支气管哮喘患者生活质量与性别、年龄、病程的相关关系

目的探讨支气管哮喘患者生活质量与性别、年龄、病程的相关关系。方法按性别分为两组,将生活质量总得分及其构成生活质量的5个因素（活动受限、哮喘症状、心理状况、对刺激原的反应、对自身健康的关心）进行组间比较和t检验;另将全部患者上述得分数据与年龄和病程进行相关性分析。结果男女组间比较仅对刺激原的反应差异有显著性（P〈0．05）;仅有哮喘症状与病程呈正帽关关系（r=0．103,P〈0．05）;对刺激原的反应与年龄（r=-0．123,P〈0．01）和活动受限与病程：r=-0．133,P〈0．01）呈负相关关系。结论哮喘患者生存质量评分中,女性对刺激原的反应较玛性强烈;患者对刺激原的反应随年龄增加而下降;患者的症状与病程呈正相关关系,而活动受限与病程呈负相关关系。

Quality of Life and Its relationship with sex, age and asthma duration in asthma patients

Objective To investigate quality of life （QOL） and its relationship with sex, age andasthma duration in asthma patients. Method Scores of QOL and its five components （ limitation of activity, symptoms of asthma, psychologic status, response to irritant and health concern） were recorded and sta- tistically compared tetween groups. Correlation analysis between sex, asthma duration and QOL scores was completed. Results There was statistically significant difference between male group and female group only in the scores of response to irritant（ P 〈 0.05 ）. Asthma symptoms score was positively correlated with asthma duration （ r = 0. 103, P 〈 0.05 ）. Response to irritant was negatively correlated with age （ r = - 0. 123 ,P 〈 0.011 , as well as limitation of activity with asthma duration （ r = - 0. 133, P 〈 0.01 ）. Conclusion Female seemed to have stronger response to irritant than male. With the increase of age, asthma patients＇response to irritant became weaker. The positive correlation between symptoms and asthma duration might indicate insufficient treatment, while the negative correlation between limitation of activity and asthma duration might indicate tolerance of asthma symptoms.
