Abstract

Background: Atopic dermatitis is a chronic skin disease which is increasing in incidence and prevalence. An understanding of the mental burden patients carry is essential for successful psychodermatological treatment.

Patients and methods: 62 adult atopic dermatitis patients were tested with a questionnaire and compared with a matched group of 62 healthy persons. Using the questionnaire for assessing suicide risk of Pöldinger, suicidal ideations were assessed. Anxiety and depression were detected by using HADS-D; the severity of symptoms by patients' self-evaluation based on SCORAD index. Finally, the onset of atopic dermatitis was established.

Results: A significantly higher level of suicidal ideation, anxiety and depression was shown among patients with atopic dermatitis. All three aspects showed a medium effect size. Strong correlations between severity of symptoms and psychological burden were observed. 16.1% of patients with atopic dermatitis suffered from suicidal ideation, while only 1.6% in control group did, producing an odds ratio of 11.73 (95%CI 1.45-94.71).

Conclusion: Suicidal ideation, anxiety and depression are important factors, which should be addressed when treating atopic dermatitis.

成人特应性皮炎患者的自杀意念、焦虑和抑郁。

背景:特应性皮炎是一种发病率和流行率都在上升的慢性皮肤病。了解患者的精神负担对成功的精神皮肤病治疗至关重要。患者和方法:对62例成人特应性皮炎患者进行问卷调查，并与对照组62名健康人进行比较。采用Pöldinger自杀风险评估问卷，对自杀意念进行评估。采用HADS-D检测焦虑、抑郁;症状的严重程度由患者基于SCORAD指数的自我评价来判断。最后，确定了特应性皮炎的发病。结果:特应性皮炎患者的自杀意念、焦虑和抑郁水平显著升高。这三个方面的效应均为中等。观察到症状严重程度与心理负担之间有很强的相关性。特应性皮炎患者有自杀意念的比例为16.1%，对照组为1.6%，比值比为11.73 (95%CI 1.45 ~ 94.71)。结论:自杀意念、焦虑和抑郁是治疗特应性皮炎时应注意的重要因素。
