| Broad Topic Area/Title | To explore the relationship between use four types of ‘at-risk’ prescriptions (mood stabilizers, neuroleptics, decongestants, and anticholinergics with dopamine blockade) and restless legs syndrome (RLS) in patients undergoing dialysis. | A cross-sectional research in a countryside region of Bangladesh to evaluate psychological health situations and its connection with sociodemographic factors. | A study comparing the use and hospitalization healthcare and a healthcare professional acute respirational appraisal services providing home-based treatment to individuals ailing from a COPD exacerbation. |
| Identify Independent and Dependent Variables and Type of Data for the Variables | Independent variable: four cases of at-risk medication and restless leg syndrome. Dependent variable: restless leg syndrome among dialysis patients. Nominal data. | The study’s independent variable is age, which ranges from 18 to 90 years, and the dependent variable is understanding of mental health conditions. Variable data is ordinal data (0-5). | The independent variables are hospital and home care, while the dependent variables are patients’ understanding and experiences with care options, as well as their future care preferences. Ordinal Data |
| Population of Interest for the Study | End-stage renal disease individuals are recorded in the United States Renal Data Systems at any time. (From 1st October 2006 to 31st December 2010. | Adults between the ages of 18 and 90 who live in the Narail region, approximately 200 kilometers southwest of Dhaka.
| COPD patients receiving medical treatment through the Acute Respiratory Assessment Service and individuals admitted to a medical facility with a severe COPD exacerbation. |
| Sample | For this study, a medical data sheet of 16,165 End-Stage Renal Dialysis (ESRD) patients was used. | 2425 Participants that includes 1249 female and 1176 males | 104 Patients comprising of 76 females and 28 male |
| Sampling Method | Patients were chosen using the Convenience sampling method.
| For this study, a multi-stage cluster random sample method was integrated.
| Patients were chosen using a method known as purposive sampling. |

| Inferential Statistics Identify examples of inferential statistics in the article. | The findings suggest that individuals undergoing dialysis are expected to have been recommended the prescription drugs researched, such as antidepressants, neuroleptics, antihistamines, and some antiemetics. | 42.5 percent of the population is aware of any common MHCs, p<0.001. In general, more than half of the participants were unaware of any MHCs, 3.3 percent were knowledgeable of bipolar disorder, 42% were aware of drug addiction, and less than 1% were aware of all MHCs. | The majority of respondents would rather have home treatments than hospital treatments: t (92) =2.78, p0.01). Satisfaction with the level of care: Scale: 0-100 0.84 in terms of dependability |
