Our study aimed gain insight into nurses' for patients.We performed a descriptive qualitative using phenomenology approach. Purposive sampling was...

Ansamitocin P-3 (AP-3) is a promising anticancer agent. However, its low solubility has limited biomedical applications. The preparation of liposomal formulations for the delivery drugs using microfluidic platform attracted increasing attention in pharmaceutical industry. In addition, photodynamic therapy (PDT) non-invasive and efficient strategy treatment cancers, making liposomes one most drug systems (DDSs). this study, recently developed device (swirl mixer) was used manufacturing...

Abstract Background There is limited information about the population characteristics and adverse health outcomes of older cancer patients in China. This study aimed to describe prevalence frailty examine association between health-related quality life (HRQoL) among patients. Methods was a cross-sectional involving diagnosed with two tertiary hospitals Shandong Province, Frailty assessed using Geriatric 8 (G-8). HRQoL measured five-level EuroQol-5-dimension (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire. The...

Chinese clinical nurses are increasingly confronting patient death, as the proportion of hospital deaths is growing. Witnessing suffering and death stressful, failure to cope with this challenge may result in decreased well-being impediment provision "good death" care for patients their families. To our knowledge, few studies have specifically explored nurses' experiences coping mainland China. OBJECTIVE: We aimed explore China order support frontline effectively guide government improving...

Financial hardship among older cancer survivors has not been well-studied, despite its debilitating effects on their health and well-being. The purpose of this study was to describe the lived experiences Chinese who have experienced financial following a diagnosis.A qualitative conducted. Data collected using in-depth interviews with 21 (aged ≥ 60) 20 family caregivers in Shandong Province, China between August 2020 January 2021. were analyzed Colaizzi's phenomenological method.Four main...

Evidence is required to quantify the population-level effects of endoscopic screening for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The objective this study was evaluate long-term effectiveness 1-time ESCC in a Chinese rural population.This community-based cohort based on an existing cancer program Feicheng City, China. group consisted all permanent residents aged 40 69 years 17 villages who were screened during 2006 through 2009, and control another 43 not yet covered by program. Residents...

This study aimed to analyze the trends of Parkinson's disease (PD) mortality rates among Chinese residents from 2004 2021, provide evidence for formulation PD prevention and control strategies improve quality life residents.

Introduction Clinical observations have found that prolonged use of analgesics increases the incidence infection. However, direct causal relationship between prescription analgesic (PAU) and risk infection (ROI) remains unclear. Methods This study used Mendelian randomization (MR) design to estimate effect PAU on ROI, as well their mediating factors. Genetic data immune cells were obtained from published GWAS. Additionally, ROI extracted FinnGen database. Two-sample MR analysis multivariate...

Abstract Background The present study aimed to first describe the work‐related outcomes of cancer survivors and then identify those characteristics that influenced decision stop working in rural China. Methods We assessed 752 (residents areas, at time diagnosis, >1 year since completing treatment) from cross‐sectional “China Survey Experiences with Cancer”. Participants reported changes employment status, income, ability perform physical jobs due cancer, as well their informal caregivers....

Evidence of the association between sleep duration, depressive symptoms, and mortality in cancer survivors is limited. 2,111 participants from National Health Nutrition Examination Surveys were involved linked to a database up 31 December 2019. Sleep duration was self-reported at baseline. Depressive symptom assessed using Patient Questionnaire (PHQ-9) total score ≥ 10 considered clinically relevant symptoms. Cox proportional hazards regression model main statistical models. A 2% increase...

Financial hardship has been described as a patient's economic experiencefollowing cancer-related treatment. Standardized patient-reported outcome measures(PROM) to assess this distress not well-studied, especially among older cancer survivors.The aim of study was develop and validate PROM for assessing the financial survivors in China.Items were generated using qualitative interviews literature review. Items screened based on Delphi expert consultation patients' opinions. Item response...

Background Little is known about the association between frailty level and medical financial hardship among older adults with cancer. This study aims to describe prevalence of identify its cancer survivors in United States. Methods The National Health Interview Survey (NHIS; 2019–2020) was used (n = 3,919). Both five-item (Fatigue, Resistance, Ambulation, Illnesses, Low weight-for-height) FRAIL three-domain (Material, Psychological, Behavioral) questions were constructed based on NHIS...

In China, older cancer survivors may show heterogeneity in financial toxicity (FT). We aimed to identify FT profiles among Chinese and examine the association between individual characteristics. used a latent profile analysis categorize participants multinomial logistic regression associations. identified three distinct profiles: high, moderate, low. Participants aged 65-69 years, with monthly household income ≥ 5,000 CNY high school education or above were more likely be classified into...

Abstract In this paper, torsional vibration band gap properties of a fluid filled pipe were studied by using the transfer matrix method (TMM). By comparing results obtained from fem software, established dynamic model and proposed verified. The effects wall's material parameters support on analyzed. Furthermore, relationship between displacement gaps was investigated. These attenuation regions responses show good agreement with frequency Bragg gaps. Explained locally resonant (LR) phononic...

An efficient perovskite junction is critical for the functioning of solar cells (PSCs). However, carbon‐based (C‐PSCs) have been plagued by paucity ways to construct an between and carbon, staggering around efficiency much lower than other state‐of‐the‐art PSCs. Herein, a perovskite/carbon bulk heterojunction (BHJ) C‐PSCs innovated systematically studied. First, two‐step orthogonal solvent method developed deposit series high‐quality films directly on preformed film, allowing manipulate...
