It was suggested that fatigue is one of characteristics of panic disorder. Fatigue was assessed in 360 patients with panic disorder using the Japanese version of the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI-J). The scores for general fatigue and reduced activity were significantly higher in the patients than in the controls. These tendencies were also observed in men when the subject group was differentiated according to sex, but not in women. In contrast, the trend for higher score for physical fatigue was observed only in the female patients. Thus, the present study suggests that the characteristics of fatigue vary with sex in panic disorder.
有人提出疲劳是惊恐障碍的特征之一。使用日语版多维疲劳量表(MFI-J)对360例惊恐障碍患者的疲劳情况进行了评估。患者的总体疲劳和活动减少得分显著高于对照组。当根据性别对受试者组进行区分时,男性也观察到了这些趋势,但女性没有。相反,仅在女性患者中观察到身体疲劳得分较高的趋势。因此,本研究表明惊恐障碍中疲劳的特征因性别而异。
