Enhancing Community Health Volunteers In Screening Indonesian Community-Dwelling Older Adults, Riksa Wibawa Resna, Ching-Min Chen, Tram Thi Bich Nguyen

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Indonesia faces a shortage of healthcare professionals (3.84 per 1,000 population, compared with the WHO standard of 4.45). Additionally, Community Health Volunteers (CHVs) play a crucial role in community-based geriatric care in Indonesia. However, their competencies in conducting Intrinsic Capacity (IC) screening remain limited.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a structured training program in improving CHV knowledge and skills related to intrinsic capacity screening.
A pre–post quasi-experimental design was employed with a total of 120 eligible CHVs recruited from three PHCs through purposive judgmental sampling. The two-day training program and a month of personal guidance were implemented …

Mental Health Concerns And Stigma In Online Education: Access To And Awareness Of Student Resources, Stacey L. Knight, J. T. Seaman

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Online education offers valuable access to students who face barriers to attending traditional in-person courses (Canty et. al., 2020; Wiitavaara & Widar, 2025). However, students may experience social isolation, anxiety, and feelings of loneliness, and the stigma surrounding mental health can further intensify these challenges (Lister et al., 2023; Rutkowska et.al., 2022; Smith & Alheneidi, 2023). This stigma may lead students to minimize their symptoms, avoid acknowledging their concerns, or feel reluctant to seek assistance. Consequently, many students may remain unaware of available mental health resources or feel discouraged from accessing them (Cody et al., 2024).

ScholarsArchive Data

A quantitative, cross-sectional study was conducted over an approximately three-year period with sample collection events occurring March 13-21, 2023, March 17 – 23, 2024, and February 18 – 26, 2025. Samples were taken across 4 brick kilns in Bhaktapur, Nepal, including Kiln 1 in 2023, Kiln 2 in 2024, and Kilns 3 and 4 in 2025. Participants (N = 248) were recruited by convenience sampling from kiln 1 (n = 49), kiln 2 (n = 70), kiln 3 (n = 69), and kiln 4 (n = 60).

Knowledge-Enhanced Feature Store For Operational Ml And Llm Workflows, Saurabh Suman

Master's Theses

Modern machine learning (ML) organizations rely on feature stores to manage training and production data, yet as catalogs grow to thousands of features, semantic management becomes the bottleneck: discovery, governance, and metric selection remain largely manual. This thesis proposes and evaluates a knowledge-enhanced feature store that augments a dual-plane store with a hybrid knowledge layer—relational provenance, a lineage graph, semantic vector retrieval, and an online cache—and an LLM-driven multi-agent layer for profiling, matching, grounded metric recommendation, and pipeline generation. A working prototype was evaluated across three task families—semantic profiling, feature-matching retrieval, and discovery—using classification, ranking, and operational metrics computed by …

Empathy As Activism: Empathy Fostering Tactics Of Minoritized Contemporary Artists, Nicole J. Rudolph-Vallerga

Master's Theses

In the 1980s to 1990s, movements emerged such as the U.S Multiculturalism Movement which responded to the Reagan era’s (1981-1989) conservate wave in the United States. Alongside these movements, many artists of minoritized identities (BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, women, disabled, etc.) were under attack and made art designed to inspire an empathetic response in the viewer as a form of defensive activism. These artists created art designed to protect themselves and their marginalized communities by provoking an empathetic connection between the viewer and the artist’s minoritized community to combat internalized stereotypes. I apply Heidi Maibom’s theory of “moral imagination” to activist art …

Legal Shifts And Judicial Inconsistencies In Strict Liability After The Omnibus Law: A Critical Analysis Of Indonesian Environmental Law For Responsible Mining And Esg Compliance, Nurul Listiyani, Khenza Atthaya Namira Yulianto

Journal of Environmental Science and Sustainable Development

The legal significance of strict liability in mining arises from the sector’s capacity to generate technically complex, diffuse, and long-latency environmental harm that is difficult to address through fault-based litigation alone. This study aims to evaluate how the post-Omnibus Law reformulation of Article 88 of Law No. 32 of 2009 has affected the doctrinal autonomy, judicial consistency, and practical enforcement of strict liability in Indonesian environmental law. The research used normative doctrinal legal research including statutory, case-law, conceptual, comparative, and evaluative analyses. The data cover the 2009–2025 period and consist of two core statutory formulations of Article 88, the Job …

Painless Leg Weakness Revealing A Falcine Meningioma In The Postpartum Period, Brent A. Spiteri, John Capodilupo, David Spiteri

Student Publications

Low back pain is among the leading causes of disability worldwide and is common in pregnancy, which can lead a clinician to a musculoskeletal diagnosis. We describe a 41-year-old postpartum woman who presented to an outpatient office with mechanical low back pain and painless weakness of the left lower extremity that had caused three falls. A thorough history established that the weakness was non-radicular and unaccompanied by sensory loss, and the neurologic examination localized the deficit to the upper motor neuron rather than to a lumbar root or peripheral nerve. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed a large extra-axial …

When To Refer A Child With High Blood Pressure, Corinn Cross, Douglas Blowey

Pediatrics in Practice: A CME Podcast

Should my child with persistent high BP see a specialist? Douglas Blowey, MD, Director of the Hypertension Clinic at Children's Mercy - Pediatrics in Practice - CME, outlines practical referral triggers for pediatricians. He discusses persistent or stage‑2 hypertension, symptomatic or emergency presentations, age under six, evidence of kidney disease or protein/blood on urinalysis, and failure of lifestyle changes — plus the initial tests primary care should obtain before referral.

Scaling Nursing Immersive Virtual Reality Simulation: Multisite Outcomes And Lessons Learned, Cynthia Bradley, Carol Flaten

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Background: Immersive virtual reality (IVR) is shifting from an educational novelty to an essential strategy for preparing practice ready nurses. While programs increasingly adopt IVR to provide consistent clinical learning, there is limited guidance on how IVR impacts knowledge and clinical competence when scaled across multiple sites. By giving every student standardized complex scenarios, IVR supports competency based assessment while expanding simulation access for programs with limited infrastructure.

Purpose: Describe outcomes from implementing a competency based IVR sequence across six prelicensure nursing programs and a nurse residency, with emphasis on what supported successful replication.

Methods: Six nursing programs in large …
