Factors influencing performance of stroke management among nurses in Bangladesh
Full text linkDepartment of NursingABSTRACT Factors Influencing Performance of Stroke Management among Nurses in Bangladesh Md. Shariful Islam Department of Nursing The Graduate School Yonsei University Stroke has become the leading cause of disability and death worldwide. Nurses’ role is pivotal in preventing secondary complications of stroke. Individual and organizational factors greatly influence towards nurses performance of stroke patient management. This study examined level of performance of stroke management and its influencing factors among nurses in Bangladesh. This is a cross-sectional descriptive study. After IRB approval, data were collected from May, 25 to August, 25, 2017 using paper and pencil questionnaire. A total of 226 nurses were recruited from three tertiary level hospitals in Bangladesh. Nurses’ performances were investigated using Demographic Questionnaire (DQ-11), Practice on Stroke Management Questionnaire (PSMQ-10), Stroke Knowledge Questionnaire (SKQ-12), Attitudes on Stroke Mangement Questionnaire (ASMQ-14), Leadership Practice Inventory (LPI-17), Organizational Learning Survey (OLS-25) and Organizational Readiness for Change (ORC-11) related questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, one way ANOVA, Pearson’s Product-Moment Correlation-Coefficient and Multiple Regression Analysis. Results showed that nurses had moderate level of knowledge (Mean = 3.19, SD = 2.24), attitudes (M = 45. 19, SD = 4.46) and performance (M = 30.29, SD = 6.97). A significant positive correlation found between nurses knowledge and attitudes (r = 0.16, p = 0.05) and between knowledge and performance (r = 0.44, p = 0.000) respectively. However no significant relationship found between attitudes and performance towards stroke management (r = 0.030, p >0.05). Statistical analysis showed that nurses working with ICU ward (β = 7.598, p <0.01), leadership practice ability (β = 0.031, p <0.05), and stroke knowledge (β = 0.864, p <0.001) were major factors affecting nurses’ performance towards stroke management which explained 29.4% of the total variance. In-service stroke education program need to be provided for less experienced nurses who have no previous education on stroke patient maangement to enhance their clinical performance. In addition tertiary level hospital management need to provide more opportunities for their nurses to obtain continuing education on stroke or increase the number of courses available at the institutional level in order to enhance their nurses’ performance towards stroke patient management. ________________________________________________________________________open박
Barriers and facilitators to patient engagement in patient safety from patients and healthcare professionals' perspectives: A systematic review and meta-synthesis
No full textAIMS: To explore patients' and healthcare professionals' (HCPs) perceived barriers and facilitators to patient engagement in patient safety. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review and meta-synthesis from five computerized databases, including PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus and PsycINFO, as well as grey literature and reference lists of included studies. Data were last searched in December 2019 with no limitation on the year of publication. Qualitative and Mix-methods studies that explored HCPs' and patients' perceptions of barriers and facilitators to patient engagement in patient safety were included. Two authors independently screened the titles and the abstracts of studies. Next, the full texts of the screened studies were reviewed by two authors. Potential discrepancies were resolved by consensus with a third author. The Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool was used for quality appraisal. Thematic analysis was used to synthesize results. RESULTS: Nineteen studies out of 2616 were included in this systematic review. Themes related to barriers included: patient unwillingness, HCPs' unwillingness, and inadequate infrastructures. Themes related to facilitators were: encouraging patients, sharing information with patients, establishing trustful relationship, establishing patient-centred care and improving organizational resources. CONCLUSION: Patients have an active role in improving their safety. Strategies are required to address barriers that hinder or prevent patient engagement and create capacity and facilitate action.Full Tex
Impact of dualism on the perception of treatability in psychiatry

This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution license CC BY 4.0, which permits unrestricted use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.Background: A false division between mental and physical disorders is supported by dualism, contributing to mental health stigma. There is a widespread misconception about the prognosis and treatment options for psychiatric diseases. This is despite data supporting the effectiveness of psychiatric treatments for a variety of illnesses that have been proven by meta-analysis. In general, the efficacy of drugs used to treat physical problems and psychiatric disorders is comparable. Method(s): In this article, experts from a variety of fields-including psychiatry, primary care, and general medicine-highlight how the paradigms based on dualism play a crucial role in maintaining the myths regarding psychiatric disorders, particularly those that relate to their treatability in comparison to physical health conditions. Result(s): There are numerous similarities between mental and physical problems in terms of the causes and treatment. Healthcare, like other complex human systems, is rife with uncertainty. In actuality, the severity and treatability of both physical and mental diseases range widely. Treatment response varies from person to person. There are certain physical and mental health disorders that respond well to treatment, some that do not, and some for which there are currently no effective cures. Conclusion(s): We believe that dualism, which promotes the separation of mental and physical phenomena, is the core driving force behind these misconceptions. These fallacies, in our opinion, are primarily motivated by dualism, which advocates the division of mental from physical occurrences.

Enhanced cancer cell (HeLa) killing efficacy of mixed ?lpha and gamma iron oxide superparamagnetic nanoparticles under combined AC (alternating current) magnetic-field and photoexcitation
No full textWe synthesized mixed ? and ?-Fe2O3 nanoparticles and investigated their toxic effects against HeLa cells under induced AC (alternating current) magnetic-fields and photoexcited conditions at room temperature. The findings revealed that the cellkilling percentage was increased with increasing dose for all types of treatments. Finally, 99% cancer cells were destructed at 1.2 mL dose when exposed to combined AC magnetic-field and photoexcited conditions (T3) whereas 89 and 83 % of HeLa cells were killed under only AC magnetic-field induced (T1) or only photoexcited (T2) condition at the same dose
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

Factors leading to market segmentation of fashion house business based on customer behavior: evidence from Bangladeshi fashion industry
No full textThe key objective of this paper is to find out factors affecting market
segmentation of fashion house business in Bangladesh based on customer
behaviour. For the purpose of the study, a judgment sampling of 200
customers from the entire populations has been targeted. Data collected in
randomly through using five-point Likert scale (1=strongly disagree, 5=
strongly agree) questionnaires. The hypothesis has been developed on the
correlation between variables and a total of 14 variables are considered for
the study. After analysis of data, it has been revealed that there are two types
of customer segments a) low fashionable customers (LFC) and b) high
fashionable customers (HFC). The study depicts that, in the case of low
fashionable customers, the marketer pay attention to prices, return facilities,
online shopping, friendly employees, well decoration and hassle free
environment whereas in the case of high fashionable customers marketers pay
attention to brand image, quality of clothes, credit cards, customized
fashionable clothes, modern and stylish clothes. The study is a part of
Segmentation-Targeting-Positioning (STP) analysis where KMO and
Bartlett\u27s Test were used to determine the appropriateness of data for factor
analysis. The rotation matrix used for extracting the number of leading factors
from 14 variables and their relationship and the residuals used to the model
fit. The study concluded with the statement that, fashion product marketers
must need relevant and adequate concentration on customer behaviour while
making product marketing strategy
