The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of low back pain in the postmenopausal period and the relationship between low back pain and emotional state, sleep and quality of life.
This cross-sectional study was conducted with 368 postmenopausal women between 40 and 65 years old. The frequency and severity of low back pain were recorded for all participants, as well as depressive symptoms and anxiety, quality of life and sleep quality.
90.2% of the participants reported low back pain. As low back pain severity increased, it was found that depression, anxiety levels, NHP and PSQI total scores increased as well (p= 0.0001). Significant positive correlations were found between pain intensity and outcome measures, except for sleep duration and habitual sleep efficiency (p< 0.01).
A great majority of women experience postmenopausal low back pain, which causes significant problems that negatively affect their quality of life, emotional state and sleep quality.
本研究旨在探讨绝经后腰痛的发生率，以及腰痛与情绪状态、睡眠和生活质量之间的关系。
本横断面研究纳入了 368 名年龄在 40 至 65 岁之间的绝经后女性。所有参与者均记录腰痛的频率和严重程度，以及抑郁症状和焦虑、生活质量和睡眠质量。
90.2%的参与者报告腰痛。随着腰痛严重程度的增加，发现抑郁、焦虑水平、NHP 和 PSQI 总分也随之增加（p=0.0001）。疼痛强度与除睡眠时间和习惯性睡眠效率外的所有结果指标之间存在显著正相关（p<0.01）。
大多数女性经历绝经后腰痛，这会导致严重问题，对其生活质量、情绪状态和睡眠质量产生负面影响。
