Background: Intensive care unit (ICU) nurses work under heavy workloads, which can lead to serious consequences for nurses' outcomes and patient safety. This study aimed to examine the relationship between professional quality of life (Pro QOL), and sleep quality among ICU nurses during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Methods: A cross-sectional and multicentre study was conducted on 253 nurses in 20 COVID-19 ICUs in four major teaching hospitals from July 2021 to June 2022.
Early prediction of poor outcomes in patients impacted with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is crucial for timely intervention and effective management. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the performance of machine learning (ML) algorithms in predicting poor outcomes in patients with aSAH, assessing their sensitivity, specificity, and other algorithm metrics. A comprehensive search of PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Web of science and Cochrane library conducted to identify eligible studies.

The CEO with 5, 10, and 15 % w/w were loaded in the EGNPs. The EGNPs containing 10 % w/w CEO had the highest encapsulation efficiency (92.

Sorghum waste serves as the silica source in the adsorbent preparation process, ensuring an eco-friendly approach. The benzo-15-crown-5 ionic liquid is coupled to thiol-functionalized fibrous silica spheres through an efficient thiol-ene click reaction.

- The study investigates how photobiomodulation (PBM) affects the testis of prepubertal male mice exposed to heat stress, which is known to damage testicular health.
- Twenty-four male mice were divided into three groups: a control group, a hyperthermia group, and a hyperthermia plus PBM group, where heat was applied to induce stress and laser therapy was used to assess its protective effects.
- Results showed that the PBM treatment improved sperm quality, increased testicular cell counts, boosted testosterone levels, and reduced harmful oxidative stress, suggesting that laser therapy can help protect the testis from heat damage during critical developmental periods.
