Introduction: As key healthcare providers, nurses require genomic competency to fulfil their professional obligations in the genomic era. Prior research suggests that nurses have limited competency with genomics-informed practice. Concepts in the Rogers' Diffusion of Innovation (DOI) theory (i.e., knowledge, attitudes, and attributes of innovation adopters) provide a framework to understand the process of adoption of innovations, such as genomics, across organizations. We aim to synthesize what is known about the adoption of genomics across nursing within the DOI framework to identify gaps and opportunities to enact sustained adoption of genomics in nursing.
Methods And Analysis: An integrative literature review, following Whittemore and Knafl's five steps, will be conducted to evaluate qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-method primary studies that meet inclusion and exclusion criteria. The MEDLINE, PsychINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane, and Sociological Abstracts electronic databases will be searched in addition to the ancestry search method. Two researchers will perform independent screening of studies, quality appraisal using the Mixed-Methods Appraisal Tool, and data analysis using the narrative synthesis method. Disagreements will be resolved by a third reviewer. Findings in this review could be used to develop theory- and evidence-informed strategies to support the sustained adoption of genomics in nursing.

Dirofilariasis, caused by the nematode spp., poses significant challenges in diagnosis due to its diverse clinical manifestations and complex life cycle. This comprehensive literature review focuses on the evolution of diagnostic methodologies, spanning from traditional morphological analyses to modern emerging techniques in the context of dirofilariasis diagnosis.

Signals from the lens regulate multiple aspects of eye development, including establishment of eye size, patterning of the presumptive iris and ciliary body in the anterior optic cup and migration and differentiation of neural crest cells. To advance understanding of the molecular mechanism by which the lens regulates eye development, we performed transcriptome profiling of embryonic chicken retinas after lens removal. Genes associated with nervous system development were upregulated in lens-removed eyes, but the presumptive ciliary body and iris region did not adopt a neural retina identity following lens removal.

Background: Ulcerative colitis (UC), an inflammatory disease characterized by intestinal barrier dysfunction, poses significant challenges because of the toxicity and adverse effects commonly associated with conventional therapies. Safer and more efficacious treatment strategies are needed.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to treat UC with Folium Artemisiae Argyi exosome-like nanovesicles (FAELNs) and to explore its related mechanism to provide a safer and more effective means for the treatment of ulcerative colitis.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder. Antiamyloid antibody treatments modestly slow disease progression in mild dementia due to AD. Emerging evidence shows that homeostatic dysregulation of the brain immune system, especially that orchestrated by microglia, plays an important role in disease onset and progression.

The rapid increase in the number of reference-quality genome assemblies presents significant new opportunities for genomic research. However, the absence of standardized naming conventions for genome assemblies and annotations across datasets creates substantial challenges. Inconsistent naming hinders the identification of correct assemblies, complicates the integration of bioinformatics pipelines, and makes it difficult to link assemblies across multiple resources.
