Is psychological capital the same in Singapore? : an exploration of psychological capital and its relationship with engagement in an Asian context by Aw, Cherie Qiu Ying, Seah, Charlene Kai Qi, Lee, Alex Yi

“…The results indicated that the higher-order PsyCap core factor predicted engagement. Further analyses revealed that defensive pessimism is a better predictor of engagement than optimism because defensive pessimism, efficacy, hope and resilience were better able to predict engagement than the composite PsyCap. …”

Modeling of Mechanical Stress Exerted by Cholesterol Crystallization on Atherosclerotic Plaques by Luo, Yuemei, Cui, Dongyao, Yu, Xiaojun, Chen, Si, Liu, Xinyu, Tang, Hongying, Wang, Xianghong, Liu, Linbo

“…The results demonstrate that (1) the peak circumference stress is proportionally dependent on the cholesterol crystal growth; (2) cholesterol crystals at the cap shoulder impose the highest peak circumference stress; and (3) spatial distributions of cholesterol crystals have a significant impact on the peak circumference stress: evenly distributed cholesterol crystals exert less peak circumferential stress on the cap than concentrated crystals.…”

Addition of macrolide antibiotics for hospital treatment of community-acquired pneumonia by Wei, J, Walker, S, Eyre, D

“…</p> <br> <p><strong>Conclusions:</strong> At a population level, the addition of macrolides was not associated with improved clinical outcomes for CAP patients. The potential advantages of combining macrolides with a β-lactam antibiotic in CAP treatment should be balanced against the risks of adverse effects and antimicrobial resistance.…”
