The aim of the study was to explore the psychological characteristics and quality of life of patients with cancerous tumor combined with cardiovascular disease. 81 middle-aged patient (51,4±4,6 years) with cancer of different localization examined. Additionally, 42 patients had a concomitant cardiovas- cular pathology. Group of comparison consisted of 39 patients. The following tests and scales were used: test TOBOL for studying the issues of patients’ reaction to desease, Spielberger-Khanin scale to monitor level of anxiety, SF-36 questionnaire to analyze the quality of life. unlike the patients without cardiac pathology, the cancer patients with concomitant cardiovascular pathology showed higher anxi- ety and lower quality of life assessment

BACKGROUND: Hypertension is one of the most common diseases around the world, which is the most risk factor related to cardiovascular disease. The quality of life of hypertensive patients is influenced by various factors, namely age, sex, educational background, ethnicity and nutritional status. Another factor that is also important is the quality of sleep.AIM: We aimed the assessment of sleep quality using a PSQI questionnaire, and quality of life assessment with the SF-36 questionnaire.METHODS: This study was a cross-sectional study of 45 respondents at the H. Adam Malik Central General Hospital in Medan in 2018. Assessment of sleep quality was performed through the PSQI questionnaire (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), and quality of life assessment was carried out with the SF-36 questionnaire.RESULTS: The prevalence of impaired sleep quality in hypertensive patients was 35.6%. Most patients have a good quality of life, with 71.1%. In this study, sleep quality was found to be related to the quality of life (p = 0.037). Furthermore, variables related to sleep quality were sex (gender) (p = 0.003) and education (p = 0.005). In multivariate analysis, the quality of life is predominantly influenced by sleep quality (p = 0.025).CONCLUSION: The quality of life of hypertensive patients is influenced by the quality of sleep.

The article analyzes the quality of life of 28 patients with bullous pulmonary emphysema, operated on from the dual-port approach at the State Novosibirsk Regional Clinical Hospital over the period from 2017 to 2020. The assessment was performed using the SF-36 nonspecific questionnaire and the San Diego University Shortness of Breath Questionnaire (UCSD-SOBQ). The study revealed a significant improvement in the quality of life of patients operated on from a redual-port approach.

Objective: The objective of this study is to perform a functional and quality of life assessment of patients subjected to debridement of ulcers in the posterior region of the ankle, which progressed to complete Achilles tendon resection without any type of tendon reconstruction or transfer. Methods: This is a case series of 4 patients, mostly diabetic, who underwent complete resection of an exposed and degenerated Achilles tendon due to ulcer in the posterior region of the ankle that precluded preservation given the need to control the infectious process considering the diagnosis of calcaneal osteomyelitis. This diagnosis was compatible with changes observed in the magnetic resonance imaging evaluation and was confirmed in cultures of bone tissue removed during debridement. The patients filled out the Brazilian Portuguese version of the Achilles Tendon Total Rupture Score (ATRS-BR) and 36-Item Short Form Survey (SF-36) during the postoperative period, and follow-up ranged from 6 to 24 months. The ATRS score ranges from 0 to 100, and the higher the scores are, the fewer symptoms and limitations the patients have. The SF-36 consists of 36 questions covering 8 domains: physical role functioning, physical functioning, bodily pain, general health perceptions, social role functioning, vitality, mental health and emotional role functioning. The items are independently assessed, and the total possible score is 100 points, which is indicative of the best health status. Results: All 4 Achilles tendons were approached. The mean age of the patients was 69.8 years. The mean score on the physical functioning section of the SF-36 was 63.8 points. When comparing the outcome with literature data, we observed that when patients with ulcers were compared with individuals of a similar age group, our study showed better results than previous studies. The mean score of the ATRS-BR was 46.3 points, which suggests a poor outcome. However, the patients had few complaints about their physical functioning, as shown in the SF-36 analysis. The decision not to perform Achilles tendon reconstruction was made jointly by the medical team and the patients and their families. Conclusion: Not reconstructing the Achilles tendon in patients, mostly elderly diabetic patients with posterior ankle ulcers, led to encouraging functional scores. The present study suggests that this type of ulcer treatment is a viable option for such populations.
