OBJECTIVE
To identify the factors associated with quality of life in patients with acromegaly with follow-up at the referral service in neuroendocrinology of the state of Maranhão, northeast Brazil.
METHODS
The Acromegaly Quality of Life Questionnaire (Acro-QoL) was used. Factors independently associated with quality of life were identified using multivariate linear regression, with values < 0.05 considered significant.
RESULTS
The multivariate linear regression analysis indicated a positive association between being integrated into the job market and quality of life scores in the overall domain ( = 0.288, = 0.003), psychological domain ( = 0.291, = 0.032), and personal relationship domain ( = 0.314, = 0.019). We also observed a positive association with income and the quality of life scores in all domains as follows: overall domain ( = 0.037, = 0.003), physical domain ( = 0.988, = 0.001), psychological domain ( = 0.342, = 0.008), physical appearance domain ( = 0.270, = 0.049), and personal relationship domain ( = 0.315, = 0.012).
CONCLUSION
For patients with acromegaly living in one of the least developed regions of Brazil, integration into the job market and a higher income were associated with a better quality of life.
目的
确定巴西东北部马拉尼昂州神经内分泌转诊服务机构随访的肢端肥大症患者生活质量的相关因素。
方法
采用肢端肥大症生活质量问卷（Acro-QoL）。使用多元线性回归确定与生活质量独立相关的因素，P值<0.05被认为具有统计学意义。
结果
多元线性回归分析表明，融入就业市场与总体领域（P = 0.288，P = 0.003）、心理领域（P = 0.291，P = 0.032）和人际关系领域（P = 0.314，P = 0.019）的生活质量得分呈正相关。我们还观察到收入与各领域生活质量得分呈正相关，如下所示：总体领域（P = 0.037，P = 0.003）、身体领域（P = 0.988，P = 0.001）、心理领域（P = 0.342，P = 0.008）、外貌领域（P = 0.270，P = 0.049）和人际关系领域（P = 0.315，P = 0.012）。
结论
对于生活在巴西最不发达地区之一的肢端肥大症患者，融入就业市场和较高收入与更好的生活质量相关。
