The Effect of the use of Artificial İntelligence in the Preparation of Patient Education Materials By Nursing Students on the Understandability, Actionability and Quality of the Material: A Randomized Controlled Trial
(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Saatçi, Gamze; Korkut, Sevda; Ünsal, Ayla
Aim: This study was conducted to examine the effect of nursing students' use of artificial intelligence (AI) tools while preparing patient education materials on the understandability, actionability and quality of the material in terms of content. Background: AI can significantly improve nursing students' learning experiences, helping them to be better prepared for the challenges of a rapidly changing healthcare environment. By ensuring that materials are prepared in accordance with students' individual learning styles, preferences and needs, AI can both improve the effectiveness of educational materials and contribute to better learning outcomes. Design: This study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study. Methods: The study completed with 180 nursing students (control group = 89; intervention group = 91). The students in the control group used auxiliary tools such as books, journals and websites while preparing patient education materials. The students in the intervention group used AI tools in addition to tools such as books, journals and websites. Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool (PEMAT) and Global Quality Scale were used to evaluate the educational materials. Results: There are significant differences in students' PEMAT scores between the intervention and control groups in terms of both understandability, actionability and quality (p<0.001). Conclusions: Nursing students' use of AI tools in preparing patient education materials has increased the understandability, actionability and quality of educational materials. The results show that the integration of AI into educational material preparation processes plays an important role in improving the effectiveness of educational contents.
ℐ⨁ss−Supplemented modules
(Maejo University, 2024) Kır, Emine Önal; Türkmen, Burcu Nişancı
We describe ℐss⨁ − supplemented modules as a proper generalisation of ⨁ss −supplemented modules. We show that each direct summand of a ℐss⨁ −supplemented module satisfying condition (D3) is also ℐss⨁ −supplemented. Then we prove that the finite direct sum of ℐss⨁ − supplemented submodules as a duo module is ℐss⨁ − supplemented. Moreover, we have given some types of rings whose modules are ℐss⨁−supplemented.
Foliar Application of Chitosan and Brassinosteroids on Glutinous Rice (‘RD6’): Alteration in Growth, Agronomic Trait, Antioxidant Capacity, Elemental Composition and Aroma Compound, 2-Acetyl-1-Pyrroline (2AP) in Rice Grain
(Instituto de Investigaciones Agropecuarias, INIA, 2024) Khaengkhan, Phirayot; Wanna, Ruchuon; Bunphan, Darika; Kunlanit, Benjapon; Srisompan, Orawan; ...; Bozdoğan, Hakan
The ‘RD6’ glutinous rice (Oryza sativa L.), developed from the popular aromatic rice ‘KDML105’ through gamma irradiation, is a key economic cultivar widely consumed in Thailand and exported throughout Asia. However, cultivation of the ‘RD6’ faces challenges due to its low grain yield and growth performance. The objective of this study was to use biostimulant chitosan and brassinosteroids to promote growth performance, nutrition, and yield of the ‘RD6’ rice. Chitosan (2.5, 5.0, 7.5, and 10.0 mg L-1) and brassinosteroids (0.00005, 0.0005, 0.001, and 0.002 mg L-1) were sprayed twice at 40-and 75-d-old rice plants in paddy fields. The results demonstrated that foliar spraying with 7.5 mg L-1 chitosan can promote leaf growth of ‘RD6’ and improve grain yield by 24% as compared with the control. More pronounced effects were observed with 0.002 mg L-1 brassinosteroid, improving not only growth but also ‘RD6’ yield by 41.8% compared to the control. Moreover, 0.002 mg L-1 brassinosteroids can enhance antioxidant capacities (total phenolic contents), elemental K and Ca contents, and the aroma compound 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) contents in the rice grains. Furthermore, the use of 0.002 mg L-1 brassinosteroids proved to be a financially sound investment, yielding superior net returns and an advantageous benefit-cost ratio compared with 7.5 mg L-1 chitosan. Therefore, the use of exogenous brassinosteroids on glutinous rice in this study offers promising advantages for promoting the growth and physiological performance of rice plants.
Exploring the Potential of Bilberry Extracts as Natural Antifungal and Bioherbicidal Agents in Agriculture: Composition and Antioxidant Activity
(Institute of Botany and Botanical Garden "Jevremovac", University of Belgrade, 2024) Bayar, Yusuf; Yılar, Melih; Akşit, Hüseyin; Genç, Nusret
This study aims to investigate the composition of the leaf essential oil and the total phenolic and flavonoid contents as well as the antioxidant activity of the n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol extracts of Vaccinium myrtillus leaves collected from two different locations (Muğla and Mersin, Turkey). In addition, the antifungal activity against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum (SS), Fusarium oxysporum f sp. melonis (FOM), Fusarium oxysporum f sp. cucumerinum (FOC), and Rhizoctonia solani (RS) and the bioherbicidal activity against Taraxacum officinale and Rumex crispus were evaluated for the first time. The methanolic extract inhibited mycelium growth of SS, FOM, FOC, and RS in a dose-dependent manner. No significant difference was observed in antifungal activity between the two different collection sites. In the bioherbicidal activity tests, the methanol extract of the fruits completely suppressed the root-shoot development of Taraxacum officinale, while also significantly inhibiting the root-shoot development during the seed germination of Rumex crispus compared to the control group at 3 mg/mL concentration for both locations. Based on the results of the GC/MS analysis, the major constituents identified in the leaf essential oils collected from the Muğla and Mersin locations were α-pinene (29.16%/15.75%), eucalyptol (22.19%/26.46%), linalool (12.66%/25.27%), and linalyl acetate (7.43%/2.71%). The total phenolic and flavonoid contents of the plant extracts for the Muğla and Mersin samples were determined as (42.80‒157.58 GAE/g extracts), (29.38‒151.44 GAE/g extracts) and (10.52‒37.88 QE/g extracts), (14.81‒44.18 QE/g extracts) respectively. In addition, the plant exhibited significant antioxidant activity. These findings indicate quantitative differences in the chemical composition of the essential oils between the two geographical locations. These findings are significant as they provide insights for the development of new natural antifungal agents with potential applications in agriculture.
The Effect of a Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Program on Depression and Quality of Life in Cancer Patients
(Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2025) Aytaç, Tufan; Özmaya, Esma; Uzun, Sevda
Mindfulness-based interventions have been receiving growing attention in cancer care. This study was performed to determine the effect of a mindfulness-based stress reduction program on depression and quality of life in cancer patients. The screenings in the study were performed in January to May 2023 through the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), PubMed, Web of Science, Science Direct, and YÖK Thesis Center databases. After the reviews, 14 studies were included in the study. This meta-analysis showed that mindfulness-based stress reduction programs were effective on depression (SMD: −0.363; 95% CI: −0.711 to 0.015; Z = −2.042; P = .041; I2 = 85.229%) and quality of life (SMD: 0.363; 95 CI%: 0.111-0.615; Z = 2.822; P = .005; I2 = 75.222%). The type of cancer (SMD: 0.385; CI: between 0.005 and 0.528; P = .000); duration of therapy (SMD: 0.243; CI: between 0.093 and 0.393; P = .002); the person providing therapy (SMD: 0.335; CI: between 0.133 and 0.507; P = .001); scale used (SMD: 0.290; CI: between 0.148 and 0.432; P = .000); and the origin of the study (SMD: 0.298; CI: between 0.158 and 0.438; P = .000) moderators were found to play a role in the effectiveness of a mindfulness-based stress reduction program on the quality of life of cancer patients. The mindfulness-based stress reduction program yields positive outcomes by reducing depression, enhancing the quality of life in cancer patients, and promoting overall mental well-being in individuals.
