Aim: To determine the effect of Jigsaw Technique on students' psychomotor skill levels, academic achievement and retention of knowledge on local drug applications and their opinion on Jigsaw Technique.
Background: It is thought that the use of teaching methods and techniques that will increase the student's participation in the lesson and increase the satisfaction level in the learning process will affect the achievement of the expected outputs at the end of the lesson.
Design: Quasi-experimental educational intervention study.
Methods: The study was conducted with 98 first-year undergraduate nursing students in Turkey. The students in the intervention group (n=49) learned the subject with the jigsaw technique and the students in the control group (n=49) learned the subject with the traditional method. Data were collected using "Questionnaire for Local Drug Applications", "Skill Assessment Form", "Jigsaw Opinion Scale", "Kolb Learning Style Inventory-III" and demographic questionnaire. Percentage, frequency, independent sample t-test, ANOVA were used in data analysis.
Results: The results showed that there was no statistically significant difference between the local drug application knowledge mean scores of both groups (A: 64.72 SD 11.66; B: 65.89 SD 13.13; p>.05). The difference between the skill point averages of both groups (A: 69.18 ± 15.99; B: 52.35 SD 19.85; p<.05) was found to be significant. In the first and second measurements to determine the permanence of knowledge, the mean score of the intervention group (78.23 SD 13.26; 73.37 SD 14.28) was compared to the control group (67.64 Sd 14.87; 54.42 SD 12.82) was found to be significantly higher (p<.05). It was determined that the Jigsaw Opinion Scale mean score of the students was 55.80 SD 7.49.
Conclusions: In the results of the study, it was determined that the Jigsaw Technique is an effective teaching method to improve the psychomotor skill levels of nursing first year students and to increase the retention of knowledge.

Background: Amid a youth mental health crisis, community-based early intervention services have shown promising outcomes. Understanding the specific factors that predict clinical outcomes is crucial for enhancing intervention efficacy, yet these factors remain insufficiently understood.
Aim: This study examined the individual and service-related factors associated with reliable improvement for young people (n = 4565) aged 12-25 years attending a brief primary care youth talk therapy mental health service across 14 sites.

Background: Surgical treatment of comminuted and multiple facial fractures is challenging, as identifying the bone anatomy and restoring the alignment are complicated. To overcome the difficulties, 3D-printed "jigsaw puzzle" has been innovated to improve the surgical outcome. This study aimed to demonstrate the feasibility of 3D-printed model in facial fracture restoration procedures.

A heptasaccharide was isolated from an active fraction of Trillium tschonoskii using HILIC and high-temperature PGC chromatography methods. UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS analysis gave this oligosaccharide a degree of polymerization (DP) of 7 and MS/MS showed that it has a six-carbon aldehyde glucan structure with the possible chain 1 → 4 connected. The structure was determined by series 1D and 2D NMR in two solvents DO and DMSO‑d.
