Abstract

Objectives: The aim of our study is to evaluate the depression rate in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA) and its association with pain, disease activity, functional status, and various health related qualityof life (HRQoL) domains in terms of functional status, vitality, social and emotional functioning.Materials and Methods: A total of 90 RA patients and 50 sex and age matched controls were includedin the study. Demographic characteristics, erythrocyte sedimentation rates, C‐reactive protein, tenderand swollen joint count, patient and physician global assessment of disease activity were recorded.Disease Activity Score‐28 (DAS28) was used for measuring disease activity. The severity of pain wasdetermined by using 10 cm Visual Analog Scale‐Pain (VAS‐pain). HRQoL was evaluated by using ShortForm 36 (SF 36).HAQ (Health Assessment Questionnaire) was used for evaluation of the functional status. Depressionwas evaluated by using Beck Depression Scale (BDS).Results: Mean age was 54.51±12.54 in RA (75 women, 15 men) group and 51.94±9.69 in the control group(41 women, 9 men). Mean VAS‐pain was 55.85±26.24; HAQ was 1.27±0.81 and DAS28 was 5.04 ±2.44 inRA patients. The mean BDS was 19.67±13.11 in RA group and 6.64±6.73 in the control group. RA patientsscored significantly higher in BDS when compared with the controls (p

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmamızın amacı romatoid artritli (RA) hastalarda ağrı, hastalık aktivitesi, fonksiyonel durum ve vitalite, fonksiyonellik, sosyal ve duygusal işlevsellik gibi sağlıkla ilişkili yaşam kalitesi (HRQoL) alanları arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmektir. Materyal ve Metot: Çalışmaya toplam 90 RA hastası ve 50 cinsiyet ve yaş uyumlu kontrol dahil edildi. Demografik özellikler, eritrosit sedimantasyon oranları, C‐reaktif protein, hassas ve şiş eklem sayısı, hasta ve hekimin global değerlendirmesi kaydedildi. Hastalık aktivitesini ölçmek için Hastalık Aktivite Skoru‐28 (DAS28) kullanıldı. Ağrının şiddeti, 10 cm Görsel Analog Skala‐Ağrı (VAS‐ağrı) kullanılarak belirlendi. HRQoL, Kısa Form 36 (SF 36) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Fonksiyonel durumun değerlendirilmesi için HAQ (Sağlık Değerlendirme Anketi) kullanıldı. Depresyon, Beck Depresyon Ölçeği (BDS) kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Yaş ortalaması RA'da (54 kadın, 15 erkek) 54,51 ± 12,54; kontrol grubunda (41 kadın, 9 erkek) 51,94 ± 9,69 idi. RA'lı hastalarda ortalama VAS 55,85 ± 26,24 idi; HAQ 1,27 ± 0,81, DAS28 ise 5,04 ± 2,44 idi. RA grubunda ortalama BDS 19,67 ± 13,11 ve kontrol grubunda 6,64 ± 6,73 idi. RA hastalar kontrol grubu ile karşılaştırıldığında, BDS'de anlamlı olarak daha yüksek puan aldı (p
