Background: Many nurse educators have pivoted their teaching to online formats since the COVID-19 pandemic began. Nurse educators face the dilemma that person-centred approaches are particularly challenging to replicate online. Current research provides general recommendations for designing and delivering online learning, but less is known about the usefulness of discipline-specific pedagogies for nursing education.
Aim: This study explores the value of creating discipline-specific pedagogies for online learning in baccalaureate nursing education.
Method: Using an action research approach, the authors document their lived experience of designing and delivering a course in two different formats - blended and entirely online. Drawing on existing and new educational models related to online learning, we explore how practice can inform the development of emergent frameworks to guide online education.
Results: Using reflective practice, the authors developed an emergent framework that draws on embodied learning theory to enhance the online delivery of a disability and enablement course for nursing students.
Conclusions: The concept of embodied pedagogies may offer a starting point for developing guidelines for person-centred and student-centred nursing education online.

Objective: We sought to develop a machine learning (ML) preoperative model to predict bile leak following hepatectomy for primary and secondary liver cancer.
Methods: An eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) model was developed to predict post-hepatectomy bile leak using data from the ACS-NSQIP database. The model was externally validated using data from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) multi-institutional databases.

Objectives: We explored how to improve communication about low-risk lesions including labels, language and other strategies.
Design: Qualitative description and thematic analysis to examine the transcripts of telephone interviews with patients who had low-risk lesions and physicians; and mapping to Communication Accommodation Theory to interpret themes.
Setting: Canada PARTICIPANTS: 15 patients: 6 (40%) bladder, 5 (33%) prostate and 4 (27%) cervix lesions; and 13 physicians: 7 (54%) cervix, 3 (23%) bladder and 3 (23%) prostate lesions.

Objectives: In this study, buprenorphine was the primary source of maternal opioid exposure at the time of initial prenatal evaluation. Current recommendations advise that level II ultrasounds be performed in patients with substance use disorders. For some patients, distance, transportation, and costs associated with obtaining ultrasounds from a specialist pose significant barriers.

The study focuses on the socio-cultural importance of hilsa fishery in West Bengal, which extends beyond mere sustenance, symbolising heritage, identity, and community spirit, particularly in South 24 Parganas district. As the state fish and a crucial livelihood source for many fishers, grave concerns have recently been flagged due to reduced catches and increased prices, highlighting the need for restoration. This study seeks to measure the non-consumptive value of hilsa fishery by involving 200 participants, 100 fishers and 100 consumers, utilising the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) with a payment card.

The coherent spin waves, magnons, can propagate without accompanying charge transports and Joule heat dissipation. Room-temperature and long-distance spin waves propagating within nanoscale spin channels are considered promising for integrated magnonic applications, but experimentally challenging. Here we report that long-distance propagation of chiral magnonic edge states can be achieved at room temperature in manganite thin films with long, antiferromagnetically coupled spin spirals (millimetre length) and low magnetic Gilbert damping (~3.
