【摘要】 目的 了解肿瘤复发患者希望水平及其影响因素。 方法 2010年10-12月采用Herth希望量表和自制的一般情况调查表,对302例肿瘤复发患者进行问卷调查,并对相关影响因素进行分析。 结果 肿瘤复发患者希望总体均分为（31.14±5.56）分,7.95%（24例）的患者希望评分为低等水平,74.50%（225例）的患者希望评分为中等水平,17.55%（53例）的患者希望评分为高等水平。肿瘤复发患者希望水平得分的主要影响因素有:婚姻状况、工作状况、医疗费用支付情况、肿瘤类型以及无瘤生存时间。其中,与未婚患者相比,离异患者希望水平较低；与在职患者相比,退休患者希望水平较高；在医疗费用的支付方式上,自费所占的比例越大,患者希望水平越低；与其他肿瘤类型相比,以乳腺癌患者希望水平最低；此外,患者无瘤生存时间越长,其希望水平就越低。 结论 尽管肿瘤复发患者希望水平受多种因素的影响,但多数患者仍对现状和未来充满希望,其希望仍维持在较高水平。【Abstract】 Objective To explore the level of hope and the influential factors of hope in patient with tumor recurrence. Methods A total of 302 patients with tumor recurrence were enrolled. The patients were investigated by Herth Hope Scale and self-designed questionnaire. Results The average level of hope in patients with tumor recurrence was 31.14±5.56; of the total patients，7.95% (24 patients) had low level, 74.50% (225 patients) had media level and 17.55% (53 patients) had high level of hope. Parts of demographic characteristics had significant influences on level of hope and specifically: patient devoiced had lower level of hope than patients married (F=-1.868，Plt;0.05); patients retired had higher level of hope than patients on job (F=2.004，Plt;0.005); patients with greater own proportion of medical expense had lower level of hope than patients with smaller own proportion of medical expense (F=-0.937，Plt;0.05); patients with breast cancer had lower level of hope than patients with other type of cancer (F=-10.824，Plt;0.001); and finally, patients with longer free survival time had lower level of hope than patients with shorter free survival time (F=-1.930，Plt;0.001). Conclusion Parts of demographic characteristics have significant influences on level of hope in patients with tumor recurrence, but most patients still have high level of hope.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the global situation of off-label drug use in cancer patients. MethodsWe searched PubMed, EMbase, CNKI, CBM and VIP databases from their inception to October 2014, to collect studies on off-label drug use in cancer patients. The publication language was limited to English and Chinese. Combieg criteria was used for methodological quality assessment of included studies. A describe analysis was used to analyze the incidence and the proportion of different off-label used drugs. ResultsA total of 14 cross-sectional studies were included. Among them, 1 was from Switzerland, 1 was from Italy, 1 was from Australia, and the other 11 studies were from China. Seven included studies reported the investigated patients' number, containing 3 713 cancer patients and 13 238 prescriptions. The incidences of off-label drug were 2 844, accounting for 21.48%. There were similar rates of off-label prescriptions in Europe, Asia and Australia, but the average off-label prescriptions of European cancer patients were lower than Asia and Australia. The total rate of "unapproved dose", "unapproved indication", and "unapproved solvents" were more than 80% in off-label drug use. ConclusionThe average off-label prescriptions of European cancer patients are lower than Asian and Australian. "Unapproved dose", "unapproved indication" and "unapproved solvents" are the most common off-label prescription in off-label drug use.
Objective To study the catheter-related infection (CRI) in cancer patients treated with central venous catheterization. Methods A prospective study with 196 cancer patients was conducted to analyze the types of catheter-related infection and pathogen, as well as the relationship between CRI and the following factors: insert location, gender, age, remained time, or bone marrow suppression. Results Of the total 196 cases, 16 cases were diagnosed as CRI and the CRI rate was 8.2%. The types of CRI were five cases of pathogen colonization, four cases of insert location infection and seven cases of catheter-related bloodstream infection. Of the total 244 specimens, 20 were positive including 7 pathogenic bacteria in either Gram positive or Gram negative types, the dominating pathogens were staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus epidermidis, acinetobacter baumannii and klebsiella pneumoniae. CRI was related to both insert location and age which were both the independent risk factors. Conclusion The concept of prevention should be set up, and the comprehensive measures should be taken to reduce CRI, such as choosing an appropriate insert location and complying with a strict catheter insert standard.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the incidence of financial toxicity among cancer patients in China. MethodsThe Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, CNKI, and WanFang databases were searched to collect studies on the prevalence of financial toxicity among cancer patients in China from January 2016 to April 2023. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. A meta-analysis was performed by using Stata 16.0 software. ResultsA total of 24 studies involving 8 799 participants were included. Meta-analysis results showed that the prevalence of financial toxicity among cancer patients was 67.4% (95%CI 60.9% to 74.0%) in China. The subgroup analysis showed that sex, educational level, type of medical insurance, cancer site and stage, the cut-off of the instrument, and region were all influential factors of financial toxicity among cancer patients. ConclusionCurrent evidence shows that high prevalence of financial toxicity among cancer patients. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to verify the above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo investigate the causes of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in patients with tumor in Intensive Care Unit (ICU), and take effective intervention measures to reduce the incidence of VAP. MethodsThe targeted monitoring was conducted for the ICU patients who underwent the mechanical ventilation for over 48 hours from January 2013 to December 2014. Then the conventional nursing measures where adopted in 2013 without any field intervention measure implemented. While the prevention and control method was conducted in 2014 and the causes of VAP was valued and anyzed. ResultsAfter adopting intervention measures, the thousand-day rate of VAP decreased from 8.71‰ before the interventions to 2.30‰ after the interventions. The utilization rate of ventilators increased from 63% to 72% after the interventions were taken in 2014. The constituent ratio of the multidrug-resistant bacteria among the isolated pathogens in each year presented a downward trend. ConclusionVAP is common in ICU patients. It is necessary to reach preventive measures and designated position and ventilator management so as to prevent the occurrence of new nosocomial infection.
ObjectiveTo systematically review the efficacy of different nucleosides (acids) in preventing hepatitis B virus reactivation after chemotherapy in cancer patients. MethodsThe Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang Data, and VIP databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of different nucleosides (acids) to prevent HBV reactivation after chemotherapy in cancer patients from inception to June 7th, 2021. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies. Network meta-analysis was then performed by using Stata 16.0 software. ResultsA total of 43 RCTs involving 3 269 patients were included. There were 7 interventions, namely entecavir (ETV), lamivudine (LAM), adefovir dipivoxil (ADV), telbivudine (LdT), tenofovir dipivoxil (TDF), lamivudine combined with entecavir (LAM+ETV), and lamivudine combined with adefovir dipivoxil (LAM+ADV). The results of network meta-analysis showed that the efficacy of reducing the reactivation rate of ETV, LAM, ADV, LdT, TDF, LAM+ETV, LAM+ADV were superior than the control group. The ETV, LAM and ADV were not as effective as LAM+ETV. The leading drug combinations were LAM+ETV (94.8%), LdT (81.5%) and LA+ADV (58.0%). ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that LAM+ETV, LdT, and LA+ADV are more effective in preventing hepatitis B virus reactivation after chemotherapy in cancer patients. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high-quality studies are required to verify the above conclusions.
