Abstract

Background: Osteoporosis, a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass, poses a significant disease burden for older women. Often assessed using Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) scale, the association between osteoporosis and HRQoL is scarce, with the majority of quality of life studies focused on osteoporotic women post fracture.   Purpose: The study’s primary objectives were to examine if differences exist in HRQoL among women greater than 50 years of age who have and/or do not have osteoporosis and to gain insight into the relationship of HRQoL and osteoporosis.Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional design involving data extraction on women aged 50 years or older from 2014 Medical Expenditure Panel Survey (MEPS) was used (N = 4,661).  HRQoL was measured by the generic Short-Form-12 Version 2 Physical (PCS) and Mental Health (MCS) component summary scores. The differences between osteoporosis and PCS and MCS were examined using t-tests and multivariable ordinary least squares regression.Results: Overall, 4.1% women aged 50 and older had osteoporosis.  In both bivariate and multivariable analyses, no statistically significant differences were observed in HRQoL measures between women with and/or without osteoporosis. Conclusion: No group differences in HRQoL by osteoporosis status suggest the need for additional research using other research methodologies to flush out nuances in QOL changes. Clinician actions focused on insured and uninsured women with osteoporosis must include early and ongoing QOL assessment, with a focus on physical changes overtime

Abstract

Background: The kind of attitude expressed by the nurses may have significant effect on the recovery process of the patient and on their decision to avail treatment. It is anticipated that by exploring the attitudes of the nurses towards AUD patients and understanding the factors which influences these attitudes, more effective interventions can be developed to provide help and support to this group of patient and also to the nurses in being effective and appropriate in responding to the needs of this group of patient.Purpose: The study was conducted to explore the prevailing attitudes of nurses towards AUD patients, and to further explore the factors influencing these attitudes.Methods: A total of fifteen nurses from Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hosiptal were recruited based on convenience and purposive sampling techniques. Qualitative approach was employed by means of conducting face to face in-depth interviews using open ended questions. The qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis method.Results: The findings from the study suggest that possessing adequate knowledge on alcohol and addiction, being regularly engaged with AUD patients or having few years of experience working with AUD patients were some of the factors which resulted in more positive attitudes among the nurses. On the contrary, insufficient skills and knowledge related to alcohol addiction and exhibition of aggressive behaviour by the patients could cause negative feelings and ultimately lead to negative attitudes.Conclusion: Therefore, it is of paramount importance that a curriculum on alcohol addiction is introduced in diploma and degree nursing courses offered in Bhutan.

Abstract

Background: Impairment of nutritional fulfillment is one of the problems that is often encountered in premature infants. Purpose: This study aims to determine the effect of the type of nutrition on the weight increase of premature babies.Methods: A retrospective study was conducted through a medical record review in a top national referral hospital, Indonesia. Total of 75 preterm infants divided into groups of 15 infants by nutrition type (100% BM, 75% BM, 50% BM, 25% BM, and 0% BM). Weight gain was assessed for 12 days through the patients’ medical records. Weighing observation was devided into four times: birth weight in day-1, day-4, day-8, and day-12. Subjects were recruited using consecutive sampling with the following criteria: preterm infants with chronological age > 7 days and weight > 1000 grams. Meanwhile, the exclusion criteria were preterm infants treated in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), preterm infants with medical diagnosis of hydrocephalus, sepsis, and congenital anomalies, conjoined twin babies. The general linear model-repeated measure was used to quantify the contrast of increases in infants’ body weight among groups for days 1-4; 4-8; and 8-12. Results: There were no significant differences between the five types of nutrients in terms of increase in the infants’ body weight in day 1-4 (p > 0,68); day 4-8 (p > 0,65); day 8-12 (p > 0,12). Conclusion: Although it not likely to accelerate the infant’s weight, mother’s own milk is still the first recommendation due to its immunity components, nutritional elements, and safety.

Abstract

Background: Cancers are leading cause of death in developed nations and the second leading cause of death in developing nations. One of the most frequently diagnosed cancers among men is Prostate cancer (PCa)Objective: This research study aimed at exploring the patient?s and family?s perceptions towards diagnosis of prostate cancer in Tharaka Nithi County, Kenya.Methods: The study population comprised of families and PCa patients attending Chogoria mission hospital, Magutuni sub-county hospital, Chuka county hospital and Tharaka sub-county hospital which were selected purposefully, from which a sample of 70 patients and 65  family members was obtained. Purposive sampling method was used to sample patients and families. Data were collected using interview schedules and focus group discussions and summarized using descriptive statistics. Statistical analysis for association between variables was done using chi-square tests.  Results: The study revealed that; men in the age group 60-70 were most prone to the development of prostate cancer. A high percentage of patients and families perceived that prostate cancer was caused by genetic factors and should be treated by medical personnel. Over 50% of the patients and families had no idea of the symptoms of prostate cancer neither had they heard of it before the patient was diagnosed. The study also revealed that 50% of  the patients suffered hypertension, 80% did not believe the diagnosis at first and over 50% perceived the diagnosis as a death sentence. PCa patients showed the highest level of acceptance and lung cancer patients the poorest acceptance of illness. Over 90% of the patients and families observed general health improvement after medication. Over 78% of the patients and family?s had embraced insurance as a way of meeting the medical expenses.Conclusion: This study demonstrated that patients and families perceived the diagnosis of prostate cancer as a death sentence. They also had low level of knowledge about PCa. A strong correlation was demonstrated between family history and increased risk of PCa. However, it was demonstrated that family history of PCa did not increase levels of knowledge on the causes of PCa.

Abstract

Background: Traditional face-to-face instruction swiftly transitioned into online learning during the global COVID-19 outbreak. Students’ experiences and academic performance in this new learning platform need evaluation.Purpose: The purpose of this research was to determine the undergraduate nursing students’ stress, satisfaction, and academic performance during online learning.Methods: This research was considered a cross-sectional and descriptive-correlational study. The research participants were the second-year undergraduate nursing students from one nursing school in the Philippines. The data were collected using a web-based survey questionnaire and then analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman’s rho correlation.Results: The results revealed that the undergraduate nursing students considered having online learning during the COVID-19 outbreak to be stressful (44.4%) and very stressful (47.2%). Moreover, the undergraduate nursing students had low satisfaction (37%) and moderate satisfaction (46.3%) having the online learning during the COVID-19 outbreak. The undergraduate nursing students’ academic performance were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and resulted in poor (37%) to fair (50%) academic performance and were considerably (43.6%) and greatly (30.6%) affected by the pandemic. Online learning stress had a significant and inverse correlation with online learning satisfaction (p=.000) and academic performance (p=.012).Conclusion: Stress negatively impacts the undergraduate nursing students’ satisfaction and academic performance. This research suggests that certain measures should be performed to reduce stress and improve the online teaching–learning processes during the COVID-19 outbreak.
