Background: Social networks have emerged as powerful tools in education, offering new opportunities for interactive learning. TikTok has gained popularity among young people and has potential for use as a teaching tool in health disciplines.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of an educational program based on a multimodal intervention using the TikTok platform to improve theoretical-practical knowledge about diabetic debut and vaccination schedules and satisfaction in nursing students.
Design: A quasi-experimental study design.
Settings: Faculty of Nursing, University of Cadiz, Spain.
Participants: 74 third-year undergraduate university nursing students.
Methods: According to Kolb's experiential learning model, a multimodal educational intervention was carried out during the academic year 2022/2023, with 12 h of training. In these sessions, theoretical content on the vaccination calendar and diabetic debut was developed with written case studies. In the last session, 19 working groups were formed and each group was given a practical case study to solve through role-playing and creating a video in TikTok. A questionnaire to measure individual knowledge and a rubric questionnaire were used to evaluate the simulations in TikTok platform.
Results: A significant improvement (z = 6.843, p < 0.001) was observed in the mean scores (9.93 ± 1.65) of the posttest of the knowledge questionnaire, used to evaluate abstract conceptualisation abilities. Additionally, a mean score of 10.42 (SD = 1.42) of the items on the rubric questionnaire, designed to assess active experimentation and reflective observation abilities, were correctly performed. It stands out that 97.1 % of the students positively valued the elements of teaching innovation implemented, while 82.9 % showed a high level of satisfaction with their activity.
Conclusion: A multimodal educational intervention using TikTok platform proved to be effective in improving the acquisition of theoretical-practical knowledge in the university students included in the study. Therefore, this type of experiential training is recommended for the training of future health professionals.

Background While key to interpreting findings and assessing generalizability, implementation fidelity is underreported in mobile health (mHealth) literature. We evaluated implementation fidelity of an opt-in, hybrid, two-way texting (2wT) intervention previously demonstrated to improve 12-month retention on antiretroviral therapy (ART) among people living with HIV (PLHIV) in a quasi-experimental study in Lilongwe, Malawi. Methods Short message service (SMS) data and ART refill visit records were used to evaluate adherence to 2wT content, frequency and duration through the lens of the Conceptual Framework for Implementation Fidelity.

This study assessed the impact of DSD models on QoL, loss to follow-up (LTFU), and mortality among persons living with HIV (PLHIV) on ART over time at a large urban HIV clinic in Uganda. We analyzed records of 1,000 PLHIV who had been on ART for 10 years and followed up for eight years, starting in 2014 or 2015 at the Infectious Diseases Institute clinic in Kampala, Uganda.

Objective: Our aim is to determine the comparative effectiveness of unimodality organ preservation surgery versus radiotherapy on oncological and functional outcomes in patients with early hypopharyngeal cancer.
Introduction: Early hypopharyngeal cancer is difficult to detect and therefore rarely diagnosed, as patients are often asymptomatic. Radiotherapy is considered the main treatment, although this modality has been compared to the previously used open surgical approach, which may not reflect current surgical options.
Effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy versus conservative pain management on occupational performance in patients with low back pain: a systematic review protocol.

Graduate School, University of Santo Tomas, Manila, Philippines.
Objective: This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in improving the occupational performance of individuals with low back pain (LBP) compared with conservative pain management.
Introduction: LBP is a condition that describes pain between the lower edge of ribs and the buttocks. It is projected to affect 843 million people by 2050, with significant economic and occupational consequences.
Development and evaluation of a simulation-based early-mobility curriculum for paediatric intensive care nurses.
Nurs Crit Care

Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, Maryland, USA.
Background: Early mobility is one strategy to reduce the harm from immobility that children experience in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Early-mobility programmes rely on nurses, who currently perceive insufficient training as a barrier to mobilizing critically ill children. Nurses have identified simulation as a strategy to improve implementation of early-mobility protocols.
