Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) is a common postoperative complication that impairs arm function and diminishes quality of life. Consistent engagement in self-management practices is crucial for the early prevention of BCRL. Since risk perception is a key determinant of behaviour change, it may serve as a critical target for improving adherence to BCRL self-management among patients with breast cancer. This research aimed to evaluate the profiles and determinants of risk perception related to BCRL in women after breast cancer surgery.
Methods
A cross-sectional study involving 211 patients with breast cancer was carried out. Participants were recruited using convenience sampling from a tertiary hospital in Nanjing. Data were collected using a general information questionnaire, a self-designed and validated risk perception questionnaire, a lymphedema-related knowledge questionnaire, the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the General Self-Efficacy Scale. Latent profile analysis was carried out to determine subgroups of risk perception related to BCRL. Univariate and multivariate analyses were employed to examine factors influencing these subgroups.
Results
Latent profile analysis revealed three distinct risk perception subgroups: low-level risk perception (18.0%), medium-level risk perception (39.8%), and high-level risk perception (42.2%). Multinomial logistic regression revealed that factors such as age, employment status, education level, monthly household income, type of breast surgery, lymphedema-related knowledge, perceived social support, and self-efficacy significantly influenced these risk perception profiles (p < 0.05).
Conclusions
Substantial heterogeneity exists in risk perception levels regarding BCRL among patients with breast cancer after surgery. Healthcare providers should prioritize early identification of patients with low-risk perception tendencies and implement targeted interventions to address misperceptions. These efforts could enhance adherence to preventive strategies and mitigate the risk of BCRL.

The aim of this study was to translate and assess the psychometric properties of the Self-care of Coronary Heart Disease Inventory Version 3.0 (SC-CHDI v3.0) in the Chinese population.
Methods
Following Beaton's cross-cultural adaptation guidelines, the Chinese version was developed and tested with 373 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. Psychometric assessments included item analysis, construct validity, convergent validity and internal consistency reliability.
Results
The Chinese version of SC-CHDI v3.0, tailored to the Chinese linguistic context and clinical environment, comprised three sub-scales with a total of 23 items. Exploratory factor analysis extracted two factors for each sub-scale (self-care maintenance, monitoring and management), with cumulative variance contributions of 52.066%, 58.078% and 58.328%, respectively. Confirmatory factor analysis showed acceptable fit indices for all sub-scales (χ2/df 1.243, 2.178, 2.140; root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA) 0.034, 0.075, 0.073; standardised root mean square residual (SRMR) 0.044, 0.051, 0.049; comparative fit index (CFI) 0.973, 0.979, 0.965; and Tuck–Lewis index (TLI) 0.971, 0.950, 0.934). Cronbach's α for the self-care monitoring sub-scale was 0.825, and construct reliability for the self-care maintenance and self-care management sub-scales was 0.745 and 0.784, respectively.
Conclusion
The Chinese version of the SC-CHDI v3.0 has acceptable reliability and validity, providing an effective assessment tool for health providers to evaluate the self-care of patients with CAD in China.

This study aims to evaluate whether an 8-week, nurse-led, home-based pulmonary rehabilitation programme improves walking capacity, anxiety and sleep quality in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Methods
This was a single-centre, open-label, parallel-group randomized controlled trial with assessments at baseline and week 8. Ninety adults with stable COPD (GOLD II–III) were enrolled and randomized 1:1 (fixed-block size = 2; SNOSE concealment); 84 completed week-8 assessments and were analysed (home-based rehabilitation, n = 43; standard care, n = 41). Participants' mean age was 67.71 years; 73.8% were male; mean baseline FEV1 was 55% predicted. The 8-week intervention comprised home-based breathing and full-body resistance exercises (3–5×/week, 25–30 min), initiated with a tele-monitored session to ensure correct technique and supported by weekly nurse-led calls, alongside structured nurse-delivered education. Prespecified primary outcomes were 6-min walk distance, anxiety (STAI) and sleep quality (PSQI); secondary outcomes were cardiopulmonary signs, dyspnoea and spirometric indices.
Results
At week 8, the intervention improved walking capacity versus control (p < 0.001). Anxiety decreased on STAI-I/II (p < 0.001), and overall sleep quality improved on PSQI (p = 0.001), with benefits on Subjective Sleep Quality and Daytime Dysfunction (both p < 0.001); effects on Sleep Disturbances and Sleep Medication were smaller. Dyspnoea (Borg) also improved (p < 0.001). Secondary outcomes were consistent, and no intervention-related adverse events occurred.
Conclusion
Nurse-led, home-based pulmonary rehabilitation is a feasible and safe approach that improves functional capacity as well as psychological and sleep outcomes in adults with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

This study aimed to explore the enablers of and barriers to exercise training among overweight or obese infertile women.
Method
Semistructured in-depth interviews were conducted with 35 overweight or obese infertile women undergoing treatment at a reproductive centre in 2023 and recruited via purposive sampling. A hybrid inductive-deductive thematic analysis was used, drawing on the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) model.
Results
A study identified 10 themes that affect exercise training, which can be categorized into three domains: attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control. Enablers include a strong desire to have a baby, perceived benefits of exercise training, support from friends, family and medical staff, access to exercise training information and effective behavioural regulation strategies based on positive past experiences. Barriers include negative emotions or thoughts about behaviour change, lack of knowledge and resources, low self-efficacy and control in exercise training and negative experiences related to weight loss and infertility.
Conclusion
This study highlights the need for tailored interventions that address psychological well-being, body image concerns and social support inadequacies among overweight or obese infertility patients. Providers can develop personalized exercise plans, involve patients' families and social networks and emphasize psychological and social aspects to promote long-term engagement in exercise.

Asthma is a prevalent chronic condition among children, significantly impacting their quality of life and imposing a burden on healthcare systems. Nursing interventions, encompassing education, care coordination and symptom management, are increasingly recognized as critical components of paediatric asthma care. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the effectiveness of nursing interventions on various asthma-related outcomes.
Methods
A comprehensive search of PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Scopus and Web of Science was conducted, identifying 35 studies involving over 6394 participants. Outcomes included asthma control, emergency department (ED) visits, hospitalizations, quality of life (QoL), acute asthma attacks, correct inhaler usage, medication adherence and symptom frequency. Random-effects models were used for pooling standardized mean differences (SMDs) and odds ratios (ORs), with heterogeneity assessed using I2 and τ2.
Results
Nursing interventions significantly reduced ED visits (SMD −1.741; OR 0.450) and hospitalizations (OR 0.378), improved QoL (SMD 1.013), reduced acute asthma attacks (SMD −2.149) and enhanced inhaler usage (SMD 1.254). Significant reductions in daytime and nighttime symptoms were observed (SMD −1.700 and −0.610, respectively). However, effects on asthma control (SMD 0.618; OR 3.011) and medication use (OR 0.970) were not statistically significant. Heterogeneity was high for several outcomes.
Conclusion
Nursing interventions significantly improve acute care utilization, symptom control and QoL in paediatric asthma management, highlighting their value in clinical practice. Standardized protocols and further research are needed to optimize and sustain these benefits.
背景：哮喘是儿童中一种常见的慢性疾病，严重影响儿童的生活质量，并给卫生保健系统带来负担。护理干预，包括教育，护理协调和症状管理，越来越被认为是儿科哮喘护理的关键组成部分。本荟萃分析旨在评估护理干预对各种哮喘相关结果的有效性。方法：综合检索PubMed、CINAHL、EMBASE、Cochrane Library、Scopus和Web of Science，共检索35项研究，涉及6394名受试者。结果包括哮喘控制、急诊就诊、住院、生活质量（QoL）、急性哮喘发作、正确使用吸入器、药物依从性和症状频率。随机效应模型用于合并标准化平均差异（SMDs）和优势比（ORs），并使用I2和τ2评估异质性。结果：护理干预显著减少ED就诊（SMD -1.741; OR 0.450）和住院（OR 0.378），改善生活质量（SMD - 1.013），减少急性哮喘发作（SMD -2.149），增加吸入器使用（SMD - 1.254）。观察到白天和夜间症状显著减少（SMD分别为-1.700和-0.610）。但对哮喘控制（SMD = 0.618; OR = 3.011）和用药（OR = 0.970）的影响无统计学意义。有几个结果的异质性很高。结论：护理干预可显著提高儿科哮喘的急性护理利用率、症状控制和生活质量，具有重要的临床应用价值。需要标准化的方案和进一步的研究来优化和维持这些益处。

This study was conducted to adapt the Colonoscopy Satisfaction and Safety Questionnaire into Turkish and evaluate its psychometric properties.
Method
The study was conducted with a methodological design recruiting a sample of 181 individuals scheduled for colonoscopy procedures.
Results
Content validity index for a single dimension yielded a satisfactory score of 0.95. The study also revealed strong and consistent time-dependent invariance correlation coefficients ranging from 0.82 to 0.97, indicating reliability over time. A robust and positive relationship was detected between the item scores recorded during the pretest and posttest assessments. After item analysis, three items were removed from the questionnaire, resulting in a 13-item scale that displayed good internal consistency with a Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.86.
Conclusion
The findings suggest that the Turkish version of the Colonoscopy Satisfaction and Safety Questionnaire is well-suited for use in research related to patients undergoing colonoscopy procedures. As a result of this study, it was determined that it is an appropriate tool for assessing the satisfaction of patients undergoing colonoscopy.

Background
Research has shown that providing high-quality supportive care to ischemic stroke survivors can promote their physical rehabilitation. Therefore, understanding the supportive care needs of this patient group is essential.
Aim
To investigate ischemic stroke survivors' supportive care needs at various rehabilitation stages.
Methods
This phenomenological study used purposive sampling to recruit ischemic stroke patients from a tertiary hospital in Xuzhou, China, between April 2023 and October 2023. Data were collected at four rehabilitation stages through in-depth interviews and observations of ischemic stroke survivors. Forty-eight semi-structured interviews were conducted, and data were analysed using Colaizzi's phenomenological method to identify study themes.
Results
The themes of ischemic stroke survivors' supportive care needs at various rehabilitation stages were as follows: (1) comprehensive stroke knowledge (acute hospitalisation stage), (2) comprehensive rehabilitation support (1 month after stroke onset), (3) continuity of care services (3 months after stroke onset) and (4) systemic social support (6 months after stroke onset).
Conclusion
Ischemic stroke patients' supportive care needs vary according to the stages of the disease. Healthcare providers and caregivers should deliver stage-specific holistic care to help enhance these patients' rehabilitation.

The aim of this study was to identify and summarize the roles of nursing schools in disaster management within the context of advanced disaster nursing.
Background
Little is known of the roles, responsibilities and concrete contributions of nursing schools in disaster management.
Methods
This study was conducted as a scoping review. This scoping review was conducted following the five-stage methodological framework and reported in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist. EBSCO, PubMed, Science Direct, Medline, Proquest, Web of Science and Scopus were searched to find articles. Only articles in English published in the last 25 years were considered, and 16 articles were included in the study. The included articles were analysed using inductive content analysis.
Results
Nursing schools exhibit notable gaps in disaster preparedness and response processes, with particular emphasis on the need to clearly define disaster-specific roles and strengthen leadership. Thematic analysis yielded two main themes and corresponding subthemes that directly address the research questions: (1) Roles of nursing schools in disaster (education and preparedness, simulation and practical experience, psychosocial support skills, collaboration and coordination, public health and prevention strategies, rapid decision-making and stress management); and (2) efforts of nursing schools to develop advanced disaster nursing knowledge (collaboration and stakeholder relations, leadership and management skills, sustainability and assessment, community engagement and awareness).
Conclusions
Nursing schools play multifaceted and comprehensive roles in disaster contexts, actively adopting diverse approaches to advance disaster management nursing knowledge and competencies.
