Developing a tool to measure ‘magnetism’ in Australian nursing environments
Authors: Joyce Joanne , Patrick  
Published: June 2024

This paper describes the development of an Australia‑specific instrument that provides a valid and reliable measure of magnet features in Australian health facilities and is a key development in theongoing application of the magnet concept in Australia.
The magnet hospital concept, developed in the United States of America (USA) in the early eighties, identified characteristics successful in attracting and retaining nursing staff. The nursing profession in Australia is currently focused on issues of recruitment and retention; therefore it is relevant and timely to consider the significance of the magnet concept to Australian health facilities.
The project was undertaken in two stages: one using focus groups to revise the tool for use in Australia; and a second, using a questionnaire to test the reliability, validity and usability, of this revised tool, in a sample of Australian hospitals.
The focus groups identified three main issues requiring modification to the existing tool namely: language; contextual meaning; and, presentation. The data from the questionnaire shows that the analysis of the Australian version of the magnet measurement tool retained acceptable levels of internal consistency.
The results of the pilot indicate that respondents were clearly positive in their responses related to the three subscales of: ‘quality of care’; ‘management, leader and support’; and ‘nurse‑physician relationships’;while ‘nurse participation’ and ‘staff and resources’ subscales were rated less positively by the respondents.
This means the tool is appropriate to use in an Australian context and is able to produce specific and reliable data on magnet features in Australian health facilities. The significance of this research is that itinforms the promotion of organisational change that has been shown to facilitate nursing staff retention and positive health outcomes in Australia.
The changing role of practice nurses in Australia: an action research study
Authors: Mills Jane , Fit Mary 
Published: June 2024

Objective: The original aim of the study was to report on the methods used to develop a new model of service delivery, namely nurse led well women’s clinics. However participants identified several key barriers to an expansion of their role that had not been accounted for in either the original policy directive or in the continuing professional development delivered as preparation for their accreditation to deliver cervical screening services from a general medical practice. How the group addressed these barriers became the objective of this action research study.
Design: This paper reports the findings from an action research study with three registered nurses working in general practice credentialed to provide cervical screening services. Six reflective group meetings were held over a six‑month time frame facilitated by the lead researcher. During the meetings a variety of creative techniques were used to stimulate discussion, The meetings were audio-recorded and partially transcribed. Feedback from the concurrent data generation and analysis was provided to participants the following week.
Setting: A regional division of general practice.
Subjects: Three registered nurses employed by the general medical practice.
Main outcome measures: The barriers identified by participants in the process of implementing change in their clinical practice to incorporate the provision of cervical screening services.
Results: There were three themes identified in the findings from this study that related to the myth of interdisciplinary collaboration in general practice. These were: nurses in general practice renegotiating their roles; identifying and negotiating gendered patterns of cervical screening; and multidisciplinary collaboration and retention of practice nurses. Another important outcome of this study that relates to change management is the role of practice champions in implementing new models of primary care.
Conclusion: The potential role of nurses in general medical practice in Australia has broadened considerably in recent years, mainly due to Australian Government driven initiatives which reward general practitioners for employing nurses; a recognition by the nursing profession that general practice nursing is a specialist area of nursing practice; the establishment of a national professional association for nurses working in general practice; an increase in the availability of continuing professional development for nurses working in general practice; and additional Medicare Benefit Schedule (MBS) item numbers relating to general practice nursing, which gives the general practice a rebate for the services the nurse provides independently of the general practitioner. Suggestions are made that address the barriers identified by participants in the process of implementing change in their clinical practice to incorporate the provision of cervical screening services.

Authors: Erci Behice , Sezgin Serap , Kaçmaz Zennure 
Published: June 2024

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of Peplau’s Interpersonal Relations Model on preoperative and postoperative patient anxiety.
Design: The study used a randomised clinical trial design.
Setting: The sample of this study consisted of 120 patients who attended the surgery clinic at Atatürk University Hospital in Erzurum, Turkey between 1 June and 30 October 2004.
Subjects: The patients were randomly assigned to the study group (n=60) and the control group (n=60).
Interventions: Peplau’s Interpersonal Relations Model intervention was implemented with the study group.
Main Outcome Measure: The effectiveness of Peplau’s Interpersonal Relations Model intervention with preoperative and postoperative patient’s level of anxiety.
Results: The level anxiety of patients in the study group decreased considerably preoperatively. There was a statistically significant difference between the study group and the control group in terms of the mean anxiety score postoperatively and before discharge from the hospital.
Conclusion: The researchers concluded that decreased patient anxiety was likely to be associated with intervention based on Peplau’s Interpersonal Relations Model. Peplau’s model can be recommended as an intervention for nurses to improve patient care by decreasing anxiety in the preoperative and postoperative period.
Reasons for entering and leaving nursing: an Australian regional study
Authors: Eley Robert , Eley Diann , Rogers-Clark Cath 
Published: June 2024

Objective: To compare and contrast the reasons that nurses and nursing students provide for entering and leaving nursing.
Design: A quantitative cross‑sectional cohort design with online survey.
Setting: Regional public health service district and regional university nursing school.
Subjects: Nurses (n= 272) and nursing students (n=259).
Main outcome measures: Demographics of nurses and nursing students including age, sex and length of time as a nurse, and reasons for entering and leaving the profession.
Results: Among the nurses 88.4% were female and 37% 50 years of age or older. Almost half (45.3%) of the nursing students were 30 years of age or older and 44.1% of all students were working as nursing assistants or enrolled nurses whilst studying. Of these working students 32.5% had been nursing in excess of five years. Self interest, vocation and altruism were identified by both students and nurses as the main reasons for entering nursing. Respondents above and below 30 years of age gave the same reasons for entering nursing. Choice of factors for considering leaving nursing differed between groups and ages. Compared to students, nurses were most likely to cite disillusionment with nursing. Students under 30 years of age indicated pursuit of another career and starting a family to be the major factors while older students offered disillusionment with nursing and health concerns.
Conclusions: Retention strategies may need to differ for the age of nurse. However, recruitment needs to be informed by the altruistic and vocational reasons why nurses and nursing students are drawn to nursing rather than focussing on perceived generational differences.
Graduate nurses’ experience of feedback, support and anxiety: a pilot study
Authors: Gardiner Isabelle , Sheen Jade 
Published: June 2024

Objective: The aims of this study were to investigate the association between feedback and anxiety, while also exploring the feedback and support experiences of graduate nurses.
Design: This study used a mixed methods approach.
Setting: Participants completed an online survey.
Subjects: The study included 107 Australian graduate nurses.
Main outcome measures: Anxiety and feedback.
Results: Using bivariate regression a negative relationship was identified between feedback and anxiety. Further analysis using one-way analysis of variance revealed that participants who received regular and quality feedback and support reported the lowest anxiety. The second aim was assessed by reviewing participants’ subjective comments regarding their experiences as graduate nurses. Results revealed high variability in feedback and support experiences. The data gathered suggests graduate nurses experience anxiety during their transition from university to professional nursing.
Conclusion: The provision of regular feedback and support was associated with reduced anxiety in graduate nurses. Thesepreliminary findings highlight the importance of regular and appropriate feedback and support to facilitate learning,successful role transition and improved patient outcomes.
Perceived barriers and enablers to conducting nursing assessments in residential aged care facilities in Victoria, Australia
Authors: Bauer Michael , Fetherstonhaugh Deirdre , Winbolt Margaret 
Published: June 2024

Objective: Nurses working in aged care facilities need to be adequately prepared to manage the increasingly complex care needs of older people. This paper reports on the views of nurses on the barriers and enablers to conducting nursing assessments with older people in residential aged care, six weeks after attending a four day education and training workshop on this topic.
Design: Descriptive evaluation.
Setting: Data were collected in a range of venues in which the education was delivered.
Subjects: Registered (RNs) and enrolled (ENs) nurses (n= 345) working in residential aged care facilities in Victoria, Australia.
Findings: Fourteen barriers and eight enablers, which affect the capacity of nurses to conduct assessments with older people, were identified. The most common cited barriers included lack of time (78%), residents’ poor state of health (41%) and the absence of equipment (33%). Common enablers were organisational support (38%); staff education and training (29%); having the appropriate equipment (22%); positive staff attitudes (17%) and the resident’s condition and cooperation (16%).
Conclusion: Nursing assessments are vital to the delivery of quality and evidence based aged care. The issues identified provide aged care services and managers with a basis for ensuring that nurses have the necessary preparation, training and ongoing support to perform the appropriate and required assessments to provide the best possible care.
Mapping global research trends: Nutrition associations with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease - a Scopus bibliometric analysis
Authors: Shakhshir Muna , Zyoud Sa'ed H 
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND
Several bibliometric analyses have been carried out to identify research hotspots and trends in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) research. Nonetheless, there are still significant knowledge gaps that must be filled to advance our understanding of and ability to treat NAFLD.
AIM
To evaluate, through bibliometric and visual analysis, the current status of related research, related research frontiers, and the developmental trends in the field of diet and NAFLD.
METHODS
We retrieved publications about diet and NAFLD published between 1987 and 2022 from Scopus. Next, we used VOSviewer 1.6.20 to perform bibliometric analysis and visualization.
RESULTS
We found a total of 1905 studies, including 1637 (85.93%) original articles and 195 (10.24%) reviews, focused on the examination of NAFLD and its correlation with diet that were published between 1987 and 2022. Among the remaining five types of documents, 38 were letters, notes, editorials, meeting minutes, or brief surveys, representing 1.99% of the total documents. The countries with the most publications on this topic were China (n = 539; 28.29%), followed by the United States (n = 379; 19.90%), Japan (n = 133; 6.98%), and South Korea (n = 127; 6.6%). According to the citation analysis, the retrieved papers were cited an average of 32.3 times and had an h -index of 106, with 61014 total citations. The two main clusters on the map included those related to: (1) Inflammation and oxidative stress; and (2) Dietary interventions for NAFLD.
CONCLUSION
This was the first study to use data taken from Scopus to visualize network mapping in a novel bibliometric analysis of studies focused on diet and NAFLD. After 2017, the two domains that received the most attention were “dietary interventions for NAFL”’ and “‘inflammation and oxidative stress implicated in NAFLD and its correlation with diet.” We believe that this study provides important information for academics, dietitians, and doctors, and that additional research on dietary interventions and NAFLD is warranted.

Tyrimo tikslas. Vertinti COVID-19 pandemijos laikotarpiu gimdžiusių moterų potrauminio streso simptomų raišką bei atskleisti jų gimdymo patirtį. Tyrimo metodai. 2021 m. sausio–liepos mėn. atliktas vienmomentinis aprašomasis tyrimas. Į tyrimą buvo kviečiamos gyvą naujagimį pagimdžiusios pilnametės moterys, kurioms po gimdymo buvo praėję 1–12 mėn. Taikyta mišri tiriamųjų imties atranka. Kvietimai dalyvauti apklausoje

buvo išplatinti pagimdžiusias moteris vienijančiose „Facebook“ grupėse, Kauno klinikose ir LSMU Kauno ligoninės filiale P. Mažylio gimdymo namuose. Tyrime dalyvavo 753 moterys. Potrauminio streso simptomams vertinti naudota Sičio gimdymo traumų skalė, taip pat buvo pateikiami sociodemografiniai ir su gimdymu susiję klausimai. Tiriamosios turėjo galimybę atsakyti ir į atviro tipo klausimą apie COVID-19 pandemijos poveikį jų gimdymo patirčiai. Į šį klausimą savo nuomonę pateikė 381 moteris. Potrauminio streso simptomų skirtumai pagal sociodemografinius ir su gimdymu susijusius rodiklius buvo analizuojami naudojant Mano-Vitnio ir Kruskalio-Voliso testus. Ryšys tarp su gimdymu susijusių potrauminio streso simptomų ir santykio su sveikatos priežiūros specialistais bei vyru arba partneriu vertintas naudojant Spirmeno koreliacijos koeficientą. Kokybinių tyrimo duomenų analizei taikytas induktyviosios turinio analizės metodas. Rezultatai. Kiek daugiau nei ketvirtadalis moterų gimdymo metu jautė pavojų savo arba savo vaiko sveikatai ar gyvybei. Kiek daugiau nei du trečdaliai moterų po gimdymo jautė pasikartojančius neigiamos patirties išgyvenimus; beveik ketvirtadalis vengė su gimdymu susijusių prisiminimų. Kiek mažiau nei du trečdaliai jautė neigiamus su gimdymu susijusius jausmus, kaltino save ir aplinką dėl įvykių gimdymo metu, nesidomėjo veiklomis. Kiek daugiau nei pusė respondenčių per pastarąją savaitę jautėsi susijaudinusios. Beveik pusė tiriamųjų, patyrusių bent vieną iš potrauminio streso simptomų, jautė distresą ir neigiamą simptomų poveikį kasdieniam gyvenimui. Visus potrauminio streso sindromo diagnostikos kriterijus atitiko 7,97 proc. moterų. Geresnis santykis gimdymo metu su sveikatos priežiūros specialistų komanda ir vyru arba partneriu buvo susijęs su mažesniu potrauminio streso simptomų skaičiumi. Moterų gimdymo patirtis per COVID-19 pandemiją apibūdinta trimis temomis: socialinė izoliacija ir atskirtis; fizinė savijauta ir psichologinė būsena; bendravimas su sveikatos priežiūros specialistais. Išvada. Maždaug trys ketvirtadaliai COVID-19 pandemijos laikotarpiu gimdžiusių tiriamųjų per pastarąją savaitę nors kartą jautė bent vieną su gimdymu susijusį potrauminio streso simptomą ir apie keturi penktadaliai nors kartą per paskutinę savaitę jautė bent vieną bendrą potrauminio streso simptomą. Moterų gimdymo patirtis per COVID-19 pandemiją pasižymėjo atskirties jausmu, blogesne savijauta ir sveikatos priežiūros specialistų etinio bendravimo stygiumi.
Propiedades Volumétricas y de Transporte para Mezclas de Α-Pineno + Queroseno
Authors: Romero Leyva Dorothy Saraí , Alejandro Hernández Sarai , Guerrero Zárate David 
Published: June 2024

La búsqueda de alternativas para rediucir las emisiones de gases efecto invernadero debido al uso de combustibles fósiles ha llevado a probar diversas moléculas de alta densidad energética, como los terpenos. Una de las sustancias que conforma esta familia es el α-pineno, que ha sido probado como aditivo en los combustibles tradicionales o materia prima en la síntesis de biocombustibles. Se prepararon mezclas de α-pineno con queroseno en todo el intervalo de composiciones; se midió la densidad y la viscosidad cinemática a temperaturas entre 293.15 K y 353.15 K a presión atmosférica, así como el poder calorífico. Se encontró que la densidad y viscosidad disminuyen cuando la temperatura se incrementa; se determinó la expansividad volumétrica para la mezcla, encontrando que es independiente de la composición y la temepratura, con un valor de K-1. Se obtuvieron modelos semiempíricos que permiten estimar la densidad, la viscosidad y el poder calorífico con un error cuadrático promedio de 0.001 g∙cm-3, 0.0032 mPa∙s y 0.07 kJ∙g-1, respectivamente.
A Candidate Period of 4.605 Days for FRB 20121102A and One Possible Implication of Its Origin
Authors: Li Jixuan , Gao Yang , Li Di , Wu Kinwah 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
A firm establishment of the presence or the lack of periodicity in repeating fast radio bursts is crucial for determining their origins. Here, we compile 1145 radio bursts of FRB 20121102A with fluence larger than 0.15 Jy ms from observations using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope, the Arecibo Observatory, the Green Bank Telescope, the Effelsberg Telescope, the MeerKAT Telescope, the Lovell Telescope, the Deep Space Network 70 m radio telescopes, the Very Large Array, and the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope, spanning the time interval of MJD 57175−58776. A quasi-period of

days are found through the phase-folding probability binomial analysis. The former is consistent with previous findings and the latter is new. The 4.605 day periodicity is more obvious in high-energy bursts with fluence larger than 1 × 1038 erg. The presence of these (candidate) quasi-periods, together with the corresponding width of burst accumulation in the phase space, are consistent with the bursts originating from a binary degenerate star system with a close-by planet around the primary neutron star.
Radio Images inside Highly Magnetized Jet Funnels Based on Semianalytic GRMHD Models
Authors: Ogihara Taiki , Kawashima Tomohisa , Ohsuga Ken 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
By performing general-relativistic radiative transfer calculations, we show the radio images of relativistic jets including highly magnetized regions inside jet funnels, based on steady, axisymmetric, and semianalytic general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics models. It is found that multiple ring images appear at the photon frequency of 230 GHz for nearly pole-on observers, because of the strong light-bending effect on photons generated at the separation surface, which is the boundary between the inflow and outflow flows in the jet funnel. A bright teardrop-shaped component, which extends from the bright rings of the separation surface, also appears in the counterjet region. The diameter of the brightest outermost ring originated from the counterjet is ∼60 μas, which is consistent with the ringlike images of M87 at 86 GHz observed with GMVA, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, and the Greenland Telescope, whose ring diameter is

. The thinner and smaller-diameter rings are exhibited when the black hole spin magnitude is higher. These morphological features are expected to appear without being prominently affected by the detailed magnetohydrodynamic plasma parameters of our general-relativistic ideal magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) jet model, since the location of the separation surface is mainly regulated by the black hole spin. Our GRMHD model and the emission features of the images in the horizon-scale, highly magnetized jet funnel may be tested by future observations, e.g., the next-generation Event Horizon Telescope and the Black Hole Explorer.
The Origin of Young Stellar Populations in NGC 1783: Accretion of External Stars
Authors: Wang 王 Li 莉 , Deng 邓 Licai 李才 , Pang 庞 Xiaoying 晓莹 , Wang 王 Long 龙 , de Grijs Richard , Milone Antonino P. , Li 李 Chengyuan 程远 
Published: June 2024

Abstract
The presence of young stellar populations in the Large Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC 1783 has caught significant attention, with suggestions ranging from it being a genuine secondary stellar generation to a population of blue straggler stars or simply contamination from background stars. Thanks to multiepoch observations with the Hubble Space Telescope, proper motions for stars within the field of NGC 1783 have been derived, thus allowing accurate cluster membership determination. Here, we report that the younger stars within NGC 1783 indeed belong to the cluster and their spatial distribution is more extended compared to the bulk of the older stellar population, consistent with previous studies. Through N-body simulations, we demonstrate that the observed characteristics of the younger stars cannot be explained solely by blue straggler stars in the context of the isolated dynamical evolution of NGC 1783. Instead, accretion of the external, low-mass stellar system can better account for both the inverse spatial concentration and the radial velocity isotropy of the younger stars. We propose that NGC 1783 may have accreted external stars from low-mass stellar systems, resulting in a mixture of external younger stars and blue straggler stars from the older bulk population, thereby accounting for the characteristics of the younger sequence.
