The Life Experience of Patients after the Implantation of Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Devices: A Qualitative Meta-Synthesis.

Background: Cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIED) are more and more widely used in the clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases. However, CIED implantation may also result in a variety of physical, psychological, and social problems among patients. To help patients adapt to life after CIED implantation, it is important to know patients' needs from their perspectives.

Psychosocial adjustment changes and related factors in young and middle-aged patients with first-episode acute myocardial infarction: a longitudinal study.

Aims: This study aimed to explore the change trend and group heterogeneity of psychosocial adjustment level and to determine its influencing factors among young and middle-aged patients with first-episode acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

Methods And Results: The Psychosocial Adjustment Scale of Illness was used to assess the psychosocial adjustment level of the patients at 1, 3, and 6 months after discharge, respectively. Data were analysed using Pearson correlation analysis, generalized estimating equations, and growth mixed models.

Study on the Effect of Micro-Force Perturbations and Temperature Fluctuation on Interferometer for the Taiji Program.

To increase the interferometric measurement resolution in the Taiji program, we present a noise suppression method in this paper. Taking the specific micro-force perturbation and temperature fluctuation in the Taiji-1 interferometer as an example, we set up and experimentally verified the corresponding transfer function to quantify the effect of both noise sources on the interferometric results. Consistent results were obtained between the numerical and experimental results for the transfer function.

Latent profile analysis and related factors of post-traumatic growth in young and middle-aged patients with acute myocardial infarction.

Background: AMI incidence in young and middle-aged patients is increasing year by year, and such patients are prone to negative emotions after illness, which affects health outcomes. However, post-traumatic growth can bring about positive changes in the patient, which is beneficial to their recovery.

Objectives: This study aimed to understand the different types of post-traumatic growth characteristics and their related factors in young and middle-aged patients with acute myocardial infarction to help find precise intervention measures.

Psychosocial adaptation profiles in young and middle-aged patients with acute myocardial infarction: a latent profile analysis.

Aims: We sought to explore the latent classifications of psychosocial adaptation in young and middle-aged patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and analyse the characteristics of different profiles of AMI patients.

Methods And Results: A cross-sectional study was performed in 438 Chinese young and middle-aged patients with AMI. The investigation time was 1 month after discharge.

Experiences and perceptions of acute myocardial infarction patients with a prolonged decision-making phase of treatment seeking: A meta-synthesis.

Aims: To describe the experiences and perceptions of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients with a prolonged decision-making phase of treatment-seeking.

Background: Previous attempts to reduce the treatment-seeking time of AMI have been less than optimal. Due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the situation of prehospital delay is possibly worse.

Self-esteem and family functioning mediates the association of symptom severity and parental affiliate stigma among families with children with ASD.

Purpose: To investigate the level of affiliate stigma among parents of children with autism spectrum disorder and to explore the mediating role of self-esteem and family functioning.

Design And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in a large regional hospital and two childhood rehabilitation centers in Guangdong, China. Data related to demographics, parental self-esteem, family functioning, and affiliate stigma were collected from 180 parents of children diagnosed with ASD.

Mobilizing artificial intelligence to cardiac telerehabilitation.

Cardiac telerehabilitation is a method that uses digital technologies to deliver cardiac rehabilitation from a distance. It has been shown to have benefits to improve patients' disease outcomes and quality of life, and further reduce readmission and adverse cardiac events. The outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic has brought considerable new challenges to cardiac rehabilitation, which foster cardiac telerehabilitation to be broadly applied.
