Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, is characterized by chronic recurrent intestinal inflammation, and its primary clinical manifestations are abdominal pain, diarrhea, hematochezia, etc., which seriously affects patients' quality of life.

Objective: To explore the impact of continuing empowerment education based on Roy's adaptation theory on disease uncertainty and self-management ability in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

Methods: Sixty patients with inflammatory bowel disease admitted to the hospital from March 2022 to March 2023 were selected and randomly divided into an intervention group (n= 30) and a control group (n= 30). The intervention group received continuous care based on multidisciplinary Cooperation on the WeChat platform, while the control group received routine constant care. The disease uncertainty, hope level, self-care ability, nursing quality, and nursing satisfaction of two groups of patients were compared.

Result: Both patient groups had lower levels of ambiguity and complexity three months following discharge, with the intervention group exhibiting the lowest levels. On the other hand, the intervention group scored higher on sustaining close connections, taking good action, and having an attitude both now and in the future. The intervention group showed greater health awareness, self-concept, self-care competence, and self-care responsibility ratings. The intervention group also showed more significant attitude, pragmatism, thoroughness, and professionalism in their services.

Conclusion: Continuous empowerment education based on Roy's adaptation theory is applied to patients with inflammatory bowel disease. It can enhance confidence, self-management ability, quality of life, and patient satisfaction.

Genes encoding OXA-48-like carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzymes are often located on plasmids and are abundant among carbapenemase-producing (CPE) worldwide. After a large plasmid-mediated outbreak in 2011, routine screening of patients at risk of CPE carriage on admission and every 7 days during hospitalization was implemented in a large hospital in the Netherlands. The objective of this study was to investigate the dynamics of the hospitals' 2011 outbreak-associated plasmid among CPE collected from 2011 to 2021.

Objective: This retrospective study aimed to determine the need for lymph node resection during surgical treatment in patients with stage IA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Materials And Methods: A total of 1428 patients diagnosed with cT1N0M0 1 A stage NSCLC who underwent surgery were divided into two groups: lymphadenectomy (n = 1324) and nonlymphadenectomy (n = 104). The effects of lymph node resection on overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) and on clinicopathological factors that affected the prognosis of the patients were investigated.

Background: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a standardized procedure for intramucosal and slightly invasive submucosal colorectal cancers (CRC). However, the role of ESD for T1b (depth of submucosal invasion: ≥1,000 μm) CRC remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the long-term efficacy and safety of ESD for T1b CRC.
