目的探讨灼口综合征(BMS)患者的焦虑、抑郁状态与体液中炎症因子的相关性,并基于临床数据形成一个初步的评估模型。
方法纳入符合纳入标准且不符合排除标准的41例BMS患者(BMS组)及12名健康对照者(健康对照组),2组受试者均自2022年10月至2024年2月于上海交通大学医学院附属第九人民医院口腔黏膜病科门诊招募,通过视觉模拟评分量表(VAS)评估41例BMS患者的疼痛程度,焦虑自评量表(SAS)和抑郁自评量表(SDS)评估患者的焦虑和抑郁状态;采用Luminex 200 TM系统和酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)法分别检测2组受试者唾液和血清中脑源性神经营养因子(BDNF)、干扰素-γ(IFN-γ)、白细胞介素(IL)-1β(IL-1β)、IL-6、IL-8、肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)的浓度。采用χ 2检验、独立样本 t检验、方差分析、Spearman相关性分析、多元线性回归对结果数据进行分析。
结果41例BMS患者的VAS得分为(3.56±1.90)分,48.8%(20/41)和41.5%(17/41)的患者分别表现为轻度、中度疼痛,重度疼痛者仅占7.3%(3/41)。41例BMS患者中,焦虑和(或)抑郁者占61.0%(25/41),其中焦虑合并抑郁者占39.0%(16/41),焦虑(非抑郁)患者占9.8%(4/41),抑郁(非焦虑)患者占12.2%(5/41)。BMS组患者血清和唾液中IFN-γ、TNF-α浓度均显著高于健康对照组(均 P<0.05),血清中BDNF浓度显著低于健康对照组( P<0.01),唾液中BDNF浓度显著高于健康对照组( P<0.001)。BMS组患者血清中TNF-α与IFN-γ、IL-1β、IL-6呈正相关(β=0.803,β=0.812,β=0.592;均 P<0.01),唾液中TNF-α与SAS、SDS评分均呈显著负相关(β=-0.325,β=-0.321;均 P<0.05)。SAS评分与唾液中TNF-α浓度呈线性相关(SAS=51.374-1.154×唾液TNF-α);唾液TNF-α浓度与唾液IFN-γ、IL-1β均呈线性相关(唾液TNF-α=2.408+0.281×唾液IFN-γ+0.002×唾液IL-1β)。
结论本研究初步探索了基于炎症因子和心理评分的BMS临床评估模型,为BMS的后续研究和模型优化提供了探索性框架。
ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between anxiety, depression, and inflammatory markers in the body fluids of patients with burning mouth syndrome (BMS), creating a preliminary assessment model based on clinical data.
MethodsForty-one BMS patients were recruited according to the predefined inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria from the Department of Oral Medicine, Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine between December 2021 and September 2023, along with 12 healthy controls. The pain intensity of the 41 patients was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS). Meanwhile, anxiety and depression were assessed using the Zung self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and the Zung self-rating depression scale (SDS). The concentrations of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in saliva and serum were measured using the Luminex 200 TM system and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Statistical analyses were performed using the Chi-square test, independent samples t-test, ANOVA, Spearman′s correlation analysis, and multiple linear regression, respectively.
ResultsThe VAS score for the 41 BMS patients was (3.56±1.90), with 48.8% (20/41) and 41.5% (17/41) of patients experiencing mild and moderate pain, respectively. Only 7.3% (3/41) of patients had severe pain. Among the 41 BMS patients, 61.0% (25/41) exhibited anxiety and/or depression, in whom 39.0% (16/41) had both anxiety and depression, 9.8% (4/41) experienced anxiety without depression, and 12.2% (5/41) had depression without anxiety. The concentrations of IFN-γ and TNF-α in the serum and saliva of BMS patients were significantly higher than those in healthy controls (all P<0.05). In contrast, the BDNF concentration in serum was significantly lower in BMS patients than in healthy participants ( P<0.01), but was significantly higher in saliva ( P<0.001). Serum TNF-α was positively correlated with IFN-γ, IL-1β, and IL-6 (β=0.803, β=0.812, β=0.592; all P<0.01), while saliva TNF-α was negatively correlated with both anxiety and depression (β=-0.325, β=-0.321; all P<0.05). SAS scores were linearly correlated with saliva TNF-α concentrations (SAS=51.374-1.154×saliva TNF-α); saliva TNF-α concentrations were linearly correlated with saliva IFN-γ and IL-1β (saliva TNF-α=2.408+0.281×saliva IFN-γ+0.002×saliva IL-1β).
ConclusionsThis study provides a preliminary exploration of a clinical assessment model for BMS based on inflammatory markers and psychological scores, offering an exploratory framework for further research and optimization of the model.
