Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) is an effort to describe nursing activities by using a standardized nomenclature of nursing treatments (McCloskey & Bulechek, 1992). Limited research focused on community nursing activities has been included in the Iowa Intervention Project to date. The purpose of this study was to investigate how nursing activities performed by RN baccalaureate students in the public school setting conformed to the activities and interventions classifications proposed by the Iowa Intervention Project. Nursing activities were documented by 40 RNs for 1,774 clients in the schools. Those activities conformed to 25 of the 336 NICs. Findings further demonstrated that pain management was the most frequently used NIC, and patterns of clustering of classifications were also common. Although NIC can be used, the fit is not always strong. Specific recommendations are addressed for strengthening NIC use in the public schools.

Background: Although transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (tSCS) has been suggested as a safe and feasible intervention for gait rehabilitation, no studies have determined its effectiveness compared to sham stimulation.
Objective: To determine the effectiveness of tSCS combined with robotic-assisted gait training (RAGT) on lower limb muscle strength and walking function in incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) participants.
Methods: A randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial was conducted.

Purpose: Physical activity (PA) is associated with better quality of life for cancer survivors; however, less is known about this association among individuals with advanced cancer. This study assesses whether changes in PA following an advanced cancer diagnosis are associated with health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes.
Methods: Data were collected from 247 participants in a survey of adults with advanced cancer who visited the University of Wisconsin Carbone Cancer Center (January 2021-2023).

Background: Women aging with disabilities experience higher rates of chronic pain and co-occurring depressive symptoms than women without disabilities and men with and without disabilities. Pain and depression can exacerbate the inability to fulfill social roles and complete activities of daily living among women with disabilities. Although there are existing interventions for both pain and depressive symptoms, few interventions have been developed with women aging with disabilities that address both chronic pain and depressive symptoms.

Background: Regeneration plays a key role in energy recycling and homeostasis maintenance. Planarians, as ideal model animals for studying regeneration, stem cell proliferation, and apoptosis, have the strong regenerative abilities. Considerable evidence suggests that ubiquitin plays an important role in maintaining homeostasis and regulating regeneration, but the function of Ubiquitin specific proteases 7 (Usp7) on regeneration in planarians remains elusive.
