Background: Given the nature of the health profession, medical errors are considered a common problem. Nursing students are inevitably likely to make medical errors due to the lack of adequate and safe learning environments during their clinical practice.
Aim: We aimed to investigate the relationship between the tendency to make medical errors and the level of mindfulness of senior nursing students.
Methods: Data were collected using the Malpractice Trend Scale (MTS) and the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS). This study was reported following STROBE.
Results: The students' MAAS total score mean was 62.96 ± 1.64. The MTS total score mean was 79.91 ± 1.25. According to Pearson correlation analysis, there was a weak, positive (r = 0.194) and statistically insignificant (p > 0.05) relationship between the total scores of MTS and MAAS.
Conclusions: It was concluded that as the students' mindfulness levels increase, their tendency to make medical error decreases, but this result is not statistically significant.

Background: Older outpatients face a heightened risk of potentially inappropriate prescribing (PIP). However, there is a paucity of evidence evaluating PIP in older outpatients attending surgical outpatient departments in China using Chinese-specific criteria. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of PIP and identify associated factors within this population.

Purpose To develop and evaluate an automated system for extracting structured clinical information from unstructured radiology and pathology reports using open-weights language models (LMs) and retrieval augmented generation (RAG) and to assess the effects of model configuration variables on extraction performance. Materials and Methods This retrospective study utilized two datasets: 7,294 radiology reports annotated for Brain Tumor Reporting and Data System (BT-RADS) scores and 2,154 pathology reports annotated for mutation status (January 2017 to July 2021). An automated pipeline was developed to benchmark the performance of various LMs and RAG configurations for structured data extraction accuracy from reports.
