The current status of social dissociation in colorectal cancer patients with chemotherapy and its influenc-ing factors
Objective To explore the current situation and influencing factors of social alienation in cancer che-motherapy patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 100 colorectal cancer che-motherapy patients admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to December 2022.A general situation survey questionnaire and a general alienation scale(GAS)were used to investigate their sense of social alienation.Multivariate logistic regres-sion analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for social alienation in colorectal cancer chemotherapy patients.Results The total GAS score of cancer chemotherapy patients was(50.58±5.54),with the highest average score of powerlessness(3.52±0.24)and the second highest score of self alienation(3.29±0.19).There was no statistically significant differ-ence in the GAS scores of gender,residence,and diagnosis time among cancer chemotherapy patients(P>0.05).The GAS scores of cancer chemotherapy patients with age ranging from 66 to 80 years old,per capita monthly income ranging from 2000 to 3000 yuan,middle school education or below,disease stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ,and chemotherapy courses>2 times were the highest,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age 66-80 years old,per capita monthly income 2000-3000 yuan,education in junior high school or below,disease stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ,and chemotherapy course>2 times were risk factors for social alienation in colorectal cancer chemotherapy patients,with all P<0.05.Conclusion Patients with colorectal cancer undergoing chemotherapy have a relatively high level of social alienation,with age ranging from 66 to 80 years old,per capita monthly income ranging from 2000 to 3000 yuan,education in junior high school or below,disease stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ,and chemotherapy course>2 times being the influencing factors.Clinical attention should be paid closely.
