Summary: | Starting from the statement that in the onset of the psycho-somatic disorders an important role is played by
psychological factors and the personality of the patient together with cardiovascular risk factors, we believe that it is
important to highlight and correlate all the possible aspects. Aim: The objectives of the study are to stress the differences
in the structure of personality between the patients with arterial hypertension (AHT) and depression and the ones
diagnosed only with depression syndrome. Material and methods: the 200 patients studied were divided in two groups:
100 patients with depression and 100 with depression + AHT. Results: After processing the data obtained by anamnesis
and questionnaires focused on the individual characteristics of the patients, we observed that the group diagnosed with
depression and AHT has a significantly increased level in dynamism, domination, perseverance and meticulosity while
the group with depression has a significantly increased level of cooperation, amiability and openness for culture.
Conclusions: There are important differences between the two study groups regarding their personality traits. |
