目前的研究检查了首次在胃肠病学 (GI) 诊所就诊的儿科患者及其父母与健康对照 (HC) 相比的心理社会症状的患病率和表现。研究人员将 100 名 8-17 岁的胃肠道患者及其母亲与 100 名年龄和性别匹配的 HC 进行比较,以评估儿童和父母的行为/心理社会功能、抑郁和焦虑。结果显示,母亲和孩子报告的内化行为与心理症状之间存在显着相关性。在内化问题、适应和社交技能、领导能力、父母人际关系敏感性、抑郁、恐惧焦虑和心理症状数量方面观察到显着的群体差异。与健康同龄人相比,胃肠道患者出现社会心理和社会功能障碍的风险更高。在评估胃肠道诊所的患者时应考虑社会心理因素。患者可能会受益于涉及辅助行为干预的治疗计划,以帮助患者控制病情。
The current study examined the prevalence and presentation of psychosocial symptoms in pediatric patients and their parents presenting for first time appointments at a gastroenterology (GI) clinic compared to healthy controls (HC). One hundred GI patients, aged 8-17 years, and their mothers were compared to 100 age- and gender-matched HC on measures of child and parental behavioral/psychosocial functioning, depression, and anxiety. Results revealed significant correlations between mother- and child-reported internalizing behaviors and psychological symptoms. Significant group differences were observed in internalizing problems, adaptive and social skills, and leadership competency, as well as parental interpersonal sensitivity, depression, phobic anxiety, and number of psychological symptoms. GI patients are at increased risk for psychosocial and social dysfunction compared to healthy peers. Psychosocial factors should be considered when assessing patients in GI clinics. Patients might benefit from treatment plans that involve adjunctive behavioral intervention to assist patients in managing their conditions.
