Risk Factors of Anxiety and Depression in Patients With Herpes Zoster Neuralgia

August 23, 2024 updated by: Wei Mei, Huazhong University of Science and Technology

Risk Factors Analysis of Anxiety and Depression in Patients With Herpes Zoster Neuralgia and Characteristics of Serum Biomarkers and Functional Brain Magnetic Resonance Changes

The goal of this observational study is to explore risk factors of anxiety and depression in patients with herpes zoster neuralgia, and the changes of certain serum biomarkers and functional brain magnetic resonance images of these patients.

Conditions

Detailed Description

Patients with herpes zoster neuralgia will be recruited and take Hospital anxiety depression rating scale (Hospital anxiety and 'scale, HADS) evaluation. According to the HADS Scores, patients will be divided into depression group and no depression, or anxiety group and no anxiety group. The clinical data the of two groups will be collected and statistically analyzed to explore the risk factors of anxiety and depression, including the changes of serum biomarkers and functional brain magnetic resonance imaging in patients with herpes zoster neuralgia accompanying anxiety or depression.
