Introduction: Diabetes is a metabolic disorder that can cause considerable disability and mortality. The aim of controlling diabetes is to normalize blood glucose levels to reduce the progression of vascular and neurological complications. Blood glucose control and reassurance are essential for planning health care. Objective: In the present study, the effect of local isopropyl alcohol and chlo...

Employers and the nursing workforce: seeking local solutions to a national problem.

Confronting barriers to universal screening for domestic violence.

Nationally, domestic violence has reached epidemic proportions. Universal screening is a vital means to identify those women who suffer in abusive relationships with intimate partners. Collaborative efforts between a community shelter for abused women and a local medical center's emergency department resulted in the development and implementation of a universal screening process.

A narrative review of patient education in emergency departments: challenges and solutions

Patient education in emergency departments faces complexities and challenges due to the wide variety of clinical care provided in this setting. Despite widespread recognition of the value and benefits of education, we frequently see that patient education in hospital emergency departments is less than optimal and that emergency departments are not employed as venues conducive to providing suita...

The analytical solutions for Volterra integro-differential equations within Local fractional operators by Yang-Laplace transform

In this paper, we apply the local fractional Laplace transform method (or Yang-Laplace transform) on Volterra integro-differential equations of the second kind within the local fractional integral operators to obtain the analytical approximate solutions. The iteration procedure is based on local fractional derivative operators. This approach provides us with a convenient way to find a solution ...
