    Background Emotional Intelligence (EI) has emerged as a pivotal factor in work effectiveness and well-being within the healthcare domain. Specifically, its significance is heightened in the nursing sector, where emotional and social demands are high. Additionally, job satisfaction and conflict management are recognized as vital predictors of patient care service quality. However, there is a dearth of research addressing the mediating role of conflict management in the relationship between EI and job satisfaction within a nursing context. Objective This study aims to assess the mediating role of conflict management in the relationship between emotional intelligence and job satisfaction among nurses. Methods The STROBE checklist for cross-sectional studies was followed. A cross-sectional and explanatory design was employed. Data were collected using self-reported questionnaires to measure emotional intelligence, conflict management, and job satisfaction. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was conducted to test the proposed hypotheses. Results A total of 208 nurses aged between 18 and 65 years participated ( M = 41.18, SD = 8.942). The findings confirmed a positive relationship between emotional intelligence and conflict management ( β = 0.64, p < 0.001). Similarly, a positive relationship between conflict management and job satisfaction was observed ( β = 0.37, p < 0.001). Moreover, conflict management was validated as a mediator in the relationship between emotional intelligence and job satisfaction ( β = 0.77, p = 0.002). Conclusion The study underscores the importance of emotional intelligence and conflict management as predictors of job satisfaction in nurses. The results suggest that interventions aimed at enhancing emotional intelligence might be an effective avenue for increasing job satisfaction, especially when conflict management strategies are integrated.

    Introduction: organizational climate is a key factor in employee performance and satisfaction. In this study, the validity and reliability of an organizational climate scale in agroindustrial companies in Peru was examined. Objective: to analyze the psychometric properties of an organizational climate scale adapted to Peruvian Spanish. Methods: A methodological study was carried out. Demographic data were collected, as well as responses to an organizational climate questionnaire. Results: the data were analyzed using confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA). The reliability of the instrument was high (α = 0,92). However, the factor loadings of several items were not adequate, so a unidimensional model was tested, then a model with adequate factor loadings, and finally an optimal model. In this last 9-item model, the fit was optimal, and the factor loading was adequate for all items. Conclusion: overall, the organizational climate scale demonstrated good reliability and validity in this context of agroindustrial companies in Peru. However, some items needed to be revised to improve the scale's accuracy. These findings provide a valuable tool for measuring the organizational climate in these types of companies and pave the way for future research in this field

    Objective: This study aims to conduct a brief literature review on post-COVID-19 complications in obese patients.Design: A literature review based on a narrative synthesis.Data Sources: The databases consulted include Science Direct, Scopus, Scielo, Google Scholar, and PubMed.Study Selection: Multiple articles were selected, applying inclusion criteria focused on post-COVID-19 complications in obese patients, with publications ranging from 2020 to 2024. Irrelevant studies were excluded. The final selection included articles from 10 different countries.Data Extraction: From each study, key data were extracted, including research design, population characteristics, and main reported complications. The information was organized narratively to facilitate comparison of findings across studies.Results: Out of 261,357 articles, 15 relevant articles were selected for the review. These articles were published in 10 countries, as follows: Spain (3 middle-income and 1 lower-middle income), Italy (1 lower-middle income, 1 high-income, and 1 mixed-income), India (2 middle and lower income), Russia (1 middle income), Japan (1 high, middle, and low income), Germany (1 middle income), United States (1 middle income), Mexico (1 middle income), Brazil (1 middle income), and China (1 high and middle income). The findings indicate that socioeconomic inequalities tend to increase the risk of COVID-19-related mortality.Conclusion: COVID-19 is associated with type 2 diabetes, an increased risk of coronary problems, hypertension, and nerve damage such as polyneuropathy, affecting muscle strength and increasing the mortality rate in respiratory diseases such as COPD, leading to lung damage and fibrosis. Treatment should be comprehensive, including vaccines, respiratory exercises, and physiotherapy, where the drug Veklury (remdesivir) has shown efficacy in accelerating recovery and strengthening the immune system. Additionally, post-COVID conditions such as anxiety, depression, and persistent respiratory issues should be addressed.

    Emotional intelligence (EI) and transformational leadership (TL) have been identified as key factors in team effectiveness (TE); however, the empirical evidence remains fragmented and exhibits substantial conceptual and methodological heterogeneity, particularly in studies that simultaneously integrate these three variables. To address this gap, the present study examined the relationships among TL, EI, and TE by applying the PRISMA 2020 protocol and the PICO-S framework. A total of 728 studies published in Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, Emerald, ProQuest, and APA PsycNet were identified, of which 22 studies were included in the systematic review and 15 documents in the meta-analysis. The results revealed positive and statistically significant correlations between TL–TE (9 studies, 18 effects, N = 3480; r ≈ 0.45), EI–TE (8 studies, 15 effects, N = 3440; r ≈ 0.41), and EI–TL (4 studies, 6 effects, N = 1955; r ≈ 0.63), with effect sizes and levels of heterogeneity ranging from moderate to high. Additionally, variations in the strength of these relationships were observed according to sample size, year of publication, and methodological quality. In conclusion, EI emerges as a central resource that strengthens TL and, through psychological and relational mechanisms, consistently enhances TE in complex organizational contexts.

    Crises negatively affect the economy of a country, increasing financial risk, as they affect work activities and the well-being of the population. This study aimed to examine the mediating role of financial well-being in the relationship between personal well-being and financial threats. A predictive cross-sectional study was conducted. The variables analyzed were personal well-being, financial threats, and financial well-being. A total of 416 Peruvian adults from the three regions of Peru participated. The mean age was M = 35.36, SD = 8.84, with a range of 19–62 years. To represent the statistical mediation model, a structural equation model (SEM) was used. The analysis showed that the variables were significantly related ( p < 0.001). The theoretical model indicated a perfect mediation, also obtaining a good fit, χ 2 (168) = 394.3, CFI = 0.931, RMSEA = 0.057, SRMR = 0.062. The study showed that personal well-being serves as a basis for promoting financial well-being and this contributes to the reduction of financial threats.

    INTRODUCTION: Commonly, burnout in nurses has influenced their performance. The contribution of this study allows to broaden the knowledge of the performance-burnout relationship and identifies the work performance in nurses as a precursor of burnout. OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to examine the factors of work performance of nursing staff that influence burnout. METHODS: A descriptive cross-sectional design was used and a total of 340 nurses from the department of Puno in Peru participated. Demographic, job performance, and burnout data were collected. RESULTS: Job performance factors, such as counterproductive behavior, positively influenced burnout, while task and context performance negatively influenced burnout. These variables explained 28.54% of the variance of burnout among nurses. CONCLUSION: Job performance factors have a significant impact on burnout. To reduce burnout, workforce resources that motivate, engage, and monitor nurse performance must be identified individually or organizationally. There is a need to develop training that promotes the improvement of emotional skills for better performance and the reduction of professional burnout.

    Background: Nurses are susceptible to several mental problems, such as fear, stress, and depression due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which affects their emotional well-being. However, resilience plays an important role in mitigating the effects of COVID-19. Objective: This study was to examine the mediating role of resilience in the relation between fear, stress, and depression of nurses during COVID-19 health emergencies. Methods: A cross-sectional—predictive study was carried out. The variables analyzed were fear, resilience, stress, and depression. A total of 286 nurses from 2 hospitals in the cities of Juliaca and Puno, Peru. Data analyses were performed using structural equation modeling (SEM). Results: Analyses showed that the variables were significantly related ( P < .01). In addition, a confirmatory analysis of the hypothesized model using structural equation modeling shows that fear and stress are predictors of depression, and that resilience plays a role in mediating the effect of fear on stress ( X 2 = 534.69, gl = 372, P = .000; TLI = .902, CFI = .910, RMSEA = .039 [95% CI = 0.032-0.046], and SRMR = .065). Conclusion: Nurses tend to develop fear, stress, and depression. Resilience reduces the impact of these psychological variables. Hospital management should provide psychological support and training for nurses in coping strategies.

    The need for partial or total substitution of animal protein sources by vegetable sources of high protein quality with good sensory acceptance is a promising alternative. The objective was to develop a hamburger with vegetable protein using a mixture design based on quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.), Peruvian Andean corn (Zea mays) and Andean lupine (Lupinus mutabilis Sweet). The design of these mixtures allowed obtaining eleven formulations, three of which were selected for complying with the amino acid intake for adults recommended by FAO. Then, a completely randomized design was applied to the selected samples plus a commercial product. Proximal composition was measured on a dry basis (protein, fat, carbohydrates, and ash), calculation of the Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) and a sensory analysis was carried out using the Check-All-That-Apply (CATA) method with acceptability in 132 regular consumers of vegetarian products. Protein, fat, carbohydrate, and ash contents ranged from 18.5–24.5, 4.1–7.5, 65.4–72.1 and 2.8–5.9%, respectively. The use of Andean crops favored the protein content and the contribution of sulfur amino acids (SAA) and tryptophan from quinoa and lysine and threonine from lupin. The samples with Andean crops were described as easy to cut, soft, good, healthy, legume flavor, tasty and light brown, however the commercial sample was characterized as difficult to cut, hard, dark brown, uneven color, dry and grainy. The sample with 50% quinoa and 50% lupin was the most acceptable and reached a digestibility of 0.92. It complied with the lysine, threonine, and tryptophan intake, with the exception of SAA, according to the essential amino acid pattern proposed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
