Objective: To explore the mediating effect of coping style between illness uncertainty and anxiety symptoms in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) complicated by acute pulmonary infection. Methods: A total of 152 patients with COPD complicated by acute pulmonary infection at Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from December 2022 to December 2024 were enrolled using convenience sampling method. The general information questionnaire, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire(SCSQ), Chinese version of Mishel Uncertainty in Illness Scale(MUIS), and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety subscale(HADS-A) were used to investigate patients' general information, coping style, illness uncertainty, and anxiety symptoms. Pearson correlation coefficient model was applied to explore the correlation between coping style, illness uncertainty, and patients' anxiety symptoms. Multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the associated factors of patients' anxiety symptoms. Amos 26.0 software was used to construct a mediating effect model to explore the mediating role of coping style between illness uncertainty and anxiety symptoms in patients with COPD complicated by acute pulmonary infection. Results: Among the 152 patients with COPD complicated by acute pulmonary infection, the scores for the positive coping dimension and negative coping dimension of the SCSQ scale, MUIS, and HADS-A scale were(19.32±3.69),(13.04±3.15),(85.70±7.93), and(7.13±2.27), respectively. Pearson correlation analysis results showed that the positive coping dimension score of the SCSQ scale in patients with COPD complicated by acute pulmonary infection was negatively correlated with HADS-A score(r=-0.384, P<0.001), while the negative coping dimension score of the SCSQ scale and MUIS score were positively correlated with HADS-A score(r=0.438, 0.495, both P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that dyspnea grade, number of hospitalizations due to acute exacerbation of COPD in the past year, negative coping dimension score of the SCSQ scale, and MUIS score were risk factors of patients' anxiety symptoms, while the positive coping dimension score of the SCSQ scale was a protective factor(P<0.05). The mediating effect model revealed that after controlling for confounding factors including dyspnea grade and number of hospitalizations due to acute exacerbation of COPD in the past year, the model still demonstrated good fit and the confidence intervals corresponding to each path did not include zero. The indirect effect value of illness uncertainty on patients' anxiety symptoms through positive coping style was 0.049, and the indirect effect value of illness uncertainty on patients' anxiety symptoms through negative coping style was 0.086, with the mediating effect accounting for 26.11% of the total effect. Conclusion: Anxiety symptoms in patients with COPD complicated by acute pulmonary infection should not be overlooked. Coping style has a partial mediating role between patients' illness uncertainty and anxiety. Improving patients' coping style and reducing illness uncertainty may be effective approaches to alleviate anxiety symptoms. |
