摘要
本研究调查了巴勒斯坦高血压患者的自评心理健康状况。为此,研究人员分层随机抽取了 502 名高血压患者(年龄 ⩾ 18 岁),要求他们填写经过验证的阿拉伯语版《一般健康问卷》(GHQ-28)。收集数据后,使用描述性统计、曼-惠特尼 U 检验和逻辑回归对数据进行了分析。研究发现,在统计学上,女性的 GHQ 平均得分高于男性(p
Self-rated health and psychological health among hypertensive patients in Palestine.
The study has investigated the self-rated psychological health of hypertensive patients in Palestine. To that end, a stratified random sample of 502 hypertensive patients (aged ⩾ 18 years) was asked to complete a validated Arabic version of the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28). After collection, the data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney U test and logistic regression. In this study, it was found the mean scores for GHQ were statistically higher for females than males (p < 0.05). The females were found to be 1.701 (95% CI = 1.025-2.823) times more at risk of psychological disorders compared to males. In conclusion, improvement of social determinants of hypertensive patients can make a difference in their psychological/mental health.
