Aim: To translate the RLOC Scale into Chinese and test its psychometric properties in the Chinese patients with myocardial infarction (MI).
Design: A cross-sectional design was used.
Methods: A convenience sample of 233 patients with MI who have undergone percutaneous coronary intervention and were ready for discharge were recruited in a level A tertiary hospital of Shandong Province from January 2019 to April 2019. Data were analysed using item analysis, internal consistency reliability and exploratory factor analysis.
Results: Two factors-external RLOC and internal RLOC-were extracted, accounting for 70.5% of the variance. Cronbach's alpha for the Chinese version of RLOC Scale was 0.80 and for the two factors was 0.92 and 0.76, respectively. The Chinese version of RLOC Scale showed satisfactory reliability and validity, which can be used to measure the ability of recovery locus of control in Chinese patients with MI.

Mental health in people with chronic diseases undergoes many changes due to conflict with the pain caused by the disease, which can have a reciprocal effect on the course and quality of the patient's treatment. The goal of the present study is to compare the correlation between locus of control, relationship quality, pain intensity and resilience with dialysis adequacy and laboratory indicators in peritoneal dialysis and hemodialysis patients. This causal-comparative study was conducted on 30 hemodialysis (HD) and 30 peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients through the convenience sampling method.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify psychological factors associated with pain intensity and disability following distal radius fracture.
Methods: We prospectively followed 216 adult patients with distal radius fracture for 9 months. Demographics, injury and treatment details, and psychological measures (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Score [HADS], Pain Catastrophizing Scale, Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist-Civilian, Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, Illness Perception Questionnaire Brief [IPQB], General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Recovery Locus of Control [RLOC]) were collected at enrollment.

Aim: To study the specifics of diagnosis and treatment of diabetic polyneuropathy in elderly patients.
Material And Methods: Forty-two patients (22 men and 20 women, aged from 65 to 75 years) with diabetes mellitus type 2 and diabetic polyneuropathy were studied using the following psychometric scales: the Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI), Neurological symptoms scale (NSS), Neuropathy Disability Score (NDS), the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Kaplan-Feinstein index (KFI), the Covi Anxiety Scale (COVI), the Recovery Locus of Control Scale (RLOC).
