Mentorship in surgical training; a systematic scoping review to inform a mentorship framework for ophthalmology trainees.

Background: Mentorship plays a vital role in surgical training. In the field of ophthalmology, effective mentorship is particularly critical due to the specialised nature of surgeries and the need for comprehensive skill development. However, the landscape of mentorship remains underexplored.

Fibrosis and Src Signalling in Glaucoma: From Molecular Pathways to Therapeutic Prospects.

Glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness, is characterised by progressive optic nerve damage, with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling in the lamina cribrosa (LC) contributing to its pathophysiology. While current treatments focus on IOP reduction, they fail to address the underlying fibrotic changes that perpetuate neurodegeneration. The Src proto-oncogene, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase, has emerged as a key regulator of cellular processes, including fibroblast activation, ECM deposition, and metabolism, making it a promising target for glaucoma therapy.

I want you to feel bad: Understanding the role of anger in extrinsic interpersonal affect worsening with ecological momentary assessment.

Previous research has demonstrated how people are motivated to induce negative feelings in others, a phenomenon known as extrinsic interpersonal affect worsening. This process has been linked to decreased well-being for those involved in regulating these emotions. However, prior studies have primarily centered on experimental scenarios, neglecting the emotions (such as anger) experienced by those regulating extrinsic affect worsening as possible predictors.
