The purpose of this descriptive pilot study was two-fold: (a) to test psychometrically an observational instrument designed to measure patient behaviors displayed while unrestrained and receiving a musical intervention; and (b) to determine the effect of a musical intervention on the behavioral reactions of physically restrained patients. The Restraint-Music Response Instrument (RMRI) is a 40-item observational checklist consisting of 22 positive and 18 negative responses developed by the researchers. Content validity was assessed by a panel of experts. The RMRI was tested for interrater reliability using three simulated and 10 actual patients. Results suggest that the RMRI is a valid and reliable measure of patients' responses to music but requires additional study with a control group not receiving the intervention.

Transomental hernia resulting in a closed loop small bowel obstruction: delayed presentation following paediatric blunt abdominal trauma.
BMJ Case Rep

General Surgery, Toowoomba Hospital, Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia.
While internal hernias are rare in the paediatric population, it should be considered as a cause for an acute abdomen following blunt trauma. Internal hernias represent a surgical emergency that requires prompt recognition due to the high risk of strangulation and ischaemia of affected bowel loops. The case of a transomental hernia (TOH) is described in a young girl.

Objectives: Cisplatin (DDP) resistance remains a primary cause of chemotherapy failure and recurrence of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Abnormal high microsomal glutathione transferase 1 (MGST1) expression has been found in DDP-resistant NSCLC cells. This study aimed to explore the function and mechanism of MGST1 in DDP resistance of NSCLC cells.

Objectives: Pathological remodeling after myocardial infarction (MI) confers the development of heart failure. Our prior research has indicated that splenic nerve neuromodulation mitigates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) by reducing levels of proinflammatory factors. This study aims to explore the potential therapeutic benefits of splenic nerve neuromodulation in MI and the underlying mechanism.

Imperial College London, London, England.
Background: Nasogastric tube (NGT) feeding under physical restraint is a clinical intervention that may be required when a child or young person is medically unstable secondary to restrictive eating.
Aim: To explore the experiences of parents when their child receives NGT feeding under physical restraint and understand the effects of this on them.
Method: This is a secondary analysis of data from two previous studies on NGT feeding under physical restraint - one in mental health wards and one in children's wards - in which semi-structured interviews had been conducted with patients, staff and parents.

Phosphodiesterase-5 (PDE5) inhibitors have shown promise as anti-cancer agents in malignancies. However, their specific effects on gastric cancer (GC) and the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Our aim was to investigate this by combining evidence from population-based studies with data obtained from in vivo and in vitro experiments.
