to analyze the association between common mental disorder and quality of life in older adults.
cross-sectional study developed with a total of 721 Brazilian older adults between July and October 2020. Participants completed three instruments to assess bio sociodemographic, mental health and quality of life data. Data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis H, Chi-square, Pearson correlation and multivariate linear regression tests, considering a 95% confidence interval (p < 0.05) for all analyses.
among the four components that assess common mental disorder, only three remained associated with negative coefficients with the participants' general quality of life: depressive-anxious mood (β = -2.050; [CI95% = -2.962 - -1.137]; p < 0.001); decrease in vital energy (β = -1.460; [CI95% = -2.197 - -0.723]; p < 0.001) and depressive thoughts (β = -4.124; [CI95% = -5.211- -3.038]; p < 0.001).
most components that assess common mental disorders are negatively associated with quality of life, that is, the increase in these disorders resulted in a reduction in the quality of life of older adults.
分析老年人常见精神障碍与生活质量之间的关系。
这是一项于 2020 年 7 月至 10 月间开展的横断面研究,共纳入了 721 名巴西老年人。参与者完成了 3 项评估生物社会人口学、心理健康和生活质量数据的工具。使用 Mann-Whitney U、Kruskal-Wallis H、卡方、Pearson 相关和多元线性回归检验对数据进行分析,所有分析均考虑了 95%置信区间(p < 0.05)。
在评估常见精神障碍的四个组成部分中,只有三个部分与参与者的总体生活质量呈负相关,具有负向系数:抑郁焦虑情绪(β = -2.050;[95%CI95% = -2.962 - -1.137];p < 0.001)、活力下降(β = -1.460;[95%CI95% = -2.197 - -0.723];p < 0.001)和抑郁思维(β = -4.124;[95%CI95% = -5.211- -3.038];p < 0.001)。
评估常见精神障碍的大多数组成部分与生活质量呈负相关,即这些障碍的增加导致老年人生活质量下降。
