  • Construction of financial toxicity early warning model for breast cancer patients undergoing daytime chemotherapy under diagnosis intervention packet

    ObjectiveTo explore the current situation of financial toxicity (FT) of breast cancer patients undergoing daytime chemotherapy under the background of diagnosis intervention packet (DIP) and its influencing factors, and to build a risk early warning model.Methods Convenient sampling method was used to select breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy in the daytime ward of Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute & Hospital between April and May 2022. The general data questionnaire and FT comprehensive score scale were used to investigate them, and the influencing factors of patients’ FT were discussed through single factor analysis and logistic regression analysis, and the risk early warning model was established. Hosmer-Lemeshow fitting effect test was used to evaluate the prediction effect of the model.Results A total of 278 patients were included. The median (lower quartile, upper quartile) of FT score was 14.00 (8.75, 23.00), of which 195 patients (70.14%) had FT score≤22; 83 patients (29.86%) had FT scores>22. Logistic regression analysis showed that age, per capita monthly income of families, commercial health insurance, chemotherapy cycle, tumor stage, neoadjuvant chemotherapy were the influencing factors for high-risk FT of breast cancer patients undergoing daytime chemotherapy. The results of Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test showed that the model-predicted FT of breast cancer patients undergoing daytime chemotherapy was in good agreement with the actual observation value (χ2=10.685, P=0.220). The area under the curve of the model was 0.931 [95% confidence interval (0.900, 0.962)], the sensitivity was 0.807, and the specificity was 0.913.Conclusions The FT of breast cancer patients undergoing daytime chemotherapy is at a high level. Older age, purchase of commercial health insurance, and high per capita monthly income of families are protective factors for high-risk FT. The wind with chemotherapy cycle≤4 weeks, tumor stage Ⅱ, neoadjuvant chemotherapy are high-risk FT risk factors. The final warning model has been tested to have a good prediction effect, which can provide a reference for clinical medical staff to identify high-risk FT patients early and make preventive strategies as soon as possible.

  • Research progress on financial toxicity in patients with heart failure

    Heart failure is a progressive disease with high readmission rate and long treatment duration, which impose a heavy financial burden on patients and their families. The resulting financial toxicity can also affect the health outcomes of patients. This article provides an in-depth analysis of the concept, evaluation tools, research status, hazards, influencing factors, and coping strategies of financial toxicity in patients with heart failure. Suggestions are put forward for the development of evaluation tools and the improvement of coping strategies for financial toxicity, aiming to provide a reference for the development of more scientific and effective systematic intervention strategies.
