Objective:To analyze the risk factors associated with future exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who have no history of exacerbation in the past year.Methods:COPD patients with no exacerbation history in the past year, registered in the RealDTC study from January 2018 to December 2023, were enrolled. Demographic data, COPD Assessment Test (CAT) scores, modified Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea questionnaire scores, forced expiratory volume in the first second predicted of percentage (FEV 1%pred), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1) to forced vital capacity (FVC), Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) classification, GOLD groups, and inhaled medication regimens were collected. All patients were followed up for one year, and the number of exacerbations was recorded. Patients were divided into an exacerbation group and a non-exacerbation group based on the occurrence of exacerbations during the follow-up period. Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the influencing factors for exacerbations in COPD patients. Results:A total of 2 901 COPD patients were included, among which 633 patients (21.8%) experienced exacerbations during the follow-up period. Compared with the non-exacerbation group, patients in the exacerbation group were older, with higher CAT and mMRC scores, lower body mass index (BMI), FEV 1%pred, and FEV 1/FVC. The proportions of patients with high school education or above and those using long-acting β 2-agonist (LABA) + long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) medications were also lower (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.010, 95% CI: 1.000-1.021), CAT score ≥20 ( OR=1.415, 95% CI: 1.074-1.865), education level of junior high school or below ( OR=1.243, 95% CI: 1.003-1.540), LABA + LAMA inhalation ( OR=0.605, 95% CI: 0.432-0.848), and BMI ( OR=0.969, 95% CI: 0.943-0.995) were independent risk factors for future exacerbations in COPD patients with no exacerbation history in the past year (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The risk of future exacerbations remains high in COPD patients with no exacerbation history in the past year. High CAT scores, low education levels, and low BMI are associated with future exacerbations. Clinicians should pay close attention to the management of such patients and implement appropriate interventions.

Objective? To explore the effects of motivational interviewing rehabilitation transitional care based on action research on rehabilitation and functional recovery among stroke patients. Methods? From January 2017 to December 2017, we selected 80 stroke patients treated in Xinyang Central Hospital as subjects by convenience sampling. All the patients were divided into control group (n=40, routine discharge nursing for 12 months) and observation group (n=40, motivational interviewing rehabilitation transitional care based on action research for 12 months) with the random number table. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Activity of Daily Living (ADL) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) were used to evaluate the recovery of nerve function, motor function, ADL and depression of patients at discharge and 6 months after discharge, and we also compared the satisfaction with nursing between two groups. Results? At discharge, there were no statistical differences in the scores of NIHSS, FMA, ADL and HAMD of patients between two groups (P＞0.05). Six months after discharge, the scores of NIHSS, ADL and HAMD of patients in observation group were lower than those in control group;the score of FMA in observation group was higher than that in control group all with statistical differences (P＜0.01),and the satisfaction rate of the observation group was higher than that of control group with statistical difference (P＜0.01). Conclusions? The motivational interviewing rehabilitation transitional care based on action research can accelerate the process of rehabilitation of stroke patients, relieve depression, improve their ADL, quality of life and satisfaction with nursing.
