الوصف: | Background Research on patients with chronic illness has demonstrated that self-esteem is related to the reported level of physical restrictions, functional status and perceiption of symptom severity. Previous literature suggests that low self-esteem causes more negative affect for chronic disease patients than healthy populations. Objectives This study aims to evaluate the frequency of low self esteem in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and to identify factors influencing it. Methods It is a cross-sectional study including 103 patients with RA. The demographic characteristics of patients and the characteristics of RA were collected. Pain and fatigue were assessed using the analogic visual scale (0-100 mm), the disease's activity was evaluated by DAS-28 ESR, the functionnal disability by the arabic version of the health assessment questionnaire (HAQ), and the the psychological state by the arabic version of the questionnaire Hospital Anxiety and Depression (HAD). The level of self-esteem was measured using the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSES). Participants have reported their agreement, on a five-point Likert scale (0 = strongly disagree, 4 = strongly agree) on 10 statements concerning self-perceived aspects of self-esteem. Total scores range from 10-40. A low self esteem rate was defined by a general scroe less than 311. Results 103 patients were included with a mean age of 49.7±11.4 years and a female predominance (90 (87.4%)). The median of RA duration was 8.16 years [3.25 to 14.16]. The average DAS28 - ESR was 4.28±1.75, with a median HAQ 0.5 [0 -1.37]. 58 patients (56.3%) have low self esteem. Low self-esteem was significantly associated to a high activity of the RA (OR=1.652, IC95% [1.254-2.176], p |
