Resources that individuals acquire at work can have significant effects on their own well‐being and family satisfaction, and on those of their closest family relations. Following the conservation of resources theory, this study examined the effects of work‐to‐family enrichment (WFE) on psychological distress (depression, anxiety, and stress) and family satisfaction (SWFaL) in different‐gender dual‐earner parents. The sample consisted of 473 couples – mother and father – from Temuco, Chile, who answered the Work‐Family Interface scale, the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale, and the Satisfaction with Family Scale. The analysis was conducted using the Actor‐Partner Interdependence Model (APIM). Results showed that WFE was positively associated with SWFaL for both mothers and fathers (actor effects), whereas higher WFE was linked to lower psychological distress only in fathers. For mothers and fathers, psychological distress was negatively associated with their own (actor effects) and the other parent's SWFAL (partner effects). The mediating role of psychological distress was found only for fathers' WFE and their SWFaL. These results indicate that resources from work can increase family satisfaction for both fathers and mothers in dual‐earner couples with adolescent children. However, in these couples, fathers acquire affective resources (positive mood) that reduce their own psychological distress, while mothers acquire skills (managing time at home more efficiently) that they invest directly in the family domain.
Occurrence of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus is a frequent complication of atrial fibrillation (AF) and it increase thromboembolic risk. Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is considered the gold standard to ensure that this chamber is thrombus free. Multidetector computed tomography (CT) scan has some advantages such the possibility to get 3D reconstruction and explore another structures in relationship with the LAA. However, lack of specificity in case of false positive images with filling defects due to slow velocities in the LAA. Methods and Results: 34 patiens with suspected thrombus by a previous CT scan or transesophageal echo were included in analisys. The aim of study was evaluated the utility of CT scan with delayed acquisition protocol to exclude LAA thrombus. In all of patients, complete LAA filling was observed, with a sensitivity, specificity and negative predictive value of 100% to differentiate circulatory stasis from thrombus. Conclusion: Perform a CT scan with a delayed acquisition protocol and in prone position are safe techniques to rule out fake thrombus.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
