Otoscleroma of the Middle Ear and Mastoid Cavity with Facial Palsy: A Case Report.

Introduction: Scleroma is a chronic, specific granulomatous disease that affects the head and neck mucosa. Its common sites are the nose and larynx; however, it might affect other areas. One of the rare sites to be affected is the middle ear and mastoid cavity, for which the term otoscleroma was coined.

A study of chloride binding capacity of concrete containing supplementary cementitious materials.

Chloride-induced steel corrosion is known to be a very common kind of deterioration of reinforced concrete. It is beneficial to bind free chloride ions to reduce the corrosion probability of the reinforcement embedded in the concrete. The binding capacity of the concrete varies according to its cementitious system.

Nursing Professional Commitment as a Mediator of the Relationship Between Work Environment and Missed Nursing Care Among Nurses: A Cross-Sectional Analysis.

Introduction: Nursing care plays a pivotal role in promoting patient well-being and optimizing health outcomes. The nursing profession is characterized by its commitment to delivering high-quality care to patients.

Objective: The purpose of the study was to explore the role of nursing professional commitment as a mediator between the work environment and missed nursing care.

Effect of surface morphology on optical properties of two multilayer structures CuO/ZnO/SiC and AlO/ZnO/SiC.

Zinc oxide (ZnO) and Silicon carbide (SiC) thin films demonstrate unique properties such as high electron mobility, thermal stability, good chemical resistance, and low cost made them good candidates for optical applications. Moreover, semiconductors absorb short wavelengths of light due to the presence of a band gap. This work's purpose is to study the effect of deposited ZnO and SiC thin films by physical vapor deposition (PVD) above two different oxides and substrates.

The Beneficial Effects of Emotional Intelligence Training for Critical Care Nurses on Job Burnout: A Quasi-Experimental Study.

Background: Critical care nurses are at especially high risk of burnout. Burnout is a maladaptive response to work-related stress that is associated with negative consequences for patients. Emotional intelligence enables nurses to make better decisions and manage their patients more effectively.
