Heterogeneity in medical coping modes and the moderating role of social support on social disability in patients after percutaneous coronary intervention

This study reveals two key findings: first, post-PCI patients are heterogeneous in coping, comprising adaptive and maladaptive subgroups; second, the impact of these coping styles on social disability is non-linearly moderated by social support. Clinicians should assess both coping profiles and social support levels to tailor interventions effectively.
