A critical reflection on using the Patient Engagement In Research Scale (PEIRS) to evaluate patient and family partners' engagement in dementia research.

Introduction: Research involvement of people with lived experiences is increasing. Few tools are designed to evaluate their engagement in research. The Patient Engagement In Research Scale (PEIRS) is one of the few validated tools.

p140Cap modulates the mevalonate pathway decreasing cell migration and enhancing drug sensitivity in breast cancer cells.

p140Cap is an adaptor protein involved in assembling multi-protein complexes regulating several cellular processes. p140Cap acts as a tumor suppressor in breast cancer (BC) and neuroblastoma patients, where its expression correlates with a better prognosis. The role of p140Cap in tumor metabolism remains largely unknown.

Exploring experiences of loneliness among Canadian long-term care residents during the COVID-19 pandemic: A qualitative study.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has significant impact on long-term care (LTC) residents' health and well-being.

Objectives: This study investigated resident experiences of loneliness during the COVID-19 pandemic in Canadian LTC homes to offer lessons learned and implications.

Methods: 15 residents and 16 staff members were recruited from two large urban Canadian LTC homes with large outbreaks and fatalities.

Facilitators and barriers to using smart TV among older adults in care settings: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: The objective of the scoping review is to understand what has been reported in the literature regarding facilitators and barriers to using smart television (smart TV) among older adults in care settings.

Methods And Analysis: The scoping review will adopt the Joanna Briggs Institute scoping review methodology. It will occur between March and August 2022.

Facilitators and barriers to using telepresence robots in aged care settings: A scoping review.

Social isolation has been a significant issue in aged care settings, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, and is associated with adverse outcomes, including loneliness, depression, and cognitive decline. While robotic assistance may help mitigate social isolation, it would be helpful to know how to adopt technology in aged care. This scoping review aims to explore facilitators and barriers to the implementation of telepresence robots in aged care settings.

Facilitators and barriers to using telepresence robots in aged care settings: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: Social isolation is a significant issue in aged care settings (eg, long-term care (LTC) and hospital) and is associated with adverse outcomes such as reduced well-being and loneliness. Loneliness is linked with depression, anxiety, cognitive decline, weakened immune system, poor physical health, poor quality of life and mortality. The use of robotic assistance may help mitigate social isolation and loneliness.

Creating Dementia-Friendly Communities for Social Inclusion: A Scoping Review.

This scoping review explores key strategies of creating inclusive dementia-friendly communities that support people with dementia and their informal caregiver. Social exclusion is commonly reported by people with dementia. Dementia-friendly community has emerged as an idea with potential to contribute to cultivating social inclusion.

Creating a toolkit with stakeholders for leveraging tablet computers to support person-centred dementia care in hospitals.

Introduction: People with dementia may refuse care because they feel overwhelmed by an unfamiliar environment. Everyday technology such as tablets have the potential to support person-centred dementia care in hospitals.

Aims: We aimed to identify barriers and enabling factors in order to develop a toolkit to support the use of tablets in engaging individual and group activities, especially to play family videos, for hospitalized older people with dementia.

Using touchscreen tablets to support social connections and reduce responsive behaviours among people with dementia in care settings: A scoping review.

The use of touchscreen tablets, such as the iPad, offers potential to support the person with dementia staying in a care setting, ranging from a long-term care home to an adult day programme. Although electronic devices are used among people with dementia, a comprehensive review of studies focusing on their impact and how they may be used effectively in care settings is lacking. We conducted a scoping review to summarize existing knowledge about the impact of touchscreen tablets in supporting social connections and reducing responsive behaviours of people with dementia in care settings.

Exploring the perceptions of people with dementia about the social robot PARO in a hospital setting.

New technology, such as social robots, opens up new opportunities in hospital settings. PARO, a robotic pet seal, was designed to provide emotional and social support for older people with dementia. We applied video-ethnographic methods, including conversational interviews and observations with video recording among 10 patient participants while they were using the robot.

Use of touch screen tablets to support social connections and reduce responsive behaviours among people with dementia in care settings: a scoping review protocol.

Introduction: The disabilities associated with dementia make the adjustment to staying in a care setting stressful. Separation from family can exacerbate the effects of stress. The use of touch screen tablets such as an iPad may offer potential to support the person with dementia staying in a care setting.

The benefits of and barriers to using a social robot PARO in care settings: a scoping review.

Background: Given the complexity of providing dementia care in hospitals, integrating technology into practice is a high challenge and an important opportunity. Although there are a growing demand and interest in using social robots in a variety of care settings to support dementia care, little is known about the impacts of the robotics and their application in care settings, i.e.
