“…The mean utility index in our study was higher than that in stroke patients in Korea [7]. The reason may be the different crosswalk value sets used as well as cultural and social distinctions [8,32].…”

Background Stroke is a major health threat and the leading cause of mortality and disability in China. The aims of this study were to identify the possible influencing factors of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and its domain-specific contents in stroke patients in rural areas in China. Methods A total of 1709 stroke patients aged from 36 to 79 years from the Henan Rural Cohort Study (n=39259) were included in this study. The Chinese version of the European Quality of Life Five Dimension Five Level Scale (EQ-5D-5L) and visual analogue scale (VAS) were used to evaluate HRQoL in stroke patients. Tobit regression models, generalized linear models and binary logistic regressions models were constructed to determine the potential influencing factors of the EQ-5D utility index, as well as influencing factors of each domains and VAS score.Results The mean utility index and VAS scores of stroke patients were 0.885 (SD, 0.204), and 68.39 (SD, 17.31), respectively. Pain/discomfort (PD, 35.2%) and mobility (MO, 30.4%) were the most frequently reported issues. Regression models revealed that stroke patients who were illiterate; had a low monthly income; reported low physical activity intensity; and had diabetes, anxiety, depression or poor sleep quality had lower utility index and VAS scores. For the different dimensions of the EQ-5D, the influencing factors varied. Conclusion Stroke patients in rural areas had a lower HRQoL than those in urban areas. Factors associated with the EQ-5D utility index as well as each domain and VAS score, need attention. Stroke patients in rural areas need to be managed systematically.

“…Our ndings showed that PD was the most frequently reported issue. Pain after stroke is a common clinical problem that not only increases depression and cognitive issues but also impairs quality of life [8,32]. Moreover, pain after stroke is usually underdiagnosed and undertreated [33].…”

“…However, the EQ-5D index and EQ-VAS scores were higher than those CHD patients from Slovenia (0.60 and 58.6, respectively). The reason may be the different cross-walk value sets used 32 . www.nature.com/scientificreports/ Our findings showed that 55.6% of CHD patients reported being in full health, which was higher than of the proportion of Australian adults reporting the same (42.8%) 33 .…”

The aims were to identify the possible influencing factors of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and its domain-specific scores in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). A total of 1247 patients with CHD from the Henan Rural Cohort Study (n = 39,259) were included in this study. The Chinese version of the European Quality of Life Five Dimension Five level scale (EQ-5D-5L) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) were used to evaluate HRQoL in patients with CHD. Tobit regression, generalized linear models and binary logistic regression were applied to determine the potential factors influencing the EQ-5D utility, as well as each domain, and the VAS. CHD patients had lower per capita monthly actual income, and higher rates of diabetes mellitus, stroke, anxiety and poor sleep quality, which significantly decreased EQ-5D index and VAS scores. In addition, sex, older age, education, not having a spouse, ever drinking alcohol, a high-fat diet, physical activity, hypertension and depression affected the various domain-specific EQ-5D scores in CHD patients. CHD patients in rural areas have a lower HRQoL. Factors associated with the EQ-5D index, including each domain, and the VAS need attention. CHD patients in rural areas need to be managed systematically.

Background Pregnant women experience physical, physiological, and mental changes. Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is a relevant indicator of psychological and physical behaviours, changing over the course of pregnancy. This study aims to assess HRQoL of pregnant women during different stages of pregnancy. Methods This cross-sectional study was performed using the The EuroQoL Group’s five-dimension five-level questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) to assess the HRQoL of pregnant women, and demographic data were collected. This study was conducted in a regional university hospital in Guangzhou, China. Results A total of 908 pregnant women were included in this study. Pregnant women in the early 2nd trimester had the highest HRQoL. The HRQoL of pregnant women rose from the 1st trimester to the early 2nd trimester, and dropped to the bottom at the late 3rd trimester due to some physical and mental changes. Reports of pain/discomfort problem were the most common (46.0%) while self-care were the least concern. More than 10% of pregnant women in the 1st trimester had health-related problems in at least one dimension of whole five dimensions. In the whole sample, the EuroQoL Group’s visual analog scale (EQ-VAS) was 87.86 ± 9.16. Across the gestational stages, the HRQoL remained stable during the pregnancy but the highest value was observed in the 1st trimester (89.65 ± 10.13) while the lowest was in the late 3rd trimester (87.28 ± 9.13). Conclusions During pregnancy, HRQoL were associated with gestational trimesters in a certain degree. HRQoL was the highest in the early 2nd trimester and then decreased to the lowest in the late 3rd trimester due to a series of physical and psychological changes. Therefore, obstetric doctors and medical institutions should give more attention and care to pregnant women in the late 3rd trimester.
