Abstract:
Objective To investigate the characteristics of quality of life (QoL) and self-awareness in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty (ICPP) and the correlation between QoL and the self-awareness.Methods The inventory of subjective life quality (ISLQ) and Children's self-concept scale (PHCSS) were employed to evaluate the level of QoL and self-awareness in 24 ICPP girls with ICPP (ICPP group) and 24 normal control girls (control group),and the correlation analysis between QoL and the self-awareness in the ICPP group was made.Results The score of overall (70.85±14.11 vs 80.21±6.07) and emotion component satisfaction (62.61± 12.91 vs 73.74±5.02),dimensions satisfaction on school life (5.80± 1.44 vs 6.69±0.65),depression experience (6.55± 1.14 vs 7.29±0.45),anxiety experience (5.93± 1.35 vs 6.96±0.82) and physical emotion (6.33±1.17 vs 7.12±0.83) in ICPP group was respectively lower than control group (P<0.05).There was no difference in cognitive component between control group and ICPP group,as well as for other dimension satisfaction.Moreover,the score in total self-awareness,physical appearance and anxiety in ICPP group was respectively lower than those in control group (P<0.05).In addition,a positive correlation was found between the subjective QoL and the children self-concept in ICPP group (P<0.01).Conclusion The girls with ICPP show a lower subjective QoL and self assessment than normal girls.It is important to take care of the psychological feature of the girls with ICPP to improve the self-assessment and overall QoL during the medication.
