Published: October 2024

BackgroundDepression seriously affects the quality of life of breast cancer patients and even hinders treatment and recovery after diagnosis. Subthreshold depression should be worthy of attention, and the risk of subthreshold depression developing into depression increases if timely intervention is not available. However, there is limited research on interventions for subthreshold depression, especially for newly diagnosed breast cancer patients.ObjectiveExploring the efficacy of a PERMA-based positive psychological intervention programme in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with subthreshold depression.MethodsUsing PERMA as a framework, we constructed the intervention programme through a literature review and expert discussion approach, and revised the programme using the Delphi method. Then we selected 84 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients for a randomised controlled trial. The control group received conventional care (primary care, specialist care, psychological care, etc.), and the observation group received a PERMA-based positive psychological intervention programme. Patient data were collected before and after the intervention, and the dataset consisted of patient responses to general information, the Depression Screening Scale (CES-D), the Hamilton Depression Inventory (HAMD-17), and the Questionnaire on Psychosocial Adjustment in Breast Cancer Patients.ResultsA total of 79 patients completed the study (38 patients in the observation group and 41 patients in the control group), and before the intervention, there were no statistical differences in the comparison of general information, subthreshold depression scores, and psychosocial adaptation scores between the two groups (p &gt; 0.05). After the intervention, the subthreshold depression (CES-D and HAMD-17 scores) scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (p &lt; 0.01), and the psychosocial adaptation scores were significantly higher than those of the control group (p &lt; 0.01).ConclusionA positive psychological intervention programme using PERMA as a framework was more effective in reducing subthreshold depression levels and promoting levels of psychosocial adjustment in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients.Implications for practiceInterventions for subthreshold depression are not limited to the traditional aftercare model, but rather from a positive psychology perspective. Especially for patients newly diagnosed with breast cancer, this is a new endeavour that has important implications for them. Because, instead of focusing on their negative emotions, we help them gradually adapt to their new identity and treatment process from a positive aspect during their most difficult period, thus reducing their subthreshold depression level and preventing it from developing into a more severe depression.

BackgroundHealthcare workers often encounter inadequate sleep conditions. However, limited research has examined the underlying sleep patterns among healthcare workers. This study aimed to identify sleep patterns in healthcare workers, explore predictors associated with various sleep patterns, and investigate the relationship between sleep patterns and psychiatric symptoms.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted in Shenzhen, China, from April 2023 to June 2023. In total, data from 1,292 participants were included using a convenience sampling method. A latent profile analysis was conducted to identify sleep patterns based on the seven dimensions of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Multinomial logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the influence of socio-demographic variables on each profile. A one-way ANOVA test was employed to examine the relationships between sleep patterns and psychiatric symptoms.ResultsThree distinct profiles were identified: good sleepers (63.9%), inefficient sleepers (30.3%), and poor sleepers (5.7%). Multinomial logistic regression analysis indicated that gender and marital status were predictors of various sleep patterns. The ANOVA revealed significant differences in psychiatric symptoms scores among the three sleep patterns; poor sleepers exhibited the highest levels of mental distress.ConclusionThis study identified three distinct sleep patterns in healthcare workers and their significant associations with psychiatric symptoms. These findings contribute to the development of targeted intervention strategies aimed at improving sleep and reducing psychiatric symptoms among healthcare workers.

Published: October 2024

BackgroundThis study investigated the prevalence, correlates, and comorbidities of Internet Gaming Disorder and problematic game use among the general population in Korea.MethodsThe data of 2,764 individuals aged 18 to 49 years who participated in the National Mental Health Survey of Korea 2021 were analyzed. The diagnostic assessments were based on the Structured Clinical Interview for Internet Gaming Disorder and the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. The Game Overuse Screening Questionnaire assessed problematic game use. Multiple logistic regression analyses were performed, and a complex sampling design analysis was applied.ResultsThe 12-month prevalence rate of Internet gaming disorder (IGD) was 0.8% and the 1-month prevalence rate of problematic game use was 8.4%. IGD was higher in men, younger people, unemployed, and in those with low physical activity, dissatisfaction with their quality of life, and who perceived more loneliness and social isolation. While both alcohol use disorder (AUD) and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) were significantly associated with IGD, only ADHD was significantly associated with problematic game use.ConclusionIGD and problematic game use are relatively prevalent in the Korean adult population and are comorbid with AUD and ADHD. Therefore, a preventive strategy for IGD and problematic game use is needed for game users who are more likely to be addicted, such as younger male users. In addition, mental health screening and appropriate treatment for both game addiction and comorbid psychiatric disorders should be provided to individuals with IGD and problematic game use.

Published: October 2024

BackgroundRefugees and migrants may represent the most vulnerable communities in many societies. Health systems should be sensitive to needs of refugees and migrants. The document “The Refugee and Migrant Health: Global Competency Standards for Health Workers (the Standards)” identifies the competencies and areas of practice of health workers working with refugees and migrants. The aim of this study is to provide an analysis of these competences and training needs, identifying the educational priorities for the implementation of the Standards in Sicily, Italy.MethodsA cross-sectional analytical pilot study was conducted by administering a questionnaire, in electronic format “Google Form ®,” to doctors attending the Medical Training Course for General Practitioners in Sicily (Italy). Data obtained were collected in a Microsoft Excel database and analyzed with IBM SPSS Software 24 version. Absolute and relative frequencies were calculated for relevant categorical variables. Univariate analysis of the selected variables was subsequently carried out. The significance level chosen was a p value &lt;0.05 (two-tailed).ResultsA total of 192 General Practitioner (GP) trainees responded to the questionnaire. They were asked if their training course comprised a Global Health Course that included the topic of health protection and social and health care for migrant populations and the 65.4% of them answered “No” or “Do not Know.” GP trainees were also asked if they considered useful to include a Global Health Course dedicated to the management of patients with a migratory background within the training course in general medicine. Of the total 192 participants, 81.9% answered “Yes.” Overall, in a simple regression model, the perception of having addressed migrants’ health needs is positively correlated with having attended a Global Health Course (OR = 3.34 95%CI 1.2–9.1; p = 0.018).ConclusionThis study identified educational priorities for the implementation of the Standards in Sicily for doctors attending the Medical Training Course for General Practitioners. We hope that the results of this study will guide and inform possible future projects to implement the Standards at a national level.

IntroductionIn the current digital age, the proliferation of misinformation presents a formidable challenge to a democratic society. False narratives surrounding vaccination efforts pose a significant public health risk. Understanding the role of cognitive biases in susceptibility to misinformation is crucial in addressing this challenge. Confirmation bias, characterized by the tendency to favor information that aligns with pre-existing beliefs or attitudes, can exacerbate the spread of false narratives.MethodsThis study investigates the effect of confirmation bias awareness on susceptibility to general misinformation. For this, a sample of 1,479 participants was recruited, ensuring diverse representation across attitudes towards vaccination. Half of the participants received targeted information about confirmation bias, aimed at increasing awareness of this bias and its potential impact on cognitive processing of information. The other half did not receive this information.ResultsResults from the study indicated that participants exposed to an intervention aimed at inducing awareness of confirmation bias demonstrated reduced susceptibility to misinformation and increased ability to general discernment of veracity. Notably, these effects were only pronounced among individuals who initially were most negative towards COVID-19 vaccines.DiscussionThese insights provide a foundation for developing targeted strategies to promote informed decision-making and mitigate the spread of misinformation, particularly in the context of public health crises. Further research is warranted to explore the underlying mechanisms driving these effects and to refine intervention approaches for diverse populations and contexts.

ObjectiveWith the emergence of the COVID-19 virus, there was a widespread infection rate among college campuses, creating a need to understand the impact of COVID-19 infection on the health and wellbeing of adolescents. The aim of this study was to examine COVID-19 incidence and cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) among undergraduate students in the 2 years post-COVID-19 pandemic lock-down.ParticipantsParticipants (n = 151) included undergraduate college freshmen students during the 2021–2022 and 2022–2023 academic years.MethodsA series of annual surveys (n = 151) and laboratory measures among a sub-sample of participants (n = 28) were conducted to assess COVID-19 incidence, CRF, anthropometrics, and physical activity (PA).ResultsOver half of participants self-reported COVID-19 infection (59%), “good” or better CRF, a healthy body mass index (BMI), and 25% met PA recommendations. Nearly a quarter, (24%) perceived a negative impact of COVID-19 on their CRF and although not statistically significant, participants who contracted COVID-19 had 46% lower odds of having a positive perception of CRF than those who did not contract COVID-19 before. However, students who were more physically active were more likely to perceive a negative impact of COVID-19 incidence on their CRF (p = 0.035).ConclusionAlthough no relationship was detected between COVID-19 and CRF, those who perceived a negative impact of COVID-19 on their CRF reported engaging in more physical activity.

Authors: Hong Jiana , Mao Xiaodan 
Published: October 2024

BackgroundTunneled peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) have potential to reduce complications compared to non-tunneled PICC in previous studies. Which is better is debatable. Thus, the aim to compare the effect of tunneled and non-tunneled PICC for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.MethodsEmbase, PubMed, Cochrane Library database, and CNKI were searched from inception to March 15, 2024. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) was calculated to assess the complications of tunneled and non-tunneled PICC for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy using random- or fixed-effects models.ResultsA total of 12 articles were retrieved. Meta-analysis showed that tunneled PICC significantly decreased the risk of wound oozing (OR: 0.29, 95% CI: 0.20–0.41), infection risk (OR: 0.41, 95% CI: 0.20–0.85), thrombosis risk (OR: 0.26, 95% CI: 0.15–0.44), phlebitis risk (OR: 0.23, 95% CI: 0.13–0.40), and catheter dislodgement risk (OR: 0.33, 95% CI: 0.22–0.50) compared to non-tunneled PICC.ConclusionsThe subcutaneous tunneling technology has advantages over normal technique in decreasing PICC-related complications for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.Systematic Review RegistrationPROSPERO (CRD42024522862).
Uptake, Efflux, and Sequestration of Mercury in the Asian Clam, Corbicula fluminea, at Environmentally Relevant Concentrations, and the Implications for Mercury Remediation
Authors: Geeza Thomas Jeremy , Stevenson Louise Mote , Mathews Teresa Joan 
Published: October 2024

(1) Mercury (Hg) is a persistent, ubiquitous contaminant that readily biomagnifies into higher trophic level species in aquatic environments across the globe. It is crucial to understand the movement of environmentally relevant concentrations of Hg in impacted freshwater streams to minimize risks to ecological and human health. (2) The bioconcentration kinetics of aqueous Hg exposure (20, 100, and 200 ng/L) in the invasive Asian Clam, Corbicula fluminea, were measured. A toxicokinetic model, the first parameterized for Hg accumulation in freshwater clams, was developed to estimate uptake and efflux parameters and compared to previous parameter values estimated for other mollusk species. (3) Results demonstrated that even at low Hg concentrations, Corbicula record signals of contamination through bioconcentration, and both direct measurement and toxicokinetic models demonstrate large Hg bioconcentration factors (as high as 1.34 × 105 mL/g dry tissue), similar to partitioning coefficients seen in engineered Hg sorbents. (4) Our study found that Corbicula accumulated Hg at aqueous concentrations relevant to impacted streams, but well below regulatory drinking water limits, demonstrating their utility as a sensitive sentinel species and potential bioremediator.
