Debriefing Methodologies in Nursing Simulation: An Exploratory Study of the Italian Settings.
Nurs Rep
December 2024
Department of Oncological Urology, Veneto Institute of Oncology IOV-IRCCS, 35128 Padua, Italy.
As part of simulation-based learning, it is well known that debriefing plays a crucial role; ineffective debriefing can lead to a reiteration of errors in decision-making and a poor understanding of one's limitations, compromising the learner's psychological safety and making future simulated learning experiences less effective. In Italy, although simulation has been used in nursing education for more than 20 years, there is a general lack of data regarding the elements of debriefing. An exploratory, cross-sectional, multicenter nationwide study was conducted to identify current debriefing practices in Italian simulation-based nursing education.

Kidney Res Clin Pract
January 2025
Department of Radiology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College, Shantou, China.
Background: We aimed to explore changes in decision-related brain microstructure, brain functional activities, and functional connectivity, and their correlations with cognitive function in end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). Furthermore, the impact of dialysis on these changes was examined.
Methods: Thirty ESKD patients undergoing PD, 20 chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 patients without dialysis (predialysis CKD stage 5), and 30 healthy controls (HC) were recruited for the study.
Frailty index, frailty phenotype and 6-year mortality trends in the FRASNET cohort.
Front Med (Lausanne)
January 2025
Internal Medicine Unit, IRCCS San Raffaele Scientific Institute, Milan, Italy.
Background: Frailty, a geriatric syndrome associated with adverse outcomes, lacks a universal definition. No consensus exists on the most effective frailty scale for predicting mortality.
Methods: This prospective observational study followed community-dwelling volunteers for 6 years.
Estimating the Benefit of Transplant Over Dialysis in Candidates Over 55 Years.
Kidney360
January 2025
Division of Nephrology, Department of Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA.
Background: 'Life Years from Transplant' (LYFT) is a measure of the predicted difference between the expected lifespan with and without a kidney transplant. The metric was originally proposed in 1999; since then, demographics of the kidney transplant candidate population have materially changed.
Methods: Using contemporary SRTR data, we propose more sophisticated methods for estimating LYFT with a focus on older kidney transplant candidates, a growing sector of the current candidate pool.
Chronic Kidney Disease-Mineral Bone Disorder (CKD-MBD) in Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipients.
Pediatr Transplant
February 2025
Department of Pediatrics, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, California, USA.
Kidney transplantation remains the gold standard treatment for end-stage kidney disease (ESKD), effectively alleviating numerous comorbidities and offering a substantial survival advantage over long-term dialysis. Despite advancements in immunosuppressive regimens and improvements in graft and patient survival rates, extended patient longevity brings an accumulating burden and complexity of bone disease in this population, which often goes underrecognized. The present study reviews the pathophysiology of CKD-MBD in pediatric KTR, focusing on the progression of bone disease before and after transplantation.
