Objectives: To investigate the nurses' perception about interruptions during the workflow and their implications on the professional practice environment.
Methods: A survey was conducted with 133 nurses in a school hospital in the state of São Paulo from October 2015 to March 2016, through the use of a self-administered questionnaire. For data analysis, Chi-square and Fischer tests have been used.
Results: Most of the nurses have reported frequent and recurring interruptions during their work activities. The interruptive processes are more frequent during the documentation process (n=118; 91.5%) and guidance to the patient/family (n=58; 45%). They are caused by the ringing of the phone (n=114; 87%), and by problem solving in the unit (n=107; 81.7%).
Conclusions: According to the nurses' opinion, the interruptive processes have repercussions on the working dynamics, on the caring process and on the patient's safety.

Purpose: Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IIRI) occurs as a result of temporary blood flow interruption, leading to tissue damage upon reperfusion. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in this process, instigating inflammation and cell death. Identifying and characterizing genes associated with the oxidative stress response can offer valuable insights into potential therapeutic targets for managing IIRI.

Although metal-organic frameworks are coordination-driven assemblies, the structural prediction and design using metal-ligand interactions can be unreliable due to other competing interactions. Leveraging non-coordination interactions to develop porous assemblies could enable new materials and applications. Here, we use a multi-module MOF system to explore important and pervasive impact of ligand-ligand interactions on metal-ligand as well as ligand-ligand co-assembly process.

Analyzing over two hundred mammalian genomes, we found remarkable consistency in the shape of the distribution across evolutionary epochs. All observed genomes harbor an excess of long repeats, which are prone to developing into repeat expansion disorders.

We tested this hypothesis using a visual oddball task. A repetitive sequence interrupted by a novel stimulus is a "local" oddball.

Mass vaccination represents a highly effective strategy for accelerating disease control while simultaneously reducing incidence and mortality rates. By developing comprehensive plans and standards for mass vaccination, it is feasible to optimize resource allocation and swiftly enhance vaccination coverage, thereby preventing, controlling, or interrupting outbreaks or epidemics of specific infectious diseases. To standardize the mass vaccination process and establish a population immunity barrier in an orderly, efficient, and safe manner, a panel of experts was convened to develop the Recommendations on Mass Vaccination.
