This study was performed to identify the relationship between sense of humor, stress, and depression in the nursing students. Data were collected from the 20th of June to the 30th of June in 2015 from 227 nursing students in K university. The collected data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, average, standard deviation, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, kruscal-walis, pearson, spearman, and rank correlation coefficient. The result shows the sense of humor was significantly different between grade (t=-3.814, p <.001) and major satisfaction (${\chi}^2=12.070$, p=.007). The sense of humor was negatively correlated with living stress (r=-.237, p=.001), clinical based stress (r=-.182, p=.007), and with depression (r=-.238, p<.001). This data suggests that sense of humor is relevant in reducing the living stress and clinical based stress. These findings can provide the basis for the development of nursing intervention to increase the ability to cope with stress and depression.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the risk factors for diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) to develop and evaluate the performance of a DFU prediction model and nomogram among people with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods: This unmatched case-control study was conducted with 379 adult patients (118 patients with DM and 261 controls) from four general hospitals in South Korea. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire, foot examination, and review of patients' electronic health records. Multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to build the DFU prediction model and nomogram. Further, their performance was analyzed using the Lemeshow-Hosmer test, concordance statistic (C-statistic), and sensitivity/specificity analyses in training and test samples. Results: The prediction model was based on risk factors including previous foot ulcer or amputation, peripheral vascular disease, peripheral neuropathy, current smoking, and chronic kidney disease. The calibration of the DFU nomogram was appropriate (χ² = 5.85, p = .321). The C-statistic of the DFU nomogram was .95 (95% confidence interval .93~.97) for both the training and test samples. For clinical usefulness, the sensitivity and specificity obtained were 88.5% and 85.7%, respectively at 110 points in the training sample. The performance of the nomogram was better in male patients or those having DM for more than 10 years. Conclusion: The nomogram of the DFU prediction model shows good performance, and is thereby recommended for monitoring the risk of DFU and preventing the occurrence of DFU in people with DM.
