我们使用二次数据分析来检验医患关系和身心健康指标之间的关联。在与男性发生性行为的hiv阳性男性门诊样本中，患者对医患关系的积极认知与较少的心理健康症状相关（N = 171）。回归分析揭示了焦虑和抑郁在解释医患关系两个方面（即提供的信息质量和医患互动方式）与健康相关生活质量之间的关联方面的作用。研究结果表明，在与男性发生性关系的艾滋病毒阳性男性中，医患关系对于改善身体健康和功能以及保持参与护理的重要性。
We used secondary data analysis to examine associations among aspects of patient-provider relationships and mental and physical health indicators. Positive patient perceptions of patient-provider relationships were associated with fewer mental health symptoms in this outpatient sample of HIV-positive men who have sex with men (N = 171). Regression analyses revealed the role of anxiety and depression in explaining associations between two aspects of patient-provider relationships (i.e. quality of information offered and provider interactional style) and health-related quality of life. The findings demonstrated the importance of patient-provider relationships to improving physical health and functioning and maintaining engagement in care, among HIV-positive men who have sex with men.
