Objective To test the mediating role of self-care behavior in the relationship between health literacy and BP control in older adults with hypertension. Material and methods A cross-sectional study design was used. We enrolled 220 older adult patients with hypertension at one teaching hospital in Vietnam. Logistic regression and linear regression were conducted to test the mediation effect of self-care behavior in the relationship between health literacy and BP control. Results and discussion Self-care behavior mediated the relationship between health literacy and BP control. The significant coefficient of path a (β = 0.019, p < .001), and path c (β = -0.054, p < .001) suggested a significant effect of health literacy on self-care behavior, and a significant total effect of health literacy on BP control, while the non-significant coefficient of path b (β = -0.012, p = .577) suggested a non-significant effect of self-care behavior on BP control. Additionally, the significant coefficient of path c’ (β = -0.053, p < .001) suggested a mediation model, that is, self-care behavior mediated the relationship between health literacy and BP control. Conclusion Self-care behavior is observed as a mediating factor in the relationship between health literacy and blood pressure (BP) control among older adults with hypertension in Vietnam.

Background and objective: Depression is one of the most common psychological reactions that patients show during diagnosis and treatment. This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of nursing self-care educational intervention on reducing depression in women with breast cancer undergoing post-mastectomy chemotherapy. Methods: This quasi-experimental study (pre-test-post-test) was performed on 90 women with breast cancer undergoing post-mastectomy chemotherapy referred to two teaching hospitals in southeastern Iran from September 1, 2019, to December 1, 2020. Patients were selected using the convenience sampling method and randomly assigned into intervention (nursing self-care educational intervention) and control (routine care) groups. The standard BDI-13 instrument was used to assess depression. Results: In this study, the mean age of patients in the intervention and control groups was 46.20 and 44.64, respectively. The results showed that the nursing self-care educational intervention in the intervention group compared to the control group significantly reduced depression in patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy after mastectomy (p = 0.001). Conclusion: According to the results of the present study, nursing self-care educational intervention can be used as an effective and cost-effective adjunctive therapy along with common treatments to reduce depression in women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy after mastectomy.
