Purpose: To explore the effect of nursing based on the hopeless self-esteem theory plus multi-dimensional intensive nursing on the self-esteem level and prognosis of elderly patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) complicated with depression.
Methods: Eighty patients with ACI complicated with depression who were treated in our hospital from September 2018 to September 2020 were selected and randomized into the observation group and the control group (n = 40 each). The observation group received the model of hopeless self-esteem theory combined with multi-dimensional intensive nursing, while the control group received conventional nursing. The clinical efficacy, depression degree, self-esteem level, living ability, quality of life, and attribution mode were compared.
Results: The overall effective rate was reported at a notably higher rate in the observation group (90.00%) compared to the control group (65.00%) (P < 0.05); After intervention, the observation group had a markedly lower Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) score than the control group (P < 0.05); After intervention, the observation group showed appreciably higher Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale (RSES) score and Barthel index compared to the control group (P < 0.05); After intervention, the observation group had a remarkably higher level of the quality of life in all dimensions than the control group (P < 0.05); After intervention, there were more positive events in the observation group as compared to the control group (P < 0.05), whereas there were more negative events in the control group as compared to the observation group (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: The hopeless self-esteem theory combined with multi-dimensional intensive nursing can apparently increase the self-esteem level of patients, establish a positive attribution mode, beef up their self-confidence, reduce the degree of depression, upgrade their postoperative living ability and quality of life, and improve prognosis and clinical efficacy.

Could less be enough: sublobar resection vs lobectomy for clinical stage IA non-small cell lung cancer patients with visceral pleural invasion or spread through air spaces.
Int J Surg
January 2025
Department of Thoracic Surgery, West China hospital, SiChuan University, Chengdu, China.
Background: While recent randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that sublobar resection is non-inferior to lobectomy, the comparative efficacy of these procedures remains uncertain for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC; ≤ 3 cm) exhibiting invasive features postoperatively, such as visceral pleural invasion (VPI) or spread through air spaces (STAS).
Materials And Methods: To identify eligible studies, a comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science was conducted through 25 July 2024. Studies were screened according to predefined criteria in accordance with PRISMA guidelines.

The theory of expertise suggests that there should be observable differences in the eye movement patterns between experts and non-experts. Previous studies have investigated how expertise influences eye movement patterns during cognitive tasks like reading. However, the impact of expertise on eye movements in comics, a multimodal form of text, remains unexplored.
