Therapy-Related Symptoms and Sense of Coherence: The Mediating Role of Social Support and Hope in Lung Cancer Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy.

Aim: To investigate the current status of the sense of coherence in lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and explore the mediating role of social support and hope in the relationship between therapy-related symptoms and sense of coherence.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study to investigate lung cancer chemotherapy patients aged 18 years or older who completed at least two cycles of chemotherapy. Patients were recruited from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University's chemotherapy day ward from May to December 2023.

Effect of surfactin on microbial content, appearance quality, and starch properties of fresh noodles during storage.

Fresh noodles (FNs) are prone to quality deterioration during storage, negatively affecting their edibility. This study investigated the impacts of different surfactin concentrations on microbial content, appearance quality, and starch properties in FNs to enhance storage stability and shelf life. The addition of surfactin effectively controlled the microbial growth in FNs during storage, FNs containing 0.

Peierls Distortion Induced Giant Linear Dichroism, Second-Harmonic Generation, and In-Plane Ferroelectricity in NbOBr.

The Peierls distortion plays an essential role in governing the in-plane ferroelectricity and nonlinear optical characteristics of anisotropic niobium oxide dihalides, such as NbOCl and NbOI. Despite its significance, experimental investigation into the structural, optical, and ferroelectric properties of NbOBr has been lacking. Here, the successful fabrication of centimeter-sized, high-quality NbOBr single crystals, enabling direct observation of Peierls distortion using aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy, is reported.

The isolation between part-set cues and social collaboration in episodic memory is dependent: Insight from ongoing and post-collaboration.

It has been demonstrated that both part-set cues and social interaction can produce detrimental effects on memory. Specifically, part-set cues lead to part-set cueing impairment, while social interaction can result in collaborative inhibition. However, there is less evidence on whether these factors have isolated or comparable impacts on memory.
