Background and Aims:Surgical treatment is a cornerstone of breast cancer management;however,the physical trauma and psychological burden associated with surgery may adversely affect patients'quality of life(QoL).Based on data from a prospective cohort,this study was conducted to evaluate changes in postoperative QoL among breast cancer patients and to identify mediating factors influencing QoL,thereby providing evidence for perioperative rehabilitation strategies.Methods:Female breast cancer patients who underwent local surgical treatment at Suining Central Hospital between June 2024 and January 2025 were enrolled.The Constant-Murley Shoulder Score,EORTC QLQ-C30,and QLQ-BR23 questionnaires were used pre-and postoperatively to assess shoulder joint function,and QoL.Paired t-tests were used to analyze changes in scores before and after surgery.A mediation model was applied to explore the indirect pathways through which surgery impacts QoL.Additionally,subgroup analyses were conducted to compare QoL changes across different surgical modalities.Results:A total of 148 patients were included,with median age of 54(46-60)years old Postoperative psychological health significantly improved,while shoulder function and overall QoL scores markedly declined(all P<0.001).According to QLQ-C30,functional domains such as physical and role functioning worsened,while symptom burden increased.The QLQ-BR23 revealed significantly higher scores for breast and upper limb symptoms postoperatively(both P<0.001).Subgroup analyses showed that patients undergoing axillary lymph node dissection experienced greater declines in shoulder function and QoL compared to those receiving sentinel lymph node biopsy(both P<0.05).QoL deterioration was comparable between mastectomy and breast-conserving surgery,although the former was associated with more prominent pain and breast symptoms.Mediation analysis indicated that shoulder function,breast symptoms,and physical functioning served as mediators in the impact of surgery on QoL,while better psychological health exerted a protective effect.Conclusion:Surgical treatment significantly affects postoperative QoL in breast cancer patients,with local functional impairment and symptom exacerbation serving as key mediators.Different surgical approaches have varying impacts on QoL.Enhancing postoperative shoulder rehabilitation,symptom management,and psychological support may improve patients'QoL.

Objective Hepatitis c patients with HCV RNA loads and anti HCV and liver function index of correlation.Methods Retrospective analysis in January 2011 to December 2013 in our hospital outpatient,hospital,medical examination in patients with hepatitis c antibody positive,male 150,female 229,age 32-87,application of real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR detection of HCV RNA viruses,automatic biochemical analyzer test liver function 8 indicators,according to the number of HCV RNA viral load points HCV RNA negative groups,HCV RNA in the low level group,high levels of HCV RNA.Results Three groups of age distribution proportion by the statistical test has no obvious difference (P > 0.05),but low in the proportion of women is slightly higher than that of males,Three groups of liver function and biochemical indicators is not identical results (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01),of which the HCV RNA in the low level group and high level of serum ALT,AST,GGT and ALP,TBIL compared with negative groups have difference (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01) ; TP,propagated,DBIL comparison,though no significant statistical differences between the three groups,but the low level and high level group results in a downward trend,in the low level and high level group comparison ALT,AST,TBIL also have obvious difference (P < 0.05),viral load,the higher the ALT,AST results,after treatment with interferon with loads of decline index of liver enzymes.Conclusion No matter the discretion of the viral load to last as long as HCV RNA positive,can cause the damage of liver cells and liver function abnormalities,clinical should be antiviral treatment as soon as possible.Real-time PCR fluorescence probe technique is advanced,mature technology,stable results,to early diagnosis of HCV infection,help clinical early antiviral treatment,prevent the spread of HCV and development.
