The Institute for Healthcare Improvement Framework for Improving Joy at Work includes self-care as a strategy to support happy, healthy, and productive people; however, this relationship has not previously been empirically demonstrated. The purpose of this study was to describe self-care practices and levels of meaning and joy in work (MJW) in a sample of registered nurses and to explore the relationship between self-care and MJW. Registered nurses (n = 122) from a regional health system completed a survey during a nursing recognition event. Measures included a Demographic Questionnaire, the Meaning and Joy in Work Questionnaire (MJWQ), and the Brief Mindful Self-Care Scale (Brief MSCS). The mean MJWQ score was 4.29 on a scale of 1 to 5, and the mean Brief MSCS score was 3.05. There was a significant relationship between MJWQ and Brief MSCS scores ( r = 0.43, P < .001). These results indicate that supporting self-care in nurses may improve MJW.

Purpose: This paper uses data from an ethnographic study of a group of NHS community nurses in England, to analyse their work using labour process theory. A theory influenced by Marxist thinking, which is concerned with the examination of the labour process. This study of the nurses' work provides insights into their labour process, as well as proposing theoretical development relating to labour process theory.

Portal vein thrombosis (PVT) occurs as a part of the natural history of cirrhosis in up to 15% of patients with cirrhosis. In the initial days, PVT was considered a contraindication to liver transplantation, but now with advanced techniques and perioperative management, patients with complex PVT also undergo living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) with a similar outcome. This review provides a comprehensive overview of methods to proceed with liver transplantation when the recipient has PVT.

Objective: In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, a significant number of critical care nurses have left their positions, citing overload, burnout, and moral distress. This scoping review is not just a theoretical exploration but a timely and crucial investigation into the aspects and structures of critical care nursing that can make the job fulfilling and appealing, thereby promoting intrinsic motivation and staff retention.
Methodology: A scoping review of studies reporting on factors that allow critical care nurses to fall back on their intrinsic job motivation.

Objective: Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a high-risk procedure with significant morbidity and mortality and there is an uncertain volume-outcome relationship, especially regarding long-term functional outcomes. The aim of this study was to examine the association between ECMO centre volume and long-term death and disability outcomes.
Design Setting And Participants: This is a registry-embedded observational cohort study.

Mitochondria undergo dynamic morphological changes depending on cellular cues, stress, genetic factors, or disease. The structural complexity and disease-relevance of mitochondria have stimulated efforts to generate image analysis tools for describing mitochondrial morphology for therapeutic development. Using high-content analysis, we measured multiple morphological parameters and employed unbiased feature clustering to identify the most robust pair of texture metrics that described mitochondrial state.
