Abstract:
Balloon dilatation of the stenosed mitral valve, in an attempt to relieve symptoms, was developed to replace the surgical procedure of closed mitral valvotomy. This procedure, whereby a balloon tipped catheter is introduced from the femoral vein and directed across the mitral valve after an atrial septal puncture, was developed in 1982. The procedure was first performed at Groote Schuur Hospital in 1988. Two types of dilating balloon (Inoue and Bifoil types) have been used. The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze the results of balloon mitral valvuloplasty procedures performed from 1988 until November 1992. In addition a detailed analysis was made of all complications of the procedure. 118 patients (mean age 30.7 years) underwent 124 attempted procedures. 93 % of attempts were successfully completed and an optimal result was achieved in 76% of patients. Mitral valve area increased from 0.9cm² to 2.0cm². Equivalent results have been achieved with both balloon types. Death occurred in 1.6 % of patients. 2.4 % of patients had severe mitral regurgitation as a complication. 4% of procedures resulted in cardiac chamber perforation. The experience at Groote Schuur has been similar to other centres treating young patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis.

Abstract:
Background: A randomized controlled study (RCT) recently showed that short-term heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback in addition to standard rehabilitation care for alcohol dependence can reduce craving, anxiety and improve cardiovascular autonomic function. In this one-year follow-up study we aimed to explore whether completion of 2-week HRV-Biofeedback training is associated with long-term abstinence. Furthermore, we sought to identify potential predictors of post-treatment abstinence. Methods: We conducted a survey on abstinence in patients with alcohol dependence 1 year after completion of an RCT comparing HRV-biofeedback in addition to inpatient rehabilitation treatment alone (controls). Abstinence rates were compared and analysed for association with demographic data as well as psychometric and autonomic cardiac assessment before and after completion of the biofeedback training using bivariate and multivariate regression analyses. Results: Out of 48 patients who participated in the RCT, 27 patients (9 females, ages 42.9 ± 8.6, mean ± SD) completed our one-year follow-up. When including in the analysis only patients who completed follow-up, the rate of abstinence tended to be higher in patients who underwent HRV-biofeedback 1 year earlier compared to those who received rehabilitative treatment alone (66.7% vs 50%, p = ns). This non-significant trend was also observed in the intention-to-treat analysis where patients who did not participate in the follow-up were assumed to have relapsed (46,7% biofeedback vs. 33.3% controls, p = ns). Neither cardiac autonomic function nor psychometric variables were associated with abstinence 1 year after HRV-biofeedback. Conclusion: Our follow-up study provide a first indication of possible increase in long-term abstinence after HRVbiofeedback for alcohol dependence in addition to rehabilitation. Trial registration: The original randomized controlled trial was registered in the German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS00004618). This one-year follow-up survey has not been registered.

Abstract:
In this study, the immediate and short term (three months) effects of conservation burning have been investigated in coniferous forests in southeastern Sweden. Five tree species were investigated Picea abies (Norway spruce), Pinus sylvestris (Scots pine), Populus tremula (aspen), Betula pendula (silver birch) and Betula pubescens (downy birch), as well as ground vegetation of mosses, dwarf shrubs and ground lichens. Burning increased the proportion of live deciduous tree shoots from 51 % to 81 % and the live tree shoot size distribution of four tree species was significantly changed by fire. Fire affected the tree species differently. Three months after burning deciduous tree species exhibited strong sprouting, while P. sylvestris had established many seedlings, significantly increasing its share of the tree stand. P. abies lacked any visible positive response to burning and its number of live shoots decreased by 83 %. Mineral soil was exposed on only the moss vegetation and covered just 4 % of the studied plot area. The initial vegetation response to fire was negative, but significant dwarf shrub recovery was detected three months after burning.

Davis, Anthony T. "A study of depression in attempted suicide: initial assessment, short-term follow-up and prediction of persistent depression." Thesis, 2012. http://hdl.handle.net/2440/71975.

Full text
Abstract:
Depression, no matter how it is categorized, is the most common psychiatric disorder in patients who attempt suicide. However, there are conflicting views about the nature, extent and significance of depression in this group. Further-more, there is minimal information available concerning the short term course of depression following attempted suicide and therefore the optimal clinical management of depressed suicidal patients. These patients carry a high risk for repeated attempted suicide or suicide. The study aimed to provide a detailed analysis of several conceptualizations of depression in adults who have attempted suicide and to examine short-term changes in mood state following the suicide attempt. It further aimed to identify predictors of depression one week following attempted suicide, with a view to assisting clinicians in the initial identification of patients who could be at risk for ongoing suicidal behaviour. To achieve these aims a three year multi-phasic study was designed, utilizing a range of measures of depression. Initially, the extent of the problem of attempted suicide at the Royal Adelaide Hospital was established and then, according to self-report measures of depression, the frequency and type of depression in the patients who had attempted suicide was defined. Having identified a cohort of suicidal patients with a depressive disorder, aspects of depression were characterized in depth, using self-report and observer rating scales and a structured clinical interview, which enabled quantification of depression severity, category, diagnosis and symptoms. A sub-group of this cohort was followed up at one week, with a detailed examination of all measures of depression. As well, socio-demographic, clinical history and mental state variables that predicted the presence of depression at one week were identified in this group. Depression screening of 437 patients demonstrated a high rate of depression in this group, independent of age and sex. A substantial number had features of an endogenous type depressive disorder, and only a small percentage was classified as not depressed. The detailed study of 201 subjects revealed a significant level of psychopathology, with more than half categorized as endogenous type depression and just less than half with a DSM-III Affective Disorder. Over one week, in 128 subjects, there was a significant reduction in all measures of depression. This was however less evident in the group categorized with an endogenous type depression. This finding was independent of age but some sex differences were identified. Significant changes were observed in all DSM-III categories and all depressive symptoms. The observed reductions in depression over one week adds support to the notion of attempted suicide having a cathartic therapeutic effect in a number of suicidal individuals. A logistic regression analysis enabled identification of a number of socio-demographic and clinical variables at initial assessment that predicted persistent depression at one week. These included female sex, being single/widowed/divorced, a history of previous depression, absence of acute psycho-social stressors, use of prescribed medication, a non-overdose method of suicide attempt, high level of hopelessness, the presence of personality disorder, recurrent thoughts of suicide, decreased appetite, the presence of excessive / inappropriate guilt, presence of early morning wakening and decrease in sexual drive. The findings of this large study make a substantial contribution to our understanding of the phenomenology of depression in suicidal patients and the short-term course of depression following the suicidal crisis. Furthermore, the unique study design enabled identification of predictors of persistent depression in this vulnerable group, which could provide valuable assistance to clinicians engaged in the initial assessment of suicidal patients in emergency departments. Clinicians should be alert to the presence of these high-risk characteristics when assessing all suicidal patients, and make every effort to ensure that such patients receive immediate and adequate psychiatric follow-up. A replication of findings and extension of this study could result in the development of a useful clinical protocol that could assist clinicians with the immediate assessment and short-term management of the vast number of suicidal patients presenting to hospitals in Australia. Several elements of this study of the association between depression and attempted suicide contributed to its uniqueness. The study was multi-phasic, moving from a broad to narrow focus on depression; it utilized multiple measures to define depression; and it incorporated a measure of “endogenicity”, that proved to be useful in identifying a sub-group of patients with characteristic biological features and a relatively stable mood state. The focus on short-term changes in depression was central to the study, as was the attempt to identify the pre- and post-suicidal mood condition of subjects. As far as I have determined from the literature review, the identification of predictors of persistent depression has not been reported by other researchers. Furthermore, the follow-up cohort of 128 patients was large when compared with all of the follow-up studies published to date. One of the greatest challenges for clinicians in assessing attempted suicide patients is the identification of patients at risk of further suicidal behaviour, either a repeat suicide attempt or suicide. The study findings could assist with the development and formulation of early intervention strategies, aimed at reducing the morbidity and mortality of this vulnerable group of patients.

The research aims to investigate the effect of life event, personality, family function and spirituality of well-being on depression and suicide. Purposes of the research are: (1) Understanding the relationship between depression and suicide among adolescents; (2) Exploring the gender difference of depression and suicide among adolescents; (3) Searching for the related factors of depression and suicide among adolescents; and (4) Examining the association of depression and suicide between baseline and follow-up. Four high school students (n=357) in Zhanghua County were recruited and completed a series of questionnaire twice in a six-month interval. Five measuring tools are included: (1) The Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children and Adolescents (K-SADS-E); (2) Junior Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (JEPQ); (3) Life Event Checklist (LEC); (4) FACES-III; and (5) The Spirituality Index of Well-Being (SIWB). Reliability and validity were assessed for all measures, and data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, logistic regression, and Pearson correlation. In the research we found (1) Around 25.8 percent of participants were diagnosed as depression and 10.1 percent were diagnosed as suicide. (2) Significant gender differences were shown in family functioning and spirituality (p<0.05), as well as in depression and suicide (p<0.05). (3) The depressed status showed significant associations with both neurotic personality and spiritual self-efficacy, and the ideation of suicide showed significant associations with neurotic personality, meaning of life and cohesion (p<0.05). (4) Girls showed a stronger relation to neurotic personality and negative life event (p<0.05) than boys. (5) The neurotic personality demonstrated a positive correlation to the negative life event (Pearson''s correlation coefficient=0.35), a negative correlation to spirituality and well-being and family function (Pearson''s correlation coefficient= (-)0.03-(-)0.20); yet the extroversion personality showed a positive correlation to those two measures (Pearson''s correlation coefficient= 0.01-0.16). (6) The reliability of the scales indicated satisfactory results (Crobach’s Alpha>0.7). The research indicated that there is an intensive relation among neurotic personality and negative life event to depressed and suicidal inclination, and of those two are also the key factors to affect female depressing and suicidal inclination. Schools should provide more consoling instructors and pay more attention to those students who are under these conditions.

Abstract:
This item is only available electronically.
Life expectancy at birth is increasing in Australia, alongside the prevalence of chronic conditions and comorbidity. This places a heavy burden on patients, carers, and our healthcare system. Minimal research has assessed psychological risk factors for non-adherence and hospital readmissions in patients who have comorbid cardiovascular disease and diabetes, yet these commonly co-occur, particularly in older adults, and are associated with increased hospitalizations. This longitudinal cohort study aims to explore psychological risk factors for non-adherence (failing to attend a general practitioner follow-up appointment after hospital discharge) and short-term hospital readmission in older adult inpatients (N = 36, M = 67.78 years) with cardiovascular disease and diabetes, recruited from a public hospital in Australia. Results indicated that GP follow-up and readmission were not related, and no gender differences were found. CHLOC (OR = 0.82) and PHLOC (OR = 0.82) predicted non-adherence. Depression (r = -.23) and stress (r = -.10) increased likelihood of readmission, however logistic regression analyses found none of these significantly predicted readmissions. These findings help to inform the risk factors of non-adherence and short-term readmissions in older adults with comorbid cardiovascular disease and diabetes, which may help reduce the impact on our healthcare system.

Abstract:
A death in research exacerbates the lack of knowledge and information in respect of the needs and life view of the aged. Two studies were conducted in this population group with specific reference to the 'once-off interview'. Information was gathered using interview schedules focusing on therapeutic skills of social workers working within the system which cares for the aged. Results of a pilot study and an expanded study were compared in order to establish the inter-relationship between the. needs of the elderly, their elemental experiences in line with Bloom's theory (1984), and the role of the social worker. Findings revealed that the majority of "discontinuances" after the first interview were because the needs of the elderly clients had in fact been met. The need for day care services, transport and the expansion of the 'home help' facility was highlighted to enable the elderly to retain their independence in the community

Abstract:
The Multimodal Treatment of Children with ADHD (MTA) study was a 14-month randomized clinical trial with naturalistic follow-ups of participants (579 children with ADHD and 259 matched community controls) after treatment for a total of 16 years. Results from this study showed a superiority of multimodal treatment regimens for ADHD compared with the commonly available community care. Nevertheless, symptom and functioning improvements brought about by multimodal therapy lapsed after cessation of therapy. In short, the MTA study showed that ADHD is a chronic condition, requiring continuous, long-term, and well-monitored treatments. Furthermore, results showed that ADHD symptoms persist into adulthood in about half the sample, and that persistence is associated with poorer outcomes than remission or no childhood ADHD.

Abstract:
Aggression between students at school is a common problem, particularly within the context of the school playground. Key mechanisms in coercion theory, including positive and negative reinforcement for aggression and peer deviancy training, can operate with abandon on school playgrounds without adult supervision, monitoring, and appropriate intervention. The Linking the Interests of Families and Teachers (LIFT) multimodal preventive intervention, designed to address aggression on the playground, is described. The short-term and intermediate follow-up findings from a randomized controlled trial of LIFT on aggression on the playground as well as other forms of child antisocial behavior are overviewed. Long-term follow-up findings on the relations between playground aggression and antisocial behaviors during mid-adolescence and emerging adulthood are then reported. It is argued that to be effective, coercion theory–based prevention programs like LIFT need to continue across elementary school and into secondary school, rather than be delivered at only one point in time.

Abstract:
Medication and/or psychosocial treatment in childhood do not appear to have an impact on adult outcomes of individuals with ADHD. There is, however, a marked decline in medication adherence in adolescence, which continues into adulthood, with less than 10% of adults with ADHD continuing to use medication. Moreover, psychosocial treatments too often do not continue to be used or adapted to new challenges. Thus, it is difficult to conclude what impact medication and/or psychosocial treatments would have on adult outcomes should these treatments be adhered to and applied continuously. As it stands, the lack of impact from treatments in childhood suggests that ADHD is a chronic condition, and that ongoing regular follow-up may be needed to offer patients interventions (medication and psychosocial treatment) that they require both to improve their symptoms in the short-term and promote more positive long-term outcome.

Abstract:
Tyrosinemia type 1 (HT-1) is a rare metabolic disorder affecting degradation pathways of the amino acid tyrosine. HT-1 presents with liver, kidney and/or bone disease and can cause acute porphyria attacks. Biochemical diagnosis is made by measuring raised plasma tyrosine and detection of succinylacetone in urine. Long-term management with diet and nitisinone leads to excellent short term results, but since long term effects are largely unknown, life-long treatment and follow-up for liver malignancy, bone disease and kidney disease seem necessary. HT-1 is treatable by liver transplantation.

Perioperative mortality for BPD-DS is currently around 0.1%, with an early complication rate of 7%. The standard follow-up required for the prevention of nutritional deficiencies as well as the management of short- and long-term complications specific to metabolic surgeries are also discussed. The data and clinical views expressed in this chapter are based to a large extent on the authors’ experience with 5,000 BPD-DS surgeries in our institution over the last 25 years, and which have been reported extensively in the literature. In our experience, severe protein malnutrition occurred in 10% patients, of whom 5% required readmission and 1.5% a surgical revision to correct the problem.

Abstract:
This chapter provides a summary of a landmark study in psychiatry in primary care to mediate the effect of depression on overall health status . In the treatment of patients with major depression and coronary artery disease, what is the short-term efficacy of a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (citalopram) and/or interpersonal therapy? Starting with that question, it describes the basics of the study, including funding, study location, who was studied, how many patients, study design, study intervention, follow-up, endpoints, results, and criticism and limitations. The chapter briefly reviews other relevant studies and information, discusses implications, and concludes with a relevant clinical case.

Abstract:
AbstractUnruptured brain AVMs (bAVMs) remain a controversial subject for practicing neurosurgeons, especially in the light of ARUBA and other observational studies. This retrospective study aims to analyze our experience with unruptured bAVMs to see whether it is beneficial in the long-term and how it corresponds to large literature trials. The study comprised 160 adult patients with unruptured bAVMs surgically treated in Burdenko NMC (Moscow) in 2009–2017. Mean age: 33.4 ± 10лет. Clinical presentations were: seizures in 99 (61.9%), chronical headaches—49 (30.6%), ischemic symptoms—4 (2.5%), asymptomatic in 8 (5%) patients. Spetzler-Martin scale: I—18 pt. (11.3%), II—71 pt. (44.4%), III—60 pt. (37.5%), IV—11 pt. (6.8%). Good outcomes (mRS = 0–2) at discharge were achieved in 149 (93.1%), satisfactory (mRS—3)—9 (5.6%). Follow-up was complete for 97 (60.6%) patients, mean—59.3 (13–108 month). Excellent outcomes (mRS = 0–1) reached in 94.8%. For epilepsy patients, Engel I outcome was found in 50 (84.8%); for chronic headaches, 43 (66.1%) patients reported improvement. Postoperative visual field defects were followed in 22 of 55 (40%), complete recovery was reported in 6 (27%) and partial recovery in 8 (36%) patients. Overall, our results support the conclusion that surgery for low-grade bAVMs (S-M I–II) is a beneficial, low-risk option.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter provides an overview of the effectiveness of programs and interventions that aim to strengthen the sense of coherence (SOC) throughout the life span. The authors report on more than 40 studies investigating the effectiveness of interventions to strengthen the SOC. They structure and summarize findings for young people, employed and unemployed adults, health professionals, people with disabilities, people with psychosomatic and mental health problems, people with physical problems, hospital patients, and older people. Even though most studies are limited to short-term pre-test and post-test study designs, a few studies have investigated the effects of intervention for longer follow-up periods of up to several months and even more than one year.

Abstract:
Life expectancy of patients with liver cirrhosis (LC) is dependent upon thepresence of haemodinamic and metabolic complications.Patients with ascites, hepatic encephalopathy and bleeding have lower survival than patients in compensated state. Neverthless the clinical signs of decompensated state are not useful in the individual assessment of LF. Recently we showed that some coagulation factors such as factor VII and prekallikrein (prekk) are good indexes of LF.In fact they clearly differentiate decompensated LC from compensated one and, in a short term follow up. survivors from non survivors. In order to evaluate the relation between factor VII (Mariani1s method) and prekk (Chromogenicsubstrate S-2302) activities and the survivaltime of patients with LF , we studied 23 patients with severe decompensated state and followed them up to 2 years from the hospitalization. The clinical evaluation of LC could be followed in all but 2 patients. Of 21 patients 15 (71%) died,8 for LF and 7 for bleeding, and6survived. The survival of patients was highly related to the activities of prekk and factor VII;patients with higher activities survived more than those with lower ones. There was a significant correlation between prekk (r:0,89 p<0,001), factor VII (r:0,8 p<.0,001) and survival time. The study suggests that prekk and factor VII could be useful test for the identification of patients for liver transplantation.

Abstract:
The Population Council's Frontiers in Reproductive Health Program and the Policy and Research Division are collaborating with CARE India to conduct an operations research study to examine the feasibility and impact of adding livelihood counseling and training, savings activities, and follow-up support to the ongoing reproductive health program for adolescents. The short-term objective is to foster the development of alternative socialization processes for adolescent girls that encourage positive sexual and reproductive health behaviors. As noted in this project update, the study will produce a replicable model for CARE India and other agencies to use in adding livelihood activities to adolescent reproductive health programs. The intervention, which includes vocational counseling, vocational training, follow-up support, and savings activities, has begun operations in five slum areas. Thus far the project has demonstrated that it is feasible to provide short-term, nonformal training in vocational skills to adolescent girls living in the slums of Allahabad, and that such training can be successfully integrated within CARE India’s ASRHA (Action for Slum Dwellers' Reproductive Health, Allahabad) project activities.
