Abstract
Objective
To explore the mediated role of patient compliance between illness perception and quality of life in geriatric Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
Methods
It was a cross-sectional study and included 302 geriatric patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The mediated effect model was employed to investigate the link between illness perception, patient compliance, and quality of life.
Results
A strong positive link between illness perception and quality of life (r = 0.784, P < 0.001), but a significantly negative correlation with patient compliance (r = -0.618, P < 0.001). There was a substantial negative association found between patient compliance and quality of life (r = -0.678, P < 0.001). Patient compliance mediated the influence of illness perception on quality of life, accounting for 22.62% of the overall effect.
Conclusion
Improving patient compliance in geriatric patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus should become a priority target.
目的探讨患者依从性在老年2型糖尿病患者疾病感知与生活质量之间的中介作用。方法采用横断面研究，纳入302例老年2型糖尿病患者。采用中介效应模型探讨疾病感知、患者依从性与生活质量之间的关系。结果疾病感知与生活质量呈显著正相关(r = 0.784, P <；0.001)，但与患者依从性呈显著负相关(r = -0.618, P <；0.001)。患者依从性与生活质量呈显著负相关(r = -0.678, P <；0.001)。患者依从性介导疾病感知对生活质量的影响，占总效应的22.62%。结论提高老年2型糖尿病患者的依从性应成为治疗的优先目标。
