Objectives: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the prevalence of loneliness and social isolation among informal carers of individuals with dementia and to identify potential influencing factors.
Methods: We conducted a comprehensive search across 10 electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Science, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Scopus, Chinese Biomedical, China National Knowledge Internet, and WANFANG. Our search strategy covered the inception of the databases up to September 16, 2023, with an updated search conducted on March 8, 2024.
Marine pollutant Phenanthrene (PHE) exposure causes immunosuppression of hemocytes in crustacean species, Scylla paramamosain.
Comp Biochem Physiol C Toxicol Pharmacol
January 2024
Article Synopsis
- Phenanthrene (PHE), a toxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), is prevalent in aquatic settings and adversely affects marine life, particularly crustaceans like the Scylla paramamosain.
- In an experiment, varying concentrations of PHE (0, 0.7, 7, 70 μg/L) were administered to groups of 35 crabs, revealing changes in hemocyte characteristics and increased total hemocyte counts as PHE levels rose.
- The results indicated that PHE exposure caused hepatopancreas damage and altered antioxidant enzyme activities, while also significantly up-regulating key immune-related genes, underscoring the potential dangers of PAH pollution on marine ecosystems.
The effect of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in immunity and WSSV infection of Scylla paramamosain.
Fish Shellfish Immunol
October 2023
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are typically regarded as being generated by the cellular respiratory chain or by cells under pathological damage, which play a crucial role as signaling molecules in promoting hemocytes circulation and normal cellular physiological functions. In this study, the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC) was used to reduce ROS in vivo and in vitro, which to analyze the effect of ROS on innate immunity and viral infection of mud crab. The total hemocyte count (THC), phenoloxidase (PO), superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, immune-relative genes were analyzed, respectively.

J Psychiatr Ment Health Nurs
April 2024
Article Synopsis
- Nurses often face traumatic events in their work, which can lead to both negative outcomes like PTSD and positive outcomes such as posttraumatic growth (PTG), enhancing their mental health and life satisfaction.
- The study shows that nurses generally experience moderate levels of PTG after trauma, and it identifies various personal, work-related, and organizational factors that can impact this growth.
- The findings suggest that interventions to support PTG should consider these influencing factors to better help nurses cope with trauma and foster their positive development.*
Article Synopsis
- Workplace bullying is linked to a 26% increased risk of employees taking sick leave, regardless of how long the follow-up period is.
- The study found a significant reverse effect, indicating that individuals with long-term sickness absence are more likely to experience workplace bullying later on.
- This research suggests a mutual relationship between workplace bullying and long-term sickness absence, urging organizations to focus on preventative measures for bullying, especially for employees who return after extended illnesses.
The Relationship between Spatial Characteristics of Urban-Rural Settlements and Carbon Emissions in Guangdong Province.
Int J Environ Res Public Health
February 2023
As containers of human activities, both urban and rural built-up settlements play roles in the increment of regional GHG emissions. This study investigates the relationship between the spatial characteristics of different urban-rural settlements and carbon emissions in Guangdong province, China. After estimating the carbon emissions of 21 cities in Guangdong province from 2005 to 2020, this paper constructs a panel regression model based on the STIPRAT model to identify the impact of different types of urban-rural settlements on carbon emissions with controlling socioeconomic factors.

Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.
Aim: This review examined the association between workplace violence and the risk of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and burnout among nurses.
Background: The extent to which workplace violence is associated with an increased risk of PTSD and burnout in nurses remains unclear.
Evaluation: We searched nine electronic databases (PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Chinese Biomedical, China National Knowledge Internet and WANFANG).
Family caregivers play an increasingly important role in providing care services, especially for the aging population. Currently, evidence on compassion fatigue among family caregivers remains limited. Our study aims to assess the levels and related factors of compassion fatigue and compassion satisfaction in family caregivers.
