  • Sediment discharge from Greenland's marine-terminating glaciers is linked with surface melt
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: Nature Communications. - 2041-1723. ; 15:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Sediment discharged from the Greenland Ice Sheet delivers nutrients to marine ecosystems around Greenland and shapes seafloor habitats. Current estimates of the total sediment flux are constrained by observations from land-terminating glaciers only. Addressing this gap, our study presents a budget derived from observations at 30 marine-margin locations. Analyzing sediment cores from nine glaciated fjords, we assess spatial deposition since 1950. A significant correlation is established between mass accumulation rates, normalized by surface runoff, and distance down-fjord. This enables calculating annual sediment flux at any fjord point based on nearby marine-terminating outlet glacier melt data. Findings reveal a total annual sediment flux of 1.324 + /- 0.79 Gt yr-1 over the period 2010-2020 from all marine-terminating glaciers to the fjords. These estimates are valuable for studies aiming to understand the basal ice sheet conditions and for studies predicting ecosystem changes in Greenland's fjords and offshore areas as the ice sheet melts and sediment discharge increase.

  • Monitoring persons’ rights to equal care : registered nurses’ experiences of caring for people with mental ill-health and somatic comorbidity in psychiatric outpatient care
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: Issues in Mental Health Nursing. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 0161-2840 .- 1096-4673.
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Persons with severe mental ill-health die early from preventable physical ill-health. Registered nurses in psychiatric outpatient care play a key role in improving persons’ physical health, and it is important to examine how they view their responsibility, their experiences of care, and the obstacles they meet in providing person-centred care. The purpose of this study was to explore registered nurses’ experiences of caring for persons with mental ill-health and somatic comorbidity in psychiatric outpatient care, using qualitative content analysis to analyze data from semi-structured interviews. The results show that these nurses monitored the person’s right to equal care, embraced the whole of the persons suffering, and dealt with unclear boundaries in care. This highlights the unique role that registered nurses play in psychiatric outpatient care via their ability to interpret symptoms and find ways to adapt care based on persons’ needs. Registered nurses consider physical health in all care and provide a link between psychiatric and somatic care. Together with mental health nurses at primary health care centers, they are key in reducing persons’ suffering. There is a need for structural and functional changes in line with person-centred care including collaboration both within and outside healthcare organizations.

  • Digital exercise interventions for improving measures of central obesity : a systematic review
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Public Health. - : Springer Nature. - 1661-8556 .- 1661-8564. ; 65:5, s. 593-605
  • Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Objectives: We aimed to systematically review the potential benefits of digital exercise interventions for improving measures of central obesity including visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and anthropometric surrogates for VAT in overweight or centrally obese adults aged 18 or over.Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in three databases up until March 2020 (PROSPERO registration nr CRD42019126764).Results: N = 5 studies including 438 participants (age 48–80) with body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m2 met the eligibility criteria and were included. The duration of the interventions ranged from 8 to 24 weeks. No study measured the primary outcome VAT, although in N = 4 studies, waist circumference (WC) decreased by between 1.3 and 5.6 cm in the intervention groups.Conclusions: This systematic review shows that there is no evidence for the effects of digital exercise on VAT, although digital exercise may decrease WC. These findings highlight the need for additional randomized controlled trials to confirm the findings with respect to WC, and to further investigate the effects of digital exercise on VAT. Together, this may have important implications for reducing the burden of physical inactivity and obesity.

  • Web-based exercise versus supervised exercise for decreasing visceral adipose tissue in older adults with central obesity : a randomized controlled trial
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: BMC Geriatrics. - : BioMed Central. - 1471-2318 .- 1471-2318. ; 20:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular disease and increases with age. While supervised exercise (SE) may be an effective approach, web-based exercise (WE) have other advantages such as being more readily accessible. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of WE on VAT, body composition and cardiometabolic risk markers in centrally obese older adults and compared the effects of WE to SE. We also explored the feasibility of WE.METHODS: In a randomized controlled trial conducted in Umeå, Sweden during January 2018 - November 2018, N = 77, 70-year-old men and women with central obesity (> 1 kg VAT for women, > 2 kg for men) were randomized to an intervention group (n = 38) and a wait-list control group (n = 39). The intervention group received 10 weeks of SE while the wait-list control group lived as usual. Following a 10-week wash-out-period, the wait-list control group received 10 weeks of WE. The primary outcome was changes in VAT. Secondary outcomes included changes in fat mass (FM), lean body mass (LBM), blood lipids, fasting blood glucose. Additionally, we explored the feasibility of WE defined as adherence and participant experiences.RESULTS: WE had no significant effect on VAT (P = 0.5), although it decreased FM by 450 g (95% confidence interval [CI], 37 to 836, P < 0.05). The adherence to WE was 85% and 87-97% of the participants rated aspects of the WE intervention > 4 on a scale of 1-5. Comparing SE to WE, there was no significant difference in decrease of VAT (Cohen's δ effect size [ES], 0.5, 95% CI, - 24 to 223, P = 0.11), although SE decreased FM by 619 g (ES, 0.5, 95% CI, 22 to 1215, P < 0.05) compared to WE.CONCLUSIONS: Ten weeks of vigorous WE is insufficient to decrease VAT in centrally obese older adults, but sufficient to decrease FM while preserving LBM. The high adherence and positive experiences of the WE intervention implies that it could serve as an alternative exercise strategy for older adults with central obesity, with increased availability for a larger population.TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03450655), retrospectively registered February 28, 2018.

  • A recipe for thriving in nursing homes: A meta-ethnography
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Journal of Advanced Nursing. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 0309-2402 .- 1365-2648. ; 77:6, s. 2680-2688
  • Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Aim: To explore contributors for thriving in nursing homes by evaluating, analysing and synthesizing peer‐reviewed qualitative literature on the topic.Background: Thriving is a positive life‐world concept that has been explored by several qualitative studies; however, descriptions of thriving and contributors to thriving have not been compared or contrasted among different studies and contexts, nor have they been reviewed and synthesized.Design: Qualitative meta‐ethnography.Data sources: Four electronic databases were searched in October 2019, with sources published between 2000 and 2019 included.Review methods: Sources of peer‐reviewed literature that employed qualitative methods to explore thriving in nursing homes were evaluated. In total, 1,017 sources were screened at title‐level, 95 advanced to abstract‐level review and 11 were assessed at full‐text level. Each source was evaluated by two researchers independently in relation to methodological quality and relevance to the study aim. Themes pertaining to thriving in nursing homes were extracted, interpreted and synthesized.Results: In total, seven sources of peer‐reviewed literature were included. Two main themes illustrating the contributors to thriving were identified: ingredients for thriving (subthemes: personal contributors and social contributors) and environment for thriving (subthemes: spacial contributors and societal contributors).Conclusion:Contributors to thriving in nursing homes include personal attributes, relationships with others, the lived environment and societal structures. Thriving for older people could thereby be defined as a holistic concept denoting lived experiences of situated contentment. Future studies should explore different temporal facets of thriving in the nursing home setting.Impact: This meta‐synthesis proposes a ‘recipe’ for thriving as comprising the right ingredients and the right environment, determined by the preferred ‘taste’ of the individual person. The proposed definition and contributors illuminate thriving as a positive life‐world concept that is based on one's lived experiences and context.

  • Exploring changes to resident thriving and associated factors in Swedish nursing homes : a repeated cross-sectional study
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 0885-6230 .- 1099-1166. ; 37:6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • ObjectiveThis study aimed to explore changes to resident thriving in Swedish nursing homes over a 5-year period and describe changes in associated factors.MethodsCross-sectional data were collected from a randomised sample of Swedish nursing homes in 2013/2014 (baseline) and 2018/2019 (follow-up). Descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, and chi squared tests were used to statistically evaluate differences between the samples. Simple and multiple linear regression analyses were used to explore associations between thriving and the study variables.ResultsResident characteristics were relatively consistent between the full baseline (N = 4831) and follow-up (N = 3894) samples. Within a sub-sample of nursing homes that participated in both data collections mean thriving scores were found to have increased from 152.9 to 155.2 (p ≤ 0.003; d =0.09) and overall neuropsychiatric index scores had decreased from 16.0 to 14.3 (p ≤ 0.004; d =0.09), as had the prevalence of several neuropsychiatric symptoms. Thriving was found to have a positive association with the neuropsychiatric symptom of elation/euphoria, and negative associations with the symptoms of aggression/agitation, depression/dysphoria, apathy, and irritability.ConclusionsThe results show an increase in overall thriving scores and a decrease in overall neuropsychiatric scores between baseline and follow-up. This study confirmed associations between thriving and certain neuropsychiatric symptoms and established comparative knowledge regarding changes in resident thriving, characteristics, and symptom prevalence. These findings could inform future care and organisational policies to support thriving in nursing homes, particularly among residents at risk of lower thriving due to cognitive impairment or neuropsychiatric symptoms.

  • Illuminating Meanings of Thriving for Persons Living in Nursing Homes
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: The Gerontologist. - : Oxford University Press (OUP). - 1758-5341 .- 0016-9013. ; 60:5, s. 859-867
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Thriving has been described as a multidimensional concept that can be used to explore place-related well-being; however, there has been limited research into the meaning of thriving in aged care. This study aimed to illuminate meanings of thriving as narrated by persons living in nursing homes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Narrative interviews were conducted with 21 persons residing in a rural Australian nursing home. The interviews were audio-recorded, transcribed, and interpreted using a phenomenological hermeneutic approach. RESULTS: Meanings of thriving could be understood as: Striving toward acceptance of being in a nursing home while maintaining a positive outlook; Feeling supported and cared for while maintaining a sense of independence; Balancing opportunities for solitude and company while living with others; and, Feeling a sense of home while residing in an institutional environment. The meanings of thriving, as presented through the interpretive lens of Gaston Bachelard's "Poetics of Space," encompassed having access to literal, metaphorical, and symbolic doors, as well as having the freedom to open, close, and use these doors however the person wishes. DISCUSSION: Exploring meanings of thriving in nursing homes could contribute towards understanding and implementing positive life-world constructs in research and practice. These findings could be used to inform and enhance person-centered care practices by maximizing opportunities for persons residing in nursing homes to have options and choices, and the agency to make decisions where possible, in relation to their everyday care and living environment. © The Author(s) 2019.

  • “Life is for living” : exploring thriving for older people living in nursing homes
  • 2021
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Background: Demand for formal care in nursing homes has steadily increased in recent decades, prompting calls for exploration of health-promoting and salutogenic concepts that support people not only to survive in older age, but to thrive. The concept of thriving has been described as a holistic experience of place-related well-being resulting from interactions between the person and their lived-environment. However, detailed understandings of thriving among nursing home residents and staff are lacking, and little is known about the variables that influence thriving, how thriving is regarded outside of Scandinavia, or the extent to which thriving may change over time.Aim: The overall aim of this thesis was to explore meanings, expressions, measurements, and associations for thriving in nursing homes. Study I aimed to illuminate the meanings of thriving as narrated by persons living in an Australian nursing home. Study II aimed to explore how Australian nursing home staff recognise expressions of thriving among persons living in nursing homes. Study III aimed to further test and describe the psychometric properties and performance of the 32-item Thriving of Older People Assessment Scale (TOPAS) and to develop a short-form TOPAS. Study IV aimed to describe longitudinal changes in Swedish nursing home thriving over a five-year period and describe changes in associated factors. Methods: For studies I and II data were collected in the form of qualitative interviews with Australian nursing home residents (N=21; study I) and staff (N=14; study II). Qualitative data were analysed using phenomenological hermeneutical analysis and qualitative content analysis respectively. For studies III and IV cross-sectional baseline (i.e., 2013/2014) and follow-up (i.e., 2018/2019) data were collected from a nationally representative sample of Swedish nursing homes for the Swedish National Inventory of Care and Health in Residential Aged Care (SWENIS) study. The baseline SWENIS I sample consisted of 4,831 proxy-rated resident surveys from 35 municipalities (study III) and the follow-up SWENIS II sample consisted of 3,894 proxy-rated resident surveys from 43 municipalities (study IV). Quantitative data were analysed using descriptive statistics, validity testing, item response theory-based analysis, and simple linear regression.Results: The meanings of thriving for nursing home residents were understood as encompassing elements of acceptance, balance, and contentment in relation to the person’s living situation, as well as their social and physical environment (study I). These meanings were interpreted as having options and choices, and the agency to make decisions where possible, in relation to the care and living environment. Nursing home staff were found to recognise expressions of thriving through a combination of understanding, observing, and sensing (study II). Staff described recognising thriving through reflective assessment processes that involved comparing and contrasting their personal and professional interpretations of thriving with their overall sense of the resident. Psychometric testing of the 32-item and short-form versions of the TOPAS showed good validity and reliability to measure thriving among nursing home residents (study III). Population characteristics were relatively consistent between the SWENIS I baseline and SWENIS II follow-up samples (study IV). A sub-sample of nursing homes that participated in both baseline and follow-up data collections reported a statistically significant increase for thriving and a decrease in the prevalence of neuropsychiatric symptoms. Higher and lower thriving was associated with several neuropsychiatric symptoms.Conclusions: Thriving appeared to be a relevant and meaningful phenomenon with shared understandings among nursing home residents and staff, providing valuable support for the ongoing assessment and application of thriving in international and cross-cultural nursing home settings. The TOPAS appeared valid and reliable to facilitate proxy-rated measurement of thriving among nursing home residents, and the short-form TOPAS could have enhanced use for assessment of thriving in research and practice. Changes to the overall thriving scores between baseline and follow-up provides important information that may be used as a reference point for future measurements and comparisons of thriving and its associated variables over time. This thesis highlights the importance of considering the various experiences, perceptions, and interpretations of thriving if such a concept is to be effectively embedded in person-centred care, policy, and practice.
