“…More than one-third (73%) of them were in the academic phase. [18] This is disagreed with by Vijayan et al, and Zeb et al, they reported that half of the study participants (50%) were in the age group of below 20 years, and most (68%) of them were at nursing college. [19,20] The researcher clarified that this is probably related to the fact that most nursing students in Egypt graduated from nursing institutes and the ratio of female gender to male.…”

Background: Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is the most common neurological side effect of chemotherapy. Despite of crucial benefits of chemotherapy, tumor management is often accompanied by severe side effects related to cancer or/and therapeutic interventions. Thus, nursing students' perception will play an important role in managing this painful condition. Objective: This study aimed to compare between the selected students' level of perception toward nursing care among patients with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. Subject and Methods: A crosssectional comparison research design was utilized with convenient samples of two groups that were recruited (Faculty students=224 students and Institute students=398 students). Recruiting a selfadministered questionnaire link to identify and compare between the participants' perception about nursing care for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in the prementioned settings. Results: The findings clarified that more than half of the studied nurses in both study groups were female, and their age ranged 18-22 years. More than half of the studied students in the faculty had a moderate level of perception compared with less than half of them in the institute. There was a statistically significant relationship stated between the student's level of perception about nursing care for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy in the faculty compared to the institute students with their demographic data (p ≤0.05). Conclusion: Definitely, the nursing faculty students in the current study had a high perception level compared to the nursing institute students. Furthermore, there was statistically significant relationship detected between student's level of perception about nursing care for chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy and their affiliations in both study groups with p value≤0.05. Recommendations: Behalf of the study findings continuously directed education courses for students should be prepared to enhance their level of perception and their near-future roles. Further research studies are essential to identify their further education needs and the factors that influence the university students' perception level.

“…( 27) Therefore, it is essential to provide nursing students with adequate and up-to-date knowledge and skills on wound care and management, as they will be future health care workers who will deal with diabetes and its complications.

“…(26)The results of this study are also in line with those of a study conducted in Indonesia in 2022, which reported that 56.8% of participating nursing students had good knowledge and awareness about diabetic foot. (22) These results indicate the existence of educational gaps regarding wound care and the lack of updated diabetic wound care guidelines in the educational curriculum of medical universities.

“…In addition, this study demonstrated that most of the nursing students had a favorable attitude toward diabetic foot. (22) Nursing students will soon become nurses in health care settings, where they will play a vital role in preventing and managing diabetic foot care (as one of the key members of the care team). Therefore, it is essential to assess their knowledge and awareness in this area.…”

Background Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a serious complication of diabetes that can lead to amputation and reduced quality of life. Nurses play a vital role in preventing and managing DFUs by educating, assessing, and caring for diabetic patients. Nursing students, as future health care providers, need to have adequate knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding diabetic foot care and screening. However, there is a lack of studies on these factors among nursing students in Iran.Methods This was a cross-sectional study conducted in 2022. The sample consisted of 200 nursing students from the Tabriz Faculty of Nursing and Midwifery. Data were collected using a questionnaire that included demographic and occupational characteristics, a knowledge questionnaire, an attitude questionnaire, and a diabetic foot screening checklist. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22 software.Results The results showed that approximately 55% of the students had relatively good knowledge, 49% had a positive attitude, and 7.5% had very good practices regarding diabetic foot care and screening. However, more than half of the students had poor knowledge or practice, and some of them considered diabetic foot care to be time-consuming.Conclusion The findings of this study revealed that the nursing students had received previous education about diabetic foot care management, but their knowledge and practice were still inadequate. Their attitude was generally positive, but some barriers existed for translating it into clinical practice. These results suggest that there is a need to improve the curriculum and training methods for nursing students regarding diabetic foot care management and screening. This can enhance their competence and confidence in providing quality care to diabetic patients and preventing DFUs and amputations.

Indonesia menempati urutan kelima dengan penderita diabetes melitus terbanyak di dunia. Manajemen makan harus dilakukan terutama pada penderita diabetes melitus yang menggunakan obat penurun glukosa darah atau insulin. Rumput laut sango-sango atau Gracilaria sp., memiliki potensi sebagai agen antidiabetes. Pengujian aktivitas antihiperglikemik pada model hewan diperlukan sebelum implementasi pada manusia. Penelitian dilakukan dengan pemberian pakan dengan penambahan Gracilaria sp. pada tikus dengan periode yang berbeda. Tikus diberi streptozotocin (50 mg/kg bb) untuk menginduksi diabetes. Hewan dibagi dalam enam kelompok perlakuan: kontrol, kontrol diabetes, tikus diabetes diberi pakan standar dan obat metformin, tikus diabetes diberi Gracilaria sp., selama tiga minggu dan dua minggu, dan tikus normal diberi Gracilaria sp., selama empat minggu. Parameter yang digunakan adalah glukosa darah dan luas area positif ekspresi insulin. Hasil yang didapatkan adalah pemberian streptozotocin mengakibatkan keadaan diabetes pada tikus. Pakan dengan penambahan Gracilaria sp., menunjukkan potensi untuk membantu manajemen hiperglikemik. Hasil yang signifikan ditemukan pada area positif ekspresi insulin. Pemberian pakan dengan penambahan Gracilaria sp., dengan hasil terbaik diperoleh pada pakan dengan pemberian selama tiga minggu.
