Aim: The aim of the study was to examine the profile of male students in accelerated nursing education programs (ANEPs) focusing on key demographic, educational, and outcome variables and compare male and female students on these variables.
Background: Though ANEPs have proliferated over the last two decades, there has been little study of students enrolled in these programs and, consequently, the role ANEPs could play in enhancing nursing workforce diversity.
Method: This study is a secondary analysis of data collected from 3,502 students who participated in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation New Careers in Nursing Program from 2008 to 2016.
Results: ANEP completion and NCLEX-RN success rates were strong overall. Male and female ANEP students differed on several dimensions often associated with academic success, differences that have relevance for purposes of teaching, research, and program planning.
Conclusion: ANEPs could be an effective mechanism for increasing the gender, racial, and ethnic diversity of the nursing workforce.

The intestinal microbiota is a key environmental factor in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). Here, we report that, in the context of mild colonic inflammation, the microbiota protects against colorectal tumorigenesis in mice. This protection is achieved by microbial suppression of the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) Snhg9.

Background: Achilles tendon rupture is a common orthopedic injury, with an annual incidence of 11-37 per 100000 people, significantly impacting daily life. Minimally invasive surgery, increasingly favored for its reduced risks and comparable fixation strength to open surgery, addresses these challenges. Despite advantages like accelerated recovery, perioperative care poses emotional support, pain management, and rehabilitation challenges, impacting treatment efficacy and patient experience.

Atherosclerotic vascular changes can begin during childhood, providing risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) in adulthood. Identifiable risk factors such as dyslipidemia accelerate this process for some children. The apolipoprotein B (APOB) gene could help explain the inter-individual variability in lipid levels among young individuals and identify groups that require greater attention to prevent CVD.
