Research trends over 10 years (2010-2021) in infant and toddler rearing behavior by family caregivers in South Korea: text network and topic modeling.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study analyzed research trends in infant and toddler rearing behavior among family caregivers over a 10-year period (2010-2021).

Methods

Text network analysis and topic modeling were employed on data collected from relevant papers, following the extraction and refinement of semantic morphemes. A semantic-centered network was constructed by extracting words from 2,613 English-language abstracts. Data analysis was performed using NetMiner 4.5.0.

Results

Frequency analysis, degree centrality, and eigenvector centrality all revealed the terms ''scale," ''program," and ''education" among the top 10 keywords associated with infant and toddler rearing behaviors among family caregivers. The keywords extracted from the analysis were divided into two clusters through cohesion analysis. Additionally, they were classified into two topic groups using topic modeling: "program and evaluation" (64.37%) and "caregivers' role and competency in child development" (35.63%).

Conclusion

The roles and competencies of family caregivers are essential for the development of infants and toddlers. Intervention programs and evaluations are necessary to improve rearing behaviors. Future research should determine the role of nurses in supporting family caregivers. Additionally, it should facilitate the development of nursing strategies and intervention programs to promote positive rearing practices.

Project description:BackgroundThe infant mortality rate (IMR) has been considered an important indicator of the overall public health level. Despite improvements in recent decades, regional inequalities in the IMR have been reported worldwide. However, there are no Korean epidemiological studies on regional disparities in the IMR.MethodsWe extracted causes of death data from the Statistics Korea through the Korean Statistical Information Service database between 2001 and 2021. The total and regional IMRs were calculated to determine regional disparities. Based on causes of death and using Seoul as a reference, the excess infant deaths and population attributable fractions (PAFs) were calculated for 15 other metropolitan cities and provinces. The average annual percent changes by region from 2001 to 2021 were obtained using a joinpoint regression program. To assess inequities in IMR trends, the rate ratios (RRs) and rate differences (RDs) of the 15 regions were calculated by dividing the study period into period 1 (2001-2007), period 2 (2008-2014), and period 3 (2015-2021).ResultsThe overall IMR in Korea was 3.64 per 1,000 live births, and the IMRs in the 14 regions were relatively higher than that in Seoul, with RRs ranging from 1.15 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04, 1.27) in Jeju-do to 1.62 (95% CI, 1.54, 1.71) in Daegu, over the total study period. Significant differences in infant deaths by region were observed for all causes of death, with PAFs ranging from 2.2% (95% CI, 1.7, 2.6) in Gyeonggi-do to 38.4% (95% CI, 38.1, 38.6) in Daegu. The leading cause of excess infant deaths was perinatal problems. The IMR disparities in the relative and absolute measures decreased from 1.44 (1.34, 1.54) to 1.21 (1.10, 1.31) for RRs and from 0.79 (0.63, 0.96) to 0.30 (0.15, 0.45) for RDs between periods 1 and 2, followed by an increase from 1.21 (1.10, 1.31) to 1.36 (1.21, 1.53) for RRs and from 0.30 (0.15, 0.45) to 0.51(0.36, 0.67) for RDs between period 2 and 3.ConclusionInfant death is associated with place of residence and regional gaps have recently widened again in Korea. An in-depth investigation of the causes of regional disparities in infant mortality is required for effective governmental policies to achieve equality in infant health.

Project description:This study investigated the emergence and use of Twitter, as of July 2023 being rebranded as X, as the main forum for social media communication in parasitology. A dataset of tweets was constructed using a keyword search of Twitter with the search terms ‘malaria’, ‘Plasmodium’, ‘Leishmania’, ‘Trypanosoma’, ‘Toxoplasma’ and ‘Schistosoma’ for the period from 2011 to 2020. Exploratory data analyses of tweet content were conducted, including language, usernames and hashtags. To identify parasitology topics of discussion, keywords and phrases were extracted using KeyBert and biterm topic modelling. The sentiment of tweets was analysed using VADER. The results show that the number of tweets including the keywords increased from 2011 (for malaria) and 2013 (for the others) to 2020, with the highest number of tweets being recorded in 2020. The maximum number of yearly tweets for Plasmodium, Leishmania, Toxoplasma, Trypanosoma and Schistosoma was recorded in 2020 (2804, 2161, 1570, 680 and 360 tweets, respectively). English was the most commonly used language for tweeting, although the percentage varied across the searches. In tweets mentioning Leishmania, only ∼37% were in English, with Spanish being more common. Across all the searches, Portuguese was another common language found. Popular tweets on Toxoplasma contained keywords relating to mental health including depression, anxiety and schizophrenia. The Trypanosoma tweets referenced drugs (benznidazole, nifurtimox) and vectors (bugs, triatomines, tsetse), while the Schistosoma tweets referenced areas of biology including pathology, eggs and snails. A wide variety of individuals and organisations were shown to be associated with Twitter activity. Many journals in the parasitology arena regularly tweet about publications from their journal, and professional societies promote activity and events that are important to them. These represent examples of trusted sources of information, often by experts in their fields. Social media activity of influencers, however, who have large numbers of followers, might have little or no training in science. The existence of such tweeters does raise cause for concern to parasitology, as one may start to question the quality of information being disseminated. Graphical abstract Image 1 Highlights • Study of Twitter as the main forum for social media communication in parasitology.• English, Spanish and Portuguese, amongst others, were predominantly the most commonly used languages for tweeting.• Tweeters include citizens, scientists plus a wide range of organisations.• Topics discussed are very domain specific, e.g. Toxoplasma and mental health.• The need for E-Professionalism is discussed.
