目的:探讨输卵管性不孕妇女生存质量及其影响因素,并为输卵管性不孕症治疗决策的选择提供相应的依据。方法:采用生存质量测评量表SF-36对80名输卵管性不孕妇女及80名已生育或妊娠的健康妇女进行了同期的横断面调查与比较。结果:输卵管性不孕妇女的生存质量较正常健康妇女人群低,除了生理功能及躯体疼痛外,输卵管性不孕妇女有关社会功能、生理问题对功能的限制、心理问题对功能的限制、心理健康、活力、健康的总体评价、健康变化程度等七个方面的主观满意度均较对照组低,差异有显著意义(Plt;0.05)。患者的年龄、文化程度及居住环境对其生存质量有影响。结论:在治疗不孕症时,不应仅针对其病因治疗,而且要重视心理和社会因素的作用,加强心理治疗,重视健康教育,针对性地改善患者在精神、社会、心理等方面的主观体验,以促进不孕症妇女生存质量的提高。
Objective We searched the Cochrane Library(Issue 3, 2005 )to identity evidence related to palliative treatment. We found that Opioids are effective for the palliation of breathlessness in terminal illness. Oral Morphine and hydromorphone is effective for cancer pain. Radiotherapy and Bisphosphonates can relief pain secondary to bone metastases. Corticosteroids can resolve malignant bowel obstruction in advanced gynaecological and gastrointestinal cancer.
Objective To determine the safety and efficacy of surgical biliary bypass on the elderly patients with unresectable pancreatic head cancer. Methods The clinical data of 55 cases with unresectable pancreatic head cancer treated with palliation methods from July 2002 to June 2009 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into three groups according to different age and therapeutic program: Nineteen patients, 65 years of age or older, were managed with surgical biliary bypass (group A), 19 patients under 65 years of age were treated by surgical biliary bypass (group B) and 17 patients with the age of 65 years or older received percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage (group C). Then the therapeutic results were compared.Results With respect to the postoperative level of serum bilirubin, the incidence of early complications, postoperative hospitalization and mean survival time, no statistically significant difference was found between group A and B (Pgt;0.05). There was one case of recurrent jaundice and one case of gastric output obstruction in group B, while no one suffered postoperative complication in group A, and the difference was statistically significant (Plt;0.01). Compared with group A, the postoperative level of serum bilirubin, the number of patient readmitted, the rate of recurrent jaundice and gastric output obstruction were higher in group C (Plt;0.05 or Plt;0.01). The mean postoperative hospitalization and overall survival time were significantly shorter in group C than group A (Plt;0.05 or Plt;0.01, respectively). Conclusion Surgical palliation does not increase the morbidity rate, but it does improve the quality of life in elderly patients with unresectable pancreatic head cancer.
Objective To study the major factors which affect quality of life of Chinese patients with diabetic retinopathy,and provide basis raising the patients condition of health and quality of life. Methods Quality of life of 179 patients with different stages of diabetic retinopathy and 30 healthy persons was measuerd by the medical outcomes study 36-item short form health survey(SF-36)and the brief scale of quality of life of WHO(WHOQOL-BREF),then the affectting factors were analysed by step regression. Results The major factors which affect quality of life of patients with diabetic retinopathy included:bilateral visual acuity(BVA),different category of retinopathy,course of disease,economic condition,personality,medical care and age. Conclusion The study suggests that bringing about the transformation from the biologic medical model to bio-psycho-social medical model is important to improve quality of life of the patients with diabetic retionpathy.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the quality of life of residents in stricken area five years after Wenchuan earthquake, so as to explore the main influential factors such as gender, age, ethnic group, marriage status and the extent affected by the earthquake. MethodsUsing WHOQOL-BREF, 500 residents from Hanyuan county in Sichuan province were assessed in order to analyze their life quality and related factors. ResultsThe score on the overall WHOQOL-BREF and the level of each factor were significantly lower than the score on the normal people (P < 0.001). Male score in the factor of social relations significantly higher than female (t=3.963, P < 0.001). The overall score and the score of social factor were significantly lower in the minor than in the adults (t=-2.667, P < 0.01; t=-19.287, P < 0.001). And the quality score of social relationship was significantly lower in the single than in the married and cohabiting couples (P < 0.001; P < 0.01). ConclusionThe quality of life of residents in stricken area five years after Wenchuan earthquake was significantly lower than the national norm. There are significant differences in terms of gender, age, marriage status and earthquake damage on social relations. Steady intimate relationships with others help improve the quality of life of residents in stricken area. Besides, compared those with average damage or no damage, the residents with serious damage are relatively worse in the overall quality of life as well as environmental conditions.
