Introduction: Family members of patients admitted to an Intensive Care Unit present high uncertainty level due to not knowing what is happening and to not having clear details about the related events; therefore, interventions are required to allow modulating those levels. Objective: To evaluate the effect of an educational Nursing intervention compared to conventional care on the uncertainty of family members of patients hospitalized in an ICU. Materials and methods: An experimental study with a sample comprised by 132 relatives of patients admitted to an ICU, randomly distributed in four Solomon groups (33 in each group). The Nursing intervention based on the concepts of the Uncertainty in Illness Theory was applied to both experimental groups and devised under the Whittemore and Grey parameters with three moments: assessment; education about the relative's hospitalization in the ICU; and accompaniment. This was done with pre-assessments for two groups and post-assessments for the four groups, using the PPUS-FM Uncertainty Scale. The data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and respective non-parametric analyses. The study took into account the ethical principles in research. Results: The family members in the experimental groups presented a lower final uncertainty level when compared to the control groups, with a difference of 73.04 points and a p-value of 0.001. Discussion: Standardized interventions and under a theoretical model allow reducing uncertainty in relatives of patients in ICUs. Conclusions: The Nursing intervention based on the Uncertainty theory allows reducing uncertainty in relatives of patients hospitalized in an Intensive Care Unit.

Objective@#To investigate the association between early life adversity(ELA) and the triglycerideglucose (TyG) index for an indicator of insulin resistance among girls with precocious puberty, so as to provide scientific basis for effective prevention and intervention measures.@*Methods@#From July 2020 to September 2021, girls with precocious puberty were recruited from the childrens health clinic of Anhui Provincial Childrens Hospital. Among them, 150 girls with complete blood indicators and questionnaire information were included. Both parental reports and child selfreports were combined to assess ELA exposure. Fasting blood samples were collected to evaluate thetyg index. According to the ELA score classification, girls were classified into 3 groups for 0, 1 and >2, multiple linear regression analysis were conducted to examine the association between ELA exposure and TyG index in girls with precocious puberty.@*Results@#Precocious pubertal girls subjectively reported high rates of ELA exposure, with an average ELA score of (1.07±1.17) and an average TyG level of (7.99±0.49). A single adverse association was found that the exposure of girls with precocious puberty to a lack of warm nurturing was significantly positively correlated with the TyG index (β=0.26, 95%CI=0.03-0.50, P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that girls in the ELA≥2 group had a 0.24 increase in TyG levels compared to girls who did not experience ELA (β=0.24, 95%CI=0.04-0.43). After controlling for covariates such as child age, mothers age, fathers age, physical activity, screen time, birth weight, birth method (including natural and cesarean sections), perceived stress, BMI standardized Zscore, and parental assessment SDQ score, The association remained significant after controlling for covariates and was independent of BMI (β=0.25, 95%CI=0.04-0.46)(P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#Cumulative early life adversity in girls with precocious puberty is significantly positively correlated with the TyG index. It should early identify the girls exposed to high ELA for precocious puberty and timely intervent to improve their glucose metabolism function.

Objective@#To explore the mediating effect of rumination between life events and learning value doubt among junior high school students, so as to provide reference for the psychological health education of junior high school students.@*Methods@#From March to July 2023, a total of 930 junior high school students from Guangdong, Jiangsu and Hebei were selected by a combination of convenient sampling methods. Participants completed the Scales of Value of Learning (SVL), Ruminative Response scale (RRS) and Adolescent Self rating Life Events Checklist (ASLEC). The t test and ANOVA were used for inter group comparisons and Pearson correlation analysis was used for correlation analysis and bootstrap method was used for mediating effect test.@*Results@#The life events of junior middle school students were positively correlated with learning value doubt ( r =0.18), rumination ( r = 0.65 ) and its three dimensions (brooding, reflective pondering, and symptom focused rumination) ( r =0.60, 0.59, 0.66). Learning value doubt was positively correlated with rumination ( r =0.15) and its three dimensions ( r =0.07, 0.13, 0.19) ( P <0.05).The symptom focused rumination (effect size=0.09, 95% CI =0.06-0.11) and brooding (effect size=-0.07, 95% CI =-0.09--0.04) dimensions partially mediated the relationship between life events and learning value doubt. In the two influential pathways, symptom focused rumination exerts a stronger impact, and the difference was statistically significant (effect size=0.15, 95% CI =0.11- 0.20 , excluding 0) ( P <0.05).@*Conclusions@#Life events experienced by junior high school students can positively predict learning value doubt through symptom focused rumination, and negatively predict learning value doubt through brooding. Active attention should be paid to the mental health status of junior high school students, intervene promptly when they experience life events, reduce symptom based rumination, and improve their learning enthusiasm.

Objective@#To explore the relationship between depressive symptoms, negative life events and resilience among primary and secondary school teachers, so as to provide a reference for mental health promotion in school teachers.@*Methods@#During November to December 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted using convenient cluster sampling method to select 11 332 in service teachers from 38 schools in 8 provinces (cities) including Beijing, Guangdong, Anhui, Hubei, Sichuan, Xinjiang, Liaoning, and Heilongjiang. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 items, a self developed 21-item Adverse Life Events questionnaire, and a 10-item Conner-Davidson Resilience Scale were used to assess depressive symptoms, experiences of negative life events, and resilience levels of the teachers, respectively. The relationship between depressive symptoms, negative life events and psychological resilience were analyzed by multiple linear regression and stratified regression.@*Results@#The detection rate of depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school teachers was 14.0%. Negative life events of primary and secondary school teachers were positively correlated with depressive symptoms ( r =0.35), while psychological resilience was negatively correlated with depressive symptoms ( r =-0.45) ( P <0.05). After adjusting for possible covariates including gender and marital status, negative life events were positively correlated with depressive symptoms ( β=0.22, P <0.01). Resilience played a moderating role in the association of negative life events with depressive symptoms among primary and secondary school teachers ( B=-0.15, P <0.01).@*Conclusions@#Negative life events experiences are associated with higher level of depressive symptoms among school teachers. However, resilience might mitigate the negative effects of negative life events on depressive symptoms, playing a protective role in teachers mental health.

Introduction: The need for care has increased exponentially in recent years, along with chronic noncommunicable diseases. Caregivers have been predominantly women, although in recent years there has been an increase in the number of men assuming this role. Each of them approaches caregiving differently, shaping their caregiving experience differently from one another. Objective: To identify, through scientific evidence, the meaning of being a caregiver for men and women who assume this role. Methodology: This is an integrative literature review of articles published from 2012 to 2023, following Whittemore and Knafl's proposal. Keywords in Spanish, English, and Portuguese were used. The databases searched were Scopus, CINAHL, Web of Science, Ovid, and PubMed. Twenty-four articles that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. Results: The following themes emerged: "Losses and limitations due to the caregiver's role," "Feelings experienced by the caregiver," "Caregiving as an act of love," and "Transcendence of care: between spirituality and religiosity." Conclusions: It was found that men focus their care on the person's comfort, cleanliness, and medication, while women provide care focused on continuous emotional support, assuming this commitment at all times and places, building an experience of care aimed at "always being aware." In both genders, the onset of stress, loss of meaning in life, and negative feelings are highlighted.

Introducción: La menopausia es una etapa, si bien normal, de profundos cambios en la vida de la mujer; la transición hacia la menopausia impone un reto al profesional de enfermería, encaminado a promover la salud, facilitar la transición y apoyar la búsqueda de solución a las necesidades que se presentan. Objetivo: El presente estudio está orientado a comprender los significados de la menopausia en mujeres de Armenia, Quindío, Colombia. Metodología: Se utilizó un enfoque cualitativo, fenomenológico e interpretativo desde la teoría de las transiciones de Meléis. Se efectuaron entrevistas a profundidad a seis mujeres de Armenia, previo consentimiento informado, con muestreo intencional, grabación y diario de campo; la información se analizó con apoyo de la base de datos ATLAS.ti, mediante codificación, categorización inductiva, triangulación y contestación con la literatura. Resultados: Se encontró una percepción negativa de la menopausia por sensación de fogajes, desasosiego, depresión y disfunción sexual; para los síntomas recurren a terapias complementarias y medicación, al respecto, algunas refieren una experiencia tranquilizadora y agradable. Urgen redes de acompañamiento en salud para promoción, prevención y apoyo familiar. Las participantes solicitan programas educativos específicos desde edades tempranas. Discusión: Los resultados coinciden con la literatura en cuanto a la experiencia de las participantes y la necesidad de apoyo y orientación. Desde la teoría de Meléis, la transición es de desarrollo, organizacional, con patrones múltiples, simultáneos y relacionados. La experiencia fue sentida y vivida negativamente, se necesitan espacios de análisis, reflexión y acompañamiento desde edades tempranas, para deconstruir el concepto de menopausia y climaterio como problema de salud, y abordarlo como evento vital y de renacimiento, como apertura a una nueva forma de vivir, con estilos de vida saludables. Conclusiones: Se concluye que la menopausia es percibida y experimentada como una etapa de ansiedad, desasosiego, tristeza y desesperanza, por el poco acompañamiento, deficiente educación y preparación de la mujer; las mujeres adultas "menopaúsicas" son poco reconocidas, rechazadas, y muchas veces solo toleradas por personas cercanas. Urgen redes de acompañamiento en salud.
Introduction: Menopause is a stage, although normal, of profound changes in a woman's life. The transition to menopause imposes a challenge on the nursing professional, aimed at promoting health, facilitating the transition and supporting the search for a solution to the needs that arise. Objective: The present study is aimed at understanding the meanings of menopause in women from Armenia, Quindio Department, Colombia. Metodology: A qualitative, phenomenological and interpretative approach was used, based on Meleis's theory of transitions. In-depth interviews were carried out on six women from Armenia, with prior informed consent, with intentional sampling, recording, and field diary; the information was analyzed with support of the ATLAS.ti database, through coding, inductive categorization, triangulation, and comparison with the literature. Results: A negative perception of menopause was found due to hot flashes, restlessness, depression and sexual dysfunction; for the symptoms they resort to complementary therapies and medication, as a result, some report a calming and pleasant experience; health accompaniment networks are urgently needed for promotion and prevention, and family support. They request specific educational programs from an early age. Discussion. The results coincide with the literature regarding the experience of the participants and the need for support and guidance. From Meleis's theory, the transition is developmental, organizational, with multiple, simultaneous and related patterns. The experience was felt and lived negatively, spaces for analysis, reflection and accompaniment are needed from an early age, to deconstruct the concept of menopause and climacteric as a health problem, and address it as a vital and rebirth event, as an opening to a new way of living, with healthy lifestyles. Conclusions: It is concluded that the menopause is perceived and experienced as a stage of anxiety, restlessness, sadness and hopelessness, due to the lack of accompaniment, poor education and preparation of women; "menopausal" adult women are little recognized, rejected and, many times, only tolerated by close people. Health support networks are urgently needed.

La filosofía fenomenológica de Martin Heidegger parte de considerar la existencia y la necesidad de un fenómeno desde las cosas mismas y trata de buscar cómo se dan los acontecimientos en el día a día, y se generan nuevos conocimientos a partir de la experiencia vivida y los significados que le otorga cada ser. Las mujeres que padecen cáncer de mama tienen una experiencia única, pues padecen una enfermedad en la que experimentan emociones, así como cambios físicos, de salud y en las relaciones con las personas que las rodean. Por lo tanto, esta es una reflexión basada en una extensa revisión de la literatura científica. El objetivo fue describir el significado de la experiencia vivida para la mujer con diagnóstico de cáncer de mama a partir de la perspectiva fenomenológica de Heidegger. La revisión de la literatura y la comparación con la perspectiva fenomenológica de Heidegger hacen llegar a una reflexión sobre la percepción de la mujer en la experiencia de atravesar por la enfermedad, al tener impactos en la identidad propia, los cuales emergen sobre las dimensiones del ser psicológico, físico, social y espiritual. A partir de la literatura encontrada, una de las dimensiones más afectadas es la dimensión del ser espiritual, debido a su enfoque estrecho con la religiosidad, por lo que esta es un área de oportunidad en enfermería para poder comprender en todos los sentidos a las mujeres que pasan por el proceso de cáncer de mama.
Martin Heidegger's phenomenological philosophy starts from considering the existence and necessity of a phenomenon from the things themselves, trying to find how events occur in everyday life, generating new knowledge from the lived experience and the meanings given by each being. Women suffering from breast cancer have a unique experience, since they are coping with a disease and they are experiencing emotions, physical and health changes, as well as modifications in the relationships with people surrounding them. Therefore, this is a reflection based on an extensive review of the scientific literature. The aim of this paper was to describe the meaning of the lived experience for women diagnosed with breast cancer based on Heidegger's phenomenological perspective. The review of the literature and the comparison with Heidegger's phenomenological perspective leads to a reflection on the perception of women in the experience of going through the disease, having impacts on self-identity, emerging these on the dimensions of the psychological, physical, social and spiritual being. Based on the literature we found, one of the most affected dimensions is the spiritual being dimension, due to its close approach with religiosity, being this an area of opportunity in nursing to understand in all senses all women who go through the process of breast cancer.

El objetivo fue conocer el vínculo entre la vivienda, la salud y la calidad de vida en un contexto de regeneración de viviendas sociales, a partir de las experiencias y percepciones de sus habitantes, indagando en aquellos mecanismos que sostienen este vínculo antes de la regeneración, y en aquellos elementos derivados de la regeneración de la vivienda que se materializan en mejoras en la calidad de vida y potencialmente en la salud. Entre 1980 y los 2000, Chile enfrentó un masivo déficit cuantitativo de vivienda mediante una política que entregó más de 120.000 departamentos de vivienda social de bajo costo. Hoy en día, miles presentan severos problemas de habitabilidad, generando consecuencias negativas para sus habitantes, su salud y bienestar. Buscando dar solución al deterioro de la vivienda y el espacio público, el Ministerio de Vivienda y Urbanismo desarrolló el Programa de Regeneración de Conjuntos Habitacionales. El proyecto RUCAS busca evaluar los efectos del programa en la salud y evidenciar el impacto de intervenciones como éstas en poblaciones vulnerables en Latinoamérica. Se presentan resultados de 8 entrevistas y 2 grupos focales realizados en un conjunto de vivienda social en proceso de intervención en Viña del Mar. Usando análisis de contenido discursivo, los resultados muestran que la mala calidad material de la vivienda se percibe como dañino para la salud. La vivienda regenerada en tanto, promueve la recuperación y re-apropiación de los espacios y sus usos, la sociabilidad, nuevas prácticas saludables, sentimientos positivos y bienestar psicológico, emergiendo el componente psicosocial de la relación de las personas con su vivienda. Se concluye que la regeneración de la vivienda tiene el potencial de beneficiar a la salud física y mental por mecanismos tanto directos, devenidos de la materialidad renovada, como indirectos relacionados con las prácticas y experiencias en el espacio habitado.
The objective was to understand the link between housing, health and quality of life in a context of social housing regeneration, through the experiences and perceptions of its inhabitants, exploring the mechanisms that sustain this link before regeneration, and those elements derived from housing regeneration that result in improvements in quality of life and potentially in health. Between 1980 and the 2000s, Chile faced a massive quantitative housing deficit through a policy that delivered more than 120,000 low-cost social housing apartments. Today, thousands present severe habitability problems, generating negative consequences for their inhabitants, their health and well-being. Seeking to solve the deterioration of housing and neighborhoods, the Chilean Ministry of Housing and Urbanism developed the Housing Complex Regeneration Program. The RUCAS project seeks to evaluate the effects of the program on health and to assess the impact of interventions such as these on vulnerable populations in Latin America. We present results of 8 interviews and 2 focus groups conducted in a social housing complex in process of intervention in Viña del Mar. Using discursive content analysis, results show that the poor material quality of housing is perceived as harmful to health. Regenerated housing, on the other hand, promotes the recovery and re-appropriation of spaces and their uses, sociability, new healthy practices, positive feelings and psychological well-being, bringing to the fore the psychosocial component of people's relationship with their house. It is concluded that housing regeneration has the potential to benefit physical and mental health through both direct mechanisms, derived from the renovated materiality, and indirect mechanisms related to the practices and experiences of the lived space.
O objetivo foi compreender a relação entre habitação, saúde e qualidade de vida em um contexto de regeneração da habitação social, com base nas experiências e percepções de seus habitantes, investigando aqueles mecanismos que sustentam esta relação antes da regeneração, e aqueles elementos derivados da regeneração que se materializam em melhorias na qualidade de vida e potencialmente na saúde. Entre 1980 e os anos 2000, o Chile enfrentou um enorme déficit habitacional quantitativo através de uma política que proporcionou mais de 120.000 moradias sociais de baixo custo. Hoje, milhares apresentam graves problemas de habitabilidade, gerando consequências negativas para seus habitantes, sua saúde e bem-estar. Em busca de uma solução para a deterioração da habitação e seus bairros, o Ministério da Habitação e Urbanismo do Chile desenvolveu o Programa de Regeneração Habitacional. O projeto RUCAS procura avaliar os efeitos do programa sobre a saúde e o impacto de tais intervenções sobre populações vulneráveis na América Latina. São apresentados os resultados de 8 entrevistas e 2 grupos focais realizados em um complexo habitacional social no processo de intervenção em Viña del Mar. Usando análise discursiva de conteúdo, os resultados mostram que a má qualidade do material da habitação é percebida como prejudicial à saúde. A moradia regenerada, por outro lado, promove a recuperação e reapropriação dos espaços e seus usos, a sociabilidade, novas práticas saudáveis, sentimentos positivos e bem-estar psicológico, emergindo o componente psicossocial da relação das pessoas com sua moradia. Conclui-se que a regeneração habitacional tem o potencial de beneficiar a saúde física e mental tanto através de mecanismos diretos, decorrentes da materialidade renovada, como de mecanismos indiretos relacionados às práticas e experiências no espaço vivido.

Abstract Objective: To analyze nursing professionals' reports on their lived experience in the care provided to hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Materials and Methods: This is an exploratory study using a qualitative analysis, which included twelve nurses and eight nursing technicians from a public hospital in Brazil, conducted between December 2020 and February 2021. The inclusion criteria were professionals who provided care to COVID-19 patients in emergency, intensive care, and inpatient units and who had at least one year of experience in the institution. The interviews were analyzed through content and similarity analysis that generated a similarity tree; the Reinert method was used for thematic categories. Results: Most participants were female, with a mean age of 34.15 years and 4.85 years of experience. From the analysis, the words 'patient,' 'to stay,' and 'to find' were the most frequent, and for the categories, they were "nursing professionals' feelings regarding the pandemic," "the nurses' role and work with the multi-professional team in the care provided to patients with COVID-19," "precautions with the care provided to patients with COVID-19," and "nursing professionals' concern that their family members may become ill during the pandemic." Conclusions: The nursing staff is predominantly composed of females and, in their reports on the lived experience of providing care to patients with COVID-19, they pointed out that concern and fear were prevalent, with the family being one of the protective factors to withstand the risks of working against something novel that may result in death.

Introduction: Forty percent of premature infants are discharged from neonatal intensive care units, and their families face an unexpected situation. Raising a premature or low-birthweight baby using the kangaroo method at home is not an easy task, and, for mothers, it involves extreme care and is a challenge that will be compensated with the infant's growth. Objective: To describe the cultural meaning assigned by mothers to the care they give to their preterm or low-birthweight infants with home oxygen therapy. Methods: Qualitative study with an ethnographic approach conducted with mothers enrolled in an outpatient kangaroo program in a hospital in Bogotá, Colombia. Eight mothers participated in the research after informed consent and institutional approval were obtained. Thick description or data saturation was achieved with 21 interviews recorded at the participants' homes and transcribed verbatim. For data collection and analysis, Madeleine Leininger's theory of culture care diversity and universality and James Spradley's in-depth interview were used. Results: T h e m e a n i n g assigned by the mothers to the care given to their children with home oxygen therapy is described in nine domains: oxygen as a vital necessity, cultural knowledge, knowledge and education about oxygen therapy administration at home, paperwork and paperwork difficulties, mother's trips with a preterm infant on home oxygen therapy, hygiene and dressing, increased costs, father and other family member involvement, and maternal emotion alterations. Cultural beliefs and practices immersed in the three types of cultural care (preservation, accommodation, and repatterning) are also identified from the analysis of Madeleine Leininger's theory. The technological, religious and physiological, social, cultural, political, economic, and educational factors that influence the culture of the mothers interviewed are evident. Conclusions: In the mothers' minds, caring for their children receiving home oxygen therapy means "being vigilant," and they interpret oxygen as a vital necessity. It is necessary to include the topic in undergraduate and graduate nursing programs and to conduct research on the subject.

BACKGROUND: Menopause connects a biological event with social representations related to aging AIM: To assess the meaning of menopause in a group of Chilean women attending primary health care. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Secondary analysis of a descriptive qualitative study of in-depth interviews to explore the meaning of menopause in fifteen women aged 55 to 71 years who experienced menopause between 2 and 29 years before. Data were collected using the method proposed by the Grounded Theory. Guba's criteria of scientific rigor were used. RESULTS: Relational analysis shows that menopause divides the life cycle of women into two stages related with the possibility of having children, which is heavily influenced by the cultural significance of menopause. CONCLUSIONS: Women perceive that menopause is a natural stage and that it is the end of a period focused on tasks related to reproduction and motherhood. However, that "normality" includes a suffering process, loaded with negative cultural beliefs about menopause passed down for generations.
