Abstract

Background: Youth violence is the fourth leading cause of death among individuals aged 10-29, representing a significant global public health concern. In the UK, gun and knife crimes among youth are particularly troubling. This scoping review aims to identify the contributing factors of gun and knife violence among young people in the UK and their impact on mental health. Method: We searched literature using Medline, PubMed Central, Sunderland Library, Google Scholar, CINAHL, and approved government websites. Boolean operators were used with specific search terms, including only full-text, English-language, and original research publications. The PRISMA flowchart was used to document the selection process. Result: Out of 648 identified articles, 11 met the inclusion criteria. Three primary themes emerged: socio-economic factors, gang involvement, and mental health. Conclusion: Gun and knife violence among young people in the UK poses a significant public health burden. Effective interventions require addressing socio-economic disparities, preventing gang involvement, and providing accessible mental health support.

Abstract

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused adjustments in health services and hospital procedures, particularly in the provision of nursing care to patients. The shift of health care during the COVID-19 pandemic has had both beneficial and bad consequences, including the dynamics, problems, and impediments that nurses encounter.   Methods: This descriptive phenomenological study investigated nurses' readiness to offer nursing care during the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia. Semi-structured interviews were performed with 13 nurse participants in a teaching hospital in the province of Aceh, Indonesia. The Collaizzi method, consisting of seven steps, was used to examine qualitative data.   Results: The study identified four major themes: 1) modifying health services during a pandemic; 2) coping mechanisms for nurses dealing with a pandemic; 3) barriers to providing nursing care during a pandemic; and 4) making wish come true during a pandemic.   Conclusion: Nurses' experience enhancing health care during the COVID-19 pandemic requires more improvement, integration, and holistic thinking. Nonetheless, they must treat patients even when their situations are not favourable. The proposed research should address the significance of optimizing care during a pandemic, such as nurse safety and security, government measures to limit COVID-19 in nursing services, and nurses' effective pandemic methods in Indonesia

Abstract

Background: The duration of untreated psychosis (DUP) is a crucial factor influencing the prognosis of schizophrenia, affecting long-term outcomes and treatment efficacy. Despite its importance, there is a paucity of research on the determinants of DUP in Indonesian patients with schizophrenia, highlighting the need for a focused investigation within this specific context. This study aims to identify the determinants of DUP among patients with schizophrenia in Indonesia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving patients with schizophrenia admitted to a referral psychiatric hospital in Indonesia. Data were collected using guided interviews and observations through structured questionnaires. Additionally, socio-demographic information was gathered. Results: A multiple linear regression analysis revealed that previous consultations with traditional healers (β = 21, 95% CI = 11.4 - 30.6, p = 0.001) and religious healers (β = 16.7, 95% CI = 8.2 - 25.2, p = 0.0001) were independently predicting the longer DUP. Conclusions:Treatment-seeking behavior is significantly influencing the DUP in patients with schizophrenia. Efforts should focus on improving health literacy to encourage earlier mental health treatment-seeking.

Abstract

Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a significant health burden associated with a decrease in quality of life. Patients with the disease often have a deficiency of Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin important for respiratory health. A previous study suggested an association between low vitamin D levels and poor lung function, as well as increased exacerbation, and more severe COPD symptom. Therefore, this study aimed to assess serum vitamin D levels in stable COPD patients and explore association with lung function, symptom severity, and frequency of exacerbation. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted from May to July 2023 at Lung Polyclinic of Dr. Zainoel Abidin Regional General Hospital (RSUDZA) Banda Aceh. A total of 30 subjects selected based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria were included. Results: The results showed that the mean serum vitamin D level was 26.25 ng/mL, with 56.7% of subjects showing vitamin D insufficiency. Statistical analysis showed p-values of 0.58, 0.637, 0.12, and 0.98 for lung function, exacerbation, COPD Assessment Test (CAT), and Modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnoea scale respectively, indicating no significant association between vitamin D levels and these outcomes. Potential confounding factors include unassessed variables such as medication use, educational background, and psychological status. Conclusion: This study found no significant association between serum vitamin D levels and lung function, symptom severity, or frequency of exacerbation in stable COPD patients. Further studies with a larger sample size and extended follow-up are needed to confirm these results and explore additional influencing factors.
