The Campbell collaboration (C2) is an international research network that produces and disseminates systematic reviews of the effects of interventions in education, criminal justice, and social welfare. It aims to generate the best research evidence to support policy and practice in order to bring about positive social change. This issue introduces the experiences of the author while taking part in the ninth annual Campbell colloquium, and tries to increase awareness about C2.
The worldwide shortage in the supply of donor organs and tissues is becoming more pronounced. Xenotransplantation may probably give the hope to overcome the problem ultimately. However, it gives rise to a number of social and ethical issues, among them, the pig appears to be a likely source for human transplantation because it entails least social and ethical issues than no-human primates or other animals and the pig is similar to human in many aspects. The ethical and economic aspects must also be taken into consideration. Patient and his family’s privacy may be stripped because the patient has received a new or unusual treatment. Xenograftings will squint towards a kind of commodities which are different from human graftings and it is a challenge to human transplantation. Xenotransplantation brings a risk of creating new human disease and pandemic, so, it is necessary to formulate a policy and provide input to draft guidelines on the regulation of xenotransplantation.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the incidence of social isolation in Chinese elderly population. MethodsCNKI, WanFang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science and CENTRAL databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the incidence of social isolation in China from inception to May 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 15.1 software. ResultsA total of 20 studies involving 86 111 subjects were included. Meta-analysis results showed that the incidence of social isolation among the elderly in China was 27.54% (95%CI 22.15% to 57.74%). The results of subgroup analysis showed that gender, age, educational level, marital status, self-assessment of health, living style, year of publication, and region surveyed were all influential factors of the incidence of social isolation among the elderly in China. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the incidence of social isolation among the elderly in China is relatively high. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo investigate the current status and influencing factors of medical coping strategies in patients with gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST). MethodsA convenience sampling method was used to select 181 GIST patients who visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from September 2022 to May 2024. The fear of progression questionnaire (FoP), brief illness perception questionnaire (BIPQ), social support rating scale (SSRS), and medical coping modes questionnaire (MCMQ) were administered for data collection. Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis was conducted to explore the influencing factors of the three types of medical coping strategies. ResultsMultivariate linear stepwise regression analysis showed that patients without tumor metastasis (P=0.016) and high support utilization (P=0.006) had higher score of confrontation coping. Patients with high education level (P=0.016) and subjective support (P=0.002) had higher score of avoidance coping. Patients with lower fear of physical health deterioration (P=0.003), high education level (P=0.010) and subjective support (P=0.027) had higher score of submission coping.ConclusionsThe influencing factors of medical coping strategies in GIST patients are complex, involving social support, disease-related fear, tumor metastasis, and education level. Providing comprehensive GIST-related knowledge and information to patients may help establish correct health beliefs and attitudes.
ObjectiveTo explore the effect of spiritual care on improving the psychological stress levels of relatives of patients with terminal cancer.
