Association between workplace violence and occupational stress among emergency department nurses: a cross-sectional study by Lixi Long, Lixi Long, Lixi Long, Nan Xie, Nan Xie, Nan Xie, Xiaoli Chen, Xiaoli Chen, Xiaoli Chen, Hao Zhang, Hao Zhang, Hao Zhang, Luying Zhong, Luying Zhong, Luying Zhong, Dongmei Diao, Dongmei Diao, Dongmei Diao, Ling Zhu, Ling Zhu, Ling Zhu, Yue Zhou, Yue Zhou, Yue Zhou

“…BackgroundEmergency department (ED) nurses suffer from workplace violence (WPV) and occupational stress (OS) due to the working environment. However, a relatively small number of studies on the relationship between WPV and OS among ED nurses have been conducted and its impact on nurse health or nursing quality.MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted in 30 hospitals in China from December 26, 2023, to January 18, 2024 through questionnaire survey and stratified cluster sampling.ResultsA total of 1,540 ED nurses were surveyed, 1,309 of whom had experienced WPV. …”

Thermomechanical stress analyses of nanowarming-assisted recovery from cryopreservation by vitrification in human heart and rat heart models. by Purva Joshi, Yoed Rabin

“…This investigation demonstrates the need to tailor the thermal protocol of heart cryopreservation on a case-by-case basis, since the location, orientation, magnitude, and instant at which the maximum mechanical stress is found cannot be predicted a priori. While thermomechanical stress poses a significant risk to organ integrity, careful design of the thermal protocol can be instrumental in reducing the likelihood of structural damage, while taking full advantage of the benefits of nanowarming.…”

The untapped potential for healthcare to support recovery for patients with stress-related exhaustion disorder – creating an experience of generalised safety by Susanne Ellbin, Agneta Lindegård, Fredrik Bååthe

“…This created an experience of unsafety, and that could inadvertently maintain the stress response and negatively influence recovery for patients with stress‑related disorders.Conclusion It is paramount to convey an experience of predictability, despite the fact that patients undergo an unpredictable process related to their ED illness. …”

Exploring the impact of a brief positive experience on dogs' performance and stress resilience during a learning task. by Julia Miller, Camila Cavalli, Amin Azadian, Alexandra Protopopova

“…These dogs also spent a significantly higher proportion of time in proximity to their owners, which could be interpreted as reassurance-seeking behaviour. Contrary to our predictions, exposure to a brief positive experience did not impact learning and, surprisingly, seemed to have made dogs more susceptible to stress during the Disruption phase. …”

Supplementing sialic acid analogs overcomes radiotherapy resistance in triple-negative breast cancer by exacerbating ER stress by Muwen Yang, Dongni Shi, Jianbo Lyu, Yibing Pan, Yiyang Lyv, Xiangfu Chen, Ying Ouyang, Yajie Liu, Yue Li, Libing Song

“…In this study, upregulation of Galbeta1-4 GlcNAc alpha 2,3 sialyltransferase (ST3GAL4) was observed in association with sialylation in TNBC patients with radiotherapy resistance and predicted poorer survival. ST3GAL4 catalyzed α2,3-sialylation of HSP90B1, then facilitates its retrograde trafficking from the Golgi to ER mediated by SURF4 cargo receptor. …”
