Influencing factors of nurses' disaster preparedness: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: The growing frequency and severity of natural disasters threaten global health and socioeconomic stability. As frontline responders, nurses play a critical role in disaster preparedness and response. Taking into account the lack of research on the various influence factors associated with nurses' disaster preparedness, This research aimed to systematically summarize the influencing factors and quantitative data, and conduct a meta-analysis.

Gradient polaritonic surface with space-variant switchable light-matter interactions in 2D moiré superlattices.

Polaritons in two-dimensional (2D) materials provide unique opportunities for controlling light at nanoscales. Tailoring these polaritons via gradient polaritonic surfaces with space-variant response can enable versatile light-matter interaction platforms with advanced functionalities. However, experimental progress has been hampered by the optical losses and poor light confinement of conventionally used artificial nanostructures.

Cu(II)-catalyzed synthesis of -sulfonated quinolin-2(1)-one-3-carboxamides.

Herein, N-N bond cleavage of sulfonylhydrazides was observed and applied in the synthesis of -sulfonated quinolin-2-(1)-one-3-carboxamides. More than 30 examples were forged in 52%-97% yields. Further transformation delivered a 3,4-dihydro-quinolin-2(1)-one derivative.

Allelopathic and phytotoxic activity of essential oil of Elaeagnus angustifolia flowers and its major constituents on and .

This study investigated the allelopathic and phytotoxic effects of flower essential oil (EO) and its major constituents. Forty-one compounds were identified by GC-MS, accounting for 96.93% of the total oil, with the main compounds being ethyl cinnamate and methyl cinnamate.

Association between the atherogenic index of plasma and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a retrospective cross-sectional study.

Background: The atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) is a simple and reliable marker of insulin resistance and is closely associated with various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). However, the relationships between AIP and left ventricular (LV) geometric indicators have not been adequately assessed. This study was carried out to investigate the association between AIP and LV geometric abnormalities in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients.

Experience and training needs of nurses in military hospital on emergency rescue at high altitude: a qualitative meta-synthesis.

Background: Nurses play an important role in the treatment of war wounds on the plateau, and they face multiple challenges and a variety of needs in their caregiving process. This study aimed to systematically integrate and evaluate qualitative research data to understand the altitude emergency rescue experience and training needs of nurses in military hospitals and provide them with targeted assistance.

Methods: We critically assessed the study using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Assessment Checklist for Qualitative Research.

Novel strategy to raise the content of aglycone isoflavones in soymilk and gel: Effect of germination on the physicochemical properties.

Germination holds the key to nutritional equilibrium in plant grains. In this study, the effect of soybean germination on the processing of soymilk (SM) and glucono-δ-lactone (GDL) induced soymilk gel (SG) was investigated. Germination promoted soybean sprout (SS) growth by activating the energy metabolism system.

Cross-linked modifications of starches from colored highland barley and their characterizations, digestibility, and lipolysis inhibitory abilities in vitro.

To promote the stability and functionality of native starch from colored highland barley (CHBS), the cross-linked modifications with sodium trimetaphosphate (STMP)/sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) and citric acid were conducted to prepare CHB resistant starches (CHRSs), whose physicochemical characteristics, digestibility, and lipolysis inhibitory potential were also assessed. Results showed that the resistant starch amounts in CHBS were significantly increased after cross-linking and differed slightly among CHRSs. Citric acid modification of CHBS resulted in significantly higher amylose amounts, solubilities, swelling powers, and water-binding capacities than those under STMP/STPP modification within the cultivars (p < 0.

Endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy in the management of chronic fecalith appendicitis in a patient with ulcerative colitis: The first human case report.

To assess the effectiveness of endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) as a new technique and method for chronic fecalith appendicitis complicated by active ulcerative colitis. A 46-year-old male patient was admitted with right iliac fossa pain, tenderness, and raised inflammatory markers. A computed tomography (CT) scan of his abdomen confirmed a dilated appendix, which is considered chronic fecalith appendicitis combined with active ulcerative colitis.

Multiband Superconductivity with Sign-Preserving Order Parameter in Kagome Superconductor CsV_{3}Sb_{5}.

The superconductivity of a kagome superconductor CsV_{3}Sb_{5} is studied by scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy at ultralow temperature with high resolution. Two kinds of superconducting gaps with multiple sets of coherent peaks and residual zero-energy density of states (DOS) are observed on both half-Cs and Sb surfaces, implying multiband superconductivity. In addition, in-gap states can be induced by magnetic impurities but not by nonmagnetic impurities, suggesting a sign-preserving or s-wave superconducting order parameter.

[Bacteria diversity of soil of Populus Euphratica forest in the hinterland of Taklimakan desert].

Objective: The aim of study was to investigate bacterial diversity of Populus Euphratica forest in the hinterland of Taklimakan desert. All the isolateds were be used as inoculants for silage and biofertilizer.

Methods: Strains were isolated by culture-dependent method.

[Diversity of halophilic Actinomycetes from mud volcano in Xinjiang].

Objective: To know halophilic actinomycetes and their enzyme-producing ability from mud volcano in Usu County, Xinjiang, China.

Methods: Soil samples in mud volcano were isolated with five isolation media containing 5% and 10% NaCl (w/v) with dilution-plate method. The activities of lipase, galactosidase, amylase, esterase and cellulase from isolated strains were qualitatively detected by using five selective media.
