Introduction: Methylmalonic Acidemia (MMA) is a group of inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs), specifically of propionate catabolism characterized by gastrointestinal and neurometabolic manifestations resulting from a deficiency in the function of methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, methylmalonyl-CoA epimerase, and cobalamin metabolism. Aim: To evaluate the effect of PRECEDE model application on mothers’ care of their children diagnosed with Methylmalonic Academia (MMA). Design: A quasi-experimental design was utilized. Setting: This study was conducted at the Specialized Genetic Outpatient Clinic at Sohag University Hospital. Subject: A purposive sample of 60 mothers and their children with MMA was recruited from the previously selected settings. Three tools were used: (1) structured interviewing questionnaire, (2) PRECEDE model questionnaire, and (3) Mothers’ Reported Practices format. Results: The mean age of the studied children were 4.8 ± 2.49 years, and the mean age of the studied mothers was 25 ± 6.6 years. More than two-thirds of the mothers had unsatisfactory knowledge about Methylmalonic Acidemia prePRECEDE model implementation compared with the majority of them reported satisfactory total knowledge post-implementation; As well, mothers' total reported practices were significantly improved post-implementation of the PRECEDE model. Conclusion: It was concluded that PRECEDE model application led to highly significant improvements in studied mothers' knowledge and reported practices regarding the care of their children diagnosed with MMA. Recommendations: The PRECEDE model application for mothers having children with MMA should be provided to increase their knowledge and practice regarding the disease, its management, and prevention of complications. Future research should be focused on investigating the relationship between the socioeconomic status of mothers and Methylmalonic Acidemia. Nurses in the Genetic Outpatient Clinic should be trained well and supplied with information and training programs about MMA because the nurses are the main source of mothers' information who are providing their children with needed care.

Background: Critical thinking and problem-solving skills of nursing interns can enhance their competence and ensure quality care delivery. Aim: to investigate the development of critical thinking disposition and problem-solving aptitude during internship exposure. Design: Descriptive correlational research. Setting: teaching university hospitals in Cairo governorate . Sample: A convenience sample of 80 interns who passed level 4 of the graduate nursing program. Instruments: California Critical Thinking Disposition Inventory scale and the Problem-Solving Questionnaire. Ethical considerations: Approval was obtained from the Research Ethics Committee. Data Collection: The instruments were distributed to interns before they begin their training and after 12 months. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired sample t-tests to examine mean differences between pre-training and post-training. Results: Nursing interns generally scored moderately on critical thinking and problem-solving skills. The highest average percentage was observed in the "Inquisitiveness" item for critical thinking, while the lowest mean percentage was for the "Maturity". Interns with secondary school entry levels and those from technical nursing institutes displayed significantly different avoidance styles. Recommendations: Nursing education programs and clinical training to provide targeted interventions and strategies to enhance critical thinking and problem-solving skills among nursing interns are needed during their internship.
