Abstract
Aim. To study and compare indicators of quality of life in schoolchildren with abdominal pain in the assessment of children and their parents in the ethnic populations of the Republic of Tyva.
Material and Methods. In the Republic of Tyva, schoolchildren aged 7-18 years of the indigenous population (312 Mongoloids - Tuvans) and alien population (136 Caucasians) were examined using a cross-sectional method. Gastroenterological complaints and demographic information were recorded. To assess the quality of life of children, adapted Russian parent (CHQ-PF28) and child (CHQ-PF45) versions of the Child Health Questionnaire (CHQ) were used. The questionnaire allows you to assess various areas of a child’s life. The studies were approved by the ethics committee and the consent of the patients (their parents) was obtained.
Results. A decrease in the quality of life was established in schoolchildren of both ethnic populations in the presence of abdominal pain, both in their own assessment and by their parents. This applies to the general state of health, and specifically to the state of physical, mental health, as well as the emotional sphere. At the same time, in the Tuvan population, when schoolchildren assessed their quality of life, in contrast to their parents, a decrease was noted on scales related specifically to indicators of mental and physical health. It is noteworthy that the decrease in quality of life indicators in the assessment of children is more significant than in the assessment of parents, and affects a wide range of questionnaire scales in both ethnic populations of schoolchildren in Tyva. At the same time, children with abdominal pain are severely limited in communication with peers, both due to emotional and physical problems, and often experience a constant feeling of anxiety and depression. The latter is not properly reflected in the results of the analysis of parental quality of life questionnaires.
Conclusion. The peculiarities of the frequency of family deprivation in ethnic populations have been established.
