疼痛抑郁共病对视神经脊髓炎谱系疾病患者生活质量的影响

Influence of Pain-depression Comorbidity on Quality of Life in Patients with Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorder

目的了解视神经脊髓炎谱系疾病(NMOSD)患者合并疼痛抑郁共病情况、药物治疗比例、治疗效果及其对患者生活质量的影响。方法选取北京协和医院神经内科门诊合并疼痛的NMOSD患者,就诊当天由神经内科医师完成对原发病的评估,由麻醉科医师完成对疼痛(简明疼痛评估量表)、抑郁(贝克抑郁量表第2版)及生活质量(健康调查简表-36)的评估。结果共81例患者参与本研究,其中38例(46.9%)合并抑郁纳入共病组,共病组与非共病组患者评估时疼痛严重程度差异无统计学意义[共病组(3.3±3.1)分,非共病组(2.3±2.2)分;P=0.087]。共病组患者简明疼痛评估量表中日常生活、日常工作(P均=0.001)及情绪、与他人关系、生活兴趣(P均<0.001)、行走能力(P=0.004)、睡眠(P=0.016)影响评分均显著高于非共病组,健康调查简表-36中生理功能(P=0.001)及生理职能、身体疼痛、总体健康、活力、社会功能、情感职能、精神健康(P均<0.001)评分均显著低于非共病组。所有患者中仅30.9%接受疼痛治疗药物治疗,疼痛缓解程度(53.6±28.9)%,无患者接受抗抑郁药物治疗。结论NMOSD合并疼痛抑郁共病发生率较高,严重影响生活质量,然而,接受镇痛或抗抑郁药物治疗比例较低,值得引起重视。

Objective To investigate the incidence,treatment,therapeutic effect,and impact on quality of life of pain-depression comorbidity in the patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder(NMOSD).Methods The NMOSD patients comorbid with pain visiting the out-patient clinic of Peking Union Medical College Hospital were interviewed in a face-to-face manner by neurologists for evaluating the neurologic disease.Pain,depression,and quality of life were evaluated by anesthesiologists based on the brief pain inventory,the Beck depression inventory-Ⅱ,and the MOS 36-item short form health survey scales,respectively.Results Totally 81 patients were included in this study,among which 38(46.9%)patients comorbid with depression were enrolled in the comorbidity group.The pain severity showed no significant difference between the two groups(3.3±3.1 vs.2.3±2.2,P=0.087).The daily life activities and health-related quality of life were more severely influenced in the patients with comorbidity than in the patients without comorbidity as illustrated by the breif pain inventory[general activity and normal work(P=0.001);mood,relationship with other people,and enjoyment of life(all P<0.001);walking ability(P=0.004);sleep(P=0.016)]and the MOS 36-item short form health survey scales[physical functioning(P=0.001);role-physical,bodily pain,general health,vitality,social functioning,role-emotional,mental health(all P<0.001)].Only 30.9%of pain sufferers received analgesic medications,with the mean pain reduction percentage of(53.6±28.9)%.None of the patients in this study took antidepressants.Conclusions Pain-depression comorbidity was common in NMOSD patients and severely influenced the quality of life of the patients.However,only a few patients received analgesic or antidepressant medications.Pain-depression comorbidity in NMOSD patients should be scrutinized.
