摘要: 目的 探讨A型肉毒毒素对中老年带状疱疹后神经痛(PHV)患者的疗效,及对其共病焦虑抑郁状态的影响。方法 选取2019年12月—2021年1月于徐州医科大学附属医院就诊的PHN患者,共100例。按照随机数字表法,将患者分为2组:A型肉毒素组(BTX-A组)和对照组(C组),每组50例。于治疗前(T0)、治疗后 1 周(T1)、4周(T2)、12周(T3)评估疼痛数字评分(NRS)、患者健康问卷抑郁量表(PHQ-9)评分、广泛性焦虑障碍量表(GAD-7)评分;治疗12周后评估2组患者总体睡眠质量评分(SQS)的改善情况。记录治疗后患者平均每日口服加巴喷丁的剂量、阿片类药物的使用情况和不良反应的发生率。结果 与T0相比,2组患者治疗后T1~T3时间点 NRS、GAD-7、PHQ-9评分均降低(P<0.05);与C组相比,BTX-A组治疗后各时间点 NRS、GAD-7和PHQ-9评分均明显改善,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。治疗12周后,BTX-A组患者SQS评分较C组明显改善(P<0.05)。2组患者口服加巴喷丁剂量比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),阿片类药物的使用率无统计学差异(P>0.05)。2组不良反应的发生率比较,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论 A型肉毒毒素能够缓解中老年PHN患者的疼痛,并在一定程度上改善焦虑抑郁症状。Abstract: Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of botulinum toxin A on middle-aged and elderly patients with postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) as well as anxiety and depression. Methods A total of 100 PHN patients who were admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from December 2019 to January 2021 were enrolled. According to the random number table method, they were divided into two groups (n=50): a botulinum toxin A group (group BTX-A) and a control group (group C). Both groups were compared for their numeric rating scale (NRS) scores, patient health questionnaire depression scale (PHQ-9) scores, and generalized anxiety disorder scale (GAD-7) scores before treatment (T0), one week after treatment (T1), four weeks after treatment (T2), and 12 weeks after treatment (T3). After 12 weeks of treatment, the improvement of the overall sleep quality scores (SQS) in both groups was assessed. The doses of daily oral gabapentin and opioids, and the incidence of adverse reactions were recorded. Results Compared with those at T0, both groups presented decreases in the scores of NRS, GAD-7 and PHQ-9 at T1 to T3 after treatment. The scores of NRS, GAD-7 and PHQ-9 in group BTX-A were significantly improved compared with those in group C at each time points after treatment (P<0.05). After 12 weeks of treatment, group BTX-A showed significantly improved SQS scores compared with group C (P<0.05). There was no difference in the doses of oral gabapentin and the use of opioids (P>0.05). No statistical difference was found in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions Botulinum toxin A can relieve pain in middle-aged and elderly patients with PHN, and improve anxiety and depression to a certain extent.
