The information needs of patients with atrial fibrillation: A scoping review.

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: To identify the atrial fibrillation (AF)-specific information needs of patients with AF. BACKGROUND: Patients' understanding of AF is pertinent to optimising treatment and outcomes, thus highlighting the need for effective patient education. The information required to deliver effective AF-specific patient education is less examined. METHODS: Guided by Arksey and O'Malley's framework, a scoping review was conducted for studies reporting the AF-specific information needs of patients with AF. Systematic searches were conducted across six databases (Medline, PubMed, CINAHL, Scopus, PsycINFO and ProQuest). All analyses were narrated in prose and outlined in tables. The PRISMA-ScR checklist was used to report this review. RESULTS: The systematic search yielded 3816 articles, of which 22 were included. Three major themes emerged from the thematic analysis. Each theme was supported by three subthemes. First, in 'Understanding AF', patients reported the need for 'Easy-to-understand information', information on the 'Screening and diagnosis' of AF and 'Trajectory of disease and its associated risks'. Second, in 'Treating AF', patients required information on the 'Role of anticoagulation', 'Existing or novel therapeutic options' and 'Monitoring effectiveness of treatment'. Lastly, in 'Living with AF', patients needed education in 'Symptom management', 'Secondary prevention of risks' and 'Recognition of emergency situations'. CONCLUSIONS: This review has identified the key AF-specific information needs of patients with AF. Being cognisant of the information needs of patients with AF, healthcare providers may become more effective in developing person-centred patient education interventions. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Delivering relevant patient education is an important cornerstone for atrial fibrillation care. Nurses by convention play a professional role in patient education. It may be facilitative for nurses to refer to the review findings when developing and implementing patient education interventions. Being in the midst of an ongoing pandemic, patient education strategies may require the use of telecommunication technologies.

Prevalence of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress in war- and conflict-afflicted areas: A meta-analysis.

Background: With the rise of fragility, conflict and violence (FCV), understanding the prevalence and risk factors associated with mental disorders is beneficial to direct aid to vulnerable groups. To better understand mental disorders depending on the population and the timeframe, we performed a systematic review to investigate the aggregate prevalence of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress symptoms among both civilian and military population exposed to war. Methods: We used MEDLINE (PubMed), Web of Science, PsycINFO, and Embase to identify studies published from inception or 1-Jan, 1945 (whichever earlier), to 31-May, 2022, to reporting on the prevalence of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress symptoms using structured clinical interviews and validated questionnaires as well as variables known to be associated with prevalence to perform meta-regression. We then used random-effects bivariate meta-analysis models to estimate the aggregate prevalence rate. Results: The aggregate prevalence of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress during times of conflict or war were 28.9, 30.7, and 23.5%, respectively. Our results indicate a significant difference in the levels of depression and anxiety, but not post-traumatic stress, between the civilian group and the military group respectively (depression 34.7 vs 21.1%, p < 0.001; anxiety 38.6 vs 16.2%, p < 0.001; post-traumatic stress: 25.7 vs 21.3%, p = 0.256). The aggregate prevalence of depression during the wars was 38.7% (95% CI: 30.0-48.3, I 2 = 98.1%), while the aggregate prevalence of depression post-wars was 29.1% (95% CI: 24.7-33.9, I 2 = 99.2%). The aggregate prevalence of anxiety during the wars was 43.4% (95% CI: 27.5-60.7, I 2 = 98.6%), while the aggregate prevalence of anxiety post-wars was 30.3% (95% CI: 24.5-36.9, I 2 = 99.2%). The subgroup analysis showed significant difference in prevalence of depression, and anxiety between the civilians and military group (p < 0.001). Conclusion: The aggregate prevalence of depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress in populations experiencing FCV are 28.9, 30.7, and 23.5%, respectively. There is a significant difference in prevalence of depression and anxiety between civilians and the military personnels. Our results show that there is a significant difference in the prevalence of depression and anxiety among individuals in areas affected by FCV during the wars compared to after the wars. Overall, these results highlight that mental health in times of conflict is a public health issue that cannot be ignored, and that appropriate aid made available to at risk populations can reduce the prevalence of psychiatric symptoms during time of FCV.

Physical Activity and Nutrition Interventions for Type 1 Diabetes: A Meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Current evidence is lacking on physical activity and nutrition-based interventions focusing on the management of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and health-related quality of life among children. To assess the effects of physical activity interventions and nutrition-based interventions for children with T1DM. METHODS: Data sources include the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Medline, clinicaltrials.gov, the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform, CINAHL through January 2022. Study selection includes randomized controlled trials of children aged 18 years and below with T1DM comparing either a physical activity intervention, a nutrition-based intervention, or hybrid physical activity and nutrition-based intervention with placebo or no-treatment control. Data were pooled using a random-effects model. Primary outcomes were hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), and health-related quality of life. RESULTS: Eighteen trials were included. Physical activity compared with the no-treatment group showed a lack of effect on HbA1c (mean difference = -0.58, 95% confidence interval -1.20 to 0.05; P value = .07). Nutrition-based intervention compared with no-treatment control for HbA1c level revealed a lack of effect (mean difference = -0.61, 95% confidence interval -1.48 to 0.26; P value = .17). Limitations include paucity of studies and low quality of evidence caused by the risk of bias. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the lack of significant evidence, the generally favorable results highlight the potential of such interventions in enhancing glycemic control and health-related quality of life. Additionally, promising results from a single physical activity-nutrition-based hybrid intervention in terms of glycemic control indicate the plausible effectiveness of a mixed intervention.

Elucidating a bidirectional association between rheumatoid arthritis and depression: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and depression are conditions which commonly co-exist. Recent longitudinal studies now suggest a bidirectional association between these disorders, with inconsistent results. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine this relationship. METHODS: Three electronic databases (PubMed, Embase and PsycINFO) were searched from inception to September 4, 2021 for cohort studies evaluating either the risk of depression in RA patients or the risk of RA in patients with depression, as well as the secondary outcome of all-cause mortality risk in RA patients with depression. A random effects model was used to summarize the included studies. RESULTS: Eleven cohort studies were included, comprising a total of 39,130 RA patients, 550,782 patients with depression and 7,802,230 controls. RA patients had a 47% greater risk of incident depression compared to controls, while patients with depression had a 34% greater risk of developing RA. Subgroup analysis by age was only significant in the ≥60 years old age group. RA patients with depression had an 80% increased risk of all-cause mortality compared to those without depression. LIMITATIONS: The results may have been confounded by factors such as differing methods of depression ascertainment across studies and overlap in presentation between the two conditions. CONCLUSION: There exists a bidirectional association between RA and depression especially in the elderly which increases mortality risk. This invites the need for clinicians to screen and be vigilant for the presence of these conditions.

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Fibromyalgia: An Updated Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

OBJECTIVE: Meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in fibromyalgia on the domains of pain, depression, anxiety and quality of life. METHOD: Publications were searched with the keywords "repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation" and "fibromyalgia" for randomized controlled trials that compare rTMS with sham stimulation for treating pain, depression, anxiety, and quality of life. Trials available until April 2021 were searched through PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register. The postintervention scores after 4 weeks for pain, depression, anxiety, and quality of life were extracted to compare the effects of rTMS and sham. Subgroup analysis was conducted based on the stimulation site. RESULTS: From 265 screened articles, 11 eligible randomized controlled trials involving 303 patients were included. The results show that rTMS is more effective than sham stimulation in improving pain (standardized mean difference [SMD] = -0.35; 95% confidence interval [CI] = -0.62 to -0.08; p = .01) and quality of life (SMD = -0.51; 95% CI = -0.78 to -0.23; p = .0003). It is not more effective than sham stimulation for depression, and anxiety. After sensitivity analysis, subgroup analysis revealed that primary motor cortex stimulation was more effective than sham for improving pain (SMD = -0.57; 95% CI = -0.91 to -0.23; p = <0.01). Neither dorsolateral prefrontal cortex nor primary motor cortex stimulation was more effective than sham in improving depression and anxiety. CONCLUSIONS: rTMS is more effective than sham in improving pain and quality of life, but it does not demonstrate reduction in depression or anxiety.

The impact of COVID19 on advanced practice nursing education and practice: A qualitative study.

AIM: To explore Master of Nursing students' perspectives toward the impact of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) on the advanced practice nurse preparatory education and practice. BACKGROUND: Like many nursing education programmes, the advanced practice nurse preparatory training was greatly affected and had to radically change to adapt to the disruptions caused by the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has created a strain on the healthcare system and advanced practice nurses have been expected to modify their normal practice to provide care in unprecedented ways. METHODS: The study used a descriptive qualitative design. Semi-structured video-conference interviews were conducted in an autonomous university (June-July 2020). The recruitment of participants (n = 14) concluded upon data saturation. A thematic analysis was conducted. The COnsolidated criteria for REporting Qualitative research (COREQ) guidelines were used. FINDINGS: Three main themes were identified: (1) overcome adversity through innovation, (2) acceptance of remote learning and (3) versatility of advanced practice nurses in an ongoing pandemic. Each theme was further explained by two subthemes to further elucidate the impact of COVID-19 on the advanced practice nurse preparatory training and practice. DISCUSSION: The evolution of the advanced practice nurse preparatory education catalysed by the COVID-19 pandemic brought on innovation. The ability of advanced practice nurses to adapt to evolving healthcare needs was also highlighted. CONCLUSION: Although face-to-face teaching and services are gradually returning, some innovations that arose during the pandemic may be worth keeping. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Nursing educators in higher education institutions can benefit from adopting technology to mitigate the challenges posed by the ongoing pandemic IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING POLICY: Nurse leaders should review the role of advanced practice nurses to determine how best to capitalise on their practice to meet rising healthcare needs.

Effect of Weight Loss and Continuous Positive Airway Pressure on Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Metabolic Profile Stratified by Craniofacial Phenotype: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Rationale: Craniofacial structure is believed to modulate the effect of weight loss on obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but whether this affects metabolic profile after weight loss compared with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is unknown among obese Chinese patients with OSA. Objectives: To compare the change in metabolic profile between a lifestyle modification program (LMP), stratified by craniofacial phenotype, and CPAP therapy for 6 months. Methods: We randomly assigned 194 patients with body mass index ⩾ 25 kg/m2 and moderate to severe OSA to participate in the LMP or receive CPAP therapy for 6 months in a 2:1 ratio. Assessments included computed tomography for assessing maxillomandibular volume (MMV), hsCRP (high-sensitivity C-reactive protein), and insulin sensitivity. Measurements and Main Results: Among 128 and 66 subjects in the LMP and CPAP groups, respectively, hsCRP was reduced more in the LMP group than the CPAP group (median [interquartile range], -0.7 [-1.4 to -0.0] vs. -0.3 [-0.9 to 0.4] mg/L; P = 0.012). More patients in the LMP group achieved low hsCRP (<1 mg/L) than the CPAP group (21.1% vs. 9.1%; P = 0.04). Insulin sensitivity improved only in the LMP group, with 3.1 (95% confidence interval, 1.5-6.6) times more patients with normal glucose regulation after intervention. The LMP group was stratified into LMP-small MMV (n = 64) and LMP-large MMV (n = 64) groups according to the median MMV value of 233.2 cm3. There was no significant difference in hsCRP (median [interquartile range], -0.7 [-1.3 to 0.1] vs. -0.7 [-1.5 to -0.2] mg/L; P = 0.884) and insulin sensitivity (median [interquartile range], 0.5 [-0.2 to 1.9] vs. 0.6 [0.1 to 2.0]; P = 0.4860) between the LMP-small MMV and LMP-large MMV groups. Conclusions: Weight reduction alleviated subclinical inflammation and improved insulin sensitivity more than CPAP among obese Chinese patients with moderate to severe OSA, and this effect was not influenced by craniofacial structure. Clinical trial registered with www.clinicaltrials.gov (NCT03287973).

Nature-based activities improve the well-being of older adults.

Current literature shows that interaction with urban greenery can have a wide range of positive health outcomes. Targeted nature-based programs, such as therapeutic horticulture, have been shown to result in multiple health benefits for older adults residing in temperate environments, but much less research has been carried out on populations with different phenotypes, such as older Asian adults in the tropics. The current study investigated the effects of a 24-session therapeutic horticulture program on 47 older participants in Singapore, with an experimental pretest posttest design. We found that participants maintained healthy sleep patterns and psychological health, as well as showed reduced anxiety and improved cognitive functioning (p < 0.05). In addition, they reported an increase in mean happiness score after each session. This study provides new evidence using a comprehensive set of indicators across the affective, cognitive, functional, psychosocial and physical domains, supporting current literature on the benefits of nature programs, with a novel focus on tropical environments. It provides evidence that the nature-based intervention has the potential to be translated to programs to benefit older adults in the tropics.

Characterizing Artificial Intelligence Applications in Cancer Research: A Latent Dirichlet Allocation Analysis.

BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence (AI)-based therapeutics, devices, and systems are vital innovations in cancer control; particularly, they allow for diagnosis, screening, precise estimation of survival, informing therapy selection, and scaling up treatment services in a timely manner. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to analyze the global trends, patterns, and development of interdisciplinary landscapes in AI and cancer research. METHODS: An exploratory factor analysis was conducted to identify research domains emerging from abstract contents. The Jaccard similarity index was utilized to identify the most frequently co-occurring terms. Latent Dirichlet Allocation was used for classifying papers into corresponding topics. RESULTS: From 1991 to 2018, the number of studies examining the application of AI in cancer care has grown to 3555 papers covering therapeutics, capacities, and factors associated with outcomes. Topics with the highest volume of publications include (1) machine learning, (2) comparative effectiveness evaluation of AI-assisted medical therapies, and (3) AI-based prediction. Noticeably, this classification has revealed topics examining the incremental effectiveness of AI applications, the quality of life, and functioning of patients receiving these innovations. The growing research productivity and expansion of multidisciplinary approaches are largely driven by machine learning, artificial neural networks, and AI in various clinical practices. CONCLUSIONS: The research landscapes show that the development of AI in cancer care is focused on not only improving prediction in cancer screening and AI-assisted therapeutics but also on improving other corresponding areas such as precision and personalized medicine and patient-reported outcomes.

Perception of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement of authors publishing reviews in nursing journals: a cross-sectional online survey.

OBJECTIVE: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement has been developed as a guideline for reporting systematic reviews and meta-analyses. Despite the prevalent use of the PRISMA statement in medicine and nursing, no studies have examined authors' perception of it. The purpose of this study is to explore the perception of the PRISMA statement of authors who published reviews, meta-analyses, or both in nursing journals. DESIGN: Cross-sectional descriptive study. METHODS: An online survey was conducted among authors who published reviews, meta-analyses, or both in nursing journals between 2011 and 2017. The selected authors' email addresses were extracted from the PUBMED database. A questionnaire-with a 10-point Likert scale (1-not important at all to 10-very important)-was developed to elicit their responses regarding their perception of not only the PRISMA statement as a whole, but also the individual items therein. RESULTS: Invitations were sent to 1960 valid email addresses identified, with 230 responses (response rate: 11.7%) and 181 completed responses (completion rate: 9.2%). The average perceived importance of the PRISMA statement was 8.66 (SD=1.35), while the perceived importance for the individual items ranged from 7.74 to 9.32. Six items were rated significantly higher than the average rating, whereas one item was rated significantly lower. CONCLUSION: Most respondents perceived the PRISMA statement as important. Items related to information sources, selection, search-flow presentation, summary of findings, limitations and interpretation were deemed more important while the registration was deemed less so.

Global Evolution of Research in Artificial Intelligence in Health and Medicine: A Bibliometric Study.

The increasing application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in health and medicine has attracted a great deal of research interest in recent decades. This study aims to provide a global and historical picture of research concerning AI in health and medicine. A total of 27,451 papers that were published between 1977 and 2018 (84.6% were dated 2008⁻2018) were retrieved from the Web of Science platform. The descriptive analysis examined the publication volume, and authors and countries collaboration. A global network of authors' keywords and content analysis of related scientific literature highlighted major techniques, including Robotic, Machine learning, Artificial neural network, Artificial intelligence, Natural language process, and their most frequent applications in Clinical Prediction and Treatment. The number of cancer-related publications was the highest, followed by Heart Diseases and Stroke, Vision impairment, Alzheimer's, and Depression. Moreover, the shortage in the research of AI application to some high burden diseases suggests future directions in AI research. This study offers a first and comprehensive picture of the global efforts directed towards this increasingly important and prolific field of research and suggests the development of global and national protocols and regulations on the justification and adaptation of medical AI products.

A One-Year Prospective Follow-Up Study on the Health Profile of Hikikomori Living in Hong Kong.

Background: A prospective cohort study was conducted to follow-up on 104 participants on their changes of social, psychological and physical health as exposed to the hikikomori lifestyle. Methods: Participants were interviewed at baseline, 6 months and 12 months by administering a set of questionnaires and anthropometric measurements. Results: All three health domains of hikikomori were significantly improved over the follow-up period as evidenced by: (1) increased social network scores from 2.79 ± 1.80 to 3.09 ± 1.87, (2) decreased perceived stress scores from 21.18 ± 5.87 to 20.11 ± 5.79, and (3) reduced blood pressure levels from 118/75 to 115/71 and waist-to-hip ratios. Almost half of the participants have recovered from hikikomori by returning to the workforce in society; however, the health improvements were dominant in those that remained as hikikomori and were associated with the gradual swapping of exercise practices from light to moderate level strength. Conclusions: With intended exposure to social worker engagement, physical assessments of the cohort study triggered the social workers to encourage participants to do more exercises, which in turn enhanced their awareness of health modification towards a better health. Engagement of social workers could be considered as part of the intended exposure for all participants, which suggested social work intervention was effective in helping hikikomori recovery.

Informational interventions on paternal outcomes during the perinatal period: A systematic review.

PROBLEM: The perinatal period is a stressful transition for new parents. BACKGROUND: Various forms of educational interventions are available and are found to be efficacious in improving maternal and child outcomes. Such interventions for fathers were scarce and western-centric. Fathers should be educated as they have an impact on maternal and child outcomes. AIM: This review aims to evaluate the efficacy of quantitatively-studied informational support-focused interventions for fathers using paternal outcomes only. METHODS: The search was carried out in six databases: Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, PubMed, Scopus, Embase, Psychological Information Database, and MedNar. Cochrane Collaboration's tools were used to assess the eligibility of the studies. FINDINGS: A total of 17 studies with 18 interventions were identified and included in the narrative synthesis. Most interventions were delivered to the Western population during the antenatal or postpartum period. The method of delivery for these interventions was mainly face-to-face, with inconclusive findings on various paternal psychosocial outcomes. DISCUSSION: Limited father-inclusive interventions were available. Technology-based longitudinal studies with interventions carried out across the perinatal period with longer follow-up periods were recommended for interventions providing informational support for fathers. Future studies can also examine paternal physical health and behavioural outcomes. Interventions in culturally-diverse populations should be designed and tested for their efficacies as fathers have different informational needs, especially in Asia. CONCLUSION: Informational interventions for fathers were found to be lacking and recommendations for future studies on educational interventions for fathers were discussed.

Effectiveness of the Neonatal Discharge Program for Very Low-Birth-Weight Infants on Parental Efficacy and Psychological Distress.

This pilot study aimed to (i) evaluate the effectiveness of a neonatal discharge program, (ii) identify relationships between parent and infant factors and parental efficacy and psychological distress, and (iii) identify ways to improve the neonatal discharge program. A quasiexperimental 1-group pretest/posttest design was used. Through consecutive sampling, 42 participants were recruited. Data were collected using self-report questionnaires. Self-administering instruments gathered data on parental efficacy and psychological distress as well as feedback and recommendations on the intervention. A significant increase in parental efficacy and a reduction in psychological distress were observed from pre- to postdischarge intervention. Significant relationships were found between parental efficacy and infants' gestational age, birth weight, gender, and participants' level of education, and a significant relationship was found between psychological distress and number of children from previous pregnancies. Moreover, an Internet-based program, in addition to the face-to-face teaching, was identified as a preferred option to aid in information retention. It is important to evaluate and enhance the neonatal discharge program to suit the parents of today while providing them with informational and emotional support. Future studies should explore parental coping and the long-term effects of their infant's birth and the intervention.

Enhancing first-time parents' self-efficacy: A systematic review and meta-analysis of universal parent education interventions' efficacy.

BACKGROUND: Poor adjustment during early parenthood often leads to low feelings of parental self-efficacy, which influences parents' behaviours towards their infants. The long-term consequences on infant development warrant the need for more attention on the efficacy of universal parent education interventions to empower parents and enhance their self-efficacy. OBJECTIVES: To synthesise available evidence and explore the efficacy of universal parent education interventions on the parental self-efficacy of first-time parents. DESIGN: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials. DATA SOURCES: A literature search of 10 databases was conducted to identify randomised controlled trials from each database's point of inception to November 2016. METHODS: Based on the inclusion criteria, 24,062 articles were screened for their titles and abstracts. Two hundred and eighty articles were identified for full-text screening. Risks of bias posed by the selected articles were assessed using Cochrane's Risk of Bias instrument. Meta-analyses were conducted using RevMan 5.3. The overall intervention effect was evaluated using z tests at p < 0.05, while I2 and Cochran Q tests were used to measure heterogeneity. RESULTS: Ten randomised controlled trials were selected; eight trials were combined in meta-analyses and two trials were synthesised narratively. A meta-analysis revealed that universal parent education interventions significantly enhanced parental self-efficacy (p < 0.001) among first-time parents and these effects were also maintained over time (p < 0.001). The extent of improvement in parental self-efficacy was affected by the duration of the interventions. CONCLUSION: This review provides sufficient evidence to support the use of universal interventions to enhance new parents' self-efficacy. While intervention effects were sustained at the two-month follow-up, further research using randomised controlled trials and longitudinal studies are needed to determine long-term effects. The findings serve as an impetus for hospitals and healthcare professionals to integrate universal interventions in perinatal care to guide first-time parents' transition into parenthood.

A Physical Health Profile of Youths Living with a "Hikikomori" Lifestyle.

A cross-sectional study was designed to understand the impacts of "hikikomori" lifestyle on physical health. A total of 104 eligible hikikomori cases were recruited from the social services network of Hong Kong with a mean age of 19.02 ± 3.62 (ranged 13-31) year-old, and had completed the set of questionnaires and a series of anthropometric and physical health measurements. Despite SF36 score of 84.0 indicated good physical functioning in general, participants were lived sedentarily with high incidence of hypertension at 15.4% and prehypertension at 31.7%. Occurrence of hypertension and prehypertension in cases living as hikikomori >6 months were 3 times and 1.5 times higher than those newly onset cases, respectively. The blood pressure levels were correlated with age and all obesity index parameters measured including waist circumference and body mass index. Results also observed a shift of body weight from underweight to overweight and obesity along the hikikomori duration. Half of the hypertensive cases involved the elevation of systolic blood pressure, which suggested higher odds of cardiovascular complications. In conclusion, the hikikomori lifestyle could be a risk behavior that may harm the younger generation physically by promoting obesity and hypertension and probably other chronic illnesses.
