ObjectiveTo observe the effect of health education on hand, foot and mouth disease knowledge of the parents and their psychological status, in order to provide a reference for regulating clinical intervention measures. MethodsBetween October 2011 and February 2013, self-made questionnaire was used to survey the parents of 286 children with hand, foot and mouth disease for their knowledge about the disease. We promoted health education including distributing pamphlets, holding lectures, and carrying out psychological counseling. Then, parents' knowledge and their psychological status were compared before and after the implementation of health education. ResultsAfter health education, parents' suspicion, anxiety, fear, indulgence in children and other negative psychological scores were significantly lower than those before intervention (P<0.05). Their knowledge on the disease was also significantly enhanced (P<0.05). Gender, age and educational background were the main influence factors for health education. ConclusionMulti-form comprehensive health education can enhance parents' knowledge on hand, foot and mouth disease effectively and alleviate various negative psychological situations, which assists them to participate in the treatment work actively, thus greatly promotes early rehabilitation of the child patients.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the predictors of enteral nutrition feeding intolerance in critically ill patients. MethodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, WanFang Data, VIP and CBM databases were searched to collect relevant observational studies from the inception to 6 August, 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.4 software. ResultsA total of 18 studies were included, including 28 847 patients. The results of the meta-analysis showed that gender, age, severity of illness, hypo-albuminemia, length of stay, postpyloric feeding, mechanical ventilation and mechanical ventilation time, use of prokinetics, use of sedation drugs, use of vasoactive drugs and use of antibiotics were predictors of enteral nutrition feeding intolerance in critically ill patients, among which postpyloric feeding (OR=0.46, 95%CI 0.29 to 0.71, P<0.01) was a protective factor. ConclusionAccording to the influencing factors, the medical staff can formulate a targeted enteral nutrition program at the time of admission to the ICU to reduce the occurrence of feeding intolerance. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
Objective To analyze caring ability and its associated factors among baccalaureate nursing students, so as to put forward suggestions for improving students’ caring ability. Methods A cross-sectional study was used to investigate baccalaureate nursing students’ caring ability and its associated factors in 4 nursing departments of medical universities in Sichuan province. Results The grade of overall status quo of students’ caring ability was 189.72±19.57, and the mean item scores of different subscales showed that patience was highest and courage was lowest.Two variablescould explain the differences in baccalaureate nursing students’ caring ability: relationship with mother and clinical practice. Conclusion Our study suggests that students’ caring ability could be improved by practicing caring and increasing their exposure to clinical practice. Our findings also suggest that school, society and family are all involved in the cultivation of caring ability.
Objective To systematically review the willingness to use pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and its influencing factors among men who have sex with men (MSM) in China. Methods We conducted a comprehensive search on various databases, including China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP database, Wanfang data, China Biomedical Literature Service System, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase, covering the period from database inception to September 6th, 2023. We focused on studies that publicly reported data on the willingness to use PrEP and its influencing factors among MSM in China. The quality of included studies was assessed using the quality evaluation criteria recommended by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality. RevMan 5.3 software and Stata 13.1 software were used to perform meta-analysis for the willingness to use PrEP and its influencing factors among MSM in China. Results A total of 24 cross-sectional studies with 19 influencing factors and a sample size of 16499 participants were included in the review. The results revealed a PrEP usage intention rate of 60.4% [95% confidence interval (CI) (51.8%, 68.9%)] among the MSM population in China. Factors such as awareness of PrEP [odds ratio (OR)=5.26, 95%CI (1.33, 20.82)], having heard of PrEP [OR=1.84, 95%CI (1.28, 2.64)], age<25 years [OR=1.92, 95%CI (1.34, 2.77)], being a student [OR=1.92, 95%CI (1.17, 3.16)], monthly income of 1000-3000 yuan [OR=1.36, 95%CI (1.12, 1.65)], history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing [OR=2.05, 95%CI (1.53, 2.74)], history of sexually transmitted infections [OR=1.75, 95%CI (1.27, 2.40)], seeking sexual partners online [OR=1.38, 95%CI (1.19, 1.59)], openness about sexual orientation [OR=1.90, 95%CI (1.27, 2.84)], having a non-local household registration [OR=1.66, 95%CI (1.37, 2.02)], and recommending PrEP to friends [OR=20.14, 95%CI (2.59, 156.91)] were identified as promoting factors for the willingness to use PrEP. Conversely, a homosexual orientation [OR=0.67, 95%CI (0.52, 0.85)] was identified as a barrier to the willingness to use PrEP. Conclusions Chinese MSM have a low intention to use PrEP, and there are many factors affecting the intention to use PrEP in MSM. In the future HIV prevention and control work, measures such as strengthening education and publicity of PrEP, providing a certain degree of support for PrEP costs, strengthening health education on campus, strengthening community organizations and support networks should be taken to promote the willingness of MSM to use PrEP.

Purpose To analyze the clinical characteristicsand prognostic factors of Status epilepticus (SE) in children. Methods The clinical data of 33 children with SE treated in Jinan Central Hospital Affiliated of Shandong University from January 2014 to June 2021 were collected, and their clinical characteristics were analyzed. Then, according to Glasgow prognosis scale, the children were divided into good prognosis group (n=20) and poor prognosis group (n=13). The age of first attack, duration of attack, type of attack and SE classification, EEG, cranial imaging and etiology were used to analyze the influencing factors of SE prognosis. Results 75.7% were 0 ~ 6 years old in the age of first attack, and 29 cases of convulsive status epilepticus accounted for 87.9% in the classification of seizure types. There were significant differences in age of first attack, duration of attack, EEG, history of mental retardation and etiology between the two groups (P<0.05); Logistic regression analysis showed that the age of first attack, duration of attack, history of mental retardation and EEG were independent factors affecting the prognosis. Conclusion Low age, especially ≤ 6 years old, is the high incidence of SE in children at first attack. Most children are symptomatic and have obvious incentives. Convulsive SE is the main type of SE in children. The age of first onset, duration of epilepsy, history of mental retardation, and EEG can affect the prognosis of SE.
Objective To explore the current situation and influencing factors of self-management behavior in patients with primary glaucoma, so as to provide a theoretical basis for formulating intervention strategies to improve patients’ self-management ability. Methods Using convenient sampling method, 400 patients with primary glaucoma visiting the Outpatient Department of Ophthalmology, West China Hospital of Sichuan University between September 2019 and March 2020 were selected. Their current situation of self-management behavior was investigated by self-management behavior questionnaire, and the influencing factors of self-management behavior were analyzed. Results A total of 381 valid questionnaires were recovered. The total score of self-management behavior of patients with primary glaucoma was 51.11±6.22, and the mean scores of life debugging dimension, functional health care dimension, and medical management dimension were 2.66±0.67, 3.02±0.81, and 3.13±0.60, respectively. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that age [40-59 vs. <40 years old: unstandardized partial regression coefficient (b)=–2.830, 95% confidence interval (CI) (–4.813, –0.847), P=0.005; ≥60 vs. <40 years old: b=–2.660, 95%CI (–4.820, –0.498), P=0.016], occupation [in-service vs. farmers: b=2.639, 95%CI (0.303, 4.976), P=0.027; unemployed or retired vs. farmers: b=2.913, 95%CI (0.995, 4.831), P=0.003], smoking [smoking vs. non-smoking: b=–3.135, 95%CI (–5.196, –1.075), P=0.003], disease type [primary open-angle glaucoma vs. primary angle-closure glaucoma: b=–2.119, 95%CI (–3.317, –0.921), P=0.001], number of follow-up visits [≤2 vs. >2: b=–1.071, 95%CI (–2.118, –0.024), P=0.045], whether fixed doctor follow-up [unfixed vs. fixed: b=–2.619, 95%CI (–3.632, –1.605), P<0.001] were correlated with the total score of self-management behavior of patients with primary glaucoma. Conclusions The self-management behavior of patients with primary glaucoma is in the middle level. The main factors affecting the self-management behavior level of primary glaucoma patients include age, occupation, smoking, disease type, follow-up times, and fixed doctor’s follow-up. Ophthalmologists should pay attention to the current situation and influencing factors of self-management behavior and take feasible intervention measures to improve the self-management behavior of patients with primary glaucoma.
Objective To evaluate the results of operative treatment of acetabular fractures and to investigate its influence factors. Methods The cl inical data were analyzed retrospectively from 82 patients with acetabular fractures treated between September 2004 and June 2009. Of 82 patients, 65 were male and 17 were female, aged 26-72 years (mean, 38 years).Fractures were caused by traffic accident in 62 cases, by crush in 13 cases, and by fall ing from height in 7 cases. The time from injury to admission was 30 minutes to 12 days (median, 7.6 hours) in 70 cases, 12 cases were transferred because poor result after 34-67 days of conservative treatment. According to Judet classification, there were 24 cases of posterior wall fracture, 3 cases of posterior column fracture, 1 case of anterior wall fracture, 2 cases of anterior column fracture, 6 cases of transverse fracture, 16 cases of transverse and posterior wall fracture, 4 cases of posterior column and posterior wall fracture, 5 cases of T-type fracture, 3 cases of anterior and posterior hemitransverse fracture, and 18 cases of complete both-column fracture; 24 cases combined with dislocation of the hip. During operation, Kocher-Langenbeck approach was used in 49 cases, anterior il ioinguinal approach in 19 cases, and the combination of anterior and posterior approaches in 14 cases. Reconstructive plate (74 cases) and hollow lag screw (8 cases) internal fixation were used. The function of the hip was evaluated according to the modified Merled’Aubigne- Postel hip score system postoperatively. According to fracture type, age, lower extremity fracture before operation, qual ity of reduction, timing of surgery, hi p dislocation and time of reduction, operative approach, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), and heterotopic ossification (HO), the patients were divided into the groups and the results were compared. Results Accordancewith the Matta X-ray evaluation criteria, anatomic reduction was achieved in 21 cases, good reduction in 37 cases, fair reduction in 16 cases, and poor reduction in 8 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 71%. All the cases were followed up 12-52 months mean, 34 months). Iatrogenic sciatic nerve injury occurred in 8 cases, infection in 3 cases, HO in 16 cases, DVT in 3 cases, hip posttraumatic arthritis in 12 cases, and avascular necrosis of the femoral head in 9 cases. X-ray examination showed that 80 cases achieved fracture union at 10-24 weeks after operation (mean, 14 weeks) and 2 cases had fracture delayed union at 10 months and 12 months after operation. According to the modified Merled’Aubigne-Postel hip score system, the function of the hip was rated as excellent in 26 cases, good in 32, fair in 20, and poor in 4 at 6 months after operation; the excellent and good rate was 71%. The affecting factors of cl inical results of acetabular fractures were fracture type, age, lower extremity fracture before operation, qual ity of reduction, timing of surgery, hip dislocation and time of reduction (P lt; 0.05). However the operative approach, DVT, and HO were not affecting factor of the acetabular fractures (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Operative treatment of acetabular fractures has a satisfying therapeutic effect. Fracture type, age, lower extremity fracture before operation, qual ity of reduction, timing of surgery, hip dislocation, and time of reduction are risk factors affecting postoperative results.
ObjectiveTo investigate the fatigue of asthma patients, and to analyze its influencing factors, and provide a reference for clinical intervention.MethodsThe convenience sampling method was adopted to select asthma patients who were in clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from November 2018 to March 2019. The patients’ lung function were measured. And questionnaires were conducted, including general data questionnaire, Chinese version of Checklist Individual Strength-Fatigue, Asthma Control Test, Chinese version of Self-rating Depression Scale. Relevant data were collected for multiple stepwise linear regression analysis.ResultsFinally, 120 patients were enrolled. The results of multiple stepwise linear regression analysis showed that age, education level, place of residence, time period of frequent asthma symptoms, degree of small airway obstruction, Asthma Control Test score and degree of depression were the influencing factors of fatigue in asthma patients (P≤0.05). Multivariate linear stepwise regression analysis showed that degree of small airway obstruction, degree of depression and time period of frequent asthma symptoms were the main influencing factors of fatigue in asthma patients, which could explain 51.8% of the variance of fatigue (ΔR2=0.518).ConclusionsThe incidence of fatigue in asthma patients is at a relatively high level. Medical staff should pay attention to the symptoms of fatigue in asthma patients. For asthma patients, it is recommended to strengthen standardized diagnosis and treatment, reduce the onset of symptoms at night and eliminate small airway obstruction. Psychological intervention methods are needed to improve patients’ depression, reduce fatigue symptoms, and improve quality of life.
