  Parents of children with epilepsy play a key role in the management of their child’s condition. Their level of health literacy (HL), which refers to their ability to seek, understand, assess, remember, and utilize health information, is essential for handling the child optimally. The aim of this study was to investigate characteristics associated with high and low levels of different dimensions of HL in parents. HL was assessed with the multidimensional Health Literacy Questionnaire (parents’ version) and the electronic Health Literacy Scale, using data from a cohort of 254 parents of children <12 years. Bivariate correlation and multiple hierarchal linear regression (STATA version 16 SE) were used to investigate variables associated with HL. Self-efficacy (St. β = 0.14–0.34) was the only variable that predicted higher scores on every HL scale. Being older than 35 years (St. β = 0.18–0.21), level of education (St. β = 0.16–0.27), and the child having a coordinator of services (St. β = 0.16–0.28) were associated with higher scores, while sick leave due to the child’s epilepsy (St. β = −0.13 to −0.16), child comorbidities (St. β = −0.15 to −0.19), and higher levels of mental distress (St. β = −0.13 to −0.19) were associated with lower scores in several of the different HL dimensions. A total of 44.8% of the parents scored over the cutoff (≥1.85) predicting a mental disorder on the Hopkins symptom checklist. This is the first study to investigate multidimensional parental HL in a childhood epilepsy context. Our results highlight the need to investigate multiple variables, especially mental distress, to determine characteristics that may predict low parental HL. Further qualitative studies are needed to explore the underlying reasons for the parents’ HL scores and to develop inventions tailored to meet different HL needs.

  Abstract Objective The aim of this study was to investigate stages of change for physical activity and dietary habits using baseline data from persons with type 2 diabetes included in a mobile health intervention. We examined the associations between stages of change for physical activity change and dietary change, and between stages of change for each behavior and individual characteristics, health-related quality of life, self-management, depressive symptoms, and lifestyle. Research design and methods We examined 151 persons with type 2 diabetes with an glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level ≥7.1%, aged ≥18 years at baseline of a randomized controlled trial, before testing a mobile app with or without health counseling. Stages of change were dichotomized into ‘pre-action’ and ‘action’. Self-management was measured using the Health Education Impact Questionnaire (heiQ) where a higher score reflects increased self-management, and health-related quality of life was measured with the Short-Form-36 (SF-36). Logistic regression modeling was performed. Results The median HbA1c level was 7.9% (7.1–12.4), 90% were overweight or obese, and 20% had ≥3 comorbidities. 58% were in the preaction stage for physical activity change and 79% in the preaction stage for dietary change. Higher scores of self-management were associated with an increased chance of being in the action stage for both dietary change and physical activity change. Higher body mass index was associated with an 8% reduced chance of being in the action stage for physical activity change (OR 0.92, 95% CI 0.86 to 0.99). Conclusions Being in the action stage was associated with higher scores of self-management, crucial for type 2 diabetes. Over half of the participants were in the preaction stage for physical activity and dietary change, and many had a high disease burden with comorbidities and overweight.

  There are few studies evaluating the cost-effectiveness of self-management interventions for patients with psoriasis. Motivational interviewing (MI) as a telephone follow-up after climate-heliotherapy was effective on several clinical parameters, but its cost-effectiveness is unknown. A cost-utility analysis was conducted alongside a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing MI with usual care. A total of 169 Norwegian patients were included. A within-trial analysis compared the costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs). Utilities were measured with the 15D instrument, supplemented with Dermatological Life Quality Index (DLQI). A time-integrated summary score defined the clinical effects. QALYs were adjusted for baseline differences. MI provided equivalent quality of life and utility (15D: –0.0022 QALYs (95% Cl –0.02, 0.01), p = 0.77, and DLQI: –0.62 QALYs (95%CI –0.65, 0.41), p = 0.24, at lower costs €–1103 (–2293, 87), p = 0.058, compared with treatment-as-usual. The MI intervention was thus cost-effective. This result was more evident when using the DLQI as outcome measure compared with 15D.

  Illness perception (IP) concerns how patients evaluate living with a disease. To get a broader understanding of IP in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), we investigated whether breathlessness is an important precursor of IP and whether IP in its turn is related to mental health, physical health and global quality of life (QOL). One hundred and fifty-four patients with COPD participated in a cross-sectional survey. Participants underwent pulmonary function testing, provided socio-demographic and clinical information, and completed the following standardized instruments: Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Respiratory Quality of Life Questionnaire, Short-Form 12 Health Survey and the Quality of Life Scale. Multiple regression analyses were performed. A high IP score indicates that a patient believes that his/her illness represents a threat. Participants with a high score on the IP dimensions consequences, identity, concern and emotional representation, experienced more breathlessness. High scores on the IP dimensions consequences, identity and concern were associated with impaired physical health and high scores on the IP dimensions consequences, identity and emotional representation were associated with impaired mental health. Impaired global QOL was associated with high scores on the IP dimensions consequences, identity, concern, coherence and emotional representation. The strength of the associations between breathlessness and physical/mental health and global QOL decreased when certain dimensions of IP were included as predictors, indicating that IP to some extent acts as a mediating factor. These findings may have practical implications of patient counseling by helping COPD patients to cope with their disease by restructuring their personal models of illness.

  Background: Quality of life (QOL) has become established as a central concept and target for research and practice in the field of health and medicine. However, QOL is a complex concept that is interpreted and defined differently within and between disciplines, and so is also the case in health and medicine. Thus, there is a continuing philosophical debate about the meaning and content of QOL and how it should be measured. Aim: The aim of the present study was to perform a review of QOL research in medicine and health, and describe country of origin, target groups, instruments, design and conceptual issues Methods: A Systematic snapshot review were conducted with literature searches in the databases Scopus, covering Embase, MEDLINE, CINAHL and PsycINFO, to identify research studies on QOL and Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) published during one random week in November 2016. To evaluate the conceptual and methodological rigor, we used the 10 predefined criteria developed by Gill and Feinstein. Results: The findings show that QOL research is truly international, involves a variety of target groups, uses different research designs and a whole host of QOL measures. When it comes to evaluation according to the criteria developed by Gill and Feinstein, most articles still have a low-quality score; only 13 % of the articles provided a definition of the concept of QOL, few studies (6%) distinguished QOL from HRQOL. Criteria that were fulfilled most frequently were; i) stating the domains of QOL to be measured, ii) giving a reason for choosing the instruments they used, and iii) aggregating the results from multiple items. Conclusion. Knowledge about QOL is important for understanding the consequences of illness and treatment, and for medical decision-making. However, based on the current evaluation of the methodological and conceptual clarity of QOL research, we conclude that most QOL studies in health and medicine have conceptual and methodological challenges.
