Authors: Wang Megan
Published: December 2020

Basketball has existed for almost 130 years, becoming one of the most famous sports worldwide by affecting millions of lives and having national and global tournaments. With the general improvement of people's concern and love for sports competition, sports analytics’ role will become more prominent. Hence, this paper combines the relevant knowledge of statistics and typical basketball competition cases from NBA, expounding the application of statistics in sports competition. The paper first examines the importance of normal distribution (also called Gaussian distribution) in statistics through its probability density function and the function's graph. The function has two parameters: the mean for the maximum and standard deviation for the distance away from the mean[1]. By compiling datasets of past teams and individuals for their basketball performances and making simple calculations of their standard deviation and mean, the paper constructs normal distribution graphs using the R programming language. Finally, the paper examines the Real Plus-Minus value and its importance in basketball.

Cultural Difference in Chinese and English Euphemisms
Authors: Xiang Hongping , Zhao Yanfei
Published: December 2020

The term “euphemism” comes from Greek and the literal meaning of the word is “to speak with good words or in a pleasant manner”. Euphemism is not only a linguistic phenomenon, but also a cultural phenomenon. It originates from “word fetishism” in the early age of human civilization. Now, it is commonly used by people in every aspect of social life and functions to avoid taboos, be polite and disguise etc. To a great extent, it serves as the “lubricating oil” in language communication. Without proper application of euphemism, people may usually feel confused or embarrassed in communication. The study of euphemism has long been the focus of researchers home and abroad. Both English and Chinese have a lot of euphemisms.Language is the carrier and reflector of culture, euphemisms in different cultures may have different characteristics of the social culture. We know more about the traditional cultures of both languages. The findings in the comparison of cultural aspects can provide us knowledge helpful for the better understanding and use of euphemisms.

La propiedad de uno mismo: alcances y límites en la filosofía política de G.A. Cohen
Authors: Palomino Flores Karl
Published: December 2020

Este texto propone una defensa de la crítica que Cohen realiza al concepto de propiedad de uno mismo. Para ello, presentaremos la crítica de Cohen a dicho concepto en la obra de Nozick. Luego, se expondrá la defensa elaborada por Mack de la propiedad de uno mismo en la obra de Nozick, por medio de la formulación de lo que denomina “cláusula de propiedad de uno mismo”. Por último, se sostendrá que dicha cláusula no permite superar las críticas de Cohen, debido a que su cumplimiento es compatible con un régimen de propiedad colectiva.

Authors: Peralta Nadia Soledad , Roselli Néstor
Published: December 2020

El trabajo tiene como objetivo analizar los efectos de la regulación interactiva de situaciones diádicas sobre las capacidades argumentativas de los sujetos en dos tipos de tareas: ordenamiento de causas de fenómenos sociales y toma de posición frente a situaciones dilemáticas. Se realizó un estudio cuasiexperimental, se comparó el pre-test y el pos-test de los sujetos luego de la interacción, constituyéndose dos grupos; díadas con asistencia de la interacción por parte del investigador (participación, evaluación y contra-argumentación) y díadas sin asistencia. Los resultados muestran que la asistencia produce efectos significativos en la competencia argumentativa individual y el tipo de tarea matiza el efecto señalado, produciendo diferenciaciones. Se destaca la importancia de la regulación de la interacción sobre la argumentación.
Momentos significativos asociados al cambio psíquico
Authors: Mantilla Lagos Carla , Traverso Koroleff Pierina
Published: December 2020

Esta investigación se propuso los siguientes objetivos: 1) identificar, tematizar y describir los momentos significativos de un proceso psicoanalítico percibidos por los pacientes como importantes para el cambio psíquico, así como analizar su naturaleza y las relaciones entre estos, y los diferentes aspectos del proceso psicoanalítico; 2) evaluar si la perspectiva de los usuarios sobre los momentos significativos del proceso psicoterapéutico asociados al cambio contribuye a ampliar la comprensión de la acción terapéutica de la psicoterapia psicoanalítica. El proyecto es de enfoque cualitativo, pues se tomó como información un fenómeno subjetivo (Mortl & Gelo, 2015), tal como lo es la percepción y la valoración del usuario sobre aspectos relacionados al proceso psicoanalítico que se relacionan con el cambio psíquico, y la narrativa del proceso vivido. Los resultados muestran 4 ejes temáticos con 18 subtemas en total que describen los momentos percibidos como importantes para el cambio psíquico por parte de los usuarios.
Língua e discurso em Flusser e Foucault: um diálogo à espreita?
Authors: Beccari Marcos
Published: December 2020

Este ensaio, de caráter heurístico, propõe uma aproximação conceitual entre Flusser e Foucault, particularmente entre o primeiro livro de Flusser e a chamada fase arqueológica de Foucault. Após uma breve contextualização do panorama estruturalista ao qual ambos buscavam responder, são apresentadas quatro “cenas”, ou recortes temáticos, que preparam um diálogo que nunca existiu. O diálogo é traçado em torno da noção da palavra enquanto matéria irredutível a partir da qual o pensamento e a realidade podem se dar. Por fim, defende-se que, enquanto Foucault visava desnaturalizar as palavras, Flusser tratava de retraduzi-las, como um meio de amplificar a realidade.
Uma reflexão sobre moda e imaginário: mocinha ou vilã?
Authors: Kauling Graziela Brunhari
Published: December 2020

À luz da sociologia compreensiva, a moda já não é simplesmente a moda, as roupas, os artefatos, os utensílios, os adereços, mas um sinal de que a trajetória humana não se resume à sobrevivência, à luta pela vida, mas transcende o cotidiano e nos remete a um conjunto social que cria novas possibilidades, tanto no plano simbólico quanto na esfera dos significados. Portanto, esse estudo visa refletir as potencialidades da moda com base nas noções da teoria do imaginário pelos fenômenos fast fashion e slow fashion como efervescências sociais entre as eras moderna e pós-moderna. O questionamento que permeia essa reflexão está pautado na polaridade existente nas questões sociais referentes ao fenômeno complexo que é a moda. A moda pode ser nociva, mas pode ser também afetual, depende do que ela está a materializar. Essa materialidade possibilita refletir instantaneamente os anseios efervescentes e latentes do âmbito social.
Cinema e os imaginários contemporâneos: conferência de encerramento do I Seminário Imaginário e Memória
Authors: De Almeida Rogério
Published: December 2020

A conferência de encerramento traz ao debate a suposta separação entre real e imaginário para mostrar que ela é impossível. Para expressar essa impossibilidade, parte da discussão cinematográfica entre documentário e ficção, mostrando que os gêneros e as abordagens se confundem desde a origem. Desse modo, o cinema, como arte ficcional, contribui para a compreensão do real, justamente por colocar em circulação imaginários que propõem interpretações possíveis para o que é vivido na contemporaneidade.

Work Trajectories of High-Resource Multi-Child Mothers
Authors: Dorofeeva Zlata
Published: December 2020

The period of maternity leave for multi-child mothers is generally longer than for mothers with a smaller number of children, and securing a job after taking a break, in conjunction with an increased volume of family responsibilities, is more difficult. When high-resource multi-child mothers return to the labor market, they expect not only a “motherhood penalty”, but also with a high probability a “penalty” for being overeducated. Their solution for the conflict between “motherhood” and “work” most often involves either a complete refusal to be employed, or finding more flexible options in the field of non-typical work, which are often less demanding in terms of qualification level and consequently result in lower income. Based on a series of in-depth interviews conducted by the author in Moscow and Voronezh with high-resource multi-child parents, including a list of questions about the working trajectories of women and also a number of questions about life practices, it is shown that the reverse side of the full or partial departure from the labor market of multi-child mothers is intensive parenting and setting a high standard for children’s education, including a scrupulous selection of educational institutions and a large amount of additional classes. Thus, the complete or partial loss of high-resource women as workers for the labor market is accompanied by a forthcoming significant non-economic effect, since society receives active translators of human capital to a new generation.
PHARMACOEPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HYPERGLYCEMIA CORRECTION AMONG PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS WITH LIVER LESIONS WITH DIABETES LOWERING THERAPY AND ESSENTIAL PHOSPHOLIPID DRUGS
Authors: Maksimenko Valery B. , Gromakov Luka A. , Sinyutina Svetlana E.
Published: December 2020

The aim of the study is to study the possibility of improving the effectiveness of hyperglycemia treatment among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by correcting the structural-functional state of the liver using essential phospholipid preparations. Materials and methods. The cohort retrospective study examined the medical histories of 1050 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, among whom 205 had liver complications. Diagnosis of steatohepatitis among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was verified based on increased activity of hepatic transaminases and serum bilirubin concentration. Metabolic syndrome was verified according to 3 criteria: abdominal obesity, dyslipidemia and arterial hypertension. Fatty hepatosis was diagnosed based on an ultrasound study. Three times during the course of treatment of the patients the glycemic profile was studied. Patients were divided into study groups: type 2 diabetes mellitus without liver diseases (control); type 2 diabetes mellitus with liver disease (chronic persistent hepatitis, chronic steatohepatitis) received standard diabetes reduction therapy; type 2 diabetes mellitus with the same liver pathology, which was additionally prescribed essential phospholipid drugs (essentiale forte intravenously 10 ml/day and per os at 500 mg; essliver - per os 500 mg (1 cap) 3 times/day). Statistical methods : calculating the value of the average, the error of the average, the reliability of the differences according to the Student criterion, the percentage of differences between groups. Pharmacoepidemiological methods evaluated the hazard ratio and the odds ratio of the therapeutic effect of essential phospholipids. Results . Patients with liver lesions make up 19.5 % among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Among them, patients with fatty hepatosis account for 3.3 %; with steatohepatitis - 3 %; with metabolic syndrome in combination with fatty hepatosis and steatohepatitis - 14.3 %. More than a 4-fold increase in relative chance and a 2-fold increase in relative risk of hypoglycemic effect in type 2 diabetes mellitus and hepatic steatosis is likely due to the fat-lysis and membranotropic effects of essential phospholipids on the liver. 1.7-fold increase in relative chance and 1.5-fold increase in relative risk of hypoglycemic effect in type 2 diabetes mellitus and steatohepatitis appears to be due to choleretic effect of essential phospholipids.

ALBERT CAMUS’NUN VEBA ROMANINI PANDEMİ (COVİD-19) SÜRECİNDE YENİDEN OKUMAK
Authors: DURAKOĞLU Abdullah , COŞKUN Hamit
Published: December 2020

Fransız filozof Albert Camus’nun 1947’de yayımlanan ‘Veba” adlı romanında, salgınla boğuşan bir şehrin halkının yaşadığı psikososyal süreçler anlatılmaktadır. Cezayir’in liman şehri Oran’da önce fareler topluca ölmeye başlar. İlk başta bunun kötü bir şaka olduğu düşünülür ve pek önemsenmez. Sonra, veba insanlara bulaşsa da neredeyse hiç kimse bunun bir salgın olduğunu kabullenemez. Günlük ölüm sayısının artmasıyla birlikte Dr. Rieux önderliğinde, bir toplantı yapılır ve bu toplantıda salgının resmen kabul edilmesiyle birlikte sosyal dayanışma zinciri kurulur. Böylece salgınla mücadele dönemine girilir, ancak alınan ilk önlemler yetersiz kaldığından her geçen gün ölü sayısı artmaya devam etmektedir. Bunun üzerine önlemler daha da sıklaştırılır ve karantina uygulaması hayata geçirilir. Karantina döneminden sonra, insanlar, en sevdiklerini göremedikleri gibi öldüklerinde de cenaze törenine dahi katılamazlar. Çaresizce salgının bitmesini bekleyen insanlar, ölüm, ayrılık gibi aynı duyguları yaşadıklarından adeta aynı kaderi paylaşırlar. Artık romanda salgın ortak bir yazgı olarak nitelendirilmektedir. Bu süreçlerin benzeri günümüzde pandemi sürecinde de yaşanmaktadır. Bu çalışmada romandaki endemi süreciyle günümüzdeki pandemi sürecinde yaşanan psikososyal süreçler birbirleriyle karşılaştırılmış ve çalışmanın sonunda romanda yaşanan süreçlerin birçoğunun günümüzde de yaşandığı tespit edilmiştir. Bu bağlamda değerlendirildiğinde zamanın hatta olanakların ve koşulların farklı olmasına rağmen günümüzdeki insanların da, daha önce yaşamış insanlar gibi benzer süreçleri yaşadıkları ve bu nedenle daha önceki çağlarda yaşamış insanlar ile benzer veya aynı hislere sahip oldukları tespit edilmiştir.

Abstract

Fertilization is one of important aspect in improving the productivity and quality of dragon fruit. This study aims to determine the effect of organic fertilizer on the growth and production of dragon fruit. The research was conducted from January to December 2014 at farmer orchard in Solok District, West Sumatra. The study was prepared based on a Factorial RCBD with two factors and three replicates, each treatment consisting of three pillars. First factor  was organic fertilizer dose with three levels (5, 10, and 15 kg/pillar).  Second factor was the interval application of organic fertilizer consisting of four levels (1, 2, 3, and 4 months). The results showed that the provision of organic fertilizer can significantly increase the growth (number of branches), amount of production and quality of fruit (grade/fruit size,TSS). Provision of organic fertilizers can also increase the nutrient content of soil and plants. Application of organic fertilizer with a dose of 15 kg and 1 month interval gives the highest growth (number of branches), the highest number of fruit production and quality (grade/fruit size) are significantly. Implication of this research is to increase the growth and production of dragon fruit that needs to be done organic fertilizer application.
Evaluating a multidimensional strategy to improve the professional self-care of occupational therapists working with people with life limiting illness.
Authors: Apostol Courtney , Cranwell Kathryn , Hitch Danielle
Published: December 2020

Background: The term ‘’life limiting conditions’ refers to premature death following decline from chronic conditions, which is a common circumstance in which occupational therapists work with people at the end of life. The challenges for clinicians of working with these patients have long been recognised, and may have a significant impact on their professional self-care. This study aimed to evaluate a multidimensional workplace strategy to improve the professional self-care of occupational therapists working with people living with a life limiting condition.Methods: A pre and post mixed methods survey approach were utilised, with baseline data collection prior to the implementation of a multidimensional workplace strategy. The strategy included professional resilience education, targeted supervision prompts, changes to departmental culture and the promotion of self-care services across multiple organisational levels. Follow up data collection was undertaken after the strategy had been in place for two years. Quantitative data were analysed descriptively, while qualitative data were subjected to thematic analysis. Results: 103 occupational therapists responded (n=55 pre, n=48 post) across multiple service settings. Complex emotional responses and lived experiences were identified by participants working with patients with life limiting conditions, which were not influenced by the workplace strategy. Working with these patients was acknowledged to challenge the traditional focus of occupational therapy on rehabilitation and recovery. Participants were confident about their ability to access self-care support, and supervision emerged as a key medium. While the strategy increased the proportion of occupational therapists undertaking targeted training, around half identified ongoing unmet need around professional self-care with this patient group. Demographic factors (e.g. practice setting, years of experience) also had a significant impact on the experience and needs of participants. Conclusions: The multidimensional workplace strategy resulted in some improvements in professional self-care for occupational therapists, particularly around their use of supervision and awareness of available support resources. However, it did not impact upon their lived experience of working with people with life limiting conditions, and there remain significant gaps in our knowledge of support strategies for self-care of occupational therapist working with this patient group.

Published: December 2020

Purpose: The lack of enough medical evidence about COVID-19 regarding optimal prevention, diagnosis, and treatment contributes negatively to the rapid increase in the number of cases globally. A chest computerized tomography (CT) scan has been introduced as the most sensitive diagnostic method. Therefore, this research aimed to examine and evaluate the chest CT scan as a screening measure of COVID-19 in trauma patients.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Rajaee Hospital in Shiraz from February to May 2020. All patients underwent unenhanced CT with a 16-slice CT scanner. The CT-scans were evaluated in a blinded manner and main CT scan features were described and classified into four groups according to RSNA recommendation. Subsequently, the first two RSNA categories with the highest probability of COVID pneumonia (i.e. typical and indeterminate) were merged into the “positive CT scan group” and those with radiologic features with the least probability of COVID pneumonia into “negative CT scan group”.Results: Chest CT scan had a sensitivity (68%), specificity (56%), positive predictive value (34.8%), negative predictive value (83.7%), and accuracy (59.3%) in detecting COVID-19 among trauma patients. Also, for the diagnosis of COVID-19 by CT scan in asymptomatic individuals a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 66.7% and a negative predictive value of 100% was obtained.Conclusion: Findings of the study indicated that the CT scan's sensitivity and specificity is less effective in diagnosing trauma patients with COVID-19 in comparison to non-traumatic people.

Authors: Cuthbertson Leah , James Phillip , Habibi Maximillian , Thwaites Ryan , Paras Allan , Chiu Christopher , Openshaw Peter , Cookson William , Moffatt Miriam
Published: December 2020

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common cause of acute lower respiratory tract infection in infants. It is being increasingly recognised as a cause of morbidity and mortality in the elderly. Microbial dysbiosis in the respiratory tract has been hypothesized to predispose individuals to severe RSV infection. This study explores changes in the bacterial community over the course of a controlled human challenge study.
From 37 healthy adult patients exposed to a challenge inoculum of RSV, throat swabs were collected daily for 10 days during quarantine and on days 14 and 28 post quarantine. Swabs were processed for bacterial and viral quantification and 16S rRNA gene sequencing.
Over the course of the study three clinical outcomes were observed; clinical cold (n = 17), asymptomatic infection (n = 6) or no infection (n = 14). These three outcome groups had no significant differences in the bacterial load, diversity or community composition at baseline. Over the twenty-eight days following RSV inoculation no significant changes in the bacterial community were observed between the outcome groups.
This study of healthy adults revealed no major changes in the bacterial community of the respiratory tracts following RSV inoculation, suggesting that this microbial community is resilient to viral perturbations.

Published: December 2020

Background
Respiratory mucociliary clearance (MCC) is a key defense mechanism that functions to entrap and transport inhaled pollutants, particulates, and pathogens away from the lungs. Previous work has identified a number of anesthetics to have cilia depressive effects in vitro.
Methods
Wild-type C57BL/6J mice received intra-tracheal 99mTc-Sulfur colloid, and were imaged using a dual-modality SPECT/CT system at 0 and 6 hours to measure baseline MCC (n = 8). Mice were challenged for one hour with 1.5% isoflurane, ketamine (100 mg/kg)/xylazine (20 mg/kg), ketamine (0.5 mg/kg)/dexmedetomidine (50 mg/kg), fentanyl (0.2 mg/kg)/1.5% isoflurane, propofol (120 mg/Kg), or fentanyl/midazolam/dexmedetomidine (0.025 mg/kg/2.5 mg/kg/0.25 mg/kg ) prior to MCC assessment.
Results
The baseline MCC ranged from 5.2 to 7.2%, and was significantly reduced to 3.7% (p = 0.04) and 3.0% (p = 0.01) by ketamine/xylazine and ketamine/dexmedetomidine challenge respectively. Importantly, combinations of drugs containing fentanyl, and propofol in isolation did not significantly depress MCC. The CBF, cilia length, percent ciliation, and flow velocity did not correlate with the post-study baseline measurements.
Conclusions
Our results indicate that anesthetics containing ketamine (ketamine/xylazine and ketamine/dexmedetomidine) significantly depress MCC, while combinations containing fentanyl (fentanyl/isoflurane, fentanyl/midazolam/dexmedetomidine) and propofol alone did not. Our method for assessing MCC is reproducible and has utility for studying the effects of other drug combinations.

Purpose: To investigate the peripapillary vascular metrics in early normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and early primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) eyes using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A).Methods: One or both eyes of each subjects were imaged for a 3x3mm peripapillary region by swept-source OCT-A (DRI-OCT Triton, Topcon, Japan) and assessed by an automated MATLAB program. OCT-A metrics including circumpapillary vessel density (cpVD) and fractal dimension (cpFD) were compared. Their association with visual field (VF) parameters and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness were determined.Results: Sixty-eight eyes of 51 PACG, 68 eyes of 48 NTG, and 68 eyes of 49 control subjects were cross-sectionally analyzed. NTG eyes had significantly lower global cpVD (52.369±0.781%) compared with PACG eyes (55.389±0.721%, P=0.004) that had comparable disease severity and average RNFL thickness. Multivariable analysis reviewed that, for PACG and NTG eyes, decreased cpVD ([PACG] β=-4.242; CI:-8.120, -0.363 vs [NTG] β=-5.531; CI:-9.472, -1.590) and cpFD ([PACG] β=-8.894;CI:-11.925, -5.864 vs [NTG] β=-12.064; CI:-17.095, -6.932) were associated with decreased RNFL thickness (all P≤0.032); with a stronger association between decrease cpFD and decreased RNFL thickness in NTG eyes (Fisher’s Z-test, P=0.045). Decreased cpVD was associated with decrease mean deviation (MD) in NTG eyes (β=-0.707; CI:-1.090, -0.324; P≤0.001) and not associated with the visual field parameters in PACG eyes. Conclusions: Early NTG had lower global cpVD compared with early PACG, despite similar disease severity and average RNFL thickness. Précis:Optical coherence tomography angiography observed a lower peripapillary microvascular perfusion in early NTG eyes compared with early PACG eyes, despite similar disease severity and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness.

Background: The study aimed to reveal how the fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) affected the value of mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) and the accuracy of Fick-equation-based cardiac output (Fick-CO). Methods: Forty-two adult patients who underwent elective cardiac surgery were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups: FIO2 <0.7 or >0.85. Under stable general anesthesia, thermodilution-derived cardiac output (TD-CO), SvO2, PvO2, hemoglobin, SaO2, PaO2, and blood pH levels were recorded before surgical incision. Results: Significant differences in FIO2 values were observed between the two groups (0.56 ±0.08 in the <70% group and 0.92 ±0.03 in the >0.85 group; p <0.0001). The increasing FIO2 values lead to increases in SvO2, PvO2, and PaO2, with little effects on cardiac output and hemoglobin levels. When comparing to TD-CO, the calculated Fick-CO in both groups had moderate Pearson correlations and similar linear regression results. Although the FIO2 <0.7 group presented a less mean bias and a smaller limits of agreement, neither group met the percentage error criteria of <30% in Bland-Altman analysis.Conclusions: Increased FIO2 may influence the interpretation of SvO2 and the exacerbation of Fick-CO estimation, which could affect clinical management.

Role and Preparedness of Physiotherapists in Prevention of Chronic Diseases, Using Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women as an Example 
Authors: Witkoś Joanna , Hartman-Petrycka Magdalena
Published: December 2020

Background: Ageing human population will generate a significant number of patients with chronic diseases, and this will lead to a significant increase in demand for health services and to a deteriorated economic situation in many countries. Stress urinary incontinence is the chronic diseases and one of the most important global health problems. Representatives of medical professions provide their patients with knowledge about the appropriate prevention and treatment of diseases. The aim of the study was to evaluate knowledge among graduates of physiotherapy about stress urinary incontinence in women. Methods: The study included 401 participants, students in their final year of physiotherapy. Respondents provided answers to open questions about their knowledge about stress incontinence in women.Results: The complete definition of stress urinary incontinence in women was given by 64.4% of physiotherapy students at the Medical University and 56.3% of physiotherapy students at the Physical Education University. The students of the Medical University, in comparison with the students of the Physical Education University, were more aware of risk factors (86.4% vs 69.4%), prevention methods (85.6% vs 68.7%), and conservative (92.4% vs 77.8%) and surgical treatment (28.0% vs 6.7%) of stress urinary incontinence in women (p<0.001). Conclusions: For the future students to better fulfil their role in providing care to female patients with SUI, a greater emphasis should be put on their education in that area. Research has shown that the disciplinary focus of universities educating students of physiotherapy plays a significant role in gaining knowledge about SUI.

Published: December 2020

Background: This study aimed to explore Korean older adults’ experience with discharge transition after hip fracture surgery. Methods: This was a descriptive qualitative study. Face-to-face interviews following hip fracture surgery were conducted with 12 participants. Data were collected one to two days before discharge and again four weeks after discharge following hip fracture surgery, and were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.Results: Four main themes were identified: (1) Challenge of discharge transition: unprepared discharge, transfer into other care settings, and eagerness for recovery; (2) Physical and psychological distress against recovery: frail physical state and psychological difficulties; (3) Dependent compliance: absolute trust in healthcare providers, indispensable support from the family, and passive participation in care; and (4) Walking for things they took for granted: hope of walking and poor walking ability.Conclusions: After the hip fracture surgery, older adults hoped to be able to walk to perform the simple daily chores they earlier took for granted. Considering the physical and psychological frailty of older adults, systematic nursing interventions, including collaboration and coordination with other healthcare professional and settings, are necessary during discharge transition after hip fracture surgery. Invitation for care participation by older adults as well as family involvement should be considered at discharge transitional care in South Korea.

Published: December 2020

Background: Patient absconding from hospital is one of the permanent issues the hospitals face, which poses many risks and challenges to the patient, hospital, and society. The present study aimed to identify the reasons for patient absconding behavior for public hospitals in southeastern Iran. Methods: The present study is a qualitative study which was conducted at three public hospitals in southeastern Iran using purposive sampling through semi-structured interviews with 63 informants involved in patient treatment process. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi content analysis (CCA) method. Results: Three main themes of economic, social factors, and factors related to the hospital covering 15 subthemes were identified to explain the reasons for patients absconding behavior. Conclusion: There are many reasons for reducing patients absconding from hospitals, and one of the main reasons is the patients’ economic and social problems. The absconding behavior can lead to harm and problems for patients, and some emotional and occupational consequences for the employees and nurses. Paying attention to this issue and considering some courses of action to prevent patient absconding might lead to a considerable promotion of public trust and eliminate many problems for hospitals.
