Objective: evaluate the profile of the graduates of Nursing a public college from the perception of skills developed during graduation and the process of professional insertion.
Method: quantitative, exploratory and descriptive study. The sample was composed of 216 graduates. The data was collected by a validated questionnaire and sent to a population of 470 egresses via electronic mail. For the analysis of the data, frequencies, mean and standard deviation were applied and, for the correlation, the chi-square test.
Results: the majority of the participants were female (88%) and the mean age was 29.62 years. The majority (65%) had an employment relationship, 14% worked in a single institution and 48% started working six months after graduation. Regarding the form of work, 56% work in care, with an average of 4.5 minimum wages and a weekly workload between 37 and 44 hours. The majority reported competence acquisition to practice the profession, assisting the patient in his integrality with ethics and applying technical and scientific concepts in care.
Conclusion: the study made it possible to describe the singularities of nurses' education, their insertion in the world of work and the impact on the educational institution, as well as the presentation of specific competences from the perspective of the graduates themselves.

It is crucial to determine the potential subgroups of sleep disturbances in patients undergoing elective surgery based on the importance of symptom clusters and individual characteristics in order to develop targeted symptom management plans. This study explored the potential categories of postoperative sleep disturbances in patients undergoing elective surgery through latent profile analysis, and explored the influencing factors of each category. A total of 400 eligible elective surgery patients were included in the analysis, and three potential subgroups were identified: mild sleep disturbance group (c1 = 140,35.

Tirzepatide is a first-in-class dual agonist at receptors for glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) for the treatment of T2D and obesity with unprecedented efficacy for glycaemic control and reductions in body weight as well as improvements in blood pressure and lipid profile compared with placebo and GLP-1 receptor agonists. To date, clinical trials of tirzepatide have fulfilled the requirement by regulatory authorities of demonstrated cardiovascular safety in high-risk patients. Whether cardiovascular benefits will be found with dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists remains uncertain, and the contribution of GIP receptor activation to cardiovascular risk has not been established.

Background: In Alzheimer's disease (AD), changes in intestinal microbiota and systemic inflammation are concomitant with neuroinflammation and cognitive decline. This has led to the theory of microbial communities or infections as being causative in the development of neuroinflammation and immunosenescence seen in AD. Our research has demonstrated a decreased taxonomic diversity and an increased abundance of pathobionts in the gut of AD patients (Haran, mBio 2019), which is sufficient to promote amyloid and tau deposition in a mouse model (Chen, Gut 2023).

Department of Biostatistics, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, USA.
The integration of drug molecular representations into predictive models for Drug Response Prediction (DRP) is a standard procedure in pharmaceutical research and development. However, the comparative effectiveness of combining these representations with genetic profiles for DRP remains unclear. This study conducts a comprehensive evaluation of the efficacy of various drug molecular representations employing cutting-edge machine learning models under various experimental settings.
