“…Brochmann et al 41 found that BMI was not associated with anxiety or depression for patients with some cancers. However, Brook et al 42 identified higher BMI as an independent risk factor for the development of incisional hernia at a previous stoma site. Interestingly, another study found that among patients with cancer receiving chemotherapy, patients who are overweight have lower mortality and hospitalization rates than individuals without overweight or obesity 43 …”

OBJECTIVE:To identify variables that may predict psychological distress in patients with an enterostomy. METHODS:Investigators recruited 77 patients with a stoma from a stoma clinic according to the inclusion criteria. Patients' psychological distress was assessed with the Distress Thermometer (DT) tool, and their personality type was determined by the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. Researchers also collected demographic and disease-related data. Predictive values were estimated using multiple regression analyses. RESULTS:The mean DT score of all patients was 5.94 (SD, 1.81), and approximately 85.7% consistently suffered from psychological distress. Being unmarried and having peristomal complications were associated with higher psychological distress, whereas having a monthly income 5,000 ¥ or more was associated with lower levels of distress. Moreover, patients with a melancholic personality type tended to have higher DT scores, which could act as a strong independent predictor for psychological distress. CONCLUSIONS:The majority of patients with a stoma endured moderate to severe psychological distress during follow-up care. Exploring the related factors that predict the levels of psychological distress could enable clinicians to identify at-risk patients as early as possible and thus provide optimal care for improving patients' quality of life.
