阿联酋大学生症状性干眼症的行为和文化决定因素
Behavioral and cultural determinants of symptomatic dry eye disease among university students in the UAE.
摘要(中文译文)
本研究旨在评估阿联酋大学生中症状性干眼病（DED）的患病率及其相关危险因素。通过在线谷歌调查，使用经过验证的眼表疾病指数（OSDI）问卷对654名参与者进行了横断面研究。该调查评估了DED的患病率以及人口统计学和行为文化风险因素。采用Kruskal-Wallis检验分析组间差异。Spearman的等级相关性评估了OSDI评分与定量变量之间的关联。该研究揭示了显著的性别差异，女性的OSDI得分高于男性。吸烟行为与OSDI评分、日常吸烟者和在室内环境中吸烟的人密切相关。在吸烟类型中，Dokha和Mouassal水管用户的OSDI中位数得分最高。年使用量较短的用户的眼部美容实践得分较高，而有效的清洁方法，如肥皂和水或清洁霜，得分较低。延长屏幕时间和延长学习时间与OSDI评分呈正相关。症状性DED在阿联酋大学生中非常普遍。这些发现强调了有针对性的认识和预防策略的必要性，以减轻这一人群中的DED风险因素。
Abstract
This study aims to estimate the prevalence of symptomatic Dry Eye Disease (DED) and its associated risk factors among university students in the UAE. A cross-sectional study was conducted among 654 participants using the validated Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) questionnaire, distributed via an online Google survey. The survey assessed the prevalence of DED along with demographic and behavioral-cultural risk factors. Kruskal-Wallis test was employed to analyze group differences. Spearman's rank correlation evaluated associations between OSDI scores and quantitative variables. The study revealed significant gender differences, with females reporting higher OSDI scores than males. Smoking behaviors were strongly associated with OSDI scores, with daily smokers and those smoking in indoor environments. Among smoking types, Dokha and Mouassal waterpipe users exhibited the highest median OSDI scores. Eye cosmetic practices with users of shorter annual usage reported higher scores, while effective cleansing methods, such as soap and water or cleansing creams, were associated with lower scores. Prolonged screen time and extended study hours were positively correlated with OSDI scores. Symptomatic DED is highly prevalent among UAE university students. These findings underscore the need for targeted awareness and prevention strategies to mitigate DED risk factors within this population.
