Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between the life quality and social supports in patients with hepatolenticular degeneration(HLD).Methods The Social Support Scale(SSRS)and the Quality of Life Scale(WHOQOL-100)were used for the investigation among 30 HLD patients as HLD group and 30 healthy people as the control group so as to study the correlation between the quality of life of HLD patients and the social supports.Results The total score on the quality of life in HLD group was significantly lower than that of the control group(273.60±15.24 vs.345.53±2.70,P<0.01),so it was with all the items of the quality of life scale.The total score on the social supports of the HLD group was significantly lower than the control group(35.73±1.72 vs.45.50±1.68,P<0.01),so it was with all the items of the social supports(all P<0.01).The total score on the quality of life together with the items was positively correlated with that of the total score on the social support(P<0.01 or P<0.05).Conclusions The quality of life and social support for the HLD patients is significantly lower than those for healthy people.Their quality of life is positively related with the social supports,which means the more social support they get,the better their quality of life is.
