Attempted Suicide Is Independently Associated with Increased In-Hospital Mortality and Hospital Length of Stay among Injured Patients at Community Tertiary Hospital in Japan: A Retrospective Study wit…
Suicide is an increasingly important public healthcare concern worldwide. Studies examining the effect of attempted suicide on clinical outcomes among patients with trauma are scarce. We conducted a retrospective cohort study at a community emergency department in Japan. We included all severely injured patients with an Injury Severity Score > 15 from January 2002 to December 2021. The primary outcome measure was in-hospital mortality. The other …
Post-Disaster Community Transition of Psychiatric Inpatients: Lessons from the Fukushima Nuclear Accident
Pre-disaster family visits and post-evacuation return to Fukushima among psychiatric inpatients evacuated to out-of-area hospitals after the nuclear accident
Objective: This study aimed to elucidate the effects of pre-evacuation family hospital visits on post-evacuation returns to Fukushima Prefecture (hometown) among psychiatric inpatients who mandatorily evacuated to hospitals outside the prefecture because of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident. Method: Of the inpatients in Fukushima, 44 were admitted to a hospital in the nearby Soso district on March 11, 2011, and were there…
Public opinion in Japanese newspaper readers’ posts under the prolonged Covid-19 infection spread 2019–2021: Contents analysis using Latent Dirichlet Allocation
During the COVID-19 pandemic, information on what people are interested in and what they are disseminating can be an important public health resource. Most studies on public opinion during the pandemic have focused on social networking services in the context of the early phases of the pandemic or on a short-term basis; research on public opinion outside of social networking services that consider long-term changes has not been conducted. To exam…
Post-evacuation return of psychiatric hospital inpatients evacuated to hospitals outside the Fukushima prefecture after the nuclear accident: A Retrospective Cohort Study
BACKGROUND: Post-evacuation return after mandatory hospital evacuation due to complicated disasters is often overlooked and not well-discussed. AIMS: In this study, we explored the factors which are related to the ease or difficulty of the post-evacuation return to Fukushima prefecture of psychiatric inpatients who had been evacuated to hospitals outside the prefecture because of the Great East Japan Earthquake (GEJE) and subsequent Fukushima Dai…
The Systematic Workplace-Improvement Needs Generation (SWING): Verifying a Worker-Centred Tool for Identifying Necessary Workplace Improvements in a Nursing Home in Japan
This study developed and tested a new measurement instrument, the Systematic Workplace-Improvement Needs Generation (SWING), to identify workplace-improvement needs. The participants were 53 workers in a Japanese nursing home for the elderly. The respondents used the SWING questionnaire to self-generate five 'cues' they considered important to improve the workplace. The workers determined each cue's sufficiency level and weight balance (importanc…
Determinants of the evacuation destination for psychiatric hospital inpatients following the Fukushima nuclear disaster
Discovery and Revitalization of “Feeling of Hometown” from a Disaster Site Inhabitant's Continuous Engagement in Reconstruction Work: Ethnographic Interviews with a Radiation Decontamination Worker Ov…
After hometown loss due to the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant accident, many radiation decontamination workers started to engage in the reconstruction of their hometown. However, little is known regarding the meaning of experience of engaging in such work. We describe the process of such experience through a series of ethnographic interviews over 5 years with a radiation decontamination worker. The process was classified into the following three p…
Increasing Disaster Medical Assistance Teams’ Intent to Engage with Specific Hazards
To ensure human resource availability for a smooth response during various types of disasters, there is a need to improve the intent of those involved in responding to each hazard type. However, Disaster Medical Assistance Team personnel's intent to engage with specific hazards has yet to be clarified. This study therefore aimed to clarify the factors affecting Disaster Medical Assistance Team members' ( n = 178) intent to engage with each type o…

An operation leader (OL) of radioactivity decontamination workers is required by law to have accurate knowledge of occupational health management (OHM) such as working environment management, control of operations, and health management as a field supervisor in Japan. The purpose of the current study is to examine the association between anxiety over radiation exposure and the possession/acquisition of the OHM knowledge required for OLs. In this …
