Method: This study uses quantitative methods with a cross-sectional study design approach. The data collection techniques used purposive sampling and had 82 diabetic ulcer sufferers as respondents in the study. Result: This study empirically proves that (p-value ≤ α=0.05), where there is effective management of the concept of self-health applied by diabetic ulcer patients in reducing the level of depression and sufferers can increase their confidence in better health factors. Conclusion: The effectiveness of self-care management is an important indicator in overcoming diabetic ulcer disease.

Objective: The objective of the study is to evaluate the presence of stress symptoms in patients with chronic, subjective tinnitus, and correlate its presence to annoyance associated with tinnitus. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study. One hundred and eighty patients with chronic, subjective tinnitus were included. Patients answered the Tinnitus Handicap Inventory (THI) to evaluate the impact of tinnitus in the quality of life and answered the Lipp's inventory symptoms of stress for adults (ISSL). The data obtained was organized using Excel® 2010, mean values, linear regression and p-value were calculated. Results: Of the 180 patients included in the study, 117 (65%) had stress symptoms, 52 of the 117 (44%) were in the resistance phase and 23 of the 117 (20%) in the exhaustion phase, the remaining was in the alert phase. There was a clear progressive increase in stress as THI raised, with more impact of tinnitus in quality of life.

Diabetes is a common chronic disease that is considered as one of the fastest-growing health problems in the world. Adherence to medications could be an important factor in reducing these complications and improving the quality of life. The purpose of this research was to assess the impact of treatment adherence on health-related quality of life in patients with type 2 diabetes. A multicenter cross-sectional study was carried out among 368 diabetes patients. General Medication Adherence Scale was used to assess the adherence level and EuroQol-5D to assess the quality of life. The results show that 19%, 21%, and 23% of patients had maintained low medication adherence due to patient’s intentional or unintentional behavior due to additional diseases or pills burden and due to financial constraints, respectively. Overall, 43% (n=162) participants had maintained high medication adherence, and 37% (n=138) had maintained low medication adherence to antidiabetic drugs. Nearly one-third (31%) of patients with high overall adherence had perfect health state in comparison with 4% among patients with low adherence. Further, the lower proportion (21%) of patients with high overall adherence had perfect health state in comparison with that among patients with low adherence (34%). In addition to the overall adherence, the association was statistically significant for the domains related to non-adherence due to the patient’s intentional or unintentional behavior (p-value 0.001) and non-adherence due to additional diseases or pills burden (p-value 0.001) after taking into account of socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. In conclusion, the findings suggest that the policymakers should establish an intervention to improve adherence to diabetic treatment, and thus improve the quality of life for the type 2 diabetic patients.

Background: Asthma is a common cause of morbidity and mortality with prevalence of 300 million in world. The QOL of asthmatic patients cannot be determined only on the basis the severity of the disease, but requires a measurement of personal perception. This study was conducted with the aim to assess and compare the QOL using PedsQl scale in asthma patients between 5 to 18 years of age with different demographic and clinical variables.Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study conducted at respiratory clinic in tertiary hospital, Rewa from October 2017 to June 2019. A total number of 150 asthmatic patients and their parents participated. Asthmatic patients (N=150) and their parents, presenting to asthma clinic of Gandhi Memorial Hospital, Rewa (after applying inclusion-exclusion criteria) were assessed for QOL using PedsQl scale 3.0. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS version 20. Test of significance by student T-test and one way ANOVA.Results: The QOL is severely hampered by asthma with mean of 59 in intermittent asthma, 51 in mild, 44.74 in moderate and 40 in severe persistent asthma, significant p value of <0.05. Younger age, level of asthma control and severity were significantly related to QOL with p value of <0.05. Sex, socioeconomic status, were insignificantly related.Conclusions: QOL is impaired as the grading of asthma increases. Impairment of Quality of life are mostly associated with low level of asthma control, poly-therapy and frequent night attacks.

Kidney transplantation is the famous and most important choice of treatment of renal replacement therapies (RRTs) because of its positive impact on morbidity, survival and cost. The health related quality of life is becoming important outcome. Quality of life is usually impaired in patients who have renal transplant because of renal transplant patients have anxiety, lack of social, physical and emotional support and diminished ability to take care of themselves. The basic purpose of renal transplantation is to achieve maximum quality of life with minimum side effects. Methods: A cross sectional study was conducted at Rukhsana Akhtar Bahria International Orchard Hospital Lahore after approval from institution board of university of Lahore. 36 patients were enrolled in study by using purposive sampling technique. After taking informed consent all Kidney transplant patients aged between 18 years to 60 years, visited the post-transplantation OPD and continuously in follow-up sessions were included in study. A validated and standard WHO questionnaire of “Kidney Disease and Quality of Life (KDQOL-36™)” was used for data collection. Data was entered and analyzed in SPSS version.21.Chi-square test was applied to find out significant association between qualitative variables. P -Value < 0.05will be considered as statistically significant. Results: Majority of patients were from 40-49 years 10(27.0%). Females were more as compared to men (20(55.6) vs 16(44.4%)). 10(27.8) patients can read and write and 8(22.2%) have done matriculation. More patients live in Urban area as compared to rural area(19(52.8%) vs 17(47.2%)).8(22.2%) patients have less than 1 year of post kidney transplantation time and 19(52.8%) have 1 to 3 years. All the seven domains of KDQOL show poor QOL. General Health, Physical function and physical and emotional function shows average QOL and Emotional, social, daily activities and overall KDQOL shows poor QOL. There was insignificant association with age, gender, education; residential area and Post kidney transplantation length of time (years)(p-value > 0.05). Conclusions: After renal transplantation HRQOL becomes very important factor. After kidney transplantation HRQOL depends on many factors. It was concluded from current study that the HRQOL was not as good as it should be. Over the period of transplantation time patient’s quality of life remain same. The society, government, family, and medical staff need to support patients so they can also improve their QOL. Key word: Renal Diseases, Kidney transplant, Quality of life, KDQOL-36
