This study examined the effects of minor stress on variations in biochemical indices of dietary compliance in hemodialysis patients. Subjects completed the Schedule of Recent Events, the Weekly Stress Inventory, and the Social Support Questionnaire. In addition, two biochemical measures of dietary compliance were obtained from the patients' medical charts. Multiple regression analysis, with baseline levels of compliance and the relatively stable influence of major life events and social support controlled for, revealed that minor stress was significantly predictive of changes in dietary compliance. The results suggest that minor stress may affect health status in the chronically ill by reducing compliance behaviors.
本研究考察了轻微压力对血液透析患者饮食依从性生化指标变化的影响。研究对象完成了近期事件量表、每周压力量表和社会支持问卷。此外，从患者病历中获取了两项饮食依从性的生化指标。在控制了依从性的基线水平以及重大生活事件和社会支持的相对稳定影响后进行的多元回归分析表明，轻微压力能显著预测饮食依从性的变化。结果表明，轻微压力可能通过降低依从行为来影响慢性病患者的健康状况。
