    Purpose: This observational study carried out to determine the incidence of poor nutritional status and symptom burden in children undergoing chemotherapy treatment. Methods: The research data collected from 187 children between the ages of 7-18 at pediatric hematology -oncology units in Izmir. The data of the study collected with Screening Tool for Risk of impaired Nutritional Status and Growth (STRONGkids), and the Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale (MSAS). Results: Patients reported a mean (SD) of 14.1 (8.1; range, 1-30) symptoms, and 43.9% were underweight. According to the STRONGkids, 62% had a high risk for malnutrition. The incidence of all symptoms increased as the Z-score of the patients worsens. There was a significant positive correlation between mean symptoms and STRONGkids malnutrition risk score, and Z-score (p < .001). Conclusion: Most of the patients were at high risk of malnutrition. It observed that chemotherapy treatment led to malnutrition. The patients with high risk for malnutrition according to the STRONGkids and severe malnutrition according to the Z-score experienced more symptoms.

    Prenatal Attachment and Mental Well-Being Among Expectant Fathers Amidst COVID-19: A Cross-Sectional Study
    (Springernature, 2023) Akdag, Berhan; Erdem, Dilek; Ipekten, Funda; Alpay, Emre Han; Yardimci, Figen; Bektas, Murat
    Background The COVID-19 pandemic has posed significant threats to global physical and mental health, notably impacting the psychological management of pregnancy. The mental health of parents plays a critical role in fostering the emotional bond with their unborn child, referred to as prenatal attachment. Despite the significance of this bond, research has primarily concentrated on maternal outcomes, often neglecting the paternal aspect during the pandemic. This study investigates the correlation between coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) risk perception and paternal prenatal attachment, further exploring the mediating role of well-being within this association. Methods A total of 141 expectant fathers attending the gynecology and obstetrics outpatient clinic with their partners were recruited. Participants completed measures including the Paternal Antenatal Attachment Scale (PAAS), the World Health Organization Well-being Index (WHO-5), and the COVID-19 Perceived Risk Scale (CPRS). Results Data analysis revealed a significant negative correlation between COVID-19 risk perception and well-being (f3 =-.34, p < .001). There was a positive correlation between well-being and prenatal attachment (f3 = .37, p = .002). The prenatal attachment was also positively linked to COVID-19 risk perception (f3 = .20, p = .047). Furthermore, well-being mediated the relationship between COVID-19 risk perception and prenatal attachment. Conclusion The findings underscore the potential of the COVID-19 risk perception to disrupt the prenatal attachment process for expectant fathers by interfering with psychological well-being. However, it can also promote prenatal attachment through various mechanisms. Consequently, acknowledging and understanding the experiences of fathers during pregnancy is of paramount importance. Future longitudinal studies are necessitated to examine the parent-child relationship dynamics that have evolved under the influence of the pandemic.

    AIM: This research is to analyze the psychometric feature of the Perceived Inventory of Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing in the Turkish version. METHOD: A methodological study type was employed. Five hundred one nurses participated in the research, carried out between November 2021 and February 2022. The measures included a sociodemographic data collection tool and the Perceived Inventory of Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing-Turkish. To determine the psychometric properties of the scale, the validity study included content and construct validity analyses, and the reliability study was conducted using item analysis and split-half and Cronbach's alpha coefficients RESULTS: The Turkish adaptation of the Perceived Inventory of Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing comprised 18 questions collected under four sub-factors, explaining 56.08% of the total variance. According to the confirmatory factor analyses results, fit values were determined as comparative fit index = 0.94, normed fit index = 0.91, Trucker-lewis index = 0.92, goodness of fit index = 0.90, root mean square error of approximation = 0.070, incremental fit index = 0.94, chi(2) = 439.052, df = 126, p < .001, and chi(2)/df = 3.485. The total instrument and its sub-factors had Cronbach's alpha figures of 0.92 and >0.70, respectively. CONCLUSION: The Turkish form of the Perceived Inventory of Technological Competency as Caring in Nursing showed adequate psychometric properties. The essential contribution of this study was that it provided a reliable and valid inventory to evaluate nurses' perceived technological competence as caring for the Turkish version.
