Causal Mediation Analysis

Objective: Few studies have tested the purported causal mechanisms between social participation and health, especially among those in poor health. This study aimed to determine whether self-management of chronic disease operates as a pathway through which social participation affects health-related quality of life. Method: I utilized causal mediation analysis among 600 low-income older Singaporeans living with chronic conditions, to test whether self-management mediates the association between social participation and health-related quality of life. Results: Results show that self-management fully mediated the positive effect of informal social participation on health-related quality of life. Formal social participation was found to have a negative direct effect on health-related quality of life. Discussion: These findings reiterate the primacy of family and friends for older adults, but highlight that a better understanding of formal engagement with the low-income population is still needed.

ABSTRACTBackground: Self-management programs are very important in the care of patients with COPD as an independent intervention in an effort to improve health status. Aim: Of this systematic review is to find out the form of self-management intervention in COPD patients, an instrument to measure the outcomes of self-management and the effects of self-management programs in COPD patients. Methods: Used are electronic data bases from journals published through ProQuest, PubMed., And ScienceDirect. Results: Of a review of 9 selected journals stated that self-management programs had an influence on increasing lung capacity, exercise capacity and health-related quality of life compared to patients who experienced standard care. The research instrument was used to measure lung capacity using spirometry, Exercise capacity used a six-minute walking distance (6MWD), Incremental Shuttle Walk Test (ISWT) and the Endurance Shuttle Walk Test (ESWT), and health-related quality of life measured by St George Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ). The results showed that the effects of self-management programs benefited in the quality of care, reduced the number of days of hospital care and did not increase the number of deaths. Conclusion: Self-management programs in COPD patients provide the ability to manage disease so that it can increase lung capacity, exercise capacity and quality of life related to health. Keywords: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, exercise capasity, lung   capacity self management program, quality of life

Abstract Background: A low HRQOL can be a risk factor for future cardiovascular events in patients with hypertension. Therefore, HRQOL should receive attention and be improved in the treatment of hypertension. The purpose of this study was to investigate if the association between treatment groups and Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQOL) of hypertension mediated by self-management, and to determine which factors of hypertension self-management influenced HRQOL. Methods: Hypertensive patients were selected by multi-stage stratified samping from “1+1+N” Physicians intervention (PI) group and the conventional management (CM) group in 5 communities of Xiamen, China. Patients were cross-sectionally assessed by validated self-reports using self-management Behavior Rating Scale and Quality of Life Instruments for Hypertension. A structural equation modeling (SEM) and a path analytic model were used to assess if the association between treatment groups and HRQOL was mediated by self-management. Results: A total of 1207 patients were included, of whom 48.55% were in the PI group. The average score of the HRQOL scale was 86.68, and the average score of the PI group was higher than the CM group (87.35 vs 86.04, respectively). Similar findings were observed for the self-management scale, in which the average score of the PI group was higher than the CM group (76.32 vs 72.00, respectively). Patients in the PI group had higher levels of self-management compared to the CM group except for management of emotion. SEM showed that the association between treatment groups and HRQOL was significantly mediated by self-management (a*b, 95% confidence intervals CI: 0.02,0.07) and that the single mediator (self-management) model explained 76.67% of the intervention effect. In the multivariable mediation model, the association between treatment groups and HRQOL was significantly mediated by management of medication adherence, sport and diet.Conclusions: The findings presented good evidence supporting that treatment groups are linked to HRQOL of hypertension via self-management. Specifically, management of medication adherence, sport, diet, and emotion are important for improving HRQOL.
