Occupational strain and job satisfaction: The job demand-resource moderation-mediation model in haemodialysis units.

Aim: To examine whether job resources moderate the relationship between job demands and occupational strain, and whether occupational strain mediates the relationship between job demands and job satisfaction.

Background: The job demand-resource model suggests that job demands and job resources are related to occupational strain, and occupational strain is associated with job satisfaction.

Methods: In 2018, a cross-sectional study was conducted with a convenience sample of 85 nurses from six haemodialysis units.

Utility of first positron emission tomography-computed tomography scan as a prognostic tool following treatment of sinonasal and skull base malignancies.

Background: The prognostic value of the first posttreatment whole body integrated positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) scanning in patients with sinonasal/skull base malignancies is undetermined.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the data of all patients that underwent surgery for sinonasal/skull base malignancies in 2000-2015. The results of the pretreatment and posttreatment PET/CT findings and the clinical course were retrieved.
