Abstract Aim To investigate the alterations of functional brain activity and connectivity in female nurses working on long‐term shifts explore their correlations with work‐related psychological traits. Design An exploratory cross‐sectional study. Methods Thirty‐five (shift nurses) 35 fixed days (fixed were enrolled. After assessing traits, including burnout, perceived stress, anxiety, depression nurses, fractional amplitude low‐frequency fluctuations (fALFF) region interest (ROI)‐based (FC) analyses performed to differences spontaneous between these two groups nurses. Thereafter, parameters (fALFF FC) clinical metrics investigated among shift Results Compared had higher stress scores, lower fALFF right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC), left superior parietal lobule (SPL), bilateral anterior cingulate (ACC), superior/middle temporal gyrus, as well decreased FC dlPFC (the selected ROI) ACC, inferior frontal/orbitofrontal gyrus (IFG/IOFG), SPL, middle occipital (voxel‐level p < 0.001, cluster level 0.05, GRF correction). Correlation demonstrated that value was significantly correlated burnout anxiety dlPFC‐right SPL IFG/IOFG score ( 0.05). Conclusion Shift altered frontoparietal network, which provided objective visualised evidence clarify hazards work Patient or Public Contribution Seventy participated deeply subjects this These findings are expected draw managers' attention harmful influences

Effects of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Combined with Music Therapy on Brain Function and Mental Health of Patients with Aneurismal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Retrospective Study

Noise and Health, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 26(122), P. 259 - 265

Published: July 1, 2024

Background: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), which is widely used in clinical practice, aimed at improving nerve function impairment after brain injury. Meanwhile, the effects of music on are unclear. This retrospective study was conducted to explore application effect HBOT combined with patients suffering from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Methods: For this study, 130 aSAH were selected our hospital June 2021 2022. The divided into observation ( n = 70) and control 60) groups based whether they received therapy. Comparisons made general demographic data, blood flow rate median cerebral artery (MCA), vasospasm (CVS), National Institutes Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), activities daily living (ADL) score, Self-Rating Depressive (SDS), Anxiety (SAS) patients. Results: Baseline data between two showed no statistically significant difference P > 0.05). After management, group presented significantly lower SAS SDS scores < 0.05), MCA, CVS NIHSS higher ADL than Conclusions: combination can considerably improve neurological deficits, slow down arterial flow, promote recovery postoperative patients, anxiety depression patients’ ADL.
