Objective To discuss the role of traditional Chinese medicine in community health education of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods 124 patients of DN were randomly recruited into an observation group and a control group, with 62 patients in each group. The patients in the observation group participated in TCM health care education voluntarily, while the patients in the control group did not take any TCM education health care. Questionnaires were used to investigate relative knowledge to DN and demands and suggestions to TCM education health care. Results Patients in the observation groups had an obviously better understanding to DN knowledge than before. The therapeutic effects in the observation group were significantly better than the control group (λ2=3.376, P<0.01). Conclusion The application of TCM health education in community DN patients will effectively enhance the cognition of the patients to DN, and will also promote the therapeutic effects of DN treatment outside hospital.

Objective: To study and compare the views on cancer associated information and communication needs of cancer patients among cancer patients, their relatives, doctors and nurses, and other groups of people. Methods: A total of 501 cancer patients, 169 relatives,86 doctors and nurses, 176 healthy elderly people and 505 first grade college stu- dents were asked to complete the Information Preference Questionnaire of Cancer Patients and 2 questions regarding gen- eral information amount and content (IPQCP+2), and the Information Need Questionnaire (INQ). The elderly and the stu- dents were asked to complete two sets of IPQCP+2 and INQ in two roles: one as themselves and the other as patients. All data were analyzed in detail. Results: The views of different groups are significantly different. The differences include the viewpoints on whether to disclose the diagnosis of cancer and to inform the life expectancy to cancer patients, and whether the patients should participate in decisions about their medical care and treatments. The mean score of IPQCP on the over- all items and the 4 dimensions of all groups, and their opinions on general information amount and content for patients are significantly different. Conclusion: The views of different groups of people on cancer associated information and commu- nication needs of cancer patients are different. The views and requests of cancer patients themselves are the basis of doc- tor- patient communication. The prevention of cancer should be based on the characteristics of different groups of people and the patients’views should be considered.

Objectives:To study the satisfaction with doctor-patient communication among cancer patients, their relatives and medical staffs, and its associated factors.Methods:A total of 423 cancer patients were asked to rate their satisfaction with information communication, to complete the Information Need Questionnaire (INQ), the Demographic Questionnaire (DQ), and 4 questions regarding general information amount and content the patients got and wanted respectively. 82 relatives, 86 medical staffs were also asked to rate their satisfaction with information communication.Results:A certain proportion of cancer patients, their relatives and medical staffs were not very satisfied with their information communication. There are significant differences among them. The satisfaction of medical staffs was less. It suggests that they want to improve their communication level. Satisfaction with information communication of cancer patients was affected by the contents and styles of information communication, and whether their communication experiences met their preferences.Conclusions:Before providing information to cancer patients, we need to consider the style they want and to find out their needs and preferences.

Objectives: To develop and evaluate the Psychological Adjustment Scale for Cancer Patients (PASCP).Methods: A self-report rating scale was developed with structured methods. A total of 557 cancer patients were asked to complete the scale and evaluate the importance of each item. And 183 relatives and 96 doctors and nurses were also asked to evaluate the importance of each item. The scale was refined and its reliability, validity and responsiveness were evaluated. Results: (1)PASCP was finally refined as a scale with 36-item, 5 dimensions including the impact on emotion/self-esteem, self-perception, daily life, relationship with others/social life, others, and an item to value the general psychological adjustment after the patients were diagnosed with cancer. (2)The scale had good content validity. Its construct was consistent with the concept designed. The factor loading spectrum and ANOVA are 0.63-0.79 and 7.44, 0.67-0.76 and 5.42, 0.69-0.88 and 4.77, 0.66-0.91 and 4.77, 0.63-0.80 and 4.38 respectively. The criterion validity with HAD and FLIC were 0.78 and 0.69 respectively. (3)The test-retest coefficients for the 5 dimensions and the total score were 0.83、0.82、0.86、0.78、0.76 and 0.89 respectively;Cronbach ? for them were 0.83, 0.86, 0.80, 0.78, 0.69 and 0.89 respectively. The split-half reliability for the scale was 0.93. 4.The scale could reflect the changes of the patients' psychological adjustment before and after treatment and recovery. Conclusion:PASCP has high validity, reliability and responsiveness. It is applicable in clinical practice in China.
