AIM:This study aims to examine the impact of caring leadership on nurse caring behaviours, while testing the mediating role of general self-efficacy and the moderating role of emotional intelligence. DESIGN:A cross-sectional study. METHODS:A total of 517 clinical nurses from China were recruited. The Caring Assessment Tool-Administration, the General Self-Efficacy Scale, the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale, and the Caring Behaviors Inventory were used for data collection. Data were analysed using SPSS 26.0, including correlation analysis and moderated mediation analysis based on Model 4 and Model 5 of the PROCESS macro. RESULTS:Nurse caring behaviours were positively correlated with caring leadership, general self-efficacy, and emotional intelligence (r = 0.435, 0.511, and 0.639, respectively; all p < 0.001). Caring leadership was also positively correlated with general self-efficacy (r = 0.295, p < 0.001). General self-efficacy partially mediated the relationship between caring leadership and nurse caring behaviours, with an indirect effect value of 0.088, accounting for 27.1% of the total effect. Additionally, emotional intelligence significantly moderated the relationship between caring leadership and nurse caring behaviours (β = 0.005, p = 0.009). CONCLUSION:Caring leadership promotes nurse caring behaviours both directly and indirectly through general self-efficacy, and this effect is stronger among nurses with higher emotional intelligence. Healthcare institutions should therefore invest in developing caring leadership and in strengthening nurses' self-efficacy and emotional intelligence to sustain high-quality caring behaviours. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION:No patient or public contribution was involved in the design, conduct, analysis, or preparation of this study, as it focused solely on the professional perceptions of clinical nurses.
ObjectiveTo explore the lived experiences of social alienation among Chinese women with gynecologic malignancies and identify the meanings they attached to social withdrawal and reconnection.MethodsThis descriptive phenomenological study was conducted in a tertiary hospital in Hangzhou, China, in April 2025. Twelve women with histopathologically confirmed gynecologic malignancies were recruited through purposive sampling with maximum variation. Semi-structured face-to-face interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analyzed using Colaizzi’s seven-step phenomenological method.ResultsThree themes and eight subthemes were identified. Participants described withdrawing from others to protect a threatened identity, including concealing the illness to avoid attention and restricting daily movement and social contact. They also described living in a body that feels changed and exposed, reflected in physical exhaustion and functional limits, changes in appearance and anticipated judgment, and concerns about family reputation and financial strain. Finally, they expressed a desire for understanding and a return to normal life, including feeling misunderstood in relationships and work and seeking work, normality, and meaningful connection. Across accounts, social alienation appeared to arise from the interaction of symptom burden, visible treatment effects, anticipated social judgment, practical constraints, and limited opportunities for understanding and support.ConclusionSocial alienation among women with gynecologic malignancies is a multidimensional experience shaped by bodily change, social responses, and practical barriers to participation. Supportive care should include psychosocial assessment, family-informed communication, peer support, and individualized assistance with social and occupational reintegration.
ObjectiveThis cross-sectional study aimed to identify factors influencing patient delay in older adults with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) using Andersen’s Behavioral Model at a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province, China.MethodsA total of 153 older adults diagnosed with ACS who survived to hospital admission were included from January 2023 to June 2023. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine factors independently associated with a longer patient delay following symptom onset.ResultsThe median delay in seeking medical care was 100.00 min (55.00, 450.00 min). Female sex (odds ratio [OR] = 2.762, 95% CI: 1.067–7.153), advanced age (≥75 years; OR = 4.244, 95% CI: 1.519–11.859), diagnosis of unstable angina (OR = 3.430, 95% CI: 1.281–9.182), and history of diabetes (OR = 3.921, 95% CI: 1.364–11.273) were significant factors associated with prolonged patient delay. In contrast, attributing symptoms to cardiac disease (OR = 0.269, 95% CI: 0.088–0.823), engaging in consultation-seeking behavior following symptom onset (OR = 0.326, 95% CI: 0.124–0.856), and a history of heart disease (OR = 0.274, 95% CI: 0.095–0.790) were associated with reduced likelihood of delay.ConclusionTo reduce patient delay among older adults with ACS, it is important to improve their ability to recognize ACS symptoms, especially in female, older, and patients with diabetes, and those with cardiovascular risk factors but no prior cardiac diagnosis. Accessible consultations could support older patients in making quick decisions about care-seeking behavior.
PurposeThere are few reports on compliance with oral nutritional supplements (ONS) after surgery in hospitalized patients. This study aimed to investigate the compliance with ONS and its influencing factors after surgery in colorectal cancer patients.MethodsSTROBE checklist was used during the preparation of this paper. A total of 103 postoperative colorectal cancer patients were selected from November 2020 to April 2021 from the Department of Anorectal Surgery in our institution, which is a tertiary hospital in Hangzhou, China. The compliance with ONS was recorded by a self-record sheet, and sociodemographic and disease-related information of these patients was gathered through a self-designed questionnaire.ResultsThe overall ONS compliance rate of patients with colorectal cancer was 57.6%. Results of univariate analysis revealed that ONS compliance rate was related to sex, admission body mass index, abdominal distension, attitude towards ONS, and satisfaction with ONS. Multi-factor analysis showed that age, sex, and perceived benefits of nutrition therapy independently influenced the ONS compliance rate.ConclusionsThe postoperative ONS compliance rate of colorectal cancer patients needs to be further improved. Healthcare professionals should pay more attention to the postoperative ONS compliance and acknowledging the influence of age, gender, and attitudes towards ONS on ONS compliance. Notably, patients' perspectives towards ONS play a crucial and modifiable role in determining ONS compliance. Nurses ought to assist patients in cultivating a positive attitude towards ONS.Relevance to Clinical PracticeDosage form and delivery method are also influence factors that deserves further exploration in the future. Future research endeavours should endeavour to craft tailored, meticulous nutritional intervention strategies tailored to the diverse factors that influence ONS compliance, ultimately leading to enhanced ONS adherence. Our findings could serve as valuable evidence for the development of strategies aimed at enhancing ONS usage practices.
Background Cancer-related fatigue (CRF) has gained increased attention in the past decade but remains difficult to treat. It is a predictor of patients' overall health and quality of life (QoL). Therefore, controlling fatigue is important for patients with cancer. Objective The aim of this study was to test the effect of solution-focused therapy (SFT) in reducing CRF and improving QoL in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) undergoing chemotherapy. Methods A total of 124 patients with CRC undergoing chemotherapy were recruited and randomized to the SFT group or control group. Cancer-related fatigue was measured with the Cancer Fatigue Scale-Chinese version (CFS-C) at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Quality of life was measured with the Quality of Life Instruments for Colorectal Cancer Patients at baseline and 6 months. Results Of 124 patients, 119 (95.9%) were evaluable. The SFT group showed significantly lower Cancer Fatigue Scale-Chinese version scores than the control group in all subscales and the total scores at 3 months (P < .001). At 6 months, the SFT group had significantly lower scores in cognitive fatigue (P < .001) and total fatigue (P = .005). The CRF of the SFT group decreased in the first 3 months (P = .012) but increased at 6 months (P < .001). The SFT group had significantly higher scores in the physical and psychological domains and overall QoL (P = .002, P <.001, and P = .02) than the control group at 6 months. Conclusion Solution-focused therapy may decrease the CRF and improve QoL during chemotherapy for patients with CRC. Implication for Practice Solution-focused therapy can be implemented to relieve fatigue and improve QoL in patients with CRC.

AIM:To investigate the characteristics of workplace violence at primary hospitals in Southeast China and identify associated risk factors. DESIGN:A cross-sectional survey design was used for this work. METHODS:We distributed a workplace violence questionnaire among medical staff at primary hospitals in Southeast Zhejiang Province, China. The data were collected between December 2016 and December 2017. We analysed the categorical data by using the chi-square test and expressed it as frequencies. The risk factors were analysed by using multiple logistic regression analysis. RESULTS:Among the 2,560 questionnaires, 1,842 (71.9%) medical staff indicated that they had experienced workplace violence. Verbal assault was the most common type, followed by physical and sexual assault. Furthermore, gender, age, marital status, education, technical position and number of hospital beds' numbers were independent risk factors.
Purpose The aim of this longitudinal study was to analyze trends in fatigue among colorectal cancer patients during chemotherapy and examine the predictors of multidimensional fatigue. Methods A mixed sample of colorectal cancer patients who were receiving chemotherapy ( N = 200) was recruited in China. The patients completed the Cancer Fatigue Scale (CFS) at baseline (before chemotherapy) and after 3 and 6 months of chemotherapy. Repeated measures ANOVAs were conducted to evaluate the effect of time on the CFS score. The data on violations of the statistical assumptions (independence, normality, and sphericity) from the repeated measures ANOVAs were examined. Stepwise regression analyses were conducted to evaluate the associations of the potential predictor variables at baseline on the total fatigue score and subscale scores at follow-up. Results As chemotherapy progressed, significant increases in the three subscale scores and total scores were observed. Physical fatigue and total fatigue scores increased continuously during chemotherapy ( P < 0.001). However, affective fatigue and cognitive fatigue scores increased significantly in the first 3 months ( P < 0.001) and basically remained stable thereafter ( P > 0.05). Multiple stepwise regression was used to analyze the predictors. The results showed that the baseline fatigue subscale score was the strongest predictor of each dimension of fatigue. In addition, age affected physical fatigue, and monthly income and education affected cognitive fatigue. Conclusion Fatigue increased during chemotherapy. Early assessment and intervention may be better for controlling fatigue, especially in patients with higher baseline fatigue level, older age, and lower economic and educational levels.
