Many people experience intense fear of COVID-19. The purpose of this study was to provide a comprehensive visual overview of the published literature from 2020 to 2022 assessing fear of COVID-19. From 2020 to 2022, we employed the Scopus database to conduct a bibliometric analysis. We used the VOSviewer program to perform the author co-citation analysis, Mapchart to produce a worldwide map, and Wordart to make a word cloud image. From the 1769 records examined, 1654 (93.50%) were articles, with English being the most common language (96.31%). From 2020 to 2022, annual citations experienced significant growth (R2 = 99.91%; p = 0.0195). The Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (INSERM, France) and China led in terms of publication output (n = 36; n = 255). M. D. Griffiths authored the highest number of articles (n = 21). The most active journal was the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (n = 146), and the most prevalent keyword was “human/s” (11.51%). This bibliometric analysis evaluates the quality of the research on fear of the pandemic and the crisis management of COVID-19, which can provide managers and researchers with crucial insights for future decision making.

Ensuring equity in cancer screening is recommended by the European Commission. Despite the fact that breast cancer screening is a free population-based program in Spain, there remains considerable variation in the adherence to screening rate among population groups. This study was designed to describe the adherence of breast cancer screening in women in Spain, to evaluate the evolution in the period from 2017 to 2020, and to determine the variables that influence choosing to undergo breast cancer screening. A nationwide cross-sectional study with 7220 females aged 50–69 years from the 2017 Spanish National Health Survey and the 2020 European Health Survey for Spain was performed. We investigated mammography uptake rates, with socio-demographic factors, lifestyle habits, and health-related characteristics as independent variables. Multivariable logistic regression was used to identify the associated factors of mammography adherence. Of the women, 78% had undergone mammography in the previous two years, and there was a significant decrease in the uptake rate for breast cancer screening from 2017 (81.23%) to 2020 (74.68%) (p < 0.001). Educational level, marital status, residential location, nationality, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and leisure-time physical activity were all associated factors of mammography uptake.

The psychological, physical and social well-being components may differ for cancer patients living in urban vs. rural zones. This study aimed to examine the common mental disorders (CMDs), functional limitation (FL) and perceived social support (PSS) of rural and urban Spanish cancer patients from 2006 to 2017, to compare sociodemographic variables, health-related determinants and use of healthcare resources and to identify which sociodemographic and health-related factors were related to CMDs, FL and PSS. We performed a cross-sectional study among cancer patients using data from the Spanish National Health Surveys (2006, 2011 and 2017). A total of 698 of the subjects resided in rural areas and 1824 in urban areas. Binary logistic and multiple linear regressions were performed to determine the factors related to CMDs, FL and PSS. Rural residents visited their general practitioners more frequently than the city dwellers (61.03% vs. 56.63%, p = 0.04). A decreased prevalence of CMDs was observed among urban individuals over time (2006: 39.13%, 2011: 38.87%, 2017: 34.30%; p for trend = 0.04). Among rural residents, FL was associated with age, educational level and self-perceived health status, while among city dwellers, PSS was linked to marital status, nationality, having chronic conditions and self-perceived health status.

Cervical cancer rates have declined in industrialized nations as a result of cytology screening programs. However, there are still sizeable differences in screening adherence in Spain. This study aimed to identify the prevalence of cervical cancer screening among women in Spain, to analyze trends in that prevalence from 2017 and 2020 and to identify socio-demographic, health, and lifestyle factors related with adherence to this screening test. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 13,619 women aged 25–65 who participated in the 2017 Spanish National Health Survey and the 2020 European Health Survey for Spain. We used logistic regression to examine the relationship between socio-demographic, health and lifestyle factors and cervical cancer adherence. The prevalence of adherence was 73.18%. Additionally, there was a significant decrease in cervical cancer screening uptake from 2017 and 2020 among women aged 25–44 years (2017: 77.80%, 2020: 75.20%, p = 0.02), but an increase in the age group of 45–65 years (2017: 68.93%, 2020: 72.39%, p < 0.01) and in foreigners (2017: 64.29%, 2020: 72.29%, p < 0.01). Screening for cervical cancer is related with age, educational level, social class, insurance status, visits to the family doctor, alcohol consumption and free time physical exercise.

Common mental disorders (CMD) are characterized by non-psychotic depressive symptoms, anxiety and somatic complaints, which affect the performance of daily activities. This study aimed to analyze prevalence of diet quality among adults with and without CMD from 2006 to 2017, to study the frequency of food consumption and diet quality according to mental status and age, and to determine which sociodemographic, lifestyle and health-related factors are associated with poor/moderate diet quality, according to mental status. A nationwide cross-sectional study was performed in adults with (n = 12,545) and without CMD (n = 48,079). The data were obtained from three Spanish National Health Surveys (2006, 2011/2012 and 2017). Two logistic regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with diet quality in people with and without CMD. Among those with CMD, the probability of having poor/moderate diet quality was significantly lower for overweight or obese people and those who took part in leisure-time physical activity. Among those without CMD, university graduates were less likely to have a poor/moderate diet quality. Good diet quality was observed more in older adults (≥65 years old) than in emerging (18–24 years old) or young adults (25–44 years old), regardless of mental status.

Certain conditions such as common mental disorders (CMDs), functional limitation (FL) and poor diet quality may affect the lives of individuals who suffer from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study sought to examine time trends in the prevalence of CMDs, FL and diet quality among male and female COPD patients living in Spain from 2006 to 2017 and to identify which factors were related to CMDs, FL and a poor/improvable diet quality in these patients. We performed a cross-sectional study among COPD patients aged ≥ 40 years old using data from the Spanish National Health Surveys conducted in 2006, 2011 and 2017, identifying a total of 2572 COPD patients. Binary logistic regressions were performed to determine the characteristics related to CMDs, FL and poor/improvable diet quality. Over the years of the study, the prevalence of FL among female COPD patients increased (p for trend <0.001). In addition, CMDs were associated to body mass index (BMI), educational level, physical activity, smoking status, occupation, chronic conditions and alcohol consumption; FL was related to age, living with a partner, educational level, physical activity and chronic conditions; and poor/improvable diet quality was associated to age, smoking status, BMI and physical activity.

Poor dietary practices are commonly reported in working populations from different economic sectors, resulting in increased absenteeism and a decrease in productivity. The aims of this study were to describe the frequency of food consumption and diet quality in workers aged 16 years from 2006 to 2017 in Spain and to evaluate the factors associated with diet quality. A nationwide cross-sectional study was carried out among workers using data from the Spanish National Health Surveys in 2006 (n = 11,068), 2011 (n = 7497) and 2017 (n = 8890). Sociodemographic, occupational, and health-related variables were used as well as diet quality data. A multiple linear regression was performed to determine the characteristics related to overall diet quality. The percentage of workers who consumed vegetables, at most, once or twice per week decreased from 2006 to 2017 (p < 0.001). A lower diet quality score was related to the consumption of tobacco and alcohol and being aged 25 years old, while a higher diet quality score was linked to being a woman, having Spanish nationality, receiving optimal perceived social support, being physically active in one’s main occupation, doing leisure-time physical activity, and the type of contract.

Objectives: this study evaluate the level of nursing professionalism perceived by students and teachers of the Grade of Nursing based on the uniform and visible body art and to determine the possible relationship between the so-ciodemographic characteristics of those students and teachers and the level of nursing professionalism perceived. Material and Methods: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out with a total of 248 adult respondents from the Faculty of Medicine and Nursing of the University of Cordoba, where images of a nurse wearing a white uniform with and without tattoos and the same nurse wearing a blue uniform with and without visible tattoos were compared through an ad-hoc questionnaire of sociodemographic variables and another one of perceived nursing professionalism. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. Results: a higher perception of nursing profes-sionalism was found for that professional dressed in a blue uniform and without visible tattoos (40.48 points). In addition, we found a higher level of professionalism in the women interviewed than in men, p=0.03. Conclusions: the participants give a higher degree of nursing professionalism to the professional without tattoos who, in addition, wears a blue uniform. It has also been demonstrated that sex is a sociodemographic factor that influences the perception of nursing professionals., Introducción.

Además, encontramos mayor nivel de profesionalidad en las mujeres entrevistadas que en los hombres (p=0,03). Discusión. Los participantes dan mayor grado de profesionalidad enfermera a aquella profesional sin tatuajes que, además, viste uniforme de color azul. Ha quedado demostrado también que el sexo es un factor sociodemográfico que influye en la percepción de los profesionales de enfermería.

Objectives. To know the level of the professional burnout’s dimensions of the faculty of the Faculty of Medicine and Nursing of the University of Córdoba. To study the possible relationship between sociodemographic and labor characteristics and the dimensions of professional burnout. Methods. Cross-sectional observational study in a final sample of 42 faculty. The sociodemographic and labor characteristics were collected using an ad-hoc questionnaire and the level of the three dimensions (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and personal fulfillment) of burnout was evaluated using the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. Results. In faculty, the mean of emotional exhaustion was 10.45 (8.32) points, of depersonalization was 2.64 (3.02) points and of personal fulfillment was 39.38 (7.59) points. No relationship was found between the sociodemographic and labor characteristics proposed and the dimensions of burnout, except the practice of physical exercise. The faculty who practiced physical exercise habitually presented the levels of emotional exhaustion increased by 8.34 points (p=0.007) and of personal fulfillment decreased by 6.36 points (p=0.03) with respect to those who did every day. Discussion. Emotional exhaustion and depersonalization levels were low, while personal fulfillment levels were high. This involves a low level of burnout. The only variable that shows a relationship with the dimensions of burnout is physical exercise. Those who do it regularly show higher emotional exhaustion and lower personal fulfillment compared to those who do it daily., Objetivos. Conocer el nivel de las dimensiones del desgaste profesional del profesorado de la Facultad de Medicina y Enfermería de la Universidad de Córdoba. Estudiar la posible relación entre variables de tipo sociodemográfico y laboral y las dimensiones del desgaste profesional. Metodología. Estudio observacional transversal. La muestra estuvo compuesta finalmente por 42 docentes. Se recogieron las variables sociodemográficas y laborales mediante un cuestionario ad-hoc y se evaluó el nivel de las tres dimensiones (agotamiento emocional, despersonalización y realización personal) del burnout mediante el cuestionario Maslach Burnout Inventory. Se aplicó estadística descriptiva e inferencial. Resultados. En los/as docentes la puntuación media de agotamiento emocional fue 10,45 (8,32) puntos, de despersonalización fue 2,64 (3,02) puntos y de realización personal fue 39,38 (7,59) puntos. No se encontró relación entre las características sociodemográficas y laborales propuestas y las dimensiones del burnout, excepto la práctica de ejercicio físico. Los/as docentes que practicaban ejercicio físico habitualmente presentaban los niveles de AE aumentado 8,34 puntos (p=0,007) y de RP disminuido en 6,36 puntos (p=0,03) con respecto a aquellos/as que lo realizaban a diario. Conclusión. Los niveles de agotamiento emocional y de despersonalización son bajos, mientras que el de realización personal es alto. Esto involucra un nivel bajo de burnout. La única variable que muestra relación con las dimensiones del burnout es el ejercicio físico. Quienes lo realizan habitualmente muestran mayor AE y menor RP frente a quienes lo realizan de manera diaria.

Objectives: To evaluate the degree of self-discrepancy about the existing care competencies amongst the students of the Nursing Degree at the University of Córdoba and determine the possible relationship between said self- discrepancy and the sociodemographic, academic and health characteristics present in the student body. Methodology: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study. The subjects of the study were 122 students from the third and fourth year of the Nursing Degree at the University of Córdoba. Self-discrepancies were collected using the Care Competencies questionnaire, validated in Spanish. Sociodemographic variables were collected using an ad-hoc questionnaire. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. Results: The mean of the «I do» domain was lower than that of the «I should» domain. The mean of self-discrepancies was 26.27 (15.78) points. The «aspiration to study Nursing as a first option» and «previous studies related to Nursing» were the variables that shown a significant relationship with the level of self-discrepancy, this level being lower in students who had chosen to study Nursing as first option (p=0.04) and in those who has taken previous studies related to the degree (p=0.02). Discussion: The level of self-discrepancy about care competencies among students of the Nursing Degree is low. The level of self-discrepancy is at its lowest between students who have taken the Nursing Degree as first option and those who attended previous studies related to the Nursing Degree., Objetivos: Evaluar el grado de auto-discrepancia con las competencias de cuidado existente en los estudiantes del Grado de Enfermería de la Universidad de Córdoba y determinar la posible relación entre dicha auto- discrepancia y las características sociodemográficas, académicas y sanitarias presentes en el alumnado.

Se aplicó estadística descriptiva e inferencial. Resultados: La media del dominio «Yo real» fue menor que la del dominio «Yo debería». La media de auto-discrepancias fue de 26,27 (15,78) puntos. El «deseo de cursar el Grado de Enfermería como primera opción» y los «estudios previos relacionados con el Grado de Enfermería» fueron las variables que han mostrado una relación significativa con el nivel de auto-discrepancia, siendo este menor en los alumnos que optaron por cursar Enfermería como primera opción (p=0,04) y en los que cursaron estudios previos relacionados con el grado (p=0,02). Discusión: El nivel de auto-discrepancia con las competencias de cuidado en los estudiantes del Grado de Enfermería es bajo. Tienen menor nivel de auto- discrepancias los alumnos que han cursado el Grado de Enfermería como primera opción y aquellos que cursaron estudios previos relacionados con el Grado de Enfermería.

Objectives: To know the level of anxiety of the participants and to analyze the possible connection between the level of anxiety and the sociodemographic and educational variables studied. Material and methods: Cross-sectional study of 305 Nursing, Medicine and Physiotherapy students from the University of Córdoba. To measure anxiety, the State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), validated in Spanish, was applied. Descriptive and inferential statistics were applied. Results: The mean state-anxiety score was 23.63 (9.98) and the anxiety trait was 26.49 (10.69). An inverse relation-ship was found between the level of anxiety-trait, the age of the participants (r = -0.0040; p = 0.04) and the number of hours of sleep (r = -0.20; p<0.001) .However, the level of anxiety-state had no relationship with the age of the participants (r = 0.07; p = 0.79). Conclusions: female sex, sleep deficit, difficulty and academic performance and being a university student were associated with a higher level of state-anxiety and trait-anxiety. On the other hand, the level of anxiety-trait was related to the age of the participants, Objetivos: Conocer el nivel de ansiedad de los participantes y analizar la posible relación entre el nivel de ansiedad y las variables sociodemográficas y relacionadas con el ámbito educativo estudiadas. Material y métodos: Estudio transversal realizado a 305 estudiantes de Enfermería, Medicina y Fisioterapia de la Universidad de Córdoba.

Spanish and immigrant children and adolescents vary widely in their frequency of dental visits and occurrence of dental problems. The aims of this study were to discover the prevalence of dental problems and utilization of dental services in the Spanish and immigrant child population, identify the type of treatment received, and analyze the socioeconomic and demographic variables which are associated with dental problems and non-regular utilization of dental services, based on data from the 2017 National Health Survey in Spain. The sample consisted of 4568 children aged between 3 and 14 years old. Utilization of dental services and dental problems were assessed against socioeconomic and demographic characteristics using logistic regression models. The prevalence of caries in Spanish children was 9.29% compared with 18.58% (p < 0.001) in their immigrant counterparts. The most common reason for dental visits was a check-up (Spanish: 65.05%; immigrants: 54.94%). In both groups, from the age of 7, there was a lower probability of non-regular utilization of dental services, although this increased when the social class was lower. The probability of presenting dental problems was lower in Spanish children living in towns with over 10,000 inhabitants and was higher, in both groups, over the age of 7 and in lower social classes.

Elderly people are a particularly important population with regard to antibiotic overuse, using around 50% more antibiotics per capita than younger adults. The aim of this study was to analyze the prevalence, associated factors and evolution over time of antibiotic consumption among the Spanish population aged ≥ 65 years from 2006 to 2017. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using data from the Spanish National Health Survey in 2006, 2011/2012 and 2017, and from the European Health Survey in Spain in 2009 and 2014. The sample consisted of 26,891 non-institutionalized individuals ≥ 65 years. Antibiotic consumption was the dependent variable, and sociodemographic variables, lifestyle habits and health status were analyzed using a logistic regression model. The prevalence of antibiotic consumption was 4.94%, with a marked increase from 2006 (4.64%) to 2017 (5.81%) (p < 0.0001). Higher antibiotic consumption was associated with poor or very poor self-perceived health status, no polypharmacy and not having been in hospital during the previous twelve months, while a lower consumption was linked to being limited but not severely due to a health problem and not being at all limited.

Burnout is a major problem among nurses working in emergency departments and is closely related to a high turnover of personnel, nursing errors, and patient dissatisfaction. The aims of this study were to estimate burnout, perceived stress, job satisfaction, coping and general health levels experienced by nurses working in emergency departments in Spain and to analyze the relationships between sociodemographic, occupational, and psychological variables and the occurrence of burnout syndrome among these professionals. A cross-sectional study was conducted in four emergency departments in Andalusia (Spain) from March to December 2016. The study sample was composed of n = 171 nurses. An ad hoc questionnaire was prepared to collect sociodemographic and work data, and the Maslach Burnout Inventory, the Perceived Stress Scale, the Font–Roja Questionnaire, the Brief Cope Orientation to Problem Experience and the General Health Questionnaire were used. The prevalence of high burnout was 8.19%. The levels of perceived stress and job satisfaction were moderate. The most frequent clinical manifestations were social dysfunction and somatic symptoms, and problem-focused coping was the strategy most used by nurses. Lack of physical exercise, gender, years worked at an emergency department, anxiety, social dysfunction, and avoidance coping were significant predictors of the dimensions of burnout.

The role of diet quality in depression is an emerging research area and it appears that diet quality could be an important modifying factor. The aims of this study were to report the prevalence of diet quality among individuals with and without a self-reported diagnosis of depression aged from 16 to 64 years old in Spain, to analyze the time trends of the frequency of food consumption and diet quality from 2011 to 2017 in individuals with a self-reported diagnosis of depression, and to explore the associations between poor/improvable diet quality and sociodemographic, lifestyle, and health-related factors. A nationwide cross-sectional study was conducted in 42,280 participants with and without a self-reported diagnosis of depression who had participated in the 2011/2012 and 2017 Spanish National Health Surveys and the 2014 European Health Survey in Spain. A logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the variables associated with diet quality. The overall prevalence of diet quality among depressive and non-depressive individuals revealed 65.71% and 70.27% were in need of improvement, respectively. Moreover, having a poor or improvable diet quality is associated with male gender, people aged 16–24 years old and 25–44 years old, separated or divorced, and also in smokers.

Common mental disorders (CMD) represent a serious, growing public health concern, especially in women. The aims of this study were to report the prevalence of CMD among the adult population in Spain, to analyze the time trends from 2006 to 2017 and to explore the associations between CMD and gender, in relation to the perceived environmental and sociodemographic problems and clinical factors. A nationwide cross-sectional study was conducted including 48,505 participants aged 16 to 64 years old who had participated in the Spanish National Health Surveys in 2006, 2011/2012 and 2017. A logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the variables associated with CMD by gender. The prevalence of CMD was 20.4% in 2006, 20.8% in 2011/2012 and 16.9% in 2017 (p = 0.36). In women, the probability of having a CMD was higher in widowed or separated/divorced compared with single individuals and as the perception of distressing noise levels from outside the home increased. The probability of CMD was lower as the level of education increased in men. Foreigners and those with limitations due to health problems, chronic conditions and worse perceived health were more likely to suffer from a CMD in both women and men.

Influenza is a significant public health problem and the elderly are at a greater risk of contracting the disease. The vaccination coverage of the elderly is below the Spanish target of 65% for each influenza season. The aims of this study were to report the coverage of influenza vaccination in Spain among the population aged ≥65 years and high-risk groups for suffering chronic diseases, to analyze the time trends from 2006 to 2017 and to identify the factors which affect vaccination coverage. A nationwide cross-sectional study was conducted including 20,753 non-institutionalized individuals aged ≥65 years who had participated in the Spanish National Health Surveys in 2006, 2011/2012, and 2017. Sociodemographic, health-related variables, and influenza vaccination data were used. A logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the variables associated with influenza vaccination. Influenza vaccination coverage was 60%. By chronic condition, older people with high cholesterol levels and cancer had the lowest vaccination coverage (62.41% and 60.73%, respectively). This coverage declined from 2006 to 2017 in both groups. Higher influenza vaccination was associated with males, Spanish nationality, normal social support perceived, polypharmacy, worse perceived health, participation in other preventive measures, and increasing age and the number of chronic diseases.

Workplace violence in healthcare professionals has become a worldwide public health problem and has been the focus of numerous publications; however, currently, no macroscopic overviews of this research based on bibliometric analysis have been carried out. Therefore, the main aim of this study was to analyse the research trends focusing on workplace violence in healthcare personnel over the last 27 years.
