Background And Purpose: Dialysis involves a complex regimen including diet, fluid, medication, and treatment. Therapeutic regimen adherence determines the therapeutic success, quality of life, and survival of patients on dialysis. Complying with fluid management is the most difficult among the therapeutic regimen. Several theory-based interventions have been designed to promote fluid intake compliance in patients receiving dialysis. This review has two aims. One is to explore the effectiveness of theory-based interventions. The other is to examine the extent of the combination of theory and interventions in improving adherence to fluid intake among dialysis patients.
Methods: A literature review was performed using PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to acquire associated studies. Data were extracted independently by two researchers. The degree of theory application was accessed using a theory coding scheme (TCS).
Results: Eight studies were identified as eligible for inclusion, and five theories were cited as basis (health belief model, social cognitive theory, self-regulation model, transtheoretical model). According to the TCS, adherence outcomes and the extent of theory use were not optimal.
Implications For Practice: Combining theory with patient health education might be beneficial in improving fluid intake adherence of dialysis patients. The framework and TCS could be considered to guide theory utilization and promote nursing education in improving the quality of renal nursing care.

The aim of this study was to explore an improved method for extracting rat cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), observing the impact on animal health under conditions of large-scale CSF collection and evaluating the feasibility of repeated collections. A total of 20 rats were anesthetized and fixed in a stereotactic frame. A 26G scalp needle, combined with a 1 mL syringe, was used to puncture the atlanto-occipital membrane and collect approximately 170 μL of CSF.

Background: Ramadan during pregnancy is associated with adverse offspring health outcomes. Recent evidence from Europe indicates that maternal diet during non-fasting hours might alleviate these effects. This study describes fasting, diet, and sleep habits among pregnant Muslims in Kaduna, Nigeria, and assesses impacts on neonatal health in this setting.

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers occurring globally. Surgery for CRC often extends hospital stays due to complications, as patients must meet nutritional needs and regain mobility before discharge. Longer hospital stays, required for extended monitoring and care, can increase the risk of further complications, creating a cycle where extended stays lead to more issues.
