ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Bipolar disorder (BD) and unipolar depression (UD) are complex and multifactorial mental disorders characterized by mood swings, disability, and impaired quality of life. In the present study, we researched the roles of inflammatory cells and their value as inflammation markers in BD and UD. OBJECTIVE: Sixty-nine manic, 60 euthymic, and 70 UD patients and 60 sex-matched healthy volunteers (control group) were retrospectively analysed. Platelet (PLT), platelet distribution width (PDW), and red cell distribution width (RDW) levels were measured in four groups. The aim of this study was to evaluate PLT, PDW, and RDW levels patient with UD and two different phases of BD: euthymic and manic. RESULTS: In our study, 199 patients and 60 controls were included. There were no differences between the patients and the healthy control group participants in terms of age and sex. The bipolar episodes and the UD patient group were statistically significantly different from the healthy controls in terms of PLT, PDW, and RDW. CONCLUSION: Our study is the first in the literature to compare blood PLT, PDW, and RDW levels in bipolar episodes, UD patients, and healthy control groups. We believe that the levels of PLT, PDW, and RDW can be used as novel markers of bipolar episodes and UD. More detailed and larger prospective clinical studies are required to confirm these findings.
摘要简介:双相情感障碍(BD)和单相抑郁症(UD)是复杂的多因素精神障碍,其特征是情绪波动、残疾和生活质量受损。在本研究中,我们研究了炎症细胞在BD和UD中的作用及其作为炎症标志物的价值。目的:回顾性分析69例躁狂、60例常郁、70例UD患者和60例性别匹配的健康志愿者(对照组)。测定四组患者血小板(PLT)、血小板分布宽度(PDW)、红细胞分布宽度(RDW)水平。本研究的目的是评估UD和两种不同阶段双相障碍患者的PLT, PDW和RDW水平:心境和躁狂。结果:本研究纳入199例患者和60例对照组。在年龄和性别方面,患者与健康对照组参与者之间没有差异。在PLT、PDW和RDW方面,双相发作和UD患者组与健康对照组有统计学差异。结论:我们的研究是文献中第一个比较双相情感障碍发作、UD患者和健康对照组血液PLT、PDW和RDW水平的研究。我们认为PLT、PDW和RDW的水平可以作为双相情感障碍发作和UD的新标志物。需要更详细和更大规模的前瞻性临床研究来证实这些发现。

ABSTRACT Trichotillomania (TTM) is a disorder characterized by repetitive hair pulling resulting in hair loss and it is usually difficult to treat with a chronic course of illness. Currently, the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the most frequently prescribed drugs for adults with TTM. Various studies and case reports give mixed results. Therefore, the treatment effectiveness of SSRIs remains uncertain. There is a growing interest regarding the use of glutamatergic agents in obsessive compulsive disorder and obsessive compulsive spectrum disorder. Here, we report an 18-year-old female patient with TTM, which successfully treated with glutamate modulator n-acetylcysteine.
摘要:拔毛癖(TTM)是一种以反复拔毛导致脱发为特征的疾病,通常难以治疗,伴有慢性病程。目前,选择性血清素再摄取抑制剂(SSRIs)是成人TTM最常用的处方药。各种研究和病例报告给出了不同的结果。因此,SSRIs的治疗效果仍不确定。在强迫症和强迫症谱系障碍中使用谷氨酸能药物的兴趣越来越大。在这里,我们报告了一位18岁的女性TTM患者,她成功地用谷氨酸调节剂n-乙酰半胱氨酸治疗。

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: Psychological pain has been accepted as one of the most critical psychological risk factors underlying suicidal ideation and behaviour. Suicide is chosen as a way to get rid of intense, painful and unbearable psychological pain. Since the level of tolerance rather than the intensity of psychological pain was considered to be more predictive for suicide, we aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of Tolerance for Mental Pain Scale-10 (TMPS-10). METHODS: A total of 121 patients diagnosed with depression in 62 of them had previous suicide attempts and 105 healthy controls who applied to the outpatient clinics of Çukurova University Faculty of Medicine Psychiatry Department were included in the study. Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSIS), Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS), Psychache Scale (PS) and TMPS-10 were applied to participants. RESULTS: In the internal consistency analysis, Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.96 for enduring the pain, 0.96 for managing the pain, 0.98 for the whole scale, and item-total correlation coefficients were found to be between 0.87 and 0.93. The scale fit well to both the two-factor and single-factor structure in the confirmatory factor analysis. The multi-group confirmatory factor analysis showed that both the depressive patients and the control group interpreted the scale items in the same way. In convergent validity analysis, there was a negative, linear, high and statistically significant relationship between TMPS-10 scores and PS, BSIS, BDI and BHS scores (r = −0.935; −0.779; −0.890; −0.808; p < .0.001, respectively). In discriminant function analysis, TMPS-10 successfully differentiated the depressive group and the control group, as well as the depressive patients who did or did not attempt suicide (96.5%, 88.1%, respectively). CONCLUSION: The Turkish version of TMPS-10 is valid and reliable, and may be useful in research and clinical practices about suicide.
摘要目的:心理疼痛已被认为是自杀意念和行为背后最关键的心理危险因素之一。选择自杀是为了摆脱强烈的、痛苦的、难以忍受的心理痛苦。由于心理疼痛的耐受水平比心理疼痛的强度更能预测自杀,我们的目的是调查土耳其版心理疼痛耐受量表-10 (TMPS-10)的效度和信度。方法:121例抑郁症患者(其中62例有自杀倾向)和105例申请Çukurova大学医学院精神科门诊的健康对照者纳入研究。采用贝克抑郁量表(BDI)、贝克自杀意念量表(BSIS)、贝克绝望量表(BHS)、精神痛苦量表(PS)和TMPS-10量表对被试进行问卷调查。结果:在内部一致性分析中,忍受疼痛的Cronbach 's alpha系数为0.96,控制疼痛的Cronbach 's alpha系数为0.96,整个量表的Cronbach 's alpha系数为0.98,项目-总相关系数在0.87 ~ 0.93之间。在验证性因子分析中,量表对双因素结构和单因素结构均有较好的拟合。多组验证性因子分析结果显示,抑郁症患者与对照组对量表项目的理解方式相同。在收敛效度分析中,TMPS-10评分与PS、BSIS、BDI、BHS评分呈负向、线性、高度且有统计学意义(r =−0.935;−0.779;−0.890;−0.808;P < 0.001)。在判别函数分析中,TMPS-10成功区分了抑郁症组和对照组,以及有或没有自杀企图的抑郁症患者(分别为96.5%和88.1%)。结论:土耳其版TMPS-10量表有效可靠,可用于自杀研究和临床实践。

ABSTRACT The present study was conducted to identify clinical correlates of hazardous drinking (HD). The data were derived from the Korean Research for Development of Alcohol Addiction Diagnosis and Assessment System. Variable measurement were personal characteristics, lifetime alcohol use history, Motivational Structure Questionnaire for alcoholics, Alcohol Outcome Expectancies Scale, and Alcohol Dependence Scale. Behavioural, psychiatric, and psychological factors were evaluated by responses to the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, Jung Self Rating Depression Scale, Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-11, State Traits Anxiety Inventory, and State Trait Anger Expression Inventory. The valid sample comprised 295 male drinkers, 89 subjects (30.2%) were classified as HD, and 209 (69.8%) were in the non-HD (NHD) group by NIAAA criteria. The results of binary logistic analysis showed that age at the first blackout, coping, and social motives for alcohol use, and non-planning impulsiveness increased the likelihood of HD net of each other’s effects, and the final model explained 29.6% (Negelkerke R2) of the variation in HD.

ABSTRACT Objective: Dysregulation of biological rhythm is associated with reduced executive functioning and potentiating psychosis, which are essential for the Theory of Mind (ToM) among patients with schizophrenia. However, the association between cognitive dysfunction, emotional information and disruption of biological rhythm remains uncertain. Methods: Forty-one patients with schizophrenia and forty age, gender and smoking status-matched healthy controls were recruited into the study. The Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), The Stroop test, The Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (RMET), The Biological Rhythms Interview of Assessment in Neuropsychiatry (BRIAN) were used. Results: BRIAN total, sleep, activity and social scores were higher in patients with schizophrenia than healthy controls. Higher BRIAN score was correlated with lower RMET score; with higher PANSS total, positive and negative scores, and not correlated with executive functions. In the regression analysis, it was observed that gender and increased BRIAN score was independently associated with lower scores for RMET in a patient with schizophrenia. Conclusion: These results suggest that the disruption of biological rhythm might be associated with ToM in patients with schizophrenia. Future research should examine the relationship between biological rhythm and ToM to determine if any causal associations can be identified.
【摘要】目的:生物节律失调与精神分裂症患者执行功能下降和精神病加重有关,而执行功能下降和精神病加重对精神分裂症患者的心智理论(ToM)至关重要。然而,认知功能障碍、情绪信息和生物节律紊乱之间的关系仍不确定。方法:选取41例精神分裂症患者和40例年龄、性别、吸烟状况相匹配的健康对照进行研究。采用威斯康辛卡片分类测验(WCST)、Stroop测验、眼读心学测验(RMET)、神经精神病学评估生物节律访谈(BRIAN)。结果:精神分裂症患者的BRIAN总分、睡眠、活动和社交得分均高于健康对照组。BRIAN评分越高,RMET评分越低;PANSS总分、正、负得分较高,且与执行功能无关。在回归分析中,观察到性别和BRIAN评分升高与精神分裂症患者RMET评分降低独立相关。结论:这些结果提示生物节律紊乱可能与精神分裂症患者的ToM有关。未来的研究应该检查生物节律和汤姆之间的关系,以确定是否有任何因果关系可以确定。

ABSTRACT Objectives: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, that starts in early childhood and presents with deficiencies in social-communicational domains along with restricted and repetitive behaviours/interests. While genetic factors are dominant in its pathogenesis, many factors, including neurological, environmental and immunological have been identified. Furtheremore, although cerebellar dysfunction in the etiology of autism has been shown in different studies, the possible causes of the dysfunction and the role of neuroinflammation among these causes have not been clarified yet. Anti-Yo, anti-Hu, anti-Ri and anti-Amphiphysin antibodies have been found to be associated with cerebellar degeneration. The aim of the present study was to compare anti-Yo, anti-Hu, anti-Ri and anti- Amphiphysin antibodies and 8-OHdG values in blood using the ELISA method between ASD patients and healthy children to demonstrate the role of neuroinflammation as a potential cause of cerebellar dysfunction and DNA damage and evaluate the relationship between Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) scores in children diagnosed with ASD and these parameters. Methods: Thirty-five consecutive children between the ages of 3 and 12 referred to the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic of Harran University Hospital and diagnosed with ASD according to the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria were included in the study. The children did not have any chronic physical disorders and were treatment naive. Thirty-three healthy children between the ages of 3 and 12 without any physical or psychiatric disorders were included as the healthy control group. For psychiatric evaluation, a sociodemographic form and to measure the severity of autism, CARS was used. In the study, anti-Yo, anti-Hu, anti-Ri and anti-Amphiphysin antibodies and 8-OHdG values in blood were investigated using the ELISA method. Results: Thirty-five cases with autism (62.9% males) and thirty-three healthy controls (72.7% males) were included in the present study (p = 0.385). The median age was 6.0 in the ASD group and 7.0 in the control group (p = 0.146). Among ASD patients, anti-Ri antibody positivity was detected, while no anti-Ri antibody positivity was found in the control group (p = 0.002). In the ASD group, the anti-Hu and 8-OHdG values were found to be significantly higher than those of the controls (p < 0.001, p = 0.001); no significant difference was found between the ASD and control groups with regard to the anti-Yo and anti-Amphiphysin values (p = 0.113, p = 0.275). Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that antibodies against cerebellum may be present among children with ASD and DNA damage may occur due to oxidative stress.
目的:自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)是一种始于儿童早期的神经发育障碍,表现为社交交流领域的缺陷以及限制和重复的行为/兴趣。虽然遗传因素在其发病机制中占主导地位,但许多因素,包括神经、环境和免疫已被确定。此外,虽然小脑功能障碍在自闭症的病因学中已经在不同的研究中得到证实,但功能障碍的可能原因以及神经炎症在这些原因中的作用尚未明确。抗yo、抗hu、抗ri和抗amphiphysin抗体已被发现与小脑变性有关。本研究旨在通过ELISA方法比较ASD患者与健康儿童血液中抗yo、抗hu、抗ri、抗Amphiphysin抗体及8-OHdG值,以证明神经炎症是导致小脑功能障碍和DNA损伤的潜在原因,并评价ASD儿童儿童自闭症评定量表(CARS)评分与这些参数的关系。方法:选取连续35例根据DSM-5诊断标准就诊于哈兰大学医院儿童与青少年精神病学门诊,年龄在3 ~ 12岁之间,诊断为ASD的儿童。这些儿童没有任何慢性身体疾病,接受了幼稚治疗。33名年龄在3至12岁之间,没有任何身体或精神疾病的健康儿童被纳入健康对照组。对于精神病学评估,一种社会人口统计形式和衡量自闭症的严重程度,使用了CARS。本研究采用ELISA法检测血清中抗yo、抗hu、抗ri、抗amphiphysin抗体及8-OHdG值。结果:本研究共纳入35例自闭症患者(男性占62.9%)和33例健康对照组(男性占72.7%)(p = 0.385)。ASD组的中位年龄为6.0岁,对照组为7.0岁(p = 0.146)。ASD患者中检测到抗ri抗体阳性,而对照组未检测到抗ri抗体阳性(p = 0.002)。ASD组抗hu、8-OHdG值显著高于对照组(p < 0.001, p = 0.001);在抗yo和抗amphiphysin值方面,ASD组与对照组无显著差异(p = 0.113, p = 0.275)。结论:本研究结果提示ASD患儿可能存在抗小脑抗体,氧化应激可能导致DNA损伤。

The aim of the present study was to compare anti-Yo, anti-Hu, anti-Ri and anti- Amphiphysin antibodies and 8-OHdG values in blood using the ELISA method between ASD patients and healthy children to demonstrate the role of neuroinflammation as a potential cause of cerebellar dysfunction and DNA damage and evaluate the relationship between Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) scores in children diagnosed with ASD and these parameters. Methods: Thirty-five consecutive children between the ages of 3 and 12 referred to the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic of Harran University Hospital and diagnosed with ASD according to the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria were included in the study. The children did not have any chronic physical disorders and were treatment naive. Thirty-three healthy children between the ages of 3 and 12 without any physical or psychiatric disorders were included as the healthy control group. For psychiatric evaluation, a sociodemographic form and to measure the severity of autism, CARS was used. In the study, anti-Yo, anti-Hu, anti-Ri and anti-Amphiphysin antibodies and 8-OHdG values in blood were investigated using the ELISA method. Results: Thirty-five cases with autism (62.9% males) and thirty-three healthy controls (72.7% males) were included in the present study (p = 0.385). The median age was 6.0 in the ASD group and 7.0 in the control group (p = 0.146). Among ASD patients, anti-Ri antibody positivity was detected, while no anti-Ri antibody positivity was found in the control group (p = 0.002). In the ASD group, the anti-Hu and 8-OHdG values were found to be significantly higher than those of the controls (p < 0.001, p = 0.001); no significant difference was found between the ASD and control groups with regard to the anti-Yo and anti-Amphiphysin values (p = 0.113, p = 0.275). Conclusions: The results of the present study suggest that antibodies against cerebellum may be present among children with ASD and DNA damage may occur due to oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":20847,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatry and Clinical Psychopharmacology","volume":"37 1","pages":"840 - 846"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2019-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75643993","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Cyberbullying, has concerned professionals due to increased use of media over time and as predicted, this type of bullying is fairly common among adolescents. We aimed to define the prevalence of cyberbullying and cyber victimization, examine relationships between problematic smartphone (SP) use (PSU), psychiatric symptoms and emotion regulation difficulties in a clinical adolescent sample. Also, we aimed to predict risk factors of being an E-Victim and E-Bully. METHODS: One hundred and fifty adolescents have recruited the study. Demographic Information Form, Problematic Mobile Phone Usage Scale, Brief Symptom Inventory, Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale, E-Victimization–E-Bullying Scale were filled out by adolescents. RESULTS: Our results indicated that the prevalence of cybervictimization and cyberbullying were 62.6% and 53.3%, respectively. BEVEB (Both E-Victim and E-Bully) group adolescents were older than NVB (Non-Victim/Bully) groups. Access internet via own SP, PSU, problems in strategies and impulse control and were significantly higher and “lack of awareness” scores were significantly lower in BEVEB group than others. In addition, when compared with OEV (only E-Victims) group, BEVEB group had also higher hostility scores. Logistic regression analysis revealed that high scores of “lack of awareness” and higher E-bullying scores increase the risk of being an E-Victim; and higher scores of hostility and E-victimization and lower scores of “lack of awareness” (in other words being more aware of feelings) increase the risk of being an E-bully. CONCLUSIONS: According to analyses, contrary to our expectations, PSU was important but not an independent predictor of being an E-Victim/E-Bully. Our results also demonstrated an interesting finding: lack of awareness is a risk factor for being an E-victim. We interpreted this result as could not be aware of feelings increase the victimization risk. On the other hand, E-Bullies have higher hostility and victimization while having lower “lack of awareness” scores. It could be speculated that, re-victimization and being aware of hostility feelings could increase the cyberbullying among adolescents. In addition being an E-Bully could be a consequence of being an E-victim and increasing hostility and awareness over time. These results should be re-examined in larger clinical samples.
摘要背景:随着时间的推移,随着媒体使用的增加,网络欺凌一直受到专业人士的关注,正如预测的那样,这种类型的欺凌在青少年中相当普遍。我们的目的是定义网络欺凌和网络受害的流行程度,研究临床青少年样本中问题智能手机(SP)使用(PSU)、精神症状和情绪调节困难之间的关系。此外,我们还旨在预测成为电子受害者和电子欺凌者的危险因素。方法:150名青少年参与了这项研究。青少年填写《人口统计信息表》、《问题手机使用量表》、《症状简易量表》、《情绪调节困难量表》、《电子伤害-电子欺凌量表》。结果:网络欺凌和网络受害的发生率分别为62.6%和53.3%。BEVEB (E-Victim和E-Bully)组的青少年比NVB (Non-Victim/Bully)组的青少年年龄大。BEVEB组的网络接入能力、上网能力、策略问题和冲动控制得分显著高于其他组,而“缺乏意识”得分显著低于其他组。此外,与OEV组相比,BEVEB组的敌意得分也更高。Logistic回归分析显示,“缺乏意识”和“电子欺凌”得分越高,成为电子受害者的风险越高;敌意和电子欺凌得分越高,“缺乏意识”得分越低(换句话说,更清楚自己的感受),成为电子欺凌者的风险就越大。结论:根据分析,与我们的预期相反,PSU是重要的,但不是e -受害者/ e -欺凌的独立预测因子。我们的研究结果还显示了一个有趣的发现:缺乏意识是成为电子受害者的一个风险因素。我们将这一结果解释为无法意识到的情感增加了受害的风险。另一方面,电子欺凌者具有更高的敌意和受害倾向,而“缺乏意识”得分较低。由此可以推测,再次受害和敌意意识会增加青少年网络欺凌的发生。此外,成为电子欺凌者可能是成为电子受害者的结果,随着时间的推移,敌意和意识也会增加。这些结果应该在更大的临床样本中重新检验。

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVES: The objective of the study was to evaluate the birth order of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and ways of delivery at birth, together with the phenomenon of reproductive stoppage and the number of siblings in the case families (families of children with ASD in the study). METHODS: One hundred and ninety-six subjects with ASD and 54 healthy children were included into the study. Demographics were collected. Autism Behaviour Checklist (ABC), Aberrant Behaviour Checklist (AbBC), and Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) were administered. Depending on the type of data and on the objective of the assessment, Mann–Whitney U-test, chi-square test, and Spearman tests were used for statistical analysis. A p-value smaller than .05 was considered to be statistically significant. RESULTS: In the study group consisting of children with ASD, the rate of being the first-born child was determined to be more frequent, significantly, compared to the rate in the control group (p = .001). It was also found that 86.7% (n = 170) of the children in the ASD group had at least one sibling compared to the rate of 81.5% (n = 44) for their counterparts in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: Our study compared ASD group to controls in terms of birth order, demonstrating a significant difference for being the first-born child in the ASD group. Birth order can be considered to be one of the several environmental factors that will help in understanding ASD, in which environmental factors can be the cause of phenotypic complexity. For all that, in our study, it was observed that having a child with autism in the Turkish sample did not affect the decision for the next pregnancy.
摘要目的:本研究的目的是评估自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)患儿的出生顺序、出生时的分娩方式,以及病例家庭(本研究中有ASD患儿的家庭)的生殖停止现象和兄弟姐妹数量。方法:选取196例ASD患者和54例健康儿童作为研究对象。收集了人口统计数据。采用自闭症行为检查表(ABC)、异常行为检查表(AbBC)和儿童自闭症评定量表(CARS)。根据资料的类型和评估的目的,采用Mann-Whitney u检验、卡方检验和Spearman检验进行统计分析。p值小于0.05被认为具有统计学意义。结果:在由ASD儿童组成的研究组中,与对照组相比,第一胎的发生率被确定为更频繁,显著(p = 0.001)。研究还发现,86.7% (n = 170)的ASD组儿童至少有一个兄弟姐妹,而对照组的这一比例为81.5% (n = 44)。结论:我们的研究比较了ASD组和对照组在出生顺序上的差异,显示了ASD组中头胎的显著差异。出生顺序可以被认为是有助于理解ASD的几个环境因素之一,其中环境因素可能是表型复杂性的原因。尽管如此,在我们的研究中,观察到在土耳其样本中有一个患有自闭症的孩子并不影响下次怀孕的决定。

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of SSRIs on cornea and lens density, intraocular pressure (IOP) and anterior chamber parameters, including anterior chamber volume (ACV), anterior chamber depth (ACD), corneal volume (CV) and central corneal thickness (CCT), in patients with depression during a three-month follow-up period. METHOD: In this prospective study, 31 total patients, who were prescribed SSRIs for depression, were recruited. Sertraline, 50 mg/daily, was given to ten patients; 11 received Escitalopram, 10 mg/daily; and ten were treated with Fluoxetine, 20 mg/daily. The parameters recorded were corneal density (CD), lens density (LD), IOP, ACV, ACD, CV and CCT at the start of treatment, as well as at one-week, one-month, and three-month follow-ups. RESULTS: The study revealed that there was no risk of cataract development from three months of SSRI intake. Significant decrease in ACD was recorded at the one-week follow up; however, after three months, this decrease was insignificant compared to the baseline. ACV, CV, CCT, CD and LD showed no significant alterations in any of the follow up examinations over the three-month period. IOP, however, significantly fell (a P value of 0.004). CONCLUSION: In this study, SSRI use does not seem to be associated with an increased risk of cataract or glaucoma or with changes in CD and LD. Long-term follow-up is necessary to determine the actual risk of cataract or glaucoma with SSRI intake.
摘要:目的:研究SSRIs对抑郁症患者角膜和晶状体密度、眼压(IOP)和前房参数(包括前房体积(ACV)、前房深度(ACD)、角膜体积(CV)和角膜中央厚度(CCT)的影响。方法:在这项前瞻性研究中,共招募了31名服用SSRIs治疗抑郁症的患者。10例患者给予舍曲林50 mg/d;11例接受艾司西酞普兰10 mg/d;10例给予氟西汀20mg /d治疗。记录治疗开始时角膜密度(CD)、晶状体密度(LD)、IOP、ACV、ACD、CV和CCT以及随访1周、1个月和3个月时的参数。结果:研究显示,服用SSRI三个月后没有白内障发展的风险。在一周的随访中,ACD显著下降;然而,三个月后,与基线相比,这种下降并不显著。ACV、CV、CCT、CD和LD在三个月的随访检查中均无明显变化。IOP明显下降(P值为0.004)。结论:在本研究中,SSRI的使用似乎与白内障或青光眼的风险增加或CD和LD的变化无关。需要长期随访以确定SSRI摄入的白内障或青光眼的实际风险。

The psychometric properties of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD-7) among Korean university students 韩国大学生广泛性焦虑障碍量表(GAD-7)的心理测量特征
IF 0.7 4区 医学 Q4 PHARMACOLOGY & PHARMACY Pub Date : 2019-10-02 DOI: 10.1080/24750573.2019.1691320

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: The seven-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale (GAD-7) is a practical self-report measure that screens for the severity of Generalized Anxiety Disorder in primary care. Previous studies have shown that the GAD-7 is theoretically sound, but the results regarding its psychometric properties have been somewhat inconsistent with both adult and student samples. Despite these findings, the psychometric properties of the GAD-7 have remained untested among Korean university students, for whom the identification of efficient measures of these constructs is especially important. To determine the psychometric properties of the GAD-7, the present study examined the internal consistency, convergent validity, and underlying factor structure of the GAD-7 with a sample of Korean university students. METHODS: The sample consisted of 582 students attending a four-year university in South Korea. All participants completed the Korean version of the GAD-7, the Depression Anxiety, and Stress Scale–21 (DASS-21), and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). The factor structure of the GAD-7 was assessed by exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and its convergent validity was determined by investigating its correlations with the DASS-21 and PHQ-9. RESULTS: CFA procedures confirmed that a modified one-factor model was an acceptable solution. The internal consistency of the scale was excellent. The GAD-7 showed a moderate to strong correlation with the three subscales of the DASS-21 and with the PHQ-9, confirming convergent validity. CONCLUSIONS: The findings indicate that the modified GAD-7 is a reliable and valid instrument for assessing generalized anxiety symptoms in university students. Its use for research and health care practice is warranted.
摘要目的:7项广泛性焦虑障碍量表(GAD-7)是一种实用的自我报告量表,用于筛查初级保健中广泛性焦虑障碍的严重程度。先前的研究表明,GAD-7在理论上是合理的,但关于其心理测量特性的结果在成人和学生样本中都有些不一致。尽管有这些发现,GAD-7的心理测量特性仍未在韩国大学生中进行测试,对他们来说,确定这些构念的有效测量方法尤为重要。为了确定GAD-7的心理测量特性,本研究以韩国大学生为样本,检验了GAD-7的内部一致性、收敛效度和潜在因素结构。方法:样本由韩国一所四年制大学的582名学生组成。所有参与者都完成了韩国版的GAD-7、抑郁、焦虑和压力量表-21 (DASS-21)和患者健康问卷(PHQ-9)。采用探索性因子分析(EFA)和验证性因子分析(CFA)评估GAD-7的因子结构,并通过考察其与DASS-21和PHQ-9的相关性来确定其收敛效度。结果:CFA程序证实,改进的单因素模型是可接受的解决方案。该量表的内部一致性良好。GAD-7与DASS-21的三个分量表和PHQ-9表现出中等至强的相关性,证实了收敛效度。结论:改进后的GAD-7是一种可靠、有效的评估大学生广泛性焦虑症状的工具。将其用于研究和保健实践是合理的。
