COVID-19 vaccines are crucial for achieving sufficient immunisation coverage to manage the pandemic, but vaccine hesitancy persists. This study aimed investigate prevalence and determinants of in adults parents vaccinating their children using an integrated social cognition model. A community-based cohort Singapore [N = 1623] completed a survey (wave 25) between June July 2021 which measured risk perceptions, distress, trust, vaccination beliefs, intentions/behaviours. Results indicated low...

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious threat to global health and diabetic foot ulcers (DFU) remains one of the most common complications DM1 affecting around 20 million people annually.2 DFUs are complex treat, take months or years heal, recurrence rates remain high up 40% within 1 year healing.3 People with at risk prolonged healing times hospitalisation, reduced quality life4, 5 higher five-year mortality rates.3 Moreover, DFU causal factor for 85% patients diabetes who subsequently undergo...

Cognitive impairment is common in haemodialysis patients and associated with adverse health outcomes. This may be due to cognitive impairments interfering daily functioning self-care, but evidence limited. cross-sectional study aims explore the interrelationships between cognition functional outcomes patients.

Objectives Cognitive impairments and cognitive complaints are commonly present in dialysis patients can affect clinical, functional, occupational, psychosocial well-being. It is important to screen for patients’ status as it offers a gateway specialty referral, prevention or rehabilitation programmes, personalisation of clinical care. The Patient’s Assessment Own Functioning Inventory (PAOFI) comprehensive questionnaire that assesses patient-reported difficulties memory, language,...

Theoretical models propose that attentional biases might account for the maintenance of social anxiety symptoms. However, previous eye-tracking studies have yielded mixed results. One explanation is existing quantify eye-movements using arbitrary, experimenter-defined criteria such as time segments and regions interests do not capture dynamic nature overt visual attention. The current study adopted Eye Movement analysis with Hidden Markov Models (EMHMM) approach eye-movement analysis, a...

Abstract Objectives Cognitive impairment is common in haemodialysis patients and associated with increased hospitalization mortality. However, subjective cognitive complaints (SCCs), the self‐experienced difficulties everyday activities, remain poorly understood. This study examined prevalence course of SCCs its longitudinal associations sociodemographic, clinical patient‐reported variables. Design Observational prospective baseline 12‐month follow‐up assessment. Methods Based on a validated...

Abstract Background Theories propose that interpretation biases and attentional might account for the maintenance of chronic pain symptoms, but interactions between these two forms in context are understudied. Methods To fill this gap, 63 participants (40 females) with without completed an bias task measures participants’ styles ambiguous scenarios a novel eye‐tracking where freely viewed neutral faces were given pain/health‐related labels (i.e. ‘doctor’, ‘patient’ ‘healthy people’). Eye...

Studies examining the effect of biased cognitions on later pain outcomes have primarily focused attentional biases, leaving role interpretation biases largely unexplored. Also, few studies examined pain-related cognitive in elderly persons. The current study aims to fill these research gaps.Younger and older adults with without chronic (N = 126) completed an bias task a free-viewing injury neutral scenes at baseline. Participants' intensity disability were assessed baseline 6-month...

Abstract Background Subjective cognitive complaints refer to self-experienced difficulties with everyday tasks. Although there has been a fair amount of research on impairments and in end-stage renal disease, the practical implications these remain unclear. The current study aims examine associations sociodemographic clinical variables, mood, as well key patient-reported outcomes, i.e., self-efficacy, self-management skills, treatment adherence. Methods A total 305 haemodialysis patients...

Few studies examining the effect of pain-related threat on eye movements have incorporated a measure interpretation bias. However, theories suggest that biases also play an important role in anticipation harm situations where pain could be imminent. The current study investigates association between and expectancies their associations with to imagery.Healthy adults' (N = 91) fear pain, emotional functioning were assessed prior manipulation they given either threatening or reassuring...

Cognitive impairment and cognitive complaints are highly prevalent in haemodialysis patients associated with adverse health outcomes. Currently, there is no established guideline on screening this population. Although neuropsychological tests the gold standard measure of cognition, they time-consuming require trained personnel. The Kidney Disease Quality Life Function subscale (KDQOL-CF), a self-administered questionnaire only three items, may be feasible alternative for busy renal settings....

AbstractAbstractThis paper outlines an experimental programme aimed at determining the mechanisms of salt removal from metallic surfaces by wind and rain. The provides data process understanding that will be integrated into a holistic model atmospheric corrosion. Experiments are reported in which fine crystals were deposited either wet (as droplets seawater) or dry onto surface. then placed tunnel loss was determined as function speed. In another experiment, motion simulated raindrops...

Abstract Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are one of the most prevalent and costly diabetes complications, associated with diminished quality life poor prognosis. Management DFUs relies heavily on patients' self‐care behaviour. This study aims to explore psychological determinants this important behaviour among primary care patients. A total 186 patients active self‐reported their illness perception, distress, self‐efficacy, Structural equation modelling was performed examine interrelationships...

Abstract Background Theories suggest that interpretation biases play a role in the aetiology of range psychopathology including depression, anxiety and psychosis. We evaluate psychometric properties an adapted version ambiguous scenario task (i.e., Interpretation Bias Task [IBT]) assesses benign negative interpretations four domains: immediate bodily injury; long-term illness; social rejection; and, performance failure. Methods The factor structure IBT was evaluated student sample (N = 237)...

Within the coronavirus-disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, disease-related information is omnipresent in media, whereas about how to manage pandemic less often covered. Under context where threat present, this study investigated whether and strength of efficacy framing (i.e., perspective adopted by a communicating text that emphasizes one's possibilities cope with an external threat) COVID-19-related news, as well its interaction trait health anxiety under COVID-19 context, related people's...
