Apr 26th 2024, 15:03

Objective: 
This scoping review will aim to map the existing academic literature on simulation-based activities that are designed with and delivered for health professionals in geographically rural and remote contexts in high-income countries.
Introduction: 
Simulation-based health care activities are implemented in health services to increase patient safety because they allow health professionals to prepare, learn, practice, rehearse, and improve clinical performance and teamwork. Simulation-based activities are increasingly being used in rural and remote areas, where resources are limited compared with metropolitan areas.
Inclusion criteria: 
This review will include all primary and peer-reviewed research articles and abstracts that report health simulation methodologies and activities that have been used in rural and remote health care contexts in high-income countries.
Methods: 
The proposed review will follow the JBI guidelines for scoping reviews and the PRISMA-ScR reporting guidelines. Databases to be searched will include Embase, Emcare, and MEDLINE (all searched via Ovid), Scopus, PubMed, and the Cochrane Database. The title and abstracts will be screened independently by 2 reviewers, followed by full-text screening. Data will be extracted and analyzed to address the review questions.
Details of this review can be found in Open Science Framework:

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/meta-analyses-systematic-reviews/wound_healing_properties_of_stryphnodendron-299-aspx/) Wound-healing properties of Stryphnodendron adstringens (barbatimão) in skin and mucosa injuries: a scoping review protocol
Apr 26th 2024, 15:03

Objective: 
This review will map the literature on the types of research and methods used to investigate the wound-healing properties of Stryphnodendron adstringens (barbatimão) in skin and mucosa injuries.
Introduction: 
Barbatimão is a Brazilian native plant and its wound-healing properties have been described in the literature since the colonial period. It is one of the 71 plants included in the Brazilian health system’s national list of medicinal plants of interest. However, existing literature reviews on the subject are limited, not comprehensive, lack a search strategy, and lack peer review.
Inclusion criteria: 
This scoping review will include all types of published and unpublished sources that investigate the wound-healing properties of barbatimão to treat any type of skin or mucosa injury in humans, animals, or in vitro, in any context.
Methods: 
A scoping review will be conducted according to the JBI methodology. The main databases to be searched will include Embase (EBSCOhost), CINAHL (EBSCOhost), Scopus, PubMed (EBSCOhost), ScienceDirect, Lilacs, SciELO, CUIDEN, MOSAICO, Web of Science, Epistemonikos, and Google Scholar. Unpublished studies will also be considered. Two independent reviewers will examine titles and abstracts and select and read full-text sources for possible inclusion. Subsequently, the reviewers will extract and synthesize the data, which will be presented as a map, diagram, or table, according to the review objectives.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/meta-analyses-systematic-reviews/effectiveness_of_silver_diamine_fluoride-300-aspx/) Effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride application with atraumatic restorative treatment in arresting the progression of dental caries: a systematic review protocol
Apr 26th 2024, 15:03

Objective: 
This review aims to evaluate the effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride application along with atraumatic restorative treatment in arresting the progression of dental caries when compared with other caries-arresting treatments in children and adults.
Introduction: 
A combination of silver diamine fluoride with atraumatic restorative treatment is a minimally invasive and cost-effective method to treat dental caries. It offers a solution for the progression of caries and restoration of cavitated lesions in both primary and permanent teeth. A comprehensive summary of the evidence will assist dental clinicians and guide subsequent clinical research.
Inclusion criteria: 
Randomized controlled trials involving human participants of any age with cavitated dental caries lesions will be included. The intervention arm will evaluate the effectiveness of silver diamine fluoride application with atraumatic restorative treatment in dental caries arrest with a control arm of either atraumatic restorative treatment (ART) or silver diamine fluoride (SDF) application; or composite restoration; or sodium fluoride varnish or a placebo; or a study group with no intervention.
Methods: 
Systematic searches for relevant studies will be conducted across multiple databases, including MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane CENTRAL, Dentistry and Oral Sciences Source, CINAHL, and Web of Science. ProQuest Dissertations and Theses and Google Scholar will also be searched for gray literature. The databases will be searched from January 2016 to the present. No restrictions will be imposed on the country of publication. Data appraisal, extraction, and synthesis will follow JBI guidance for systematic reviews of effectiveness. The Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system will be used to grade the certainty of evidence, and a Summary of Findings will be prepared.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/meta-analyses-systematic-reviews/effectiveness_and_family_experiences_of-290-aspx/) Effectiveness and family experiences of interventions promoting partnerships between families and pediatric and neonatal intensive care units: a mixed methods systematic review
Apr 26th 2024, 15:03

Objective: 
The objective of this mixed methods review was to examine the effectiveness and family experiences of interventions promoting partnerships between families and the multidisciplinary health care team in pediatric and neonatal intensive care units.
Introduction: 
Hospitalization of infants and children in neonatal intensive care units and pediatric intensive care units has a significant effect on their families, including increased stress, anxiety, and depression. Available evidence syntheses focused on specific family-centered care, but not on partnership, which is another aspect that may improve the families’ outcomes and experiences.
Inclusion criteria: 
This review focused on effectiveness and experiences of interventions by health professionals in partnership with families of infants or children hospitalized in an intensive care unit. The type of intervention was a partnership between the health care team and the family, and focused on outcomes of stress, anxiety, depression, quality of life, attachment, or satisfaction with family-centered care.
Methods: 
The JBI methodology for convergent segregated mixed methods systematic reviews was followed using the standardized JBI critical appraisal and data extraction tools. Ten databases were searched from January 2000 to April 2022. Findings of quantitative studies were statistically pooled through meta-analyses and those that could not pooled were reported in a narrative format. Qualitative studies were pooled through meta-synthesis.
Results: 
This review included 6 qualitative and 42 quantitative studies. There was mixed methodological quality and all studies were included regardless of methodological quality. Meta-analyses showed positive improvements in anxiety, satisfaction with family-centered care, and stress, yet no conclusive effects in attachment and depression. These results should be interpreted with caution due to high heterogeneity. Qualitative analysis resulted in 2 synthesized findings: “Interventions that incorporate partnerships between families and the health care team can improve the family’s experience and capacity to care for the child” and “Having a child in intensive care can be an experience of significant impact for families” Integration of quantitative and qualitative evidence revealed some congruence between findings; however, the paucity of qualitative evidence minimized the depth of this integration.
Conclusions: 
Partnership interventions can have a positive impact on parents of children in intensive care units, with improvements seen in stress, anxiety, and satisfaction with family-centered care.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/meta-analyses-systematic-reviews/strategies_and_indicators_to_integrate_health-296-aspx/) Strategies and indicators to integrate health equity in health service and delivery systems in high-income countries: a scoping review
Apr 26th 2024, 15:03

Objective: 
The objective of this review was to describe how health service and delivery systems in high-income countries define and operationalize health equity. A secondary objective is to identify implementation strategies and indicators being used to integrate and measure health equity.
Introduction: 
To improve the health of populations, a population health and health equity approach is needed. To date, most work on health equity integration has focused on reducing health inequities within public health, health care delivery, or providers within a health system, but less is known about integration across the health service and delivery system.
Inclusion criteria: 
This review included academic and gray literature sources that described the definitions, frameworks, level of integration, strategies, and indicators that health service and delivery systems in high-income countries have used to describe, integrate, and/or measure health equity. Sources were excluded if they were not available in English (or a translation was not available), were published before 1986, focused on strategies that were not implemented, did not provide health equity indicators, or featured strategies that were implemented outside the health service or delivery systems (eg, community-based strategies).
Methods: 
This review was conducted in accordance with the JBI methodology for scoping reviews. Titles and abstracts were assessed followed by a full-text review. The information extracted consisted of study design and key findings, such as health equity definitions, strategies, frameworks, level of integration, and indicators. Most data have been quantitatively tabulated and presented according to 5 review questions. Some findings (eg, definitions and indicators) were summarized using qualitative methods. Most findings are visually presented in charts and diagrams or presented in tabular format.
Results: 
Following review of 16,297 titles and abstracts and 824 full-text sources, we included 122 sources (113 peer-reviewed, 9 gray literature) in this scoping review. We found that health equity was inconsistently defined and operationalized. Only 17 sources included definitions of health equity and we found that both indicators and strategies were lacking adequate descriptions. The use of health equity frameworks was limited and, where present, there was little consistency or agreement in their use. We found that strategies were often specific to programs, services, or clinics, rather than broadly applied across health service and delivery systems.
Conclusions: 
Our findings suggest that strategies to advance health equity work are siloed within health service and delivery systems and are not currently being implemented system-wide (ie, across all health settings). Healthy equity definitions and frameworks are varied in the included sources, and indicators for health equity are variable and inconsistently measured. Health equity integration needs to be prioritized within and across health service and delivery systems. There is also a need for system-wide strategies to promote health equity, alongside robust accountability mechanisms for measuring health equity. This is necessary to ensure that an integrated, whole-system approach can be consistently applied in health service and delivery systems internationally.

(https://ifp.nyu.edu/2024/journal-article-abstracts/mot0000304/) Personal perspectives on mindsets, motivation, and psychology.
Apr 26th 2024, 14:02

Motivation Science, Vol 10(1), Mar 2024, 1-8; doi:10.1037/mot0000304
Motivation researchers study the forces that drive, select, and direct behavior. As such, we seek to understand how people’s thoughts, feelings, and actions work together as they choose and pursue goals in their world. The author begins by tracing the fortunes of the field of motivation over the course of her career, from its heyday, to its fall from prominence, to its current resurgence. In this context, she traces her own career in motivation, starting with reinforcement learning, moving to attribution theory, continuing with achievement goals, and then focusing on implicit theories or mindsets. Throughout, she and her collaborators have tried to zero in on (and often intervene on) the personal and contextual factors that enhance challenge-seeking, effective persistence, educational achievement, and mental health, as well as the factors that influence interpersonal judgments and stereotyping. More recently, she has developed an integrative theory that identifies motivation as the foundation of personality and its development, and she has collaborated on a neuroscience-based theory that identifies motivation as a key factor in intelligent decision-making. The driving theme throughout her career has been how to harness motivation to promote and fulfill human potential. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

Apr 26th 2024, 13:06

American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®, Ahead of Print. Background: Music therapy (MT) offers benefits of improved symptom relief and quality of life at the end of life, but its impact on hospice patients and caregivers needs more research. Objective: To assess the impact of MT intervention on symptom burden and well-being of hospice patients and caregivers. Methods: A total of 18 hospice patients, selected based on scores ≥4 on the revised Edmonton Symptom Assessment System (ESAS-r) items on pain, depression, anxiety, or well-being, participated in MT sessions provided by a board-certified music therapist. Over a period of 2-3 weeks, 3-4 MT sessions were conducted for each. Patient Quality of life (QOL) was assessed using the Linear Analogue Self-Assessment (LASA). Depression and anxiety were measured with the Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4). For the 7 caregivers enrolled, stress levels were measured using the Pearlin role overload measure and LASA. Results: Patients reported a reduction in symptom severity and emotional distress and an increase in QOL. All patients endorsed satisfaction with music therapy, describing it as particularly beneficial for stress relief, relaxation, spiritual support, emotional support, and well-being. Scores on overall QOL and stress were worse for caregivers. Conclusion: This study provides evidence that MT reduces symptom burden and enhances the quality of life for hospice patients. Hospice patients and their caregivers endorsed satisfaction with MT. Given the benefits observed, integrating MT into hospice care regimens could potentially improve patient and caregiver outcomes. Larger studies should be conducted to better assess the impact of MT in this population.

Apr 26th 2024, 12:12

Autism, Ahead of Print. Autistic children and their caregivers in Argentina often lack access to information, resources and evidence-based interventions. Caregiver empowerment may help support families to uphold their child’s rights and access suitable education and support. This study aimed to examine the perceptions on empowerment of caregivers of autistic children in Argentina. This was a phenomenological, qualitative study. We conducted 32 semi-structured individual interviews remotely. Participants included caregivers, health service providers, non-governmental organisation representatives, special education teachers and policy representatives. Data were analysed thematically. We developed three main themes: Caregiver agency: from intuitive coping strategies to entrepreneurship; ‘I had to cut down on therapy’: Economic instability and inequality affecting service access; and Equipping caregivers to be empowered. Both caregivers and professionals talked about the contribution of socio-economic inequalities to caregivers’ sense of disempowerment. Caregivers identified coping strategies and discussed their experiences with advocacy. They expressed that in-person and online support groups have an empowering effect. Based on participant views, strategies supporting caregiver empowerment may involve: interventions are co-designed by professionals and caregivers; focusing on caregiver mental health; and addressing the profound impact of poverty on the quality of life of families.Lay abstractCaregivers of children with developmental disabilities, including autism, often struggle to access services, information and resources in Argentina. Little is known about how caregivers can be empowered to support their children as they wish to in the Argentinian setting. We spoke with 32 people online to understand existing and potential practices of supporting caregivers. The people we spoke with included caregivers, health service providers, non-governmental organisations’ representatives providing services or technical support, special education teachers and policy representatives. Participants said that poverty, and inequalities in accessing support, impact how caregivers can support their children. They mentioned examples that help caregivers feel empowered, such as peer support groups and caregiver training. Many caregivers spoke about how they became advocates for their children and how they developed initiatives such as advocacy campaigns and well-being support groups. Caregivers in Argentina may be empowered in various ways, and the following strategies can improve empowerment: strengthening collaboration between professionals and caregivers; focusing on caregiver mental health; and addressing the profound impact of poverty on the quality of life of families.

Apr 26th 2024, 12:09

Research on Social Work Practice, Ahead of Print. Purpose: The 5 + 1 Collaboration is an initiative where five teaching hospitals and a leading Melbourne university collaborate to promote and strengthen research, clinical practice in health social work, teaching, and collaboration. This collaboration fosters greater connection between academics, practitioners, and social work students. The 5 + 1 Collaboration provides a unique platform for the advancement of effective practice, practice-driven research, and student field education placements. Method: In a prospective study (2020 through 2021), employing the 5 + 1 model, at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, over 100 frontline hospital social workers from five Melbourne hospitals participated in this study to determine, in detail, how the pandemic had affected their work. Results: This provided at a granular level, significant insights relating to the impact of the pandemic on the provision of social work services in the acute hospital setting. Additionally, during the study period, academic social work student placements were made at the five participating hospitals, with the students actively participating as part of the research team and providing feedback about their own experiences. Discussion: The study documented the challenges to hospital social work practice because of the pandemic, how hospital social workers rose to the challenges, and, importantly, adapted their practice and acquired new skills. This information may inform future hospital social work practice. The study also demonstrated that effective on-line student placements were possible, even in the setting of a pandemic.

Apr 26th 2024, 11:06

American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine®, Ahead of Print. IntroductionElectronic patient-reported outcome measures (e-PROMs) offer advantages in palliative cancer care, including rapid completion, improved data quality and direct storage, improving clinical decision-making. The electronic Integrated Palliative Care Outcome Scale (e-IPOS) in this context enables thorough self-assessment by patients, enhancing symptom management and self-reflection of their current situation.AimTo evaluate the feasibility of implementing the e-IPOS in home palliative cancer care.OutcomesThe primary outcomes included the enrollment consent rate, study retention rate, e-IPOS completion rate and response completeness, and the number of clinical assessments and interventions performed during home visits. The secondary outcomes were the number of unscheduled visits and patients’ perceived quality of life.DesignA two-group quasiexperimental clinical pilot study. The control group received standard palliative care, the intervention group received standard care along with weekly e-IPOS completion during home visits. Both groups were enrolled for 4 weeks.Setting/participantsAdults with advanced cancer from the home palliative care unit of the Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori of Milan.ResultsTwenty-three patients were enrolled (74.19%), and 20 completed the study (drop-out: 13.04%). 82.5% of the expected e-IPOS responses were received, of which 96.9% were fully complete. In the intervention group, the Wilcoxon test showed an increase in identified needs and documented interventions (P < .05) and a decrease in unscheduled visits (P < .05).ConclusionIt is feasible to recruit people via home palliative care for an e-IPOS implementation study. Future fully powered studies should investigate the feasibility and assess patients’ perceptions of its use to better understand its clinical benefits.

Apr 26th 2024, 10:07

Human Relations, Ahead of Print. While narcissism is commonly regarded as a dark personality trait associated with many negative outcomes, it also carries potential benefits. How to suppress the negative aspects of narcissism and promote its benefits has important implications for both scholars and practitioners. This study proposes two managerial practices (i.e. promotions based on relative performance and empowering leadership) that motivate employees with high narcissism to bring benefits to the workplace. Drawing on expectancy theory, we theorize that narcissism, promotions based on relative performance, and empowering leadership each influence valence, instrumentality, and expectancy, respectively, thereby driving diverse information searching, which indirectly increases radical and incremental creativity. The results of a multi-time and multi-source field study of 462 employees on 88 teams indicate that narcissism is positively associated with diverse information searching when team leaders evaluate promotions based on relative performance and empower narcissistic employees. Moreover, there is an indirect relationship between a three-way interaction (i.e. narcissism × promotions based on relative performance × empowering leadership) and radical and incremental creativity via diverse information searching. We conclude by discussing the theoretical and practical implications of these findings, offering insights into more effective management of employees with high narcissism at work.

Apr 26th 2024, 09:47

Psychiatric Rehabilitation Journal, Vol 47(1), Mar 2024, 2-8; doi:10.1037/prj0000568
Objective: Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is based on power as fundamental to doing research. It evolved as a way of “knowing” from the broader idea of natural science. While previously viewed as objective, natural science is now understood as, at least, partially socially constructed. Method: History of research and epistemology is reviewed in terms of science. More specifically, we delve into science as social construction and how this conceptually opens the door to considering power in its processes. We then unpack CBPR as one way to do mental health research that artfully weaves power into method. Results: Natural science has evolved from believing scientism (i.e., the scientific method) is sufficient to describe physical and social phenomena to terms of social constructivism; namely, the social processes that impact investigators are necessary to understand science and its product. This highlights the role of power; namely, investigator choices about hypotheses, methods, analyses, and interpretations influence the products of individual studies. The recovery movement is the embodiment of power that significantly changed research and rehabilitation in mental health. CBPR has emerged to include people with lived experience in the research enterprise. CBPR is partnership among people with lived experience, health scientists, and service providers in all facets of doing research. Conclusions and Implications for Practice: Integrating CBPR into rehabilitation science has led to findings and actions that better serve community objectives. Continuing to weave CBPR into research and development will further enhance recovery in practice. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

Psychiatric Rehabilitation Journal, Vol 47(1), Mar 2024, 1; doi:10.1037/prj0000578
Voices of people with lived experience led to a recovery-based revolution in rehabilitation practices and principles. Hence, these same voices must be included as partners in the research enterprise meant to evaluate ongoing developments in this area. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is the one way to do this. CBPR is not really new to the rehabilitation arena; Rogers and Palmer-Erbs highlighted the paradigm shift in rehabilitation research calling for participatory action research (PAR). PAR is action-oriented and rooted in partnerships between people with lived experience, service providers, and intervention researchers. This special section briefly highlights important topics that highlight the continued need for CBPR in our research enterprise. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)

Apr 26th 2024, 08:07

Labor Studies Journal, Ahead of Print. The history of US capitalism is one wherein occupations with higher concentrations of workers of color coincide with increased levels of exploitation. Recent studies in education show the way strained and precarious working environments led to the now infamous “teacher shortages.” I employ the lenses of critical studies of race and capitalism to examine the interest convergence dilemma vis-à-vis recent efforts to increase diversity amid substandard labor conditions in teaching. This analysis offers a cautionary note, and absent a major structural intervention, the interests of marginalized groups (i.e., stronger representation) might converge with the interests of capitalism (i.e., cheap labor).

Apr 26th 2024, 08:07

Journal of Applied Gerontology, Ahead of Print. Ageism in healthcare is related to poor outcomes for older patients. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationships between ageism and various aspects of the psychological well-being of healthcare professionals in Atlantic Canada. In 2023, an online survey of 294 healthcare professionals from various disciplines was conducted. This survey included items to measure expectations of aging, stress, burnout, emotional dissonance, and well-being. Results indicated that aging expectations were significantly related to burnout, perceived stress, well-being, and emotional dissonance. With the use of a path analysis, emotional dissonance partially mediated relationships between burnout and well-being with stress. However, aging expectations did not significantly predict emotional dissonance. Differences were found across professional groups on ageism. Conclusions support the need for increased awareness to the relationship between ageist attitudes and professionals’ well-being, as well as the need for education and interventions to reduce false expectations about the aging process.

Apr 26th 2024, 07:21

As a professor of psychology, I focus my research on substance use in adolescents and young adults. A major change during my time in research is the legalization and explosion of cannabis availability across the U.S. There are arguments for and against increasing legalization of cannabis for adult use in the U.S., but expanded access to legal cannabis also may have unintended consequences for adolescents.
