Objective To explore the Influence of different health education approaches to standard anticoagulation of non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Methods 400 patients with NVAF were randomly divided into the research group (n=200) and the control group (n=200). Baseline clinical information was recorded. Both groups were given regular education and treatment. The control group was randomly divided into two subgroups. One subgroup (patients or/and family members) was given knowledge lectures of atrial fibrillation, atrial fibrillation anticoagulant, and application of warfarin. The other was given the knowledge through booklets. Standard anticoagulation fulfillment rate, ischemic stroke, other events of artery embolism, major bleeding, minor bleeding and death in the two groups were observed after 1 year. The cost for different education approaches was also compared between the 2 subgroups. Results (1)In the research group, standard anticoagulation fullfillment rate (40.53%) was higher than that of the control group(15.96%) (P<0.01). The rate of ischemic stroke (2.63%) was also lower than the control group (4.49%) (χ2=4.49, P<0.05). The death rate was lower in the research group than those in the control group, but minor bleeding rate was higher, without statistically significance (P>0.05).Other artery embolism rate , major bleeding, minor bleeding, death rate had no statistical difference. (2)Knowledge lecture group (10.8±1.0 min) spend more time than the booklet group (1.0±0.5 min) (P<0.01). The booklet group (5.1±1.1 yuan) costed more in terms of money than the knowledge lecture group (1.8±0.5 yuan) (P<0.01). (3)The knowledge lecture group showed higher standard anticoagulation fulfillment rate (47.96%) than that of booklet group (32.60%) (χ2=7.33, P<0.01). There was no statistical difference in ischemic stroke rate, other artery embolism rate, major bleeding rate, minor bleeding rate and the death rate. Conclusions Detailed, correct anticoagulant education and guidance can improve NVAF patients with standard anticoagulation, and reduce the risk of ischemic stroke. Knowledge lecture consumes more time but can improve the standard anticoagulation fulfillment rate.

Mindfulness training has shown beneficial effects on cognitive functions in older adults.Howev-er,the studies on this topic have used different methods and populations,and their results were inconsistent.No sys-tematic review has synthesized and evaluated these findings.This review aims to address this gap by categorizing the studies based on the training methods and cohorts of older adults,and summarizing the effects of mindfulness training on cognitive function.The review finds that mindfulness training had different effects depending on the lev-el of cognitive decline and the training method.Both standardized and unstandardized training methods improved cognitive performance in older adults with normal or subjective cognitive decline.However,the effect of mindful-ness training diminished as cognitive decline worsened,being inconsistent in mild cognitive impairment and non-sig-nificant in dementia.The review also discusses the possible mechanisms and suggested directions for future re-search.
