Objective:To investigate the self-care contribution and binary coping level of spouse caregivers for middle-aged and young stroke patients and explore the relationship between the two, in order to improve the quality of self-care contribution of spouse caregivers to middle-aged and young stroke patients.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 200 middle-aged and young stroke patients ′ spouse caregivers in the People ′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January to June 2023 by the general data questionnaire, the Caregiver Contribution to Self-care of Stroke Patient Scale, the Dyadic Coping Inventory. The correlation between self-care contributions and binary coping strategies of spousal caregivers was analyzed, and the factors that affect their self-care contributions were screened. Results:Finally, 192 middle-aged and young stroke patients ′ spouse caregivers were included, including 70 males and 122 females, aged 18-59 years old. The total score of self-care contribution of spousal caregivers of middle-aged and young stroke patients was (75.43 ± 6.80) points, and the total score of binary coping was (117.12 ± 9.59) points, both of which were positively correlated ( r=0.691, P<0.05). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that after controlling for the influence of general data, binary coping could explain 28.4% variation in the self-care contribution of spouse caregivers of middle-aged and young stroke patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The duality coping level positively predicts the quality of spouse caregivers ′ self-care contribution to middle-aged and young stroke patients. Medical staff should assess the dual coping level of middle-aged and young stroke patients and their spouses, and carry out targeted dual intervention measures to improve the quality of caregivers' contribution to stroke patients ′ self-care.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of dietary behavior change of young and middle-aged patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from the perspective of the family system, so as to provide the basis for home dietary intervention of patients.Methods:Using the phenomenological research method, 32 young and middle-aged PCI patients and their family members from Department of Cardiology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University were interviewed in a semi-structured in-depth way by purposive sampling method from May to October 2022, and the data were analyzed by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:Among the 32 surveyed individuals, there were 17 males and 15 females, aged 22-61 years old. Two themes of dietary behavior change facilitators and barriers of young and middle-aged patients after PCI were extracted. The facilitators included six subthemes: behavioral autonomy, adaptive change, small family size, motivation for family responsibility, internal family resources, and external family resources. The barriers included five subthemes: bad learned habits, special physical conditions, lack of nutritional literacy, passive dietary environment, and limited economic level.Conclusions:Dietary behavior changes in young and middle-aged patients after PCI were affected by individual and family factors in the family. Medical staff should establish a family-centered dietary management model and integrate the advantages of family resources to give patients targeted individualized nutrition intervention.
RESUMEN
Background The number of persons with thyroid nodules has increased rapidly in recent years, and thyroid cancer caused by malignant nodules has become a key problem endangering the health of young and middle-aged groups in China. Objective To explore work and lifestyle influencing factors for developing thyroid cancer among young and middle-aged patients with thyroid nodules. Methods The subjects with thyroid nodules were reported by routine physical examines ordered at the Huadong Sanatorium. We conducted a 1∶4 matched case-control study in which 232 patients diagnosed with thyroid cancer from 2012 to 2022 were matched to 928 controls by gender and age (±5 years). A validated questionnaire was used to collect data on work and lifestyle behaviors. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were applied to explore potential relationships between selected factors (including environment, working hours, stress, diet, exercise, and mental health) and thyroid cancer. Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlations between variables. Results The results of univariate logistic regression showed a history of thyroid cancer reported among first-degree relatives (OR=6.059, 95%CI: 1.007, 36.473), obesity (OR=1.973, 95%CI: 1.296, 3.004), noise and vibration exposure (OR=1.988, 95%CI: 1.143, 3.456), frequent stress (OR=2.093, 95%CI: 1.231, 3.559), frequent depression (OR=2.034, 95%CI: 1.048, 3.947), frequent anger (OR=1.791, 95%CI: 1.066, 3.012), frequent fried food diet (OR=1.535, 95%CI: 1.026, 2.297), and frequent fast food diet (OR=1.836, 95%CI: 1.048, 3.215) were risk factors for reporting thyroid cancer developing from thyroid nodules, while regular meals (OR=0.245, 95%CI: 0.061, 0.989) and frequent exercise (OR=0.571, 95%CI: 0.342, 0.952) were protective factors for reporting no thyroid cancer. The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that body mass index was positively correlated with frequent fried food, fast food, and sugary beverage diets (r=0.123, 0.083, 0.077, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with frequent depression and anger (r=−0.090, −0.070, P<0.05). The results of multiple logistic regression found that a history of thyroid cancer reported among first-degree relatives (OR=6.712, 95%CI: 1.071, 42.066), obesity (OR=2.032, 95%CI: 1.321, 3.125), noise and vibration exposure (OR=1.991, 95%CI: 1.089, 3.637), and frequent stress (OR=2.468, 95%CI: 1.417, 4.300) were associated with an elevated risk of reporting thyroid cancer developing from thyroid nodules patients. Regular exercise (frequency≥3 times·week−1, > 30 min per episode) (OR=0.516, 95%CI: 0.300, 0.890) was associated with a lowered risk of reporting thyroid cancer. Conclusions Multiple risk factors associated with reporting thyroid cancer among young and middle-aged groups with thyroid nodules are identified, such as obesity, noise and vibration exposure, frequent stress, and lack of exercise.

Objective To conduct a retrospective cohort study on the influencing factors of poor prognosis of young and middle-aged patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods Selecting 426 young and middle-aged patients who were diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis in our hospital from January to December 2018 as the research subjects. Collecting the social demography information of all patients and the information of potential factors affecting the prognosis (allergy history, smoking history, drinking history, BMI level, disease information, treatment information, etc.) and discussing the factors affecting the prognosis of young and middle-aged pulmonary tuberculosis patients and their effects. Results The average age of 426 patients was (41.93±5.17) years old, the average BMI of them was (21.97±3.15) kg/m2, and an average course of disease of them was (2.76±0.99) years. There was no significant difference in the basic sexual information between men and women. In this study, a total of 128 patients with poor prognosis were retrospectively followed up, including 90 males and 38 females. The detection rate of males was significantly higher than that of females (χ2=16.976, P2=18.850, P2=38.924, P2=127.207, P2=32.566, P2=16.715, P2=17.315, P2=16.976，P1 and P1 and P<0.05; Regular treatment still showed potential protective factors, with an HR of 0.408, P<0.05. Conclusion: Male, emaciated body type, disease course ≥ 5 years, smoking history, number of lung field lesions ≥ 3, presence of pulmonary cavities and comorbidities are potential risk factors, while regular treatment suggests potential protective factors. Conclusion More targeted disease control and management should be implemented for middle-aged and young patients with pulmonary tuberculosis based on the aforementioned influencing factors to improve their prognosis.

RESUMEN
【Objective】 To investigate the association between remnant cholesterol (RC) and triglyceride and glucose (TyG) index in young and middle-aged patients with ischemic stroke. 【Methods】 A total of 268 patients were divided into two groups, namely low TyG index group (n=134) and high TyG index group (n=134). Characteristics of the study population and metabolism risk factors (TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, UA) were collected from biochemical test results. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between metabolism risk factors and TyG index. Multivariate conditional logistic regression analyses were used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for RC and TyG index. 【Results】 Compared with the low TyG index group, significant differences were observed for BMI, history of diabetes, history of hypertension, SBP, DBP, FBG, TC, TG, LDL-C, RC, UA, and TyG index in high TyG index group. No significant differences were observed in age, gender, smoking status, or drinking status, HDL-C between the two groups. Spearman correlation analysis indicated that significant linear associations were observed between BMI, SBP, DBP, FBG, TC, TG, HDL-C, LDL-C, RC, UA and TyG index. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the RC, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, TC, LDL-C, and UA were significantly associated with the risk of increased level of TyG index. After adjusted analysis by RC, BMI, hypertension, diabetes, TC, LDL-C, and UA, only RC was significantly associated with an increased risk of increased level of TyG index. 【Conclusion】 Remnant cholesterol was associated with an increased risk of elevated TyG index level in young and middle-aged patients with ischemic stroke.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#This study aimed to examine the trends in stroke mortality among young and middle-aged adults in China.@*METHODS@#Data were obtained from the China national vital registration system. Significant changes in mortality were assessed by Joinpoint regression. Age-period-cohort analysis was used to explain the reasons for the changes. Future mortality and counts were predicted by the Bayesian age-period-cohort model.@*RESULTS@#Between 2002 and 2019, a total of 6,253,951 stroke mortality in young and middle-aged adults were recorded. The age-adjusted mortality rates (AAMRs) of women showed a downward trend. The annual percent changes (APC) were -3.5% (-5.2%, -1.7%) for urban women and -2.8% (-3.7%, -1.9%) for rural women. By contrast, the AAMRs per 100,000 for rural men aged 25-44 years continued to rise from 9.40 to 15.46. The AAMRS for urban men aged 25-44 years and urban and rural men aged 45-64 years did not change significantly. Between 2020 and 2030, the projected stroke deaths are 1,423,584 in men and 401,712 in women.@*CONCLUSION@#Significant sex and age disparities in the trends of stroke mortality among young and middle-aged adults were identified in China. Targeted health policy measures are needed to address the burden of stroke in the young generation, especially for rural men, with a focus on the prevention and management of high risk factors.

Objective To put forward suggestions for improving the scheme of general practice for functional communities from the perspective of supply and demand,guide the efficient use of the resources of general practice by the communities,and incorporate the general practice of communities into hierarchical diagnosis and treatment management. Methods In July 2021,stratified random sampling was employed to conduct the questionnaire surveys of the young and middle-aged (demand side) and the general practitioners (supply side),respectively.SPSS 20.0 was used for data analysis. Results The two sides had the same cognition about the main reasons for not signing a contract with a family doctor,which were the lack of knowledge about general practitioners and the lack of face-to-face communication opportunities.They had the same response about the form of services,with high acceptance of medical services via WeChat,outpatient consultation,and the internet.There were differences in service content between the two sides.The top three demands of the young and middle-aged were appointment registration and referral in superior hospitals,medication guidance,and massage,acupuncture,and moxibustion.The top service self-rated by general practitioners was personalized guidance and report interpretation of physical examination,and the bottom was massage,acupuncture,and moxibustion. Conclusions The general practice varies between the demand and supply sides.General practitioners should be encouraged to enter and learn functional communities and provide personalized services,thus improving the general medical service in functional communities.

Objective To establish and validate the nomogram prediction model of degenerative lumbar disc disease in young and middle-aged people.Methods From January 2020 to March 2022,232 young and middle-aged people who were examined with MRI of lumbar intervertebral disc and standard standing position lumbar anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films in Suzhou Ninth Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University were selected as the study subjects.Collecting the factors that may affect the occurrence of degenerative lumbar disc disease in young and middle-aged people,the people were divided into degenerative disease group(n=78)and non-degenerative disease group(n=154)according to the presence or absence of degenerative lumbar disc disease.Influencing factors were compared between the two groups,the independent influencing factors screened out by multifactor logistic regression,the nomograph model was constructed by R software,and the model verified.Results Among 232 young and middle-aged people included in this study,78(33.6%)had degenerative lumbar disc diseases.The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the increase of BMI,sedentariness,the increase of IL-1β level were the risk factors of degenerative lumbar disc disease in young and middle-aged people;the increase of pelvic incidence angle and the increase of miRNA-142-3p level were protective factors for degenerative lumbar disc disease in young and middle-aged people(P<0.05).The nomogram model was constructed according to the results of multifactor analysis.ROC results showed that AUC was 0.889(95%CI 0.844-0.933,P<0.05),the average absolute error of internal validation was 0.017,the prediction curve was basically fitted with the standard curve,and the H-L goodness of fit test showed that the model was consistent(P>0.05).The decision curve shows that the clinical benefit rate is the highest when the model prediction probability threshold is 0.16-0.80.Conclusions Degenerative lumbar disc disease in young and middle-aged people is affected by such factors as BMI,sedentariness,and incidence angle of pelvis,and the nomogram model established based on this has high differentiation and accuracy of prediction.
RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the demands of contracted family doctor service among uncontracted young and middle-aged people in Shanghai Baoshan.Methods:An online questionnaire survey on demands of contracted family doctor service was conducted in June 2021 among 702 uncontracted residents aged 18-60 years from Shanghai Baoshan district selected by stratified random sampling method. The demands of contracted family doctor service, including digital health file, routine laboratory tests and imaging investigation;health promotion;service convenience; home service were surveyed, and the factors related the demands were analyzed with regression analysis.Results:The survey showed that the demands of service convenience (3.8(3.0, 5.0)) and home service (4.0(3.0, 5.0)) were higher, while those of digital health file (3.0(2.0, 5.0)) and health promotion (3.0(2.0, 5.0)) were relatively lower. There were significant differences in the demands of all five contracted services among residents with different gender, age, education level, household register and family income (all P<0.05); while for young residents with different types of medical insurance there was significant difference in demands of all contracted services except digital health file (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that female( OR=1.83, P<0.001), high educational level( OR=4.81, P=0.019), household registered in Shanghai( OR=1.80, P=0.004)had higher demand for service convenience; female gender( OR=1.68, P=0.001), high educational level( OR=4.56, P=0.023)had higher demand for home service demands. Conclusion:The demands for contracted family doctor services are different among the uncontracted young and middle-aged people in Baoshan district, while the service convenience is generally most demanded. The study indicates that the contracted family doctor service should be provided accordingly.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the mediating effect of self-regulation fatigue between acceptance of hearing impairment and work withdrawal behavior in young and middle-aged patients with sudden deafness, so as to provide reference for the formulation of intervention measures for job withdrawal behavior.Methods:A cross-sectional survey was conducted to facilitate the selection of 326 young and middle-aged patients with sudden deafness who were treated in the Department of Otolaryngology, Head and Neck Surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University of the Chinese PLA from February 2021 to January 2022. The survey was carried out by general information questionnaire, the Revised Acceptance Disability Scale, the Self-Regulatory Fatigue Scale, and the Work Withdrawal Behavior Scale. Structural equation model method was used to analyze the mediating effect.Results:The acceptance of hearing impairment score in young and middle-aged patients with sudden deafness was (59.82 ± 10.99) points, the self-regulation fatigue score was (60.38 ± 8.84) points, and the work withdrawal behavior score was (39.06 ± 6.51) points. Self-regulation fatigue was negatively correlated with acceptance of hearing impairment ( r=-0.541, P<0.01). Work withdrawal behavior was negatively correlated with acceptance of hearing impairment ( r=-0.488, P<0.01), and was positively correlated with self-regulation fatigue ( r=0.587, P<0.01). Self-regulation fatigue played a partial mediating effect between the acceptance of hearing impairment and work withdrawal in young and middle-aged patients with sudden deafness, and the mediating effect ratio was 56.30%. Conclusions:The acceptance of hearing impairment can not only directly affect the work withdrawal behavior of young and middle-aged patients with sudden deafness, but also indirectly affect their work withdrawal behavior through self-regulation fatigue. Medical staff should pay attention to the internal relationship between the acceptance of hearing impairment, self-regulation fatigue and work withdrawal behaviors, so as to improve the acceptance of hearing impairment of patients, relieve their self-regulation fatigue, and avoid the occurrence of work withdrawal behaviors.

Objective@#To investigate the self-care activities and their influencing factors among young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus ( T2DM ), so as to provide the basis for the care management of T2DM.@*Methods@#T2DM patients at ages of 18 to 59 years that were admitted to Department of Endocrinology, Hangzhou First People's Hospital Affiliated to Medical School of Zhejiang University were selected using the convenient sampling method from January to August 2021, and the demographic data were collected using questionnaires, including gender, age and educational levels. The self-care level was measured using the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities ( SDSCA ) was used to assess self-management behaviors, and the social support level was evaluated using the Social Support Rating Scale ( SSRS ), while the coping modes were assessed using the Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire ( MCMQ ). Factors affecting the self-care activities were identified among young and middle-aged patients with T2DM using multivariable linear regression analysis.@*Results@#The 342 respondents included 185 men ( 54.07% ) and 157 women (45.93% ), and had a mean age of ( 43.76±3.82 ) years. The total score of self-care activities was ( 94.22±18.74 ), and the overall scoring rate was 72.48%, including 63 cases with high scores ( 18.42% ), 208 cases with moderate scores ( 60.82% ) and 71 cases with low scores ( 20.76% ). Multivariable linear regression analysis identified gender ( women, β'=0.213 ), educational level ( high school/technical secondary school, β'=0.187; diploma and above, β'=0.411 ), household monthly income per capita (5 000 Yuan and higher, β'=0.390), course of disease ( >5 years, β'=0.340 ), history of receiving health education targeting diabetes ( β'=0.411 ), coping mode ( avoidance, β'=0.195; confronce, β'=0.367 ) and social support level ( general, β'=0.206; high, β'=0.383 ) as factors affecting self-care activities among young and middle-aged patients with T2DM.@*Conclusions@#The overall self-care activities at a moderate level among young and middle-aged patients with T2DM, which are associated with gender, educational level, economic income, course of disease, health education targeting diabetes, coping mode and social support level.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the status of post-traumatic growth and its afffecting factors in middle-aged and young patients with type 2 diabetes, in order to carry out clinical intervention for reference.Methods:A general data questionnaire, Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, Perceived Social Support Scale, and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale were used to survey 222 middle-aged and young patients with type 2 diabetes hospitalized from December 2020 to March 2021 in Shandong First Medical University Affiliated Center Hospital, Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital, Liaocheng People′s Hospital.Results:The total score of Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, Perceived Social Support Scale, and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale was (45.20 ± 12.90), (42.73 ± 10.16),(51.41 ± 10.60) points in middle-aged and young patients with type 2 diabetes. Regression showed that treatment mode, medical payment mode, social support, and psychological resilience were the main influencing factors of post-traumatic growth levels in middle-aged and young patients with type 2 diabetes ( P<0.05), which could explain 42.3% of the variation. Conclusions:Middle-aged and young patients with type 2 diabetes have grown at low level. Medical staff should concentrate on the positive psychology of patients and improve their level of social support and resilience to promote the production of post-traumatic growth.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the impact of lifestyle index (LSI) on serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men.Methods:This was a cross sectional study. A total of 8 067 subjects underwent check-up in Taihu Sanatorium of Jiangsu Province from March 2020 to June 2021 were enrolled, average age were(46.46±8.81) years. According to age, subjects were divided into young male group (18-44 years old, n=3 269) and middle-aged male group (45-60 years old, n=4 798). Height, weight, body mass index, alcohol drinking, smoking, diet, exercise, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C), serum uric acid and other data in all cases were measured and recorded. Results:The serum uric acid level in allsubjects was (376.80±74.43)μmol/L and the prevalence of hyperuricemia was 25.7%.The serum uric acid level in the young male group was higher than that in the middle-aged male group [(381.86±74.32)μmol/L vs (373.34±74.32)μmol/L, P<0.001]. The prevalence of hyperuricemia in the young male group was higher than that in the middle-aged male group (27.4% vs 24.5%), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). With the improvement of LSI scores, the serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men showed a decreasing trend ( P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL-C, LDL-C, hypertension, and diabetes, LSI was an independent factor for serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men. The risk of hyperuricemia in young and middle-aged male decreased ( OR 0.83 and 0.84, respectively, P<0.01) for every 1-point increase in LSI. Exercise and body mass index were independently associated with hyperuricemia in the young male group ( OR 0.83 and 0.54, respectively, P<0.05). Exercise, body mass index, and alcohol drinking were independently associated with hyperuricemia in the middle-aged male group ( OR 0.85, 0.51 and 0.65, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusion:LSI is an independent factor associated with hyperuricemia in young and middle-aged men and a healthy lifestyle has a protective effect on serum uric acid levels in young and middle-aged men.
