With increased need for palliative care and limited staffing resources, non-social workers are increasingly responsible for screening for urgent psychosocial distress. The National Consensus Project guidelines call for all palliative care team members to be competent in screening across domains. Yet, in contrast to an abundance of evidence-informed tools for palliative social work assessments, standardization for interprofessional psychosocial screening is lacking. This lack of standardized practice may lead to harmful disparities in care delivery...

BACKGROUND: Patient-accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs) are assumed to enhance the quality of care, expressed in terms of safety, effectiveness, timeliness, person centeredness, efficiency, and equity. However, research on the impact of PAEHRs on the perceived quality of care among parents, children, and adolescents is largely lacking. In the Netherlands, a PAEHR (Iuvenelis) was developed for preventive child health care and youth care. Parents and adolescents had access to its full content, could manage appointments, ask questions, and comment on written reports...

Light-element-based fluorescent materials, colloidal graphene quantum dots, and carbon dots (CDs) have sparked an immense amount of scientific interest in the past decade. However, a significant challenge in practical applications has emerged concerning the development of solid-state fluorescence (SSF) materials. This study addresses this knowledge gap by exploring the unexplored photonic facets of C-based solid-state microphotonic emitters. The proposed synthesis approach focuses on carbonized polymer microspheres (CPMs) instead of conventional nanodots...

Withdrawal of Life-Sustaining Treatment in the PICU From the Nursing Staff's Perspective: Integrative Review Abstract: Background: Withdrawal of life sustaining measures is a common mode of treatment prior to the death of a critically ill child and has implications for all involved. The perspective of nurses has not yet been considered in this context. Aim: How do nurses experience the termination of life-sustaining measures in the paediatric intensive care unit? What is their role in this process? Methods: An integrative review was conducted to answer the research question...

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to evolve rapidly, its integration into nursing education is inevitable. This article presents a narrative exploring the implementation of generative AI in nursing education and offers a guide for its strategic use. The exploration begins with an examination of the broader societal impact and uses of artificial intelligence, recognizing its pervasive presence and the potential it holds. Thematic analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats collected from nurse educators across the southeastern United States in this case-based descriptive study used four codes: time, innovation, critical thinking, and routine tasks...

OBJECTIVE: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and traumatic brain injury (TBI), which are prevalent conditions among post-9/11 veterans, increase risks of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD) and degenerative synucleinopathy. Rates and predictors of RBD symptoms were investigated by screening post-9/11 veterans for RBD with a validated questionnaire. METHODS: In this cross-sectional analysis, consecutive patients in the Houston Translational Research Center for TBI and Stress Disorders (TRACTS) were screened with the English translation of the RBD Questionnaire-Hong Kong (RBDQ-HK)...

BACKGROUND: Medical school curricula strive to train community-engaged and culturally competent physicians, and many use service learning to instill these values in students. The current standards for medical service learning frameworks have opportunities for improvement, such as encouraging students to have more sustainable and reciprocal impact and to ingrain service learning as a value to carry throughout their careers rather than a one-time experience. PEDS 220: A COVID-19 Elective is a Stanford University course on the frontlines of this shift; it provides timely education on the COVID-19 pandemic, integrating community-oriented public health work to help mitigate its impact...

BACKGROUND: Well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare malignancies that are clinically very heterogeneous. Accordingly, their treatment is also complex and dependent on various factors. With currently available systemic therapies, the prognosis is often favorable. OBJECTIVES: This article aims to provide an overview of current treatment strategies for NET, addressing the most important NET locations. METHODS: The current European guidelines and further relevant literature on the treatment of NET were reviewed for this purpose...

BACKGROUND: Intraocular metastases arising from solid tumors are found in approximately 2% of patients with metastatic tumor diseases and are therefore more frequent than originally assumed. They often affect the uvea and are associated with a poor prognosis. Due to the difficult diagnosis and an inconsistent treatment regimen, ophthalmologists have a special responsibility here. OBJECTIVE: This article gives a summary of the various types of intraocular metastases with respect to clinical features, diagnostics, treatment and prognosis as well as recommendations for follow-up care...

The visual appeal of teeth and smiles significantly influences both how others perceive individuals and their self-image and confidence. The subjective nature of dental esthetics, varying greatly among patients and dental professionals, has made digital smile design tools essential for creating natural and personalized esthetics. Contemporary digital methods and workflows encompass all clinical phases, from diagnosis to the creation of a smile aligned with the patient's facial features, and the completion of the restoratives...
