To get through to survive: Exploring the symptom cluster management process during oncological treatment from the perspective of patients with lung cancer - A grounded theory study.
Eur J Oncol Nurs

Faculty of Health, Science, and Technology, Department of Health Sciences, Karlstad University, Karlstad, Sweden; Department of Bachelor's in Nursing, Lovisenberg Diaconal University College, Oslo, Norway. Electronic address:
Purpose: To explore the symptom cluster management process from the perspective of patients with lung cancer within the oncological care context.
Methods: We used a constructivist grounded theory methodology to collect and analyze rich data from 15 patients with lung cancer via individual interviews and a two-dimensional symptom assessment scale.
Results: A situational theoretical model describes the symptom cluster management process through the main category 'To get through to survive', with the category 'Handling symptom clusters' together with six sub-categories concerning the patients' management strategies and the category 'Living with symptom clusters,' together with two sub-categories describing the outcome in their daily life.
"Challenging behavior" in dementia care: ethical complications of a well-intentioned concept.
Front Psychiatry

Faculty for Education and Social Sciences, Institute for Social Sciences, University of Oldenburg, Oldenburg, Germany.
Uncommon behaviours such as aggression, apathy or restlessness are described as challenging behaviours in dementia care. On the one hand, this concept describes a practical problem faced by care staff and, at the same time, defines normatively how care staff should deal with this problem. A frequent benchmark here is the dignity of the person in need of care, which caregivers should also respect in the case of challenging behaviour.

Objectives: Exploring adjustments to the voriconazole dosing program based on therapeutic drug monitoring results to implement individualized therapy.
Methods: PubMed and Embase were systematically searched to obtain study about voriconazole dose adjustment program guided by therapeutic drug monitoring. Quality evaluation and summarization of the obtained studies were performed to obtain program adjustments for voriconazole under therapeutic drug monitoring.
Auto-tuning of filtered proportional-integral-derivative controller for industrial processes under routine operating conditions.
ISA Trans

Department of Automation, Xiamen University, Xiamen City 361000, China. Electronic address:
In general, auto-tuning implementation of PID controllers relies on dual controllers, exciting/identification experiments or some prior knowledge on the process and hence the considerable cost on auto-tuning implementation occurs. To deal with such a problem, a new auto-tuning scheme of the FPID controller is developed for minimum variance tasks under routine operating conditions in which the closed-loop system is running without any external excitation other than natural disturbances. This paper reveals that the stochastic disturbance model can be uniquely determined from the first several terms of the impulse response coefficients of the closed-loop system when the precondition on the time delay and the order of the disturbance model is satisfied.

Introduction: Radiography students experience high levels of stress due to demanding academic studies and clinical training. Expanding this study to different settings could provide insights for customized interventions. This study aims to investigate the prevalence and causes of stress experienced by radiography students across university settings in Egypt, the UAE, and Jordan, with particular attention to gender-based differences.
