Abstract

Aim: Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) patients
experience recurrent pain attacks and up to 30% of these become chronic pain.
There is known to be a relationship between chronic pain and depression and
other psychological problems. Therefore, Sickle Cell Disease patients often
experience a series of social and psychiatric problems. The aim of this study to
determine the frequency and severity of premenstrual syndrome in women aged ≥18
years with sickle cell disease and to compare these values with healthy women.



Materials and Methods: This case control study was conducted from January 2018 to March 2018. The
data were collected using a questionnaire of 21 items and the Premenstrual
Syndrome Scale (PMSS).
Statistical analysis was
performed using SPSS 21 software.



Results: The study included 50 patients aged >18 years who were diagnosed with
sickle cell anemia at the
University
Hospital and
control group of 50 subjects
with no chronic disease.
Premenstrual Syndrome
(PMS) according to DSM-5 was determined in 34 (68%) of the case group and 39
(78%) of the control group (p=0,26). Mean depressive effect subscale score was
15.64±6.56 in the sickle cell anemia group while, it was 19.48±6.67 in control
group (p=0,05).



Conclusion:



Although PMS frequency and symptom severity in women with SCD were
similar with normal population,
the depressive effect
subscale scores were lower in SCD group. This results’ cause could be attributed
to PMS symptoms being perceived as less severe compared to the pain experienced
in sickle cell crises.


Amaç:
Orak Hücre Hastalığı (OHH)’nda, hastalar tekrarlayan ağrı atakları geçirir ve
bunların %30'u kadarında kronik ağrı gelişir. Kronik ağrı ile depresyon ve
diğer psikolojik problemler arasında bir ilişki olduğu bilinmektedir. Bu
nedenle Orak Hücre Hastalığı hastaları sıklıkla bir dizi sosyal ve psikiyatrik
problem yaşayabilirler. Bu çalışmasnın amacı; Orak Hücre Hastalığı olan 18 yaş
ve üstü kadınlarda premenstrüel sendromun (PMS) sıklığını ve ciddiyetini
belirleyerek sağlıklı kadınlarla karşılaştırmaktır.



Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bir vaka kontrol çalışması olarak Ocak 2018- Mart 2018 arasında
yapılmıştır. Veriler 21 maddeden oluşan bir anket formu ve Premenstrüel Sendrom
Ölçeği (PMSS) kullanılarak elde edildi.
 İstatistiksel analiz SPSS 21 yazılımı
kullanılarak yapıldı.



Bulgular:
Çalışmaya üniversite hastanesinde orak hücreli anemi tanısı konan ve 18
yaşından büyük 50 hasta ve kronik hastalığı olmayan 50 kişiden oluşan kontrol
grubu dahil edildi. DSM-5'e göre PMS; vaka grubunun 34'ünde (%68) ve kontrol
grubunun 39'unda (%78) tespit edildi (p = 0,26). Orak hücreli anemi grubunda
ortalama depresif etki alt ölçek skoru 15.64 ± 6.56 iken, kontrol grubunda
19.48 ± 6.67 idi (p = 0,05).



Sonuç: OHH'li
kadınlarda PMS sıklığı ve semptom şiddeti normal popülasyonla benzer olmasına
rağmen, depresif etki alt ölçek puanları SCD grubunda anlamlı olarak daha düşük
olmasının nedeni; orak hücre krizlerinde yaşanan ağrıya kıyasla, PMS semptomlarının
daha az şiddetli algılanması olabilir.
