ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the influencing factors of disaster resilience for medical rescue workers. MethodsPubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, APA PsycInfo, EMbase, Scopus, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were electronically searched to collect studies on the influencing factors of disaster resilience for medical rescue workers from inception to November 1, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed by using Stata 16.0 software. ResultsA total of 36 studies involving 7 974 medical rescue workers were included. The meta-analysis results showed that personal influencing factors, including active coping, rescue confidence, disaster preparedness, knowledge attainment, physical health, and exercise were positively correlated with the disaster resilience of healthcare workers. However, depression, anxiety, stress, and a history of mental illness were negatively related to the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers. Environmental and background factors, including social support, relief supplies, disaster training, economic condition, rescue experience, length of service, and technical title, were positively correlated with the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers is affected by a variety of personal factors and environmental/background factors. Due to the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo investigate the psychological status and its influencing factors of hospital staff during the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and provide a reference for psychological intervention strategies for hospital staff in public health emergencies.MethodsIn this cross-sectional study, we investigated the staff of Mianzhu People’s Hospital through an anonymous questionnaire survey sent through WeChat group from February 13th to 18th, 2020, to analyze the psychological situation and influencing factors of the on-the-job staff. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis.ResultsAmong the 1 115 staff members who met the inclusion criteria, 951 completed the questionnaire, with a response rate of 85.3%. There were 945 valid questionnaires, with an effective response rate of 84.8%. A total of 224 staff members (23.7%) had mental health problems. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the total scores of social support [odds ratio (OR)=0.869, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.805, 0.938), P<0.001] and the total scores of stress coping strategies [OR=0.685, 95%CI (0.607, 0.772), P<0.001] were protective factors of psychological status, while having kids [OR=1.607, 95%CI (1.084, 2.382), P=0.018] and the position being logistic worker [OR=2.229, 95%CI (1.326, 3.746), P=0.002] were risk factors of psychological status.ConclusionsDuring the outbreak of COVID-19, mental health problems emerged among the staff of designated medical treatment hospital. When a public health emergency occurs, hospitals and relevant departments should take psychological intervention measures as soon as possible to ensure the work of epidemic prevention and control.
ObjectiveTo investigate the willingness and influencing factors of clinical medicine graduate students to study abroad.MethodsFrom September 2019 to January 2020, a survey was conducted among the clinical medicine graduate students in West China School of Medicine, Sichuan University. An anonymous self-report questionnaire was used to investigate their willingness to study abroad, and the related influencing factors were analyzed.ResultsA total of 600 questionnaires were distributed, in which 518 valid questionnaires were collected. Among the 518 graduate students, 96.14% anticipated to study abroad, and 93.05% expected to subsidize the study abroad through the state-sponsored study abroad fund. The major obstacle for studying abroad for joint training was concerning the negative effects on domestic clinical work or scientific research work, resulting in failure to graduate; meanwhile, difficulty in applying was the primary obstacle for studying abroad for a doctorate.ConclusionsThere is a strong willingness for clinical medicine graduate students to study abroad. However, it is affected by graduation time and application.
ObjectiveTo identify the risk factors of postoperative recurrence and survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria following liver resection. MethodsData of 267 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria who received liver resection between 2007 and 2013 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsAmong the 267 patients, 123 patients suffered from recurrence and 51 patients died. The mean time to recurrence were (16.9±14.5) months (2.7-75.1 months), whereas the mean time to death were (27.5±16.4) months (6.1-75.4 months). The recurrence-free survival rates in 1-, 3-, and 5-year after operation was 76.8%, 56.3%, and 47.6%, respectively; whereas the overall survival rates in 1-, 3-, and 5-year after operation was 96.6%, 82.5%, and 74.5%, respectively. Multivariate analyses suggested the tumor differentiation, microvascular invasion, and multiple tumors were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence; whereas the tumor differentiation, positive preoperative HBV-DNA load, and preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio adversely influenced the postoperative survival. ConclusionsFor patients with hepatocellular carcinoma within Milan criteria after liver resection, the tumor differentiation, microvascular invasion, and multiple tumors contribute to postoperative recurrence; whereas the tumor differentiation, positive preoperative HBV-DNA load, and preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio adversely influence the postoperative survival.
Objective To investigate the rate of pulmonary function test, medication treatment, and relevant factors among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) aged 40 years or older in community of Guangdong Province, and to provide evidences for targeted intervention of COPD. Methods A multistage stratified cluster sampling was conducted in the community residents, who participated in the COPD surveillance project of in Guangdong Province during 2019 to 2020. A total of 3384 adults completed questionnaire and pulmonary function test. The Rao-Scott χ2 test based on complex sampling design, and non-conditional Logistic regression were used to explore possible influencing factors of pulmonary function test and medication treatment in COPD patients. Results Out of the 3384 adults, 288 patients with COPD were confirmed, including 253 males (87.8%) and 35 females (12.2%), and 184 patients (60.4%) were over 60 years old or more. The pulmonary function test rate was 10.7% [95% confidence interval (CI) 6.8% - 14.6%], and medication treatment rate was 10.6% (95%CI 7.0% - 14.1%). The results showed that wheezing, awareness of COPD related knowledge and pulmonary function test were related to whether COPD patients had pulmonary function test (P<0.05). Wheezing and personal history of respiratory diseases were related to medication treatment rate (P<0.05). Conclusions The rates of pulmonary function test and medication treatment among COPD patients aged 40 years or older are low. Health education about COPD should be actively carried out, and the screening of individuals with a history of respiratory diseases and respiratory symptoms should be strengthened so as to reduce the burden of COPD diseases.
Cancer is a disease that incidence rate, disability rate and mortality rate are high all over the world. It brings great physical and mental pain to patients. Cancer patients are in a life-threatening state of disease for a long time, which will produce fear of progression (FoP). FoP is a psychological state in which fear of disease may recur or progress. As early as the 1980s, foreign countries began the psychological research on the FoP of cancer patients. They found that this fear really exists in cancer patients and is affected by many factors. This paper reviews the concept of FoP and the related factors affecting FoP in cancer patients. The purpose is to provide reference for clinical early evaluation and reducing the FoP of cancer patients and formulating corresponding nursing measures.
ObjectivesTo investigate the status quo of follow-up services for patients with cervical spondylosis, to explore its influencing factors, and to provide reference for the follow-up management model after postoperative discharge of patients with cervical spondylosis.MethodsA total of 220 patients with cervical spondylosis were selected by using convenient sampling from October 2018 to May 2019, and the general information questionnaire and the follow-up service needs questionnaire were used for the investigation.ResultsThe score of follow-up service content requirement for patients with cervical spondylosis was 54.87±7.56, and the rehabilitation training instruction was the highest. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the follow-up service content score was influenced by education level [non-standardized partial regression coefficient (b)=3.186, 95% confidence interval (CI) (2.490, 3.882), P<0.001], length of hospital stay [b=5.140, 95%CI (3.914, 6.365), P<0.001], Neck Disability Index [b=1.326, 95%CI (0.189, 2.463), P=0.022], and age [≥75 years as the reference, 45-59 years: b=3.766, 95%CI (0.671, 6.860), P=0.017; 60-74 years: b=4.081, 95%CI(0.849, 7.314), P=0.014]. The method of obtaining follow-up services was mainly based on outpatient follow-up (85.5%), telephone follow-up (50.5%), and established a follow-up service center (40.5%) for discharged patients. The executives were multidisciplinary teams (60.5%) and hospital-community integration teams (48.2%). There were 19.1% of discharged patients who were willing to pay for relevant follow-up services.ConclusionsPatients with postoperative cervical spondylosis have strong demand for post-discharge follow-up services, which are affected by many factors. Medical staff should pay attention to this and develop a personalized follow-up service plan according to patient characteristics to meet different discharged patients and improve the quality of medical services.
Objective To conduct a scoping review on the influencing factors of comorbid sleep disorders in adolescents with epilepsy, so as to provide a reference basis for clinical prevention and early intervention. MethodsFollowing the methodological framework of scoping review, relevant studies were systematically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP Database. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of each database to April 30, 2025. The included literatures were summarized and analyzed. ResultsA total of 17 literatures were included, and 17 influencing factors related to comorbid sleep disorders in adolescents with epilepsy were identified, which were mainly divided into six categories: demographic factors, characteristics and severity of epilepsy, treatment-related factors, psychiatric comorbidities, organic neurological damage and neurocognitive development and psychosocial and environmental factors. ConclusionSleep disorders are relatively common in adolescents with epilepsy, and their influencing factors are multifaceted.There is a lack of large-sample research on this population in our country, especially the lack of discussion of the causal relationship between influencing factors and sleep disorders, resulting in a lack of basis for early intervention. Future research urgently needs to systematically identify key influencing factors and explore their internal mechanisms through large-sample surveys, so as to lay a solid scientific foundation for the construction of evidence-based intervention programs.
ObjectiveTo investigate the factors affecting enteral nutrition tolerance in patients accepting prone position ventilation.MethodsA retrospective study was conducted to analyze the tolerance of enteral nutrition in patients with prone position ventilation from January 2013 to December 2018. The single factor and multiple factors were used to analyze the influencing factors of enteral nutrition tolerance in patients accepting prone position ventilation.ResultsNinety-two patients who met the inclusion criteria were divided into 2 groups according to enteral nutrition tolerance table: 45 patients with good tolerance and 47 patients with poor tolerance. Univariate analysis showed age, use of muscle relaxants, albumin, prealbumin, feeding amount per unit time, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), nutrition risk in critically ill (NUTRIC) score and gastric residual volume were factors affecting the patient's tolerance (P<0.05). Logistic analysis showed that the factors affecting the patient's tolerance during the prone position were age, use of muscle relaxant, albumin, prealbumin, APACHEⅡ, SOFA, and NUTRIC scores (P<0.05).ConclusionFactors affecting enteral nutrition tolerance in patients accepting prone position ventilation are age, use of muscle relaxants, albumin, prealbumin, APACHEⅡ, SOFA and NUTRIC scores.
Objective To systematically review literature on the influencing factors related to adolescent sub-health problems. Methods We electronically searched the following four databases including CBM, VIP, CNKI and WanFang Data to collect Chinese literature on adolescent sub-health status and problems in China published before May 2012. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and cross checked records. Then qualitative analysis was applied. Results According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 41 cross-sectional studies were included. The results of qualitative analysis showed that the influencing factors of adolescent sub-health could be classified into four categories including social factors, family factors, school factors, and interpersonal relationships. The main ones were social support, employment pressure, family economic conditions, learning burden, unhealthy habits, etc. Conclusions There are many influencing factors of adolescent sub-health with interaction. Due to the limitation of the included studies, more prospective cohort studies are needed to provide high quality evidence.
