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.
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.
ObjectivesTo investigate the present status of clinical nurses' attitude towards patient safety and its influencing factors.MethodsA total of 2 290 clinical nurses in 10 large general hospitals in Anhui Province were investigated by general data and patient safety attitude questionnaire (SAQ).ResultsThe total score of the nurse's patient safety attitude was 112.57±11.83, in which the 6 dimension scores arranged from high to low were management recognition, working conditions, job satisfaction, team cooperation, safety climate, and pressure perception. Nurses who were female, marriage, college degrees, head nurse, and receivded patient safety education had higher total scores.ConclusionsScores of nurses of tertiary 3A hospitals in Anhui Province are overall above average. The influencing factors of nurses’ safety attitude are gender, marital status, education level, length of service, whether being head nurse, and whether being received safety education.
Objectives To study the characteristics and influencing factors of sleep disorder in patients with epilepsy. Methods One hundred and eighty-four patients with epilepsy who were admitted to the outpatient department and the epilepsy center in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University from October 2016 to October 2017 were enrolled. Their clinical data were collected in detail and their sleep related scales were evaluated. Sleep related assessment tools: Chinese version of the Pittsburgh sleep quality index scale (PSQI), the Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), Berlin Questionnaire (BQ), Quality Of Life In People With Epilepsy-31 (QOLIE-31), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Beck Depression Inventory(BDI). Results Among the 184 cases of patients with epilepsy, 100 cases were male (54.3%), 84 cases were female (45.7%), 35 cases (19.0%) had sleep disorders, 89 cases (48.4%) with poor quality of life, 23 cases (12.5%) with anxiety, 47 cases (25.5%) with depression, 59 cases (32.1%) had daytime sleepiness, and 30 cases (16.3%) with OSAS. there were statistically significant differences in age, history of hypertension, seizure frequency, quality of life , anxiety and depression in epilepsy patients with sleep disorder compared those without sleep disorder (P<0.05). The seizure frequency, quality of life, anxiety and depression were analyzed by logistic regression analysis, suggesting that seizure frequency (P=0.011) and depression (P<0.001) are independent risk factors of sleep disorders. Conclusions Epileptic patients with sleep disorder have higher frequency of seizures, poorer quality of life, and are more likely to be associated with anxiety and depression, and the frequency and depression are independent risk factors of sleep disorder in patients with epilepsy.
Progressive ischemic stroke is one of the major diseases damaging the health of Chinese people. Its pathogenesis is complex and there are many influencing factors, but the treatment methods are limited. In recent years, the rapid development of neuroimaging and the results of various clinical trials have been reported in succession, which have made new progress in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of progressive ischemic stroke. This paper summarizes the progress of progressive ischemic stroke, introduces its pathogenesis (including increased intracranial pressure and reduced perfusion pressure, thrombosis progression, hemorrhagic transformation, cerebral edema, and inflammatory response), influencing factors, predictive indicators (including image indicators, biochemical indicators, and molecular biology indicators) and treatment (including admission to “stroke unit”, intravascular treatment, platelet aggregation inhibition treatment, anticoagulation treatment, and general treatment), to provide references for preventing the occurrence and development of progressive ischemic stroke, assessing the condition, guiding treatment and improving the prognosis.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the smoking environment, its related knowledge and difference between urban and rural areas in Chengdu. MethodsIn December 2010, we randomly sampled and investigated 60 dwellers aged from 35 to 70 from urban and rural communities, who were 1:1 paired by the age and sex. Questionnaires survey was used. ResultsThere were 48.3% (29/60) dwellers thought that smoking should be allowed freely at home, of which 30.0% (9/30)rural homes had no rules about smoking prohibited. There were 93.3% (28/30) urban dwellers supported male smoking. About 86.7%-98.3% urban dwellers realized that many diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and lung cancer may be due to smoking. And 16.7% urban dwellers also realized that cigarettes can result in diabetes mellitus, but none of rural dwellers did. The publicity of smoking cessation among urban dwellers (91.7%) by mass media was better than rural ones (0.0%). There were 95.0% dwellers denied any institution or organization for smoking control. ConclusionThe dwellers were short of cognition about restrictions of smoking environment and non-smoking knowledge. It's different between urban and rural area in tobacco advertisement and publicity of smoking cessation. We should continue enhancing public education, forbiding tobacco advertisement and providing institutions for smoking control.
