Article Synopsis
- - The Resilience Evaluation Scale (RES) is a new self-report questionnaire designed to measure psychological resilience, and this study focuses on its translation and assessment of psychometric properties in a Persian context.
- - The research involved validating the scale's content and construct through various analyses, including exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, and tested reliability using Cronbach's α and correlation coefficients.
- - Results indicated that the Persian version of the RES has strong face and content validity, good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.82), and a solid factor structure, making it a valuable tool for psychological resilience assessment in research and clinical settings.
Background: The number of quality indicators for which clinicians need to record data is increasing. For many indicators, there are concerns about their efficacy. This study aimed to determine whether working with only a consensus-based core set of quality indicators in the intensive care unit (ICU) reduces the time spent on documenting performance data and administrative burden of ICU professionals, and if this is associated with more joy in work without impacting the quality of ICU care.

However, the molecular mechanisms underlying their development, and in particular the role of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), remain incompletely understood. Here, we establish the transcriptomic landscape and alternative splicing patterns of circular RNAs (circRNAs) at key developmental timepoints in mouse mDA neurons in vivo using fluorescence-activated cell sorting followed by short- and long-read RNA sequencing.

Vestibular schwannomas are known to occur in the context of tumour predisposition syndromes NF2-related and LZTR1-related schwannomatosis. However, the majority of vestibular schwannomas present sporadically without identification of germline pathogenic variants.
