Analysis of Risk Factors for Negative Emotions in the Perioperative Period in Patients with Benign Ovarian Cysts Treated Laparoscopically and Their Impact on Prognosis: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

Background: Ovarian cysts are common diseases among women. They might affect reproductive function in severe cases, and thus, patients with ovarian cysts often have negative emotions. Purpose: In this study, we elucidated the risk factors for negative emotions in patients with ovarian cysts during the perioperative period and their impact on prognosis. Methods: From August 2019 to August 2021, we retrospectively included 330 female patients with pathologically diagnosed benign ovarian cysts as potential participants in this study. Based on the established inclusion and exclusion criteria, 308 patients were finally included. We performed the Results: In total, 47 patients (15.3%) had negative emotions during the perioperative period. The results of the binary logistic regression analysis showed that the menstrual status (OR = 3.099, P = 0.028), intraoperative blood loss (OR = 1.043, P = 0.029), recurrence (OR = 3.691, P = 0.047), and several other factors were independent risk factors for negative emotions. The results of the linear regression analysis showed that the presence of combined negative affect (P = 0.000), recurrence (P = 0.010), postoperative IL-2 (P = 0.035), and several other factors were independent risk factors for patient prognosis. Conclusion: In clinical work, identifying the independent risk factors for negative emotions and enhancing their behavioral awareness and self-efficacy is necessary to improve their quality of life after surgery. Meanwhile, we will continue our exploration of the causes of negative emotions in patients in the future.
