Purpose: This study aimed to examine the relationship between future core nursing competencies and key variables, identifying factors influencing these competencies among senior nursing students. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 150 third- and fourth-year nursing students in South Korea. Based on King’s Dynamic Interaction System Model, perceived work value and individual innovative behavior were categorized as personal systems, interpersonal competence as an interpersonal system, and adhocracy culture as a social system. Participants completed self-reported online questionnaires to assess factors influencing future core nursing competencies. Results: Hierarchical multiple regression analysis identified interpersonal competency (β=0.32, p=.012) and adhocracy culture (β=0.23, p=.010) as significant predictors of future core nursing competency explaining 30.9% of the variance. Conclusion Enhancing future core nursing competency among senior nursing students requires continuous education and counseling programs to strengthen interpersonal competency. Establishing an adhocracy culture involves recognizing creative ideas, fostering open communication for freely expressing ideas, and encouraging innovation. Therefore, developing interpersonal competence and promoting an adhocracy culture is essential for improving future core nursing competency in senior nursing students.

The Korean Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) Committee within the Korean Society of Surgical Metabolism and Nutrition was established to develop ERAS guidelines tailored to the Korean context. This guideline focuses on creating the most current evidence-based practice guidelines for ERAS purposes, based on systematic reviews. All key questions targeted randomized controlled trials exclusively, and if fewer than 2 were available, studies employing propensity score matching were also included. Recommendations for each key question were marked with strength of recommendation and level of evidence following internal and external review processes by the committee.

Purpose: Relative energy deficiency in sport (REDs) is a syndrome of physiological and/or psychological functioning experienced by female and male athletes that is caused by exposure to problematic low energy availability. For the prevention and intervention of REDs, awareness of REDs among sports physicians is important, but it is largely unknown. This study aimed to survey the awareness and clinical treatment experience of REDs in sports physicians. Methods: We conducted an online survey to assess awareness of the triad and REDs among sports physicians and members of The Korean Society of Sports Medicine. Results: A total of 69 members (62.2% male, including sports physicians) to this survey. Most participants (84.1%) were aware of the triad compared to fewer with awareness regarding REDs (23.2%). People who knew about the difference between REDs and triad was 33.3%, which was lower than those who did not (66.6%). Only 10.1% of the study subjects had experience treating REDs patients, and the biggest difficulty in treating patients was a lack of information and education (50.7%). It appeared that the most information about REDs was obtained from academic conferences (59.4%). Conclusion This survey found relatively low awareness of REDs among physicians treating athletes and sports professionals. Considering the various negative effects of REDs on athlete health and performance, education and promotion are needed to increase awareness among sports physicians and sports professionals.

Lupus mastitis is a presentation of lupus panniculitis that involves subcutaneous fat in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Moreover, lupus mastitis is a rare condition that typically presents as a palpable breast mass. Here, we report the case of a 29-year-old woman with a prior diagnosis of SLE who presented with palpable lumps in both breasts.Imaging studies were performed, and mammography revealed extensive and bizarre calcifications, mainly in the retromammary area. US revealed large irregular calcifications with posterior shadowing, and breast MRI images exhibited diffuse irregular persistent rim enhancement in the retromammary area. An US-guided biopsy was performed to differentiate the condition from breast cancer and confirmed the diagnosis of fat necrosis, consistent with the pathological characteristics of lupus mastitis. Herein, we present a case of lupus mastitis, an unusual clinical manifestation of SLE, and discuss the clinical, pathological, and imaging findings supporting the diagnosis and the differential diagnosis.
