    Abstract Background: Organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) may increase service quality. In contrast, counterproductive work behavior (CWB) may undermine patient safety. Efforts to increase OCB and reduce CWB rely on a good understanding of their antecedents, yet there is a lack of research in health care to inform such endeavors.
    Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the role of leadership, specifically leader-member exchange (LMX), in reducing CWB and increasing OCB in health care teams.
    Methodology/approach: Team survey data were collected from 75 teams in U.S. health services organizations. Polynomial regression and response surface analysis was used to investigate our hypotheses.
    Results: For OCB, the response surface along the line of incongruence (a3) was positive and significant, and for CWB, a3 was negative and significant.
    Conclusion: The results of polynomial regression and response surface analysis indicate that OCB increases when LMX quality is high and that LMX differentiation is comparatively lower. In contrast, CWB increases when LMX differentiation is high, whereas LMX quality is lower.
    Practice implications: These findings provide useful suggestions to promote valuable extra-role behaviors in health care teams. Health care team leaders should aim to develop strong exchange relationships with all members if they wish to increase citizenship behavior and decrease counterproductive behavior. Building positive exchange relationships with only a few team members is likely to undermine citizenship behavior and increase counterproductive behavior.

    Abstract This study aimed to investigate nursing strategies for patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) undergoing postoperative intravesical instillation. We recruited 100 NMIBC patients from January 2017 to January 2022. Participants were randomly assigned to either the research group or the control group (n = 50 each) using random number tables. The control group received routine nursing interventions, while the research group received integrated nursing interventions. We compared and analyzed various parameters, including patient satisfaction, treatment compliance, General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) scores, core quality of life scale scores, bladder carcinoma specificity scale scores, disease coping scores, and the incidence of complications among patients undergoing instillation treatment. The research group exhibited significantly higher satisfaction scores and treatment compliance (P < .05). Additionally, GSES, Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) scores were significantly improved in the research group (P < .05). Scores on each dimension of the EORTC QLQ-C30 were higher (P < .05). The research group also had lower scores for post-nursing urinary system diseases, treatment problems, future worries, and intestinal symptoms in the QLQ-BLS24 score (P < .05). Furthermore, the research group experienced fewer postoperative complications (P < .05). Nursing interventions significantly enhance the outcomes of NMIBC patients undergoing intravesical instillation treatment. These interventions effectively improve treatment compliance, alleviate negative emotions, modify coping strategies, reduce the incidence of complications, and enhance overall nursing satisfaction.

    Abstract Background: Although prophylactic anticoagulation therapy is suggested to be adopted in severe COVID-19 patients, its effects on the long-term cardiovascular (CV) outcomes, namely the risk of major adverse CV events(MACEs) in high-risk CV patients amid the omicron wave of the pandemic, remain unknown.
    Methods: We conducted this prospective cohort study of consecutive adults hospitalized COVID-19 between 19 April and 12 June 2022, COVID-19 patients with at least two CV risk factors or pre-existing CV diseases were enrolled. A propensity score matching(PSM) method was used to evaluated the effects of prophylactic anticoagulation therapy in hospital on long-term MACEs, including CV death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, non-fatal stroke, hospitalization due to unstable angina pectoris, coronary revascularization and arterial or venous thrombosis.
    Results: Two cohorts (with or without anticoagulants during hospitalization) of each 230 patients with balanced baseline characteristics were formed using PSM. During the 15-month follow-up period, 13 patients with anticoagulants and 29 patients without anticoagulants developed MACEs. Overall, the anticoagulation group had a significantly lower risk of MACEs than the control group (hazard ratio [HR] 0.431; 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.224-0.830, P = 0.010). Regarding specific constituents of MACEs, the differences were mainly reflected in arterial or venous thrombosis. The significantly lower HRs of overall MACEs were significantly observed in subgroup of age > 75 years, women, higher D dimer level, unvaccinated and non-nirmatrelvir-ritonavir prescribed patients.
    Conclusions: Prophylactic anticoagulation therapy during hospitalization was effective in reducing long-term MACEs among COVID-19 patients with CV risk factors or pre-existing CV diseases amid the omicron wave of the pandemic.

    Abstract Purpose: Even though nirmatrelvir-ritonavir can improve the short-term morbidity and mortality in COVID-19 patients, the effects of this treatment on long-term major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs), especially myocardial injury, remains undetermined.
    Methods: This prospective cohort study identified hospitalized adult patients with COVID-19 between April 19, 2022, and June 9, 2022, amid the omicron wave of the pandemic. Matched nirmatrelvir-ritonavir-treated and non-treated cohorts were formed using the propensity score matching method. The primary outcome of this study was the incidence of MACEs (cardiovascular death, myocardial infarction, stroke, new-onset heart failure or heart failure hospitalization or ventricular arrhythmia) from 30 days to 16 months after the diagnosis of COVID-19.
    Results: Two 949-patient cohorts with balanced baseline characteristics were formed by propensity score matching. Patients with nirmatrelvir-ritonavir, compared to those untreated, had a lower level of troponin I peak as well as the incidence of troponin I elevation. During the follow-up period, 59 patients in the nirmatrelvir-ritonavir group and 86 patients in the control group developed MACEs (P = 0.020). Regarding specific constituents of MACEs, the differences are mainly reflected in new-onset heart failure or heart failure hospitalization. COVID-19 clinical severity and troponin I peak were the independent predictors, while nirmatrelvir-ritonavir was the independent protective factor for the occurrence of MACEs in this population.
    Conclusion: Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir was effective in reducing myocardial injury as well as long-term adverse cardiovascular outcomes among hospitalized patients with COVID-19 amid the omicron wave of the pandemic.

    Abstract We present the description of a new genus and new species of Trigonidiidae, Qiongqi crinalis gen. et sp. nov., found in amber deposits at Noije Bum, near Tanai in the Hukawng Valley of northern Myanmar. Its lateralized eyes, short clypeus, exposed mandible, and extremely dense setae entirely covering the body, provides us with new knowledge on the morphology of Trigonidiidae. Additionally, a key to species of fossil Trigonidiidae in amber was provided.

    Abstract This paper describes a new species of the genus Burmadactylus Heads, 2009 (Tridactylidae: Dentridactylinae) from Burmese amber, namely: Burmadactylus tenuicerci sp. nov. This new species is similar to Burmadactylus grimaldi Heads, 2009, but differs from latter by mesotibia basally inflated and almost as long as mesofemur; the second segment of cercus distinctly slender; paraproctal lobe covered with sparse and slender setae, one of the setae near the apex distinct thick and long.
