Work-family balance mediates self-efficacy and subjective well-being among nurses in Chinese intensive care units: A cross-sectional study.

Background: ICU nurses frequently confront lengthy working hours, elevated job intensity, heavy medical responsibilities, round-the-clock shifts, and a comparatively closed working environment. The high-risk, high-intensity, high-stress nature of the profession may prompt nurses to consider resignation, culminating in a significant shortage of nursing staff, adversely affecting the health and well-being of nurses. Necessitating a comprehensive investigation into the factors influencing their subjective well-being and the interrelations among these factors, thereby establishing a theoretical foundation for a more focused intervention program aimed at enhancing the subjective well-being of nurses.

Reducing time for vascular access salvage: initial results from a single institution's clinical practice improvement programme.

Background: One of the most common causes of arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and/or arteriovenous graft (AVG) failure is thrombosis. Guidelines recommend early AVF salvage within 24-48 hours. Our institution reported poor compliance with these recommendations, with a median of 3 days prior to vascular access (VA) salvage.

CmbZIP19 inhibits lateral bud elongation via the brassinolide pathway in chrysanthemum.

Branching is the main factor that determines plant architecture and is closely related to plant adaptation to the environment. Cold stress can inhibit lateral bud elongation in plants, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Here, we report that the cold stress-induced bZIP family transcription factor CmbZIP19 inhibits lateral bud elongation in chrysanthemum.

Identifcation of the FGF family as therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers in the microenvironment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

Background: Almost 90% of head and neck malignancies are malignant squamous cell cancers, making it the sixth most common malignancy in the developing countries, with an overall five-year overall survival rate about 40%-50%. Early diagnosis and treatment can bring a better prognosis. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) is an important polypeptide in vivo.

High-altitude chronic hypoxia prevents myocardial dysfunction in experimental model of type 2 diabetes.

Background: High-altitude chronic hypoxia (CHH) has a favorable impact on the lower prevalence of diabetes together with the better glucose tolerance. However, whether it prevents diabetic cardiomyopathy remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of CHH on left ventricular (LV) function in experimental model of type 2 diabetes.
