Factors associated with burnout among internationally educated nurses: A scoping review
Authors: Chen Guanhua , Ogata Yasuko , Sasaki Miki 
Published: December 2024

AbstractBackgroundThe increasing nursing shortage in the healthcare industry has become a concern in many countries. Recruiting certified nurses from outside a country is one strategy to address this shortage. While the hiring of internationally educated nurses (IENs) fills the labor gap, a supportive work environment is necessary to retain IENs in the field.MethodsWe conducted this scoping review based on the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) and PRISMA‐ScR guidelines. It is reported along with the PRISMA‐ScR checklist. A literature search was conducted across six electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Ichushi, and CNKI) on September 8, 2023, from which 722 articles were identified. Titles and abstracts were initially screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, followed by a full‐text review of the selected articles. Eight articles satisfied the search criteria.FindingsFrom the characteristics of the factors related to nurses’ burnout, all the components were categorized into organizational and individual factors. Organizational factors that contribute to higher burnout include poor professional‐practice environment, high patient‐to‐nurse ratios, lower job satisfaction, and working in hospital wards and private hospitals. Individual factors include being younger IENs, being single (not married), being female, possessing higher educational degrees, short duration of employment, religion (Muslim), job title as a staff nurse, high stress, poor local‐language capability, and first‐time employment in a host country.DiscussionIndividual factors are more specific to IENs’ backgrounds, whereas organizational factors are common to both internationally educated and host‐country nurses. Both factors should be considered to reduce burnout among IENs.Implications for nursingHealthcare organizations and administrators can develop targeted strategies to prevent and address the burnout experienced by IENs. Also providing understanding and support for religious backgrounds and language proficiency is crucial for alleviating intercultural stress. Through these measures, it is essential to create a work environment where internationally educated nurses can feel secure and comfortable.
The mediating role of nurses' spiritual well‐being between moral resilience and compassion fatigue: A multicenter structural equation model study
Authors: Alshammari Mohammed Hamdan , Alboliteeh Mohammad 
Published: December 2024

AbstractAimsTo investigate the mediating role of spiritual well‐being in the association between compassion fatigue and moral resilience among nurses.BackgroundNurses are inevitably placed in situations of compassion fatigue. Their moral resilience and spiritual well‐being may play a crucial role in mitigating the impacts of compassion fatigue. Nonetheless, spiritual well‐being, which mediates the influence between compassion fatigue and moral resilience, remains scarce among nurses.DesignCross‐sectional and correlational design.MethodsNurses (n = 465) from four government‐owned tertiary hospitals in Saudi Arabia were recruited and completed three self‐report scales from July to December 2023. Descriptive statistics (e.g., mean, standard deviation, frequency, and proportions) and inferential statistics (Spearman rho and structural equation modeling) were used for data analysis.ResultsThe emerging model afforded acceptable model fit parameters. Moral resilience had a negative effect on compassion fatigue (β = –0.05, p = 0.003) and a positive influence on spiritual well‐being (β = 0.51, p = 0.003). Spiritual well‐being negatively influenced compassion fatigue (β = –0.90, p = 0.003). Moral resilience had a moderate, negative, indirect effect on compassion fatigue through the mediation of spiritual well‐being (β = –0.47, p = 0.002).ConclusionOur study offered a model that validated the mediating role of spiritual well‐being in the association between moral resilience and compassion fatigue. Moral resilience directly and indirectly influences spiritual well‐being and compassion fatigue, respectively.Implications for nursing practice and policyHealthcare institutions that employ nurses must continually assess compassion fatigue levels and provide necessary interventions. Nurses, nurse managers, and healthcare institutions may leverage moral resilience to improve nurses’ spiritual well‐being while averting the negative effects of compassion fatigue. Healthcare institutions may incorporate spiritual care into their mainstream support interventions to enhance their compassion, reduce fatigue, and enhance their mental well‐being.

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTFlos sophorae immaturus (FSI) is rich in polyphenols and has been consumed as a health food. This study aimed to explore the impacts of dry heating (DH) and hydrothermal treatment (HT) on the phenolic content of FSI and their degrading kinetics, thereby elucidating the phenolic conversion patterns during processing at different temperatures. Results showed that DH led to a substantial decrease in total flavonoids and total phenols in FSI from 5 to 60 min at a maximum of 210°C. Conversely, FSI subjected to HT exhibited an opposing trend at a maximum of 90°C. Moreover, the highest rutin content (170.2 mg/g) was observed in HT‐FSI at 90°C for 120 min, whereas quercetin exhibited the lowest content (5.4 mg/g), indicating a potential termination of conversion. Correspondingly, the rutin‐degrading enzyme (RDE) activity of HT‐FSI (0.814 U) decreased beginning at 50°C for 120 min and reached the lowest level (0.015 U) when treated at 90°C for 60 min. In contrast, the RDE of DH‐FSI (0.463 U) was inactivated under the same processing conditions, yet its lowest level (0.041 U) remained significantly higher than that of HT‐FSI. Furthermore, the first‐order kinetics revealed that the activation energy of rutin extracted from the HT‐FSI (63.15 kJ/mol) was higher than that of the DH‐FSI (26.97 kJ/mol), suggesting that rutin conversion was much more difficult during HT. Overall, treating FSI with HT at 90°C for 60 min might be an effective method for rutin retention by inactivating RDE activity.

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTObjectiveSocial media content created by users with different personality traits presents various sentiment tendencies, easily leading to irrational public opinion. This study aims to explore the relationships between users' personality traits and sentiment tendencies of user‐generated content (UGC).MethodWe crawled 18,686 tweets of 1, 215 users from Twitter to figure out the relationships between personality traits and sentiment tendencies. This study utilizes Essays and Sentiment datasets to train machine learning models for the identification of personality traits and sentiment tendencies and then explores the configuration effect of personality traits on sentiment tendency via crisp‐set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (csQCA).ResultThe findings suggest that (1) one‐dimensional personality trait is not a necessary condition for the sentiment tendencies of UGC. (2) There are multiple equivalent configurations that lead to the sentiment tendencies of UGC.ConclusionThe study suggests that the sentiment tendencies pattern of UGC can be discovered via the configurations of various dimensions of personality traits.

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTIntroductionEarly maladaptive schemas (EMSs) are among the key vulnerability factors explaining the development and persistence of symptoms in borderline personality disorder (BPD). Furthermore, it was suggested that EMSs might impact recovery‐related outcomes, including psychological and recovery capital, among individuals with BPD.AimsTo investigate the relationship among EMSs, psychological and recovery capital in individuals with BPD disorder.MethodA descriptive correlational research design was conducted in Minya Outpatients' Psychiatric Hospital Clinic, using the Young Schema Questionnaire–Short Form (YSQ‐S2), Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PCQ) and Recovery Assessment Scale (RAS) to collect data from 200 individuals with BPD.ResultThe findings suggest that EMSs significantly correlated with the total psychological and recovery capital scores (0.119, 0.024 and −0.025, 0.05). Moreover, linear regression analyses exhibit that EMSs, regarding social isolation failure and vulnerability to harm, are significant negative predictors of recovery capital (t = −2.760, p = 0.006 and t = −3.919, p < 0.001, respectively).ImplicationThe complex interplay between EMSs and recovery‐related outcomes provides valuable insights for planning and implementing structured psychotherapeutic interventions based on specific schema patterns. Our existing findings can also serve as a valuable reference for mental health nursing in clinical practice by enhancing their understanding of the underlying causes of maladaptive behaviours commonly seen in BPD, allowing them to tailor patient‐centred care interventions and thereby reduce the risk of relapse.
Genomic Islands of Divergence Between Drosophila yakuba Subspecies are Predominantly Driven by Chromosomal Inversions and the Recombination Landscape

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTDuring the early stages of local adaptation and speciation, genetic differences tend to accumulate at certain regions of the genome leading to the formation of genomic islands of divergence (GIDs). This pattern may be due to selection and/or difference in the rate of recombination. Here, we investigate the possible causes of GIDs in Drosophila yakuba mayottensis, and reconfirm using field collection its association with toxic noni (Morinda citrifolia) fruits on the Mayotte island. Population genomics revealed lack of genetic structure on the island and identified 23 GIDs distinguishing D. y. mayottensis from generalist mainland populations of D. y. yakuba. The GIDs were enriched with gene families involved in the metabolism of lipids, sugars, peptides and xenobiotics, suggesting a role in host shift. We assembled a new genome for D. y. mayottensis and identified five novel chromosomal inversions. Twenty one GIDs (~99% of outlier windows) fell in low recombining regions or subspecies‐specific inversions. However, only two GIDs were in collinear, normally recombining regions suggesting a signal of hard selective sweeps. Unlike D. y. mayottensis, D. sechellia, the only other noni‐specialist, is known to be homosequential with its generalist relatives. Thus, whereas structural variation may disproportionally shape GIDs in some species, striking parallel adaptations can occur between species despite distinct genomic architectures.

Published: December 2024

AbstractThe purpose of the Exchange feature is to publish discussions that engage, advance and initiate new debates in the study of nations and nationalism. This Exchange article is on the subject of the global far right. In the first part, Léonie de Jonge and Talita Tanscheit briefly introduce the topic, emphasising the need for such a dialogue. In the remainder of the exchange, Vasiliki Georgiadou, Daphne Halikiopoulou and Cristóbal Rovira Kaltwasser address the following four questions: (1) Is the far right a global phenomenon? (2) What is causing it? (3) What are the implications of the rise of the far right for democracy? (4) What can we learn from comparing Europe and Latin America? By attempting to deprovincialise scholarship on the far right, our goal is to foster cross‐regional dialogue and highlight the importance of comparative research between these two regions.
Human Population and the Biosphere

Published: December 2024

AbstractThe neglect of population in national and international discourses on environment and development has led to a misleading picture of policy options. This article reconstructs the language in which extreme poverty and economic development are discussed by deploying recent advances in our understanding of the population–consumption–biosphere nexus. The new perspective is applied to examine both the global environmental impact and the effects on local ecosystems of individual choices over consumption and reproduction. The analytical apparatus developed here is then used on wide‐ranging evidence to explain and measure humanity's ecological overreach. The authors study the pressures people impose on their local ecosystems to show why persistently high population growth in the world's poorest regions is undermining their ecosystems, in some cases trapping communities in poverty.

Published: December 2024

ABSTRACTAimPublic health nurses working in high schools have few set tasks, and there is limited research available on their flexible role. Therefore, the aim of the study was to describe public health nurses’ perspectives on their role when working in Norwegian high schools.DesignA qualitative descriptive design, with an inductive approach.SampleEight public health nurses with at least 1‐year of experience working in high schools in Norway.MethodsIndividual, semi‐structured interviews were analyzed using qualitative content analysis.ResultsPublic health nurses viewed clinical practice as being the main purpose of their role, and the role was founded on both physical and digital availability. Close collaboration within the school and with external collaboration partners was crucial when public health nurses executed their role. The flexible nature of the role presented navigational challenges for public health nurses, who needed to balance competing demands in a busy work environment. Nevertheless, public health nurses demonstrated a strong commitment to their role and experienced that they made a difference to the students they served and the schools in which they worked.ConclusionsThe study underlined the importance of recognizing the totality of the public health nursing role and the ethical challenges derived from navigating different perspectives of the role.

AbstractBackgroundIn 2010, Denmark was the first country to implement a targeted routine antenatal anti‐D prophylaxis (tRAADP) program, offering fetal RHD genotyping to all nonimmunized D negative pregnant women. The program represented a shift from only postnatal prophylaxis to a combined antenatal and postnatal prophylaxis. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical effect of tRAADP in Denmark.Study Design and MethodsThis nationwide registry‐based cohort study included all D negative women who gave birth between 2004–2020, identified through the National Medical Birth Register and the Departments of Clinical Immunology in Denmark. The clinical effect of tRAADP was assessed by comparing the incidence of new D immunization between 2004–2009 (non‐tRAADP‐cohort) and 2011–2018 (tRAADP‐cohort).ResultsA total of 282 women were D immunized during pregnancy between 2004–2009 (non‐tRAADP‐cohort), and 167 between 2011–2018 (tRAADP‐cohort). The incidence of new D immunization decreased from 0.46% (95% CI 0.41–0.52) in the non‐tRAADP‐cohort to 0.22% (95% CI 0.19–0.25) in the tRAADP‐cohort. The risk reduction was statistically significant p < 0.001. Notably, in the tRAADP cohort 0.1% (95% CI 0.08–0.12) of new D immunizations occurred before the time of antenatal prophylaxis.DiscussiontRAADP significantly reduced the incidence of new D immunization by more than half, thus demonstrating the expected effect. However, even with full adherence to the current program, some women with early fetomaternal hemorrhage (FMH) were still at risk. Future studies may evaluate the impact of administering an additional tRAADP dose earlier in the second trimester to prevent this.
Investigation on
L
-rhamnose metabolism of
Loigolactobacillus coryniformis
subsp.
coryniformis
DSM 20001 and its propionate-containing fermentates

ABSTRACT

Propionate is an important short-chain carboxylic acid (SCCA) that serves as an effective antimicrobial agent for food preservation. Previous research has highlighted that few
Lactobacillaceae
can synthesize propionate by metabolizing deoxyhexoses via the fermentation intermediate 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PD). In this study, we investigated propionate production by
Loigolactobacillus coryniformis
subsp.
coryniformis
DSM 20001 while utilizing L-rhamnose as the primary carbon source. We cultivated
L. coryniformis
in small-scale anaerobic bioreactors at 30°C and pH 6.5 for 72 h and monitored the expression of key genes associated with deoxyhexose metabolism using quantitative PCR. In addition, we assessed the contribution of individual SCCA to the antimicrobial activity of the fermentate against common foodborne pathogens, including
Escherichia coli
,
Salmonella enterica
,
Klebsiella oxytoca
,
Staphylococcus aureus
,
Candida albicans
,
Aspergillus niger
,
Penicillium roqueforti
, and
Penicillium purpurogenum
using broth dilution assays. During cultivation, we observed the production of up to 16 mM propionate, alongside other metabolites such as lactate (26 mM), formate (2 mM), and acetate (4 mM), derived from 32 mM L-rhamnose. Genes related to L-rhamnose utilization were upregulated within the initial 48 h, while genes involved in 1,2-PD utilization remained highly transcribed throughout fermentation. Comparing the antimicrobial efficacy of the fermentates to synthetic SCCA mixtures, bacterial indicator strains were more sensitive than molds and yeast. Propionate was the primary SCCA responsible for inhibitory activity; inhibition was reduced if indicator strains were able to use lactate.

IMPORTANCE

Worldwide, approximately 30% of food produced is lost. Despite the application of complementary treatment methods, microbial food spoilage can occur along the entire value chain. The rising concern about food waste has led to increasing interest in natural preservation approaches.
Lactobacillaceae
fermentative systems produce a variety of short-chain carboxylic acid (SCCA) with antimicrobial potential, and we present here fundamental insight into the only recently discovered deoxyhexose metabolism of
Loigolactobacillus coryniformis
producing the antimicrobial SCCA propionate. We developed a bioprocess to produce propionate from L-rhamnose under controlled conditions as a first step toward the exploitation of L-rhamnose metabolism in the production of antimicrobial fermentates for use in the food industry, potentially replacing chemical alternatives. Our investigations highlight the major contribution of propionate in antimicrobial activity but also indicate the issue of co-occurring fermentable metabolites, which can affect the efficiency of fermentates.
