Abstract

Objectives: To investigate the correlation between lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS), erectile dysfunction (ED), and testosterone deficiency (TD) with depressive, stress, and anxiety symptoms.

Material and methods: From October 2019 to March 2020, 113 males were included. Inclusion criteria: age 40-75, no clinical suspicion of prostate cancer, no serious cardiovascular comorbidities. All patients completed a set of questionnaires: International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5), and Depression Anxiety Stress Scales (DASS-21).

Results: Median age was 62 years (range 40-74), mean IPSS score was 10.94 (SD 7.75), mean IIEF-5 score 13.12 (SD 7.08), and mean DASS-21 score 11.35 (SD 8.24). According to DASS-21 subscales, 28 (24.8%) patients had depressive symptoms, 25 (22.1%) anxiety symptoms, and 25 (22.1%) stress symptoms. Depression was associated with LUTS (14.5 vs. 8 score, p = .002). Similarly, stress symptoms were associated with LUTS (IPSS 15 vs. 7 score, p = .0001) and with ED (IIEF-5 5 vs. 15 score, p = .01). Positive Spearman's rho correlations between LUTS and all three, depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms were found (p values <.001).

Conclusions: LUTS is associated with depression, anxiety, and stress symptoms. Screening for these symptoms could help with individual counseling and management.

下尿路症状与临床相关的抑郁、焦虑和压力症状有关。

目的:探讨下尿路症状(LUTS)、勃起功能障碍(ED)和睾酮缺乏(TD)与抑郁、压力和焦虑症状的相关性。材料与方法:2019年10月至2020年3月，纳入113名男性。纳入标准:年龄40-75岁，无前列腺癌临床怀疑，无严重心血管合并症。所有患者完成一套问卷调查:国际前列腺症状评分(IPSS)，国际勃起功能指数(IIEF-5)和抑郁焦虑压力量表(DASS-21)。结果:中位年龄为62岁(40-74岁)，IPSS平均评分为10.94 (SD 7.75)， IIEF-5平均评分为13.12 (SD 7.08)， DASS-21平均评分为11.35 (SD 8.24)。根据DASS-21量表，28例(24.8%)患者有抑郁症状，25例(22.1%)患者有焦虑症状，25例(22.1%)患者有应激症状。抑郁与LUTS相关(14.5分对8分，p = 0.002)。同样，应激症状与LUTS (IPSS评分15比7,p = 0.0001)和ED (iief - 55评分5比15,p = 0.01)相关。发现LUTS与抑郁、焦虑和压力症状三者之间的Spearman rho正相关(p值)。结论:LUTS与抑郁、焦虑和压力症状相关。筛查这些症状有助于进行个人咨询和管理。
