Objective: The aim of this study was to understand newer nurses' perception and expectations of their work environment, professional and institutional satisfaction, and motivating/decision-making factors around nursing and intent to leave their positions.
Background: Studies have shown newly graduated nurses face many challenges transitioning from a student to an independently practicing nurse. The COVID pandemic complicated this transition and created new stressors resulting in discouragement and turnover for newer nurses.
Methods: This study used a qualitative approach through purposive sampling, semistructured qualitative interviews, and content analytic techniques. Transitional Shock Theory was used as the theoretical framework.
Results: Four themes emerged from the study: 1) confronting the reality; 2) betrayal/mistrust; 3) relational integrity; and 4) enablers of clinical competence.
Conclusions: The findings will help nurse leaders understand the importance of organizational-level supports to improve the transition of newer nurses in typical periods and in times of additional stress.

Employment responses to a partner's disability onset (care shocks'): Do working conditions matter?
J Gerontol B Psychol Sci Soc Sci
December 2024
Department of Global Health & Social Medicine, King's College London, London UK.
Objectives: This study examines employment responses to a partner's disability onset and how this is moderated by working conditions: job satisfaction and psychosocial job demands.
Methods: We use longitudinal nationally representative data from the English Longitudinal Study of Aging. Following the health shock literature, we identify individuals whose partners report the onset of difficulties in activities of daily living (ADL) or instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) between two waves (n=1,020) as experiencing a 'care shock'.

Introduction: No clear guidelines exist for unfractionated heparin (UFH) monitoring in adult patients on veno-arterial extracorporeal life support (VA-ECLS) for refractory cardiogenic shock. In this study, we sought to compare outcomes between anti-factor Xa (FXa) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) strategies for UFH monitoring during VA-ECLS.
Methods: This is a single-center, retrospective review of VA-ECLS patients who received UFH in the cardiothoracic intensive care unit between July 2019 and November 2023.
Geranylgeranyl Pyrophosphate Promotes Profibrotic Factors and Collagen-Specific Chaperone HSP47 in Fibroblasts.

Fibrosis, characterised by excessive extracellular matrix deposition, contributes to both organ failure and significant mortality worldwide. Whereas fibroblasts are activated into myofibroblasts, marked by phenotypic factors such as α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), periostin, fibroblast activation protein (FAP) and heat shock protein 47 (HSP47), the cellular processes of trans-differentiation for fibrosis development remain poorly understood. Herein, we hypothesised that the molecular signalling of geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP), a crucial biochemical molecule for protein prenylation, is essential in the regulation of profibrotic mechanisms for fibroblast-to-myofibroblast activation.

Hot dry rock (HDR) geothermal is a sustainable and clean energy source. However, its development progress is hindered by creating seepage channels in deep reservoirs with low porosity and permeability. Traditional hydraulic fracturing techniques are ineffective for enhancing the permeability of these high-strength reservoirs.

With a high mortality rate, colon cancer (CC) is the third most common malignant tumor worldwide. The primary causes are thought to be the high invasiveness and migration of CC cells. The functions of Golgi phosphoprotein 3 (GOLPH3), stress-induced phosphoprotein 1 (STIP1), and the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway in the invasion and migration of CC cells were examined in this study.
