Stroke, Ahead of Print. Background:Bone or cartilage anomalies with affection of brain supplying arteries are a potential structural cause for ischemic stroke. In the following, we termed this entity bony stroke. Due to rarity of their description, there is no standardized workup and therapy for bony strokes.Methods:Retrospectively, we extracted diagnostic and therapeutic workup of all patients considered to have had a bony stroke between January 2017 to March 2022 at our comprehensive care center.Results:In total, 6 patients classified as a bony stroke were identified among 4200 acute patients with ischemic stroke treated during the study period. Each patient had recurrent ischemic strokes in the dependent vascular territory before diagnosis. Diagnosis was achieved by a combination of imaging devices, including sonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. In addition to conventional static imaging, the application of dynamic imaging modalities with the patients’ head in rotation or reclination confirmed a vessel affection following head movements in 3 patients (50%). Treatment options were interdisciplinary assessed and included the following: conservative treatment (n=1), endovascular stenting (n=2) or occlusion (n=2), surgical removal of bone/ cartilage (n=2), and surgical bypass treatment (n=1). In follow-up (mean 11.7 months), no patient experienced further ischemia.Conclusions:As a differential diagnosis, bony strokes may be considered in patients with recurrent ischemic stroke of unknown cause in one dependent vascular territory. Interdisciplinary evaluation and treatment may eliminate risk of stroke recurrence.

Objectives
This study aims to assess the volunteer motivation and stress load of patient volunteers in the Fangcang shelter hospitals (FSHs), examine their associations, and explore the potential influence factors of volunteer motivation.

Design
Cross-sectional online survey conducted from 21 April to 20 May 2022.

Setting
Questionnaires were collected from patient volunteers selected by random cluster sampling in the FSHs in Shanghai, China.

Participants
197 participants who met the inclusion criteria as patients who were asymptomatic or presenting with mild symptoms in the FSHs and who volunteered to assist with routine work under quarantined settings.

Outcome measures
We investigated sociodemographic information, stress load and volunteer motivation through an online survey using the Volunteer Function Inventory and the Stress Overload Scale. Comparisons between groups were conducted by applying t-tests or analysis of variance. The correlation between volunteer motivation and stress was analysed by Pearson correlation. Influencing factors of volunteer motivation were determined by multivariable linear regression models. A value of p

Objective
This scoping review aims to identify the COVID-19-related stressors and the corresponding coping strategies among emergency physicians during and following the pandemic.

Introduction
In the midst of an unprecedented COVID-19 crisis, healthcare professionals confront a diverse set of difficulties. Emergency physicians are under immense pressure. They must provide frontline care and make quick decisions in a high-pressure environment. This can lead to a variety of physical and psychological stressors, including extended working hours, increased workload, personal risk of infection and the emotional toll of caring for infected patients. It is critical that they be informed of the numerous stressors they face, as well as the various coping methods accessible to them, in order to deal with these pressures.

Inclusion criteria
This paper will summarise the findings of primary or secondary investigations on emergency physicians’ stressors and coping strategies during and following the COVID-19 epidemic. All journals and grey literature in English and Mandarin published after January 2020 are eligible.

Methods
The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) method will be used to conduct the scoping review. A thorough literature search will be performed on OVID Medline, Scopus and Web of Science to find eligible studies, using the keywords related to emergency physicians, stress and coping strategies. Two reviewers will independently revise all of the full-text articles, extract data and evaluate the study quality. A narrative overview of the findings from included studies will be given.

Ethics and dissemination
This review will involve secondary analysis of published literature, and therefore ethics approval is not required. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses checklist will be used to guide translation of findings. Results will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and presented in conferences via abstract and presentation.

This cohort study evaluates whether wrist-wearable devices can provide useful biomarkers for recovery after traumatic stress exposure.

Although small patient subsets benefit from current targeted strategies or immunotherapy, gemcitabine remains the first-line drug for pancreatic cancer (PC) treatment. However, gemcitabine resistance is widespread and compromises long-term survival. Here, we identified ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2T (UBE2T) as a potential therapeutic target to combat gemcitabine resistance in PC.
