Objective
Theoretical and empirical support for the role of dysfunctional beliefs, safety behaviors, and increased sleep effort in the maintenance of insomnia has begun to accumulate. It is not yet known how these factors predict sleep disturbance and fatigue occurring in the context of anxiety and mood disorders. It was hypothesized that these three insomnia-specific cognitive–behavioral factors would be uniquely associated with insomnia and fatigue among patients with emotional disorders after adjusting for current symptoms of anxiety and depression and trait levels of neuroticism and extraversion.Methods
Outpatients with a current anxiety or mood disorder (N = 63) completed self-report measures including the Dysfunctional Beliefs About Sleep Scale (DBAS), Sleep-Related Safety Behaviors Questionnaire (SRBQ), Glasgow Sleep Effort Scale (GSES), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), NEO Five-Factor Inventory (FFI), and the 21-item Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS). Multivariate path analysis was used to evaluate study hypotheses.Results
SRBQ (B = .60, p < .001, 95% CI [.34, .86]) and GSES (B = .31, p < .01, 95% CI [.07, .55]) were both significantly associated with PSQI. There was a significant interaction between SRBQ and DBAS (B = .25, p < .05, 95% CI [.04, .47]) such that the relationship between safety behaviors and fatigue was strongest among individuals with greater levels of dysfunctional beliefs.Conclusion
Findings are consistent with cognitive behavioral models of insomnia and suggest that sleep-specific factors might be important treatment targets among patients with anxiety and depressive disorders with disturbed sleep. 相似文献2.

Objective
This study conducted a simulation study for computer-adaptive testing based on the Aachen Depression Item Bank (ADIB), which was developed for the assessment of depression in persons with somatic diseases. Prior to computer-adaptive test simulation, the ADIB was newly calibrated.Methods
Recalibration was performed in a sample of 161 patients treated for a depressive syndrome, 103 patients from cardiology, and 103 patients from otorhinolaryngology (mean age 44.1, SD = 14.0; 44.7% female) and was cross-validated in a sample of 117 patients undergoing rehabilitation for cardiac diseases (mean age 58.4, SD = 10.5; 24.8% women). Unidimensionality of the itembank was checked and a Rasch analysis was performed that evaluated local dependency (LD), differential item functioning (DIF), item fit and reliability. CAT-simulation was conducted with the total sample and additional simulated data.Results
Recalibration resulted in a strictly unidimensional item bank with 36 items, showing good Rasch model fit (item fit residuals < |2.5|) and no DIF or LD. CAT simulation revealed that 13 items on average were necessary to estimate depression in the range of − 2 and + 2 logits when terminating at SE ≤ 0.32 and 4 items if using SE ≤ 0.50. Receiver Operating Characteristics analysis showed that θ estimates based on the CAT algorithm have good criterion validity with regard to depression diagnoses (Area Under the Curve ≥ .78 for all cut-off criteria).Conclusion
The recalibration of the ADIB succeeded and the simulation studies conducted suggest that it has good screening performance in the samples investigated and that it may reasonably add to the improvement of depression assessment. 相似文献3.

Objective
The DiaMind trial showed beneficial immediate effects of mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) on emotional distress, but not on diabetes distress and HbA1c. The aim of the present report was to examine if the effects would be sustained after six month follow-up.Methods
In the DiaMind trial, 139 outpatients with diabetes (type-I or type-II) and a lowered level of emotional well-being were randomized into MBCT (n = 70) or a waiting list with treatment as usual (TAU: n = 69). Primary outcomes were perceived stress, anxiety and depressive symptoms, and diabetes distress. Secondary outcomes were, among others, health status, and glycemic control (HbA1c).Results
Compared to TAU, MBCT showed sustained reductions at follow-up in perceived stress (p < .001, d = .76), anxiety (p < .001, assessed by HADS d = .83; assessed by POMS d = .92), and HADS depressive symptoms (p = .004, d = .51), but not POMS depressive symptoms when using Bonferroni correction for multiple testing (p = .016, d = .48). No significant between-group effect was found on diabetes distress and HbA1c.Conclusion
This study showed sustained benefits of MBCT six months after the intervention on emotional distress in people with diabetes and a lowered level of emotional well-being.Trial registration

Objective
The Eating Disorder Inventory (EDI) is used worldwide in research and treatment of eating disorders (EDs). Using the latest version (EDI-3: 91 items), we extracted the best screening items for a diagnosis of anorexia (AN) and bulimia (BN) nervosa.Method
A patient sample of 561 women was recruited from an ED treatment centre in Denmark, and a comparison group of 878 women was randomly selected from the general population. An ED diagnosis was determined according to the Eating Disorder Examination Interview, yielding 84 AN and 202 BN patients.Results
Only two EDI items (Cronbach's α = .79) were needed to achieve a superior screening capability of BN (sensitivity = .94, specificity = .94). An adequate screening of AN was possible by using three items (α = .71; sensitivity = .91, specificity = .86).Discussion
The present study provides an even more economical and reliable screening of AN and BN compared with existing screening instruments. Implications for DSM-5 are also discussed. 相似文献5.
Background
Hostility is associated with altered metabolic activity but little research has examined sex and/or age differences using a global index of metabolic dysfunction or examined different aspects of hostility.Methods
The moderating effect of sex and age on the associations between three aspects of hostility (cynical attitude, angry affect, quarrelsome behavior in daily living) and metabolic burden (number of metabolic parameters in the higher quartile) were evaluated in 188 healthy men and women (Mage = 41; SD = 11.34). Three years later, metabolic burden was measured again in 133 participants.Results
At study onset, quarrelsome behavior was associated with greater metabolic burden in men and women (Beta = .144; p < .05). After 3 yrs, cynical hostility predicted increased metabolic burden among mid-age and older individuals (b = .013 and .046 respectively; p < .001).Conclusion
The aspect of hostility that is most closely associated with metabolic burden depends on the age of the participants and whether measures are concurrent or prospective. 相似文献6.

Objective
Given the prevalence and costs of somatoform disorders, it is important to identify and adequately treat these patients as early as possible. Instruments assessing experiences, perceptions, and behaviors of somatoform disorders are rare. In this study we evaluated the structure and validity of the German version of the Health Attitude Survey (HAS), a multidimensional self-report questionnaire for somatoform disorders.Methods
This cross-sectional study involved 1452 participants. The sample was randomly split for independent exploratory (EFA) and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA). Each of the two samples (n1 = 726; n2 = 726) included patients with organic vertigo and current mental disorders (somatoform and other mental disorders). Somatic symptom burden was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-15).Results
The CFA did not confirm the original HAS factor structure. The EFA revealed six factors. To enhance the fit of the model, we deleted two factors with the poorest reliability and items with low factor loadings. A modified and shortened version achieved good fit indices (CFI = 0.92; RMSEA = 0.068). It consists of 14 instead of 27 items and four scales (“dissatisfaction with care,” “frustration with ill health,” “high utilization of care,” “excessive health worry”). HAS subscales discriminated among somatoform patients and physically ill and/or patients with a mental but not somatoform disorder, controlled for age, sex and number of (comorbid) mental diagnoses, confirming its construct validity.Conclusion
A modified shortened version of the HAS appears to be a reliable, valid, and economical instrument for assessing facets of somatoform disorders or of the recently published DSM-5 Somatic Symptom Disorder. 相似文献7.

Background
Several lines of evidence suggest that brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an important role in weight regulation and eating behavior, and poorly balanced diets lead to a decrease in blood BDNF levels. However, studies regarding BDNF blood levels in eating disorders (ED) have yielded inconsistent results. We measured serum concentrations of BDNF and assessed behavior and cognition related to eating in ED patients and control subjects.Methods
Forty female drug-free patients [19 with anorexia nervosa (AN), 21 with bulimia nervosa (BN)], who did not meet the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder, and 24 age-matched normal control subjects were enrolled in the current study. We evaluated eating-related psychopathology and depressive symptoms using the Eating Disorder Inventory-2 (EDI-2), Eating Attitude Test-26 (EAT-26) and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), and measured serum BDNF levels by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results
Compared to normal controls, serum levels of BDNF were significantly reduced in AN, but not in BN. There was a significant positive correlation between serum BDNF levels and BMI in both AN patients (r = .649, p = .003) and BN patients (r = .626, p = .002). However, no correlation between serum BDNF levels and BMI was detected in the controls. Furthermore, there was a significant negative correlation between serum BDNF levels and the oral control subscale scores of EAT in both AN patients (r = − .506, p = .027) and BN patients (r = − .511, p = .018); whereas, no correlation was detected in normal controls.Conclusion
Our study demonstrated that individuals showing more extreme food intake regulation were those with lower serum BDNF levels. This finding is contrary to that in mice where mice with reduced BDNF levels showed aberrant eating behavior. This result suggests that BDNF is no longer functioning appropriately in ED patients, which could be an important factor in the pathophysiological of ED. 相似文献8.

Objective
Optimism is thought to be associated with long-term favourable outcomes for patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Our objective was to examine the association between optimism and post-operative pain and physical symptoms in CABG patients.Methods
We assessed optimism pre-operatively in 197 adults undergoing CABG surgery, and then followed them up 6–8 weeks after the procedure to measure affective pain, pain intensity, and physical symptom reporting directly pertaining to CABG surgery.Results
Greater optimism measured pre-operatively was significantly associated with lower pain intensity (β = − 0.150, CI = − 0.196 to − 0.004, p = .042) and fewer physical symptoms following surgery (β = − 0.287, CI = − 0.537 to − 0.036, p = .025), but not with affective pain, after controlling for demographic, clinical and behavioural covariates, including negative affectivity.Conclusions
Optimism is a modest, yet significant, predictor of pain intensity and physical symptom reporting after CABG surgery. Having positive expectations may promote better recovery. 相似文献9.

Objective
This study examined if associations between body mass index (BMI) and mental and physical health were independent of genetic and familial factors.Method
Data from 2831 twins (66% female) were used in an epidemiological co-twin control design with measures of BMI and mental and physical health outcomes. Generalized estimating equation regressions assessed relationships between BMI and health outcomes controlling for interdependency among twins and demographics. Within-pair regression analyses examined the association of BMI with health outcomes controlling for genetic and familial influences.Results
Adjusted analyses with individual twins found associations in women between BMI and perceived stress (P= .01) and depression (P= .002), and the link between BMI and depression (P= .03) was significant in men. All physical health outcomes were significantly related to BMI. Once genetic and familial factors were taken into account, mental health outcomes were no longer significantly associated with BMI. BMI in women remained related to ratings of physical health (P= .01) and body pain (P= .004), independent of genetic and familial influences.Conclusion
These findings suggest that genetic and familial factors may account for the relationship between increased weight and poor mental health. 相似文献10.

Objective
Diverse electrophysiological abnormalities have been associated with schizophrenia, but the underlying causes remain elusive. We tested whether the altered oxidative stress in schizophrenia contributes to the electrophysiological abnormalities.Methods
We used an auditory oddball task to measure mismatch negativity (MMN) and gamma band response on 29 schizophrenia patients and 25 normal controls. Oxidative stress was assessed by monomeric glutathione (GSH, reduced form) and glutathione disulfide (GSSG, oxidized form).Results
Patients had reduced MMN (p = 0.015) and reduced power of gamma band responses at 21–40 Hz and 41–85 Hz (all p < 0.001). GSH was significantly lower (p < 0.001) while %GSSG was higher (p = 0.023) in patients compared with controls. MMN was correlated with GSH in controls; while 21–40 Hz responses were correlated with GSH in patients. Lower GSH and higher GSSG levels were associated with low community functioning (p = 0.018). Multivariate mediation modeling showed that gamma band at 21–40 Hz was a significant mediator for GSH effect on community functions.Conclusions
High beta/low gamma range (21–40 Hz) responses may be an intermediate biomarker indexing oxidative stress and its effect on clinical functions.Significance
Electrophysiological abnormalities and associated clinical functional changes may in part be associated with heightened oxidative stress in schizophrenia. 相似文献11.

Objective
We examined the association between the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) and all-cause mortality in 4462 middle-aged Vietnam-era veterans.Methods
We split the study population into half-samples. In each half, we used proportional hazards (Cox) regression to test the 550 MMPI items' associations with mortality over 15 years. In all participants, we subjected significant (p < .01) items in both halves to principal-components analysis (PCA). We used Cox regression to test whether these components predicted mortality when controlling for other predictors (demographics, cognitive ability, health behaviors, and mental/physical health).Results
Eighty-nine items were associated with mortality in both half-samples. PCA revealed Neuroticism/Negative Affectivity, Somatic Complaints, Psychotic/Paranoia, and Antisocial components, and a higher-order component, Personal Disturbance. Individually, Neuroticism/Negative Affectivity (HR = 1.55; 95% CI = 1.39, 1.72), Somatic Complaints (HR = 1.66; 95% CI = 1.52, 1.80), Psychotic/Paranoid (HR = 1.44; 95% CI = 1.32, 1.57), Antisocial (HR = 1.79; 95% CI = 1.59, 2.01), and Personal Disturbance (HR = 1.74; 95% CI = 1.58, 1.91) were associated with risk. Including covariates attenuated these associations (28.4 to 54.5%), though they were still significant. After entering Personal Disturbance into models with each component, Neuroticism/Negative Affectivity and Somatic Complaints were significant, although Neuroticism/Negative Affectivity's were now protective (HR = 0.73; 95% CI = 0.58, 0.92). When the four components were entered together with or without covariates, Somatic Complaints and Antisocial were significant risk factors.Conclusions
Somatic Complaints and Personal Disturbance are associated with increased mortality risk. Other components' effects varied as a function of variables in the model. 相似文献12.

Backgrounds
Enoxaparin, low-molecular-weight heparin, has become a routine thromboprophylaxis in general surgery.Study design
A retrospective cohort study was performed in 281 patients who underwent hepatic resections for liver cancers from 2011 to 2013. These patients were divided into two groups; an enoxaparin (-) group (n = 228) and an enoxaparin (+) group (n = 53). Short-term surgical results including venous thromboembolism (VTE) and portal vein thrombosis (PVT) were compared.Results
In the enoxaparin (+) group, the patients’ age (65 vs. 69 years; p = 0.01) and BMI (22.9 vs. 24.4; p < 0.01) were significantly higher. According to the symptomatic VTE, symptomatic pulmonary embolism occurred in one patient (0.4%) in the enoxaparin (-) group, but the complication rate was not significantly different (p = 0.63). The complication rate of PVT was significantly lower in the enoxaparin (+) group (10 vs. 2%; p = 0.04). The independent risk factors for PVT were an operation time ≥ 300 minutes (Odds ratio 6.66) and non-treatment with enoxaparin (Odds ratio 2.49).Conclusions
Postoperative anticoagulant therapy with enoxaparin could prevent PVT in patients who underwent hepatic resection for liver cancers. 相似文献13.

Objectives
We compare findings from 10 years of experience evaluating physicians referred for fitness-to-practice assessment to determine whether those referred for disruptive behavior are more or less likely to be declared fit for duty than those referred for mental health, substance abuse or sexual misconduct.Method
Deidentified data from 381 physicians evaluated by the Vanderbilt Comprehensive Assessment Program (2001–2012) were analyzed and compared to general physician population data and also to previous reports of physician psychiatric diagnosis found by MEDLINE search.Results
Compared to the physicians referred for disruptive behavior (37.5% of evaluations), each of the other groups was statistically significantly less likely to be assessed as fit for practice [substance use, %: odds ratio (OR)=0.22, 95% confidence interval (CI)=0.10–0.47, P< .001; mental health, %: OR=0.14, 95% CI=0.06–0.31, P< .001; sexual boundaries, %: OR=0.27, 95% CI=0.13–0.58, P= .001].Conclusions
The number of referrals to evaluate physicians presenting with behavior alleged to be disruptive to clinical care increased following the 2008 Joint Commission guidelines that extended responsibility for professional conduct outside the profession itself to the institutions wherein physicians work. Better strategies to identify and manage disruptive physician behavior may allow those physicians to return to practice safely in the workplace. 相似文献14.
Objective
To assess the association of subjective quality of life as measured by the Subjective Well-being under Neuroleptic Treatment questionnaire (SWN-K) with neuropsychological functioning; to address interactions with the SWN-K domain mental functioning as a measure of subjective cognitive dysfunction; and to examine the interaction of subjective well-being and psychopathology ratings.Methods
Forty-five patients diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorder (SSD) were assessed regarding subjective well-being (SWN-K), neuropsychological impairment, and psychopathology (Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale; BPRS).Results
After controlling for multiple comparisons, SWN-K total score showed significant positive correlations with concentration/attention (r = .498), working memory (r = .537), verbal memory (r = .522), and global cognition (r = .459). No correlations of SWN mental functioning and neuropsychological impairment remained significant after Bonferroni correction. Correlations between SWN-K subscales and neuropsychological functioning were generally positive, indicating higher subjective well-being in patients with better neurocognition. In multivariate analyses, global cognition was a significant predictor (p = .011), accounting for 19.7% of SWN total score variance. Adding BPRS total score as predictor (p = .054) explained an additional 6.9% of SWN-K variance. Linear regression analyses with SWN-K mental functioning as dependent variable did not yield statistically significant models.Conclusion
Subjective well-being and objective neuropsychological functioning show only moderate associations and can be seen as largely independent parameters. In particular, subjective mental functioning cannot serve as a proxy for objective neuropsychological testing. 相似文献15.
Objective
Optimism has been linked with an array of positive health outcomes at the individual level. However, researchers have not examined how a spouse's optimism might impact an individual's health. We hypothesized that being optimistic (and having an optimistic spouse) would both be associated with better health.Methods
Participants were 3940 adults (1970 couples) from the Health and Retirement Study, a nationally representative panel study of American adults over the age of 50. Participants were tracked for four years and outcomes included: physical functioning, self-rated health, and number of chronic illnesses. We analyzed the dyadic data using the actor–partner interdependence model.Results
After controlling for several psychological and demographic factors, a person's own optimism and their spouse's optimism predicted better self-rated health and physical functioning (bs = .08–.25, ps < .01). More optimistic people also reported better physical functioning (b = −.11, p < .01) and fewer chronic illnesses (b = −.01, p < .05) over time. Further, having an optimistic spouse uniquely predicted better physical functioning (b = − .09, p < .01) and fewer chronic illnesses (b = − .01, p < .05) over time. The strength of the relationship between optimism and health did not diminish over time.Conclusions
Being optimistic and having an optimistic spouse were both associated with better health. Examining partner effects is important because such analyses reveal the unique role that spouses play in promoting health. These findings may have important implications for future health interventions. 相似文献16.

Objective
There is paucity of information on epilepsy and suicide in Nigeria. The objective of this study therefore was to assess the prevalence and determinants of suicide risk among adults with epilepsy (AWE) in Kaduna, Nigeria.Method
We administered the suicidality module of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, the three-item Oslo Social Support Scale and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale to 170 consecutive AWE attending the outpatient clinic of Federal Neuropsychiatric Hospital, Kaduna, between January and June 2011 to determine the prevalence of suicide risk, the level of social support and the psychological symptoms, respectively. We also recorded the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of the subjects.Results
There are 99 males and 71 females. The subject’s mean age was 28.7±12.1 years. The prevalence of suicide risk was 20.0%. Short seizure-free periods (χ2= 4.658, P= .031), previous suicide attempts (χ2= 12.216, P< .001), anxiety symptoms (χ2= 5.075, P= .024) and depressive symptoms (χ2= 5.093, P= .016) were significantly associated with suicidal tendencies. However, after a logistic regression analysis, none of the above variables predicted suicide risk.Conclusion
Suicide risk is common among AWE. Poor seizure control, previous suicidal attempts and emotional distress are associated factors. 相似文献17.

Background
The Schedule for the Assessment of Insight–Expanded Version (SAI-E) consists of 11 items that encompass: awareness of having a mental illness, ability to rename psychotic phenomena as abnormal, and compliance with treatment.Aims
To translate into Arabic and validate the Tunisian version of this instrument.Method
The Arabic translation of the SAI-E was obtained by the “forward/backward translation” method. Adaptations were made after a pilot study involving 20 outpatients with schizophrenia and after taking account the opinions of 15 experts in psychiatry.For validation, 150 outpatients suffering from schizophrenia were recruited by a random drawing in the psychiatric department in Sousse (Tunisia).For factor analysis, principal components analysis and Varimax rotation were adopted. Convergent validity was assessed by correlating the translated scale with the G12 item (lack of judgment and awareness of the disease) of the positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS).Internal consistency was assessed by Cronbach alpha coefficient and inter-rater reliability was assessed by the use of intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC).Results
Regarding construct validity, factor analysis revealed three factors that were responsible for 70.2% of the variance.As for concurrent validity, we found a negative correlation between the score of the SAI-E and that of the G12 item of the PANSS (r = − 0.82 and p < 10−3).The study of internal consistency between the 11 items was found to be good (α = 0.82). The test–retest reliability was satisfactory (r = 0.8, p < 10−3), and so was inter-rater reliability (ICC = 0.84).Conclusion
In the Tunisian cultural context, the SAI-E presented three factors with good consistency and an inter-rater reliability compatible with the insight dimensions that are intended to be evaluated. 相似文献18.

Background
Surges in heart rate (HR) and blood pressure (BP) at apnea termination contribute to the hypertension seen in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Because childhood OSA prevalence peaks in the preschool years, we aimed to characterize the cardiovascular response to obstructive events in preschool-aged children.Methods
Clinically referred children aged 3–5 years were grouped by obstructive apnea–hypopnea index (OAHI) into the following: primary snoring (PS) (OAHI ? 1 event/h [n = 21]), mild OSA (OAHI > 1– ? 5 [n = 32]), and moderate to severe (MS) OSA (OAHI > 5 [n = 28]). Beat-to-beat pulse transit time (PTT), an inverse continuous indicator of BP changes, and HR were averaged during the two halves (early and late) and during the peak after (post) each obstructive event and were expressed as percentage change from late- to post-event.Results
We analyzed 422 events consisting of 55 apneas and 367 hypopneas. A significant post-event increase in HR and fall in PTT occurred in all severity groups (P < .05 for all). A greater response was associated with OSA, nonrapid eye movement sleep (NREM), cortical arousal, hypopneas, and oxygen desaturation (P < .05 for all).Conclusions
Obstructive events elicit acute cardiovascular changes in preschool children. Such circulatory perturbations have been implicated in the development of hypertension, and our findings complement previous studies to suggest a cumulative impact of snoring on the cardiovascular system from childhood into adulthood. 相似文献19.

Introduction
Individuals with multiple versus single suicide attempts present a more severe clinical picture and may be at greater risk for suicide. Yet group differences within military samples have been vastly understudied.Purpose
The objective is to determine demographic, diagnostic, and psychosocial differences, based on suicide attempt status, among military inpatients admitted for suicide-related events.Method
A retrospective chart review design was used with a total of 423 randomly selected medical records of psychiatric admissions to a military hospital from 2001 to 2006.Results
Chi-square analyses indicated that individuals with multiple versus single suicide attempts were significantly more likely to have documented childhood sexual abuse (p =.025); problem substance use (p = .001); mood disorder diagnosis (p = .005); substance disorder diagnosis (p =.050); personality disorder not otherwise specified diagnosis (p =.018); and Axis II traits or diagnosis (p = .038) when compared to those with a single attempt history. Logistic regression analyses showed that males with multiple suicide attempts were more likely to have problem substance use (p = .005) and a mood disorder diagnosis (p =.002), while females with a multiple attempt history were more likely to have a history of childhood sexual (p =.027).Discussion
Clinically meaningful differences among military inpatients with single versus multiple suicide attempts exist. Targeted Department of Defense suicide prevention and intervention efforts that address the unique needs of these two specific at-risk subgroups are additionally needed. 相似文献20.
