Participants completed the general information questionnaire, Bem Sex Role Inventory, Professional Identity Questionnaire of Nursing Students and Surface Acting Scale. K-means cluster analysis was performed, followed by random forest algorithm and SHapley Additive exPlanations based on Python program.
Results A total of 1241 nursing students from vocational college were investigated and were clustered into 4 groups. The five dimensions of professional identity had higher feature importance in all four groups, with professional self-image having the highest feature importance in Cluster 3. Professional self-image and understanding retention benefits and turnover risks were negative predictors of surface acting in all four groups. Social comparison and self-reflection, independence of career choice and social modeling regarding nursing profession were positively correlated with surface acting in specific groups. In Cluster 1, there exists a positive correlation between professional self-image and the constructs of social comparison and self-reflection; as well as a negative correlation between maternal education and understanding of retention benefits and turnover risks.

摘要:
China is experiencing an increasingly serious aging population. Cognitive function is an important factor and guarantee for the quality of life of older people. Therefore, to achieve healthy aging, this study aimed to examine the sequential multiple mediating effects of indoor ventilation frequency and cognitive function on anxiety and self-rated health in the Chinese older people population. Using the 2018 China Longitudinal Health and Longevity Survey (CLHLS) dataset, we finally selected 10,372 Chinese seniors over the age of 65. First, we describe the basic socio-demographic information of the sample population. Second, Spearman correlation analysis was used to determine whether there was a correlation between indoor ventilation frequency, anxiety, self-rated health, and cognitive function among Chinese older people. Finally, the SPSS macro process program was used to complete the sequence multiple mediation analysis. Indoor ventilation frequency, anxiety, self-rated health and cognitive function were significantly correlated (p < 0.01). Indoor ventilation frequency not only has a direct positive impact on the cognitive function of older people (effect = 0.1427; Standard error = 0.0201; 95%CI: LL = 0.1034, UL = 0.1821), but also indirectly affected cognitive function through three pathways: independent mediation of anxiety (effect = 0.0078; Standard error = 0.0021; 95%CI: LL = 0.0041, UL = 0.0121), independent mediating effect of self-rated health (effect = 0.0154; Standard error = 0.0030; 95%CI: LL = 0.0098, UL = 0.0215), and the chain mediating effect between anxiety and self-rated health (effect = 0.0046; Standard error = 0.0009; 95%CI: LL = 0.0029, UL = 0.0065). All projects are self-reported and some results may be biased. In the future, it may be more inspiring to explore more detailed and specific effects of indoor air quality on cognitive function in older people. Studies have shown that indoor ventilation frequency can improve cognitive function by reducing anxiety and improving self-rated health in older people Chinese. Encouraging older adults to increase the frequency of indoor ventilation will benefit their mental health and cognitive function. This study provides empirical evidence for the association between indoor ventilation frequency and cognitive function in older people Chinese adults. We used nationally representative data to investigate the relationship between indoor ventilation frequency and cognitive function and further explored the mediating role of anxiety and self-rated health in Chinese older adults. Indoor ventilation frequency can not only directly affect cognitive function in older people, but also indirectly affect cognitive function through anxiety and self-rated health. Anxiety and self-rated health have a series of mediating effects between indoor ventilation frequency and cognitive function.
摘要:
AIMS: Although anxiety and depression are frequently linked to coronary heart disease, a network analysis of comorbid anxiety and depression and their association with quality of life in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) remains unclear from the perspective of symptom interactions. We aimed to investigate the network structure and symptom patterns of anxiety and depression, and their relationship with quality of life in patients undergoing PCI. METHODS AND RESULTS: This study included 528 patients undergoing PCI. The seven-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire, and World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire-Brief Version were used as measurement tools. The R software was used to construct and interpret the network structure. The symptoms "sleep disturbance," "irritability," and "uncontrollable worry" showed the highest expected influence centrality. Three bridge symptoms were identified: "sleep disturbance," "excessive worry," and "trouble relaxing." Among the three strongest edges, two were associated with anxiety and depressive symptoms. Ten symptoms were directly associated with quality of life, with "fatigue" showing the strongest relationship. In the network comparison test, significant differences in global strength were observed between the male and female groups. CONCLUSION: "Sleep disturbance," plays a critical role in the current network, while "excessive worry," "trouble relaxing," and "fatigue" were identified as key priorities owing to their high correlation with "sleep disturbance" and quality of life. Focusing on these symptoms may help mitigate the risk of multiple-symptom interactions and provide tailored intervention measures for patients undergoing PCI.

摘要:
Objective Shared-care management (SCM) in palliative care is a collaborative model where shared care teams work in partnership with patients' original healthcare providers, employing multimodal strategies including consultations and coordinated referrals to enhance quality of care for patients. The evidence regarding its implementation remains fragmented and lacks detailed explanations, which impedes its application in clinical practice. This study aimed to develop a SCM standard of palliative care in adults in mainland regions of China.

摘要:
BACKGROUND: To investigate the association between indoor ventilation frequency and symptoms of depression and anxiety in older persons. METHODS: A binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the effects of indoor ventilation frequency on depression and anxiety by using data from the 2018 Chinese longitudinal healthy longevity survey (CLHLS). RESULTS: A total of 9,690 older persons with an average age of (83.20 ± 11.27) years were included, including 4,458 males (46.0%) and 5,232 females (54.0%). The average score of indoor ventilation frequency was (6.06 ± 1.98) points, including 770 people (7.9%) with low frequency, 3,066 people (31.6%) with medium frequency, and 5,854 people (60.4%) with high frequency. 842 (8.7%) had symptoms of depression and 204 (2.1%) had symptoms of anxiety. Compared with the older persons with low indoor ventilation frequency, the older persons with higher ventilation frequency had a lower incidence of depression (OR(95%CI) = 1.92 (1.50 ∼ 2.46), 1.51 (1.27 ∼ 1.79); P < 0.001). However indoor ventilation frequency was not associated with anxiety symptoms. CONCLUSION: Indoor ventilation frequency is related to depressive symptoms in older persons. Communities and families should pay more attention to indoor ventilation and intervene in time to promote and improve the mental health of older persons.

The primary outcome was the difference between pre- and post-intervention anxiety means. A network meta-analysis was conducted utilizing the “gemtc” package based on R4.3.0.
Results The analysis encompassed 24 randomized controlled trials, incorporating 2525 participants and evaluating 9 non-pharmacological interventions. All non-pharmacological interventions reduced anxiety in patients undergoing colonoscopy compared to standard care, with music intervention (SMD = -0.52, 95 %CI (−0.84,-0.20)), audiovisual distraction (SMD = -0.54, 95 %CI(−0.96,-0.12)), video information (SMD = -1.47, 95 %CI(−2.03,-0.90)), individual education (SMD = -1.72, 95 %CI(−2.76,-0.70)), and electroacupuncture (SMD = -1.12, 95 %CI(−2.10,-0.13)) having statistically significant effects. SUCRA ranking identified the priority of individual education (SUCRA: 92.5 %) and video information (SUCRA: 87.7 %). Meta-regression and sensitivity analysis further demonstrated the stability of the evidence. The certainty of the evidence was mostly rated as medium to low.

Participants completed the Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Self-Transcendence Scale, and Demoralization Scale. Data were analyzed using Mplus 8.3 and SPSS 25.0.
Results Three latent illness perception profiles were identified among patients with lung cancer: low (27.25%), moderate (40.04%), and high (32.71%). Mediation analyses revealed a partial mediation effect in the relation between illness perception and demoralization in the low versus moderate (SE = 1.56, 95% CI = 14.71, 20.86) and high versus low illness perception groups (SE = 1.71, 95% CI = 35.44, 42.71).

Conclusions Patients with lung cancer exhibited heterogeneous illness perceptions, and self-transcendence partially mediated the relation between illness perception and demoralization. Promoting self-transcendence may help mitigate the negative impact of illness perceptions on demoralization. Clinical interventions aimed at reducing negative illness perceptions and enhancing self-transcendence should be prioritized in the care of patients with lung cancer.

摘要:
Background Anxiety in patients undergoing colonoscopy may also result in adverse effects, including altered vital signs such as elevated heart rate and blood pressure, exacerbation of symptoms like bloating and gastrointestinal discomfort, a decline in cooperation and satisfaction, and even colonoscopy failure. However, limited studies have explored the level of anxiety, factors that influence it, and its specific causes. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted, recruiting 825 patients undergoing colonoscopy in Hunan Province between January and July 2023 using stratified sampling. The Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), a self-designed demographic characteristics questionnaire, and a colonoscopy patient anxiety influencing factor questionnaire were used. The data were analyzed in SPSS (version 26) using Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis, and multiple regression analysis tests. Results The final study included 825 participants, of whom 19.8% exhibited mild anxiety, 37.0% exhibited moderate anxiety, and 43.2% exhibited severe anxiety. The results indicated that insomnia (beta=-0.080, p = 0.013), no comorbidities (beta=-0.147, p < 0.001), not smoking or drinking (beta=-0.158, p < 0.001), and poor health (moderate: beta=-0.183, p < 0.001; poor: beta=-0.164, p < 0.001) were negatively associated with anxiety levels. In contrast, marital status (beta = 0.177, p < 0.001), education level (beta = 0.204, p < 0.001), age (beta = 0.114, p = 0.007), medical insurance (Basic Medical Insurance for Urban Residents beta = 0.204, p < 0.001; Commercial medical insurance: beta = 0.112, p < 0.001), care provided by relatives (beta = 0.102, p = 0.002), diarrhoea (beta = 0.089, p = 0.005), occupation (farmers: beta = 0.099, p = 0.009; self-employed: beta = 0.082, p = 0.014), and paternal upbringing (beta = 0.067, p = 0.034) were positively correlated with anxiety. Several factors had a greater impact on the anxiety level of the patients: education level (beta = 0.204), health status (moderate: beta=-0.183; not good: beta=-0.164), and marital status (beta = 0.177). It probably because higher education levels may increase awareness of potential risks associated with colonoscopy, contributing to greater anxiety. The five common reasons for anxiety included the presence of bloody faeces, enemas, need for further treatment, lack of timely feedback from the physician, lack of an accurate diagnosis. Conclusion The level of anxiety experienced by patients during the colonoscopy phase was more severe and should be alleviated with targeted interventions based on the cause of anxiety, such as pre-procedural counseling, patient education materials, and enhanced communication with healthcare providers.

摘要:
OBJECTIVE: To understand the relationship between the need for continuing care services and influencing factors, social support, readiness for discharge among discharged pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) patients. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 170 patients from a database of discharged patients with PTB from September 2023 to January 2024. A demographic and disease characteristics questionnaire, continuing care services basic modality questionnaire, continuing care services need questionnaire, the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), and the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale (RHDS) were used for this investigation. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the associated factors. RESULTS: The mean total score for the need for continuing care services among patients with PTB discharged from the hospital was (121.61±22.98). The dimension with the highest score was health education guidance need. Compared to the the original hospital medical personnel, the primary source of care information after discharge was the local medical institutions was statistically significant and negatively correlated with continuing care service need (P=0.005). Social support was positively associated with need for continuing care services (P=0.042). CONCLUSION: Discharged PTB patients had a high degree of continuing care service need. Factors influencing the need for continuing care services are the primary source of care information after discharge was the local medical institutions, the social support. Medical staff need to provide targeted continuing care services based on relevant influencing factors to meet the discharge needs of patients.

Nursing informatics competency;Palliative care;Nurses;Cross-sectional study
摘要:
<bold>Background: </bold>Nursing informatics (NI) competency is a required core competency for high-quality care in digitally enabled healthcare environments. Given the increasing reliance on digital health in palliative care settings, it becomes crucial to evaluate the NI competency of nurses to ensure the seamless integration and effective utilization of digital health in their clinical practice. This study aimed to investigate the level of NI competency and explore its associated factors among palliative care nurses in mainland China. <bold>Methods: </bold>A cross-sectional design was conducted for this study, involving a total of 409 palliative care nurses from 302 hospitals in mainland China. Anonymous data were collected through a self-designed sociodemographic questionnaire, the Nursing Informatics Competency Scale (NICS) and the Innovative Self-Efficacy Scale. <bold>Results: </bold>The total score of the NICS was 129.19 +/- 22.02, which indicated that Chinese palliative care nurses had a moderate level of NI competency. There was a positive correlation between innovative self-efficacy and NI competency (r = 0.602, P < 0.01). The hospital level and innovative self-efficacy were identified as statistically significant factors influencing nurses' NI competency based on multiple linear regression analysis results. These associated factors could explain 35.1% of the difference in NI competency. <bold>Conclusions: </bold>This study found that palliative care nurses in mainland China exhibited moderate levels of NI competency and identified the hospital level and innovative self-efficacy as associated factors of nurses' NI competency. Measures such as developing supported strategies, including targeted NI training programs by nursing education managers of primary-level hospitals and creating a positive culture of innovation by healthcare institutions can be considered to improve the level of NI competency among Chinese palliative care nurses.
摘要:
BACKGROUND: Depressive symptoms in older adults have been a major public health problem. Although many studies have suggested a potential relationship between Internet use and depressive symptoms, the underlying mechanisms of this relationship among older adults remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the multiple mediating effects of physical exercise and self-rated health on the relationship between Internet use and depressive symptoms in older adults. METHODS: Utilizing the 2020 data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS), we assessed the depressive status among the older population through the application of the Ambulatory Self-Rating Depression Scale. To validate the associations, we conducted a Pearson correlation analysis. Furthermore, we constructed a mediating effect model, which aimed to delve into the intricate pathways mediating the influence of Internet usage on depressive symptoms in the older adults. Additionally, we employed a latent class analysis to uncover the intricate heterogeneity of depression among older individuals who do not utilize the Internet, offering insights into the diverse manifestations of this condition. RESULTS: After controlling for age, sex, marital status, chronic disease, and education level, regression results showed that the use of the Internet had a significant direct effect on depressive symptoms in the older adults (β = -0.684, t = -4.318, p < 0.001). Physical exercise and self-rated health significantly affected depressive symptoms in the older adults (β = -0.176, t = -7.939, p < 0.001; β = -0.937, t = -18.681, p < 0.001). Mediating results showed that the mediating effect of physical exercise between Internet use and depressive symptoms in the older adults was -0.220 (95%CI: -0.2877--0.1598), and the mediating effect of self-rated health between Internet use and depressive symptoms in the older adults was -0.084 (95%CI: -0.1716--0.0008), and the chain mediation effect was -0.022 (95%CI: -0.0371--0.0076). The potential profile analysis of depressive symptoms in the older adults without using the Internet showed that they could be divided into three groups, namely, high loneliness-high depression group (7.4%), medium loneliness-moderate depression group (14.7%), and low loneliness-low depression group (77.9%). CONCLUSION: Internet use can directly affect the depressive symptoms of the older adults, and can also indirectly affect the depressive symptoms of the older adults through physical exercise and self-rated health. The depressive symptoms of the older adults who do not use the Internet are heterogeneous and can be divided into three categories. With the popularization of the Internet, the use of the Internet should be promoted for the older adults, and the frequency of physical exercise should be enhanced to achieve physical and mental health.

摘要:
BACKGROUND: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common cancer worldwide and the third leading cause of cancer mortality. HCC has high morbidity, high mortality, and low survival rates. Screening is one of the most significant methods of lowering incidence and death while also increasing survival. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify the facilitators and barriers to participation in HCC screening among high-risk populations. METHODS: A comprehensive and systematic search was undertaken in PubMed, Web of Science, MEDLINE, EMBACE, EBSCOhost and the Cochrane Library. A combination of synonyms of the keywords including HCC, screening, factors and adherence were used for searching. Studies addressing the facilitators and barriers to HCC screening compliance in at-risk individuals were included. Data were synthesized using Review Manager version 5.4. A random/fixed effects model meta-analysis was performed to estimate the pooled data and expressed with odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS: A total of seven articles met the inclusion criteria. Qualitative (n=1) and quantitative (n=6) studies using various types of surgery were conducted. The most commonly mentioned barriers were insufficient knowledge and awareness of HCC screening, unawareness of the necessity for early detection of HCC and lack of physician recommendation. A meta-analysis of seven studies showed that individuals with a family history of HCC increased screening uptake by nearly three times (OR: 2.69, 95% CI: 1.93, 3.75). Other most frequently reported facilitators include age, education level, and perceived risk etal. CONCLUSIONS: Many barriers to HCC screening were found. Meanwhile, this review points out that improving the awareness of high-risk populations toward HCC screening is expected to enhance compliance, thereby promoting early diagnosis of liver cancer, reducing mortality, and alleviating the burden of HCC.

Telemedicine;End of life;Family caregiver;Qualitative study
摘要:
Despite being driven by a strong sense of duty and familial obligation, providing care for patients nearing the end of life poses challenges for family caregivers. Telemedicine has rapidly gained traction as a transformative approach to healthcare delivery, offering an array of benefits that could be particularly valuable in end-of-life care. However, research on the perspectives of telemedicine-based services among family caregivers of patients with end-of-life cancer is limited. Therefore, this study aims to explore the perspectives and preferences of telemedicine-based services among family caregivers of patients with end-of-life cancer and provide a framework for developing and executing a tailored telemedicine-based end-of-life care program that addresses the unique needs of family caregivers in mainland China. A descriptive phenomenological approach was used. Family caregivers were selected using purposive sampling at a tertiary cancer hospital. One-on-one semi-structured interviews were conducted with the participants from November to December 2022. Colaizz’s method was used to analyze the interviews. Fourteen participants participated in interviews. Three themes and ten subthemes were identified: motivation to receive telemedicine services (relief from the burden of home care; access to professional health care services), supportive care needs for telemedicine services (support for symptom management; negative emotional adjustment; death education; daily life care guidance), and functional expectations of telemedicine service platforms (ease of use; real-time online guidance and response; personalized automatic reminder; targeted matching push of health knowledge). Family caregivers expressed interest in telemedicine-based services and identified various care needs before receiving telemedicine services. The findings of this study can help policymakers and healthcare providers develop more effective and culturally appropriate telemedicine-based service programs that can better support family caregivers of end-of-life cancer patients.
摘要:
AIM: To synthesize available evidence about core competencies for nurses engaged in palliative care. DESIGN: A scoping review conducted according to the framework from Joanna Briggs Institute. METHODS: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews checklist was adopted to report this scoping review. The PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, ScienceDriect, CNKI, WangFang, VIP and Sinomed databases were used to systematically search for published studies from their inception to December 2023. Two researchers independently screened and selected relevant studies and performed the data charting. RESULTS: Twenty-six studies were included in this scoping review. Among these, 14 studies identified core competency assessment instruments among nurses engaged in palliative care, with the Palliative Care Core Competence Questionnaire was used most frequently; 13 studies investigated the status of core competencies of nurses engaged in palliative care, the majority of included studies indicated that nurse's core competencies were at moderate levels; 11 studies explored the factors influencing the core competencies of the nurses engaged in palliative care, which were classified as sociodemographic-related factors, palliative care education-related factors, death attitude, palliative care practice-related experience and others. CONCLUSION: This scoping review offers a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of core competencies among nurses in palliative care. Findings suggested that the clinical nursing leaders need to develop tailored strategies and interventions to address specific factors and promote the continuous development of nurses' competencies in palliative care. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Core competency assessment instruments equip nurses and healthcare organizations with a range of validated tools for evaluating their proficiency in palliative care. Targeted core competency enhancement programmes need to be developed to foster a nursing workforce better equipped to improve the quality of life of end-of-life patients and their families.

摘要:
BACKGROUND: Nurses' nursing competence and nutritional care literacy directly affect patients' health and safety. Self-directed learning ability was pervasive throughout the entire work process of nursing work and was the basis for improving both. However, there are few studies has explored the mechanism from the perspective of nutritional care literacy. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between self-directed learning ability and nursing competence, and to explore the mediating role of nutritional care literacy between self-directed learning and nursing competence among clinical nurses in China. METHODS: A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 805 clinical nurses recruited from seven general hospitals in Hunan Province, China, between January 25 and March 6, 2022. The self-directed learning ability, nutritional care literacy and nursing competence of nurses were evaluated through investigation. A total of 799 questionnaires were received, resulting in an response rate of 99.25%.We performed an intermediary modeling to examine the mediating roles of nutritional care literacy on the relationship between self-directed learning ability and nursing competence in clinical nurses. RESULTS: Self-directed learning ability was positively correlated with nutritional care literacy (r=0.792, P<0.001) and nursing competence (r=0.696, P<0.001). Nutritional care literacy was positively correlated with nursing competence (r=0.658, P<0.001). Nutritional care literacy mediated the relationship between self-directed learning ability and nursing competence. The mediating effect accounted for 32.48% of the total effect and 48.10% of the direct effect . CONCLUSIONS: This study confirmed the positive correlation between self-directed learning ability, nutritional care literacy, and nursing competence. Nutritional care literacy played a mediating role in the relationship between self-directed learning ability and nursing competence. The findings not only provide a novel strategy for cultivating nursing professionals and improving nurse disease care abilities, but also offer a new perspective for nursing educators and managers.

AIMS: To explore risk factors for Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) in secondary prevention for patients with the disease in China. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. METHODS: A two-stage sampling method was used (stratified sampling and systematic sampling). Patients who met WHO diagnostic criteria for CHD, had the capacity to give informed consent and volunteered to participate were recruited from five districts in Hengyang city, Hunan province, China. Six instruments were used: A general socio-demographic questionnaire, Coronary Heart Disease Self-Management Scale, International Physical Activity Questionnaires, Chinese Eight-Item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale, Zung's Self-Rating Anxiety Scale and Sexual Health Questionnaires. Participants completed the questionnaires in person or via telephone. Single-factor correlation analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were carried out. RESULTS: A total of 373 patients were recruited with a mean age of 66.25 years (standard deviation = 9.98). The mean score was 57.00 (14.23) for self-management, 5.41 (1.82) for medication adherence, 53.61 (9.26) for anxiety, 8.66 (3.18) for sexual knowledge and 22.20 (9.68) for the need for sexual health education. The median was 1563.90 MET-min/day for total energy consumption of physical activity. Self-management, physical activity, medication adherence, anxiety and sexual health were significantly correlated with a range of demographic variables (age, gender, marital status, occupation, education levels, types of medical insurance, personal monthly income, living arrangements) and illness-related variables (illness duration, number of hospital admissions, type of therapy, number of other chronic diseases, cardiac function grading and BMI). CONCLUSION: This research has showed the risk factors related to self-management skills, medication adherence, anxiety, physical activity, sexual knowledge and the need for sexual health education in secondary prevention for patients with CHD. Health professionals play an important role in helping patients reduce risk factors for CHD to minimise its reoccurrence and mortality. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Both hospital-based and community-based health professionals, especially nurses, have an important role to play in developing and implementing health promotion interventions to help patients with CHD reduce risk factors for the disease and thus reduce mortality. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: No patient contribution. Community nursing staff contributed to the design of the general socio-demographic questionnaire for this study. REPORTING METHOD: The STROBE checklist was used to ensure comprehensive reporting (Appendix S1).
摘要:
BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis destroyed lung constitutes a significant worldwide public health challenge, little is known about its associated risk factors and prognosis. Our study aimed to identify the risk factors of tuberculosis destroyed lung among pulmonary tuberculosis and structural lung diseases. METHODS: Between January 2019 and December 2021, a case-control study was conducted at the Third People's Hospital of Shenzhen in China. We collected the clinical data among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and structural lung diseases. Cases were defined as patients with tuberculosis destroyed lung. Controls were not diagnosed with the tuberculosis destroyed lung. A binary logistic regression was performed. RESULTS: In our study, a total of 341 patients met the inclusion criteria, including 182 cases and 159 controls. We found that age ranges of 46-60 years (aOR: 4.879; 95% CI: 2.338-10.180), >60 years (aOR: 3.384; 95% CI: 1.481-7.735); history of TB treatment (aOR: 2.729; 95% CI: 1.606-4.638); malnutrition (aOR: 5.126; 95% CI: 1.359-19.335); respiratory failure (aOR: 5.080; 95% CI: 1.491-17.306); and bronchiarctia (aOR: 3.499; 95% CI: 1.330-9.209) were the independent risk factors for tuberculosis destroyed lung. Conversely, having a normal (aOR: 0.207; 95% CI: 0.116-0.371) or overweight BMI (aOR: 0.259; 95% CI: 0.090-0.747) emerged as a protective factor against tuberculosis destroyed lung. CONCLUSION: This study indicated that tuberculosis destroyed lung is a common condition among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and structural lung diseases. The independent risk factors for tuberculosis destroyed lung were identified as being within the age groups of 46-60 and over 60 years, having a previous history of TB treatment, malnutrition, respiratory failure, and bronchiarctia. It is essential to closely monitor patients possessing these risk factors to prevent the progression towards tuberculosis destroyed lung.
