Objective:To explore the potential profile characteristics of family health in patients with chronic diseases, analyze the influencing factors of different family health categories, and further investigate the relationship between family health categories and the quality of life in patients with chronic diseases, providing a scientific basis for targeted intervention strategies.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. The data for the study were obtained from the Chinese Residents' Psychology and Behavior Survey Research Database. A multistage sampling method was employed to select 1 808 patients with chronic diseases as survey respondents from July to September 2021. Data were collected using the General Information Questionnaire, the Family Health Scale, and the European 5-Dimensional 5-Level Health Scale(EQ-5D-5L). Potential profiles of family health in patients with chronic diseases were identified using latent profile analysis. Univariate analysis and multiple Logistic regression were used to examine influencing factors, and generalized linear regression was performed to analyze the impact of different family health categories on quality of life.Results:A total of 1 808 chronic disease patients were enrolled, comprising 986 males and 822 females, with a age of (55.23 ± 7.02) years. The scores of family health, EQ-5D-5L, EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale were 38(34, 43), 0.94(0.84, 1.00), and 78(63, 87) points. The family health of patients with chronic diseases were categorized into three potential profiles: the low family health group (418 cases accounting for 23.1%), the medium family health group (747 cases accounting for 41.3%), and the high family health group (643 cases accounting for 35.6%). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that family type, marital status, nature of household, education level, number of siblings and type of health insurance were significant factors influencing family health categories ( OR values were 0.464-2.503, all P<0.05). The family health was an important factor influencing quality of life ( χ2 values were 4.05-100.68, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There is significant heterogeneity in the family health of patients with chronic diseases, which can be divided into three distinct categories. Patients with higher family health levels have better quality of life. Medical professionals should develop precise intervention programs tailored to the characteristics of each category to improve family health levels and enhance the quality of life of patients with chronic diseases.

Objective:To understand nurses' experiences providing discharge preparation services for elderly patients with multiple chronic diseases and offer references for developing intervention strategies for discharge preparation services for these patients.Methods:A purposive sampling method was used to select 24 nurses from the cardiovascular departments, geriatrics wards, and other internal medicine departments of three Grade A tertiary hospitals, four Grade B hospitals, and one community health service center in Guilin City between March and April 2024. An interview outline was developed based on the social-ecological system theory, and semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect data. A directed content analysis method was used to analyze the data.Results:A total of three themes were identified: micro-level (nurses have a positive attitude but face shortcomings in age-appropriate discharge preparation services), meso-level (team collaboration mechanisms are weak), and macro-level (there is a desire to link social resources) .Conclusions:Nurses' discharge preparation services for elderly patients with multiple chronic diseases are inadequate. It is recommended to enhance nurses' discharge preparation skills through core competency-based training, improve the development of innovative healthcare platforms, and promote establishing of a multi-dimensional social care support system to improve the quality of discharge preparation services for elderly patients with multiple chronic diseases.

Objective To investigate the value of extracellular volume fraction(ECV)based on CT for predicting macrotrabecular-massive hepatocellular carcinoma(MTM-HCC).Methods Data of 23 MTM-HCC(MTM-HCC group)and 56 non-MTM-HCC(nMTM-HCC group)patients were retrospectively analyzed,and CT manifestations were compared between groups.CT values of abdominal aorta(P-CTabdominal aorta,E-CTabdominal aorta),tumors(P-CTtumor,E-CTtumor)and non-tumor liver parenchyma(P-CTliver,E-CTliver)in plain phase(P)and enhancement equilibrium phase(E)CT were measured,then ECV of tumors and liver parenchyma were calculated,and ECV-related parameters were compared between groups.Receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn,and area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the predictive efficacy of ECV-related parameters for predicting MTM-HCC.Results No significant difference of CT manifestations was found between groups(all P>0.05).E-CTtumor,Δltumor(absolute enhancement CT value of the tumor area)and ECVtumor in MTM-HCC group were all lower than those in nMTM-HCC group(all P<0.01).The AUC of E-CTtumor,Δtumor and ECVtumor for predicting MTM-HCC was 0.74,0.77 and 0.87,respectively,and the AUC of ECVtumor was higher than that of E-CTtumor and Δtumor(Z=2.271,2.557,P=0.023,0.011).Conclusion ECV based on CT could be used to effectively predict MTM-HCC.

Objective:To explore the current status of barriers to participation in phaseⅡcoronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients and the factors influencing them, and to provide new ideas for reducing barriers to participation in rehabilitation and improving the participation rate in cardiac rehabilitation.Methods:For this study, a cross-sectional survey research method was utilized. The study included 334 patients who underwent CABG and were admitted to the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University between June 2022 and May 2023. These patients were selected using the convenience sampling method. A General Information Questionnaire, the Cardiac Rehabilitation Barriers Scale (CRBS-C/M), and a Questionnaire on the Knowledge of Information Related to Cardiac Rehabilitation were used to conduct the survey. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the independent influencing factors on barriers to participation in phase Ⅱ cardiac rehabilitation in post-CABG patients.Results:Out of 334 patients, 248 were males and 86 were females with age (54.74 ± 7.61) years old. The total average score of CRBS-C/M in patients after CABG surgery was 3.20 ± 0.43, with the highest external logistic factors score of 3.42 ± 0.58. The knowledge status score of information related to cardiac rehabilitation was 42.11 ± 7.94. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the following factors independently influenced post-CABG patients′ barriers to participating in phaseⅡcardiac rehabilitation: marital status, whether or not they had completed phase I cardiac rehabilitation,number of other comorbidities, knowledge of cardiac rehabilitation information. All of these differences were statistically significant ( t values were -4.87-3.35, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The barriers to participation in phase Ⅱ cardiac rehabilitation in post-CABG patients are at an intermediate to high level, and healthcare professionals should emphasize the assessment of barrier factors in these patients, and target the development and implementation of phase Ⅱ cardiac rehabilitation in terms of the influencing factors.
