Demoralization: A concept analysis through a scoping review methodology.

Background: Demoralization is a complex construct comprising of several clinical phenomena that has gained increasing interest in clinical practice and research; however, the concept needs to be sufficiently specified and clearly described. A concept analysis of demoralization is necessary to integrate previous research findings and establish the scientific foundation for future intervention research.

Preferences of cancer survivors for follow-up care: a systematic review of discrete choice experiments.

Background: The unmet post-treatment needs and issues of cancer survivors for follow-up care are still significant, matching appropriate and acceptable follow-up care to cancer survivors' preferences, may increase adherence of survivors to health programs and quality of life. There is a knowledge gap about how cancer survivors measured their choices between different aspects of follow-up care. As discrete choice experiments (DCE) have been widely used in patient preference elicitation, we reviewed DCE on follow-up care for cancer survivors.

Meta-analysis of the association between dietary inflammation index and C-reactive protein level.

Background: There have been various clinical studies on the effect of dietary inflammatory index (DII) on circulating inflammatory biomarkers, but the findings from these are contradictory. The aim of the present study was to clarify any association.

Methods: The PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and Cochrane Library database were searched for relevant studies from inception February 2021.

To prove the positive association between resilience and clinical communication ability among Chinese nursing students, and to determine whether coping styles play a mediating role in the relationship between them.Four hundred and seventy-one nursing students from a traditional Chinese Medical university were enrolled in this study. They completed some questionnaires, which included the Chinese Version of the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire (SCSQ), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale Chinese Version, and Clinical Communication Ability Scale.

Meta-analysis of the association between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and upper aerodigestive tract cancer risk.

Background: Epidemiological studies have reported an inconsistent relationship between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancer risk. However, no systematic review or meta-analysis has been reported up to now. To quantify the association between DII and UADT cancer risk, we performed this meta-analysis.
