Abstract Background To date, coping strategies have not been studied in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), despite evidence of their relevance in chronic liver pathology, Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity (OB). We therefore analyzed which coping strategies predicted quality of life in diabetic and obese NAFLD patients. Methods Four hundred and ninety-two biopsy-proven NAFLD patients (290 men and 202 women, mean age 54.90±11.74) were evaluated using The Brief COPE, 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-12) and Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire-Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (CLDQ-NAFLD). A stepwise multiple linear regression analysis was performed on four groups (G1, n = 335, absence of T2DM; G2, n = 157, presence of T2DM; G3, n = 249, absence of OB; and G4, n = 243, presence of OB) to analyze which coping strategies predicted patient quality of life (physical component summary SF-12, mental component summary SF-12, and total CLDQ-NAFLD). Results In both diabetic and obese patients, active coping (T2DM, p = 0.003, β = 0.26; OB, p = 0.000, β = 0.33) and denial (T2DM, p = 0.027, β=-0.19; OB, p = 0.004, β=-0.18) predicted the physical component summary. Denial (T2DM, p = 0.000, β=-0.30; OB, p = 0.001, β=-0.19), positive reframing (T2DM, p = 0.000, β = 0.28; OB, p = 0.000, β = 0.29), self-blame (T2DM, p = 0.000, β=-0.24; OB, p = 0.000, β=-0.26) and self-distraction (T2DM, p = 0.033, β=-0.13; OB, p = 0.023, β=-0.11) predicted the mental component summary. Denial (T2DM, p = 0.000, β=-0.34; OB, p = 0.000, β=-0.31), positive reframing (T2DM, p = 0.000, β = 0.30; OB, p = 0.005, β = 0.15) and self-blame (T2DM, p = 0.000, β=-0.26; OB, p = 0.000, β=-0.28) also predicted the total CLDQ-NAFLD in both groups. Conclusions Active coping and positive reframing predicted better quality of life, while denial, self-blame and self-distraction predicted worse quality of life in diabetic and obese NAFLD patients, suggesting the inclusion of coping strategies in future multidisciplinary NAFLD treatments. Key messages Importance of coping strategies for NAFLD patients: active coping and positive reframing predicted better quality of life, while denial, self-blame and self-distraction predicted worse quality. This study shows the need to design multidisciplinary strategies for managing NAFLD and improving patient quality of life, in which intervention in coping strategies should be a major element.

We examined the impacts of emotional intelligence and self-leadership on coping with stress, and assessing the mediating roles that positive affect and self-efficacy play in this process. Participants were 575 students at 2 Chinese universities, who completed measures of coping with stress, self-leadership, emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and positive affect. The structural equation model analysis results indicated that self-efficacy fully mediated the relationship between emotional intelligence and active coping, as we had predicted. Further, self-leadership had a direct effect on active coping. However, positive affect and self-efficacy did not mediate the relationship between self-leadership and coping with stress. Implications are discussed in terms of theoretical contributions and interventions for coping with stress.
