Background: Cancer patients experience substantial psychological distress which causes the reduction of the quality of life. However, the risk of psychological distress has not been well predicted especially in young- and middle-aged gynaecological cancer patients. This study aimed to develop a prediction model for psychological distress in young- and middle-aged gynaecological cancer patients using the artificial neural network (ANN).

The objective of this study was to investigate post-traumatic growth heterogeneity trajectory in perioperative gastric cancer survivors, and to identify characteristics that predict membership for each trajectory.
Methods: Gastric cancer survivors (n = 403) were recruited before surgery, their baseline assessment (including post-traumatic growth and related characteristics) was completed, and post-traumatic growth levels were followed up on the day they left the intensive care unit, at discharge, and 1 month after discharge.
Objective: Breast reconstruction (BR) is a positive contribution to aesthetic effect among breast cancer patients. Identification of influenced factors for participating satisfaction may provide insights on the decision-making theory to promote patient's autonomy in surgical choice. The purpose of this study was to examine the level of participating satisfaction with surgical treatment decision-making and its predictors among breast cancer patients with immediate BR.

In this study, 84 women with SLE who were admitted to a tertiary hospital in Tianjin from July 2021 to April 2022 were enrolled in this study and divided into observation (n = 42) and control groups (n = 42). The control group received routine health education and treatment for chronic diseases.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFThe incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer in Mainland China has increased rapidly in recent years, yet the number of studies focusing on health-related quality of life (HR-QOL) is still limited. Additionally, some of the quality-of-life (QOL) issues specific to thyroid cancer have not been adequately described. The aims of this study were to assess the generic and disease-specific HR-QOL of differentiated thyroid cancer survivors and to identify the associated factors.

Background: Cancer-related cognitive impairment seriously affects the quality of life of advanced cancer patients. However, neural network models of cognitive impairment in patients with advanced cancer have not yet been identified.
Background: Cognitive impairment is prevalent among individuals, especially women, with methamphetamine dependence. Although aerobic exercise has been shown to affect cognitive function in humans and animals, few related studies have focused on subjects with methamphetamine dependence.
Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the detoxification-related effects of aerobic exercise on cognitive function in women with methamphetamine dependence.
Background: Methamphetamine is a commonly used illicit drug that threatens many adolescents and youth in Asian Pacific countries, contributing to the heavy burden of disease and drug-related death. Little is known about the prevalence of associated psychological problems in methamphetamine-dependent adolescents and youth.
Purpose: The study sought to estimate the prevalence of psychological problems in adolescents and youth in China with methamphetamine dependence and to identify factors related to co-occurring psychological problems.
Aims And Objectives: To determine whether cognitive behavioural interventions would improve the quality of life in Chinese heroin addicts.
Background: Drug dependence is one of the most serious health problems in the world, representing a real menace to mental and somatic health. However, effects of cognitive behavioural interventions on quality of life in Chinese heroin addicts are unclear.
Background: Yoga, as a mind-body therapy, is effective in improving quality of life for patients with chronic diseases, yet little is known about its effectiveness in female heroin addicts.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of yoga on mood status and quality of life among women undergoing detoxification for heroin dependence in China.
Method: This study was a randomized controlled trial.
