Article Abstract
BackgroundEthical decision-making in nursing significantly impacts population health, yet systematic analyses of factors influencing this process remain scarce.AimThe aim is to systematically evaluate factors influencing ethical decision-making in clinical care and provide a reference for follow-up nursing ethics education, medical institution management, and policy research in this field.Research DesignThis study was conducted using a mixed-methods systematic review design. In December 2024, we searched PubMed, Web of Science, Wanfang Data, VIP Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure for studies on factors influencing nursing ethical decision-making. The search covered records from each database's inception to 1 December 2024. After literature screening and quality assessment, quantitative and qualitative data were extracted following the Joanna Briggs Institute Mixed-Methods Review guidelines. Core influencing factors were identified through thematic synthesis.Ethical ConsiderationsEthical review was not required for this study.ResultsSeventeen studies were included (13 quantitative and 4 qualitative). Thematic integration revealed four categories of influencing factors: nurse-related factors (e.g., professional identity perception), patient-related factors (e.g., clinical condition changes), team dynamics (e.g., collaboration among healthcare providers), and decision-making context (e.g., workload intensity), totaling 17 specific factors.ConclusionNursing ethical decision-making is influenced by personal, patient-related, team-related, and contextual factors. Strategies to enhance this process include improving nurses' ethical competence, fostering teamwork, optimizing decision-making environments, and integrating findings into clinical practice.

Stemming from human immune organs, tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs) hold unique strengths in differentiation potential and immune regulatory functions. These characteristics make them valuable for therapeutic applications, particularly in regenerative medicine and autoimmune disease treatment, as they can modulate immune responses and promote tissue repair. Their ability to interact with various cell types and secrete a range of bioactive molecules further enhances their role in orchestrating healing processes, making them a promising avenue for innovative therapies aimed at restoring balance in the immune system and facilitating recovery from injury or disease.

The ability to navigate through one's environment is crucial for maintaining independence in daily life and depends on complex cognitive and motor functions that are vulnerable to decline in persons with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). While previous research suggests a role for mobility in the physical act of navigation, it remains unclear to what extent mobility impairment and perceptions of mobility constraints may modify wayfinding and the recall of environment details in support of successful navigation. Therefore, this study examined the relations among clinical mobility function, concern about falling, and recall of environment details in a clinical sample of MS.

Alterations in skeletal muscle morphology and composition are critical factors in cerebral palsy (CP), including changes in passive stiffness and in belly and fascicle lengths. In this study, we quantified the relative contributions of muscle and tendon to passive stiffness across the ankle range of motion in individuals with CP and typically developing (TD) peers. We also investigated morphological factors underlying increased muscle stiffness.

Walking is essential for maintaining independence and quality of life, yet aging may impair the neuromuscular function required for stable gait over time. This study sought to quantify age-related differences in step-to-step control during prolonged walking using detrended fluctuation analysis (DFA). We hypothesized that step-to-step changes in step length and step width would exhibit reduced temporal persistence over time, with more pronounced effects in older than in younger adults.

Individuals with mental health difficulties in Iceland can be detained in police cells as a last resource place of safety when psychiatrists consider patients unsuitable for admission to a ward, for example, due to being under the influence of substances or being too violent. We aimed to investigate if detainment in a police cell affected symptoms of mental illnesses, and subsequently if police cells are an appropriate place of safety for patients in Iceland. We used a mixed methods approach utilising administrative records of detainees' visible symptoms of mental illnesses and ten semi-structured interviews with mental health professionals and police sergeants.
