EFFECT OF ACUPUNCTURE ON NEUROLOGICAL DEFECTS AND DAILY LIFE ABILITY IN PATIENTS WITH ACUTE CEREBRAL HEMORRHAGE

Objective: To observe the effect of acupuncture of Shuigou (GV 26), Neiguan (PC 6), Zusanli (ST 36), etc. on neurological defects and daily life ability in patients with acute cerebral hemorrhage. Methods: Fifty eight cases of acute cerebral hemorrhage patients were randomized into control group (n=28) and treatment group (n=30). Patients of two groups were both treated with intravenous infusion of Mannitol and other expectant medicines. In addition, patients of treatment group were also treated with acupuncture therapy, once daily and continuously for one month. Before and after treatment, the scores of neurological defects and daily life ability (Barthel Index) were given for assessing the therapeutic effect. Results: Following treatment, both scores of neurological defects of two groups decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the score of treatment group was strikingly lower than that of control group (P<0.05). After treatment, values of Barthel Index (BI) of two groups increased considerably in comparison with pre treatment (P<0.01), and the value of BI of treatment group was bigger than that of control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture can improve acute cerebral hemorrhage patients’ nervous function and daily life ability.

Health-related quality of life and the ability to perform activities of daily living: a cross-sectional study on 1079 war veterans with ankle-foot disorders

Background:The ankle-foot injuries are among the war-related injuries that cause many serious secondary problems for a lifetime.This nationwide study aimed to assess health-related quality of life and the ability to perform activities of daily living in veterans with ankle-foot injuries due to the Iran-Iraq war.Methods:A total of 1079 veterans with ankle-foot injuries were enrolled in a cross-sectional study from 2014 to 2016.Demographic characteristics,including age,gender,marital status,disability percent,educational level,employment and additional injuries,were collected.The ability to perform daily activities was assessed using the Barthel activities of daily living(ADL)and Lawton instrumental activities of daily living(IADL)Indexes.Physical and mental health-related quality of life(HRQOL)data were measured via the SF-36 subscales.The data were compared with those of bilateral lower limb amputees(BLLAs)and of the general Iranian population.Statistical analyses,including Pearson’s correlation coefficient,one-sample t-test and analysis of variance(ANOVA),were performed using SPSS16.0.A multiple linear regression model was used to determine the contribution of independent variables to the Physical Component Summary(PCS)and Mental Component Summary(MCS).Results:The highest and lowest scores were observed for mental health(48.93±20.69)and bodily pain(28.16±21.74),respectively.The mean scores of veterans with ankle-foot injuries on the SF-36 were significantly lower on all eight measures than those of the general Iranian male population and of the bilateral lower limb amputees(P<0.001).The mean scores of ADLs and IADLs were 83.9±16.3 and 5.3±2.0,respectively.The higher dependency in ADLs(P<0.001)and IADLs(P<0.001),the higher disability rate(P<0.001)and additional injury(P<0.001)were significant determinants of the PCS.ADL(P<0.001)and IADL(P<0.001)limitations,additional injury(P<0.001),history of hospitalization in the year preceding the study(P=0.007)and employment(P=0.001)were reported as determinants of the MCS.Conclusion:The results strongly suggest that veterans with ankle-foot injuries suffer from critically poor healthrelated quality of life.The main predicting factors of HRQOL were the disability to perform ADLs/IADLs,suffering two or more injuries,a history of hospitalization in the year preceding the study and unemployment.

Relationship between activities of daily living and depression among older adults and the quality of life of family caregivers

Objective： The purposes of this study were to explore the associations of activities of daily living （ADL） and depression among older adults with family caregivers1 quality of life and provide evidence for improving family caregivers＇ quality of life.Methods： Older adults （n=395） and their family caregivers （n=395） were selected as participants. The ADL scale and Geriatric Depression Scale were used to assess ADL and depression among older adults, and the 36-Item Short Form Health Questionnaire （SF-36） was used to assess family caregivers1 quality of life. Descriptive statistics and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data.Resslts： The older adults’ ADL and depression scores were 21 ±7 and 11 ±6, respectively. Approximately 69.9% of older adults had declining or severely impaired ADL, and 47.1% had mild or moderate-to-severe depression. Family caregivers＂ mean quality of life score was 529±100. There was a negative correlation of older adults＇ ADL and depression with caregivers＇ quality of life. The correlation coefficient between ADL and the SF-36 mental component summary score was stronger than it was with the SF-36 physical component summary score.Conclusions： The ADL and depression of older adults influenced family caregivers＇ quality of life. Psychological health deserves closer attention, especially that of caregivers of disabled older adults.

Effect of Diplopia on Daily Life and Evaluation of Nursing Measures Following Strabismus Surgery

Purpose: To investigate the effect of diplopia on the daily life of patients after strabismus surgery and to explore appropriate nursing care measures.Methods:.A total of 200 patients who developed postoperative diplopia underwent telephone follow-up to evaluate the influence of diplopia on their daily lives..SPSS 19.0 statistical software was utilized for data analysis.Results: Postoperative diplopia affected patients' physical activity(49%), attention(39.2%), work and study(24.5%),emotions.(19.5%),.and housework performance.(17%),whereas it did not influence the quality of sleep. Potential risk factors associated with diplopia, such as duration of diplopia,gender, and age, were analyzed by uni- and multivariate regression analysis. Quality of life was significantly and negatively correlated with the duration of diplopia, but not correlated with gender or age.Conclusion:.Postoperative diplopia affects the quality of life in partial patients..The nursing staff should provide nursing care, health education, and explicit instructions to the patients after discharge. In addition, nursing care should be sustained by subsequent telephone follow-up.

Investigating short- and long-term transfer effects of a Taiji beginner course in participants' daily life

in recent years research investigating various health benefits of Taiji practice has markedly increased. Despite this growing scientific interest, essential questions such as to what extent a Taiji course may exert noticeable effects in participants＇ everyday life, what these effects are, and how and where potential transfer effects occur, have hardly been considered. The aim of our study was to explore transfer effects from a Taiji course into participants＇ daily lives. METHODS： We conducted a longitudinal observational study in 45 healthy participants at the end of their three-month Taiji beginner course （tpl） and at two months （tp2） as well as one year after course completion （tp3）. Participants were asked to report their Taiji practice behavior at all time points, as well as to rate and describe perceived transfer effects of Taiji course contents on their daily life at tpl and tp3. RESULTS： Transfer effects were reported by 91.1% of all respondents after course completion （tpl） and persisted in 73.3% at the one-year follow-up assessment （tp3）, counting ＂increase of self-efficacy＂, ＂improvement of stress management＂, and ＂increase of body awareness＂ as the most frequently mentioned effects. Transfer effects predominantly occurred in participants＇ work and social environments, as well as during everyday activities in public areas. While self- reliant Taiji practice frequency significantly decreased from 82.2% at tpl to 55.6% at tp3 （P 〈 0.001）, the magnitude of self-reported transfer effects did not （P = 0.35）. As explorative analyses revealed, regular Taiji course attendance was highly correlated with stronger transfer effects at tpl （r = 0.51; P 〈 0.001） and tp3 （r = 0.35; P = 0.020）. Participants reporting high self-reliant Taiji practice frequency at tp2 were likely to maintain a regular practice routine at tp3 （r = 0.42; P 〈 0.004）, whereas self-reliant practice frequency and transfer effects at tpl were positively correlated with self-reliant practice frequency at tp3 on a trend level （r 〈 0.27; P 〉 0.08）. CONCLUSION： Our data underline the importance of regular course participation for pronounced and long lasting transfer effects into participants＇ everyday life. We discuss that several context and process-related aspects of a Taiji intervention are potentially relevant factors for enhancement of transfer effect.

Whole-process case management effects on mental state and selfcare ability in patients with liver cancer

BACKGROUND Regarding the incidence of malignant tumors in China,the incidence of liver cancer ranks fourth,second only to lung,gastric,and esophageal cancers.The case fatality rate ranks third after lung and cervical cancer.In a previous study,the whole-process management model was applied to patients with breast cancer,which effectively reduced their negative emotions and improved treatment adherence and nursing satisfaction.METHODS In this single-center,randomized,controlled study,60 randomly selected patients with liver cancer who had been admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to January 2022 were randomly divided into an observation group(n=30),who received whole-process case management on the basis of routine nursing mea-sures,and a control group(n=30),who were given routine nursing measures.We compared differences between the two groups in terms of anxiety,depression,the level of hope,self-care ability,symptom distress,sleep quality,and quality of life.RESULTS Post-intervention,Hamilton anxiety scale,Hamilton depression scale,memory symptom assessment scale,and Pittsburgh sleep quality index scores in both groups were lower than those pre-intervention,and the observation group had lower scores than the control group(P<0.05).Herth hope index,self-care ability assessment scale-revision in Chinese,and quality of life measurement scale for patients with liver cancer scores in both groups were higher than those pre-intervention,with higher scores in the observation group compared with the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Whole-process case management can effectively reduce anxiety and depression in patients with liver cancer,alleviate symptoms and problems,and improve the level of hope,self-care ability,sleep quality,and quality of life,as well as provide feasible nursing alternatives for patients with liver cancer.

Study on Life History and Daily Rhythm of Gilpinia yongrenica

The life history and adult daily rhythm of Gilpinia yongrenica Xiao et Huang in Guizhou Province were observed and recorded.The results showed that there were three generations of G.yongrenica in Guizhou area;the first generation occurred from late March to middle July;the second generation occurred from early June to middle October;and the third generation occurred from middle September to late April.The ratio of male to female was 5.75∶1,and the emergence rate was 88.25%.The emergence of adults changed significantly with time,and the peak emergence period was at 12:00-13:00.The resting behavior accounted for the largest proportion in daily time distribution of adult behavior;followed by moving behavior and spawning behavior;and the mating behavior accounted for the smallest proportion.The moving behavior mainly occurred during the daytime,which reached the peak at 8:00-11:00.The resting behavior mainly occurred at 19:00-7:00,with the maximum reaching 100%.The mating behavior was concentrated at 12:00-13:00,which reached the peak at 13:00(19.5%).The spawning behavior mainly occurred at 14:00-15:00,and reached the peak at 14:00(42.1%).

The Relationship among Chronic Disease, Feeling-for-Their-Age, Sleep Quality, Health-Related Quality of Life and Activities of Daily Living of Community-Dwelling Persons over 55 Years of Age

Japan’s aging population rate is increasing and healthy life expectancy has decreases by 10 years shorter than average life expectancy. The aim of this study is to determine the relationship among chronic disease, sleep quality, health-related quality of life (HRQOL), and activities of daily living in people over 55 years old who live in the community. Subjects were 161 persons aged 57 to 90 years who were treated with chronic disease in the outpatient department of the A hospital. Exclusion criteria included patients with dementia, cancer and severe heart disease. The survey evaluation questionnaires included the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), HRQOL by Short-Form 8 Health Survey (SF-8), and activities of daily living. Variables associated with quality of sleep, HRQOL in univariate analysis with p < 0.05 were entered into multivariate analysis using logistic regression with a stepwise forward selection procedure to determine independent variables and their association with major causes. The logistic regression analysis was done using SPSS software and the post-hoc power of the study was estimated using G*power. The level of significance was set at p < 0.05. The risk factor of poor sleep quality was because of history of cancer [odds ratio (OR): 3.53, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.06 - 11.77], and insomnia (OR: 3.25, 95% CI: 1.55 - 6.79). The risk factors of poor physical HRQOL were motor disease (OR: 2.62, 95% CI: 1.36 - 5.07), respiratory disease (OR: 3.24, 95% CI: 1.27 - 8.26) and having pain (OR: 11.71, 95% CI: 5.35 - 25.66). In addition, anemia was found to be a risk factor of poor mental HRQOL (OR: 4.87, 95% CI: 1.11 - 21.33). The feeling-for-their-body-age (OR: 0.30, 95% CI: 0.15-0.59) was as “younger than actual age” and advanced the risk factor of poor sleep quality. In addition, feeling-for-their-age (OR: 0.44, 95% CI: 0.21 - 0.92) resulted in reduced risk factor of poor physical HRQOL. The risk factor of poor sleep quality was due to a patient with history of cancer. The factor for good sleep quality and the good factor for physical HRQOL were indications of feeling younger than the actual age.

Neurophysiological Manifestations of Auditory Hypersensitivity Correlate with Daily Life Experiences

Background: This study aimed to compare the neurophysiological responses to sound in adults with hypersensitivity compared to adults without hypersensitivity, and correlate the daily-life experiences to the neurophysiological manifestations. Material and Methods: The Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile (AASP) was administered to 27 adults, separated by their cut-off scores. Differences in neurophysiological responses were measured by N1-P2 Event-Related Potentials (ERP) in response to auditory changes in frequency and intensity. Reactions to daily sounds were measured by the hyperacusis questionnaire. Correlations between AASP, hyperacusis questionnaire, and ERP were measured. Results: The basic ability to detect a change in stimuli manifested in N1 waveform was not significantly different. However, participants with hypersensitivity presented a stronger P2 response and a higher hyperacusis score. Daily expressions of auditory hypersensitivity correlated (p = 0.05 - p = 0.01) with larger ERP responses. Conclusions: Auditory hypersensitivity as reflected in daily scenarios is evident in neurophysiological manifestations measured by ERPs. Understanding the relationship between the neural mechanisms of auditory hyper-ensitivity and its daily expressions, may optimize participation and wellbeing for people with hypersensitivity.

Disability and Quality of Life among Elderly Persons with Self-Reported Hearing Impairment: Report from the Ibadan Study of Aging

Background: Despite a high prevalence of hearing impairment (HI) among the elderly, the effect on their quality of life (QOL) has not been well studied in this environment. Aim: To determine the prevalence of disability and profile of QOL among elderly persons (aged ≥65 years) with HI. Design of Study: Cross-sectional. Setting: Eight contiguousYoruba-speaking states in Nigeria. Methods: Face-to-face interviews of respondents selected using a multi-stage, stratified area probability sampling of households;HI was based on self report and observer confirmation and the QOL was measured with the World Health Organization brief version (WHOQOL-Bref). Results: The prevalence of disability in Activities of Daily Living (ADL) was 35.4% while it was 10.1% in Instrumental ADL. Prevalence increased significantly with increasing age (P = 0.05). Disability in ADL (P = 0.01), poor family interaction (P = 0.01), poor community involvement (P = 0.01) cognitive impairment (P = 0.05) and poor report of overall health (P = 0.05) were significantly more common among the elderly with HI than those without. No significant differences were found in regard to current depression or the likelihood of experiencing verbal, physical or emotional abuses. Logistic regression analyses adjusting for age, sex, chronic medical conditions and disability confirmed the salient effect of HI on the decrement in the physical domains (P = 0.05). Conclusion: HI is associated with high prevalence of disability and has adverse effect on the quality of life. This observation strengthens the need for hearing rehabilitation in the policy formulation on the care of the elderly in resource-poor settings.

Patient Life Experience and Activity of Daily Living before and after Total Knee Arthroplasty

Background: As the population ageing, more patients suffer from joint disease. Joint replacement surgery performed in Taiwan is about 10,000 to 20,000 cases yearly. Aims: The purpose of this study is to realize Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) patients’ views about life experiences and difficulty in daily life before and after the surgery. Methods: In this study, in-depth interview with interview guideline was used to analyze patients’ experience by using a qualitative research method, and questionnaires were used to collect quantity data. Results: 1) A total of 20 participants were recruited. Average age was 75.15 (SD = 6.468). Eighteen of the participants were female and the other two were male. The majority of participants indicated that their home facilities were convenient or very convenient. 2) Motivations of the participants to undergo TKA were joint pain, limited joint range of motion, and weakness in legs. Participants’ expectations after surgery were no more pain and ease in walking, and able to manage daily life. 3) Depending on the time after surgery, joint pain and walking ability had improved to some extent. The joint range of motion increased, but kneeling remained difficult, and the participants’ mood and exercise capacity were improved. Conclusions: The finding can be as a reference for clinical practitioner to provide preoperative education for total knee arthroplasty patients.

Comparison of Fitness Tracking Using Three Different Smartwatches during Free Activities in Daily Life

Background: Young women of reproductive age experience various physiological changes, which they measure and track using various devices, including fitness trackers and smartwatches. However, fitness tracking assessment methods are ambiguous because they may differ from model to model. Objective: This study aimed to compare the stress level, heart rate, sleep time, number of steps, and distance traveled, which were calculated using fitness tracking methods for daily-life free activity installed in various smartwatches. Materials and Methodology: Healthy women in their 20s to 30s were recruited for this study, which was conducted from December 2021 to June 2022. The finalized participants wore three different smartwatch models (Mi smartband 6, vivosmart®4, and Band 6) simultaneously on their person for 48 hours and performed their daily activities and recorded them on an hour-based activity chart. Each smartwatch’s measured data (e.g., age, height, weight, and oral medications) were extracted into five datasets: heart rate, stress level, number of steps, distance, and sleep time. Data analyses were conducted using Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient ρ (for comparing heart rates) and Bland-Altman plots (for assessing heart rate agreement). The smartwatches’ fitness trackers were compared using the mean absolute percentage error. Results: The correlation coefficient showed that vivosmart®4 and Band 6 had a higher heart rate agreement (ρ = 0.684). The Bland-Altman plots showed high agreement between Band 6, Mi smartband 6, and vivosmart®4. The heart rate measurement method used under free movement was found to be consistent. The examined smartwatches were able to measure heart rate at the same level even under daily-life free movements. Conclusion: Several different smartwatches’ calculated measured values for heart rate had a high agreement. The smartwatches provided accurate heart rate measurements under daily-life free movement conditions. Furthermore, the calculation methods for stress level were found to differ in the fitness tracking of all the smartwatches. .

Aesthetic Utopia,Revolution in Daily Life and Identity Construction of Peasant Paintings

Peasant painting is a kind of painting created by farmers as creative subject,bearing rich significance.According to the historical development of peasant painting in reality,the types of meaning it carried could be divided into three types in chronological order:political ideological significance,folk life significance,and creative fashion significance.These three types of meaning gave rise to three types of aesthetic utopia,namely political aesthetic utopia,folk aesthetic utopia and fashion aesthetic utopia.The three types of aesthetic utopia reflected three forms of negation and revolution of daily life.What the political aesthetic utopia resisted was the alienation force of material desire.What folk aesthetic utopia resisted was the desire for material and the binding of political ideology.The fashion aesthetic utopia opposed the relatively narrow localism.Through these three forms of resistance,the public also constructed three identities:the interpreter of their own aesthetic interpretation of political ideology,the interpreter of their own aesthetic interpretation of real life from perspective of local feelings,and the interpreter of their own aesthetic interpretation of real life from perspective of the relationship between themselves and the world.

The influence of the mass culture on the contemporary college students＇ daily life

The mass culture penetrates into the world of the daily life of the contemporary college students in all directions. As the most sensitive group of the cultural assimilation, the college students practice various forms of the mass culture in their daily life. The popular culture and the everyday life are inseparable. The mass culture influences and changes the concept of our everyday life and the practice of our daily life, and enriches the connotation of the popular culture. The popular culture greatly enriches and expands the daily life of the college students with the features of the image, the nationhood and the consumption, but it also brings the negative effects that cannot be ignored. The daily life of the college students can be divided into several relative meanings according to their contents and forms, including the communication plate, the emotional plate and the leisure plate. Every meaning plate is concerned about the generation of values in the daily life of the college students, and the mass culture gives fresh and complicated contents to these meanings. How to find the values of their life and how to present oneself is the difficult problems and missions faced by the contemporary college students.

Analysis of the Application Effect of Family Collaborative Care Model on Elderly Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and the Situation of Self-Care Ability

Objective: To study the application effect of the family collaborative care model on elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and its influence on self-care ability. Methods: The elderly type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (400 cases) treated in our hospital between March 2020 and July 2023 were divided into two groups by randomized grouping method;the control group received the conventional nursing program, while the observation group received the family collaborative nursing model. Blood glucose level, self-care ability, and quality of life were compared between the groups. Results: The blood glucose level of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). The self- care ability and quality of life scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The family collaborative care model for elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus can promote their self- care ability, improve the effect of glycemic control, and improve their quality of life, and is suitable for further promotion and application.
