Full textAbstract:
Introduction Lifestyle behaviours (e.g. physical activity and dietary habits) play a major role in the well-known premature mortality caused by poor physical health in people with mental illness. There is increasing evidence for the efficacy of lifestyle interventions on both physical and mental health, and consensus about important factors for success (e.g. targeting multiple lifestyle behaviours). However, implementation remains challenging and there is little change in clinical care. Studies that include measures of fidelity (the extent to which an intervention is implemented as intended) are able to gain insight in variations in actual implementation, which may affect intended health outcomes. However, there is currently no suitable fidelity tool for our lifestyle intervention. Objectives A pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of a tool that assesses and monitors the implementation fidelity of a multidisciplinary lifestyle focused approach (MULTI+). Methods MULTI+ can be tailored to various psychiatric wards and consists of 10 essential components based on scientific evidence, existing guidelines and consensus in the field of ‘lifestyle psychiatry’. We developed a tool to assess the 10 components and thereby the implementation fidelity of MULTI+. Qualitative observational data about compliance to these components are collected in 45 psychiatric wards. Adherence is converted to a gradual score (0-50). A higher score indicates higher fidelity. Results Preliminary results show that the tool is feasible for use in clinical practice. Scores give insight in how various wards have implemented MULTI+. Conclusions These outcomes can be used to further improve and understand the implementation and effectiveness of lifestyle interventions. Disclosure No significant relationships.

Full textAbstract:
BackgroundHealthy lifestyles prevent cardiovascular disease and are increasingly recognized in relation to mental health but longitudinal studies are limited. We examined bi-directional associations between mood disorders and healthy lifestyles in a cohort followed for 5 years.MethodParticipants were aged 26–36 years at baseline (2004–2006) and 31–41 years at follow-up (2009–2011). At follow-up, lifetime mood disorders (depression or dysthymia) were retrospectively diagnosed with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. A five-item lifestyle score (comprising body mass index, non-smoking, alcohol consumption, leisure time physical activity and healthy diet) was measured at both time points. Linear and log multinomial regression determined if mood disorder before baseline predicted changes in lifestyle (n= 1041). Log binomial regression estimated whether lifestyle at baseline predicted new episodes of mood disorder (n= 1233). Covariates included age, sex, socio-economic position, parental and marital status, social support, major life events, cardiovascular disease history, and self-rated physical and mental health.ResultsA history of mood disorder before baseline predicted unfavourable trajectories of lifestyle over follow-up, including somewhat lower risk of improvement [relative risk (RR) 0.76, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.56–1.03] and greater risk of worsening (RR 1.46, 95% CI 0.99–2.15) of lifestyle independent of confounding factors. Higher lifestyle scores at baseline were associated with a 22% (RR 0.76, 95% CI 0.61–0.95) reduced risk of first episodes of mood disorder, independent of confounding factors.ConclusionsHealthy lifestyles and mood disorders are closely related. Our results suggest that healthy lifestyles may not only reduce cardiovascular disease but also promote mental health.

Full textAbstract:
As in all sectors of healthcare, socioeconomic status (SES) affects an individual’s ability to benefit from psychiatric care.Mood and anxiety disorders are the most common disorders for which psychiatric care is sought, and while there are options for effective treatments available, they are often accompanied by additional costs. Further to costs, issues with the heterogeneity of mental illness have led resarchers to explore other options for psychatric care. Nutritional psychiatry is an emerging field that uses dietary and nutritional approaches to target the gut-brain axis for the prevention and treatment of mental illness, including mood and axiety disorders. Nutritional psychiatry has been promoted as being an advantageous alternative to classic mental health treatments due to it’s broader accessibility, highlighting the lower costs associated with lifestyle changes than medication and psychotherapy. At a glance, this may appear accurate, but upon closer examination, may not be entirely true. Factors surrounding healthy eating, food deserts, the supplement industry, and adherence to lifestyle changes are all barriers present in nutritional psychiatry that are accompanied by added costs. These costs likely contribute to a disparity between low SES and high SES individuals benefitting from the treatment, in a similar way to classic treatments. This commentary reviews these factors to suggest that nutritional psychiatry may not be the accessible treatment option we purport it to be, and that as clinical researchers in the field, we must be aware of these disparities.

Background:The main objective of this study was to verify if the Lifestyles are related with the type of Personality of the firefighters. Another objective was to verify if stress is related with the Lifestyles adopted.Methods:This was a transversal study applied to 146 Firefighters of Leiria, with ages between the 17 and 60 years (44 female and 102 the male). We used the NEO-Pi-R to analyze Personality and the Lifestyles Appraisal Questionnaire.Results:We found a significant statistical correlation between the Lifestyle Part I (risk factors) and the Neuroticism, that suggests that these citizens tend to have a bigger risk to developing illnesses. They present higher values of concern, nervousness, hypochondriacs and they have more disability answers of coping. They tend to be emotionally unsafe, revealing, sometimes, feelings of incompetence. They also show sadness, fear, embarrassment, anger and guilt. We also found significant statistical between the lifestyle Part I (risk factors) and the Lifestyle Part II (Stress). Indicates that a higher risk of developing illness is related to higher levels of stress. It was verified that the citizens present high factors of risk for their health and that this factor helps to increase the loss of control of the perception of stress.

IntroductionIt is clear from the literature that depressive disorder is closely related to lifestyle, however the relationship between burnout and lifestyle remains unclear.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to present a comprehensive overview of depressive symptoms, burnout and lifestyle over the years. Furthermore, this study looks at the relationship between burnout, depressive symptomatology and lifestyle and seeks to clarify the extent to which burnout can be explained by these variables.MethodsData collection took place in three waves. The first data collection was in 2014 (October/November), the second in 2017 (March) and the third in 2020 (March). The STEM/MARK agency conducted the data collection and collected answers from a representative sample of respondents using the CAWI method - computer-assisted questioning. These respondents were selected from the European National Panel. Because the target group was adults (18-65 years), an online survey was chosen. Internet penetration in this target population is sufficient and it was not necessary to use a combination of methodologies.ResultsAll 3 data collections identically show that for the model explaining burnout statistically significant variables are: age, depression and fatigue during the day. Other variables related to healthy lifestyles did not reach statistical significance.ConclusionsEven though the variables regarding healthy lifestyles have not reached statistical significance, their importance should not be underestimated. Mental well-being is closely linked to physical health and therefore a holistic approach to health should be emphasized and the rate of burnout should be regularly monitored.DisclosureNo significant relationships.

“In a prospective, randomised, controlled trial to determine whether comprehensive lifestyle changes affect coronary atherosclerosis after 1 year, 28 patients were assigned to an experimental group (low-fat vegetarian diet, stopping smoking, stress management training, and moderate exercise) and 20 to a usual-care control group. 195 coronary artery lesions were analysed by quantitative coronary angiography. The average percentage diameter stenosis regressed from 40.0 (SD 16.9)% to 37.8 (16.5)% in the experimental group yet progressed from 42.7 (15.5)% to 46.1 (18.5)% in the control group. When only lesions greater than 50% stenosed were analysed, the average percentage diameter stenosis regressed from 61.1 (8.8)% to 55.8 (11.0)% in the experimental group and progressed from 61.7 (9.5)% to 64.4 (16.3)% in the control group. Overall, 82% of experimental-group patients had an average change towards regression. Comprehensive lifestyle changes may be able to bring about regression of even severe coronary atherosclerosis after only 1 year, without use of lipid-lowering drugs.”

Full textAbstract:
A good medical history is an essential starting point in ensuring that the physical health needs of people with severe mental illness are addressed. Psychiatrists have an important role in helping to tackle the general ill health, excess of undiagnosed physical illness and reduced survival rates among their patients. To do this they need to use their medical training, communication skills and regular contact with patients. Assessments should include family history, past and current physical health, medication, lifestyle, healthcare and physical symptoms. Some groups of patients will need more detailed assessments.

Lantz, Gregory. "Perceptions of Lifestyle as Mental Health Protective Factors Among Midwestern Amish." ScholarWorks, 2019. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/7691.
Full textAbstract:
The Amish are commonly known for horse-and-buggies, simple clothing, and refusal to use electricity. Less commonly known is their rate of mental illness, which is significantly lower than the non-Amish population. The literature that points to lower depression and anxiety among the Amish does not adequately explain what elements of their lifestyle contribute to this phenomenon. Depression and anxiety are a widespread problem in the United States, increasing the importance of understanding a lifestyle that can reduce these issues. The purpose of this study was to explore the Amish way of life through the words of its members. The three research questions that drove this investigation inquired how the Amish conceptualize mental illness, if and how they seek help for mental stress, and what elements of their lifestyle may protect them from higher rates of depression and anxiety. This qualitative study employed social constructionism as the conceptual framework and positive psychology as the theoretical foundation. Data collection employed a purposeful, maximum variation sample and consisted of 14 in depth, semi-structured, face-to-face interviews. Data analysis employed phenomenological techniques as outlined by Moustakas. Elements of the Amish lifestyle contributing to positive mental health include the increasing availability of Amish focused treatment centers, bishops who encourage mental health treatment, family ties, social bonds, work ethic, and the most significant to the Amish: their faith. This study contributes to positive social change by discovering elements of Amish life that may be practical to the non-Amish. If non-Amish find positive meaning from the elements of Amish life, it may lead to lower rates of depression and anxiety.

Background: Psychiatric nurses with mature professional skills must undergo a rigorous training process, effectively display appropriate nursing ability, assist patients with stable symptoms. Returning to the community is a continuously required task and mission for psychiatric nurses; this results in stressful workload, which has induced concern about the physical and mental health of nurses. Purposes: This study using cross-sectional survey method, the aims to explore work-related stress, health promotion lifestyle and related factors of the psychiatric nurses. Method: By using the cross-sectional survey method, the research objects are the nurses of a metal hospital in Hualien area. Through using the self administered structure questionnaire as a research tool for the general survey, issuing 115 questionnaires, and collecting 112 valid questionnaires. The returning rate reached 97.4%. Results: The subjects were all female between 31 and 40 years old, mostly with working experience less than 5 years. The job title of their position is called a nursing teacher; their major working location is in the ward with three shifts. The majority of certified nurses have bachelor degree. More than half of them are unmarried and have no children. The "work-related stress" of psychiatric nurses is at a medium to high level. The most intense pressure is "fatigue". Other stress is "unsatisfied", "low self-esteem", "depression" and "anxiety". Psychiatric nurses’ performance in health promoting lifestyle is not satisfactory; the scores from top to bottom in the six facets are "interpersonal relationship", "spiritual growth", "stress treatment", "health responsibility" and "nutrition"; the worst performance was "physical activity". "Work-related stress" and "health-promoting lifestyle" are negatively correlated, showing that work-related stress is high, health-promoting lifestyle is worse. Besides, marital status and work-related stress have an impact on the health promoting lifestyle of the subjects. Suggestions: Create a friendly workplace and construct healthy workplace for promoting programs. Organize and encourage psychiatric nurses to participate in social networking activities, form a family, lower the work-related pressure of psychiatric nurses, encourage the participation of health promoting lifestyle, and maintain physical and mental health.

Background: In terms of quality of life and health promoting lifestyle, hospital staff and nurses were in unsatisfactory conditions. Long-term unhealthy lifestyle was the main cause of chronical disease; thus, health promoting lifestyle affected not only staff’s personal health but also hospital’s effectiveness. Related researches often discussed staff in general hospitals, but seldom in psychiatrical hospitals; therefore, this was the motivation and background of this particular research. Objective: This research was to investigate the quality of life and health promoting lifestyle of the staff in a psychiatrical hospital in Southern Hualien. Methods: By using cross-sectional correlation study, 477 questionaires were given to the staff in a psychiatrical hospital in southern Hualien. 429 questionaires were valid. The response rate was 89.94%. Results : (1) The average score was 60.91%. The top 3 factors were physical health, social relations, and mental health. (2) Health promotion lifestyle score was 73.16 %, which was a little better than ordinary. The top 3 factors were personal relationship, spiritual growth and stress management . (3) The following factors, such as being married, having a master degree or better, doctor and medical personals, having kids, higher income, having regular exercise, non-smokers, would yield a better life quality. (4) The following factors, which would yield a better health promoting lifestyle, were: (a) being married; (b) having a master degree or better (in nutritional behavior category, a junior high school education was also good); (c) all job categories except nurses; (d) having kids and (e) having regular exercise. (5) Quality of life and health promotion lifestyle of hospital staff in the psychiatrical hospital had positive correlation.

This article mainly discusses the effect of health promotion lifestyles relationship between job stress and health in psychiatric nursing staffs. This research design is cross-section, description correlational research. Convenience sampling was used with nursing staffs in various psychiatric department in hospitals in Taipei city, Taipei county and Taoyuan city. Two hundred and thirty-four psychiatric nursing staffs who fit into the criteria were accepted as research subjects. Self-report structured survey was used to collect data about psychiatric nursing staffs’ job stress, health promotion lifestyles, and mental health. These data were analyzed by SPSS15.0. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used to analyze data. Descriptive statistics include mean, standard deviation, median and percentage etc. Inferential statistics include t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, one-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis test, Pearson product-moment correlation, Spearman rank-order correlation and Logistic regression models. Findings show subjects (1) The “job stress” mean is 84.29. Subjects whose age is young, with no children, school record is university (including) and above, work in acute, comprehensive and drug dependency ward, have bigger stress in their jobs.(2) The “health promotion lifestyles” mean is 54.53. Subjects whose age is older, monthly salary is higher, have spouse and children, have regular outpatient service, work in chronic, during the day and other wards, with moderate Body Mass Index have better health promotion lifestyles.(3) The “Health” mean is 3.40. Subjects whose age is young, with no children and spouse, work in acute, comprehensive and drug dependency ward, have worse health. The correlations of “job stress”, “health promotion lifestyles” and “Health” found:(1) “Job stress” and “health promotion lifestyles” show negative correlation.(2) “Job stress” and “health” show positive correlation. (3) “Health” promotion lifestyles” and “health” show negative correlation. Finally, living with friends, job stress and health promotion lifestyles are main predictors in health. The research result can provide psychiatric nursing staffs influence on health when adjusting job stress to integrate health promotion lifestyles to improve their job stress and the psychosomatic symptoms to reduce turnover rate and promotes the nursing service quality.

Full textAbstract:
An integrative approach to the understanding and treatment of mood, anxiety, and sexual disorders is different from a conventional allopathic approach. Rather than merely identifying and treating symptoms, integrative psychiatry looks at the whole person and provides a unique treatment plan for each person, which might also include psychotropic medications when appropriate. Integrative psychiatry addresses the root causes of the problem, considers all factors that influence an individual’s physical and mental health, and, whenever possible, uses less toxic interventions. Many individuals seek integrative care because the conventional approaches have failed to help them. This chapter provides a road map for treating depression and anxiety from an evidenced-based integrative perspective: micronutrients, fish oil, herbs, amino acids, other treatments such as light therapy, and of course lifestyle changes. The integrative approach to mental health treatment has the added benefit of doing less to disrupt sexual function and more to heal it.

Integrative Sexual Health explores beyond the standard topics in men’s and women’s health, drawing on a very rich and diverse research literature. Books on sexuality typically are for the clinical specialist and cite only focally relevant research, or are geared to lay knowledge and cite almost no research. Integrative Sexual Health provides an overview of sexual biology and sexual dysfunction, diverse lifespan, lifestyle, and environmental impacts on sexual function, applies complementary and integrative medicine solutions to sexual problems, and offers traditional Eastern and Western treatment approaches to resolving sexual difficulties. Written by diverse integratively trained experts in sexuality, psychology, psychiatry, and other medical specialties. Integrative Sexual Health includes clinical vignettes, detailed treatment strategies for mitigating the side effects of medications, and sexual dysfunction associated with medical illness and poor lifestyle habits, as well as citing extensive research and further resources. Integrative treatment modalities not typically consulted in mainstream sexual medicine, such as traditional Chinese medicine, Ayurvedic medicine, aromatherapy, and botanical medicine are presented with the best available evidence, in a clinically relevant manner. This volume in the Weil Integrative Medicine Library will be valuable to the specialist and non-specialist alike, who seek to understand and treat sexual problems using an integrative medicine approach, and acquire tools to help patients maintain lifetime optimal general health and vitality that supports healthy sexuality.

Full textAbstract:
The early intervention in psychiatry paradigm has offered the promise of improved tailored treatment. While pioneered in early psychosis, lines of evidence also suggest utility in early bipolar. A challenge is that the emergence of elevated states may post-date depression—preventing early diagnosis. Nonetheless, data suggests neuroprogression and an escalating diathesis to relapse occurs with successive episodes which may be impeded by early intervention. Mitigating psychosocial impacts, improving engagement, reducing the consequences of the progressive nature of the disorder, and enhancing adherence are key potential dividends of early intervention. This chapter provides an overview of the current literature, expert clinical opinions, and hints at future directions pertinent to early intervention. As genomics, informatics, and better appreciation of the importance of diet and lifestyle gain salience, there’s hope for a future rich with technologically enhanced tools to both sooner detect and intervene in early stage bipolar disorders to mitigate consequences.

This chapter reviews the potential uses of integrative psychiatry and complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) approaches for the management of patients with mood disorders. Mood disorders are among the most prevalent mental health issues affecting people today. A variety of pharmacological and psychological interventions are available currently for patients with mood disorders, however, many seek CAM for treatment. CAM interventions can include vitamins and supplements, herbal and botanical remedies, meditation and spiritual practices, acupuncture, and dietary and healthy living lifestyle modification. There is increased public interest in the use of integrative therapies in mood disorders. An increasing number of randomized clinical trials have been conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of integrative interventions both as monotherapy and as adjunct therapeutic approaches to treat mood disorders. This chapter presents an overview of research regarding integrative treatment approaches for mood and affective disorders to provide clinical direction regarding the use of such interventions.

Full textAbstract:
The interaction between HIV and mental illness is complex. For many individuals, the psychiatric condition is a preexisting one, predisposing to HIV infection through behavioral factors and risk environment. The risk factors for HIV are well established and involve blood/bodily fluid contact with infected individuals: unprotected sexual behaviors, needle sharing, multiple sexual partners, and fetal/natal exposure. Individuals with preexisting psychiatric illness often engage in risky behaviors with little thought or fear of consequences. This relates to increased emotional immaturity and impulsivity, poor contact with reality, denial and disinhibition, cognitive dysfunction, active thoughts of self-harm, and victimization or impaired judgment. Barriers to treatment, such as distrust of authority, poor communication skills, limited access, lack of motivation, and unstructured lifestyle, result in poor overall health care and delayed diagnosis of all health issues. Diagnosis of mental health issues is frequently challenging, and adherence to treatment is frequently impacted by these same factors.

Type 2 diabetes is predicted to affect between 10% and 25% of the world population in the next 20 years. Depression is a common comorbid condition in those affected with type 2 diabetes, and the combination of these conditions is associated with a poorer prognosis, including earlier mortality. Genetic and epigenetic predisposition and overlap of risk factors related to our modern lifestyle seem to drive the shared biology of diabetes and depression. This book aims to provide an understanding of the sequelae of events leading to the frequent comorbidity of diabetes and depression. This book project has been supported by the transCampus of Kings College London and Technical University of Dresden. Chapter by chapter, internationally recognized clinicians and scientists have summarized the state of the art and outstanding controversies of the epidemiology, mechanisms, and treatment of the depression–type 2 diabetes comorbidity. This book is relevant for all health professionals including the general practitioner and specialist clinicians in internal medicine, endocrinology, diabetes and metabolic diseases, neurology, psychiatry, and psychology as well as students interested in this topic.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Doctors writing about menopause in France vastly outnumbered those in other cultures throughout the entire nineteenth century. The concept of menopause was invented by Frenchmen medical students in the aftermath of the French Revolution, becoming an important pedagogic topic and a common theme of doctors’ professional identities in postrevolutionary biomedicine. Older women were identified as an important patient cohort for the expanding medicalisation of French society and were advised to entrust themselves to the hygienic care of doctors in managing the whole era of life from around and after the final cessation of menses. However, menopause owed much of its conceptual weft to earlier themes of women as the sicker sex, of vitalist crisis, of the vapours, and of astrological climacteric years. This book is the first comprehensive study of the origins of the medical concept of menopause, richly contextualising its role in nineteenth-century French medicine and revealing the complex threads of meaning that informed its invention. It tells a complex story of how women’s ageing featured in the demographic revolution in modern science, in the denigration of folk medicine, in the unique French field of hygiène, and in the fixation on women in the emergence of modern psychiatry. It also reveals the nineteenth-century French origins of the still-current medical and alternative-health approaches to women’s ageing as something to be managed through gynaecological surgery, hormonal replacement, and lifestyle intervention.

Full textAbstract:
Diet, sleep, and exercise are lifestyle factors important for the prevention and treatment of psychiatric disorders, including major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. These lifestyle factors can contribute to dysregulation in important physiological mechanisms associated with psychiatric disorders and influence neuroprogression. We review research highlighting the important role of these lifestyle factors for different psychiatric conditions, and examine the potential mechanisms behind their therapeutic effects, with a particular emphasis on how they may each influence neuroprogression.

Full textAbstract:
Improving your emotional resilience is a key task for you as a medical student. As a future doctor, your health and well- being are vital to that of your patients: if you are not functioning reliably, you will not be able to help your patients as much as you otherwise would. It is therefore vital that you look after your body and mind and, by implication, adopt a lifestyle that is both healthy and sustainable. It is often said that doctors make bad patients. There is some evidence that doctors are slow to seek help for health problems, and comply poorly with advice given by other healthcare professionals. In addition, doctors’ lives may be unhealthy, with high levels of stress, low levels of exercise, and excessive consumption of alcohol. The mental health of doctors is a particular concern. Doctors are at relatively high risk of mental disorder, and female doctors appear to be at higher risk of suicide than women in the general population. The reasons are several, and include the following: … ● The nature of doctors. Doctors are driven to succeed, and do not tolerate failure well. It is inevitable that some of our patients will die, some treatments will not be successful, and that, in a professional lifetime, some mistakes will be made. Our aim should be to reflect on and learn from these events, and then to move on positively. ● The nature of doctors’ work. Doctors tend to work hard, work for long hours, and work in challenging, resource- constrained environments. ● Poor help- seeking. Doctors may be reluctant to seek help for their medical problems, and this is particularly likely when the problem is psychiatric. ● Unsupportive and unsustainable lifestyle. Many doctors have challenging careers and challenging home lives, and allow themselves little time to recharge their batteries away from these ever-present stressors. They may not prioritize the maintenance of important resilience factors, such as the relationship with their partner, or interests outside medicine. ● Knowledge of and access to the means of suicide. Doctors (and vets, farmers, and pharmacists, to whom the above- mentioned factors also apply) have special expertise in the use of chemicals which are toxic in overdose.

Full textAbstract:
In the community, the term ‘anxiety’ is frequently associated with a stressful Western lifestyle and thought of as a modern phenomenon— but this is far from the case. Anxiety disorders were clearly described as early as the writings of Hippocrates, and have been prevalent in literary characterization to the present. Anxiety disorders are the most common type of psychiatric disorder, with one in three people experiencing them during a lifetime. They are characterized by marked, persistent mental and physical symptoms of anxiety, that are not secondary to another disorder and that impact negatively upon the sufferer’s life. Anxiety disorders may be primary psychiatric conditions, or a secondary response to the stress associated with physical illness and its treatment. Many people with anxiety disorders never seek medical attention, but these are commonly seen conditions in both primary and secondary care, and they may present with either mental or physical complaints. Obsessive– compulsive disorder is also considered in this chapter. Its relationship to anxiety disorders is uncertain— classification systems currently separate the two— but there are some important common features. Normal anxiety is the response to threatening situations. Feelings of apprehension are accompanied by physiological changes that prepare for defence or escape (‘fight or flight’), notably increases in heart rate, blood pressure, respiration, and muscle tension. Sympathetic nervous system activity is increased, causing symptoms such as tremor, sweating, polyuria, and diarrhoea. Attention and concentration are focused on the threatening situation. Anxiety is a beneficial response in dangerous situations, and should occur in everyday situations of perceived threat (e.g. examinations). Abnormal anxiety is a response that is similar but out of proportion to the threat and/ or is more prolonged, or occurs when there is no threat. With one exception, the symptoms of anxiety disorders are the same as those of a normal anxiety response. The exception is that the focus of attention is not the external threat (as in the normal response) but the physiological response itself. Thus in abnormal anxiety, attention is focused on a symptom such as increased heart rate. This focus of attention is accompanied by concern about the cause of the symptom.

Full textAbstract:
Psychiatric disorders predispose individuals to physical illness and premature mortality. ‘Somatoprogression’ refers to the accumulation of medical comorbidities that occurs parallel to the chronological deterioration of the mental illness (known as neuroprogression). Psychiatric illness engenders increased medical burden via lifestyle factors, adverse pharmacological effects, differential healthcare access, and illness-related perturbations in psychobiological systems. Because medical comorbidities simultaneously exacerbate the course of mental disorders, the relationship between psychiatric and somatic illness is bidirectional. Moreover, the multitude of shared risk factors points to common pathoaetiological processes, which emerge as both medical and psychiatric phenomena. The allostatic load model provides a framework to understand the interrelationship of the processes underlying neuroprogression and somatoprogression. In bipolar disorder, somatoprogression manifests as increased risk of endocrine/metabolic, inflammatory, and cardiovascular disease, subserved by chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and reduced neurotrophic support. Importantly, converging evidence suggests a synergy of affective progression and somatoprogression in the development of cognitive impairment.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter looks at the impact of health and lifestyle factors on the risk of developing dementia in later life. It provides a brief overview of dementia and its most common causes, and an explanation of the degree to which genetics play a role. It reviews the available evidence regarding the extent to which potentially modifiable risk factors including smoking, obesity, physical activity, cognitive activity, diet, alcohol, depression, and diabetes may contribute to a likelihood of developing dementia in later life. Both general dietary patterns and the evidence related to vitamin B12, folate, antioxidants, and omega 3 fatty acids are reviewed. Possible approaches to the conversion of this knowledge into a reduction in the prevalence of dementia in the future are discussed. It is written for anyone with an interest in dementia and potential opportunities to mitigate the impact on individuals and society.

Full textAbstract:
Medical treatment of the addictions remains controversial, with addiction itself viewed as a lifestyle problem, a hijacking of brain systems by drugs, or as a medical illness. Many of these controversies may be avoided by taking a goal-oriented approach to treatment, in which clinical objectives are defined, and both medications and psychological interventions are used to facilitate progress towards these. The effectiveness of medications is maximized when they are used as one component of a comprehensive treatment plan. There are no ‘magic bullets’ in addiction treatment—the same pharmacological principles apply to these drug treatments as to any other. Drugs need to be given in effective doses, at appropriate intervals, allowed time to reach steady state, and also to dissipate when terminated on the basis of their half-life. Some drugs also have an abuse potential of their own (e.g. opiates, sedative-hypnotics) especially those with a rapid onset of action, and such drugs need to be particularly closely monitored and controlled, to minimize their diversion and misuse.

Full textAbstract:
Judaism was the first monotheist religion and has about 18 million adherents in the world today. This review covers the historical development of biblical Israelite religion in the ancient land of Israel beginning 1000 BCE and how it gradually developed into the very different rabbinical Judaism that exists today. While most Jews today are secular participants in Western democratic liberal cultures, Orthodox, and especially ultra-orthodox Jews are a rapidly growing minority with special needs for culturally sensitive psychiatry acceptable to their religious lifestyle and observance to the commandments. The traditional Jewish beliefs in a future Messiah is also a component of some manic states and the differential diagnosis between ‘religiosity’ and mental illness can be important in psychiatric settings with orthodox Jewish patients.

Full textAbstract:
Dementia is caused by an interplay between genes and lifestyle and environmental factors. Recent advances in genetic and molecular biology have provided valuable insights into the pathogenesis of underlying dementia for not only in those with clear genetic aetiology, but also in those with no familial basis. The advent of large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and the more recent next-generation sequencing has unravelled some great insight into the possible underlying mechanisms involved in neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, vascular dementia, frontotemporal lobar degeneration, and Lewy body disease. Interestingly, there is a common theme and these studies have outlined several pathways such as immune regulation, lipid metabolism, protein folding, and protein transport. This brings hope for future treatment strategies and therapeutic targets. Finally, most dementias are multifactorial and not only caused by genetic factors. Therefore, more research is needed, particularly investigations of epistasis and gene-by-environment interaction.

INTRODUCCIÓN Más del 70% de los pacientes con esquizofrenia son dependientes a la nicotina. (Buckley, 1998). Los pacientes con esquizofrenia tienen un estilo de vida menos saludable en comparación con la población general, ya que presentan tasas más elevadas de consumo de tabaco, tienen una alimentación menos sana y son más sedentarios. (Costa et al., 2019). Esta es el primer estudio que analiza un modelo predictivo del consumo de tabaco en estos pacientes. METODOLOGIA Estudio transversal sobre 590 pacientes (60,1% hombres y 39,7% mujeres) diagnosticados de un trastorno del espectro de la esquizofrenia (edad media 43,19 + 13,58 años). Evaluamos la gravedad de la enfermedad (PANSS y GAF), el estado cognitivo (SCIP y CRASH) y los hábitos de vida (PREDIMED e IPAQ). Medimos el consumo de tabaco en todos los pacientes (nºcig/d). Se realiza una regresión logística por pasos hacia atrás con el consumo de tabaco como variable dependiente, con el resto de variables como independientes. RESULTADOS El consumo cigarrillos medio fue de 9,50+-10,71. El modelo de regresión por pasos hacia atrás fue estadísticamente significativo (F=4,6; p= 0,001). Las variables que contribuyen significativamente al modelo son: PANSS positiva (p=0,011), CRASH (p=0,028) y PREDIMED (p=0,032). CONCLUSIONES Una mayor gravedad de la enfermedad, una menor reserva cognitiva y una menor adherencia a la dieta mediterránea, predicen un mayor consumo de cigarrillos. FEDER, PI17/00246 Buckley, P.

In this paper, we discuss the impacts on physical and mental wellbeing, caused by the disruption of previous lifestyles, during periods of increased physical isolation and distancing as the most common measure implemented to reduce virus transmission rates during the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Utilizing a multi-step data collection process, we identified changes in the recreational and eating habits of a convenient sample of students and employees of the Faculty of Organizational Sciences University of Maribor. The results of the empirical study were evaluated by professionals in the fields of psychiatry and nutrition in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the impacts and possible negative consequences caused of the Covid-19 pandemic on human health. According to the collected data, the pandemic itself was only partially responsible for the physical and mental state that a large proportion of participants are currently in due to social and physical distancing. Moreover, the recreational and eating habits have also changed during periods of “lockdowns” which have also affected our wellbeing as well.
