我们的目的是调查与对照组相比,尖锐湿疣患者是否会经历更大的羞耻感和更低的自尊感。 60 名尖锐湿疣患者与 60 名无症状泌尿生殖 (GU) 内科患者和 60 名骨科门诊患者进行了比较。疣患者的羞耻感得分 (31.08) 显着高于任一对照组 (GU 医学对照组 20.77;骨科对照组 19.00) (P < 0.0001)。在疣样本组中检查了羞耻、低自尊、侵入性想法、回避行为和自我效能影响等每个个体情绪参数对健康相关生活质量(HRQoL)的影响。只有内化羞耻 (P = 0.001) 和侵入性想法 (P < 0.0001) 在预测 HRQoL 分数方面具有显着意义。患有生殖器疣会产生情感影响,这会对患者的生活质量产生深远的影响,这些问题需要像身体疣一样得到解决。
We aimed to investigate whether patients with genital warts experience greater feelings of shame and lower self-esteem compared with controls. Sixty patients with genital warts were compared with 60 asymptomatic genitourinary (GU) medicine patients and 60 orthopaedic outpatients. The shame scores of those with warts (31.08) were significantly higher (P < 0.0001) than either control group (GU medicine controls 20.77; orthopaedic controls 19.00). The impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) by each of the individual emotional parameters of shame, low self-esteem, intrusive thoughts, avoidance behaviour and self-efficacy impact was examined in the wart sample group. Only internalized shame (P = 0.001) and intrusive thoughts (P < 0.0001) were significant in predicting HRQoL scores. There are emotional implications in having genital warts, which can have a profound effect on a patient's quality of life and these need addressing just as much as the physical warts.
