  • Characteristics of Pain and Factors Associated with Fatigue among First-Diagnosed Solid Malignancy Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study
    Rajesh Kumar, Aarti Rana, Alka Pasi, Parveen Parveen, Priyanka Malhotra
    Indian Journal of Palliative Care, 2026
    Objectives: Cancer-related pain and fatigue are prevalent and debilitating symptoms experienced by most cancer patients. Chronic fatigue in cancer patients leads to sleep disturbances and reduces performance status, especially during treatment. This study aims to explore characteristics of pain and factors associated with fatigue among patients with solid malignancies diagnosed for the 1 st time. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional, prospective survey purposively included 141 patients with solid malignancies presenting for the 1 st time at a tertiary care hospital. Information was collected using a structured pre-tested socio-demographic and clinical profile, the McGill pain questionnaire and the multi-dimensional fatigue inventory-20. Relevant descriptive and inferential statistics were used to generate the results. Results: In this study, 141 patients (male 66, female 75, mean age 49.87 [standard deviation = 10.45]) were included. The most frequent pain descriptor terms were ‘pricking’ ( n = 49, 34.8%), ‘sharp’ ( n = 39, 27.7%), ‘shooting’ ( n = 33, 23.4%), ‘stabbing’ ( n = 29, 20.6%), ‘pulling’ ( n = 27, 19.1%) and ‘suffocating’ ( n = 25, 17.7%). Severe clinical insomnia was presented in 14.9% of patients. Findings reported that advanced age, informal education, distant metastasis, no pain medications, sleep disturbances and poor performance status were associated with higher fatigue in patients. Conclusion: Patients with cancer reported a multifaceted nature of pain. Cancer stage, tumour extension, performance status and sleep disturbances are among the factors associated with higher fatigue among patients. The use of evidence-based pain and fatigue management protocols, along with targeting sleep quality and performance status, may help improve the care and well-being of cancer patients.
  • Mapping LGBTQ + affirmative competencies of undergraduate medical and nursing trainees in an Indian tertiary care centre
    Ruba Sharma, Rajarajeswari Kuppuswamy, Rajesh Kumar, Meenakshi Khapre
    Discover Public Health, 2025
    Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer (LGBTQ) individuals face distinct healthcare needs and are vulnerable to health disparities. Inadequate knowledge and exclusionary attitudes among future nursing and medical professionals can limit care quality. This study aimed to assess knowledge and attitudes toward LGBTQ healthcare among nursing and medical students at a Tertiary Care Centre in Northern Himalayan India. In this exploratory survey, we recruited 275 nursing and medical students (nursing = 123, medical = 152) using a stratified proportionate random sampling technique. We used a structured and validated knowledge questionnaire and the Attitudes toward LGBTQ Patients Scale (ATPLS) and relevant socio-demographic details to collect information. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. The mean age of the participants was 21.0 years (SD = 1.08). More than half of the medical students (61.4%) were aware of LGBTQ healthcare concerns, compared to only 38.6% of nursing students ( p = 0.031). Significant associations with knowledge of LGBTQ healthcare concerns were observed for academic stream ( p = 0.031), year of study ( p = 0.007), exposure to the LGBTQ community ( p < 0.001), and personal contact with LGBTQ individuals ( p = 0.024). Binary logistic regression analysis identified being in the fourth year of study (OR = 2.58, 95% CI: 1.235–5.374, p = 0.012) and personally knowing LGBTQ individuals (OR = 0.511, 95% CI: 0.276–0.946, p = 0.033) as significant predictors of knowledge regarding LGBTQ healthcare concerns. Overall, students have fairly adequate knowledge and feel comfortable providing care for LGBTQ persons. The findings highlight the need to add more structured and comprehensive curriculum content on LGBTQ + care and ensure wide clinical exposure for more LGBTQ + affirmative medical care.
  • Lived experiences, health-seeking behaviour, quality of life, and self-esteem among transgender women: a mixed methods study from the Northern Himalayan region
    Aanchal Thapa, Rajesh Kumar, Rajarajeswari Kuppuswamy, Mukesh Bairwa, Anindya Das
    BMC Public Health, 2025
    BACKGROUND: Transgender people are more likely to experience heightened risks of physical and psychological distress and tend to report a poorer quality of life compared to the general population. This study aimed to determine the quality of life and self-esteem, health-seeking behaviour, and to explore the lived experiences among transgender women. METHODS: Using the snowball sampling technique, 73 transgender women were included in this mixed-methods study. Quantitative data were collected through the Short-Form-12 (SF-12) and the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSES). Maximum variation sampling was employed to select 10 participants for the qualitative component, aiming to gain in-depth insights into their personal experiences and health-seeking behaviours. Appropriate descriptive and inferential statistics were applied for analysis. A thematic analysis approach was used to represent qualitative findings. RESULTS: The mean age of the participants was 30.93 (SD = 4.70) years. Findings revealed that participants had poor mental (Mean µ = 38.80) and physical (Mean µ = 38.08) health. The cohort demonstrated a notably high level of self-esteem (Mean µ = 30.93 ± 4.70). A substantial proportion (76.7%) of participants experienced discrimination or mistreatment while seeking healthcare services, stating unfavorable experiences (19.2%) and strongly unsatisfied (5.5%), whereas more than half (56.2%) avoided giving any opinions. From the qualitative analysis, three major themes emerge: discovering my true identity as transgender person, survival in a world of discrimination, violence, and trauma, and struggle with economic, professional, and legal challenges. CONCLUSIONS: In our study, participants reported lower mental and physical health, experienced discrimination, and had negative perceptions while accessing health services. The study carries important implications for the development of inclusive and high-quality healthcare services to ensure transgender people's access to and utilization of healthcare.
  • Experiences and Well-Being of Early-Career Trauma Nurses in India: A Mixed Methods Study
    Rajesh Kumar, Antima Soni, Tarannum Ahmed, Kalpana Beniwal
    Journal of Trauma Nursing, 2025
    BACKGROUND: Trauma nursing is fast-paced and high-pressure work that can affect nurses’ physical and mental health. However, these effects remain unexplored among novice trauma nurses in a newly established trauma center in India. OBJECTIVE: To examine relationships between professional quality of life, sleep disturbances, anxiety, and resilience and to explore the experiences of novice trauma nurses in a newly established trauma center in India. METHODS: This sequential mixed-methods study was conducted between April and June 2024 in a newly established trauma center in India. A purposive sample of 80 nurses was surveyed using a demographic questionnaire, the Brief Resilience Scale, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, the Insomnia Severity Index, and the Professional Quality of Life Scale. Nine nurses were interviewed to explore their trauma experiences. The analysis included descriptive and inferential statistics, bootstrap-based mediation testing, and thematic content analysis. RESULTS: A total of 80 nurses completed the survey (response rate: 67.8%) with a mean age of 27.7 years (standard deviation [SD] = 2.89) and average years of trauma experience of 2.08 years (SD = 1.93). Higher compassion satisfaction correlated with fewer sleep disturbances (r = −.23, p = .037). Burnout positively correlated with anxiety (r = .24, p = .033) and sleep disturbances (r = .34, p = .023), and negatively with nurses’ resilience (r = −.12, p = .049). Professional quality of life significantly correlated with resilience (r = .18, p = .048). Resilience mediated the relationship between anxiety and both burnout (β = .24, bootstrap confidence interval [BCI] = 0.04, 0.46, p = .041) and secondary traumatic stress (β = .24, BCI = 0.03, 0.52, p = .029). Qualitative analysis revealed three major themes: personal and professional adaptation to trauma life, adverse physical and psychological issues, and challenges faced in trauma care. CONCLUSION: Our findings highlight the adverse impact of trauma nursing on sleep, resilience, anxiety, and professional quality of life among novice nurses in a newly established Level I trauma center in India. Targeted interventions are required to enhance resilience and mitigate the impact of caring for trauma patients.
  • Effect of cognitive behavior therapy on abstinence among healthy smokers: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
    Rajesh Kumar, Priyanka Malhotra, Vishwas AS, Kalpana Beniwal, Gopal Singh Charan
    Osong Public Health and Research Perspectives, 2025
    Objectives: The objectives of this review and meta-analysis were twofold: first, to critically evaluate the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)-based interventions relative to standard care or control conditions in promoting smoking abstinence at the end of treatment, and second, to determine abstinence rates at 3 and 6 months of follow-up.Methods: A comprehensive search of electronic databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, Embase, and ClinicalTrials.gov, was conducted for randomized controlled trials published from 2001 to September 2024. Studies evaluating the effect of CBT on abstinence rates among healthy smokers (aged ≥12 years) were included and analyzed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.Results: Out of 1,514 study records screened, 7 studies (comprising 17 arms and 1,438 participants) met eligibility criteria for inclusion in the final analysis. The pooled analysis revealed that CBT significantly improved smoking abstinence rates, demonstrating a fourfold increase in effectiveness compared to controls (odds ratio [OR], 4.04; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.73–5.99; I2=19%; p&lt;0.00001). Additionally, CBT significantly impacted smoking cessation at 3-month follow-up (OR, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.11–2.38; I2=0%; p=0.01) and 6-month follow-up (OR, 2.19; 95% CI, 1.59–3.00; I2=0%; p&lt;0.00001).Conclusion: CBT has demonstrated efficacy in facilitating smoking abstinence, particularly immediately after treatment, with sustained but diminished effects over time. However, robust conclusions on the efficacy of CBT require further studies involving larger sample sizes, diverse geographical regions, and longer follow-up periods.

    Journal of Education and Health Promotion, 2025
    Healthcare professionals in emergency departments (EDs) navigate multifaceted challenges, including strenuous environments and complex situations inherent to this high-pressure setting. This research examines the dynamics of emergency medicine, highlighting issues such as ED overcrowding, resource constraints, the emotional and ethical dilemmas of end-of-life care, and the implications of integrating advanced technologies like Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). The study paves the way for potential policy reforms, educational advancements, and administrative strategies to enhance healthcare delivery in emergencies by analyzing these challenges in detail. We used thorough review methodology to analyze global evidence from 2002 to 2023, systematically searching databases like MEDLINE, Web of Science, ProQuest, and Google Scholar with a blend of search terms, Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), refining the search strategy with Boolean operators “AND” and “OR” to improve search results. A PRISMA flow diagram aided the careful selection of studies, while Zotero-6 helped remove duplicates. This collaborative process pinpointed key areas of interest, such as workload, burnout, ethics, and technology in emergency care, ensuring comprehensive review. We focused on including peer-reviewed English articles from the last twenty years, covering review articles, original research, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses. We excluded unpublished theses and nonrelevant studies. This approach provided detailed overview of the challenges and complexities characterizing the emergency care landscape, suggesting ways to enhance practice and policy.
