Taking into account the literature on technology acceptance and adoption, this study aimed to investigate the mediating role of adoption readiness, which was built on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), on the relationship between perceived anxiety and attitude toward using the system. This research also evaluated demographic variations and gender roles that could be considered when developing technology-use strategies. In a nutshell, this research looked into the negative and positive effects of technology integration through UTAUT's Correctional Database System (CDS). A survey was used to gather information from 230 middle managers whose responsibility is to manage information system database in correctional institutions. The data were then analyzed with SmartPLS 3 Software. The findings revealed that perceived anxiety has a significant effect on attitude toward using database management system and adoption readiness. Whereas adoption readiness could mediate perceived anxiety and attitude toward using database management system. However, gender was not proven to moderate the effect of adoption readiness on attitude toward using a database management system. This study provided a thorough grasp of both the supports that can help individuals develop positive attitudes toward an application system and the challenges that can obstruct the process. This study also gave an understanding that correctional institutions need to ascertain the middle managers that database management systems can be used easily and can overcome errors caused by human error.

Clinical Readiness for Practice of Nursing Students: A Concept Analysis.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
November 2024
College of Nursing, Brain Korea 21 FOUR Project, Mo-Im Kim Institute, Yonsei University, Seoul 03722, Republic of Korea.
Introduction: The concept of clinical readiness for practice among nursing students is yet to be analyzed, and there is a lack of empirical evidence on its usage among academics and clinicians.
Methods: This concept analysis is anchored on a systematic literature review that adhered to the PRISMA guidelines and incorporated the eight iterative steps of Walker and Avant's concept analysis method. This concept analysis method involved: (1) choosing a concept; (2) determining the objectives of the analysis; (3) identifying usages of the concept; (4) determining the defining attributes; (5) identifying a model case; (6) identifying other cases, including borderline, contrary, and related cases; (7) identifying antecedents and consequences; and (8) defining empirical references.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains a leading global health concern, with atherosclerosis being its principal cause. Standard CVD treatments primarily focus on mitigating cardiovascular (CV) risk factors through lifestyle changes and cholesterol-lowering therapies. As atherosclerosis is marked by chronic arterial inflammation, the innate and adaptive immune systems play vital roles in its progression, either exacerbating or alleviating disease development.

Investigating digital determinants shaping pharmacists' preparedness for interoperability and health informatics practice evolution: a systematic review.
Int J Clin Pharm
January 2025
Pharmacy Practice and Pharmacotherapeutics Department, College of Pharmacy, University of Sharjah, Sharjah, United Arab Emirates.
Background: Fragmented healthcare systems hinder pharmacists' access to comprehensive patient data, limiting their clinical role and posing health risks. Enhancing system interoperability and evaluating factors influencing pharmacists' readiness for technology-driven practice change is a crucial step.
Aim: This systematic review aimed to investigate the digital determinants of pharmacists' readiness for technology-oriented practice change and interoperability.
The increasing availability of coarse-scale climate simulations and the need for ready-to-use high-resolution variables drive the climate community to the challenge of reducing computational resources and time for downscaling purposes. To this end, statistical downscaling is gaining interest as a potential strategy for integrating high-resolution climate information obtained through dynamical downscaling over limited years, providing a clear understanding of the gains and losses in combining dynamical and statistical downscaling. In this regard, several questions can be raised: (i) what is the performance of statistical downscaling, assuming dynamical downscaling as a reference over a shared time window; (ii) how much the performance of statistical downscaling is affected by changes in the number of years available for training; (iii) how does the climate normal considered for the training affect the predictions.
