Aim: To explore nursing students' perceptions and experiences of using large language models and identify the facilitators and barriers by applying the Theory of Planned Behaviour.
Design: A qualitative descriptive design.
Method: Between January and June 2024, we conducted individual semi-structured online interviews with 24 nursing students from 13 medical universities across China. Participants were recruited using purposive and snowball sampling methods. Interviews were conducted in Mandarin. Data were analysed through directed content analysis.
Results: Analysis revealed 10 themes according to 3 constructs of the Theory of Planned Behaviour: (a) attitude: perceived value and expectations were facilitators, while perceived caution posed barriers; (b) subjective norm: media effects and role model effectiveness were described as facilitators, whereas organisational pressure exerted by medical universities, research institutions and hospitals acted as a barrier to usage; (c) perceived behavioural control: the design of models and free access were strong incentives for students to use, while geographic access restrictions and digital literacy deficiencies were key factors hindering adoption.
Conclusion: This study explored nursing students' attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control regarding the use of large language models. The findings provided valuable insights into the factors that hindered or facilitated nursing students' adoption.
Implications For The Profession: Through the lens of this study, we have enhanced knowledge of the journey of nursing students using large language models, which contributes to the implementation and management of these tools in nursing education.
Impact: There is a gap in the literature regarding nursing students' views and perceptions of large language models and the factors that influence their usage, which this study addresses. These findings could provide evidence-based support for nurse educators to formulate management strategies and guidelines.
Reporting Method: Reporting adheres to the consolidated criteria for reporting qualitative research (COREQ) checklist.
Public Contribution: No patient or public contribution.

Pediatric cerebellar tumor survivors may present with spontaneous language impairments following treatment, but the nature of these impairments is still largely unclear. A recent study by Svaldi et al. (Cerebellum.

We here present a novel generative visual attribution technique, one that leverages latent diffusion models in combination with domain-specific large language models, in order to generate normal counterparts of abnormal images. The discrepancy between the two hence gives rise to a mapping indicating the diagnostically-relevant image components.

With the advancement of internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) technology, access to large-scale bilingual parallel data has become more efficient, thereby accelerating the development and application of machine translation. Given the increasing cultural exchanges between China and Japan, many scholars have begun to study the Chinese translation of Japanese waka poetry. Based on this, the study first explores the structure of waka and the current state of its Chinese translations, analyzing existing translation disputes and introducing a data collection method for waka using IoT.

Background: Machine learning models can reduce the burden on doctors by converting medical records into International Classification of Diseases (ICD) codes in real time, thereby enhancing the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment. However, it faces challenges such as small datasets, diverse writing styles, unstructured records, and the need for semimanual preprocessing. Existing approaches, such as naive Bayes, Word2Vec, and convolutional neural networks, have limitations in handling missing values and understanding the context of medical texts, leading to a high error rate.
