The objective of the present study is to determine the somatosensory amplification, anxiety, and depression levels in patients with normal coronary arteries. Thirty-five patients with normal coronary arteries and 35 healthy individuals of similar age and gender as the patient group were included in the study. Somatosensory Amplification Scale (SSAS), Health Anxiety Inventory (HAI-18), Penn State Anxiety Scale (PSWQ), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were applied to all participants. Comparison of the patient group with the control group demonstrated that SSAS (22.7±8.2; 18.5±5.98; p=0.018), BAI (15.4±9.43; 9.4±7.3; p=0.004), BDI (24.9±13.5; 13.7±7.5; p<0.001), PSWQ (55.3±13.7; 33.8±6.7; p<0.001), and HAI-18 (18.8±8.7; 12.3±7.1; p=0.001) scores were statistically significantly higher in the patient group. Furthermore, a positive correlation was found between SSAS, BAI, BDI, PSWQ, and HAI-18 scores. It was found that concerns about disease prevailed in patients having normal coronary arteries, the patients continued to amplify their somatic sensations, and their anxiety and depression scores were higher than those of healthy individuals. Thus, the necessity of these interventions should be assessed in detail in the future.
本研究旨在确定正常冠状动脉患者的躯体感觉放大、焦虑和抑郁水平。将 35 例正常冠状动脉患者和 35 例与患者年龄和性别相匹配的健康个体纳入研究。所有参与者均接受躯体感觉放大量表（SSAS）、健康焦虑量表（HAI-18）、宾夕法尼亚州焦虑量表（PSWQ）、贝克焦虑量表（BAI）和贝克抑郁量表（BDI）评估。与对照组相比，患者组的 SSAS（22.7±8.2；18.5±5.98；p=0.018）、BAI（15.4±9.43；9.4±7.3；p=0.004）、BDI（24.9±13.5；13.7±7.5；p<0.001）、PSWQ（55.3±13.7；33.8±6.7；p<0.001）和 HAI-18（18.8±8.7；12.3±7.1；p=0.001）评分均显著升高。此外，SSAS、BAI、BDI、PSWQ 和 HAI-18 评分之间呈正相关。研究发现，正常冠状动脉患者对疾病的担忧普遍存在，患者继续放大其躯体感觉，且其焦虑和抑郁评分高于健康个体。因此，未来应详细评估这些干预措施的必要性。
