Objective: To identify the occupational factors that influence turnover intention among working women with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS).

Methods: This cross-sectional study targeted 410 working women with LUTS from a 2022 survey. Occupational characteristics, including working hours, shift work, bathroom accessibility, sitting time, musculoskeletal strain, job stress, and emotional labor, were assessed through a structured self-reported questionnaire using validated tools. Multiple logistic regression was applied to analyze the association of these factors with turnover intention.

Results: Women who worked >52 h per week had an odds ratio of 2.02 for turnover intention compared to those who worked fewer hours. Higher job stress and emotional labor scores also were associated with increased turnover intention.

Conclusion: Women with LUTS have higher turnover intention due to vulnerability to long hours, job stress, and emotional labor.

Obesity represents a major health crisis in the United States, significantly increasing risks for chronic diseases and generating substantial economic costs. While bariatric surgery and pharmacological interventions such as GLP-1 receptor agonists have been proven effective in achieving substantial weight loss and improving comorbid conditions, they also raise concerns about the unintended loss of fat-free mass, particularly muscle. This loss of muscle mass compromises physical functionality, quality of life, and long-term metabolic health, particularly in individuals with sarcopenic obesity or those at risk of frailty.

Background: Addressing the growing challenge of nurse retention requires coordinated actions at national and global levels to improve recruitment, retention policies, and investments in the nursing work environment. The nursing work environment, defined as the "organizational characteristics of a work setting that facilitate or constrain professional nursing practice", is critical in influencing whether nurses decide to leave their jobs. This study investigates the impact of differentiated nursing practices - which involved tailoring roles and responsibilities based on nurses' training, skills, and experience in Dutch hospitals - and investigated their impact on the nursing work environment and turnover intention (i.
