Aim: Burnout can affect nurses' patient safety-related attitudes due to adverse conditions it creates in nurses and can lead to medical errors. The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between the patient safety attitudes and pediatric nurses' burnout.
Method: Observational, descriptive and cross-sectional study, carried out between January and July 2016 at Ege University Children's Hospital in İzmir (Turkey). Data was collected using the Sociodemographic Characteristics Questionnaire, the Maslach Burnout Inventory and the Patient Safety Attitude Questionnaire. The data was analysed with the program SPSS. Permission was obtained from the corresponding Ethical Committee.
Results: The response rate was 60%, with a total of 104 participants. Emotional exhaustion was identified in more than half of the participating nurses, with a negative correlation between the attitude towards patient safety and emotional exhaustion. A positive correlation was found between the scores of the Patient Safety Attitude Questionnaire and the scores of the Personal achievement subscale. It was found that the emotional exhaustion score increased as the patient's safety attitude decreased. It was also found that Personal Achievement subscale scores and safety attitude scores of the patient increased.
Conclusion: There is a relationship between the levels of emotional exhaustion of nurses and a decrease in attitudes towards safety, at the same time as personal achievement helps to improve the attitude towards patient safety.

Background: Drug-drug interactions (DDIs) especially antagonistic ones present significant risks to patient safety, underscoring the urgent need for reliable prediction methods. Recently, substructure-based DDI prediction has garnered much attention due to the dominant influence of functional groups and substructures on drug properties. However, existing approaches face challenges regarding the insufficient interpretability of identified substructures and the isolation of chemical substructures.

Background: It was our impression that safety outcome trials were getting more frequent, raising ethical issues mainly related to patient autonomy. We and others had also proposed this autonomy would be best served if wording of the informed consents would be in the public domain.
Methods: Initially two observers and an arbiter tabulated the main aims of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published in 1990-1991 vs.

Ventral hernias pose a prevalent challenge in abdominal wall surgery, with ongoing advancements in repair techniques designed to enhance patient outcomes. This study evaluates the efficacy, safety, and socio-economic impact of Totally Extraperitoneal Sublay Repair (TES) versus Laparoscopic Intraperitoneal Onlay Mesh Repair (IPOM) for small to medium-sized ventral hernias, with a particular focus on postoperative quality of life and patient satisfaction. A retrospective cohort study was conducted, encompassing 125 patients who underwent ventral hernia repair between May 2018 and November 2023.

Purpose: Pituitary adenomas, despite their histologically benign nature, can severely impact patients' quality of life due to hormone hypersecretion. Invasion of the medial wall of the cavernous sinus (MWCS) by these tumors complicates surgical outcomes, lowering biochemical remission rates and increasing recurrence. This study aims to share our institutional experience with the selective resection of the MWCS in endoscopic pituitary surgery.

Direct printed aligners (DPAs) offer benefits like the ability to vary layer thickness within a single DPA and to 3D print custom-made removable orthodontic appliances. The biocompatibility of appliances made from Tera Harz TA-28 (Graphy Inc., Seoul, South Korea) depends on strict adherence to a standardized production and post-production protocol, including UV curing.
