Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have well-known adverse effects, and numerous studies have shown inappropriate behaviors regarding their use. The primary aim of this study was to analyze the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding the use of NSAIDs simultaneously in one of the largest and most populated areas of Italy, Naples.
UNASSIGNED: From 2021 December 14th to 2022 January 4th, a cross-sectional survey study was conducted among community centers, working places, and universities using a snowball sampling method. For inclusion in the study, the participants were required to be at least 18 years old and residents in the metropolitan area of Naples. Three multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA) models were developed by including variables that could potentially be associated with the following outcomes of interest: knowledge (Model I), attitudes (Model II), and behavior (Model III) regarding the use of NSAIDs.
UNASSIGNED: Data were acquired from 1,012 questionnaires administered to subjects evenly divided by gender with an average age of 36.8 years and revealed that only 7.9% of the participants self-admittedly did not take NSAIDs, while approximately half the participants (50%) admitted to occasionally using them. The results showed a statistically significant correlation between attitudes regarding the appropriate use of NSAIDs and less knowledge. The regression analyses indicated that behaviors regarding the appropriate use of NSAIDs were statistically significant in younger respondents, non-smokers, and those without children. These interesting results showed that behaviors regarding the appropriate use of NSAIDs were significantly higher among respondents with less knowledge and more positive attitudes.
UNASSIGNED: According to the collected data and statistical analysis results, it is possible to identify factors that can greatly affect inappropriate behaviors regarding the use of NSAIDs and establish targeted prevention programs.
摘要:
非甾体抗炎药(NSAIDs)具有众所周知的不良反应,许多研究表明,他们的使用行为不恰当。这项研究的主要目的是分析知识,态度,以及在意大利最大和人口最多的地区之一同时使用NSAIDs的行为,那不勒斯
从2021年12月14日至2022年1月4日,在社区中心进行了一项横断面调查研究,工作场所,和大学使用滚雪球抽样方法。为了纳入研究,参与者必须至少18岁,并且居住在那不勒斯都会区。通过包括可能与以下感兴趣的结果相关的变量,开发了三个多元线性回归分析(MLRA)模型:知识(模型I),态度(模型二),和有关使用NSAIDs的行为(模型III)。
数据是从1,012份问卷中获得的,问卷按性别平均分配,平均年龄为36.8岁,显示只有7.9%的参与者自我承认没有服用NSAIDs,而大约一半的参与者(50%)承认偶尔使用它们。结果显示,关于适当使用NSAIDs的态度与较少的知识之间存在统计学上的显着相关性。回归分析表明,有关适当使用NSAIDs的行为在年轻受访者中具有统计学意义。非吸烟者,还有那些没有孩子的人.这些有趣的结果表明,在知识较少和态度较积极的受访者中,有关适当使用NSAIDs的行为明显更高。
根据收集的数据和统计分析结果,有可能发现可能对使用NSAIDs的不当行为产生重大影响的因素,并建立有针对性的预防计划.
