Pearson’s correlation test and hierarchical regression analyses were used to assess the correlations between LUTS, depressive symptoms and IPs.Results: Our study found that the severity of LUTS was associated with depressive symptoms and subscales of illness perception; meanwhile, IPs were associated with the level of education. A positive relationship was found between the scores of PHQ9 and the B-IPQ subscales of illness consequences, identity, timeline, concern and emotion; thus, a negative correlation was found between scores of PHQ9 and the B-IPQ subscales of illness coherence, personal control and treatment control. The hierarchical regression analysis showed IPSS and the B-IPQ subscales of illness consequences, concern and emotion were significantly associated with depression, and explained 85.1% of the variance in depressive symptoms (R2 = 0.851, p < 0.05).Conclusion: The relationship between LUTS and depressive symptoms may be mediated by the negative IPs, including consequences, concern and emotions. Clinicians should not only focus on the LUTS but also on the IPs to improve depressive symptoms among BPH patients.Keywords: lower urinary tract symptom, illness perceptions, benign prostatic hyperplasia, depressionYang LChen XLiu ZSun WYu DTang HZhang ZDove Medical Pressarticlelower urinary tract symptomillness perceptionsbenign prostatic hyperplasiadepressionMedicine (General)R5-920ENInternational Journal of General Medicine, Vol Volume 14, Pp 9297-9306 (2021) |
