Integrative review of artificial intelligence applications in nursing
Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the nursing profession, presenting significant opportunities and challenges. Despite its promising potential in enhancing nursing education, clinical practice, and operational efficiency, critical barriers related to ethics, workforce adaptation, and humanistic care persist. Aim: This integrative review systematically evaluates the integration of AI in nursing practice, with a speci…
Economic, ethical, and regulatory dimensions of artificial intelligence in healthcare
Background: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing healthcare by improving diagnostic precision, streamlining clinical workflows, and reducing operational costs. Yet, its integration into real-world settings remains fraught with challenges-including economic uncertainty, ethical complexities, fragmented regulatory landscapes, and practical implementation barriers. A growing body of literature highlights that many of AI's purported benefi…

The aim was also to identify barriers influencing access to treatment or prevention. Methods: The search was conducted using PubMed/Medline, CINAHL, Scopus, and ScienceDirect. A mixed methods appraisal tool was used to…
Life experiences leading to the choice of surgery—A qualitative study exploring reasons behind the choice of undergoing gender affirmative surgery
Socio-cultural expectations, combined with enacted stigma, seem to cause, or re-enforce self-stigma as people internalize these attitudes and suffer from physical and mental consequences as a result. Thus, societal, and cultural trends seem to have a strong influence and feed the idea of being born in the wrong body. However, even though several participants underwent socially inspired alterations, they all experienced dysphoria in the extent tha…
Imagine, 7 Years Without a Future”
Asylum seekers are in an extraordinary situation as their future life depend on decisions made by authorities in a bewildering, bureaucratic system, with excessive waiting and unpredictable timeframes. Those that are not granted asylum, and not able to return to their country of origin, can neither spatially nor temporally visualize if, when or how a potential change is going to occur. This paper is part of a larger study based on narrative inter…
Sexually destroyed or empowered? Silencing female genital cutting in close relationships
Based on fieldwork among Kurdish-Norwegian migrants, this study explored how female genital cutting (FGC) was a silenced topic between mothers and daughters, and between men and women. The silence was often broken when FGC was discussed as a practice that needed to be rejected. The main reasons for rejecting FGC were to support women's rights and to recognise the negative ways in which FGC affected women's sexuality. This way of breaking the sile…
The Past, the Present, and the Future
The experience of time has a decisive influence on refugees' well-being and suffering in all phases of their flight experiences. Basic safety is connected both developmentally and in present life with a feeling of continuity and predictability. Refugees often experience disruption of this basic sense of time in their home country due to war, persecution, and often severe traumatization, during flight, due to unpredictable and dangerous circumstan…
Challenges related to providing care for parents with dementia across borders
Migration requires people to re-define their caring roles, develop new caring strategies and negotiate the scope of care with the family in the country of origin. The main aim of this paper is to identify and describe challenges related to transnational care provided for people with dementia. Transnational caring itself poses many challenges for families but caring for a person living with dementia can be especially difficult. The qualitative dat…
Understanding dementia in ethnically diverse groups
As the number of older immigrants in Europe rises, dementia within minority ethnic populations warrants attention as a significant public health problem. Equitable health and care services constitute a prioritised health policy aim on both supranational and national levels in Europe and is formulated in the Norwegian health legislation. Through interviews and focus groups with older immigrants, relatives of immigrants with dementia and health per…
Why did I circumcise him?’ Unexpected comparisons to male circumcision in a qualitative study on female genital cutting among Kurdish–Norwegians
Based on fieldwork that aimed to gather more knowledge on female genital cutting among Kurdish–Norwegians, in this article we report on how research participants would often talk about male circumcision instead. Informed by current scholarship and public discourse on female genital cutting and male circumcision, we identified three themes when analysing how and why the participants would talk about male circumcision rather than female genital cut…
Child marriage of female Syrian refugees in Jordan and Lebanon
BACKGROUND: The Syrian conflict has resulted in major humanitarian crises. The risk is particularly high amongst female children who face additional gendered risks, such as harassment and sexual violence, including a rise in prevalence of child marriage. Despite the importance of this topic, current literature remains relatively scarce. OBJECTIVES: This study aims to explore the social and healthcare repercussions of Syrian refugee child marriage…
Negotiating Female Genital Cutting as a Difficult Characteristic in Kurdish National Identity
Based on fieldwork among Kurds in Norway, this article explores how participants described the presence of female genital cutting (FGC) in Kurdistan as a difficult topic to address in public. Perceptions of how FGC should be addressed ranged from acknowledging and directly confronting it to silencing and rejecting it as a Kurdish practice. The participants associated FGC with a 'traditional mindset' and perceptions of female sexuality that did no…
Dementia and Migration
This article focuses on cognitive impairment and dementia in the context of transnational migration. Based on data from focus group discussions and interviews, we conclude that to adjust to the needs of care within ethnic-minority communities, it is important to consider not only the availability of household and kin members but also the present understanding of obligation and reciprocity underlying the perception of care. Another important issue…
From disease to desire, pleasure to the pill
This study highlights numerous gaps between adolescent information needs and information provided by parents, teachers and health professionals. The priority these trusted sources place on providing biological information overshadows learning about emotional and relational aspects of sexuality. This biological rationalization of adolescent sexual behaviour neglects the way gender inequality, peer-pressure, coercion, media eroticization and religi…
Sexuality? Amillion things come to mind
Although Chile is a traditionally conservative country, considerable legal advances in sexual and reproductive rights over the past decade have brought discourses on sexuality into mainstream political, social and media agendas. In light of these changes it is important to explore how adolescents conceptualize sexuality, which in turn influences their understanding of sexual rights. This study is based on four focus group discussions and 20 semi-…
Female genital cutting in Hargeisa, Somaliland

Two main groups of participants were interviewed: (1) 22 representatives of organisations whose work directly relates to female genital cutting; and (2) 16 individuals repres…
Barriers and enablers in the management of tuberculosis treatment in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Non-adherence to tuberculosis (TB) treatment is an important barrier for TB control programs because incomplete treatment may result in prolonged infectiousness, drug resistance, relapse, and death. The aim of the present study is to explore enablers and barriers in the management of TB treatment during the first five months of treatment in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Qualitative study which included 50 in-depth interviews and two focus groups with TB…
Perception and Management of Tuberculosis Symptoms in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
