Abstract:
Objective:To explore the current status and influencing factors of quality of life in patients with thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) .Methods:From January to July 2024, convenience sampling was used to select TAO patients of the Department of Ophthalmology of Peking University Third Hospital as research subjects. The patients were surveyed using the General Information Questionnaire, Graves' Ophthalmopathy Quality of Life Questionnaire (GO-QOL), Negative Physical Self Scale-Appearance (NPSS-A), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS), and Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS). Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between GO-QOL scores and NPSS-A, SAS, SDS, and PSSS scores. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors influencing the quality of life of TAO patients.Results:A total of 234 questionnaires were distributed, and 203 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 86.75%. The GO-QOL visual function and social function dimensions scores of 203 TAO patients were [78.57 (50.00, 100.00) ] and [43.75 (18.75, 62.50) ], respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age, eye movement disorders, eyelid retraction, and disease grading, were the influencing factors of the visual function dimension of GO-QOL ( P<0.05). Age, social support, and body image were the influencing factors on the social function dimension of GO-QOL ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The quality of life of TAO patients is poor. Healthcare professionals should develop coping strategies based on factors affecting different dimensions of quality of life, so as to improve patients' quality of life.
