title: Lived experiences of Thai patients with end-stage renal disease receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis

description: The purpose of this study was to discover the lived experiences of Thai patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) receiving continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). In this study, the research design was used hermeneutic phenomenology. The participants were 28 Thai patients with ESRD receiving CAPD in Sakhon Nakhon Province. The purposive sampling technique was used in this study. The inclusion criteria for the participants allowed enrollment for patients who had been receiving CAPD for at least six months, were aged 39-69 years old, outpatient status at a CAPD clinic at Sakon Nakhon Hospital, Sawang Dandin Crown Prince Hospital or Wanon Niwat Hospital, voluntary agreement to participate, signing of informed consent forms, and ability to communicate in Thai. In-depth semi-structured interviews were used to collect data from November 2019 to April 2020. The process of data analysis and interpretation of the data used Van Manen’s approach (2014). The trustworthiness of this study was employed the criteria of Lincoln and Guba (1985). The results obtained from this study reveal the lived experiences of Thai patients with ESRD receiving CAPD as reflected within Van Manen’s five lived worlds (2014) as follows: 1) Lived Body: Home as the best hospital ; 2) Lived Body: New normal and feeling of emotional suffering; 3) Lived Time: Time to make restitution for actions and spending the most time on treatment; 4) Lived Relation: Having difficulty communicating treatment plans with health care providers, receiving family encouragement and care, having a sense of closeness to friends and relying on Dharma; and 5) Lived Things: CAPD is an extension of life method. The results of this study may contribute to nursing practice, particularly for nurses in both hospital and home-care settings. More insights into how patients experience and feel about being on CAPD can enable nurses to adopt a more sensitive and caring approach to handling these patients, particularly when identifying patients' needs.

title: The lived experiences of having a legal abortion among adolescent girls in Thailand

description: The purpose of this study was to explore the lived experiences of having a legal abortion among adolescent girls in Thailand. Hermeneutic phenomenology was the research design. The participants were 30 Thai adolescent girls who had a legal abortion. Purposive sampling and snowball sampling were used with the following criteria: adolescents aged 15 to 19 who had a legal abortion; pregnancy termination from the Referral System for Safe Abortion (RSA) network clinics in a province of Thailand; Thai language communication skills; and willingness to participate in taped interview session. In-depth interviews and non-participatory observation were used to collect data from December 2019 to July 2020. This study used thematic analysis and confirmed trustworthiness by data triangulation, member checking and debriefing. The findings revealed that four issues were involved in the lived experiences of having a legal abortion among the participants. The first was the meaning of legal abortion from the adolescent view point: safety withal sinfulness (safe and suffering relief, stigma in my life, and life learning). The second involved the effects of legal abortion on the adolescent girl’s life: Medical Abortion under GA ≤ 20 weeks’ safety all (twenty-seven healthy adolescents, a complication of a retained placenta, and couple of adolescent girls having drug side effects). The third involved the practices of legal abortion among adolescent girls: difficulties in accessing legal abortion services (hard to tell someone, what is the best choice?, and how to have an abortion?). The four and final issue involved the needs of adolescent girls for a legal abortion service: good care and confidentiality (good health care services, good nursing care, and keeping the secret). This new knowledge can help health care providers to gain better understanding about the lived experiences involved in having a legal abortion among adolescent girls in the Thai context and improve the quality of services to meet their needs. Such data can be used as baseline data for further research, such as the factors associated with safe and legal abortion care, the development of programs and policies to enhance the quality of safe and legal abortion services.

title: Effects of a continuity of care program for parents with preterm infants on parental performances, parental readiness, and service utilization rates post discharge

description: This study tested the effects of a continuity of care for parents with preterm infants (CCPI) on parental performances, parental readiness and service utilization rates post discharge. A mixed-method research with concurrent triangulation design was done with an original CCPI program based on continuity of care and transition theory. Samples included 90 dyads of parents with preterm infants, randomly assigned by blocked randomization. The CCPI program effect was evaluated by the mean scores of the parental performances, the parental readiness, and the service utilization rates post discharge. The study suggests that the parents receiving the CCPI had significantly higher performances as well as higher readiness for hospital discharge than those parents of the control group (p&lt; 0.01). In addition, the service utilization rates for samples significantly decreased (p&lt; 0.01) at the fourth week after discharge, However, there was no significant difference between first and the second week after discharge. These study findings may help policymakers deploy CCPI programs for parents with preterm infants, while suggesting that CCPI should be used to promote growing preterm infants to significantly reduce post-discharge service utilization rate.

title: Early symptom recognition and symptom management among exacerbation COPD patients: a qualitative study

description: An acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is the most cause of deaths in the patient with COPD illness. It induces COPD patients often end in unexpected or unpredictable death. The purposes of this study were to explore the lived experiences of symptom recognition and to explain the pattern of symptom management successfully among exacerbation COPD patients. A Heideggerian hermeneutic phenomenology approach was used as the method to gain an understanding of living with AECOPD. The data were collected until saturation principles in 20 participants by using the semi-structured interview to capture breadth and depth detailed experiences verbatim. Data analysis proceeded based on a seven-stage hermeneutical process (Diekelmann et al, 1989). The results showed that two constitutive patterns with relational themes were identified. The first pattern, symptom recognition, consisted of four themes: meaning of AECOPD, pattern of AECOPD, warning signs and prodromal symptoms, and risk factors of AECOPD. Most participants described the meaning of AECOPD as acute breathing problem more than baseline by patient self-awareness that result in can’t breathe and can’t control/can’t manage by themselves until lead to the need of additional therapy. All participants described the pattern of AECOPD, recognized warning signs, and prodromal symptoms according to their individual experiences. Hot weather and rainy season were the most common aspects of weather which was a risk factor of AECOPD. The second pattern, symptom management, consisted of four themes: methods of symptom management (during AECOPD state), methods of symptom management (during stable COPD state for helping to prevent AECOPD state), knowledge source of symptom management, and factors influencing symptom recognition and symptom management. During AECOPD state, most participants used sitting and taking quick-relief inhaler to manage exacerbation state, but in the stable COPD state, used exercise, long-acting bronchodilators, and herbs for helping to prevent AECOPD state. Participants received the knowledge of symptom management through self-learning from their previous AECOPD experiences, sitting was the most common participant learning learned by themselves that helped to relieve dyspnea. The doctor recommended about how to use bronchodilators was the most common way participants could learn through others. Patient health behavior, psychological factors, and social support were factors influencing symptom recognition and symptom management. The findings provide that healthcare professionals should care, help, and provide the recommendation about early symptom recognition and symptom management to COPD patients in order to make it through illness with COPD in a period of time during with the patients can learn this knowledge on their own.

title: Development of a readiness for hospital discharge assessment tool for stroke patients accuracy in predicting hospital readmission: a prospective cohort study

description: Objective: A readiness for hospital discharge assessment tool was developed to determine the risk factors predicting readmission and improve accuracy in predicting hospital readmission within thirty days among stroke patients. Method: A prospective cohort study among 348 first-time stroke patients, recruited from neurosurgery wards and stroke units of university hospitals in the central regions of Thailand, between February and September 2020 were followed from discharge until thirty days. Data were gleaned from an extensive literature review and interviews with stroke experts to generate tool component consisting of 23 items. The tool tested for content validity and reliability by content validity index (CVI) and Cronbach’s alpha coefficient (). Interrater reliability of internal consistency was assessed by the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The tool was tested for accuracy to predict hospital readmission within thirty days among stroke patients by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value, with chi-square and logistic regression used to analyze. Results: The readiness for hospital discharge tool. The readiness for hospital discharge composed of: neurological signs, clinical signs and symptoms, and physical function in activity daily living. The content validity index (CVI) .85, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient of the overall scale was .94. Interrater reliability showed the optimal level (ICC = .92). The predictors explained 88.6% of the variance and correctly classified 93.4% of the results. Odds ratio (OR) and confidence interval (CI) of independent risk factors that best predicted readmission within thirty days after hospital discharge for stroke patients were age (OR = 1.024; 95%, CI: 1.006-1.042), comorbidity (OR = 5.036; 95%, CI: 1.376-18.492), dyslipidemia (OR = .600; 95%, CI: .376-.959) and time of illness onset until hospital arrival (OR = 1.742; 95%, CI: 1.082-2.804). The cut point score of readiness for hospital discharge shown by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 13.5, sensitivity was 88.9% and specificity 83.7%, with positive predictive value 90.9% and negative predictive value 80.5%.Logit P (readmission) = +18.462 -.529 (bladder control) -2.313 (bathing) -2.325 (self-feeding) -.979 (mobility) -.481 (dysphagia) -1.673 (visual problem) -1.803 (motor power right leg) -.810 (verbal response) -.610 (level of consciousness) Conclusions: Findings identified the risk factors involved in the readmission of stroke patients in Thailand. The tool was proved valid and reliable in terms of patient readiness for hospital discharge, and accuracy in predicting hospital readmission within thirty days among discharged stroke patients. This tool can be used by healthcare providers to assess discharge conditions for stroke patients with greater accuracy.

title: Predictive factors of subjective well-being in older adults living alone: mixed method approach

description: Background: Subjective well-being is essential for older adults living alone. Older adults living alone with high subjective well-being contribute to physical and mental well-being, which reduces the burden on society and the nation. Objectives: To examine the predictive factors of subjective well-being in older adults living alone and to explore a comprehensive in-depth understanding of subjective well-being in older adults living alone.Method: An explanatory sequential mixed method design was used to investigate the predictive factors of subjective well-being. For the quantitative research, the sample was 198 older adults living alone in metropolitan areas and selected by the multistage random sampling method. The predictors included personal factors and psychosocial factors. The psychometric properties of instruments were verified with acceptable reliability and validity. The researchers analyzed the data obtained from descriptive statistics and hierarchical regression analysis. Then purposive sampling was used to select 14 participants who had high subjective well-being scores for the qualitative research. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data, and content analysis was used to analyze data. Subsequently, connected the qualitative and quantitative findings.Results: Among 198 respondents, majority was female (68.7%) with a mean age of 74 and had been living alone for 16.6±12.77 years. Although most of them were highly independent (59.1%), there was 41.4% of elderly claimed without sufficient income for necessary daily expenses. The results from the quantitative data revealed a sense of coherence (β = 0.34, p&lt; 0.001) as the strongest predictor of subjective well-being among older adults living alone, followed by resilience (β = 0.18, p =0.02), both of which jointly predicted subjective well-being by 31.20% (p&lt; 0.001). The qualitative results explained that a sense of coherence and resilience were strongly related to subjective well-being by causing no overthinking, feeling free from problems, and producing peaceful feelings. In addition, economic status (insufficient income), functional status, social participation, perceived stress, and social support were related to subjective well-being in participants.Conclusion: A sense of coherence and resilience were significant in subjective well-being among older adults living alone. Implementing a program to promote these elements will induce clients’ subjective well-being, particularly females and those who have completed fundamental education. An activity that generates income maintains health status, functional status, social participation, and social support help to promote subjective well-being in older adults living alone would be recommended. However, further research is needed to explore other predicting factors in older adults living alone.

title: Protoarray-ATS_110525

description: <em>ProtoArray® screening.</em> The initial screening was performed using ProtoArray® Human Protein Microarrays v.4.0 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA), which are loaded with 9480 proteins, as described previously (1). A total of 20 serum samples (10 each from HDs and patients with atherosclerosis) were used to select antigenic proteins specifically recognized by serum immunoglobin G (IgG) antibodies. The results were analyzed using Prospector (Thermo Fisher Scientific) software based on M-statistics. When comparing the two groups, a positive cutoff value was calculated for each protein using M-statistics. The percentage of the samples in each group that showed an immune response above the cutoff value was determined and the P-value for the significance of the difference between the two groups was calculated, as previously described (2).

title: Traders in Food Systems are Keystone Actors for Water Stewardship

description: Unaltered biosphere is the main mankind ally in mitigating climate changes. Biosphere stewardship indicates traders, identified as Transnational Corporations (TNCs), as a keystone actor of the global Production Ecosystem and a major driver of the outsized impact on the biosphere. Yet, despite water is the blood of the biosphere, efforts to analyse the role of TNCs in reallocating global water resources have been poor. Capitalizing on the high-resolution data by the Trase initiative and by focusing on the paradigmatic case of the Brazilian soy, we found that major soy traders displace on average twice as much virtual water as top-importing countries- except for China. Bunge virtual water export in 2018 reached 15 Gm<sup>3</sup>, almost twice the export of Thailand (7.8 Gm<sup>3</sup>) and that of Louis Dreyfus more than twice the one of Netherlands (4.6 Gm<sup>3</sup>). Results also show that companies face local water risk through the exposure to drought (30-45% probability of occurrence), which can disrupt along the whole supply-chain. Countries, which have been considered as far the main player to achieve sustainable supply chains, are strongly tied to companies and thus are not able to properly act without joint efforts with traders. In strong analogy with the ocean stewardship we argue that TNCs should be recognized as Keystone Actors for water resources conservation and should cooperate with science, local authorities and communities to assure the integrity of water reserves and the hydrological cycle, global commons of the biosphere.
