In many developed countries, a rapidly aging population has increased healthcare demands and the proportion of older nurses in the workforce. This demographic shift requires nursing managers to have a deeper understanding of the physical demands on staff nurses, particularly older ones. In this paper, we aim to provide valuable insights for developing evidence-based strategies to improve work environments in hospital wards.

Slalom chromatography (SC) has recently been revitalized through the latest available UHPLC columns and systems, alongside advances in better understanding its separation and mass transfer mechanisms. These developments have demonstrated its potential in the analysis of cell and gene therapy drug substances, including plasmid topology analysis, DNA restriction mapping, dsRNA impurity detection in IVT mRNA, and CRISPR-Cas9 ribonucleoprotein assays. However, SC's quantitative superiority over traditional agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE) remains unproven, and no accurate and predictive model has yet been reported for any commercial SC column for a wide range of experimental conditions of temperature, flow rate, and buffer concentration.

Background: Based on available data in the literature, current evidence supporting the analgesic role of antiresorptive drugs is weak. This study compared the efficacy of zoledronic acid (ZA) and denosumab (Dmab) in reducing bone pain and first Skeletal Related Events (SREs) in real world setting.

Methods: A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted in patients with female breast cancer-related bone metastases at the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori in Milan, Italy, from January 2008 to January 2023.

Introduction: The Environmental Enrichment (EE) promotes systemic responses through social, cognitive, sensory, and physical stimuli. However, its effects on hepatic and muscle oxidative balance, as well as on serum inflammation markers, remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate whether three weeks of EE could modulate hepatic and muscular oxidative balance and the inflammatory response in female C57BL/6 mice.

Background: Complex nasal reconstructions traditionally use staged flaps, with skin grafts reserved for smaller defects.

Objective: This study evaluates single-stage full-thickness skin grafting (FTSG) for wide nasal defects postcancer resection.

Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis included 52 patients with nasal malignant lesions limited to the skin, reconstructed in a single stage immediately after cancer resections.
