Abstract:
Background: Patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) often complicated with anxiety. Recognizing effectively the risk factors of anxiety is helpful for the precise treatment with anti-anxiety drug, which can improve the prognosis of patients. Aims: To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors of FD patients with anxiety. Methods: A total of 295 FD patients from June 2014 to September 2014 at the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were enrolled. Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale was used to evaluate the anxiety in FD patients. Risk factors of anxiety in FD patients were analyzed. Results: In this study, the incidence of anxiety was 8.1% (24/295) in FD patients. Univariate analysis showed that age, disease duration, marriage status, psychosis history and history of administration of psychotropic drugs were related to the anxiety in FD patients (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that disease duration, marriage status and psychosis history were the risk factors for anxiety in FD patients (P<0.05). Conclusions: Long disease duration, incomplete marriage, and psychosis history are the risk factors for anxiety in FD patients, routine anxiety screening should be carried out in these patients.
