Objective: The study aims to analyze the correlation between hope levels and resilience in patients with severe novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19).

Methods: Fifty-six patients with severe COVID-19 were investigated, with the use of a general information questionnaire, the Herth Hope Index, and the Connor-Davidson resilience scale.

Results: There was a significant difference in patients' hope levels with respect to marital status and educational background (P < 0.05), and there was a significant difference in resilience scores depending on gender and family economic situation (P < 0.05). In the present study, the hope levels and resilience in the patients were moderate, with an average score of (34.93 ± 5.45) and (69.36 ± 15.52), respectively. There was a significant positive correlation between the hope level and the resilience score in these patients (P < 0.05).

Conclusion: In patients with severe COVID-19, the higher the hope level, the higher the resilience score.

Background: Undernutrition remains a global crisis and is a focus of Sustainable Development Goals. While there are multiple known, effective interventions, complex interactions between prevention and treatment and resource constraints can lead to difficulties in allocating funding. Simulation studies that use in silico simulation can help illuminate the interactions between interventions and provide insight into the cost-effectiveness of alternative packages of options.

Break through the mold: Hyper-IgE syndrome as a vehicle for invasive aspergillosis.

Respir Med Case Rep

December 2024

Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Department of Medicine, University of Nebraska Medical Center, Omaha, NE, USA.

Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome (HIGES) is a rare immunodeficiency characterized by high levels of immunoglobulin E (IgE) in the setting of various clinical features such as cutaneous candidiasis, asthma, recurrent rashes, and fungal infections. This case describes a 70-year-old male with cachexia and dyspnea found to have a cavitary lesion and aspergilloma, with remarkably high IgE and positive 1,3-β-D-glucan and Aspergillus testing. Herein, we describe the aforementioned case, review the available literature, and hypothesize the connection between invasive fungal infections and HIGES.

Enhanced detection of measurement anomalies in cartridge cases using 3D gray-level co-occurrence matrix.

Forensic Sci Int

January 2025

Department of Forensic Science and Technology, Sichuan Police College, No. 186, Longtouguan Road, Jiangyang District, Luzhou 646000, China; Sichuan Provincial Key Lab of Intelligent Policing, No. 186, Longtouguan Road, Jiangyang District, Luzhou 646000, China. Electronic address:

The firing pin impression left on the base of a cartridge case is a critical analytical feature in forensic science. To address the limitations of traditional manual trace analysis and mitigate the risk of secondary damage to physical evidence, we employ a line laser displacement sensor to capture and analyze three-dimensional (3D) traces of fired cartridge cases. However, when using laser displacement sensors to collect traces from metal cartridge cases, the high curvature and reflectivity of the metal surface can cause specular reflections, potentially leading to measurement anomalies in the firing pin impressions.
