IntroductionVaccination-related conspiracy ideation is related to reduced compliance with public health advice globally. Such beliefs have previously been linked to the delusion-proneness trait. However, it is not known how this extends to getting vaccinated.MethodsHere, we examined how delusion-proneness, as assessed by Peters et al. Delusions Inventory (PDI), is associated with COVID-19 vaccination in a sample of 273 subjects. We also examined whether delusion-proneness predicted the time to get vaccinated, after the vaccine became available.ResultsUnvaccinated subjects were more delusion-prone than vaccinated subjects (W=2225.5, p&lt;0.001, effect-size=0.27). Among vaccinated subjects, higher delusion-proneness was related to longer time to get vaccinated (rs=0.27, p&lt;0.001). These effects remained after adjusting for anxiety, ADHD, and ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) traits as well as for psychiatric diagnoses and sex. Path analyses indicated that the effect of delusion-proneness on vaccination rate was strongly mediated through COVID-19 conspiracy ideation, suggesting that delusion prone individuals first develop specific delusion-like ideas regarding vaccination, which then delays vaccination. An exploratory analysis of written text by subjects instructed to explain why they had vaccinated or not, revealed a difference in reasoning between the groups. Unvaccinated individuals were primarily motivated by concerns about personal safety and potential side effects, while vaccinated individuals stated a desire to protect themselves and others as the primary reasons to get vaccinated. DiscussionOur results suggest that delusion-proneness is a key factor for attaining conspiracy beliefs, at least in relation to COVID-19 pandemic, and associated with lower vaccination rates as well as longer time to get vaccinated.

IntroductionBehavioral inhibition is a temperamental factor that increases the risk of internalizing disorders. Therefore, the identification of highly inhibited children is of great importance. However, informant discrepancies make this process difficult. In a cluster analytic approach, we aimed to use both parent and teacher reports of behavioral inhibition in order to gain a more detailed picture about children’s behavioral inhibition in different contexts and to characterize highly inhibited children.MethodsParents and teachers of 318 preschool children completed a questionnaire, which included the Behavioral Inhibition Questionnaire (BIQ) and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Parents also reported their parenting behavior on the Multidimensional Assessment of Parenting Questionnaire (MAPS). A two-step cluster analysis was conducted on BIQ parent and teacher reports, and the resulting clusters were compared on the SDQ externalizing and internalizing subscales. Multinomial logistic regression analyses were conducted separately for girls and boys to predict cluster membership based on the MAPS hostility, lax control and physical control subscales.ResultsFour clusters were identified, labelled as medium-low (ML), low-elevated (LE), elevated-elevated (EE) and high-high (HH), based on the levels of BIQ parent and teacher reports, respectively. In the HH cluster, mean scores of the SDQ internalizing subscales as reported by parents and teachers were significantly higher, and in boys but not in girls, mean scores of the SDQ externalizing subscale as reported by teachers were lower than in the other clusters. High levels of hostility predicted group membership of HH compared to LE and EE in both genders. Furthermore, in boys, lax control and physical control were also found to be significant when comparing HH to EE and LE, respectively.DiscussionOur results suggest that the joint use of parent and teacher reports on behavioral inhibition may increase the ability to identify highly inhibited children at risk of developing internalizing disorders and add to our understanding of the underpinnings of children’s inhibited behavior in different contexts.

IntroductionContracting HIV, syphilis, hepatitis B virus (HBV), and malaria during pregnancy significantly affects the health of the woman, the pregnancy, and the unborn child. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends testing pregnant women for these infections to achieve triple elimination of mother-to-child transmissions. However, this goal has not been fully realized in low- to medium-income countries, primarily due to segmented testing practices. This study aimed to investigate the effect of introducing a four-tests panel on the quality of antenatal care (ANC) among pregnant women attending selected Primary Health Care facilities in Kenya.MethodsUsing a multi-design approach, we analyzed ANC medical records from 577 pregnant women attending eight facilities across four different counties. Blood from the women fingerpick was tested for HIV, Syphilis Hepatitis B Virus and Malaria using the four-tests panel and the results compared to those in the medical records.ResultsOut of 577 ANC women, only 8.3% had test results for all four infections available. The majority of the mothers had been tested for syphilis (93.7%), HIV (78.5%), and malaria (62.6%), only 19.5% had been tested for HBV. Testing the women using the 4-tests panel yielded positivity rates of 6.9% for HIV, 0.9% for syphilis, 1.9% for malaria, and 1.1% for HBV. Among those without previous test results, the positivity rate was 2.8% for syphilis, 13.8% for HIV (with 10.6% testing positive for recent p24 infections, F = 24.876, p &lt; 0.001), 2.3% for malaria, and 4.5% for HBV, with 83.3% of these individuals having no prior test results. The mean positivity rate of those tested using the 4-tests panel compared to segmented single tests was significantly different. The panel was cost-effective and user-friendly for healthcare workers, and in facilities facing staff shortages, it reduced turnaround time and workloads by half. The use of the panel also improved the profiling of ANC mothers and enhanced data management for the four infections by 91.7%.ConclusionAdopting the 4-tests panel has the potential to improve test result outputs, enhance the quality-of-service delivery, and contribute significantly to the achievement of triple elimination goals.

ObjectiveThe objective of this study is to assess the scope of existing practice, nature, and impact of nurse-led type 2 diabetic foot prevention services and educational programmes in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA).IntroductionType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in SSA imposes a heavy burden on current healthcare services. Complications such as foot ulcers can have a significant impact on patient care and healthcare resources. It is imperative to identify patients at risk of developing diabetic foot complications and empower them with diabetes self-management education and support from specialised foot clinics is crucial. However, the availability of such programmes and services in SSA is limited.Inclusion criteriaStudies of nurse-led diabetic foot prevention services and/or educational programmes in low- or middle-income countries in SSA for adults with T2DM, written in English, between August 2013 and March 2024 were considered.MethodsFollowing the standard Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines for conducting and reporting scoping reviews, searches were conducted on four electronic databases (CINAHL, ProQuest, MEDLINE, and Scopus) and Google Scholar. The titles and abstracts were scrutinised. All eligible papers were retrieved and screened for full text.ResultsThe review included ten studies (across 14 papers), all of which focused on nurse-led diabetes self-management education (DSME) programmes in SSA. There are no specific educational programmes or services led by nurses that focus exclusively on diabetic foot prevention. The analysis highlighted the components of successful nurse-led DSMEs that led to positive glycaemic control and self-care behaviors, including the focus on behavior change and the DSME should be co-produced with service users. The theoretical aspects of the DSME include evidence-based, structured, interactive, culturally and linguistically appropriate group-based activities. The DSME should be delivered over a period of several weeks, and sessions should last between 1.5 and 2 h. Barriers to delivery and participation include the rainy season, stockouts, time and resources needed, and a DSME that meets diverse levels of literacy and education.ConclusionThere is a heightened need for nurse-led, co-produced, culturally congruent, frugal, and sustainable education interventions or programmes. There is also a need for diabetic foot screening and foot ulcer prevention services that can operate sustainably alongside these educational interventions through task-shifted, simple, and frugal initiatives.

BackgroundTo investigate the KAP toward family-based treatment among parents of children with leukemia.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted between December, 2022 and July, 2023 in the Pediatric hematologic oncology department of West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University. The study population consisted of parents of children diagnosed with leukemia. Their demographic characteristics and KAP toward family-based treatment for leukemia were collected by self-administered questionnaires.ResultsA total of 482 parents participated, including 379 (78.63%) females, with an average age of 35.83 ± 6.40 years. The mean scores for KAP were 7.28 ± 1.13 (possible range: 0–10), 37.82 ± 4.38 (possible range: 9–45), and 40.09 ± 4.17 (possible range: 9–45), respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the knowledge score (OR = 1.48, 95% CI: [1.08–2.05], P = 0.016), attitude score (OR = 1.31, 95% CI: [1.18–1.46], P &lt; 0.001), education of junior college and above (OR = 11.28, 95% CI: [1.94–65.65], P = 0.007), and monthly income of 5,000–10,000 Yuan (OR = 10.88, 95% CI: [1.15–102.98], P = 0.037) were independently associated with a proactive practice. Structural equation modeling (SEM) results highlighted the significant direct impact of knowledge on attitude (β = 0.72, P = 0.002), attitude on practice (β = 0.57, P &lt; 0.001), and knowledge on practice (β = 0.81, P &lt; 0.001).ConclusionParents of children with leukemia demonstrated inadequate knowledge, but positive attitudes and proactive practices toward family-based treatment for leukemia. Future interventions should not only prioritize augmenting parental knowledge through educational initiatives but also focus on fostering positive attitudes and providing support for both knowledge and practical parenting skills to facilitate proactive involvement.
Early childhood psychopathology and parental mental health during the COVID-19 pandemic: the effects of pandemic restrictions on 0- to 3-year-olds

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic placed many restrictions on families and affected the mental health of parents and children. The present study examines how the restrictions imposed during the pandemic and parental mental health affect early childhood psychopathology.MethodFrom September 2019 to December 2021, the Outpatient Department of Family Therapy at the Institute for Psychosocial Prevention, Heidelberg surveyed a clinical sample of 249 families who sought consultation for early childhood psychopathology. Early childhood psychopathology in children aged 0–3 years was assessed using the German Questionnaire for Crying, Feeding and Sleeping and the German version of the Child Behavior Checklist 1½–5. The Patient Health Questionnaire provided information on parental depressiveness and generalized anxiety. At the same time, the Stringency Index as part of the Oxford Coronavirus Government Response Tracker indicated the severity of COVID restrictions in Germany.ResultsDependent comparisons did not reveal significant differences in the infants' regulatory problems (n = 165, mean age = 8 months) during the lockdown compared to reopening phases. However, older children (n = 84, mean age = 25 months) exhibited more behavioral problems during lockdowns compared to reopening phases (Cohen's d = 0.32, p = .04). Subsequent regression analyses confirmed a slight increase in behavioral problems only among children aged 1.5–3 years (p = .047, R2 = .08), but did not indicate any increase in parental mental health problems when more restrictions were in place. However, parental depressiveness had a strong independent effect on early childhood psychopathology. A hierarchical regression analysis indicated that psychopathology in children aged 1.5–3 years is best explained by female child gender, high parental depressiveness, and more severe restrictions during the COVID-19 pandemic (p &lt; .001, R2 = .17) whereas early childhood psychopathology in infants aged 0-1.5 years is more prevalent in younger and male children with parents experiencing higher levels of depressiveness (p &lt; .001, R2 = .26).DiscussionThe study found no increase in infant regulatory disorders or parental depressiveness and generalized anxiety during the pandemic. However, older children exhibited more behavioral problems during more severe pandemic restrictions. The study supports the provision of parent-child support during crises and beyond, as early childhood psychopathology was strongly associated with parental depressiveness.
The role of optometry in healthcare for visually impaired older adult populations: a Swiss case study
Authors: Seifert Alexander , Nosch Daniela S. 
Published: November 2024

BackgroundVisual impairment (VI) is common among older adults aged 70 years and older, and its prevalence increases with advancing age. The optometry profession may play an important role in a patient-centred health system that incorporates medical and psychosocial aspects by working closely with low vision counselling services (LVCS). This paper investigates the current level of cooperation between optometry and LVCS by analysing the referral practice of optometrists to LVCS for the older population with VI, based on the PROVIAGE study.MethodsA national, telephone-based survey of individuals aged ≥70 years and an online survey of professionals in ophthalmology, optometry and LVCS was conducted in 2022 across Switzerland.ResultsThe responses of 154 individuals with VI and 272 professionals (123 ophthalmologists, 126 optometrists and 23 staff of low vision rehabilitation consulting centres) were analysed. Among the respondents with age-related VI, 33.1% stated that they were aware of LVCS. Of these, however, only 11.7% reported that they had visited such centres during the last five years. Sixty-eight percent of respondents attended the ophthalmologist, but only 1.3% went to the optometrist for vision-related problems. Among ophthalmologists, 95.9% indicated that they had referred patients to LVCS, whereas only 58.8% of optometrists had done so.ConclusionsThe results of this study highlighted the relationship between the different clinician referrals, patient needs, and potential barriers preventing referrals towards older adults in Switzerland. A stronger cooperation between professions in the care network will enhance vision care for the ageing population without the need for additional infrastructure.
Psychological and sociodemographic factors associated with hypoactive sexual desire in Ecuadorian women

Published: November 2024

IntroductionHuman sexuality is a multifaceted process, and sexual desire plays a central role in the triphasic model of the sexual response cycle, as proposed by Helen Singer Kaplan.MethodsIn this cross-sectional correlational study, we examined the relationship between various sociodemographic factors, such as age and motherhood, and sexual variables, including erotophobia, erotophilia, homophobia, and unconventional sex, with hypoactive sexual desire in women from Quito, Ecuador. The study sample comprised 421 women between the ages of 18 and 50, who were administered the Revised Sexual Opinion Survey and the Inhibited Sexual Desire Scale to assess their sexual attitudes and levels of desire.ResultsThe findings revealed that age (F = 7.13, p &lt; 0.001) and motherhood (F = 13.72, p &lt; 0.001) had a significant impact on inhibited sexual desire. Furthermore, significant correlations were observed between inhibited sexual desire and age (r = 0.16, p &lt; 0.001), motherhood (r = 0.18, p &lt; 0.001), erotophobia (r = 0.19, p &lt; 0.001), erotophilia (r = −0.21, p &lt; 0.001), and homophobia (r = −0.18, p &lt; 0.001).DiscussionThese results suggest that women who are older, mothers, or have higher levels of erotophobia are more likely to experience hypoactive sexual desire. In contrast, higher levels of erotophilia and homophobia were inversely related to hypoactive sexual desire. This contributes to a deeper understanding of how different personal and sexual attitudes influence sexual desire in Ecuadorian women.

Представлены результаты научно-хозяйственных опытов по оценке кормовой и продуктивной ценности силосов, заготовленных из злаково-бобовых смесей, при кормлении голштинизированных коров черно-пестрой породы. Как показали проведенные лабораторные исследования, силос из смеси козлятника восточного и костреца безостого имел преимущество над силосом из смеси люцерны и костреца безостого, превосходя его по содержанию обменной энергии на 1,03 МДж, или на 11,9%, по количеству сырого протеина — на 25 г/кг (или на 20,8%), сырого жира — на 10,7 г (или на 16,3%), сахара — на 6,9 г/кг (или на 39,2%),а концентрация сырой клетчатки в нем была ниже на 43 г/кг (или на 14,5%), в пересчете на сухое вещество корма. Использование в рационе дойных коров силоса из смеси нетрадиционной бобовой культуры — козлятника восточного с кострецом безостым взамен силоса из смеси люцерны с кострецом безостым позволяет увеличить молочную продуктивность животных и повысить содержание молочного белка и сахара на 9,9 и 5,3%, соответственно, за счет сбалансированного соотношения энергии, протеина и фракций структурных углеводов.
The paper presents the results of scientific and economic experiments aimed at assessing feed energy and nutritional value of silage. The analyzed fodder was made from grass-legume mixtures to feed black-and-white Holstein cows. The conducted laboratory studies showed the advantage of silage from a mixture of fodder galega and awnless brome over silage from a mixture of alfalfa and awnless brome. On a dry-matter basis the first fodder outran the second one in metabolizable energy by 1.03 MJ, or 11.9%, the content of crude protein by 25 g/kg (or 20.8%), crude fat by 10.7 g (or 16.3%), sugar by 6.9 g/kg (or 39.2%), the concentration of crude fiber in it was lower by 43 g/kg (or 14.5%). Using silage made from a mixture of non—traditional legume crops as fodder galega and awnless brome instead of silage from a mixture of alfalfa and awnless brome provides higher milk productivity of animals and more milk protein and sugar by 9.9 and 5.3%, respectively, due to a balanced ratio of energy, protein and fractions of structural carbohydrates.

В связи с актуальностью снижения уровня концентратов в рационах коров и их замены эффективными дешевыми добавками, нами изучено использование винассы — побочного продукта производства дрожжей — в рационах лактирующих коров голштинской породы. Опыт проведен на 2 группах животных, по 25 голов в каждой, в течение 90 суток. При замене винассой по энергетической питательности 10% концентрированного корма в суточном рационе высокопродуктивных коров в конце раздоя — начале стабилизации лактации среднесуточный удой особей из опытной группы был выше на 7,17% по сравнению с контролем. При этом стоимость рациона оказалась ниже на 7,33%, а стоимость кормов, израсходованных на 1 кг молока, — ниже на 15,59%, что является основанием для включения винассы в рацион высокоудойных коров.
We conducted a study on the use of vinasse, a by-product of yeast production, in the diets of lactating Holstein cows. The experiment involved two groups of 25 cows each and lasted for 90 days. The results showed that replacing 10% of concentrated feed with vinasse in the daily ration of highly productive cows during the end of milking and the beginning of lactation stabilization phase led to a 7.17% increase in average daily milk yield compared to the control group. Additionally, the cost of the ration was 7.33% lower, and the cost of feed consumed per 1 kg of milk was 15.59% lower. These findings indicate the potential for the use of vinasse as a cost-effective feed additive for lactating cows.
