Background and Purpose: The exact prevalence of sleep disorders following stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) remains unclear. We aimed to determine the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing, insomnia, periodic leg movement during sleep, and restless leg syndrome following stroke or TIA in acute, subacute, and chronic phases and examine the moderating effects of patient characteristics (eg, age) and methodological features (eg, study quality) on the prevalence. Methods: We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis. Embase and PubMed were searched from inception to December 18, 2019. We included 64 047 adults in 169 studies (prospective, retrospective, case-control, and cross-sectional study designs) reporting the prevalence of sleep disorders following stroke or TIA. Results: In the acute phase, the overall prevalence of mild, moderate, and severe sleep-disordered breathing was 66.8%, 50.3%, and 31.6% (95% CIs, 63.8–69.7, 41.9–58.7, and 24.9–39.1). In the subacute phase, the prevalence of mild, moderate, and severe sleep-disordered breathing was 65.5%, 44.3%, and 36.1% (95% CIs, 58.9–71.5, 36.1–52.8, and 22.2–52.8). In the chronic phase, the summary prevalence of mild, moderate, and severe sleep-disordered breathing was 66.2%, 33.1%, and 25.1% (95% CIs, 58.6–73.1, 24.8–42.6, and 10.9–47.6). The prevalence rates of insomnia in the acute, subacute, and chronic phases were 40.7%, 42.6%, and 35.9% (95% CIs, 31.8–50.3, 31.7–54.1, and 28.6–44.0). The pooled prevalence of periodic leg movement during sleep in the acute, subacute, and chronic phases was 32.0%, 27.3%, and 48.2% (95% CIs, 7.4–73.5, 11.6–51.7, and 33.1–63.5). The summary prevalence of restless leg syndrome in the acute and chronic phases was 10.4% and 13.7% (95 CIs, 6.4–16.4 and 2.3–51.8). Age, sex, comorbidities, smoking history, and study region had significant moderating effects on the prevalence of sleep disorders. Conclusions: Sleep disorders following stroke or TIA are highly prevalent over time. Our findings indicate the importance of early screening and treating sleep disorders following stroke or TIA.

The prevalence of dental caries among children in Indonesia remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to provide an updated assessment of this prevalence while also investigating the influence of patient characteristics and methodological factors. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis, including searches of PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase from inception to August 24, 2023. We included 8840 participants in 27 studies reporting the prevalence of dental caries among Indonesian children. The overall prevalence of dental caries was 76 % (95 % confidence interval: 71%–81 %). Studies in which decay-missing-filled teeth (DMFT) criteria were used to diagnose dental caries were significantly more prevalent than studies using non-DMFT criteria (78 % vs. 64 %, P < 0.05). No significant moderators were identified for the study subgroup based on study origin (Jakarta vs. non-Jakarta) or comorbidity status (comorbidity vs. no comorbidity). Owing to incomplete reporting of variables, metaregression analysis could not be conducted for continuous variables, such as age and male percentage. The prevalence of dental caries among Indonesian children remains notably high, showing consistency across Jakarta-based studies and non-Jakarta studies. Initiating dental caries prevention and health promotion campaigns is imperative, focusing on the critical importance of early detection.

Background: The hospitalization of children during the COVID-19 pandemic has affected their physical and mental health. Pediatric nurses have faced challenges in providing high-quality nursing care for children and their families. However, the pediatric nursing care recommendations for COVID-19 patients in the hospital setting remain unclear. The current scoping review provides recommendations for nursing interventions for pediatric COVID-19 patients in the hospital setting.Methods and findings: The selected articles containing management and nursing recommendations for COVID-19 that have occurred in pediatric patients ages 0–19 years old. A search strategy was developed and implemented in seven databases. We included peer-reviewed articles that reported observational or interventional studies, as well as policy papers, guides or guidelines, letters and editorials, and web articles. A total of 134 articles and other documents relevant to this review were included. We categorized the results based on The Nursing Intervention Classification (NIC) taxonomy which consists of six domains (e.g., Physiological: Basic); eleven classes (e.g., Nutrition Support); and eighteen intervention themes (e.g., Positioning, Family Presence Facilitation, Family Support, and Discharge Planning).Conclusion: Apart from the intervention of physical problems, there is a need to promote patient- and family-centered care, play therapy, and discharge planning to help children and families cope with their new situation.
