Abstract

Mental health disorders are a significant issue, yet there is currently no consistent data regarding the factors that may contribute to their occurrence. The aim of this study was to identify the factors that may influence the occurrence of mental health disorders in the undergraduate student population. This meta-analysis, registered in PROSPERO, was conducted as of September 5, 2024. The systematic searches were conducted on three databases (Scopus, Embase, and PubMed). Data on factors related to the occurrence of mental health disorders in undergraduate students were collected to calculate pooled point estimates using the Mantel-Haenszel test. Out of 6,837 articles, 16 articles were included in the analysis. Our findings revealed that female students had a higher chance of experiencing mental health disorders compared to male students (OR: 1.43; 95%CI: 1.14–1.80; p-Egger of 0.1041; p-Heterogeneity of <0.0001; p=0.0020). The chance of having mental health disorders was also higher among single students compared to those in relationships (OR: 1.20; 95%CI: 1.02–1.43; p-Egger of 0.0535; p-Heterogeneity of 0.1130; p=0.0180). This study did not find any associations between age group, family income, smoking, living arrangements, years of study, or regularity of physical activity with the occurrence of mental health disorders. These findings could serve as a basis for improving policies aimed at reducing the rates of mental health disorders in undergraduate students.

Abstract

Heart failure is a life-threatening condition with increasing prevalence and mortality rate worldwide, often resulting in frequent hospitalizations and reduced quality of life. Effective self-care behaviors are essential for minimizing adverse health effects among patients with heart failure. The aim of this study was to identify and synthesize factors influencing self-care among individuals with heart failure. Articles published in English between 2017 and 2022 were retrieved from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect using predefined Boolean search terms, including 'self-care', 'factors', 'influence', 'heart failure patients', and 'cross-sectional study'. Of 740 records screened, 21 studies met the inclusion criteria. The identified factors were thematically categorized into sociodemographic, psychological, cognitive, and social domains. Sociodemographic factors (age, education, marital status, and New York Heart Association (NYHA) class), health literacy, self-efficacy, depression, and family support were consistently identified as critical determinants. Self-efficacy emerged as a central factor, influencing the relationship between depression and knowledge of self-care performance. Family support proved to be a significant facilitator of effective self-care. These findings suggest that multiple interrelated factors contribute to suboptimal self-care among patients with heart failure. Addressing these determinants may inform the development of effective, culturally sensitive self-care interventions and guide nursing practice and health policy aimed at improving heart failure management.
