However, patients with breast pain only are often referred onto urgent breast cancer diagnostic pathways, leading to unnecessary anxiety and overutilisation of secondary health care services.

A can't oxygenate, can't ventilate, can't intubate situation may result in a life-threatening situation thus, a movement as simple as turning the patient's head can be worth every penny.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;During Drug Induced Sleep Endoscopy (DISE), a diagnostic procedure used in case of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), we noticed that turning the head while the patient is under anesthesia can open the airway if it is obstructed by the base of the tongue. The head-turn is a routine part of the procedure as it might be an indicator of the effect of positional therapy for OSAS.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The ‘instructions for authors’ of the specific journal we had in mind states: ‘ “Freestanding” Letters to the Editor also may discuss matters of general interest to anesthesiologists, without specific linkage to recently published articles,’ and, “Letters to the Editor should be brief (250 to 750 words).”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Therefore, we wrote a 250 words letter to the editor with the advice for colleagues to try, based on our experience during DISE, a simple head-turn for non-traumatic cases of can't oxygenate, can't ventilate, can't intubate situation [&lt;span&gt;2&lt;/span&gt;].&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Even the editor found our “idea interesting and perhaps useful to many anesthesiologists.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, since ‘evidence based’ became the magic words in medicine, the focus seems to have shifted from clear and logical thinking to an adopted creed for more and more research. However, in many cases we do not need more research to improve healthcare or to learn easy tips and tricks. To quote Hill concerning tests of significance: “&lt;i&gt;yet there are innumerable situations in which they are totally unnecessary – because the difference is grotesquely obvious, because it is negligible, or because, whether it be formally significant or not, it is too small to be of any practical importance&lt;/i&gt; [&lt;span&gt;1&lt;/span&gt;].”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chalmers, Sackett and Silagy wrote: “&lt;i&gt;when care has such striking effects, (…) carefully controlled research is seldom necessary to identify whether the prescriptions and proscriptions of doctors and other health professio","PeriodicalId":15997,"journal":{"name":"Journal of evaluation in clinical practice","volume":"31 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jep.70155","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144244913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to avoid chronic diseases. Manually grading retinal images is time-consuming, prone to errors, and lacks patient-friendliness. Various Deep Learning (DL) algorithms are employed to detect chronic diseases from retinal fundus images. Also, these methods have some disadvantages, such as overfitting, computational cost, and so on.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Objective</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The proposed research aims to develop Optimized DL based system for detecting chronic diseases in retinal images and solving existing issues.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Methodology</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Initially, the retinal images are pre-processed to clean and organize the data. Normalization and HSI Colour Conversion are the techniques used for pre-processing. Inception-V3, ResNet-152 and a Convolutional Vision Transformer (Conv-ViT) are used to perform feature extraction. The classifier is an Optimized Hybrid Attention-based Capsule Network.

The sample consisted of 580 nurses who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study.

Regression analysis showed that internal entrepreneurship had a significant effect on patient-centered care competence (R² = 0.789, <i>p</i> &lt; 0.001). Among the sub-dimensions of internal entrepreneurship, risk-taking and proactivity were found to have the strongest impact on patient-centered care competence. In addition, socio-demographic characteristics such as age, marital status, education level, and years of experience caused significant differences in internal entrepreneurship and patient-centered care competence levels.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusion</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>The study concluded that increasing nurses' internal entrepreneurship characteristics positively contributes to enhancing their competence in providing patient-centered care.
