Alleviating Symptoms of Body Integrity Dysphoria Through Augmented Reality–Based Therapeutic Intervention
Vol.2(2); Pages:1-9. Published on October 2025
Abstract
Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID) is a rare and complicated disorder related to the individuals who feel a severe misconfiguration between the physical body and internal body image so that they usually desire to amputate healthy limbs. There are no currently established treatment strategies of long-term clinical response in an ethically accepted or valid manner.This paper proposes a new solution of applying augmented reality (AR) technology to stimulate the process of amputation and measure its impact on the BIID-related distress.Two men with BIID took part in a pilot experiment with an AR system named Augmented Reality Telepresence to the Ideal Self (ART-IS). The computer assisted technology allowed their alienated limbs to be virtually removed using head mounted displays and chroma key imaging. The verbal Likert scale and the physiological markers such as the rate of heart rate, respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) as well as pre-ejection period were considered to evaluate the symptom reactions.Both of the patients showed a condition of temporary but significant distinction in symptoms when exposed to AR. The responses have shown to be mostly positive in the emotional front, but the physiological evidence showed engagement but not increased distress. One patient has said that she was symptom-free several days after the session.Such results allow assuming that visual simulation of the ideal body image in AR could have both therapeutic and diagnostic importance when used by people with BIID. There is a need to carry out further research on bigger samples and longer follow-up studies.

Reframing Disability Through Choice: Applying the Social Model to Body Identity Discrepancy Disorders
Vol.2(2); Pages:10-18. Published on October 2025
Abstract
The Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID) raises a peculiar medical issue: the people diagnosed with this disorder feel the strong urge and necessity to amputate (the right leg, arm, etc.) the healthy body parts and they consider the parts as disconnected with the internal vision of their own bodies. Opponents of therapeutic amputation claim such amputation goes against the principle of nonmaleficence since it leaves a permanent disability to a physically healthy individual. Nevertheless, this criticism has been phrased in terms of a conventional biomedical attitude which conflates impairment and disability and disability and harm. In this article, this expectation is contradicted with the introduction of the Social Model of Disability (SMD) that separates the statement of physical impairment and the description of the construction of disability in society. The paper claims that elective amputation is not necessarily harmful since it is not inevitable that it will lead to disability simply because the debate was shifted on the basis of the SMD. Rather, when there are social and environmental accommodations that are properly carried out, persons having elective impairments need not feel excluded or disadvantaged in a sense that is normally synonymous with disability. The reconceptualization would allow a reconsideration of nonmaleficence in regard to BIID and allow the possibility of ethically permissible treatment amputations.

Brain Morphology and Limb Detachment Perception: Revealing Neural Signatures in Body Integrity Identity Disturbance
Vol.2(2); Pages:19-27. Published on October 2025
Abstract
Body Integrity Identity Disorder (BIID) is a rare neurological condition characterized by an intense and persistent desire to become physically disabled typically through amputation or paralysation stemming from a mismatch between one’s internal body image and actual physical form. While this disorder is suspected to have congenital origins, concrete neuroanatomical evidence has been limited.In this study, high-resolution T1- weighted structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were obtained from eight individuals diagnosed with BIID and 24 matched healthy controls using a 3 Tesla MRI scanner. The brain images were analyzed using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) to detect structural differences in grey matter volume. Compared to healthy controls, individuals with BIID exhibited significantly reduced grey matter volume in the left dorsal and ventral premotor cortices, as well as increased grey matter volume in the left cerebellar lobule VIIa. These structural brain differences suggest that BIID may involve dysfunctional integration of multisensory inputs critical to body ownership perception. The anomalies observed in the premotor cortex and cerebellum regions essential for sensory-motor integration and the sense of self—support a neurobiological basis for BIID and strengthen the argument to view it as a legitimate neurological disorder rather than solely a psychological condition.

Enhancing Self-Concept in Individuals with Mental Disorders Through Mental Health Nursing Interventions: An Integrative Literature Review
Vol.2(2); Pages:28-37. Published on October 2025
Abstract
Self-concept is a multidimensional, multi-faceted, and broad construct that has increasing significance when it comes to the mental care-related sphere. Self-esteem, identity, role performance and body image are its primary elements. In mentally ill persons, any breakdown in any of these elements may cause poor self-concept.: Find, evaluate, and summarize mental health nursing-related interventions that strengthen the self-concept of persons with mental disorders. The study is an integrative literature review that was carried out through the EBSCO platform or more specifically CINAHL Complete and MEDLINE Complete databases in June 2021. In the search strategy, one used the Boolean combination, Mental disorder AND Self-concept AND Psychiatric nursing. They qualified to be taken into consideration should they be published between January 2011, and January 2021, written in Portuguese or English, with people aged between 13 and 64 having mental disorders, and addressing nursing interventions that would target the self-concept in any given setting of care. There were 648 articles at the start of the search, yet only 2 passed the inclusion criteria. Studies that were included in the study were of quantitative, observational, longitudinal design. The nursing interventions addressed mainly on self-esteem by targeting recovery programs in the form of a group. Even though none of the studies tackled all levels of self-concept, both of them yielded positive results of enhancement of self-esteem after intervention. An integrative review conducted has found an available group of mental health nursing interventions that concentrate on self-esteem and self-image. They were comprised of psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring and behavioural skills, which are based on cognitive-behavioural models.

Vol.2(2); Pages:38-46. Published on October 2025
Abstract
The research aim is also the exploration of educational significance of an educational card game to hone verbal communication skills of English language amongst culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) students enrolled by a nursing school. Awareness of any spoken English deficiency as a possible barrier to integration into the clinical roles, the intervention involved a card game that is intended to facilitate the use of pragmatic markers, which are common expressions that allow conveying speakers intent within a context. There was a descriptive qualitative study to which 45 second-semester nursing students were administered in an Australian metropolitan university. In playing the game and through follow up surveys, the participants indicated that they were more aware of the conversational English, were now more confident and motivated to start an English conversation. Three main themes, which are educational content, skills progression, and fun by being creative, have been identified as to represent the necessity of interactive and socially engaging learning environments. The results have practical implications on practicing teachers preparing to assist in inclusive and disciplinespecific language development and refer to future research on digital versions and increased usage in other health disciplines.

A Pre-Experimental Study to assess the Effectiveness of Specific Nursing Intervention on Low Back Pain Among Patients with Intervertebral Disc Prolapse at selected hospital, Chennai
Vol.2(2); Pages:47-59. Published on October 2025
Abstract
Intervertebral discs are also a major cause of low back pains even without herniation because they are vulnerable to torsional injuries and internal disc dislocation. The production of pain is usually associated with either chemical or mechanical stimulation of the nerve endings in the annulus fibrosus. The current research was designed to assess the efficacy of a specific nursing intervention that would help to decrease the cases of low back pain in the group of patients with intervertebral disc prolapse and hospitalized in one of the chosen hospitals in Chennai. A general systems theory formed the conceptual framework that informed the current study and pre-experimental design was used. The participants were selected through a non-probability purposive method to sample 60 participants. Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) was used to measure the baseline pain intensity. After the pre-test assessment, intervention included the education of the subjects on correct body mechanics and use of hot fomentation. The level of pain was measured again with the same NPRS tool at the end of the intervention. The findings revealed the mean pre-test pain group was 6.88 with SD (1.79) that reduced to 2.15 with SD (1.14) in post-test. The t -test value (t = 17.276, p < 0.001) confirmed the statistical significance of the decrease in pain, with the mean difference in pain being 4.73. These results show that the targeted nursing interventions of proper body mechanics training and hot application are quite effective in the management of low back pain in patients with intervertebral disc prolapse.

Blue Light: A Silent Threat to Eye Health
Vol.2(2); Pages:60-64. Published on November 2025
Abstract
In the digital age, screen exposure has become an unavoidable aspect of daily life, significantly increasing blue light exposure from electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, and computers. Blue light, a high-energy visible (HEV) light, penetrates deep into the eye, potentially causing digital eye strain, characterized by dryness, irritation, headaches, and blurred vision. Prolonged exposure to artificial blue light, especially during evening hours, disrupts melatonin production, affecting sleep quality and overall well-being. Over time, unregulated exposure may contribute to retinal damage and increase the risk of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Despite these risks, blue light is not inherently harmful; natural blue light from sunlight plays a crucial role in regulating circadian rhythms, enhancing mood, and improving cognitive function. However, excessive artificial exposure necessitates protective measures. Effective strategies include reducing screen time, especially before bedtime, using blue light filters or protective glasses, adjusting screen brightness, and following the 20-20-20 rule—taking a 20-second break every 20 minutes to look at an object 20 feet away. These preventive steps can mitigate eye strain, improve sleep quality, and reduce long-term vision risks. As technology continues to advance, raising awareness about blue light exposure and promoting eye care habits are crucial for maintaining visual health. By adopting proactive measures, individuals can enjoy the benefits of digital technology without compromising their eyesight, ensuring long-term ocular well-being in a screen-dominated world.

Optimizing rTMS for Depression: Best Practices and Key Influencing Factors
Vol.2(1); Pages:6-14. Published on April 2025
Abstract
Players in the field consider repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) a proven non-invasive therapy for treating depression patients who do not respond to conventional treatments. Clinical efficacy receives substantial research attention but scientists have not thoroughly studied the non-treatment elements that affect the success of rTMS delivery. The study details practitioner insights about optimal approaches for enhancing non-treatment aspects which incorporate clinic setup and patient relations together with healthcare staff preparation and both managerial and clinical backing. Qualitative assessments of healthcare staff encounters reveal four main concepts: putting patients first in care delivery while also requiring expertly trained personnel who must follow medical standards and work in supportive workplace settings. The success of rTMS therapy depends on logistical factors which include session organization and patient comfort systems as well as adherence monitoring systems that support treatment effectiveness and long-term clinical results. Treatments adherance together with patient satisfaction respond strongly to the psychological and psychosocial factors which include patient expectations alongside therapeutic alliance. Research demonstrates the need to combine superior medical practice with operation optimization as a comprehensive solution for enhancing the effectiveness and access to rTMS depression therapy. Insights gained from such non-treatment factors serve as critical knowledge to enhance TMS practice quality while enhancing treatment results and guiding neurostimulation therapy policy and guidelines.

Word-of-Mouth in Healthcare: Current Research Trends and Future Directions
Vol.2(1); Pages:23-32. Published on April 2025
Abstract
WOM customer communication functions as an essential force that influences healthcare service usage together with patient selection and physician reputation building. Traditional marketing approaches differ from WOM since the practice delivers information about healthcare services through trusting personal experience combined with social impact and professional trust. Patients now transform their healthcare information sharing and seeking through online health communities enabled by digital platforms which produce electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM). Existing research on Word-of-Mouth practices in the healthcare industry receives analysis through this review along with important findings and theoretical foundations and empirical investigations. This article classifies WOM research studies into three primary segments including: (1) patient-to-patient WOM, (2) patient-to-provider WOM and (3) eWOM within digital healthcare settings. The analysis describes why WOM unfolds based on service quality and patient satisfaction and trust levels and demonstrates its effects on healthcare choice-making and patient interaction and medical provider assessment results. The review describes what researchers have missed in their work by pointing out the necessity of carrying out extended time-based studies and conducting analyses between different cultural settings and applying AI methods within WOM research contexts. Research directions moving forward will focus on how social media affects WOM as well as understanding the influence of healthcare influencers and managing WOM ethically in medical environments. The study delivers essential knowledge which helps healthcare providers and policymakers alongside researchers make strategic use of Word of Mouth to deliver better healthcare service quality to patients.

The Role of Storytelling in Enhancing Patient-Centered Care in Nursing
Vol.2(1); Pages:33-40. Published on April 2025
Abstract
The awareness of storytelling as a fundamental tool now drives nurse practitioners to pursue its use during patient care sessions and teaching practices and scholarly research. This research discusses how narrative approaches develop a comprehensive healthcare methodology through both empathy development and enhanced clinical communication and strengthened nursing interaction with patients. Clinical practice benefits from patient storytelling which helps both patients and nurses exchange valuable experiences as well as values and beliefs and enables customized care based on cultural understanding. Within nursing education narratives enhance student development of emotional intelligence together with critical thinking ability and reflective practice before they transition to practice with patients. Research utilizes storytelling as a qualitative approach to understand both medical experiences between patients and nurses which reveals important healthcare findings regarding practices and important issues. Healthcare professionals who use storytelling methods reduce information gaps between emotions and cognition because this approach protects humanistic and individualized care delivery. The paper demonstrates that storytelling develops therapeutic bonds while enabling shared decision-making and achieving better patient results in order to sustain essential patient-centered care principles.
