Methods: The meta-analysis method wasemployed to achieve the research objectives. A total of 147 relevant articles were selected from Chinesedatabases, and correlation coefficients between various dimensions of quality of life and social supportwere extracted. The analysis was conducted using CMA 3.0 software, resulting in a final inclusion of18,075 total samples, including 1,654 effect sizes. Results: (1) There is a significant positive correlationbetween the quality of life in patients with serious illnesses and social support, with a correlationcoefficient of 0.461, indicating a relatively high level of correlation. (2) The quality of life in patientswith serious illnesses is significantly positively correlated with objective support, subjective support,and support utilization, with correlation coefficients of 0.342, 0.394, and 0.314, respectively, indicating amoderate to high level of correlation. Conclusion: There is a positive correlation between the quality of lifein patients with serious illnesses and social support, with varying degrees of correlation among differentdimensions.
目的:本研究旨在从多个维度出发探讨重疾患者生活质量与社会支持之间的相关性。方法:本文采用元分析方法从中文数据库选取了147篇相关文献,并提取文献中生活质量各维度与社会支持各维度的相关系数。通过CMA3.0进行分析,在最终纳入的研究中,总样本量为18075,包含1654个效应量。结果:(1)重疾患者的生活质量与社会支持呈显著正相关,相关系数为0.46,相关性较高。(2)重疾患者的生活质量与客观支持、主观支持,以及支持利用度呈显著正相关,相关系数分别为0.34、0.39、0.31,相关程度介于中等到偏高之间。结论:重疾患者的生活质量与社会支持之间存在正相关,不同维度之间的相关程度存在一定差异。
