AI Article Synopsis
- The research explores how one instance of helping between different groups influences attitudes and cooperation among their members.
- Previous studies mostly overlooked group identities or assumed a shared identity, but found that helping can lead to negative intergroup attitudes.
- The study, involving 1,249 participants, discovered that while feelings of closeness weren't strongly affected by intergroup helping, cooperative behavior did increase among both the beneficiary and the witnesses of the helping act.
Article Abstract
This research investigated how an instance of intergroup helping affects intergroup attitudes and cooperative behavior. Past research demonstrates that helping behavior elicits prosociality, both reciprocally and toward uninvolved third parties. However, much of this research has either ignored group membership altogether or has assumed a shared group identity between benefactor and beneficiary. Where intergroup helping has been directly evaluated, more negative intergroup attitudes are often observed. The current study examined the effects of an instance of intergroup helping, introduced during a card game, on the beneficiary's attitudes of closeness and cooperative trading behavior as well as those of ingroup and outgroup witnesses to the helping act. Results from this well-powered study ( = 1,249) indicate that although intergroup helping is less likely to impact feelings of closeness, intergroup cooperative trading increases for both the beneficiary and the intergroup observers. These findings add to the understanding of how helping impacts intergroup relations.

Comparative evaluation of coronally advanced flap and semilunar coronally repositioned flap, using platelet-rich fibrin in Miller's Class I recession defects: A randomized clinical trial.
J Indian Soc Periodontol
December 2024
Department of Periodontology, Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India.
Background: For a periodontist, treating recession is always a proud moment and a challenging task. The current trial aimed at comparing and clinically evaluating semilunar coronally repositioned flap (SCRF) and coronally advanced flap (CAF) procedures combined with platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) in the management of Miller's Class I recession defects.
Materials And Methods: Thirty-six recession sites were randomly divided into the CAF or SCRF groups.
RESTORE ME: a RCT of oxaloacetate for improving fatigue in patients with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome.

Center for Complex Diseases, Seattle, WA, United States.
Background: The energy metabolite oxaloacetate is significantly lower in the blood plasma of ME/CFS subjects. A previous open-label trial with oxaloacetate supplementation demonstrated a significant reduction in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS)-related fatigue.
Methods: In this follow-up trial, 82 ME/CFS subjects were enrolled in a 3-month randomized, double-blinded, controlled study, receiving either 2,000 mg of oxaloacetate or control per day.
Background: Advanced lung cancer typifies the challenges of participatory decision-making in oncology. With a limited prognosis for survival, the increasingly numerous and complex treatment options must continually be weighed against issues of fragility, quality of life, and the end of life.
Methods: This randomized, controlled trial, carried out on 138 patients, concerned the use of a decision aid combined with decision coaching, versus standard care.
Dependency-Oriented Versus Autonomy-Oriented Help: Inferred Motivations and Intergroup Perceptions.
Behav Sci (Basel)

Intergroup helping is a crucial interaction behavior between groups, which can be classified as either dependency-oriented or autonomy-oriented help. The widely recognized model of intergroup helping relations as status relations proposes that dependency-oriented help enables the helper group to maintain its dominant position. In other words, when a helper group has the motivation to preservation of their intergroup status, it will be more inclined to provide the recipient with dependency-oriented help.

Department of Gastroenterology, Affiliated Rugao Hospital of Xinglin College, Nantong University, Nantong 226500, Jiangsu Province, China.
Background: Acute pancreatitis (AP), as a common acute abdomen disease, has a high incidence rate worldwide and is often accompanied by severe complications. Negative emotions lead to increased secretion of stress hormones, elevated blood sugar levels, and enhanced insulin resistance, which in turn increases the risk of AP and significantly affects the patient's quality of life. Therefore, exploring the intervention effects of narrative nursing programs on the negative emotions of patients with AP is not only helpful in alleviating psychological stress and improving quality of life but also has significant implications for improving disease outcomes and prognosis.
