Limited Health Literacy (HL) is an obstacle to accessing and receiving optimal health care and negatively impacts patients’ quality of life, thus making it an urgent issue in the health care system. Visual-based interventions are a promising strategy to improve HL through the use of visual aids and pictorial materials to explain healthrelated concepts. However, a comprehensive summary of the literature on the topic is still scarce.

Existing knowledge on healthcare use and costs in the last months of life is often limited to one patient group (i.e., cancer patients) and one level of healthcare (i.e., secondary care). Consequently, decision-makers lack knowledge in order to make informed decisions about the allocation of healthcare resources for all patients.

Evidence - based practice (EBP) has not only emerged as a trend but has also established itself as a standard in nursing professional practice. Consequently, it is imperative that undergraduate nursing students are proficient in EBP before graduation. This study aims to evaluate nursing students’ competencies (knowledge, skills, and attitudes) in EBP.

Infertility for dummies was conceived by combining Jackie’s knowledge of infertility from a patient’s viewpoint, Sharon’s wealth of information as an infertility nurse, and both of their personal experiences. We wrote this book so that patients dealing with infertility will know that they’re not alone. We hope it finds its way to the bookshelves and nightstands of all the patients who need it to help find their road to their baby.

Genetic suppression occurs when the deleterious effects of a primary “query” mutation, such as a disease-causing mutation, are rescued by a suppressor mutation elsewhere in the genome. Methods To capture existing knowledge on suppression relationships between human genes, we examined 2,400 published papers for potential interactions identified through either genetic modification of cultured human cells or through association studies in patients.
