Background: The breastfeeding self-efficacy is one of the psychological factors affecting the duration of breastfeeding; the Breastfeeding self-efficacy measured by the breastfeeding self-efficacy scale-short form (BSES-SF). It was validated and reliable in several studies. The current systematic review aimed to comprehensively review the validity and reliability of the BSES-SF in various versi...

Grid-free Monte Carlo methods such as walk on spheres can be used to solve elliptic partial differential equations without mesh generation or global solves. However, independently estimate the solution at every point, and hence do not take advantage of high spatial regularity solutions problems. We propose a fast caching strategy which first estimates values derivatives randomly sampled points ...

From genre to interdisciplinary and trans-medial artistic practice, “autotheory” has attracted great attention for formally distilling a troublesome contradiction of dualistic opposition between theory practice in arts attempting solve it. In this paper, autotheory is understood as the joining reflective thinking through “collective self” “theory”. Based on Lauren Fournier’s research, paper inv...

Caring and nursing are so intertwined that nursing always appeared on the same page in a Google search for the definition of caring. Caring is “a feeling and exhibiting concern and empathy for others; showing or having compassion” (The Free Dictionary, 2002, para. 2). As these definitions show, caring is a feeling that also requires an action. Dr. Jean Watson’s caring theory is well known in nu...

Methods Variable-density Poisson Disk Distribution (VD-PDD) undersampling was applied for 4D flow imaging. By applying VD-PDD independently at each time frame (Figure 1a), we achieved random undersampling in both the ky-kz plane and temporal domains. In addition, we applied an improved initial solution for SPIRIT to significantly improve reconstruction accuracy and robustness. We explored the d...
