The importance of health-related quality of life and its determinants including physical, emotional, and functional domains has long been recognized among blood cancer patients in the developed world but this concept is still in infancy in developing countries, including Pakistan. The objective of the study was to assess health related quality of life among blood cancer patients. A descriptive cross-sectional study design was used. A pre-validated questionnaire that is EORTC-QLQ-C30 was self-administered to a sample of 400 blood cancer patients selected using convenience sampling technique. After data collection, data was cleaned, coded, and entered in SPSS. Descriptive statistics comprising of frequency and percentages were calculated. Non-parametric tests Kruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney tests (P ≤ .05) were performed to find out the differences among different variables. The results highlighted that lowest scores for EORTC-QLQ-C30 were observed in the domain of emotional functioning (3.38, ±35.790), followed by cognitive function (4.56, ±30.368) whereas highest scores were observed in the domain of physical functioning (40.92, ±35.484). Significant difference (P ≤ .05) was observed among different domains of health-related quality of life of blood cancer patients treated in different sectors, provinces, setting, gender, and with different comorbidities. The present study concluded that blood cancer patients had poor health related quality of life in Pakistan. Emotional functioning and cognitive function were the most compromised health related quality of life domains among blood cancer patients. Females having blood cancer, those patients treated in private sector healthcare facilities, patients residing in tribal and rural setting had relatively better health related quality of life. No appropriate psychosocial care program for the blood cancer patients are available in Pakistan.The gastrointestinal (GI) involvement, including acute pancreatitis (AP) from the novel coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), is increasingly being reported. Recent evidence suggests that the pathogenesis of COVID-19 is mediated by the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) receptors and transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) for "priming," which is highly expressed in the pancreas. To our knowledge, there is no other reported case of AP associated with COVID-19 after the respiratory symptoms are resolved. In this article, we present a patient with COVID-19, who came with intractable epigastric pain and resolved respiratory symptoms. A diagnosis of AP complicated with COVID-19 was made after laboratory and imaging workup, which was successfully managed conservatively. Plication of the diaphragm is a life-changing procedure for patients affected by diaphragm paralysis. Traditionally, this procedure is performed through a thoracotomy. Access to the diaphragm via this incision is poor and the indications for surgery are limited to patients who can actually sustain such an invasive approach and associated morbidities. A minimally invasive approach was developed to improve the surgical management of diaphragm paralysis. Patients underwent minimally invasive diaphragm plication either by video-assisted or robotic surgery through a 3-port technique with CO insufflation. Patients were followed at the routine 6-week clinic and also by telephone consultation 6 to 12 months postoperatively. Data were collected on postoperative complications, postoperative pain or numbness, symptomatic improvement, and change to quality of life following surgery. Forty-eight patients underwent 49 minimally invasive diaphragm plication. Median postoperative length of hospital stay was 4 days (range 2 to 34 days) and there were no cases of mortality. Mean reduction in Medical Research Council dyspnea score per patient was 2.2 points (mode 3 points). https://www.selleckchem.com/products/asciminib-abl001.html Twenty-eight patients (77.8%) reported a significant symptomatic improvement enabling improvements in quality of life, and 97.2% ( = 35) were satisfied with the surgical outcome. Minimally invasive diaphragm plication is a safe procedure associated with prompt postoperative recovery. It is effective at reducing debilitating dyspnea and improving quality of life. Minimally invasive diaphragm plication is a safe procedure associated with prompt postoperative recovery. It is effective at reducing debilitating dyspnea and improving quality of life.Consistent with a therapeutic jurisprudence framework, court decisions and processes can have a therapeutic or antitherapeutic effect on intimate partner violence (IPV) victims. To maximize therapeutic effects, IPV scholars have advocated for survivor-defined practices that emphasize the importance of engaging with victims in a collaborative manner that promotes autonomy, choice, and control. However, limited research exists in the context of criminal protection orders (POs). The current study addressed this gap by assessing whether criminal PO match (whether victims received the level PO they requested [i.e., PO match] or not [i.e., PO mismatch]) and victims' subjective experiences of the court process were associated with their willingness to use the system in the future to address IPV. In a sample of 187 women whose partners were arrested for IPV, experiencing the court processes as positive (β = .36, p = .001) and court-related fear (β = .41, p less then .001) were positively associated with willingness to use the system in the future. Additionally, PO match moderated the association between subjective court experiences and willingness to use the system in the future. Experiencing the court processes as negative (b = .33, p = .005) and validating (b = -.36, p = .001) was associated with willingness to use the system in the future only for participants who did not receive the PO level they requested. While experiencing the court as positive (b = -.40, p ≤ .001) was associated with willingness to use the system regardless of PO match, it was most strongly associated for participants who did not receive the PO level they requested. Results suggest the importance of ascertaining strategies to improve victims' experiences with the court, especially when victims' requests are not met, to increase future engagement with the system.
