We examined biopsychosocial predictors of symptoms of depression in women with endometriosis. The sample consisted of 202 women with endometriosis who completed a battery of measures including a demographic questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory, Stellenbosch Endometriosis Quality of life Menstrual characteristics subscale, Short form health survey Physical functioning subscale, and three modular components of the Endometriosis Health Profile 30, namely the Sexual Relationships, Feelings about the Medical Profession, and Feelings about Infertility modules. About 43.1% of the sample reported moderate to severe symptoms of depression. Physical functioning, feelings about the medical profession and sexual relationships were significant predictors of symptoms of depression. The identification of these predictors may enable researchers and practitioners to identify patients to be screened for depression, e.g., patients who report sub-optimal physical functioning, negative feelings about the medical profession and difficult sexual relationships.
我们研究了子宫内膜异位症女性抑郁症状的生物心理社会预测因素。样本包括202名患有子宫内膜异位症的女性，她们完成了一系列测评，包括一份人口统计学调查问卷、贝克抑郁量表、斯泰伦博斯子宫内膜异位症生活质量月经特征子量表、简短健康调查问卷身体功能子量表，以及子宫内膜异位症健康概况30的三个模块组件，即性关系、对医疗行业的感受和对不孕症的感受模块。约43.1%的样本报告有中度至重度抑郁症状。身体功能、对医疗行业的感受和性关系是抑郁症状的显著预测因素。识别这些预测因素可能使研究人员和从业者能够识别出需要进行抑郁症筛查的患者，例如那些报告身体功能欠佳、对医疗行业有负面感受以及性关系困难的患者。
