The Influencing Factors of Family Function, Social Support and Impact on Quality of Life in Patients with Gastrointestinal Cancer.
Background: Reduced quality of life is a common problem faced by gastrointestinal cancer patients, but the problems of family dysfunction and social support that they also need to face are scarcely explored. Moreover, the influencing factors of family function, social support and impact on quality of life in patients with gastrointestinal cancer has yet to be explored.
Objective: To explore the influencing factors of family function, social support and impact on quality of life in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
Methods: This study was a cross-sectional study with a simple random sampling. A total of 399 gastrointestinal cancer patients from one tertiary hospital were recruited to participate in this study. The quality of life questionnaire-core 30 (QLQ-30), family caring scale(APGAR) and social support rating scale(SSRS)were used to assess patients' quality of life, family function and social support. We performed descriptive analysis and logistic regression analysis to probe the influencing factors of family function, social support and impact on quality of life in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
Results: About half of the participants(46.12%) had a low social support score, age, income level and stage of cancer were the influencing factors for the occurrence of social support disorder(P<0.05). More than halfof the participants(51.38%) had family dysfunction, age, marital status and stage of cancer were the influencing factors for family dysfunction(P<0.05). Participants with insufficient social support and family dysfunction had lower quality of life scores(P<0.05). Family function and objective support were the factors affecting the quality of life of gastrointestinal cancer patients(P<0.05).
Conclusions: Family function and social support can affect the quality of life of patients with gastrointestinal cancer. The effects of family function and social support should be considered comprehensively to improve the quality of life of patients with gastrointestinal cancer.
期刊介绍:
Cancer is a very complex disease. While many aspects of carcinoge-nesis and oncogenesis are known, cancer control and prevention at the community level is however still in its infancy. Much more work needs to be done and many more steps need to be taken before effective strategies are developed. The multidisciplinary approaches and efforts to understand and control cancer in an effective and efficient manner, require highly trained scientists in all branches of the cancer sciences, from cellular and molecular aspects to patient care and palliation.
The Asia Pacific Organization for Cancer Prevention (APOCP) and its official publication, the Asia Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention (APJCP), have served the community of cancer scientists very well and intends to continue to serve in this capacity to the best of its abilities. One of the objectives of the APOCP is to provide all relevant and current scientific information on the whole spectrum of cancer sciences. They aim to do this by providing a forum for communication and propagation of original and innovative research findings that have relevance to understanding the etiology, progression, treatment, and survival of patients, through their journal. The APJCP with its distinguished, diverse, and Asia-wide team of editors, reviewers, and readers, ensure the highest standards of research communication within the cancer sciences community across Asia as well as globally.
The APJCP publishes original research results under the following categories:
-Epidemiology, detection and screening.
-Cellular research and bio-markers.
-Identification of bio-targets and agents with novel mechanisms of action.
-Optimal clinical use of existing anti-cancer agents, including combination therapies.
-Radiation and surgery.
-Palliative care.
-Patient adherence, quality of life, satisfaction.
-Health economic evaluations.
