To explore the relationship between sleep and cognitive frailty in older adults.
A systematic review and meta-analysis.
The Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Embase, PsycINFO and PubMed databases were searched from inception to October 28, 2024.
Two investigators independently conducted literature screening, data extraction and quality assessment. The Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tool and Newcastle–Ottawa Scale were used to evaluate methodological quality. This review followed PRISMA guidelines.
This review included 13 articles involving 14,223 individuals, and 10 studies included in the meta-analysis. Across 13 studies, the overall prevalence of cognitive frailty was 25%. Sleep problems were categorised into four categories; the results reported that poor sleep quality, long sleep time and insomnia were correlated with the presence of cognitive frailty. However, the relationship between short sleep time and cognitive frailty was not significant.
This review quantitatively suggested that sleep parameters such as long sleep time, insomnia and poor sleep quality were correlated with the presence of cognitive frailty. Future research should adopt longitudinal designs and use validated instruments to measure both quantitative and qualitative aspects of sleep, thereby facilitating a thorough examination of the strength of the relationship between sleep and cognitive frailty, as well as the direction of causality.
The review highlights the need to integrate comprehensive sleep assessments and targeted interventions into nursing care plans for older adults to enhance their sleep health. The findings will provide support for the development of effective interventions to prevent and manage cognitive frailty in the older population.

To identify factors associated with job embeddedness from the perspective of retaining new graduate nurses.
The study was cross-sectional in design.
Convenience and stratified sampling were used to recruit 415 newly graduated nurses from 12 tertiary hospitals in China. Anonymized data were collected through self-designed sociodemographic questionnaires, job embeddedness scale, feedback-seeking behaviour scale, authentic leadership perception scale and decent work scale. Appropriate indicators were used for descriptive statistics and t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression to examine the influencing factors.
The study showed that monthly income level, decent labour, authentic leadership and feedback-seeking behaviour were significant predictors of job embeddedness among new graduate nurses.
The job embeddedness of new graduate nurses is moderate. Nursing managers need to construct reasonable and fair compensation incentives, adopt positive leadership styles and encourage proactive feedback-seeking behaviours to improve the job embeddedness of new graduate nurses and alleviate the nursing talent shortage.
Exploring the factors influencing the job embeddedness of new graduate nurses provides a reference for establishing new graduate nurse retention strategies to help promote the career development of new graduate nurses and alleviate the nursing brain drain.
We adhered to the Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE) guidelines.
