Article Abstract
Aims: This review examined the impact of virtual reality (VR) training on nursing students' clinical skill performance and identified essential features of VR training.
Background: VR provides immersive content, simulating real-life scenarios and preventing errors in clinical settings.
Design: This systematic review and meta-analysis followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines.
Data Sources: Studies were obtained from Ovid-EMBASE, MEDLINE, CINAHL and PubMed.
Review Methods: Studies related to VR training published from 1 January 2000 to 8 May 2024 were included. Comprehensive Meta-Analysis 4.0 software was used for meta-analysis and random effects meta-regression. The overall effect was assessed with Hedges' g and Z-statistics (p < 0.05). Heterogeneity was measured using I-squared (I) statistics.
Results: Among the 31 476 studies, 11 randomized controlled trial studies were included. Meta-analysis demonstrated a significant improvement in clinical skill performance, with a medium to large effect (g = 0.61) in the VR group (Z = 3.80, p < 0.001). Subgroup analyses highlighted higher nursing skills in the VR training topic. Meta-regression revealed that the VR training topic (β = 1.23, p < 0.001) and method of VR training (β = -0.53, p = 0.05) were significant covariates influencing clinical skill performance.
Conclusion: VR training improves nursing students' clinical skill performance, addressing shortcomings in the clinical practicum.

Impact of sleep disturbances on health-related quality of life in postmenopausal women: a systematic review.
Menopause
September 2025
Bayer Consumer Care, Basel, Switzerland.
Importance: Sleep disturbances are common during and after the menopause transition, with potential effects on morbidity and quality of life; however, they may be underdiagnosed and undertreated.
Objective: We carried out a systematic literature review to investigate the prevalence and impact of sleep disturbances associated with menopause on women's health-related quality of life across the stages of menopause.
Evidence Review: Searches were conducted in PubMed and Excerpta Medica Database to identify articles published between 2013 and 2023 containing evidence for the impact of sleep quality on health-related quality of life and the epidemiology of sleep disturbances in women in menopause.

Arterial thrombosis is a multifaceted process characterized by platelet aggregation and fibrin deposition, leading to the occlusion of blood vessels. It plays a central role in cardiovascular conditions such as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke. Gaining insight into the mechanisms underlying arterial thrombosis is essential for developing effective treatments aimed at preventing thrombotic events and reducing associated health burdens.

Introduction There is no definitive, comprehensive guide for diagnosing stuttering in multilingual speakers, and research suggests that monolingual-based diagnostic criteria may lead to misidentification in this population. This systematic review aimed to identify and consolidate conventional diagnostic guidelines for multilingual speakers and evaluate their validity in light of empirical evidence on stuttering and multilingualism. Method A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Science Direct, SAGE, CINAHL, and Google Scholar using specific MESH terms (e.
