AI Article Synopsis
- * Data was collected from 432 nurses through surveys and analyzed to correlate bullying with incidents like central-line-associated bloodstream infections, showing a significant link.
- * The authors suggest that tackling bullying in nursing workplaces could lead to improved patient safety and reduced adverse events.
Article Abstract
Background: Negative nurse work environments have been associated with nurse bullying and poor nurse health. However, few studies have examined the influence of nurse bullying on actual patient outcomes.
Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine the association between nurse-reported bullying and documented nursing-sensitive patient outcomes.
Methods: Nurses (n = 432) in a large US hospital responded to a survey on workplace bullying. Unit-level data for 5 adverse patient events and nurse staffing were acquired from the National Database of Nursing Quality Indicators. Generalized linear models were used to examine the association between bullying and adverse patient events. A Bayesian regression analysis was used to confirm the findings.
Results: After controlling for nurse staffing and qualification, nurse-reported bullying was significantly associated with the incidence of central-line-associated bloodstream infections (P < .001).
Conclusions: Interventions to address bullying, a malleable aspect of the nurse practice environment, may help to reduce adverse patient events.

Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Oncology, National Cancer Center Hospital, Tokyo, Japan.
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) for perivascular soft-tissue cuffing (PSTC).
Methods: This single-center, retrospective study evaluated patients in whom EUS-TA was performed for PSTC in pancreatic or bile duct cancer lesions between October 2017 and March 2024. PSTC was defined as a perivascular soft-tissue area contiguous with nearby blood vessels from the suspected primary tumor.
Endoscopic hemostasis with a self-assembling peptide gel during endoscopic submucosal dissection and cold-snare polypectomy in the duodenum: Prospective exploratory study (with video).

Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Graduate School of Medical Science, Kyoto Prefectural University of Medicine, Kyoto, Japan.
Objectives: A novel self-assembling peptide gel (SAPG) was recently developed for hemostasis during endoscopic resection (ER) as an alternative for electrocoagulation and clip placement. Therefore, this exploratory study aimed to evaluate the hemostatic effect of SAPG on bleeding during ER of the duodenum.
Methods: Patients with superficial duodenal epithelial tumors who underwent endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) or cold-snare polypectomy (CSP) between June 2022 and October 2023 were enrolled in the study.
Efficacy of a Novel Adjustable Snare Technique Versus the Conventional Technique for Converting the Orobiliary Catheter to a Nasobiliary Catheter.

Department of Gastroenterology, Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.
Background And Object: It is a challenging step to guide a nasobiliary catheter from the mouth to the nasal cavity in endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD), and new methods are always being explored to improve the procedure. We have developed a novel device which is composed of a dedicated adjustable snare and a tongue depressor-like handle, for completing oral-nasal conversion of the ENBD tube. In this study, we aim to assess the utility of our new technique in repositioning the ENBD catheter by comparing it with conventional guidewire technique.

Aim: Percutaneous vertebroplasty is generally considered a safe procedure, however, cases of cardioembolism and cardiac perforation have been reported.
Case Presentation: A 69-year-old woman was referred to our emergency department after an outpatient echocardiogram revealed a "thrombus-like" formation involving the right heart. Two weeks before she had undergone percutaneous vertebroplasty of the third to fifth lumbar vertebrae due to osteoporotic fractures.
Analysis of Short-Term Prognostic Factors of Posterior Single Open-Door Laminoplasty in Patients with Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy.

Department of Painology, The First People's Hospital of Tongxiang City, 314500 Tongxiang, Zhejiang, China.
Aim: Posterior cervical expansive open-door laminoplasty (ELAP) is one of the main methods for the treatment of multilevel cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). However, some patients are vulnerable to developing complications such as kyphosis and axial symptoms after ELAP, potentially facing adverse prognosis following the procedure. At present, there are few reports on the short-term prognostic factors in Chinese patients with CSM after undergoing ELAP.
