The purpose of this study was to clarify the attributes of family spirituality and the influencing factors of its decline. Methods: Regarding family spirituality, 1) a literature search was conducted using PubMed and reviews of 20 English-language articles;and 2) semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 Japanese families having elderly members in the household. Data triangulation was performed for both, and a directed content analysis was conducted using Hohashi’s Concentric Sphere Family Environment Theory as the framework. Results: Attributes of family spirituality included 21 categories, such as “I think that my family exists for my children and grandchildren.” Factors influencing the decline in family spirituality included 20 categories in total, including 6 categories of risk/causal/promoting factors such as “lack of caring for family members”;11 categories of preventive/inhibitory/suppression factors such as “healthcare professionals not being close to the family”;and three categories of context-sensitive factors such as “death of a family member.” Conclusions/Implications for Practice: Family intervention requires nurses to understand the attributes of family spirituality and to control the influencing factors of a decline in family spirituality. Through such efforts, families will be able to discover the meaning of the existence of the family and maintain and improve their well-being.展开更多

Whereas clinically based reports on offspring of Holocaust survivors pointed to intergenerational transmission of traumatic experiences, more controlled studies did not find much psychopathology, except when second generation subjects were confronted with life-threatening situations. Recently, a number of studies have used attachment theory as a conceptual framework for exploring the intergenerational effects of traumatic experiences. The purpose of this study is to understand the way in which the process of trauma transmission can be investigated from an attachment perspective. The hypothesis is that the intergenerational transmission of the ＂shadow＂ of the Holocaust has weighed on the ＂second generation＂, through the mechanism of ＂frightening/frightened＂ responses given by the parent. Participants to the study, 26 Jewish Italian offspring of Concentration Camps survivors and 26 Jewish Italian offspring of Jewish parents who did not experience the Concentration Camps, were interviewed with the AAI （Adult Attachment Interview） in order to detect thought processes indicative of unresolved traumatic experiences. The distribution of the main classifications for the AAI for both the EG （experimental group） and the comparison groups did not show a significant difference between the two groups. Moreover the EG is not strongly ＂traumatized＂. These results are in-line with others similar researches. The data suggests that the presence of mediating factors may mitigate the trans-generational impact of trauma.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Obesity is an important factor to cause the obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Higher body mass index(BMI)often results in more severe OSAHS.Currently,the common measures for controlling the weight mainly include diet control,increase exercise and so on.Motivational interviewing(MI)could explore the patient’s internal state and make the patient realize his/her ambivalence,resulting in the change in his/her behavior.This process emphasizes respecting the patient’s autonomy.AIM To evaluate the effect of MI on the weight control of patients with OSAHS.METHODS A randomized controlled study was conducted in 100 obese OSAHS patients undergoing surgical treatment at Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University.The patients were divided into an intervention group and a control group,with 50 cases each.The control group was given routine health education after the operation;in addition to the regular health education,the intervention group was given MI according to a predetermined plan.Obesity-related indicators,postoperative complications,and the sleep status of both groups were evaluated before and 6 mo after the intervention.RESULTS Patients in the intervention group had significantly improved body weight,BMI,and waist and neck circumferences compared with patients in the control group(P<0.05).Regarding complications at 6 mo after operation,the incidence of cough and reflux in patients in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).In addition,the Epworth Sleepiness Scale and Self-Rating Scale of Sleep scores of patients in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the control group,and the sleep status of patients in the intervention group was improved(P<0.05).CONCLUSION MI intervention has a significant advantage over postoperative routine health education.It can greatly change the lifestyle,further control the postoperative weight,reduce the occurrence of complications,improve the quality of sleep,and improve long-term postoperative efficacy in OSAHS patients.
