Objective To explore the time-varying pattern of potential symptoms in breast cancer patient before and after chemotherapy,and further analyze its influencing factors,aims to provide reference for clinical nursing practice.Methods 233 cases of breast cancer in a tertiary A hospital in Ningxia from June to October,2023 were selected as the research subjects.By the general information questionnaire and the Chinese version of Anderson Symptom Assessment Scale,the potential change of symptoms of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy 1-3 days before the first chemotherapy(T1,233 cases)and 7-14 days after the third or fourth chemotherapy(T2,225 cases)was analyzed.Results 225 cases of breast cancer patients completed 2 surveys,and their symptom characteristics before and after chemotherapy can be divided into 2 categories:a high symptom troubled group and a low symptom troubled group.The high-symptom troubled group has strong stability,and the probability of maintaining the original group is 85.20%,while the low-symptom troubled group is more inclined to change to the high-symptom troubled group,and the transition probability is 26.60%.Logistic regression analysis showed that the mass was located on the left side,and the patients who obtained disease knowledge mainly through the Internet were more likely to change from the high symptom troubled group to the low symptom troubled group,while the patients who were employed,with unsatisfactory sleep at night,and never exercised were more likely to change from the low symptom troubled group to the high symptom troubled group.Conclusion The symptoms of breast cancer patients before and after chemotherapy are heterogeneous.Patients who are on the job,have unsatisfied sleep at night and never exercise are more likely to change from the low-symptom troubled group to the high-symptom troubled group,which suggests that medical staff should identify potential high-risk groups at an early stage,and make full use of the predictive function of symptom characteristics to carry out individualized management based on the dynamic monitoring of symptoms according to different types of population characteristics,so as to reduce the burden of symptoms and improve their quality of life.

Objective:To explore the potential categories of symptom characteristics of early breast cancer patients undergoing postoperative chemotherapy, analyze the differences of symptoms among different categories of patients, and compare their quality of life according to different categories.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. From January to June 2023, 240 patients with early breast cancer who received chemotherapy after surgery in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University were selected by convenience sampling. They were investigated by general information questionnaire, Memory Symptom Assessment Scale, and Functional Assessment of Caner Therapy-Breast Cancer. Mplus 8.3 was used to carry out potential profile analysis and identify the potential categories of symptom characteristics of early breast cancer patients undergoing postoperative chemotherapy. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors of symptom characteristics. SPSS 26.0 software was used to compare the differences in quality of life scores of patients undergoing postoperative chemotherapy for different categories of early breast cancer.Results:Totally 233 valid questionnaires were ultimately collected, with an age of 50.85 ± 8.09. There were two potential categories of postoperative chemotherapy patients with early breast cancer: low symptom troubled group (159 cases, 68.2%) and high symptom troubled group (74 cases, 31.8%). The quality of life score of the high symptom distress group was (76.84 ± 13.15) points, which was significantly lower than (89.56 ± 11.29) points of the low symptom distress group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=7.18, P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that patients with early breast cancer who had financial burden after postoperative chemotherapy were more likely to belong to the group with high symptoms [ OR (95% CI) was 3.028 (1.434-6.394), P<0.01]. Postoperative chemotherapy patients with early breast cancer who had satisfactory sleep at night are more likely to belong to the group with low symptoms [ OR(95% CI) was 0.446 (0.217-0.920), P<0.05]. Conclusions:There is population heterogeneity in the symptom characteristics of patients with early breast cancer undergoing postoperative chemotherapy. and economic burden and night sleep are the influencing factors of symptom distress categories of breast cancer patients. It is suggested that medical staff should give individualized and targeted intervention measures centered on patients′ needs according to different types of population characteristics, so as to reduce the symptom burden and improve their quality of life.

Objective:To understand the pain knowledge, belief and behavior level of cancer pain patients, analyze the influencing factors.Methods:A total of 176 patients with a convenient sampling method selection on November 20, 2021 in Ningxia medical institutions that have created cancer pain in the treatment of cancer pain in Ningxia as the research object of cancer pain in medical institutions, and use the "Cancer Pain Pain Incarring Credit Council Cancer Question Question" that is designed and examined by self-examination.Results:The pain knowledge dimension score of cancer pain patients in Ningxia was 5.00 (4.00, 6.00), the belief dimension score was 3.00 (-3.00, 10.00), and the behavior dimension score was 26.00 (24.00, 28.00). The results of multiple linear regression showed that financial burden and burst pain were the factors affecting the pain belief and perception of cancer pain patients ( t=-2.96, -3.00, both P<0.05). The type of medical insurance and the duration of pain were the factors affecting the behavior of pain ( t=-2.49, 3.21, both P<0.05). Conclusions:Cancer pain patients have a low level of pain knowledge, an upper-middle level of negative pain beliefs and perceptions, and a moderate level of pain behavior. It is recommended that nursing personnel use the discharge plan service as the main line to build a full-process management model of cancer pain. During the hospitalization period, pay attention to the outbreak of pain and psychological conditions, and gradually improve the quality of health education through nursing quality evaluation. After discharge, pay attention to the practicality and long-term development of continuity health education, and promote the full management of patients with cancer pain.
