摘要
目的:外阴阴道念珠菌病是世界上第二大最常见的妇科感染,可对育龄妇女的健康和生命造成不利后果。因此,本研究的目的是确定伊朗Boukan地区外阴阴道念珠菌病的患病率及其与促进健康的生活方式的关系。材料和方法:这项横断面研究是在320名15-49岁的已婚妇女的参与下进行的,她们被转诊到布坎的所有保健中心。研究对象于2018年10月至2019年3月采用便利抽样技术选择。获得了参与者的书面知情同意,然后要求他们完成人口调查问卷和促进健康生活方式概况- ii (HPLP-II)。最后使用SPSS软件进行数据分析。结果:124例(38.8%)女性患有外阴阴道念珠菌病,健康促进生活方式评分在1 ~ 4可能范围内的总均值(标准差)为2.4分(0.2分)。人口学特征与外阴阴道念珠菌病无显著相关性(P0.05)。结论:一般来说,超过三分之一的参与者患有外阴阴道念珠菌病。最终,感染与人口统计信息和促进健康的生活方式的任何特征没有统计学上的显著关系。
The Association Between Vaginal Candidiasis and Health-promoting Lifestyle in Iranian Women: A Cross-sectional Study
Objectives: Vulvovaginal candidiasis is the second most common gynecological infection in the world that can bring about unfavorable consequences for the health and life of the women of reproductive age. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of vulvovaginal candidiasis and its relationship with the health-promoting lifestyle in Boukan, Iran. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with the participation of 320 married women aged 15-49 years who referred to all health centers of Boukan. The subjects were selected using a convenience sampling technique from October 2018 to March 2019. Written informed consent was obtained from the participants who were then asked to complete a demographic questionnaire and the Health- Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II (HPLP-II). Finally, the data were analyzed in SPSS, version 24. Results: A total of 124 women (38.8%) had vulvovaginal candidiasis, and the total mean (standard deviation) score of health-promoting lifestyle was 2.4 (0.2) from the possible range of 1-4. None of the demographic characteristics and vulvovaginal candidiasis were significantly related based on the results (P<0.05). The highest (2.8±0.3) and lowest (1.6±0.4) mean scores belonged to "nutrition" and "physical activity" subdomains, respectively. In addition, no statistically significant relationship was found between vulvovaginal candidiasis and the total mean score of health-promoting lifestyle and its subdomains (P>0.05). Conclusions: In general, more than one-third of the participants had vulvovaginal candidiasis. Eventually, the infection had no statistically significant relationship with any of the characteristics of demographic information and health-promoting lifestyle.
