The Mean

Aim This study was conducted to examine spiritual wellbeing and its relationship with perceived stress, anxiety and depression among cardiac patients. Methods The present descriptive study was conducted on 120 patients with cardiac diseases. The Perceived Stress Scale, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and Paloutzian and Ellison Spiritual Wellbeing Questionnaire were used for data collection. Results Of 120 patients, 79 were diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome, 30 were diagnosed with heart failure, and the rest were diagnosed with cardiac arrhythmia (mostly atrial fibrillation). The mean scores for depression, anxiety and stress in the studied patients were 10.1, 9.9, and 19.5, respectively. The mean score of the total spiritual wellbeing was 86.2. Results showed an inverse and significant relationship between spiritual wellbeing with perceived stress (R2=−0.535, P=0.001), anxiety (R2=−0.389, P<0.001), and depression (R2=−0.388, P<0.001). Conclusions Improving cardiac patients’ spiritual wellbeing should be recognised as an essential part of holistic care and an effective strategy in reducing depression, anxiety and stress among cardiac patients.

Kognitive Funktionen

Die in mehreren Studien gefundenen kognitiven Störungen bei Tumorpatienten nach Chemotherapie werden zumeist mit der Zytostatikaneurotoxizität assoziiert. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird der Zusammenhang von Angst, Depression und Posttraumatischer Belastungsstörung mit der kognitiven Leistungsfähigkeit bei Frauen mit Mammakarzinom untersucht. Insgesamt wurden 76 Brustkrebspatientinnen fünf Jahre nach Abschluss der onkologischen Behandlung mit neuropsychologischen Testverfahren sowie mit der Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale – Deutsche Version (HADS-D) und der Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist – Civilian Version (PCL-C) untersucht: 23 nach Standard- und 24 nach Hochdosistherapie sowie 29 nach Brustoperation und Strahlentherapie als Vergleichsgruppe. Signifikante Zusammenhänge sind vor allem zwischen kognitiven Funktionen und Intrusionssymptomen einer Posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung (PTBS) festzustellen. Bei Patientinnen nach Standardtherapie weisen Intrusionen der PTBS einen moderaten Zusammenhang mit der globalen kognitiven Beeinträchtigung auf. Die Ergebnisse der Studie deuten auf multidimensionale Einfluss- und moderierende Faktoren bei der Entwicklung kognitiver Defizite bei Brustkrebspatientinnen nach onkologischer Therapie hin.

Gießener Beschwerdebogen

Zusammenfassung. Der Whiteley-Index ist ein Instrument zur Erfassung von Hypochondrie. Für diesen Fragebogen wurde eine Normierungs- und Validierungsstudie anhand einer bevölkerungsrepräsentativen Stichprobe (n = 1996) durchgeführt. Hypochondrie zeigt eine etwa lineare Altersabhängigkeit (r = .24). Frauen haben in allen Altersstufen höhere Hypochondrie-Ausprägungen als Männer. Für verschiedene Alters- und Geschlechtsgruppen werden Normwerte bereit gestellt. Die in der Literatur beschriebene dreidimensionale Struktur des Whiteley-Index (Krankheitsängste, somatische Beschwerden und Krankheitsüberzeugung) konnte mit gewissen Einschränkungen bestätigt werden. Validierungsuntersuchungen mit anderen Instrumenten (Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory, Gießener Beschwerdebogen, Screening für Somatoforme Störungen und Nottingham Health Profile) zeigten, dass eine auf sieben Items reduzierte Kurzskala der Gesamtskala mit 14 Items ebenbürtig ist. Für differenzierte Analysen wird jedoch die Originalskala empfohlen. Durch die angegebenen Normwerte ist es künftig besser möglich, Patientengruppen verschiedener Alters- und Geschlechtsverteilungen untereinander oder auch mit Stichproben der Normalbevölkerung zu vergleichen.

Anxiety Depression

Background: Studies have shown that caregivers of the persons with the neurological illness have high levels of psychological distress, depression and caregiver’s burden. The aim of the study was to find out anxiety, depression and caregiver’s burden among the caregivers of persons with neurological illness (PWNI). Method: Thirty caregivers of PWNI attending the Centre of Rehabilitation Sciences, LGB Regional Institute of Mental Health, Tezpur, Assam were selected using purposive sampling technique for the present study. Socio-demographic and clinical data sheet, Zarit Burden Interview Scale and The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used. Results: The results shown that in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, 26.6% of the caregivers' scores were in the abnormal range in the domain of depression. While in the domain of anxiety, 16.6% scored in the abnormal range. In Zarit Burden of Scale, 13.3% of the caregivers were having little or no burden, 26.6% of the caregivers were having mild to moderate level of burden, 20% were having moderate to severe burden and 30% were having a severe burden of care. Care burden has significant positive correlation with depression (r= .124, p≤ 0.01 and anxiety (r= .124, p≤ 0.05). Conclusion: Caregivers of PWNI have been found to be at higher risk of mental health problems and care burden. The importance of addressing the burden of caregivers involved in the care of PWNI need to be taken into consideration while providing treatment and rehabilitation of PWNI.     Keywords: Anxiety, depression, burden, neurological illness

Abstract Background The aim of this investigation was to examine the longitudinal association between change in insomnia status and the development of anxiety and depression in the general population. Methods A survey was mailed to 5000 randomly selected individuals (aged 18–70 years) in two Swedish counties. After 6 months, a follow-up survey was sent to those (n = 2333) who answered the first questionnaire. The follow-up survey was completed by 1887 individuals (80.9%). The survey consisted of questions indexing insomnia symptomatology, socio-demographic parameters, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Change in insomnia status was assessed by determining insomnia at the two time-points and then calculating a change index reflecting incidence (from non-insomnia to insomnia), remission (from insomnia to non-insomnia), or status quo (no change). Multivariate binary logistic regression analyses were used to examine the aim. Results Incident insomnia was significantly associated with an increased risk for the development of new cases of both anxiety (OR = 0.32, p < .05) and depression (OR = 0.43, p < .05) 6 months later. Incident insomnia emerged also as significantly associated with an elevated risk for the persistence of depression (OR = 0.30, p < .05), but not for anxiety. Conclusions This study extends previous research in that incidence in insomnia was shown to independently increase the risk for the development of anxiety and depression as well as for the maintenance of depression. The findings imply that insomnia may be viewed as a dynamic risk factor for anxiety and depression, which might have implications for preventative work.
