In addition, 8% of patients and 1% of controls suffered from mild stress; the level of stress had significant difference between the both groups (P=0.017). The score of QUALITY OF LIFE was 80.00±11.19 and 79.30±10.73 in patients and controls, respectively with no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.940).Conclusion: The prevalence of PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS was higher in patients.
