AI Article Synopsis
- The number of community health workers is expected to increase by 17% by 2030, highlighting the growing importance of public health roles.
- A baccalaureate degree in nursing (BSN) serves as a solid foundation for pursuing a career in public health nursing.
- An educational intervention resulted in significant improvements in BSN students' competencies in public health nursing, indicating a need for interactive simulations to enhance teamwork and communication skills among students.
Article Abstract
Community health workers are projected to grow in number by 17 percent by 2030. A baccalaureate degree in nursing (BSN) provides a foundation for public health nursing practice. The Competencies for Public Health Nursing Practice instrument was distributed to BSN students at a Midwestern university before and after an educational intervention. Students completed a pretest ( n = 269) and posttest ( n = 154). All four subscales and total score indicated a significant increase in competence ( p < .001). There is a need to develop interactive public health nursing simulations with an interprofessional venue to help students improve teamwork and communication competencies.

This analysis article aimed to identify and analyze all articles published on the post-COVID-19 condition in Latin America and the Caribbean, focusing on epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and risk of bias. We did a systematic survey of the literature with broad inclusion criteria. The only exclusion criteria were articles referring to post-acute COVID-19 sequelae after an intensive care unit stay, which we distinguish from the post-COVID-19 condition.

Background And Aims: Around 750,000 patients per year will be cured of HCV infection until 2030. Those with compensated advanced chronic liver disease remain at risk for hepatic decompensation and de novo HCC. Algorithms have been developed to stratify risk early after cure; however, data on long-term outcomes and the prognostic utility of these risk stratification algorithms at later time points are lacking.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 10% of the global population, with increasing prevalence driven by diabetes, hypertension, and aging populations. CKD often progresses asymptomatically, frequently undetected until advanced stages, and may require costly treatments, such as dialysis or transplantation. CKD imposes a substantial financial burden on health care systems, with management costs rising sharply as the disease progresses, underscoring the need for early, cost-effective interventions.

Nanozyme-based colorimetric sensors are promising approaches for environmental monitoring, food safety, and medical diagnostics. However, developing novel nanozymes that exhibit high catalytic activity, good dispersion in aqueous solution, high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability is challenging. In this study, for the first time, single-atom iridium-doped carbon dot nanozymes (SA Ir-CDs) are synthesized via a simple in situ pyrolysis process.
