To further enhance the bandwidth of an integrated chaotic semiconductor laser, a structure of an integrated mutual coupling laser is proposed. The laser integrates two distributed feedback lasers and two semiconductor optical amplifiers in the middle of the lasers. The dynamic state of the integrated laser undergoes complex changes with the variation of the bias currents of the distributed feedback (DFB) lasers and semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). We find that the bias currents have an influence on the enhancement of chaotic signal bandwidth. The proposed structure can generate over 30 GHz ultra-wide chaotic laser when the DFB and SOA regions are under proper bias current conditions.

Nurses are often perceived as dominant figures in patient interactions due to their specialised knowledge and institutional authority, particularly in hospital settings. This article challenges that perspective by examining nurse-patient dynamics in primary care through the lens of reciprocity-a relational concept centred on mutual exchange and interdependence. Drawing on an interpretive case study conducted in Shenzhen, China, involving 18 community nurses and 20 patients with chronic conditions, the study identifies two key dimensions of reciprocity: expertise-trust and social networking.

Objective Enhancing the practical competencies of novice public health nurses is urgently needed, and the identification of organizational factors that management-level public health nurses can improve is crucial for effective human resource development within organizations. This study aimed to explore the challenges and organizational factors perceived by management-level public health nurses when developing 10 types of practical competencies for their novice peers.Methods A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted via postal mail or the Internet in November 2023, targeting five senior management-level public health nurses in each of the 210 municipalities across seven prefectures in the Tokai-Hokuriku region of Japan.

Objective: This study aims to develop a robust, multi-task deep learning framework that integrates vessel segmentation and radiomic analysis for the automated classification of four retinal conditions- diabetic retinopathy (DR), hypertensive retinopathy (HR), papilledema, and normal fundus-using fundus images.
Materials: AND.
Methods: A total of 2,165 patients from eight medical centers were enrolled.

Unlabelled: This parallel-group randomized controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of drawing and mutual storytelling techniques in reducing anxiety and improving the emotional well-being of children aged 7-12 years in a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). This study was conducted in a city hospital between August 2024 and January 2025, involving 70 children. Participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention group (n = 35) or a control group (n = 35).

The Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System for primary myelofibrosis (DIPSS) has been reported to predict transplant outcomes in myelofibrosis (MF) patients. Recently, the pre-transplant use of JAK inhibitors has become common in clinical practice, but it is unclear whether DIPSS is also useful for predicting transplant outcomes for these patients. In this study, we compared the prognostic impact of DIPSS between MF patients with and without pre-transplant Ruxolitinib therapy.
