    Abstract: Objectives: To evaluate an interdisciplinary intervention program for older people with hip fracture in Taiwan. Design: Randomized experimental design. Setting: A 3,800‐bed medical center in northern Taiwan. Participants: Elderly patients with hip fracture (N=137) were randomly assigned to an experimental (n=68) or control (n=69) group. Intervention: An interdisciplinary program of geriatric consultation, continuous rehabilitation, and discharge planning. Measurements: Demographic and outcome variables were measured. Outcome variables included service utilization, clinical outcomes, self‐care abilities, health‐related quality‐of‐life (HRQOL) outcomes, and depressive symptoms. Results: Subjects in the experimental group improved significantly more than those in the control group in the following outcomes: ratio of hip flexion 1 month after discharge ( P= .02), recovery of previous walking ability at 1 month ( P= .04) and 3 months ( P= .001) after discharge, and activities of daily living at 1 month ( P= .01) and 2 months ( P= .001) after discharge. Three months after discharge, the experimental group showed significant improvement in peak force of the fractured limb's quadriceps ( P= .04) and the following health outcomes: bodily pain ( P= .03), vitality ( P 〈 .001), mental health ( P= .02), physical function ( P 〈 .001), and role physical ( P= .006). They also had fewer depressive symptoms ( P= .008) 3 months after discharge. Conclusion: This intervention program may benefit older people with hip fractures in Taiwan by improving their clinical outcomes, self‐care abilities, and HRQOL and by decreasing depressive symptoms within 3 months after discharge.

    Abstract: Aims and objectives.  To explore the process of development of collaborative relationship between family caregivers of institutionalized elders with dementia and nursing home staff in Taiwan. Background.  Evidence suggests that family members are continuously involved in the lives of loved ones and have not given up their roles as caregivers after the institutionalization of a family member. Little is known, however, about how family caregivers develop a collaborative relationship with nursing home staff, particularly in Asian countries. Design and methods.  Grounded theory methodology was used. Data were collected via interviews and observations from 11 family caregivers of patients who were suffering from dementia and living in an institution for persons with dementia in northern Taiwan. Data were analysed by constant comparative analysis. Results.  Findings revealed that ‘institutional social penetration’ was the process most used by family caregivers to achieve an harmonious collaborative relationship with the nursing home staff. Institutional social penetration is a dynamic process, which includes three components: self‐disclosure, evaluation of care and penetration strategies. Family caregivers, who had developed a ‘socially penetrating’ relationship with the nursing home staff, were more likely to disclose information in more breadth and depth, to receive positive care evaluations and to adopt multiple effective penetration strategies. Conclusions.  Institutional social penetration between family caregivers and nursing home staff can sensitize healthcare providers to meet the family's needs during the placement of their loved one and provide a basis for developing intervention strategies. Relevance to clinical practice.  Findings of this study may help healthcare providers to understand the ways in which collaborative relationships develop between the families of elders with dementia and nursing home staff. Interventions can be developed to facilitate self‐disclosure of both the family members and nursing home staff through timely feedback and familiarising family caregivers with different penetration strategies.

    Abstract: Human speech contains not only the linguistic content but also important information about speaker identity and affect. This study employed whole-head magnetoencephalography (MEG) to examine how brain activities were modulated by selective listening of phoneme, affect and gender information with different degrees of task difficulty. The participants were 10 male Japanese adults with normal hearing. The words were ‘right’ and ‘light’ recorded from native English speakers and binaurally presented at 50dB SL. The participants were asked to judge congruency between the visual prime and the spoken word for each trial. The experiment started with a familiarization phase, which was immediately followed by the test phase with 200 trials in each condition. Behavioral results confirmed an increasing order of difficulty from gender to affect to phoneme conditions. Significant priming effects were found only for the affect and gender conditions. In line with the behavioral results, the MEG data revealed distinct patterns of hemispheric and regional involvement and neural oscillatory activities for evaluating the cross-modal congruency in the three conditions. These results demonstrate the neural dynamics and complexity in processing linguistic and paralinguistic information in spoken words with differential influences of language experience.

    Abstract: La thrombectomie mécanique : pas de différence entre les sexes en ce qui concerne les indicateurs de temps et les résultats obtenus en Saskatchewan. Contexte et but : Dans de nombreuses études, on fait état de flux de travaux prolongés en phase préhospitalière et hospitalière et de résultats moins favorables chez les femmes que chez les hommes après un accident vasculaire cérébral (AVC) ischémique aigu en général, et notamment après un traitement endovasculaire (TEV). L’étude, fondée sur un registre provincial exhaustif au Canada, avait donc pour but d’examiner les différences de soins donnés aux hommes et aux femmes traités par TEV après un accident vasculaire cérébral aigu, sur une période de 5 ans. Méthode : Des données cliniques recueillies sur tous les patients soumis à un TEV après un AVC ischémique aigu, entre janvier 2017 et décembre 2022, en Saskatchewan, ont été inscrites dans le registre OPTIMISE au Canada, puis complétées par d’autres données sur des patients, provenant de sources administratives. Il y a eu ensuite comparaison des données en ce qui concerne les caractéristiques de base, les mesures du temps de transport et les résultats techniques du TEV, entre les hommes et les femmes. Résultats : Dans l’ensemble, 303 patients ont subi un TEV entre 2017 et 2022, soit 144 femmes (47,5 %) et 159 hommes (52,5 %). Les femmes étaient significativement plus âgées que les hommes (âge médian : 77,5 ans [intervalle interquartile {II} : 66-85] contre [c.] 71 [59-78]; p 〈 0,001), tandis que les hommes souffraient davantage d’occlusions intracrâniennes de la carotide interne (48/159 [30,2 %] c. 26/142 [18,3 %] ; p = 0,03). Les données relatives au temps écoulé entre le dernier moment où la personne avait été vue en bonne santé et l’arrivée au centre de soins intégrés des AVC (temps médian : 232 min [II : 90-432] chez les femmes c. 230 min [90-352] chez les hommes), au temps écoulé entre l’arrivée au centre de soins intégrés et la reperfusion (temps médian : 108 min [88-149] chez les femmes c. 102 min [77-141] chez les hommes), aux résultats de la reperfusion (reperfusion réussie : 106/142 [74,7 %] chez les femmes c. 117/158 [74,1 %] chez les hommes) et au score de Rankin modifié au bout de 90 jours ne présentaient pas de différence significative, et ce, malgré le rajustement des variables de base dans les analyses plurifactorielles. Conclusion : Si les femmes soumises à un TEV en Saskatchewan étaient en moyenne plus âgées que les hommes, le temps écoulé avant le traitement était aussi court que celui enregistré chez les hommes, et les résultats cliniques et techniques obtenus dans les deux groupes étaient comparables.

    Abstract: To report the moderating effects of work‐related conditions and interactive family‐care‐giving variables, including mutuality and preparedness, on caregiver role strain and mental health for family caregivers of patients with dementia. Background Few studies have examined the interrelationships among caregivers' working conditions, care‐giving dynamics and caregiver well‐being. Design Cross‐sectional, correlational study. Methods Data were collected by self‐completed questionnaires from 176 primary family caregivers of patients with dementia in T aiwan from May 2005–January 2006. Caregiver role strain and mental health were analysed by multiple regressions using a hierarchical method to enter independent variables and two‐ and three‐way interaction terms after controlling for caregiver age and gender, employment status, and work flexibility and the simple effect of each independent variable. Results More preparedness was associated with less role strain for family caregivers with less work/care‐giving conflict. More care‐giving demand was associated with poorer mental health only for caregivers with low work/care‐giving conflict and with average and low preparedness, but not high preparedness. For family caregivers with less work/care‐giving conflict, more preparedness decreased role strain and maintained mental health even when care‐giving demand was high. Conclusion These results provide a knowledge base for understanding complex family caregiver phenomena and serve as a guide for developing interventions. Future studies with longitudinal follow‐ups are suggested to explore actual causal relationships.

    Abstract: To test how the three components of professional commitment (i.e. affective, continuance and normative professional commitment) are associated with nurse‐reported patient‐centred care and care quality. Background Patient‐centred care and care quality are the two critical care outcomes. However, no study has yet examined how the three components of professional commitment are related to nurse‐reported patient‐centred care and care quality, showing a research gap. Design This study adopted a two‐wave design (first wave in 2017 and second wave in 2019), which is known to reduce the possibility of reverse causality, and which was conducted in a large hospital in Northern Taiwan. Methods Proportionate random sampling was used. Full‐time nurses were surveyed, while nursing students, interns, nurse practitioners and nursing supervisors were excluded. The first wave included 524 nurses, and 438 nurses were retained in the second wave. We used confirmatory factor analysis to verify the psychometric properties of the measures. Structural equation modelling was used to implement hypothesis testing. We used the Professional Commitment Scale of Meyer et al. ( Journal of Applied Psychology , 1993, 78 , 538), the Patient‐Centered Care Scale of Laird‐Fick et al. ( Patient Education and Counseling , 2011, 84 , 90) and the Care Quality Perceptions Scale of Teng et al. ( Journal of Nursing Management , 2010, 18 , 275). The STROBE statement was chosen as the EQUATOR checklist. Results Affective professional commitment was positively associated with nurse‐reported patient‐centred care ( β  = .18, p  = .002 and .01), which was positively associated with nurse‐reported care quality ( β  = .85, p   〈  .001). Affective and normative professional commitment were also positively associated with nurse‐reported care quality ( β  = .17, p   〈  .001). Conclusions Our findings offer insights for nursing managers that nurses’ affective and normative professional commitment could help upgrade care outcomes. Hospital managers should consider professional commitment as relevant to their workforce. Relevance to clinical practice Nursing managers could publicise reports documenting nurses’ significant contributions to public health. This could strengthen affective professional commitment among nurses.
