Published: January 2023

Loss of physiological nocturnal blood pressure (BP) decline is an independent predictor of cardiovascular risk and mortality. The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of body composition and fat distribution on 24-hour BP pattern and nocturnal dipping of mean arterial pressure (MAP) in patients with obesity. The study comprised 436 patients, 18 to 65 years old (306 women), with BMI ≥30 kg/m2. Body composition was assessed with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and blood pressure was assessed by 24-hour BP monitoring. The prevalence of hypertension was 64.5% in patients with BMI <40 kg/m2 and increased to 78.7% in individuals with BMI ≥50 kg/m2 (p = 0.034). The whole-body DXA scans showed that the hypertensive patients were characterized by a greater lean body mass (LBM) and a higher abdominal-fat-to-total-fat-mass ratio (AbdF/FM), while the normotensive participants had greater fat mass, higher body fat percentage and more peripheral fat. Loss of physiological nocturnal MAP decline was diagnosed in 50.2% of the patients. The percentage of non-dippers increased significantly: from 38.2% in patients with BMI <40 kg/m2 to 50.3% in those with BMI 40.0–44.9 kg/m2, 59.0% in patients with BMI 45.0–49.9 kg/m2, 71.4% in those with BMI 50.0–54.9 kg/m2 and 83.3% in patients with BMI ≥55 kg/m2 (p = 0.032, p = 0.003, p<0.001, and p = 0.002 vs. BMI <40 kg/m2, respectively). The multivariable regression analysis showed that patients at the highest quartiles of body weight, BMI, LBM and AbdF/FM had significantly reduced nocturnal MAP dipping compared with patients at the lowest quartiles, respectively.

Published: January 2023

The aim of the study is to explore students’ entrepreneurial behaviour in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), represented by behavioural intention, and the factors that influence their entrepreneurial decisions. The study used 248 survey questionnaires distributed to university students from various universities and regions in the UAE. The collected data were analysed using elementary descriptive analysis, and partial least squares technique. The findings showed that personal attitude, subjective norm, facilitating conditions and perceived behavioural control have a significant influence on the Emirati students’ entrepreneurial intention. In addition, government support was found to have a significant role in moderating the relationships between the above factors and entrepreneurial intention, by either strengthening or dampening these relationships. The study significantly contributes to the behavioural theories, especially the theory of planned behaviour, by incorporating additional dimensions and applying it in a different field and setting that have not been explored earlier. Likewise, the findings provide important practical insights and recommendations to promote and improve entrepreneurial activities among higher education institutions’ students in the UAE.

Kutatásunk során a narratív pszichológiai tartalomelemzés
segítségével nemi szerepekről szóló személyes történetek elemzésével
szeretnénk pontosabb képet kapni a társadalom férfiasságról, nőiességről
alkotott képéről. Kutatásunk a nemi esszecializmus hatásait vizsgálja
férfiasság narratív konstrukciójának megalkotásakor. Vizsgálatunk során
összevetettük, hogy az ágencia, a negatív érzelmek és az értékelés
tekintetében megfigyelhetőek-e nemi különbségek. Eredményeink szerint azok
a férfiak, akiknél az érzelemkimutatás a férfi státusz elveszítéséhez
kapcsolódik, több aktív igét és negatív érzelmi töltetű szót használtak. A
férfiak több negatív érzelmet kapcsolnak a férfi státusz elvesztéséhez,
mint a nők a női státusz elvesztéséhez, azaz a nők esetében kevésbé jelenik
meg a nemi státusszal kapcsolatos szorongás.
„Ebből nem lesz forradalom” – a #MeToo-médiabíráskodás alakulása Magyarországon egy esettanulmány tükrében
Authors: Virágh Enikő Anna
Published: January 2023

A #MeToo magyarországi leágazása sokak szerint nem váltotta be a hozzá fűzött kezdeti reményeket, ami szorosan összefügg a középpontjában álló, szimbolikussá váló Sárosdi Lilla és Marton László nevével fémjelzett ügy alakulásával. Jelen tanulmány célja a médiabíráskodás és a nyilvános leleplezés elméleti keretét és a kvalitatív diszkurzuselemzés módszerét felhasználva választ keresni arra a kérdésre, hogy mi az oka annak, hogy a Marton László-ügy médiabíráskodása az idő előrehaladásával lendületét vesztette, és Marton László elkövető helyett egyre inkább áldozatként konstruálódott meg a médiában? Az eredmények szerint az ügy ellentmondásossá válásában és a médiabíráskodás kritikájának felerősödésében komoly szerepet játszottak az ügy szereplői közötti távolságok és az ügyre jellemző különböző aránytalanságok, valamint az ügy során kialakuló áldozati versengés. Sárosdi és Marton viszonylatában ezért nem tudott egyértelműen kialakulni a "megkérdőjelezhetetlen áldozat – valódi elkövető" konstrukciója, ami kulcsfontosságú lett volna a Marton feletti médiabíráskodás sikeréhez, de – tekintettel arra, hogy a Sárosdi-Marton történet vált a magyar #MeToo szimbolikus történetévé – a magyar #MeToo mozgalom sikerességének percepciójához is.

Cytogenetic Analysis in Patients with Azoospermia
Authors: Asja Begovac  , Mirela Mačkić-Đurović  , Aganović-Mušinović
Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND

Azoospermia (the absence of sperm in the semen) significantly amounts to infertility in men (15 % of infertile men). Since genetics plays a huge part in its origin, genetic testing needs to be considered as an important part of early diagnostics when evaluating azoospermic patients. The aim of our study was to determine the genetic cause of azoospermia, to analyze karyograms and the possible presence of Y chromosome microdeletion.

METHODS

The study included 20 men diagnosed with azoospermia. The oldest male was 50 and the youngest was 24 years old. They were sent for analysis of karyotype and microdeletions of the Y chromosome (AZF region) to the Center for Genetics of the Faculty of Medicine.

RESULTS

The results of the cytogenetic analysis showed 3/20 (15 %) of abnormal karyotypes. Three patients were identified with two different translocations that were not previously reported. Two brothers were identified with the same translocation between the short arm of chromosome 8 and the long arm of chromosome 17 [46, XY, t(8;17)(p23;q11)], after both of them had failed in-vitro fertilization (IVF). The third patient with chromosomal translocation between the short arm of chromosome 4 and the long arm of chromosome 11 [46, XY, t(4;11)(p16;q13)]. Molecular genetic analysis showed no Y chromosome microdeletion in any of these three cases. However, from the rest of the group, only one patient had Y chromosome microdeletion in the AZFc region (one of the most common causes of genetic azoospermia). His karyotype was normal.

CONCLUSIONS

Our study confirms that cytogenetic and molecular genetic analysis plays an important role in identifying the cause of azoospermia. Genetic counseling should be provided when these abnormalities are identified before making any future medical decisions.

The aim of this study is to obtain knowledge about which cultivable bacterial species are present in indoor air in homes, and whether the concentration and species composition of airborne bacteria is associated with different factors. Measurements have been performed for one whole year inside different rooms in 5 homes and once in 52 homes. Within homes, a room-to-room variation for concentrations of airborne bacteria was found, but an overlap in bacterial species was found across rooms. Eleven species were found very commonly and included:
Acinetobacter lowffii,
Bacillus megaterium, B. pumilus,
Kocuria carniphila,
K. palustris,
K. rhizophila, Micrococcus flavus,
M. luteus, Moraxella osloensis, and
Paracoccus yeei. The concentrations of gram-negative bacteria in general and the species
P. yeei were significantly associated with the season with highest concentrations in spring. The concentrations of
P. yeei,
K. rhizophila, and
B. pumilus were associated positively with relative humidity, and concentrations of
K. rhizophila were associated negatively with temperature and air change rate.
Micrococcus flavus concentrations were associated negatively with air change rate. Overall, this study identified species which are commonly present in indoor air in homes, and that the concentrations of some species were associated with the factors: season, air change rate, and relative humidity.

Este trabajo tiene como objetivo explicar los motivos que tuvieron 32 investigadores(as) para salir al extranjero y retornar a México en el marco del programa de repatriación del CONACYT.  La perspectiva de Bernard Lahire sobre socialización resultó útil porque permite ver los recorridos biográficos de los individuos al momento de formar parte de ciertos grupos o instituciones. Recurrimos al método biográfico para poder captar los procesos de socialización. La perspectiva de Lahire se complementa con la categoría contextos de recepción que permite leer teóricamente la dinámica de la repatriación y a su vez entender los motivos para salir y retornar. Si bien existe una política que incentiva el retorno, son los grupos de investigación e instituciones quienes determinan el retorno.

The Common Good: Collaborative Corporate Citizenship
Authors: Lang Josephine
Published: January 2023

I propose a model of emergent collaborative corporate citizenship (CCC) in which organizations jointly develop dynamic capabilities to address social and environmental concerns through collaborative sense-making and collaborative actions. Using a complexity science framework, I describe how the system conditions of organizational diversity and an economy of interdependence enhance the capability for organizing around responses to social and environmental imperatives. Inter-organizational collective actions magnify and intensify how organizations modify their strategies to incorporate social and environmental considerations. As organizations collaboratively modify their sense-making mechanisms, amend their decision criteria, and adapt their operational routines to incorporate social and environmental responsiveness, the larger business system is thereby changed.

Published: January 2023

This work aimed to understand strategies that the nursing staff from an Intensive Care Unit applies to situations involving the care of a person with brain death as a potential donor. The study was conducted through qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research, carried out by 14 members of the nursing staff who work with the potential organ donor. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, and a thematic context analysis was applied. The strategies of coping focused on emotion were: escape from reality, and reframe the event. And the strategies focused on the problem were: provide competent care, and search for other support. It is concluded that caring for a person with brain death is constituted as a very stressful event to the nursing professionals. These professionals need institutional support to better cope with these situations, because depending on how they manage their task, it may directly influence the assistance provided to patients.

This study aimed to identify the presence of the Nursing Diagnosis Risk for Falls in hospitalized patients with ischemic heart disease in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. This was a descriptive and quantitative study. Data collection happened from July 2010 to February 2011, through interviews, physical examination and by consulting medical records. We used an instrument to investigate the clinical and socio-demographic profile of the patients and also a check-list consisting of the Nursing Diagnosis risk factors. Of the 86 participants, 56.5% were male, mean age of 63.95 (±12.6) years. All the participants had more than two risk factors for falls, 46.5% presented six to nine concurrent risk factors. Among the investigated risk factors we identified: use of antihypertensive drugs (98.8%), visual impairment (66.3%), and sleeplessness (54.3%). Therefore, it is important for nurses to plan the care in order to prevent falls, especially for hospitalized patients with ischemic heart disease.

The low treatment adherence is one of the major factors for the lack of blood pressure control and risk for cardiovascular diseases. We aimed to analyze the hypertensive user's adherence to drug therapy. A descriptive study carried out with 400 hypertensive users, from May to August 2010, through interviews. Most interviewees were female (67.2%), aged over 60 (54.3%) and with brown skin (57.4%). 326 (81.5%) users were making regular use of medicine with a predominance of those with over 10 years of diagnosis (33.5%), those with up to 5 years of treatment (31.0%), and those who received the complete medication provided by SUS (39.2%). The knowledge on the types of antihypertensive drugs and the daily frequency of medication prevailed regardless the regularity of medication, the same happened regarding the lack of knowledge on side effects, to the discomforts caused and the complexity of drug therapy. We concluded that the treatment adherence prevailed in most users.

We aimed to know the family health professionals' perception on health promotion; identify the practices adopted to promote health; and identify the easiness and difficulties to carry out such practices. This is a qualitative research, carried out in four Family Health Units in Fortaleza, CE, Brazil. 11 nursing professionals of the teams were subjects of study; the data were collected by interviews and analyzed through the Discourse of Collective Subject – DCS. According to the collected speeches, health promotion means the transmission of knowledge in educational sessions, the prevention and treatment of diseases, improving the quality of life. The used practices followed the programs recommended by the Health Department. Among the difficulties we verified the lack of interest both from the patients as well as from the nursing professionals.

We aimed to investigate the care in thermoregulation of the newborn during the admission in a High Complexity Pediatric Emergency Unit. Retrospective documentary study, carried out in a teaching hospital of Ceará, Brazil. Data collection was performed through a form, 149 medical records of newborns with a request for transfer to neonatal intensive care unit. There was prevalence of males, at term, weighing between 2,500 and 3,999 grams, and born vaginally in hospitals. Among the main causes that led to the unit transfer request, 44.3% presented respiratory disorders. Most (85.9%) was Normothermic, and the most evident care was checking the axillary temperature and the use of heat sources (incubator, radiant heat source). We concluded that mild hypothermia was the most present risk indicator and that cares concerning the thermoregulation in the admission of the newborn are consistent with the clinical manifestations presented.

The aging population is a challenge to society and health professionals. This qualitative study aimed to understand the experiences of the elderly in relation to their autonomy during hospitalization. We interviewed eleven seniors, who were hospitalized in two hospitals in the northern Rio Grande do Sul between April and October, 2010. Data were collected through interviews and analyzed based on the phenomenological reference. The results highlighted the experiences and meanings of hospitalization, and built the categories: experiencing vulnerability, living with professional paternalism and becoming aware of the relative autonomy. From the categories, a phenomenon emerged: Emerging vulnerability and dependence on professionals as limiting the autonomy of the elderly hospitalized. The results encourage professionals to seek new care strategies in order to allow the elderly to exercise their autonomy during hospitalization.

This quantitative study aims to evaluate pregnant adolescents in relation to socio demographic, gynecological and obstetric aspects and the experience of domestic violence. The subjects were 34 pregnant adolescents who got prenatal care in the city of São Francisco do Conde (Bahia, Brazil). Interviews were conducted. The majority of pregnant adolescents was between 16 and 19 years old and was single, black, non-educated, and financially dependent on parents or husband/partner, having initiated a sexual relationship before the age of 15. More than 40% declared a history of domestic violence. Some of them revealed the experience of domestic violence during pregnancy. In face of this reality, a professional look is necessary in order to recognize domestic violence as an aggravating factor to the health of these adolescents, a fact which has not been perceived in health care.

Published: January 2023

This study aimed to investigate the impacts of work-related diseases in the worker’s lives, as well as analyze the contributions of studies to the nursing science, especially in the area of occupational health nursing. It is an integrative review with the following guiding question: What are the limitations and consequences caused by cumulative trauma disorders (CTD) in the worker’s lives reported in the nursing scientific production during the last five years (2006 to 2010). The descriptors used were: Cumulative Trauma Disorders and Occupational Health. We selected 14 articles and these were grouped according to common purposes, main limitations and consequences of CTD, and relevant information to contributions of studies in the area of Occupational Health Nursing. We concluded that the scientific production on this subject brings few effective contributions, and that further studies are needed to subsidize care strategies aimed at promoting health and quality of life of these workers.

Published: January 2023

This is a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research aimed at analyzing nursing managers’ knowledge on adherence to nursing workers monitoring after occupational accidents due to exposure to biological fluids, seeking to recommend strategies to reduce monitoring abandonment. We interviewed twelve nursing managers from health institutions in the city of Curitiba-Paraná, from August to November 2010, and after the transcription of these interviews we carried out a thematic analysis. Results showed that eight out of the twelve interviewed nurses have no worker supervision control with regards to complete post-exposure monitoring. The interaction between the victim’s workplace and health institutions was proposed to improve monitoring. Therefore, nurse managers and technical managers should raise awareness and monitor workers seeking to achieve adherence to full accompaniment policies and compliance with the current legislation in order to make this practice more efficient.

Published: January 2023

This study aimed to identify the conditioning factors to self-care practice of ostomy patients, and verify knowledge and practices on stoma care. Descriptive and qualitative study, referencing the Orem’s Self-Care Theory, carried out at the Ostomy Association of Fortaleza-CE, Brazil, in June and July 2007. We identified as the main conditioning factors for self-care: male, aged over 51 years, low education, from the capital city/metropolitan area, married, and with low family income. From the participants’ statements, emerged three categories: Learning to take care of stoma: education-support system; Stoma Care: knowledge and practices; and Difficulties found in the practice of self-care. It was concluded that ostomy patients require a multidimensional and individualized nursing care, which enables them to perform self-care effectively.

Published: January 2023

Glutathione (GSH) is one of the most important components of the cellular antioxidant system, and it is able to exert several pleiotropic functions influencing cell growth, proliferation, adaptation and death. It has been demonstrated that changes in GSH levels underlie the pathogenesis of many human diseases, including cancer. In detail, although on one hand GSH homeostasis plays a protective role from the onset of cancer, on the other, it is involved in cancer progression and in therapy resistance. In this review, after a brief report on the physiological role of GSH, we have focused the attention on its role in cancer and refractoriness to anticancer therapy giving an update on the preclinical and clinical studies relied on the compounds targeting GSH system. Based on these considerations, a deeper knowledge of GSH-dependent network can be crucial to identify new strategies for preventing and/or curing cancer.
