Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To assess health related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with kidney stones and to predict risk factors for reduced HRQOL in the patients by the Chinese version of Wisconsin stone quality of life questionnaire (C-WISQOL). METHODS: coefficient was used to verify the internal consistency of C-WISQOL, Spearman ' s rho coefficient was used to verify the criterion validity between C-WISQOL and SF-36 questionnaire, confirmatory factor analysis was used to verify the structural validity, convergent validity and discrimination validity of C-WISQOL, and univariate and multivariate analyses were used to explore the risk factors leading to the decline of HRQOL in the patients with kidney stones. RESULTS: < 0.001). CONCLUSION: C-WISQOL the questionnaire can be used to evaluate the HRQOL of patients with kidney stones with good reliability. The combination of MS, stone-related symptoms and UTI were independent risk factors for HRQOL reduction in the patients with renal stones.
