Publishing in JCR and SJR journals has become crucial for curricular development. Results from nursing investigations "compete" for publication in journals which are not specific to the field of care, affecting the academic development of these investigators. This phenomenon may lead to an ongoing adverse effect on nursing researchers and academics engaged in research in nursing care. The aim of this study was to evaluate habits regarding scientific literature consulting, the transfer of published material, and the citation of nursing investigations. A cross-sectional descriptive study by means of questionnaires was carried out, focusing on both Spanish and Portuguese nurses. The findings of the study reveal the following reasons for reading the scientific literature: that the language was understood; for learning and applying what was learnt; that the journal was of open access; for elaborating protocols and work procedures; and that the journal was indexed in scientific databases and in nursing databases. The reasons for reading, using, and publishing in journals were related to knowledge of the language and the associated usefulness of learning and applying knowledge. Creating a specific index of research publications in nursing will have a positive effect on the scientific production of caring methodologies.

Chest

January 2025

Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, Mayo Clinic, 200 First Street SW, Rochester, MN, 55905, USA. Electronic address:

Background: Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) rates are higher in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) than in high-income countries (HICs).

Research Question: Could differences in ventilator bundle adherence, ventilation practices, and critical care staffing be driving variations in VAP risk between LMICs and HICs?

Study Design And Methods: This secondary analysis of the multicenter, international CERTAIN study included mechanically ventilated patients at risk for VAP from eleven LMICs and five HICs. We included oral care, head-of-bed elevation, spontaneous breathing assessments, and sedation breaks in the ventilator bundle.
