Article Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of a health education intervention based on the Behaviour Change Wheel (BCW) theory and Teach-Back method on the self-management of older adults empty nesters with comorbid hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus (HTN-T2DM). 76 patients were divided into two groups: the text group received health education based on the BCW theory and Teach-Back method, and the control group received general health education. After the intervention, statistically significant differences were found between the two groups in fasting blood glucose levels and diabetes self-management scores at time points, intergroups, and time-group interactions. The text group had better blood pressure levels and hypertension self-management scores than the control group. Our findings suggested that an educational approach based on the BCW Theory and Teach-Back method proved more effective than a general health education program in improving the self-management skills of older adult empty nesters with comorbid HTN-T2DM.

To provide foundational information for the development of a training program to prepare school nurses to deliver a mental health focused SBIRT (Screening, Brief Intervention, Referral to Treatment) approach, this study aimed to describe how school nurses perceive their role in addressing student mental health concerns and determine if these perceptions align with the components of SBIRT. We used content analysis to summarize open-ended survey responses of 38 school nurses to the question "What role do school nurses play in addressing student mental health?" Findings revealed 19 responses aligned with at least one component of SBIRT, one aligned with all three, and 30 focused mainly on forming trusting relationships with students. We conclude school nurses do not implement SBIRT in a systematic way but view its components as consistent with their role.

Introduction: Cognitive frailty (CF), which typically precedes dementia and functional decline, serves as a more robust predictor of adverse health outcomes compared to physical frailty alone, representing a critical challenge in promoting healthy aging among older people living with HIV (PLWH) aged ≥ 50 years. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of cognitive frailty and identify its associated factors among PLWH aged ≥ 50 years.
Methods: A convenience sample of 344 PLWH ≥ 50 years was recruited from a tertiary Grade A hospital in Zunyi, China.

This review article, developed by the EASD Global Council, addresses the growing global challenges in diabetes research and care, highlighting the rising prevalence of diabetes, the increasing complexity of its management and the need for a coordinated international response. With regard to research, disparities in funding and infrastructure between high-income countries and low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are discussed. The under-representation of LMIC populations in clinical trials, challenges in conducting large-scale research projects, and the ethical and legal complexities of artificial intelligence integration are also considered as specific issues.
