RESUMEN
Electrode arrays that interface with peripheral nerves are used in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders; however, they require complex placement surgeries that carry a high risk of nerve injury. Here we leverage recent advances in soft robotic actuators and flexible electronics to develop highly conformable nerve cuffs that combine electrochemically driven conducting-polymer-based soft actuators with low-impedance microelectrodes. Driven with applied voltages as small as a few hundreds of millivolts, these cuffs allow active grasping or wrapping around delicate nerves. We validate this technology using in vivo rat models, showing that the cuffs form and maintain a self-closing and reliable bioelectronic interface with the sciatic nerve of rats without the use of surgical sutures or glues. This seamless integration of soft electrochemical actuators with neurotechnology offers a path towards minimally invasive intraoperative monitoring of nerve activity and high-quality bioelectronic interfaces.

Highly-efficient and cost-effective electrocatalysts toward the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are crucial for advancing sustainable energy technologies. Herein, a novel approach leveraging corrosion engineering is presented to facilitate the in situ growth of amorphous cobalt-iron hydroxides on nickel-iron foam (CoFe(OH)x-m/NFF) within a NaCl-CoCl2 aqueous solution. By adjusting the concentration of the solution, the compositions can tailored and morphologies of these hydroxides to optimize the OER electrocatalytic performance. Specifically, the CoFe(OH)x-500/NFF electrode manifests as distinctive 3D flower-like clusters composed of remarkably thin nanosheets, measuring a mere 1 nm in thickness. By virtue of the amorphous and ultrathin nanosheet structure, the CoFe(OH)x-500/NFF electrode exhibits superior OER activity, characterized by notably low overpotentials (η100, 274 mV) and an exceptionally small Tafel slope of 40.54 mV dec-1. Moreover, the electrode's performance remains robust, maintaining low overpotentials for 168 h at 100 mA cm-2. In situ Raman spectroscopy indicates that the hydroxides experience surface structural reconstruction and transform into high-valent CoFeO2 with active Co(IV)-O sites during the OER. Theoretical calculations underscore the critical role of the NiFe substrate in enhancing the electrode's OER activity by improving electrical conductivity and modifying the adsorption energy of reaction intermediates, thereby reducing the energy barrier for the reaction.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to explore discrepancies in adolescents with chronic illness and their parents' perceptions of family resilience, as well as the relationship between these differences and the psychological adjustment of adolescents with chronic illness. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 264 dyads of parents (77.7% mothers, mean age 41.60 years, SD = 6.17) and adolescents (48.5% girls, mean age 12.68 years, SD = 2.11) with chronic illness were recruited through convenience sampling from three children's hospitals in Wenzhou, Hangzhou, and Shanghai, China between June 2022 and May 2023. The Chinese version of the Family Resilience Scale and the Psychological Adjustment Scale, which are commonly used measures with good reliability and validity, were employed to assess family resilience and psychological adaption, respectively. The data were analyzed using polynomial regression and response surface analysis. RESULTS: Adolescents with chronic illness reported higher family resilience than their parents (t=-2.80, p < 0.05). The correlations between family resilience and adolescents' psychological adjustment reported by the adolescents (r = 0.45-0.48) were higher than parents (r = 0.18-0.23). In the line of congruence, there were positive linear (a1 = 1.09-1.60, p < 0.001) and curvilinear (a2=-1.38â¼-0.72, p < 0.05) associations between convergent family resilience and adolescents' psychological adjustment. In the line of incongruence, when adolescents reported lower family resilience than parents, adolescents had a lower level of psychological adjustment (a3=-1.02â¼-0.45, p < 0.05). Adolescents' sociability decreased when the perceived family resilience of parent-adolescent dyads converged (a4 = 1.36, p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The findings highlighted the importance of considering the discrepancies and congruence of family resilience in the parent-child dyads when developing interventions to improve the psychological adjustment of adolescents with chronic illness. Interventions aimed at strengthening family communication to foster the convergence of perceptions of family resilience in parent-adolescent dyads were warranted.

BACKGROUND: Psychological distress is common in maintenance hemodialysis patients, and high psychological resilience can promote psychological well-being. The current research focuses on psychological resilience protective factors such as family resilience and social support. However, the trajectories of psychological resilience, family resilience, and social support over time and their longitudinal relationships in maintenance hemodialysis patients have not been fully explored yet. Therefore, this study aims to explore the longitudinal relationship between these factors. METHODS: Patients who received regular hemodialysis treatment for more than three months at dialysis centers of three tertiary hospitals in Zhejiang, China, were recruited from September to December 2020. A total of 252 patients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria completed three follow-up surveys, including social support, family resilience, and psychological resilience assessments. A repeated measures ANOVA was used to explore differences in their respective scores at different time points. The cross-lagged analysis was performed in AMOS using the maximum likelihood method to examine the the reciprocal predictive relationships between these factors. RESULTS: Social support and psychological resilience remained relatively stable over time, whereas family resilience indicated a little increasing trend. According to the cross-lagged analysis, higher T1 social support predicted higher family resilience at T2 [ß = 0.123, 95% CI (0.026-0.244)]. Further, the effects of T2 social support to T3 family resilience [ß = 0.194, 95%CI (0.039-0.335)] and psychological resilience [ß = 0.205, 95%CI (0.049-0.354)] were significant. Finally, the effects of T2 family resilience to T3 social support [ß = 0.122, 95%CI (0.010-0.225)] and psychological resilience [ß = 0.244, 95%CI (0.119-0.359)] were also significant. CONCLUSIONS: The study showed that the directionality of the relationship appears to be from social support or family resilience to patients' psychological resilience but not vice versa. This finding reminds healthcare professionals to emphasize the vital role of social and family resources in providing appropriate support and interventions for maintenance hemodialysis patients to promote psychological resilience and mental health development.

AIMS: This study explored the relationships between family resilience, dyadic coping and psychological adjustment among adolescents with chronic illnesses and their parents. The actor-partner interdependence mediation model was used to validate the mediating role of dyadic coping in the relationship between family resilience and psychological adjustment. DESIGN: This is a cross-sectional study. METHODS: A total of 318 parent-adolescents dyads were recruited from three paediatric hospitals in Wenzhou, Hangzhou, Shanghai city, China, between June 2022 and August 2023. The parents had a mean age of 41.62 years, and the adolescents had a mean age of 12.66 years. Participants independently completed a self-report questionnaire assessed family resilience, dyadic coping and psychological adjustment. Data analysis was conducted using the actor-partner interdependence mediation model. RESULTS: The findings suggest that in the actor effects, family resilience directly influenced psychological adjustment, and family resilience is related to psychological adjustment through positive dyadic coping. In the partner effect, parents' family resilience influenced adolescents' psychological adjustment through the parents' positive dyadic coping. Similarly, adolescents' family resilience influenced parents' psychological adjustment through both parents' positive dyadic coping and adolescents' negative dyadic coping. Additionally, there was a partner effect between parents' family resilience and adolescents' psychological adjustment. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated the importance of developing effective dyadic interventions based on family resilience or positive dyadic coping strategies to improve the mental health of adolescents with chronic illnesses and their parents. IMPACT: The mediating role of dyadic coping in the relationship between family resilience and psychological adjustment among adolescents with chronic illnesses and their parents was demonstrated. Future psychosocial interventions should focus on increasing parents' positive dyadic coping strategies and improving adolescents' negative dyadic coping strategies. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient or public contribution.
RESUMEN
AIMS: To construct a conceptual framework on the process of family resilience during the first year following childhood leukaemia diagnosis. DESIGN: A longitudinal qualitative interview study. METHODS: A longitudinal qualitative study following a grounded theory methodology was employed. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with parents of children with leukaemia in a general hospital. The participants were recruited through purposive and theoretical sampling and longitudinal engagement was achieved by conducting interviews at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the leukaemia diagnosis. The core category and categories were saturated following the enrolment of parents of children with leukaemia. Data collection and analyses were performed simultaneously. RESULTS: Sixteen parents of children with leukaemia participated. The core category of 'families living with childhood leukaemia' refers to the process of family resilience during the first year following childhood leukaemia diagnosis, which includes three phases: (1) destruction and resiliency period; (2) adjustment and consolidation period; and (3) growth and planning period. CONCLUSION: This study explored the dynamic, complex and continuous processes of resilience among families coping with childhood leukaemia during the first year following diagnosis. Further research should design tailored family interventions that characterise the different phases of family resilience, aiming to support family well-being, integrity and functioning. IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PROFESSION AND/OR PATIENT CARE: Both families and healthcare professionals must create an enabling environment that supports families coping with difficulties. Understanding the different phases of family resilience allows healthcare professionals to provide holistic care that meets the demands of families with childhood leukaemia. IMPACT: Unique knowledge emerged about the family's resiliency process when facing childhood leukaemia, suggesting a family-led revolution in understanding and managing childhood leukaemia. Therefore, the development of phased, resilience-based family interventions is imperative. REPORTING METHOD: This study was reported using the COREQ checklist. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Patients contributed via study participation.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The turnover of newly graduated nurses is a severe challenge for healthcare systems, and so it is essential to identify its predictive factors. This study investigates whether professional commitment, career adaptability, career self-efficacy, anxiety, and depression levels before and after internship can predict the turnover intention of newly graduated nurses after one year of employment. METHODS: In a longitudinal study, 271 undergraduate nursing students recruited by convenience sampling were surveyed before internship (T1), after internship (T2), and after one year of employment (T3), with all surveys conducted on the Wenjuanxing survey platform ( www.wjx.cn ). Generalized linear models and restricted cubic spline models were used to explore possible linear and nonlinear relationships between turnover intention and the variables of interest. RESULTS: Professional commitment both pre-internship (ß = -0.060, p = 0.007, 95% CI [- 0.104, - 0.016]) and post-internship (ß = -0.053, p = 0.015, 95% CI [- 0.096, - 0.010]) can negatively predict turnover intention. There is also a negative linear relationship between post-internship career self-efficacy and turnover intention (ß = -0.308, p < 0.001, 95% CI [- 0.436, - 0.180]). In addition, professional commitment both pre-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.046, p = 0.004) and post-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.068, p < 0.001), career self-efficacy both pre-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.039, p = 0.008) and post-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.116, p < 0.001), career adaptability both pre-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.057, p < 0.001) and post-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.039, p = 0.008), anxiety both pre-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.035, p = 0.014) and post-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.048, p = 0.003), and depression levels both pre-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.031, P nonlinear = 0.021) and post-internship (adjusted R2 = 0.053, p = 0.002) are nonlinearly associated with turnover intention. CONCLUSIONS: Nursing educators and clinical care administrators must take action to enhance the professional commitment and career self-efficacy of nursing students during their internship. It is also important to pay attention to their career adaptability, as well as to any anxiety or depression that they may experience during clinical practice. This can help to reduce the turnover intention during the first year of their nursing career.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: This inquiry probes the suicide resilience experiences in suicide attempts by self-poisoning among Chinese youth. The study's goal is to provide healthcare professionals with critical insights to develop effective interventions that enhance suicide prevention measures and diminish the likelihood of subsequent attempts. METHODS: Utilizing a qualitative phenomenological approach, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 12 youths (Mean age = 21.1 ± 2.8 years; n = 7 females) who survived suicide attempts by self-poisoning. Data analysis was performed using Colaizzi's seven-step method, a rigorous method entailing iterative reading for the extraction of key statements and the distillation of thematic essence. RESULTS: Four primary themes with ten sub-themes were extracted: (1) New understanding of life (cherish life, and meaning of life), (2) Self-Reconciliation (self-acceptance, self-understanding, and self-openness), (3) Personal empowerment (increased self-reliance, increased responsibility, and increased emotional regulation), and (4) Life redesigning (faith in the future, and plan for the future). CONCLUSIONS: The findings reveal a potential for psychological growth and beneficial transformation in youth following suicide attempts by self-poisoning. These insights advocate for the integration of positive psychology principles in therapeutic interventions for this demographic.

Understanding the dynamics of ion migration and volume change is crucial to studying the functionality and long-term stability of soft polymeric materials operating at liquid interfaces, but the subsurface characterization of swelling processes in these systems remains elusive. In this work, we address the issue using modulated electrochemical atomic force microscopy as a depth-sensitive technique to study electroswelling effects in the high-performance actuator material polypyrrole doped with dodecylbenzenesulfonate (Ppy:DBS). We perform multidimensional measurements combining local electroswelling and electrochemical impedance spectroscopies on microstructured Ppy:DBS actuators. We interpret charge accumulation in the polymeric matrix with a quantitative model, giving access to both the spatiotemporal dynamics of ion migration and the distribution of electroswelling in the electroactive polymer layer. The findings demonstrate a nonuniform distribution of the effective ionic volume in the Ppy:DBS layer depending on the film morphology and redox state. Our findings indicate that the highly efficient actuation performance of Ppy:DBS is caused by rearrangements of the polymer microstructure induced by charge accumulation in the soft polymeric matrix, increasing the effective ionic volume in the bulk of the electroactive film for up to two times the value measured in free water.
RESUMEN
Psychological resilience plays an important role in overcoming emotional distress among people receiving maintenance hemodialysis (MHD). This study aimed to investigate how social support and family resilience interact to influence psychological resilience among Chinese people receiving MHD. This was a prospective longitudinal study with three time points: baseline (T1), 3 months (T2), and 6 months (T3) later. A convenience sample of 252 participants (67.1% male; 57.6 ± 13.8 years of age) from Zhejiang Province, China, who completed baseline measures of social support, family resilience, and psychological resilience, were further assessed for psychological resilience at T2 and T3. Polynomial regression (PR) and response surface analysis (RSA) were used to analyze the data. At all time points, and in the case of agreement between social support and family resilience, the combined effect of both variables manifested as a positive linear association with psychological resilience. Instead, at baseline, and in case of disagreement, the same combined effect manifested as a negative linear relationship related to psychological resilience. The findings highlighted the importance of considering the conjoint influence of social support and family resilience when developing interventions to improve the psychological resilience of people receiving MHD.
RESUMEN
Objective: This study aims to systematically identify, evaluate, and synthesize published qualitative research on the views and attitudes of adult cancer patients toward telemedicine and, consequently to better inform the future development of telemedicine technology and interventions. Methods: A meta-synthesis review was conducted to identify qualitative studies that reported adult cancer patients' perceptions toward telemedicine applications using nine electronic databases, including PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, the Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Wan Fang, VIP, and CNKI, from inception to November 2022. Quality appraisal was guided by the Joanna Briggs Institute's (JBI) Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research. Data were synthesized using "thematic synthesis" to identify themes and concepts. Results: A total of 3518 articles were retrieved, of which 23 met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. These studies identified three key meta-themes and 11 key sub-themes: (1) Benefits of telemedicine: obtaining information and social support, maintaining the continuity of treatment, receiving professional assistance, having greater flexibility, and promoting physical and mental health; (2) Limitations of telemedicine: interference with normal life, privacy and security issues, auxiliary function issues, and increased psychological burden; (3) Expectations for future telemedicine: more personalized intervention, more specific and diverse information. Conclusions: The study showed that the benefits and limitations coexisted in the process of telemedicine application among adult cancer patients. It is necessary to develop personalized applications that are better suited to the needs and characteristics of adult cancer patients. Future telemedicine interventions should focus on information diversification and provide patients with more diverse and effective information. Systematic review registration: PROSPERO, CRD42022324528.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Potential risk factors for suicide differ by age group. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the characteristics of patients with suicide attempts according to age group and any the relevant risk factors. METHODS: This study retrospectively reviewed the medical records of attempted suicide patients who were admitted to the emergency departments (ED) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2021. Demographic information and clinical characteristics were collected. The participants were divided into four age groups and the characteristics of each group were compared. RESULTS: A total of 834 participants were included in this study. Suicide attempts were more prevalent in females, and the gender difference decreased with age. Having religious belief and less educated suicide attempts were concentrated in the elderly groups. Adolescents suicide attempts were more likely to occur in the spring, autumn and during non-office hours. Mental disorders were the major motivation for suicide among adolescents, and interpersonal and social problems were more prevalent among youths. Psychiatric medication was the leading suicidal substances among adolescents, while pesticides and herbicides were more prevalent in adults. The history of psychiatric diagnosis was more common in adolescents, while the history of somatic disorder was more prevalent in the elderly. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed differences in the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients in different age groups. Therefore, it is necessary to construct individualized intervention strategies for each age group based on the characteristics of the patients in order to reduce suicide.

Background: Patients with cystocele of pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) stage II and below can be treated conservatively, but there are few reports on non-surgical treatment for these patients. This study aimed to present the real-world clinical effectiveness of nonsurgical treatment, including pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT), PFMT combined with pessary (PFMT + P), or non-ablative radiofrequency (PFMT + RF) for female with POP-Q stage II cystocele. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed females with POP-Q stage II cystocele between January 2020 and January 2022 who received PFMT, PFMT + P, or PFMT + RF treatment and were followed up for 12 months. Clinical parameters including Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-20 questionnaire (PFDI-20), Persian version urinary incontinence quality of life questionnaire (I-QOL), POP-Q, pelvic floor Glazer evaluation, and trans-labial ultrasound at different time points were analyzed. Results: There were 147 participants enrolled. PFDI-20 and I-QOL scores were improved in all groups, but the mean decrement in the PFDI-20 scores (-14.28±8.57 and -9.78±8.25) was higher in the PFMT + P group than in the PFMT group and PFMT + RF group at both 6 and 12 months (P<0.05), and the mean I-QOL score (3.82±23.43 and 3.47±22.06) was higher in the PFMT + RP group at both 6 months and 12 months (P<0.05). The PFMT + P group also showed higher improvement rate (43.3%, P=0.03) in terms of changing the severity of cystocele (point Ba) and delta bladder neck-symphyseal distance (ΔBSD) (P<0.05) than the other 2 groups at 12 months. No statistical difference was found in the type-I and type-II myofiber function-based Glazer assessment among 3 groups. Conclusions: The combination of 2 treatment strategies seems to be superior to PFMT only for stage-II cystocele. Specific prolapse-related symptoms and objective indicators did improve more in the PFMT + P group, whereas stress urinary incontinence (SUI) symptoms and quality of life were improved in the PFMT + RP group.
RESUMEN
This study investigated gender differences in health-risk behaviour patterns among young adults and assessed the associations of anxiety and depression with these patterns. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 1740 young Chinese adults aged 18-24 years. Latent class analysis (LCA) and multinomial logistic regression were conducted to identify the clusters of health-risk behaviours and their associations with anxiety and depression. Three common patterns were found for both genders: physical inactivity, substance use, and insufficient fruit intake (5.7% for males [M] and 11.6% for females [F]); a sedentary lifestyle only (48.4% for M and 48.9% for F); and a sedentary lifestyle, substance use, and an unhealthy diet (7.6% for M and 20.0% for F). Additionally, two additional unique patterns were found: physical inactivity and unhealthy diet in males (38.3%) and physical inactivity and insufficient fruit intake in females (19.6%). Sociodemographic variables exert different effects on health-risk behaviour patterns as a function of gender. Lower anxiety levels (odds ratio [OR]: 0.892; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.823-0.966) and greater depression levels (OR: 1.074; 95% CI: 1.008-1.143) were associated with a sedentary lifestyle, substance use, and unhealthy diet class only in female young adults compared with a sedentary-only class. These findings underscore the need for the implementation of targeted interventions based on gender differences.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To systematically review the current status and influencing factors of psychological resilience in stroke patients and to provide a theoretical basis for future personalized rehabilitation support and psychological interventions. METHOD: This systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses checklist. A comprehensive search of databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Medline, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP, CMB, and WANGFANG was conducted from inception until November 22, 2023, resulting in the retrieval of 2099 studies. Literature screening and data extraction were performed by two independent evaluators based on pre-defined inclusion and exclusion criteria, and meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 software. RESULTS: The final review included 23 studies. The results showed that self-efficacy, hope, confrontation coping, avoidance coping, functional independence, quality of life, and social support were positively associated with psychological resilience. Conversely, anxiety, depression, and resignation coping were negatively associated with psychological resilience. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with stroke have a low level of psychological resilience, which was influenced by a variety of factors. However, longitudinal and large sample studies are needed to further confirm these findings. These results should be integrated into clinical practice for early assessment and targeted intervention in psychological resilience to assist patients in coping with the rehabilitation process and life changes after a stroke.
