The article discusses the importance of academic reading and writing in the education of nursing students in Colombia and Ecuador. Students develop these skills autonomously or by following the teachings of their teachers. The main difficulties arise at the beginning of the career, when students do not understand disciplinary terminology and have difficulties writing academically. The importance of improving the reading and writing experience through support and guidance from universities is highlighted. Additionally, the influence of soft and specific skills in the education of nursing students is mentioned, as well as the responsibility of educational institutions in the development of these skills. The article also provides a list of bibliographic references related to topics in the field of nursing and education. [Extracted from the article]

This study aimed to determine the consumption of benzodiazepines without prescription among first-year students from a nursing school of a public University in Ecuador. This is a descriptive, transversal and explanatory study with a quantitative approach. A questionnaire was used for data collection. The population studied was of 181 students. The results showed that 10.5% of the students had consumed benzodiazepine without prescription once in their lives. Of these, 6.1% consumed benzodiazepine in the last year, and 3.9% are currently consuming it. The diazepam was the most consumed BZD without prescription and pharmacies, were the place of higher access. The main reasons for the benzodiazepine consumption were: insomnia, anxiety, stress, depression, family and economical problems. The use of benzodiazepines with non-medicinal purposes is related to problems such as memory loss, retirement syndrome and sedation. When benzodiazepines are consumed jointly with alcohol or other drugs they can lead to coma or death. This study shows the serious consequences benzodiazepines cause when used by nursing students in Ecuador. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
