摘要

背景:脂肪水肿是一种慢性疾病,其特征是脂肪过度沉积在臀部、臀部和小腿,严重影响生活质量。在捷克,关于脂肪水肿症状和抑郁症状之间关系的研究有限,尽管这种情况很普遍,而且对心理健康有影响。目的:本研究旨在探讨捷克妇女脂肪水肿症状与抑郁症状严重程度之间的关系,并评估她们的生活质量。方法:我们对43名患有脂肪水肿的妇女进行了在线调查。参与者完成生活质量(WHOQOL-BREF)、社会人口学和临床特征以及抑郁症状严重程度的问卷调查,并使用PHQ-9工具进行评估。结果:PHQ-9结果显示50.9%的被试表现出中度至重度抑郁症状。生活质量评分各不相同,27.9%的参与者认为自己的健康状况很差或很差。脂水肿症状(如呼吸短促、肌肉僵硬和抑郁严重程度)之间存在显著相关性,表明身体症状与心理健康之间存在复杂关系。结论:这些发现强调了脂肪水肿患者所面临的重大心理健康负担。身体和抑郁症状之间的联系强调需要采取全面、有针对性的干预措施,特别是综合的精神和身体保健方法,旨在改善这一人群的整体福祉。

Mental and physical health burden and quality of life in Czech women with lipedema.

Mental and physical health burden and quality of life in Czech women with lipedema.

Background: Lipedema is a chronic condition characterized by excessive fat deposition in the hips, buttocks, and lower legs, significantly impacting quality of life. In Czechia, limited research exists on the relationship between lipedema symptoms and depressive symptoms, despite the condition's prevalence and its impact on mental health.

Aim: This study aims to investigate the relationship between lipedema symptoms and the severity of depressive symptoms among Czech women and assess their quality of life.

Methods: We administered an online survey to 43 women with lipedema. Participants completed questionnaires on quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF), sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, and depressive symptoms severity, evaluated using the PHQ-9 tool.

Results: PHQ-9 results showed that 50.9% of participants exhibited moderate to severe depressive symptoms. Quality of life ratings varied, with 27.9% of participants rating their health as poor or very poor. Significant correlations were found between lipedema symptoms, such as shortness of breath, muscle stiffness, and depression severity, indicating a complex relationship between physical symptoms and mental health.

Conclusion: These findings highlight the significant mental health burden faced by individuals with lipedema. The association between physical and depressive symptoms emphasizes the need for comprehensive, tailored interventions, especially integrated mental and physical healthcare approaches, aimed at improving overall well-being in this population.
