Nurse educators design simulations with the intent that students transfer previous academic learning. Transfer of learning (TOL) is a complex and abstract concept with critical literature gaps needing measurement research. This study examined the association between simulation characteristics and students' TOL attitudes and the effect strength. This baseline study evidenced simulation design characteristics, as category groupings, were associated with students' TOL attitudes with positive and mostly modest effects. The resulting educational implications include applying instructional design to simulation, teaching students what TOL is, and modeling thinking in the classroom for transfer to simulation.

Citrullus lanatus is an important vegetable crop, but it is heavily polluted by cadmium. In this study, we used C. Lanatus as experimental material to investigate effects of different concentrations (0, 50, 100, 200, 400 µmolL) of exogenous melatonin, and grafting on the physiological growth index and anatomical structure of seedlings were studied by simulating Cd (180 mg L) stress environment.

The strong solid-liquid interaction leads to the complicated occurrence characteristics of shale oil. However, the solid-liquid interface interaction and its controls of the occurrence state of shale oil are poorly understood on the molecular scale. In this work, the adsorption behavior and occurrence state of shale oil in pores of organic/inorganic matter under reservoir conditions were investigated by using grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations.

Microgravity-induced cardiac remodeling and dysfunction present significant challenges to long-term spaceflight, highlighting the urgent need to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms and develop precise countermeasures. Previous studies have outlined the important role of miRNAs in cardiovascular disease progression, with miR-199a-3p playing a crucial role in myocardial injury repair and the maintenance of cardiac function. However, the specific role and expression pattern of miR-199a-3p in microgravity-induced cardiac remodeling remain unclear.

The brain, as a vital part of central nervous system, receives approximately 25% of body's blood supply, making accurate monitoring of cerebral blood flow essential. While fNIRS is widely used for measuring brain physiology, complex tissue structure affects light intensity, spot size, and detection accuracy. Many studies rely on simulations with limited experimental validation.

The film water, with an exceptional capacity to maintain a premelting, liquid-like state even under subzero conditions, provides a potential dynamic conduit for the movement of water in frozen soils. However, the distinctive structural and dynamic characteristics of film water have not been comprehensively elucidated. In this study, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were conducted to examine the freezing of a system containing ice, water, silica, and gas.
