我们的目的是评估健康相关的生活质量（HRQoL）的难民和寻求庇护者在北方希腊。SF-36健康调查用于评估参与者的HRQoL。与会者亲自联系。采用相关性和依赖性检验来检查参与者的人口统计学、居住相关和医疗相关特征与SF-36两个组成部分（物理PCS/心理MCS）量表的相关性。回归进行调查的影响，这些特征的组成部分规模。居住在希腊北方城市公寓和营地的难民和寻求庇护者（n = 161）参加了研究，报告HRQoL较差（PCS = 43.9，MCS = 39.5）。年龄、性别、住院时间、非政府组织提供的福利、住宿类型、患有严重健康问题和接受药物治疗与HRQoL相关。这项研究构成了第一个研究评估难民和寻求庇护者在北方希腊HRQoL。
We aimed at assessing the health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) of refugees and asylum seekers in Northern Greece. The SF-36 Health Survey was used to assess participants' HRQoL. Participants were contacted in person. Correlation and dependence tests were employed to examine the association of participants' demographic, residence-related and medical-related characteristics with the two SF-36 component (physical-PCS/mental-MCS) scales. Regressions were conducted to investigate the effect of these characteristics on component scales. Refugees and asylum seekers (n = 161) living in urban apartments and camps in Northern Greece participated in the study reporting poor HRQoL (PCS = 43.9, MCS = 39.5). Age, gender, duration of stay, benefits offered by Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), type of accommodation, suffering from a serious health problem and receipt of medication were associated with HRQoL. This study constitutes the first research assessing HRQoL of refugees and asylum seekers in Northern Greece.
