Objective: Aims of this study were to identify the Association of Community/Public Health Nursing Educators members' demographics, educational preparation, and research competencies; and, to complete a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis.
Methods: A descriptive-correlational design was employed. Primary data collection was via electronic survey. Authors developed a survey focusing on demographics and aligning Benner's theory with research skills/experience. SWOT and gap analyses were performed.
Results: A 27.2% response rate (N = 352) revealed a lack of diversity among 70% doctorally prepared membership, perceived competence with interprofessional collaboration (80%), and applying research to practice (80%). Doctorally prepared members reported experience using longitudinal designs (p = .05). PhD-prepared members reported experience using psychometrics and evaluations (p = .05). SWOT revealed a lack of service engagement. Gap analysis offered solutions to execute strategic goals.
Conclusions: Association of Community/Public Health Nursing Educators may enhance future direction by advancing member diversity, professional development, collaborative scholarship, and mentoring.

College of Medicine and Health Sciences, Wollo University, P.O. Box 1145, Dessie, Ethiopia.
Background: Rabies is an important worldwide viral zoonotic disease with a high fatality rate and substantial socioeconomic losses. There is limited information about the community's knowledge, attitude and practice towards rabies disease in the study area. Therefore, this study was intended to assess knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) and associated factors towards rabies among the community in Welkait district, Northwest Ethiopia.

Article Synopsis
- Southeast Asian countries have faced rising dengue cases, highlighting the need for effective public health measures, particularly in Southern Thailand, where a school-based dengue prevention model was developed.
- A community participatory action research approach was used to engage high school students and gather both quantitative and qualitative data on the effectiveness of the intervention.
- Results showed a significant increase in students' understanding of dengue and community health responsibilities, with factors like gender and education level influencing their engagement in the program.
Examining the Role of Posttraumatic Stress and Depressive Symptoms in HIV Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Motivation Among Women Survivors of Intimate Partner Violence.

Department of Mental Health, Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how PTSD and major depressive disorder (MDD) symptoms affect HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) motivation among women who have survived intimate partner violence (IPV).
- Researchers analyzed data from 285 women in Baltimore and New Haven, identifying six distinct profiles based on their PTSD and MDD symptoms.
- The findings suggest that women with very low symptoms of both PTSD and depression were less likely to advance in the PrEP Motivational Cascade compared to those with higher symptoms, indicating that mental health significantly impacts PrEP motivation.
Transcription and Copy Number Variation of Plasmodium falciparum var2csa among Nonpregnant Malaria Patients in Thailand.

Placental malaria is an important cause of fetomaternal morbidity and mortality among pregnant women infected with Plasmodium falciparum. The pathogenesis involves the binding of VAR2CSA on the surface of infected erythrocytes to chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans on syncytiotrophoblasts in the intervillous space of the placenta. Anti-VAR2CSA antibodies confer protection from adverse pregnancy outcomes in falciparum malaria; therefore, VAR2CSA is a strong vaccine candidate against placental malaria.

G Protein-Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) are integral membrane proteins that have gained considerable attention as drug targets, particularly in cancer treatment. In this study, we explored the capacity of bioactive compounds derived from Gnetum gnemon (GG) for the development of of pharmaceuticals targeting GPCRs within the context of cancer therapy. Integrated approach combined network pharmacology and molecular docking to identify and validate the underlying pharmacological mechanisms.
