IntroductionPancreatic cancer is a malignant disease with one of the highest cancer-specific mortality rates. Coping with it probably differs from other malignant diseases. This scoping review was intended to explore and characterise academic literature related to the coping in patients with pancreatic cancer.MethodsEight databases were searched for primary and secondary studies and reviews reporting on coping with pancreatic cancer (adenocarcinoma) in adults in English or German language, regardless of publication date or study design, which were then analysed and summarised by narrative synthesis.ResultsOf 1472 publications identified, 9 articles and book contributions published from 1989 to 2020 in the USA, Europe and Australia met the inclusion criteria. The two main aspects covered were the confrontation with coping tasks, and the reciprocally associated coping with these challenges. In particular, the coping tasks revealed some pancreatic cancer-specific features, such as an increased incidence of depression and anxiety or certain digestive problems, whereas applying of coping strategies seems to be more like the coping behaviours known from the literature for other severe or cancer diseases.ConclusionsPatients with pancreatic cancer experience various health issues and face various quality of life changes and coping tasks. Disease-specific contextual factors, usually consisting of late diagnosis at an advanced stage, rapid progression and often poor prognosis, as well as disease-specific challenges are major differences compared with other malignancies or serious illnesses. However, the coping strategies applied do not seem to differ in principle. Currently, no pancreatic cancer-specific coping model exists.

COVID-19 has impacted every aspect of life around the world. Nursing education has moved classes online. Undoubtedly, the period has been stressful for nursing students. The scoping review aimed to explore the relevant evidence related to stressors and coping strategies among nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic. The scoping review methodology was used to map the relevant evidence and synthesize the findings by framing the research question using PICOT, determining the keywords, eligibility criteria, searching the CINAHL, MEDLINE, and PubMed databases for the relevant studies. The review further involved study selection based on the PRISMA flow diagram, charting the data, collecting, and summarizing the findings. The critical analysis of findings from the 13 journal articles showed that the COVID-19 period has been stressful for nursing students with classes moving online. The nursing students feared the COVID-19 virus along with experiencing anxiety and stressful situations due to distance learning, clinical training, assignments, and educational workloads. Nursing students applied coping strategies of seeking information and consultation, staying optimistic, and transference. The pandemic affected the psychological health of learners as they adjusted to the new learning structure. Future studies should deliberate on mental issues and solutions facing nursing students during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract Migrant domestic workers have become a major international target population for issues of human rights. However, little is known about the stressors, problems, and coping strategies surrounding their health issues internationally. A scoping review identified 26 sources matching selection criteria through a systematic search on 10 databases with publications from January 1995 to December 2019. Analysis revealed that stressors to health included abuse, poor health services accessibility, ongoing financial hardship despite demanding working conditions and social isolation. Several physical and mental health problems were identified for which migrant domestic workers largely depended on social network and religion to cope with stressors and health problems. Marginalization in health and social care system was evidenced in various countries that formal health and social care for migrant domestic workers was lacking. Survey on health problems of migrant domestic workers and provision of formal support to them present a significant service gap.

ObjectivesTo collate and synthesise available literature on burnout and compassion fatigue (CF) among organ and tissue donation coordinators (OTDCs) and to respond to the research question: what is known about burnout and CF among OTDCs worldwide?DesignScoping review using Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for scoping reviews.Data sourcesMedline, EMBASE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, LILACS, PTSpubs and grey literature (ResearchGate, OpenGrey, Organ Donation Organization (ODO) websites, open access theses and dissertations) up to April 2020.Study selectionStudies reporting aspects of burnout and CF among OTDCs, including risk and protective factors.Data extractionTwo reviewers independently screened the studies for eligibility and extracted data from chosen sources using a data extraction tool developed for this study; NVIVO was used to perform a qualitative directed content analysis.ResultsThe searches yielded 741 potentially relevant records, of which 29 met the inclusion criteria. The majority of articles were from the USA (n=7, 24%), Canada (n=6, 21%) and Brazil (n=6, 21%), published between 2013 and 2020 (n=13, 45%) in transplant journals (n=11, 38%) and used a qualitative design approach (n=12, 41%). In the thematic analysis, we classified the articles into five categories: (1) burnout characteristics, (2) CF characteristics, (3) coping strategies, (4) protective factors and (5) ambivalence.ConclusionWe identified aspects of burnout and CF among OTDCs, including defining characteristics, demographic predispositions, protective factors, coping strategies, precursors, consequences and personal ambivalences. Researchers described burnout and CF characteristics but did not use consistent terms when referring to CF and burnout, which may have hindered the identification of all relevant sources. This gap should be addressed by the application of consistent terminology, systematic approaches and appropriate research methods that combine quantitative and qualitative investigation to examine the underlying reasons for the development of burnout and CF among OTDCs.

This introduction to the thematic issue on housing and territorial stigma provides concise overviews of the concepts of stigma, housing stigma, and territorial (or neighborhood) stigma, while tracing back current research on these topics to the pioneering work of Erving Goffman and Loic Wacquant. In doing this, we place particular attention on social responses to, and coping strategies with, stigma, especially various forms of stigma resistance. Finally, in brief summaries of all articles in the thematic issue, we emphasize their shared themes and concerns.

ABSTRACT Objective: to map the recommendations of the coping strategies for violence against children, adolescents and women in the context of social isolation due to Covid-19. Method: a scoping review according to the Joanna Briggs Institute, through a research strategy carried out in the gray literature by the CAPES Portal and in the following databases: SCIELO, LILACS, PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Institutional Repository for Information Exchange of the Pan American Health Organization. The analysis of the identified material was carried out by three independent reviewers. The extracted data were analyzed and synthesized in narrative form. Results: of the 526 studies found, 59 were kept for review and their content was summarized in six categories: 1) prevention; 2) identification and intervention; 3) continued care; 4) care for the safety and mental health of the professionals; 5) intersectoriality/interdisciplinarity; and 6) special care for vulnerable populations. Conclusion: the services must guarantee continuous, intersectoral and safe care, especially in the context of mental health, as well as community awareness must be promoted. Health professionals must be sensitive and alert to signs of violence, intervening immediately and connected to the safety network.
