Nursing education is no exception, facing imminent challenges and opportunities. GAI, a unique and immensely powerful technology championed by ChatGPT (Chat generative pre-trained transformer), represents a new frontier in artificial intelligence. ChatGPT, a product of deep learning - a subset of machine learning that mirrors the human brain's approach to learning and responding to data, information, and prompts - exemplifies this technological leap (Sahoo et al., 2022). GAI stands out for its ability not only to provide responses but also to generate the content of those responses, surpassing the human-like interactions typically seen in conversational AI (Lim et al., 2023; Su & Yang, 2023). Currently, ChatGPT has demonstrated significant application potential in nursing education in various aspects. For example, ChatGPT provides personalized learning (Tam et al., 2023); is easy to use (Vaughn et al., 2024); provides rapid information (Goktas et al., 2024; Liu et al., 2023), rapid responses, and assistance in writing (Sun & Hoelscher, 2023); improves students' problem-solving and critical thinking skills (Goktas et al., 2024; Sun & Hoelscher, 2023); supports educators in developing curricula and preparing course materials and may be used in translation processes (Tam et al., 2023); and helps healthcare professionals better understand complex medical concepts and procedures by providing easily comprehensible and up-to-date information (Krüger et al., 2023). Therefore, integrating ChatGPT into nursing education not only provides students with a more effective and interactive learning experience but also offers educators supportive tools that are directly applicable in teaching. These technologies can enhance / improve teaching by providing personalized learning solutions through, for example, generating teaching cases and simulating clinical scenarios to enhance the learning experience of students (Liu et al., 2023; Vaughn et al., 2024). Despite the significant benefits realized, nursing education in the era of GAI also faces challenges and limitations. Over-reliance on ChatGPT may limit students' critical thinking, problem-solving, and innovation capabilities, leading to a lack of independent thought. Educators should integrate GAI-supported tools into the learning process, but encourage and guide students to use ChatGPT as a supplementary learning tool rather than a substitute (Tam et al., 2023). This approach will help ensure students develop the skills and knowledge necessary to use the technology responsibly and ethically and allow educators to better address key related challenges, enhance education quality, and lay a foundation for cultivating high-quality nursing professionals. GAI is inevitable, and banning it may lead to increased attention and psychological reactance, making students more eager to access th","PeriodicalId":35672,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nursing","volume":"71 5","pages":"4-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142355620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In recent years, the prevalence of NMA in the medical literature has increased significantly, while advances in NMA-related statistical methods and software tools continue to improve the effectiveness of this approach. Various commercial and free statistical software packages, some of which employ generative artificial intelligence (GAI) to generate code, have been developed for NMA, leading to numerous innovative developments. In this paper, the use of generative AI for writing R programming language scripts and the netmeta package for performing NMA are introduced. Also, the web-based tool ShinyNMA is introduced. ShinyNMA allows users to conduct NMA using an intuitive \"clickable\" interface accessible via a standard web browser, with visual charts employed to present results. In the first section, we detail the netmeta package documentation and use ChatGPT (chat generative pre-trained transformer) to write the R scripts necessary to perform NMA with the netmeta package. In the second section, a user interface is developed using the Shiny package to create a ShinyNMA tool. This tool provides a no-code option for users unfamiliar with programming to conduct NMA statistical analysis and plotting. With appropriate prompts, ChatGPT can produce R scripts capable of performing NMA. Using this approach, an NMA analysis tool is developed that meets the research objectives, and potential applications are demonstrated using sample data. Using generative AI and existing statistical packages or no-code tools is expected to make conducting NMA analysis significantly easier for researchers. Moreover, greater access to results generated by NMA analyses will enable decision-makers to review analysis results intuitively in real-time, enhancing the importance of statistical analysis in medical decision-making. Furthermore, enabling non-specialists to conduct clinically meaningful systematic reviews may be expected to sustainably improve analytical capabilities and produce higher-quality evidence.</p>","PeriodicalId":35672,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Nursing","volume":"71 5","pages":"29-35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142355614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reflecting on the impact of COVID-19, healthcare systems can actively apply EDI in clinical practice to provide to all patients equitable access to healthcare opportunities and outcomes.

Registered nurses play a critical role in assessing the right time to transition from tube to oral feeding and in providing a safe and positive oral feeding experience. In this article, three validated assessment tools for feeding premature infants are introduced, accompanied by clinical research data demonstrating their use in clinical practice. These three tools include: (1) the Neonatal Oral Motor Assessment Scale, which is applied to evaluate oral motor skills using observations of nonnutritive sucking and the sucking state during the two minutes before feeding; (2) the Premature Oral Feeding Readiness Assessment Scale, which is used to assess readiness for oral feeding in preterm infants; and (3) the Early Feeding Skills assessment, which is used to evaluate the oral feeding skills of preterm infants.
