Preconception Care: A Concept Analysis of an Evolving Paradigm.

J Adv Nurs

January 2025

College of Health Sciences, Faculty of Nursing, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.

Aim(s): To clarify the concept of preconception care and develop a precise and inclusive definition to improve its implementation and impact on reproductive health outcomes.

Design: This concept analysis paper employs Rodgers' evolutionary method to analyse the concept of preconception care, examining its historical evolution, attributes, antecedents and consequences.

Methods: A comprehensive literature review was conducted using databases such as Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Scopus, MEDLINE and Google Scholar, covering publications from 2012 to 2024.

Purpose: This purpose of this article was to use the method of conceptual history to analyze the evolution of the concept of "validity" in nursing diagnoses and to identify key transformations, theoretical influences, and implications for contemporary clinical judgment and decision-making.

Methods: Five stages derivate from the approach proposed by Reinhart Koselleck, including: identify the concept and its relevance, historical contextualization, contextual use, semantic changes over time, and synthesis and interpretation.

Findings: The concept of "validity" in nursing diagnoses is essential for accurate diagnostics, interdisciplinary communication, and evidence-based decision-making, though its interpretation varies due to differing philosophical perspectives and methodological challenges.

No hospitalizations or deaths occurred in residents with the COVID-19 infection, treated with antihistamines and azithromycin, of two external nursing homes during the first wave. We assessed whether patients receiving chronic antihistamines in our institution showed better clinical evolution. COVID-19 admissions and related deaths in the public Hospital of Terrassa ( = 1461) during the pandemic period (11 March 2020-5 May 2023) and cases ( = 32,888) during the period of full suspicion diagnosis (1 June 2020-23 March 2022) were referred to as the number of chronic treatments (nT) including or not including antihistamines (AntiHm or NOAntiHm), and their vaccination status before the first infection (VAC or NoVAC) in our assigned population ( = 140,681 at March 2020) was recorded.

Retrotransposon Gag-like 4 (), a gene acquired from a retrovirus, is a causative gene in autism spectrum disorder. Its knockout mice exhibit increased impulsivity, impaired short-term spatial memory, failure to adapt to novel environments, and delayed noradrenaline (NA) recovery in the frontal cortex. However, due to its very low expression in the brain, it remains unknown which brain cells express RTL4 and its dynamics in relation to NA.

Sexual and Metabolic Differences in Hippocampal Evolution: Alzheimer's Disease Implications.

Life (Basel)

November 2024

Experimental and Clinical Physiopathology Research Group CTS-1039, Department of Health Sciences, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Jaen, Las Lagunillas University Campus, 23009 Jaen, Spain.

Sex differences in brain metabolism and their relationship to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's are an important emerging topic in neuroscience. Intrinsic anatomic and metabolic differences related to male and female physiology have been described, underscoring the importance of considering biological sex in studying brain metabolism and associated pathologies. The hippocampus is a key structure exhibiting sex differences in volume and connectivity.
