competencies was demonstrated (p ≤ .000) for all Star Points and years. The greatest pre- and postassessment percentage change occurred in the Translation Star Point scores and the least percentage change occurred in Discovery.
Conclusion: These data support the use of intentional course design based on a recognized EBP model to improve perceived EBP competencies in Master of Science in Nursing students. [J Contin Educ Nurs. 2019;50(2):79-86.].

Herein, we investigate the effects of ligand design on the nuclearity and reactivity of metal-ligand multiply bonded (MLMB) complexes to access an exclusively bimetallic reaction pathway for C-H bond functionalization. To this end, the diiron alkoxide [Fe(Dbf)] () was treated with 3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl azide to access the diiron imido complex [Fe(Dbf)(μ-NCHF)] () that promotes hydrogen atom abstraction (HAA) from a variety of C-H and O-H bond containing substrates. A diiron bis(amide) complex [Fe(Dbf)(μ-NHCHF)(NHCHF)] () was generated, prompting the isolation of the analogous bridging amide terminal alkoxide [Fe(Dbf)(μ-NHCHF)(OCH)] () and the asymmetric pyridine-bound diiron imido [Fe(Dbf)(μ-NCHF)(NCH)] ().

Background: In the world of academia, traditional lecturing has been the most common pedagogical approach for centuries. However, it can create an environment for students to be passive learners in the classroom. Alternatively, active learning is a pedagogical approach intended to encourage students to engage with content in manners which have been associated with improved exam performance, final course grades, clinical reasoning skills, and critical thinking skills.

Introduction: Oral health is a crucial factor for service safety among military pilots, but studies specifically on pilots are still very few in Finland. The aim of this study was to assess the oral health status of military student pilots compared to other conscripts of the same age group.
Materials And Methods: The data were collected during the oral health examinations of the annual class of the Pilot Reserve Officer Course students at the beginning of their duty at the Air Force Academy (N = 38).

Background: Fast recovery after cesarean section is vital since the mother not only has to take care of herself but also the newborn. Recovery scores are useful tools to measure and compare recovery; however, standardized questionnaires may miss in-depth patient experiences. What is important to women in the postoperative period after cesarean section can vary in different populations, making it crucial to understand the specific needs of one's own population.
