先前的研究表明，创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）患者的生活质量（QoL）持续下降，酒精滥用率较高。因此，重要的是，我们探讨生活质量和酒精滥用的PTSD诊断。因此，本研究的目的是评估创伤后应激障碍，生活质量和酒精滥用之间的关联英国（UK）退伍军人。163名寻求心理健康障碍帮助的英国退伍军人被招募参加。线性回归被用来评估可能的创伤后应激障碍，生活质量和酒精滥用之间的关联。Pearson相关分析被用来评估PTSD症状群和生活质量领域之间的关系。我们发现未经调整的回归显示，与那些没有PTSD的人相比，PTSD患者在身体健康，心理社会，社会关系和环境领域的QoL评分较低。调整年龄，性别和结果变量，只有与身体健康领域和心理社会领域的关联仍然具有统计学意义。PTSD与生活质量的相关分析显示，功能障碍与身体健康领域，功能障碍与心理社会领域之间的负相关最强。我们发现那些可能患有PTSD的人生活质量较低，酒精滥用得分较高。
Prior research has shown that those with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) have persistent reductions in quality of life (QoL), and higher rates of alcohol misuse. As such, it is important that we explore QoL and alcohol misuse on PTSD diagnosis. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess the association between PTSD, QoL and alcohol misuse among United Kingdom (UK) veterans. 163 UK veterans who sought help for a mental health disorder were recruited to take part. Linear regressions were used to assess the association between probable PTSD, QoL and alcohol misuse. Pearson’s correlation analyses were used to assess the relationship between PTSD symptom clusters and QoL domains. We found unadjusted regressions showed evidence that, compared to those without PTSD, those with PTSD had lower QoL scores on physical health, psychosocial, social relationships and environment domains. Adjusting for age, sex, and outcome variables, only associations with the physical health domain and psychosocial domain remained statistically significant. Correlation analyses between PTSD and QoL domains showed the strongest negative correlations between the functional impairment and physical health domain, and between the functional impairment and psychosocial domain. We found that those with probable PTSD had lower QoL and higher alcohol misuse scores.
