Full textMise en Contexte: Malgré sa faible incidence, le cancer de l'ovaire est associé avec de très mauvais pronostique et c'est de notoriété publique dans la population générale. Les connaissances sont limitées sur les niveaux d'anxiété et de dépression chez les femmes qui subissent des tests de diagnostic pour la suspicion du cancer de l'ovaire. Cette étude a été menée dans le cadre de l'essai clinique DOvE (Diagnostic du cancer de l'ovaire précoce), un projet en cours fournissant le test de l'antigène du cancer (CA125) et l'échographie trans-vaginale (ÉTV) dans les centres de diagnostics spécialisés à Montréal, pour les femmes présentant des symptômes qui ont été considérés associée à un cancer de l'ovaire. Objectifs: Notre objectif était d'examiner si la participation à ce programme a eu un impact sur la dépression et l'anxiété initiale ; nous avons voulu évaluer en particulier si un test faussement positif a eu un effet persistant, définie comme une durée de 4 mois ou plus, après que les femmes ont été informées que le test a été négatif. Méthodes: 706 femmes symptomatiques, ayant 50 ans ou plus, qui ont participé à DOvE entre juillet 2010 et septembre 2012 ont été invitées à remplir des questionnaires psychologiques, le Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), le Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) en deux points clés dans le processus de diagnostic: à la clinique, immédiatement avant l'évaluation et à la visite de suivi, 4 mois plus tard. Résultats: Bien que les taux d'anxiété et les scores étaient similaires lors de l'évaluation initiale et la visite de suivi, nous avons vu une diminution du taux et du niveau de dépression dans le temps (p <.001). Il n'y avait pas de différence significative sur les variables démographiques et les scores d'anxiété / dépression entre les patientes testées positives dans l'absence de la maladie (faux positifs) et celles avec des résultats négatifs correctement diagnostiqués (vrais négatifs). Les femmes qui avaient de vrais résultats négatifs (77%) avaient un score significativement plus faible de la dépression au suivi qu'au début du programme (p <.001).Conclusions: Globalement, faire partie du DOvE ne semble pas affecter négativement au moyen terme les scores d'anxiété et de dépression des femmes. En outre, les participants ont semblé bénéficier de l'assurance fournie par un résultat négatif, ce qui donne de la pertinence dans le contexte d'une maladie de faible incidence avec une réputation de mauvais résultats.

Full textwith reported rates as high as 41.2% (Cartwright-Hatton, McNicol, & Doubleday, 2006; Cooley,
Boyd, & Grados, 2004). A majority of the anxiety intervention programs target children who are
7 years of age and older. Yet, many anxiety disorders develop in the preschool years (APA,
2000). Therefore, it seems desirable to work with young children who display early signs of
anxiety to provide them with skills that would protect them from later full-blown
psychopathology. Early intervention and prevention programs may be effective ways to modify
the developmental trajectory of anxiety disorders.
The present research reports findings from an anxiety prevention program for 4-7 year
olds. One hundred and ten children from two schools in a rural part of Southwest Virginia
participated. Fifty-seven children from one school received a classroom-based prevention
program on a weekly basis over 20 weeks. Fifty-three children from a second school served as a control group. The mean age of the sample was 5.11 years. Results suggested that anxiety was positively correlated with emotional symptoms (r = .67, p<.001), peer difficulties (r = .21,p<.05), and total difficulties (r =.29, p<.03) on the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire for all children. Overall, there were significant decreases in anxiety symptoms from pre to follow-up for both groups of children [F (1, 105) = 7.79, p =.006]. Unexpectedly, anxiety symptoms increased from pre to post for children in the intervention school whereas they decreased for children in the control school. Although these findings are reversed of what was expected, these results may have important implications concerning the importance of providing anxiety education and awareness for teachers. Implications of the current findings, limitations of the study, and directions for future research and dissemination are discussed.

Full textDepression and anxiety affects approximately 25 million adults within the United States each year. Furthermore, the population of adults experiencing some form of mental illness is expected to grow 15% by the year 2020. While there are many traditional therapeutic approaches to treating mental health challenges, evidence-based alternative therapies are gaining credibility. One such form of alternative treatment is yoga therapy. Therefore, the purpose of this project was to create an innovative yoga therapy program for adults to reduce the symptoms associated with anxiety or depression. This project was developed on behalf of the Jewish Federation and Family Services of Orange County. The goals of this yoga therapy program are to increase mind-body connection, decrease symptoms of anxiety or depression, and improve the overall quality of one's life. The actual submission and/or funding of this grant were not required for the successful completion of this thesis project.

Full textPrimary hypothyroidism is in Sweden a national disease that afflicts primarily women of all ages. The disease’s symptoms are extensive and can give serious consequences to the patient’s health if not detected and treated in time. This could greatly affect the patient’s quality of life. Nursing interventions are aimed at promoting the patient's quality of life through helping the individual with adaptation to changes caused by the disease. The aim was to illustrate how primary hypothyroidism affects the quality of life in adult patients. The method chosen was a literature review based on 10 scientific articles. The result showed that anxiety and depression are common problems that can cause mental illness in individuals with primary hypothyroidism. Patients could experience restrictions in activities in their daily life, reduced overall health, social problems, decreased vitality and emotional limitations. Psychological, physical and social aspects affect the patient’s quality of life.

Full textCardiovascular diseases are presented as a major cause of death and disability in actuality. These changes include coronary artery disease or ischemic etiology and present multi-factorial. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a cognitive-behavioral intervention on quality of life, depression, anxiety and under risk factors in ischemic patients who had shown an episode of acute illness in the last three months. Study participants were 71 patients, who were divided into two groups; control (n = 35) and experimental (n = 36) and evaluated in three times: soon after the first contact with researcher; after 14 weeks (revaluation) and after six months (follow up). In assessments the patients responded to a structured interview, the inventory quality of life of the World Health Organization (WHOQUOL), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and the anxiety of Beck Inventory (BAI). The experimental group was subjected to a program of cognitive-behavioral intervention, between the top two ratings. This program has been structured into eight weekly group sessions, with duration of two hours each. During the sessions were worked techniques of management of anxiety, relaxation and visualization, techniques for solving problems and discussed information about heart disease and its risk factors. Among the participants, the majority were male, had more than 55 years, was married, had studied for a maximum period of ten years and were retired. With respect to sociodemographic data, no statistical differences were found between the two groups. There was a significant decrease in body weight and body mass index among the subjects of the experimental group in the course of the evaluations, as well as an increase in the number of leisure activities. The results also suggest a decrease in depressive symptoms of patients in the experimental group in relation to the control group, and following the revaluation, and an improvement in the quality of life of the experimental group in the course of progressive evaluations, which was not observed with respect the control group. It is considered that the programme of cognitive-behavioral intervention showed positive results in the rehabilitation of patients ischemic and secondary prevention of coronary artery disease, promoting physical and emotional changes important.

Full textResearch indicates that negative affective traits (e.g., depression) are predictors and consequences of excess adiposity. Given that racial minorities and positive affective traits have been underrepresented in past investigations, more prospective studies are needed which examine multiple affective traits in relation to obesity in these populations. The objective of the current study was to investigate the prospective, bidirectional associations between multiple affective traits and multiple adiposity indicators in African Americans using data from the African American Health (AAH) study. The AAH study is a prospective cohort study of African Americans aged 49-65 years at baseline (N = 998). The longest follow-up period in the current study was 9 years (N = 579). Self-reported and measured body mass index (BMI; kg/m2) and body fat percent (BF%) were used as adiposity indicators. Depressive symptoms were assessed with the 11-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), and anxiety was assessed using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-2 (GAD-2) scale. Positive affective traits were assessed with the Vitality subscale of the Short Form-36 and Positive Affect subscale from the CES-D. Latent variable path analysis, a structural equation modeling technique, was conducted. Although fit statistics indicated that the models fit the data (RMSEA < .06), examination of the structural paths revealed that the CES-D and GAD-2 were not predictors or consequences of self-reported BMI, measured BMI, or BF% (ps > .05). Likewise, Vitality and CES-D Positive Affect were not related to any adiposity indicator (ps > .05). The results of this prospective cohort study suggest that affective traits are not predictors or consequences of adiposity in middle-aged African Americans and that this group may require obesity prevention or intervention programs with little to no emphasis on affective traits. Possible explanations for the current results include ethnic differences in the mechanistic pathways between affective traits and adiposity.

Full textThe concept of "psychosocial risks at work" gathers several work-related suffering risks. These risks are, at the same time, related to the generating acts of pain and to the expressions of suchpain on employees’ health. Despite its formulation, this concept refers to events affecting both mental and physical health of workers. Such affecting events share the same social ground. Indeed, psychosocial risks are mainly caused by the companies’ organization themselves, management methods or harmful relationships. Even though the expression of psychosocial risks was formerly developed out of the legal environment, it is now generally used in law to deal with issues of health and safety at work. However, the comprehensive understanding of such risks is not yet obvious from a legal perspective. These are complicated to define and delimit, tinged with subjectivity and unlikely to be understood in light of the employment law history. However, law is increasingly taking into account the different dimensions of the workers’ individuality. Also, if the psychosocial risks fail to be recognized, so far, as an independent and entire legal concept, both laws (domestic and international) and case law are more and more referring to it. Therefore, measures and legal solutions applicable to the working relationships in private companies enable to prevent such risks, punish or compensate them. As such, a wide range of people, whether related or not to the company, are able to duly face these factors
