Objective To identify the factors associated with frailty in lung transplant patients by a meta-analysis.Methods Computerized search was performed for studies on the influencing factors of frailty in lung transplant patients in the CNKI,WanFangData,VIP,CBM,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Elsevier ScienceDirect and CINAHL databases.The search was conducted from the time of database construction to November 2023.Literature screening,quality assessment,and data extraction were performed independently by 2 investigators,and Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 17.0 software.Results 10 cohort studies,including 1 999 patients,were finally included,and 13 influencing factors were extracted,including advanced age(OR=1.05),female(OR=2.50),BMI(OR=0.38),diagnosis of primary pulmonary disease(OR=2.90),6MWD(OR=0.34),and lung allocation score(OR=0.69),FVC(OR=0.60),pre-transplant frailty(OR=0.81),hypoproteinemia(OR=4.12),hemoglobin(OR=0.50),anemia(OR=4.37),length of ICU stay(OR=1.24),and total length of stay(OR=1.05).Short Physical Performance Battery is an assessment tool for frailty in lung transplant patients,with an incidence of frailty in 24%before transplantation and 50%in post-transplantation.Fried Frailty Phenotype is an assessment tool for frailty in lung transplant patients,with a pre-transplant frailty incidence of 30%.Conclusion There are many factors involved in the incidence of frailty in lung transplant patients,and nursing staff should dynamically evaluate the frailty of lung transplant patients,and give individualized and precise interventions in combination with a multidisciplinary model to improve or delay the progression of frailty.

Objective To evaluate the effect of remote interventions with digital health technologies in lung transplant patients.Methods Databases,including CKNI,Wangfang,VIP,CMB,Cochrane Library,PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Scopus and BMJ Best Practice were searched from their inception to July 2023.There were 2 researchers who independently screened and extracted the literature,and then evaluated quality of the included studies.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2.Results 10 studies with 1 262 patients were included.The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with conventional intervention,remote intervention based on digital health technology could improve self-monitoring compliance of lung transplant patients[0R=0.64,95%CI(0.46,0.88),P=0.006],improve quality of life including mental health status[OR=3.08,95%CI(0.41,5.74),P=0.020]and physical health status[OR=3.81,95%CI(1.19,6.43),P=0.004].In terms of the intervention forms,the application-based remote intervention had better self-monitoring compliance,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.007).However,in terms of the comparison of readmission rate[OR=1.73,95%CI(0.98,3.04),P=0.060],anxiety[OR=-0.12,95%CI(-1.36,1.11),P=0.850],and depression[OR=0.62,95%CI(-0.80,2.03),P=0.390],the effect of intervention was unclear.Conclusion Remote intervention based on digital health technology can improve self-monitoring compliance and quality of life in lung transplant patients;applications are the optimal form of intervention.Limited by the quality and quantity of included studies and the heterogeneity of study results,more high-quality studies are needed to further verify the effects of digital health technology on readmission rates,anxiety and depression of lung transplant patients.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of post-transplant diabetes mellitus(PTDM)in adult lung transplant recipients.Methods Conducting a convenience sampling method,we retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of lung transplant recipients from January 2020 to December 2022 at a tertiary A hospital in Hangzhou,Zhejiang Province.According to the PTDM diagnostic criteria,lung transplant recipients are divided into a PTDM group and a non-PTDM group.The incidence rate of PTDM is calculated,and the influencing factors for PTDM occurrence are analyzed using both univariate and multivariate logistic regression methods.Results A total of 140 patients were included in this study,and 54 lung transplant recipients developed PTDM within 6 months,with an incidence of 38.57%.Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age,gender,BMI,smoking history,pre-operative glycated albumin,pre-operative fasting blood glucose,early post-operative blood glucose and pre-operative creatinine between the 2 groups(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic analysis showed that gender(OR=5.283),BMI(OR=6.122),pre-operative glycated albumin(OR=1.330),and early post-operative blood glucose(0R=1.444)were the influencing factors.Conclusion Lung transplant recipients who were male,BMI ≥24.0,with high levels of glycated albumin before surgery,and high blood sugar early after surgery had a higher risk of developing PTDM.Clinical nurses can formulate relevant nursing measures according to the influencing factors to prevent the occurrence of PTDM.
