AI Article Synopsis
- - The study investigated how nurses' lifelong learning impacts their digital literacy and online information search strategies at a hospital in Istanbul, involving 302 participants.
- - Results showed a positive correlation between higher lifelong learning and improved digital literacy as well as better web-based information search and interpretation skills among nurses.
- - Nurses aged 31 and older exhibited high lifelong learning and digital literacy levels, indicating that their ongoing education enhances their ability to find and interpret information from professional online sources.
Article Abstract
This study aimed to determine the relationship between nurses' levels of lifelong learning and their Web-based information search and interpretation strategies and digital literacy. This descriptive correlational study was conducted at a training and research hospital in Istanbul province. Data were obtained from 302 nurses who consented to participate in the study between April 17 and June 23, 2023. The data were collected using a questionnaire, the Lifelong Learning Scale, the Digital Literacy Scale, and the Web-Based Information Search and Interpretation Strategies Scale. The mean age of the nurses was 31.52 ± 7.4 years. A positive correlation was found between nurses' lifelong learning levels and digital literacy levels. In addition, nurses' lifelong learning levels positively affect Web-based information search and interpretation strategies. It was determined that the mean scores of the subdimensions of the Scale of Information Search and Interpretation Strategies in the Web Environment were high. Nurses with an average age of 31 years and above have a high level of lifelong learning and level of digital literacy. Nurses' willingness to learn throughout their lives has positively affected their digital literacy levels. Nurses use different sources and professional Web sites more frequently when seeking information than other strategies.

The creation of future low-power neuromorphic solutions requires specialist spiking neural network (SNN) algorithms that are optimized for neuromorphic settings. One such algorithmic challenge is the ability to recall learned patterns from their noisy variants. Solutions to this problem may be required to memorize vast numbers of patterns based on limited training data and subsequently recall the patterns in the presence of noise.

For the last 38 years, all neuroprotective agents for patients with ischemic stroke have failed in clinical trials. The innate immune system, particularly microglia, is a much-discussed target for neuroprotective agents. Promising results for neuroprotection by inhibition of integrins with drugs such as natalizumab in animal stroke models have not been translated into clinical practice.

Background: Women's reproductive experiences may enact reorganization of physiological systems with lifelong health consequences. We test the hypothesis that women's history of breastfeeding will be positively associated with neurocognitive benefits in post-menopausal women. This hypothesis is justified by breastfeeding's well-established benefits for mothers' glucose homeostasis, beta-cell function, adipose tissue mobilization, and lipid metabolism, which would plausibly be beneficial for later-life brain health.

Background: Midlife blood pressure is a risk factor for cognitive impairment. Yet, the directional relationship between blood pressure and memory may vary across adulthood, be confounded by earlier life factors, and vary by sex. Using a population-based cohort of people born in the same week, we investigate the bidirectional associations between diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and memory, spanning over 25 years of adulthood.
