文摘BACKGROUND Parkinson’s disease(PD)is commonly accompanied by neuropsychiatric symptoms,such as anxiety and depression,which can significantly impair patients’cognitive function,social engagement,and quality of life.Psychological resilience has been identified as a critical factor influencing the severity of these emotional disturbances.AIM To explore the relationship between anxiety-depression status and psychological resilience in patients with PD and to identify associated risk factors.METHODS A total of 188 consecutive patients with PD treated at our institution between January 2023 and December 2024 were enrolled.Anxiety was assessed using the Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI),depressive symptoms were measured with the Geriatric Depression scale(GDS),and psychological resilience was evaluated using the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC).Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the relationships among these variables.Furthermore,clinical and sociodemographic characteristics-including gender,age,disease duration,disease severity,comorbidity burden,marital status,gross monthly household income,and educational attainment-were analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate binary logistic regression to identify the factors influencing psychological resilience.RESULTS The mean BAI score was 22.05±10.52(indicative of moderate anxiety),the mean GDS score was 15.81±5.49(mild depression),and the mean CD-RISC score was 51.03±9.32(moderate resilience).Correlational analysis revealed an inverse relationship between psychological resilience and both anxiety and depression scores,whereas anxiety and depression were positively correlated.Univariate analysis identified disease duration,disease severity,comorbidity burden,gross monthly household income,educational attainment,BAI scores,and GDS scores as variables significantly associated with psychological resilience.Multivariate regression analysis showed that advanced disease stage,a high comorbidity burden,lower gross monthly household income,lower educational attainment,and elevated anxiety and depression scores were independent predictors of reduced psychological resilience.CONCLUSION The findings highlight the prevalence of anxiety and depression among patients with PD and the presence of moderate psychological resilience.Patients with advanced disease stages,multiple comorbidities,lower socioeconomic status,limited education,and higher anxiety and depression scores are particularly vulnerable to diminished psychological resilience.
文摘BACKGROUND Epilepsy is a nervous system disease characterized by recurrent attacks,a long disease course,and an unfavorable prognosis.It is associated with an enduring therapeutic process,and finding a cure has been difficult.Patients with epilepsy are predisposed to adverse moods,such as resistance,anxiety,nervousness,and anxiety,which compromise treatment compliance and overall efficacy.AIM To explored the influence of intensive psychological intervention on treatment compliance,psychological status,and quality of life(QOL)of patients with epilepsy.METHODS The clinical data of 105 patients with epilepsy admitted between December 2019 and July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,including those of 50 patients who underwent routine intervention(control group)and 55 who underwent intensive psychological intervention(research group).Treatment compliance,psychological status based on the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)and Depression Scale Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)scores,hope level assessed using the Herth Hope Scale(HHS),psychological resilience evaluated using the Psychological Resilience Scale,and QOL determined using the QOL in Epilepsy-31 Inventory(QOLIE-31)were comparatively analyzed.RESULTS Treatment compliance in the research group was 85.5%,which is significantly better than the 68.0%of the control group.No notable intergroup differences in preinterventional SAS and SDS scores were identified(P>0.05);however,after the intervention,the SAS and SDS scores decreased significantly in the two groups,especially in the research group(P<0.05).The two groups also exhibited no significant differences in preinterventional HHS,Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC),and QOLIE-31 scores(P>0.05).After 6 months of intervention,the research group showed evidently higher HHS,CD-RISC,tenacity,optimism,strength,and QOLIE-31 scores(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Intensive psychological intervention enhances treatment compliance,psychological status,and QOL of patients with epilepsy.

文摘Objective:To evaluate the value of rehabilitation nursing based on mind mapping model combined with psychological intervention for patients with nephrotic syndrome(NS).Methods:A total of 60 patients with NS who visited our hospital from January 2024 to December 2024 were selected as samples and randomly divided into groups.The observation group received rehabilitation nursing based on the mind mapping model combined with psychological intervention,while the control group received routine intervention.The differences in emotional scores,self-care ability scores,compliance,and complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The anxiety(SAS)and depression(SDS)scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group,while the self-care ability scale(ESCA)score was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).The compliance rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).The complication rate of NS in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Rehabilitation nursing based on the mind mapping model combined with psychological intervention can enhance self-care ability,reduce negative emotions,and reduce complications in NS nursing,which is efficient and feasible.
文摘BACKGROUND The intensive care unit(ICU)is a core hospital unit for critically ill patients.A high-intensity treatment environment,frequent invasive procedures,and isolation from family members often lead to severe psychological stress reactions in patients,including anxiety,depression,and posttraumatic stress disorder.Studies have reported that up to 50%of patients in the ICU experience varying degrees of psychological disorders,leading to reduced treatment compliance and exacerbated metabolic disorders through neuroendocrine pathways,thereby negatively affecting prognosis.AIM To investigate the influence of psychological nursing interventions on psychological status and all-cause mortality among patients admitted to the ICU.METHODS Data were obtained from 100 patients with nutritional risk in the ICU of the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture,admitted from June 2021 to June 2023.They were randomly divided into two groups(n=50 each)based on nursing intervention:Control and study groups.At follow-up,the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)and the Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)were used.All-cause mortality and time to death were compared between the two groups.The relationship between psychological status and all-cause mortality was assessed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model.RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in SAS and SDS scores between the two groups before the nursing intervention(P>0.05).However,after the psychological intervention,the SAS and SDS scores of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The all-cause mortality rates in the study and control groups were 20%and 40%,respectively(P<0.05),indicating that psychological nursing interventions can significantly reduce all-cause mortality and improve clinical outcomes.Cox proportional hazards regression analysis revealed that a good psychological state reduced all-cause mortality(P<0.05).Nursing satisfaction in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),indicating a high level of recognition of the psychological intervention.CONCLUSION Psychological nursing interventions can effectively reduce the incidence of anxiety and depression in ICU patients with nutritional risk,improve their psychological state,reduce all-cause mortality,and improve their prognoses.
文摘BACKGROUND Cancer patients with an implanted venous access port(IVAP)often manage their care at home during chemotherapy intervals,including maintaining the device,monitoring complications,and following medication instructions.Home care ensures continued support after discharge.However,due to factors such as age,gender,culture,psychological status,and family support,the quality of home care varies significantly.Understanding these factors can help provide targeted guidance to improve the care of cancer patients.AIM To explore IVAP chemotherapy on home care quality and its association with mental health and family support for cancer patients.METHODS This investigative study was based on a medical records system.It investigated the relationship between psychological status,family support,and home care quality in 180 patients with cancer undergoing IVAP chemotherapy.Psychological status was assessed using the State Anxiety Inventory(S-AI);family support was assessed using the Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS),and home care quality was evaluated using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire(EORTC QLQ-C30).Pearson’s correlation and Structural Equation Modeling were used to analyze the interplay between these factors.RESULTS The average S-AI score was 47.52±14.47,PSSS was 52.48±12.64,and EORTC QLQ-C30 was 70.09±17.32.A substantial inverse relationship was observed between the EORTC QLQ-C30 and S-AI scores(r=-0.712).A significant positive correlation was found between the EORTC QLQ-C30 and the PSSS,with a correlation coefficient of(r=0.744).The multiple linear regression analysis indicated that family social support,psychological status,and average monthly family income were the main factors influencing the variation in the quality of home care,explaining 71.9%of the variation.The Structural Equation Modeling results indicated that psychological status acted as a partial mediator in the association between family social support and home care quality of life,explaining 32.78%of the mediation effect.CONCLUSION Psychological status and family social support positively impacted cancer patients’home care quality,with psychology partially mediating this effect.

文摘Objective:To investigate the impact of precise nursing care based on dynamic nursing quality feedback model on the postoperative recovery of elderly patients undergoing radical resection for colon cancer,with a particular focus on its effects on psychological flexibility.Methods:Medical records of 124 elderly patients undergoing radical resection for colon cancer at The First Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College between January 2021 and May 2024 were retrospectively analyzed in this study.Based on the received nursing interventions,the patients were divided into a control group(standard nursing care)and an observation group(precise nursing care based on a dynamic nursing quality feedback model).Results:The observation group exhibited significantly higher levels of hemoglobin,prealbumin,and albumin compared to the control group.Additionally,the observation group had lower scores in somatization,interpersonal sensitivity,depression,anxiety,obsessions-compulsions,hostility,phobic anxiety,psychoticism,and paranoid ideation.The observation group also demonstrated higher scores in active coping,self-efficacy,and the management of emotions,life,and symptoms.Improvements were also observed in nursing quality,perioperative intervention,satisfaction with rehabilitation guidance,and awareness of regular reexaminations,diet intervention,and complication prevention(all with P<0.05).Conclusion:Precise nursing based on a dynamic nursing quality feedback model can improve nutritional status and medical coping style,reduce psychological issues,and enhance self-management abilities in elderly patients following radical resection of colon cancer.Additionally,it increases nursing satisfaction and raises awareness regarding the importance of regular reexaminations and complication prevention.
文摘Objectives:Character strengths use has been studied in WEIRD(Western,Educated,Industrialized,Rich,and Democratic)societies,where it is related to happiness,resilience,and reduced distress.However,this rela-tionship in harsh living conditions remains unstudied.This study aims to examine the relationship between character strengths use and psychological well-being among slum dwellers in the Philippines,where harsh living conditions can create severe psychological challenges.Methods:A correlational analysis was conducted in a slum community in Cavite City,Philippines,with 120 participants completing self-report questionnaires,including the Strengths Use Scale(SUS),Flourishing Scale(FS),and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale(K10).Correlation and regression analyses examined whether strengths use predicts psychological well-being while controlling for psychological distress and demographic factors such as family monthly income.Results:A significant positive correlation was found between strengths use and psychological well-being(r=0.39,p<0.01),and hierarchical linear regression analysis confirmed that SUS significantly predicted FS(β=0.37,95%CI=[0.08,0.22]).Despite experiencing high levels of psychological distress(Mean=27.22,SD=6.78),participants demonstrated relatively higher FS scores compared to more privileged Filipino student samples.These findings suggest that character strengths use act as psychological resources even in challenging environments.Conclusions:The study supports the Dual-Factor Model of Mental Health,showing that well-being and ill-being can coexist.Strengths use may help slum dwellers cope with ongoing challenges,highlighting the potential of strengths-based interventions to foster resilience and well-being in high-adversity urban slum settings.Future research should explore how family and cultural values support well-being in difficult environments.
文摘This review explored the application and effectiveness of and research gaps in integrative psychological support in patients undergoing cardiac surgery during the perioperative period.These patients often encounter psychological issues such as anxiety and depression,which affect their postoperative recovery and quality of life.Previous research indicated that preoperative psychological assessments and interventions significantly enhance patients’psychological states and posto-perative outcomes.Interventions,including preoperative education,mindfulness-based stress reduction,and cognitive training,have proven effective in reducing the incidence of postoperative delirium and anxiety.Intraoperative environment optimization(e.g.,music therapy)and postoperative psychological support(e.g.,family visits and psychological interventions in intensive care unit psychological interventions)positively influence patient recovery.Furthermore,theory-based nursing interventions and digital health tools(e.g.,remote monitoring applica-tions)offer new directions for psychological support.However,challenges,inclu-ding fragmented psychological support,insufficient cross-stage integration,and inadequate training,remain in current nursing practices.Future research should focus on developing standardized psychological support pathways,enhancing multidisciplinary collaboration,and verifying the long-term effects of digital the-rapeutics.
文摘This study systematically analyzes the influence mechanism of psychological factors on the competition performance of badminton athletes in capital universities through the recent actual participation of university teams in college badminton matches and combined with high-quality literature.The study finds that anxiety,self-efficacy,and factors from audiences and referees are the main influencing variables,and significant gender differences exist.Based on the empirical research results,a psychological intervention program combining mindfulness training,virtual reality technology,and biofeedback training is proposed to provide a scientific basis for psychological training of college badminton athletes.
文摘Thyroid cancer is a common endocrine malignancy with a rising incidence.Pa-tients often suffer from mental pain due to concerns about recurrence,treatment-related side-effect,and body image changes.Demographic factors like age,gender,physiological factors such as somatic symptoms and disease stage,co-gnitive-regulatory factors including negative and positive thinking,and social factors like work,economy,education level,and social support all influence their mental state.Existing interventions,including nursing,psychological,and tra-ditional Chinese medicine-based methods,have some benefits but face limitations like short-term effectiveness and lack of standardization.Future research should focus on creating better-defined,long-term,and widely applicable intervention programs and explore positive psychology-based approaches to improve patients'mental well-being and quality of life.
