摘要

研究目的网络焦虑症被定义为一种以在互联网上过度搜索健康信息为特征的焦虑症。本研究的目的是调查多囊卵巢综合征青少年网络成瘾的程度，并将其与同龄青少年进行比较。方法：本研究纳入了在 2023 年 4 月至 2023 年 9 月期间就诊并同意参与研究的 426 名青少年。患者分为两组：多囊卵巢综合征组（135 名）和对照组（291 名）。研究人员面对面地对患者进行了网络成瘾严重程度量表（CSS）测试。对两组患者的 CSS 和分量表得分进行了分析和比较：结果：两组患者的 CSS 总分有明显差异（p=.007），对照组的平均值为 72（59-83）分，多囊卵巢综合征组的平均值为 77（63-91）分。在分析网络成瘾子量表时，发现各组之间在强迫（p:0.015）、苦恼（p:0.039）、过度（p:0.028）和对医疗专业人员的不信任（p:0.005）等子类别上存在统计学差异：结论：患有多囊卵巢综合症的青少年显示出较高的网络成瘾水平，这可能会加重相关的焦虑和抑郁症状。医疗服务提供者应注意评估该患者群体的互联网使用情况，并提供预期指导。

Cyberchondria Levels in Adolescent Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in the Digital Age

Study Objective

Cyberchondria is defined as a form of anxiety characterized by excessive health searches on the Internet. Our aim in this study is to investigate the extent of cyberchondria in adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and to compare them with adolescents of the same age.

Methods

A total of 426 adolescents who presented to clinic between April 2023 and September 2023 and agreed to participate in the study were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups: PCOS group (135 patients) and control group (291 patients). The Cyberchondria Severity Scale (CSS) was administered to participants face-to-face. The CSS and subscale scores of both patient groups were analyzed and compared.

Results

Total CSS scores were significantly different between groups (P = .007) with a mean value of 72 (59-83) in the control group and 77 (63-91) in the PCOS group. When cyberchondria subscales were analyzed, statistical difference was found between the groups in the subcategories of compulsion (P: .015), distress (P: .039), excessiveness (P: .028), and mistrust of medical professional (P: .005).

Conclusion

Adolescents with PCOS demonstrated higher levels of cyberchondria which could aggravate associated symptoms of anxiety and depression. Health providers should be mindful to evaluate internet use in this patient population and provide anticipatory guidance.
