Background: Support for diverse nursing students needs to be built into existing peer-mentoring programs to foster success for all students.
Method: Students were intentionally matched in a peer-mentoring program, BUDDY-UP, on several factors, which included students' race and ethnicity (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color [BIPOC]) and gender, and whether they were first-generation.
Results: Mentors and mentees expressed satisfaction and derived benefits from the intentionally matched mentoring program. Participant comments demonstrated that these are not just extra supports but instead are fundamental to their essential everyday needs and ability to be successful both academically and socially.
Conclusion: Incorporating support for all students needs to be a foundational aspect in the development of peer-mentoring programs to support the ability for all students to be successful in nursing education. .

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a 6-month Guolin Qigong on quality of life and serum cortisol among patients with cancer.
Methods: This study was a two-arm and non-randomized controlled trial. Forty-nine patients with cancer who were over 18 years of age and diagnosed with cancer were enrolled in this study and assigned to either the Guolin Qigong intervention group (IG, n = 26) or the usual care group (UC, n = 23) for 6 months.

Objective: Adolescents and young adults with chronic diseases face unique challenges during the college years and may consume alcohol and other substances to cope with stressors. This study aimed to assess the patterns of substance use and to determine psychosocial correlates of these behaviors among college youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Methods: College youth with T1D were recruited via social media and direct outreach into a web-based study.

Purpose: This study describes the experience of parents of children with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) and how the disease impacts their daily lives.
Materials And Methods: A descriptive qualitative study was conducted using purposeful sampling. Twenty-one parents of children with DEEs caused by SCN1A, KCNQ2, CDKL5, PCDH19, and GNAO1 variants were included.

Hemodynamic stabilization is crucial in managing acute cardiac events, where compromised blood flow can lead to severe complications and increased mortality. Conditions like decompensated heart failure (HF) and cardiogenic shock require rapid and effective hemodynamic support. Current mechanical assistive devices, such as intra-aortic balloon pumps (IABP) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), offer temporary stabilization but are limited to short-term use due to risks associated with prolonged blood contact.

Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) offer high energy density and environmental benefits hampered by the shuttle effect related to sluggish redox reactions of long-chain lithium polysulfides (LiPSs). However, the fashion modification of the d-band center in separators is still ineffective, wherein the mechanism understanding always relies on theoretical calculations. This study visibly probed the evolution of the Co 3d-band center during charge and discharge using advanced inverse photoemission spectroscopy/ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (IPES/UPS), which offers reliable evidence and are consistent well with theoretical calculations.
