Objective:To analyze the effect of comprehensive nursing education on anxiety, depression, quality of life and survival of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after surgery.Methods:A total of 136 HCC patients were randomly divided into two groups: general nursing education group and comprehensive nursing education group. The comprehensive nursing education group carried out 12 months of health belief education, psychological care, care activities and telephone condolence. The routine nursing group received basic education for 12 months. The changes of anxiety and depression were assessed by hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). The quality of life (QOL) of participants within 12 months was assessed using the European research and treatment cancer quality of life questionnaire (QLQ-C30). The 3-year survival of the two groups was compared.Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in baseline data. At the 9th and 12th month, the HADS-A score of the comprehensive nursing education group was significantly lower than that of the general nursing group ( P< 0.05). In the 12th month, the overall health of QLQ-C30 in the comprehensive nursing education group was better than that in the general nursing group ( P<0.05). The QLQ-C30 function score of the comprehensive nursing education group at the 12th month was better than that of the general nursing group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in QLQ-C30 symptom scores between the two groups at all time points ( P>0.05). The overall survival of the patients in the comprehensive nursing education group was better than that in the general nursing group ( P=0.026). Conclusion:the comprehensive nursing education can reduce the anxiety and depression of HCC patients after surgery, and can improve their quality of life and survival.

Objective To investigate the diet-related influencing factors in patients with gallbladder stone. Methods Forty patients with gallbladder stone who were admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between July 2015 and September 2015 were enrolled in this prospective study, as the stone group. Another 40 healthy people were selected as the control group. The informed consents of patients in two groups were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to compare the baseline data, body mass index, serum lipid level, dietary composition, living habit and dietary intake between two groups. Normally-distributed data of two groups were compared by t test, and the rates were compared by Chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability test. Results A majority of patients in the stone group were farmers with junior education background, living in rural areas. The high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level in the stone group was (1.1±0.3) mmol/L, significantly lower than (1.4±0.4) mmol/L in the control group (t= -3.616, P<0.05). The apolipoprotein A (apoA) level in the stone group was (1.27±0.16) g/L, significantly higher than (1.09±0.27) g/L in the control group (t=2.947, P<0.05). The percentage of eating fat pork in the stone group was 80% (32/40), significantly higher than 35% (14/40) in the control group (χ2=8.286, P<0.05). The percentage of eating cereals and dairy products in the stone group was respectively 10% (4/40) and 20% (8/40), significantly lower than 80% (32/40) and 90% (36/40) in the control group (χ2=19.789, 19.789; P<0.05). There were significant differences in the preference for fatty diet, dietary composition, drinking habit, breakfast habit, eating habit, smoking habit, hand-washing habit and exercise time between two groups (P<0.05). The daily intake of water, dairy products and fruits in the stone group was respectively (743±379) ml, (33±4) g and (128±39) g, significantly less than (1 410±406) ml, (233±88) g and (275±43) g in the control group (t=-5.373, -7.790, -3.293; P<0.05). The daily intake of poultry and edible oil in the stone group was respectively (112±35) and (43±12) g, significantly higher than (21±8) and (22±9) g in the control group (t=4.706, 8.854; P<0.05). Conclusions Lack of diet-related knowledge, high-fat and low-protein diet, irregular eating habit, insufficient drinking water and lack of exercise may probably be correlated with the incidence of gallbladder stone.
