RESUMO
Introducción: La caries es una de las enfermedades crónicas que más afecta a la humanidad, los niños son un grupo de alto riesgo de presentarla. La Calidad de Vida Relacionada con Salud Oral (CVRSO) se refiere a la percepción de las condiciones bucales de uno mismo y la manera en que los factores afectados impactan el bienestar y desempeño en las actividades diarias, el desarrollo de indicadores de esta se ve limitado por el nivel cognitivo de los niños, lo que genera el P-CPQ para determinar la percepción parental. Objetivo: determinar la percepción parental de la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud bucal de los niños de 6 a 10 años. Materiales y Métodos: se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo con componente analítico. Se llevó a cabo una encuesta a 98 padres, el P-CPQ modificado que consta de 23 preguntas que abarcan las subescalas de síntomas orales, limitaciones funcionales, bienestar emocional y bienestar social. Resultados: Relacionando los resultados del cuestionario con la presencia de caries en dientes permanentes se reportó el aumento de caries con la edad; el sexo femenino predominó entre los participantes con caries siendo el 63,8%. La puntuación media fue de 13,6 (DE=13,1). Se presentó una asociación estadísticamente significativa entre la percepción parental de CVRSO de los niños y la presencia de caries dental en dientes permanentes (p=0,004). Conclusiones: Se concluyó que la presencia de caries en dientes permanentes en niños de 6 a 10 años puede disminuir significativamente la CVRSO en las dimensiones de síntomas orales, limitaciones funcionales y bienestar social.
Introduction: Caries is one of the chronic diseases that most affects humanity; children are a high-risk group for developing it. Oral Health Related Quality of Life (OHRQL) refers to the perception of one's own oral conditions and the way in which the affected factors impact well-being and performance in daily activities. The development of indicators of this is limited by the cognitive level of the children, which led to the P-CPQ to determine parental perception. Objective: to determine the parental perception of the quality of life related to the oral health of children from 6 to 10 years old. Materials and Methods: This was a descriptive and observational study with an analytical component. A survey of 98 parents was conducted, using the modified P-CPQ which consists of 23 questions covering the subscales of oral symptoms, functional limitations, emotional well-being, and social well-being. Results: Relating the results of the questionnaire with the presence of cavities in permanent teeth, an increase in cavities with age was reported; the female sex predominated among the participants with cavities, being 63.8%. The mean score was 13.6 (SD=13.1). There was a statistically significant association between parental perception of children's OHRQL and the presence of dental caries in permanent teeth (p=0.004). Conclusions: The presence of caries in permanent teeth in children aged 6 to 10 years can significantly reduce OHRQLin the dimensions of oral symptoms, functional limitations and social well-being.
RESUMO
Introducción: Personas con cáncer colorrectal (CCR) pueden presentar efectos adversos, perjudicando la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud (CVRS). Objetivo: Validar el módulo QLQ CR29 para evaluación de la CVRS, en Chile. Materiales y método: Estudio transversal que incluyó 170 personas con CCR. Se analizaron la consistencia interna y validez de constructo del instrumento con test de hipótesis. Resultados: 117 personas (68,8%) fueron evaluadas antes de la cirugía y 53 (31,2%) después de la cirugía. La consistencia interna del QLQ CR29 fue α = 0,838. Fueron comprobadas las hipótesis planteadas: Los pacientes evaluados antes de la cirugía se quejaron más de "sangre/mucosidad en las heces", "dolor abdominal", "pérdida de cabello" e "hinchazón abdominal", mientras que los pacientes evaluados después presentaron más "incontinencia fecal" (p < 0,05). Antes de la cirugía, los pacientes con cáncer de recto CCR presentaron mayores valores de "frecuencia urinaria", "frecuencia de deposiciones", "dolor en las nalgas", "problemas con el gusto" y "vergüenza"; mientras que aquellos con cáncer de colon que se quejaban más de "sangre/mucosidad en las heces" (p < 0,05). Después de la cirugía, los pacientes con cáncer de recto tenían mayor "frecuencia de deposiciones", "eliminación de gases" y "vergüenza" (p = 0,004) en comparación con los con cáncer de colon (p < 0,05). Los pacientes ostomizados presentaron más "incontinencia fecal" y "vergüenza" (p < 0,001). Fueron observadas correlaciones positivas y negativas bajas entre la mayoría de las dimensiones del QLQ CR29 con las dimensiones del QLQ C30. Conclusión: La versión chilena del módulo QLQ CR29 es adecuada para evaluar la CVRS en personas con CCR.
Introduction: People with colorectal cancer (CRC) can present adverse effects, impairing the quality of life related to health (HRQoL). Objective: To validate the QLQ-CR29 module for the assessment of HRQoL, in Chile. Materials and method: Cross-sectional study that included 170 people with CRC. The internal consistency and construct validity (hypothesis tests) were analyzed. Results: 117 patients (68.8%) were evaluated before surgery and 53 (31.2%) after tumor resection. The internal consistency of the QLQCR29 was α = 0.838. The proposed hypotheses were confirmed: The patients evaluated before surgery complained more of "blood/mucus in the stool", "abdominal pain", "hair loss" and "abdominal swelling", while the patients evaluated after presented more "fecal incontinence" (p < 0.05). Before surgery, patients with rectal cancer presented higher values of "urinary frequency", "frequency of stools", "pain in the buttocks", "taste problems" and "embarrassment"; while those with colon cancer complained more of "blood/mucus in stool" (p < 0.05). After surgery, patients with CCR had higher "stool frequency", "flatus" and "embarrassment" (p = 0.004) compared with those with colon cancer (p < 0.05). Ostomized patients presented more "fecal incontinence" and "embarrassment" (p < 0.001). Low significant correlations were observed between most of the dimensions of the QLQ CR29 with the dimensions of the QLQ C30. Conclusion: The Chilean version of the QLQ CR29 module is adequate to assess HRQoL in people with CRC.
RESUMO
The mortality rate of septic shock in children is high,and the number of cases has been increasing year by year.In recent years,the number of deaths has decreased with the development of medical technology.With the increasing number of surviving children with septic shock,the prognosis regarding these patients is gaining more attention of PICU physicians than before.The long-term sequelae of patients with septic shock,which often leads to multiple organ dysfunction and complications,severely affects the quality of children life after discharge from the hospital.Notably,the meaningful outcomes mainly include physical,mental,emotional,and social functioning.Currently,few studies focusing on quality of life in children surviving from septic shock have been reported in China.Herein,this review summarized the progress of research on the long-term prognosis of patients with septic shock.

RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the clinical efficacy and effects of periodontal endoscope (PE)-assisted subgingival scaling and root planning (SRP) and traditional SRP on the psychological and quality of life of patients with periodontitis.@*Methods@#This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee, and informed consent was obtained from the patients. Patients with periodontitis who were treated in the Department of Periodontology, Nanjing Stomatological Hospital, Medical School of Nanjing University from April 2018 to December 2022 with residual periodontal pockets (PD ≥ 5 mm) 6 weeks after traditional SRP treatment were enrolled, and the residual periodontal pockets were further treated with PE-assisted SRP (PE+SRP). After 6 weeks of traditional SRP treatment and 3 months of PE+SRP treatment, clinical indicators, including plaque index (PLI), probing depth (PD), clinical attachment loss (CAL) and bleeding on probing (BOP), were measured, and periodontal tissue self-awareness scale scores, oral health impact profile-14 (OHIP-14) score and dental fear scale (DFS) score were collected. Moreover, visual analog scale (VAS) scores were collected after traditional SRP and PE-assisted SRP treatments.@*Results@#Twenty-three patients with periodontitis, including 832 sites of 486 affected teeth, were included in the clinical study. Three months after PE+SRP treatment, all clinical periodontal indicators, PLI (t = 9.254, P<0.001), PD (t = 50.724, P<0.001), CAL (t = 22.407, P<0.001) and BOP (t = 9.217, P<0.001), were significantly improved. Compared with traditional SRP (VAS: 2.48 ± 1.70), the pain caused by PE+SRP (VAS: 2.57±1.80) was not significantly different (t = 0,192, P = 0.850). There was no significant difference in the scores of the periodontal tissue self-awareness scale between the two groups (t = 1.485, P = 0.152). The OHIP-14 (SRP: 12.13±7.63; PE+SRP: 10.26 ± 5.25, t = -1.589, P = 0.126) and DFS (SRP: 40.70 ± 12.63; SRP+PE: 41.57 ± 12.61, t = 0.404, P = 0.690) scores were not significantly different.@*Conclusion@#All clinical periodontal indicators were significantly improved after PE-assisted SRP treatment of residual periodontal pockets, and compared with traditional SRP, PE-assisted SRP had no negative impact on the quality of life or psychological status of patients with periodontitis. Therefore, PE+SRP can be promoted in clinical practice.
RESUMO
@#Introduction: Work ability is the relationship between a person’s personality, health, lifestyle, and employment-related factors. There are, however, few studies evaluating the variables linked to school teachers’ work ability. The purpose of this study was to assess school teachers’ work ability and the factors that affect it. Methods: A cross-sectional study of secondary school teachers was carried out. Sociodemographic characteristics, physical activity, body mass index, low back pain (LBP), psychological factors, work-related factors, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), and work ability were all collected through the questionnaire. The association between potential factors and job ability was investigated using ordinal logistic regression. Results were presented using odds ratios (OR) and 95 % confidence intervals (CI). Results: Of 1280, there were 1037 (81.0%) teachers who returned the questionnaire. The majority (71.9%) of the participants had moderate work ability, while 22.6% had good, and 5.5% had poor work ability. None of them were particularly had excellent work ability. The factors associated with increased work ability in the multivariable analysis were better HRQoL, namely physical (OR 1.11, 95%CI: 1.07, 1.15) and mental (OR 1.12, 95%CI: 1.06, 1.16) health and wellbeing. Conclusion: Positive associations exist between a teacher’s work ability and their physical and emotional well-being. Henceforth suggesting that these factors should be incorporated in workplace health promotion programs to maintain teachers’ work ability.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Objective: The present study aims to outline the epidemiological parameters of patients with scoliosis between the ages of 0 and 18 years old, who were evaluated at the Getúlio Vargas Hospital in Recife-PE. Methods: The participants completed a demographic questionnaire, followed by clinical evaluation, including Cobb angle measurement, clinical photographic registration and quality of life questionnaires. Results: The sample consisted of 103 patients, mostly females, with a mean age of 13.86 years, from the interior of the state, diagnosed with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis classified as Lenke 1. Neuromuscular and congenital scoliosis were less common. The quality-of-life questionnaire showed a significant difference in self-image perception among patients with idiopathic scoliosis, those who had a curve measuring under 50 degrees had better scores than those who had greater angles. Patients with larger curves scored lower on all questionnaire items, but there was no significant difference when compared to the other group. Conclusion: It was shown that the main epidemiological parameters in the pediatric population with scoliosis are girls, mean age 13 years, coming from the interior of the state being idiopathic scoliosis, the most common, classified as Lenke 1. Neuromuscular scoliosis was the main type of deformity following the idiopathic; cerebral palsy being the most common etiology.

RESUMO: Objetivo: Traçar o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes portadores de escoliose entre as idades de 0 até 18 anos no Hospital Getúlio Vargas em Recife-PE. Métodos: Estudo transversal em que os participantes foram submetidos a um questionário demográfico, em seguida tiveram seu perfil clínico avaliado com a medição do ângulo de Cobb, realização de fotografias clínicas e aplicação de questionários de qualidade de vida. Resultados: A amostra foi construída com 103 pacientes, em sua maioria do gênero feminino, com idade média de 13,68 anos, provenientes do interior do estado, com diagnóstico de escoliose idiopática do adolescente classificadas como Lenke 1. Escoliose neuromuscular e congênita estiveram presentes em menor número. O questionário de qualidade de vida aplicado mostrou que houve diferença significativa na percepção da autoimagem de pacientes com escoliose idiopática que tinham curvas menores que 50 graus em relação aos que tinham maior deformidade. Aqueles com curvas de maior valor angular apresentavam menor pontuação em todos os quesitos do questionário, sugerindo pior qualidade de vida, mas não houve diferença significativa. Conclusão: Conclui-se que, o perfil epidemiológico dos pacientes portadores de escoliose pediátrica é formado por meninas com escoliose idiopática, com média de idade de 13 anos, provenientes do interior do estado, tendo diagnóstico de escoliose idiopática classificada como Lenke 1. Dos demais tipos de escoliose, o mais prevalente foi a escoliose neuromuscular secundária à paralisia cerebral.

Stress and discrimination negatively affect quality of life, but social support may buffer their effects. This study aims: (1) to examine the associations between psychological stress, discrimination, and oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL); and (2) to assess whether social support, stress and discrimination interact to modify their associations with OHRQoL. We used cross-sectional household-based data from a study including 396 individuals aged 14 years and over from families registered for government social benefits in a city in Southern Brazil. OHRQoL was measured with the Oral Impacts on Daily Performance (OIDP) scale; psychological stress was assessed with the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS); social support was assessed based on the number of close relatives or friends of the participant, and discrimination was assessed with a short version of the Everyday Discrimination Scale. Interactions were estimated using the relative excess of risk due to interaction (RERI). Adjusted effects were calculated with logistic regression. The prevalence of oral impacts among people with higher and lower PSS scores was 81.6% and 65.5%, respectively (p < 0.01). Social support was found to have no interactions with stress levels and discrimination. The association between social discrimination and OHRQoL (OIDP score > 0) was OR = 2.03 (95%CI: 1.23; 3.34) among people with a low level of stress, but was OR = 12.6 (95%CI: 1.31; 120.9) among those with higher levels (p = 0.09, for interaction). Individuals who reported experiencing higher levels of psychological stress and discrimination had worse OHRQoL; a synergistic effect with social support was not clear.
O estresse e a discriminação afetam negativamente a qualidade de vida, mas o apoio social pode amortecer seus efeitos. Os objetivos deste estudo são: (1) examinar as associações entre estresse psicológico, discriminação e qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde bucal (QVRSB); e (2) avaliar se apoio social, estresse e discriminação interagem para modificar suas associações com QVRSB. Os dados são de uma pesquisa transversal de base domiciliar de um estudo que incluiu 396 indivíduos com 14 anos ou mais de famílias registradas para benefícios federais em uma cidade no sul do Brasil. A QVRSB foi mensurada pelo Impactos Orais no Desempenho Diário (OIDP), enquanto o estresse psicológico foi avaliado pela Escala de Estresse Percebido (PSS). Além disso, o apoio social foi avaliado pelo número de parentes ou amigos próximos e a discriminação por meio da Escala de Discriminação Diária (EDS). As interações foram estimadas por meio do excesso relativo de risco devido à interação (RERI). Os efeitos ajustados foram calculados por meio de regressão logística. A prevalência de impactos bucais entre as pessoas com maior e menor escores de PSS foi de 81,6% e 65,5%, respectivamente (p < 0,01). O apoio social mostra interações inclusivas com níveis de estresse e discriminação. A associação entre discriminação social e QVRSB (escore OIDP > 0) foi OR = 2,03 (IC95%: 1,23; 3,34) dentre pessoas com baixo nível de estresse, mas foi de OR = 12,6 (IC95%: 1,31; 120,9) dentre aqueles com níveis mais altos (p = 0,09, para interação). Indivíduos que relataram níveis mais elevados de estresse psicológico e discriminação apresentaram pior QVRSB; o efeito sinérgico com o apoio social não foi evidente.

El apoyo social se basó en el número de familiares o amigos cercanos, y la discriminación en la Escala de Discriminación Cotidiana (EDS). Las interacciones se estimaron mediante el excesivo de riesgo relativo debido a la interacción (RERI). Los efectos ajustados se calcularon mediante regresión logística. La prevalencia de impactos orales entre las personas con puntajes de PSS más altas y más bajas fue del 81,6% y del 65,5%, respectivamente (p < 0,01). El apoyo social presenta interacciones inclusivas con niveles de estrés y discriminación. La asociación entre discriminación social y OHRQoL (puntuación OIDP > 0) fue OR = 2,03 (IC95%: 1,23; 3,34) entre personas con un nivel bajo de estrés, pero fue OR = 12,6 (IC95%: 1,31; 120,9) entre aquellos con niveles más altos (p = 0,09, para interacción). Las personas que informaron tener niveles más elevados de estrés psicológico y discriminación tuvieron una peor CVRSB; el efecto sinérgico con el apoyo social no estaba claro.
RESUMO
ABSTRACT Introduction Instruments to manage adverse effects of endocrine therapy with Aromatase inhibitors (AI) may improve adherence and persistence to treatment and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL). The 31-item Cervantes Scale (CS-31) is an HRQL questionnaire with particularities of the perimenopausal and postmenopausal period that could be an appropriate instrument to assess HRQL in Breast Cancer (BC) survivors. Objective This study aimed to perform additional validation of the CS-31 for BC survivors undergoing adjuvant endocrine therapy. Methods This prospective study was performed at three time points named T0, T1, and T2: initial, intermediate, and final follow-up period, respectively, totaling 24 months of follow-up. At each time point, the participants completed the CS-31, Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Fatigue (FACIT-F), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The internal consistency, construct validity, responsiveness analyses, and known-group validity of CS-31 were evaluated. Results This study included 89 postmenopausal women diagnosed with hormone receptor-positive early BC in adjuvant endocrine therapy with AI. The internal consistency was good (Cronbach's alpha = 0.89). Construct validity received a positive rating, with 100% of results consistent with prior hypotheses. A prospective improvement in HRQL was identified for the CS-31 Global Score and FACIT-F Total Score and for most of their domains. Furthermore, women with anxiety and depression by HADS presented worse HRQL by CS-31. Conclusion The authors identified that the CS-31 seems to be appropriate for use in oncology medical routine and may help to monitor adverse effects and HRQL of BC survivors during adjuvant endocrine therapy.

Abstract To evaluate the impact of genetic polymorphisms in interleukins (IL1A rs17561, rs1304037; IL10 rs1800871; IL1RN rs9005), nitric oxide (NOS2 rs2779249, rs2897518) and suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS1 rs243327, rs33977706) on oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) of patients under-going root canal treatment (RCT). Methods: The sample consisted of 108 participants, presenting single-rooted teeth with asymptomatic periapical periodontitis. The impact of the OHRQoL was recorded using the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP-14) before, seven, and 30 days after RCT. Saliva samples were collected as a source of genomic DNA. Genetic polymorphisms were genotyped by Real-Time PCR using the Taqman method. Univariate and Multivariate analyses were used (p<0.05). Results: A significant difference was observed for the polymorphism rs2297518 in the NOS2 gene in functional limitation in the codominant (p=0.037) and recessive (p=0.001) models; in the physical pain (p<0.001 in both models); in psychological discomfort (p<0.001 in both models); in physical disability (p<0.001 in both models) and in psychological disability (p<0.001 in both models). Polymorphisms in the SOCS1 gene, in the recessive model, rs33977706 (p=0.045) and rs243327 (p=0.019), influenced the OHRQoL in the psychological discomfort domain. Conclusions: Polymorphisms in NOS2 and SOCS1 genes influenced the OHRQoL of patients undergoing RCT.

Resultados: Os entrevistados tinham idade média de 29,87 anos (DP: 8,41) e eram em sua maioria do sexo feminino (78,92%), solteiros (79,41%), sem filhos (59,31%), no segundo ano do curso de enfermagem (43,14%) e no turno da manhã (40,69%). Relativamente ao autocuidado, verificou-se uma baixa prevalência de tabagismo (18,14%) e uma alta prevalência de sedentarismo (67,16%), a maioria foi ao médico duas vezes por ano (58,33%) e fez análises sanguíneas anuais (57,35%). Ao analisar as dimensões que compõem a qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde, verificou-se que a Função Física foi a mais bem classificada com uma média de 89,95 (DP: 13,45), enquanto a Vitalidade obteve a classificação mais baixa com uma média de 49,12 (DP: 17,24). Conclusões: Com exceção da Vitalidade, todas as dimensões avaliadas foram avaliadas positivamente. O sexo (masculino), o ano curricular (terceiro ano), o turno (noturno), o índice de massa corporal (normal) e a realização de atividades de autocuidado estavam positivamente relacionados com a qualidade de vida.
RESUMO
Abstract Reduced sleep duration, poor sleep quality and fatigue are related to reduced immunity and increased inflammatory markers. Due to its potential to influence inflammation, poor sleep quality and fatigue could be factors for periodontitis and quality of life. Ninety-three individuals with untreated periodontitis and thirty-one individuals with healthy gingiva were included in the study. The research involved a clinical examination and a questionnaire. Demographic information, information on oral health, oral hygiene habits, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Jenkins Sleep Scale, Multidimensional Assessment of Fatigue Scale, and Oral Health Impact Profile-14 were included in the questionnaire. Patients were diagnosed based on the 2017 World Workshop on the Classification of Periodontal and Peri-Implant Diseases and Conditions. No statistically significant difference was revealed between sleep quality, fatigue, oral health related quality of life, and stage-grade of periodontitis (p<0.05). However, periodontitis group had higher Oral Health Impact Profile-14 scores (p<0.05). A statistically significantly lower sleep duration was observed in stage IV periodontitis group than the other groups (p<0.05). A statistically significant positive correlation was observed between the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and the scores of the other questionnaires (p<0.05). The stage of periodontitis may impact sleep duration.
Resumen La reducción de la duración del sueño, la mala calidad del sueño y la fatiga están relacionados con una inmunidad reducida y un aumento de los marcadores inflamatorios. Debido a su potencial para influir en la inflamación, la mala calidad del sueño y la fatiga podrían ser factores determinantes en el desarrollo de la periodontitis e incidir en la calidad de vida. Noventa y tres personas con periodontitis no tratada, además de treinta y una personas con encía sana se incluyeron en el estudio. La investigación involucró un examen clínico y un cuestionario. En el cuestionario se incluyeron información demográfica, información sobre salud bucal, hábitos de higiene bucal, el índice de calidad del sueño de Pittsburgh, la escala de sueño de Jenkins, la escala de evaluación multidimensional de la fatiga y el perfil de impacto en la salud bucal-14. Los pacientes fueron diagnosticados en base al Taller Mundial 2017 sobre la Clasificación de Enfermedades y Condiciones Periodontales y Periimplantarias. No se revelaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre la calidad del sueño, la fatiga, la calidad de vida relacionada con la salud bucal y el grado de etapa de la periodontitis (p<0,05). Sin embargo, el grupo de periodontitis tuvo puntajes más altos en el Perfil de Impacto en la Salud Oral-14 (p<0.05). Se observó una duración del sueño significativamente menor desde el punto de vista estadístico en el grupo de periodontitis en estadio IV que en los otros grupos (p<0,05). Se observó una correlación positiva estadísticamente significativa entre el Índice de Calidad del Sueño de Pittsburgh y las puntuaciones de los otros cuestionarios (p<0,05). La etapa de la periodontitis puede afectar la duración del sueño.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of scapular kinesiotaping and sham-taping applications on upper extremity functionality in healthy active subjects. METHODS: In total, 60 participants were randomly divided into two groups: scapular kinesiotaping group (n=30) and sham-taping group (n=30). While scapular kinesiotaping was applied to the kinesiotaping group, scapular rigid taping was applied to the sham-taping group. At the end of the third day of the taping application, the individuals were re-evaluated. RESULTS: Participants in the scapular kinesiotaping group showed improvement in upper extremity functionality and quality of life after taping (p<0.05). In the sham-taping group, there was no statistically significant difference after taping (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: Scapular kinesiotaping is effective in improving upper extremity functionality in healthy active subjects.

ntroduction: Venous ulcers are the most common vascular injury in the adult population. They affect the quality of life, so people who suffer from venous ulcers require an interdisciplinary approach to their care. Objective: To describe clinical and social variables that affect the health-related quality of life of a group of adults with venous ulcers. Methods: Observational cohort study carried out with 80 people examined in three medical centers in Medellín (Colombia) and who were given the Charing Cross Venous Ulcer Questionnaire to answer. Sociodemographic variables and the quality-of-life evolution until scarring were described. A logistic regression model was built to explain the variables associated with having the poorest quality of life. Results:There were28.8% of the participants who scored 64 or more points on the first quality of life measurement, which indicates a highly affected quality of life; 68.8% scored 63 or less, indicating a moderately affected quality of life, while only 2.4% indicated a slightly affected quality of life. The worst scores were seen among women, older participants, and those with greater ulcer severity. The dimensions of emotional status, cosmesis, social interaction, and domestic activities were affected, although there was a favorable evolution of the quality of life while the ulcer was healing. Conclusions: Health-related quality of life is highly affected in people with venous ulcers and is more common in those with constant pain, larger and older sores, and those with poor health perceptions. Therefore, timely professional and interdisciplinary healthcare interventions are required to achieve wound healing and wellness and improve quality of life

Objetivo:descrever as variáveis clínicas e sociais que interferem na qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde de um grupo de adultos com úlcera venosa.Métodos:estudo de coorte observacional; incluíram-se 80 pessoas avaliadas em três clínicas em Medellín (Colômbia), nas quais foi aplicado o instrumento de avaliação Charing Cross Venous Ulcer Questionnaire. Descreveram-se as variáveis sociodemográficas e a evolução da qualidade de vida até a cicatrizaçãoe construiu-se um modelo de regressão logística para explicar as variáveis associadas à pior qualidade de vida.Resultados: 28,8% dos participantes obtiveram 64 ou mais pontos, ou seja, alto grau de condição na primeira mensuração da qualidade de vida; em 68,8% a pontuação foi de 63 ou menos, o que significa condição moderada e apenas 2,4% em condição baixa. As piores pontuações foram registradas em mulheres, participantes mais velhos e naqueles com maior complicação da ferida; a afecção,envolvia as dimensões Estado Emocional, Estética, Função Social e Atividades Domésticas, embora houvesse evolução favorável da qualidade de vida enquanto a úlcera cicatrizava. Conclusões:a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde é altamente afetada em pessoas com úlcera venosa, sendo mais frequente naquelas com dor constante, feridasmaiores, mais antigas e com má percepção de saúde; portanto, é necessária intervenção oportuna profissional e interdisciplinar em saúde para alcançar a cicatrização e o bem-estar e melhorar a qualidade de vida
RESUMO
Introducción: La calidad de vida relacionada con la salud medida a través de los "resultados reportados por pacientes", del inglés: patient reported outcomes (PROs) permite la detección efectiva de problemas físicos y psicológicos en pacientes con hepatitis crónica. Objetivo: Describir las dimensiones de calidad de vida más afectadas reportados por pacientes con infección crónica por virus de la Hepatitis C y B. Material y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, transversal desde junio 2018 hasta diciembre 2020 en el Instituto de Gastroenterología (IGE). Entre 1 706 pacientes con diagnóstico VHB y VHC atendidos, la muestra quedó constituida por 366 adultos con infección crónica por los virus de hepatitis B (VHB) y C (VHC). Se registraron los resultados de las encuestas: Evaluación Funcional para el Tratamiento de Enfermedades Crónicas -Fatiga (FACIT-F) y Cuestionario de Impedimento de la Productividad y Actividad Laboral- Problema de salud específico (WPAI-SPH) y parámetros clínico-demográficos. Resultados: Se identificaron 271 (74,0 %) pacientes con diagnóstico de VHC y 95 (26,0 %) de VHB, con edad media 54,0 ± 12,7 años, 209 (57,1 %) mujeres. La puntuación total de la FACIT-F estuvo más afectada en VHC (FACIT-F: HVB: 129,0 ± 15,9 vs. VHC: 111,2 ± 23,5; p<0,0001), quienes a su vez tuvieron mayor deterioro de la actividad laboral (WPAI-SPH: VHB: 0,309 ± 0,312 vs. VHC: 0,386 ± 0,333; p<0,05). Conclusiones: Los pacientes con VHC vivencian una peor calidad de vida que compromete su bienestar, rendimiento laboral y cotidiano.
Introduction: Health-related quality of life measured through "patient-reported outcomes" (PROs) allows effective detection of physical and psychological problems in patients with chronic hepatitis. Objective: To identify the quality of life outcomes reported by patients with chronic hepatitis C and B virus infection. Material and Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study was conducted from June 2018 to December 2020 at the Institute of Gastroenterology. Of 1 706 patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, 366 adults were included in the sample. Data was collected using validated instruments: Functional Assessment for Chronic Illness Treatment-Fatigue Scale (FACIT-F) and Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire: Specific Health Problem (WPAI-SPH). Clinical and demographic parameters were also recorded. Results: A total of 271 (74.0%) patients with HCV and 95 (26.0%) HBV diagnosis were identified, mean (SD) age 54.0 ± 12.7, and 209 (57.1%) women. The FACIT-F total score was more affected in HCV (FACIT-F: HBV: 129.0 ± 15.9 vs. HCV: 111.2 ± 23.5; p<0.0001); these patients also had greater impairment in work activity (WPAI-SPH: HBV: 0.309 ± 0.312 vs. HCV: 0.386 ± 0.333; p<0.05). Conclusions: Patients with HCV have a worse quality of life that compromises their well-being, work and daily performance.
RESUMO
Resumo: O diagnóstico da doença renal crônica acarreta, muitas vezes, modificações às quais obrigam a pessoa a reduzir a jornada de trabalho, diminuindo a renda familiar, situação que pode ocasionar um fenômeno chamado toxicidade financeira que contribui para redução da qualidade de vida relacionada a saúde. Trata-se de um estudo observacional, analítico e correlacional com corte transversal de abordagem quantitativa, com objetivo de investigar a relação da toxicidade financeira na qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde de pessoas com doença renal crônica em tratamento hemodialítico. A coleta de dados foi realizada de fevereiro de 2022 a maio de 2022 em um grupo de clínicas de diálise de Curitiba-PR e Região Metropolitana. O processo de amostragem foi probabilístico, mas o recrutamento foi por conveniência, obedecendo aos critérios de inclusão: pessoas com doença renal crônica, idade igual ou acima de 18 anos e que estavam em tratamento hemodialítico por período maior que seis meses (n=214). Para realização do estudo, foram utilizados os instrumentos sociodemográfico e clínico, Comprehensive Score For Financial Toxicity - COST e Kidney Disease Quality Of Life - Short Form -KDQOL-SFTM. A análise dos dados foi realizada descritivamente com frequências absolutas e relativas das variáveis da caracterização sociodemográfica e clínica da população do estudo, para os escores da toxicidade financeira e qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde foi usado o odds ratio, modelos de regressão logística bayesiano e o método de análise de variância (Anova). Participaram do estudo 214 pessoas com doença renal crônica, sendo 54,67% do sexo masculino, 52,80% tinham 60 anos ou mais, 53,52% eram casados ou estavam em união consensual, 56,07% tinham de 1 a 3 filhos, mais da metade 54,67% tinham menos de 9 anos de escolaridade, 54,97% eram aposentados, 81,75% apresentavam alguma comorbidade além da doença renal crônica, 59,34% tinham o diagnóstico de doença renal crônica de 1 a 5 anos, 88,26% faziam uso de medicação de uso contínuo, 69,69% não eram tabagistas e 72,89% não ingeriam bebida alcoólica. Em relação à toxicidade financeira, a média do escore total encontrado, considerando todas as unidades de coleta de dados, foi de 20,30/44. Pessoas do sexo feminino e renda familiar mensal de no máximo dois salários-mínimos têm maiores chances de apresentarem algum grau de toxicidade financeira (odds ratio: 0,85; 0,76). Verificou-se que na relação entre as medidas COST e qualidade de vida relacionado à saúde o maior impacto da toxicidade financeira foi associado a pior qualidade de vida relacionado à saúde. Sendo assim, foi identificado neste estudo a existência da toxicidade financeira em pessoas com doença renal crônica em hemodiálise e há, também, associação dos piores graus de toxicidade financeira com características sociodemográficas e clínicas. Portanto, a mensuração da toxicidade financeira pode auxiliar a enfermagem a orientar ações para minimizar esse evento.
Abstract: The diagnosis of chronic kidney disease often entails changes that force the person to reduce the workday, reducing family income, a situation that can cause a phenomenon called financial toxicity that contributes to a reduction in the quality of life related to health. This is an observational, analytical and correlational study with a cross-sectional quantitative approach, with the aim of investigating the relationship between financial toxicity and the health-related quality of life of people with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis treatment. Data collection was carried out from February 2022 to May 2022 in a group of dialysis clinics in Curitiba-PR and the Metropolitan Region. The sampling process was probabilistic, but the recruitment was for convenience, according to the inclusion criteria: people with chronic kidney disease, aged 18 years or older and who were on hemodialysis for a period longer than six months (n=214). To carry out the study, the sociodemographic and clinical instruments, Comprehensive Score For Financial Toxicity - COST and Kidney Disease Quality Of Life - Short Form -KDQOL-SFTM were used. Data analysis was performed descriptively with absolute and relative frequencies of the variables of the sociodemographic and clinical characterization of the study population, for the scores of financial toxicity and health-related quality of life, the odds ratio, Bayesian logistic regression models and the analysis of variance method (Anova). The study included 214 people with chronic kidney disease, 54.67% male, 52.80% aged 60 years or older, 53.52% married or in a consensual union, 56.07% had 1 to 3 children, more than half 54.67% had less than 9 years of schooling, 54.97% were retired, 81.75% had some comorbidity in addition to chronic kidney disease, 59.34% had a diagnosis of chronic kidney disease from 1 to 5 years, 88.26% used continuous medication, 69.69% were non-smokers and 72.89% did not drink alcohol. Regarding financial toxicity, the mean total score found, considering all data collection units, was 20.30/44. Females with a monthly family income of at most two minimum wages are more likely to have some degree of financial toxicity (odds ratio: 0,85; 0.76). It was found that in the relationship between COST measures and health-related quality of life, the greater impact of financial toxicity was associated with worse health-related quality of life. Therefore, this study identified the existence of financial toxicity in people with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis and there is also an association of the worst degrees of financial toxicity with sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. Therefore, measuring financial toxicity can help nursing guide actions to minimize this event.

Objective:To evaluate the health related quality of life (HRQoL) of hip fracture patients after surgery and build a prediction model to identify high-risk patients with HRQoL decline.Methods:A cross-sectional research method was applied to select 135 patients with unilateral hip fractures from January 2020 to June 2021 in Hainan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine using convenience sampling as the study population. HRQoL was self-assessed using the European Five-Dimensional Health Scale (EQ-5D).Logistic regression models were used to identify risk factors for HRQoL decline. The columnar plots′ predictive accuracy and net clinical benefit were assessed using calibration curves, ROC curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA).Results:The final number of patients with valid follow-up was 122.At 6 and 12 months postoperatively, the EQ-5D index was lower than before the fracture in 41(33.6%) patients, showing a strong correlation with the Barthel index ( r=0.833, 0.705, both P<0.05). Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) ( OR=1.352), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) ( OR=1.121), hip replacement ( OR=0.795), and lung infection ( OR=1.328) were independently associated with a decrease in HRQoL in patients with hip fracture (all P<0.05). The consistency index (C-index) of the column line plot was 0.889 (0.791 to 0.955), and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.871 (0.784 to 0.947). The DCA results showed that the model provided good net clinical benefit. Conclusions:The model can effectively identify patients at high risk of declining HRQoL, which is helpful to determine priority patients to provide nursing strategies.
