青年男性情绪障碍与睾酮缺乏的相关性研究

Correlation study of mood disorders and testosterone deficiency in young men

目的:探讨青年男性情绪障碍(Mood disorders)与睾酮缺乏(Testosterone deficiency)之间的相关性。方法:采用焦虑自测量表SAS(Self-rating Anxiety Scale)和抑郁自测量表SDS(Self-rating Depression Scale)对86例男性青年进行精神心理状态评估,同时测定其血清总睾酮水平,分析情绪障碍与睾酮缺乏之间是否具有相关性。结果:评分显示焦虑及抑郁障碍者,其血清睾酮水平较之无情绪障碍者多显示低下,按构成比进行卡方检验,其差异具有显著性。结论:青年男性情绪障碍与睾酮缺乏具有相关性,情绪障碍者多伴有睾酮缺乏,其原因和机制尚有待探讨。

Objectives： To explore the correlations between mood disorders and testosterone deficiency of young men. Methods： The SAS（ Self- rating Anxiety Scale） and SDS（ Self- rating Depression Scale） were used to assess the mental state of 86 youth men. The total serum testosterone levels were tested at the same time and the correlations between mood disorders and testosterone deficiency were analyzed. Results： For cases of anxiety and depression disorders,they had lower testosterone level than the cases without mood disorders. According to constituent ratio,the chi- square test indicated that the differences were significant. Conclusions： The mood disorder is associated with testosterone deficiency of young men. The mood disorder patients often have testosterone deficiency.The reasons and mechanisms remain to be discussed.
