The efficacy of psychotherapeutic interventions for the acute treatment of postpartum depression is strongly supported by empirical data, which suggest that counseling is of benefit as a stand-alone treatment for postpartum depression. Given the paucity of treatment trials using medication for postpartum depression, and the fact that psychotherapeutic interventions do not confer any "exposure" risks to breastfeeding infants, the data also suggest that psychotherapy should be considered a first-line treatment, rather than as an adjunct to medication treatment. There is also some data supporting the use of psychotherapy as a means of preventing postpartum depression, though research is still needed regarding the type of interventions to be used and the types of patients towards whom the interventions should be directed. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Although there is good evidence that cognitive therapy (CBT) lessens relapse and recurrence in unipolar depression, the duration of this effect is not known. METHOD: One hundred and fifty-eight subjects, from a randomized controlled trial of CBT plus medication and clinical management versus medication and clinical management alone, were followed 6 years after randomization (4 1/2 years after completion of CBT) and the longitudinal course assessed. RESULTS: Effects in prevention of relapse and recurrence were found to persist, with weakening, and were not fully lost until 3 1/2 years after the end of CBT. Residual symptoms were also lessened. CONCLUSIONS: The effect of CBT in reduction of relapse and recurrence persists for several years. The potential value of subsequent additional CBT some time after cessation should be explored. 相似文献

We assessed the length and the quality of remission of 13 unipolar endogenous depressed patients, DST non-suppressors before treatment, in a 2-year prospective study. During this period, we recorded stressful life events. Persistent dexamethasone non-suppression, after treatment and complete clinical recovery, correlated highly with early clinical relapse. All six non-normalizers but only one normalizer were rehospitalized within the following 2 years for a major depressive relapse. Persistent DST non-suppression was unrelated to any impact of drug discontinuation, the occurrence of stressful life events or the length of illness-free intervals in the patient's prior course of illness. Persistent DST non-suppression appears to have significant prognostic value. 相似文献

Relapse and recurrence following response to acute-phase treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) are prevalent and costly. In a meta-analysis of 28 studies including 1,880 adults, the authors reviewed the world's published literature on cognitive-behavioral therapies (CT) aimed at preventing relapse-recurrence in MDD. Results indicate that after discontinuation of acute-phase treatment, many responders to CT relapse-recur (29% within 1 year and 54% within 2 years). These rates appear comparable to those associated with other depression-specific psychotherapies but lower than those associated with pharmacotherapy. Among acute-phase treatment responders, continuation-phase CT reduced relapse-recurrence compared with assessment only at the end of continuation treatment (21% reduction) and at follow-up (29% reduction). Continuation-phase CT also reduced relapse-recurrence compared with other active continuation treatments at the end of continuation treatment (12% reduction) and at follow-up (14% reduction). The authors discuss implications for research and patient care and suggest directions, with methodological refinements, for future studies. 相似文献

The purpose of the study was to evaluate efficacy of poliphepan and hepabene as components of complex therapy in patients with chronic cholecystitis (CC). The subjects were 33 CC patients with biliary tract (BT) dyskinesia and biliar sludge. Application of the drugs led to significant improvement of clinical symptoms and the parameters of BT functional condition, as well as to decrease of bile lithogenicity and improvement of life quality. 相似文献

Metacognitive awareness is a cognitive set in which negative thoughts/feelings are experienced as mental events, rather than as the self. The authors hypothesized that (a) reduced metacognitive awareness would be associated with vulnerability to depression and (b) cognitive therapy (CT) and mindfulness-based CT (MBCT) would reduce depressive relapse by increasing metacognitive awareness. They found (a) accessibility of metacognitive sets to depressive cues was less in a vulnerable group (residually depressed patients) than in nondepressed controls; (b) accessibility of metacognitive sets predicted relapse in residually depressed patients; (c) where CT reduced relapse in residually depressed patients, it increased accessibility of metacognitive sets; and (d) where MBCT reduced relapse in recovered depressed patients, it increased accessibility of metacognitive sets. CT and MBCT may reduce relapse by changing relationships to negative thoughts rather than by changing belief in thought content. 相似文献

Despite significant progress in improving the pre- and postexposure prophylaxis of human rabies, the development of better and more cost-effective vaccines and antiviral therapeutics remains a major goal for the treatment of human rabies, the control of animal rabies and particularly for the eradication of rabies virus reservoirs in terrestrial wildlife. In this review, we discuss the structural requirements for an effective rabies vaccine, as well as new strategies currently in use for the development of safer and more potent rabies vaccines for rabies prophylaxis and eradication. Finally, we discuss new immune therapeutics aimed at replacing the conventional administration of antirabies immunoglobulin used in rabies post-exposure prophylaxis in humans. 相似文献

Lithium has a well-recognized role in treating acute mania and serving as a prophylaxis against recurrent bipolar affective illness. Studies in the past few years have shown that the drug may also be used to prevent recurrences of unipolar depression. As a treatment for acute unipolar depression it is less effective than the standard antidepressant drugs or electroconvulsive therapy. However, a therapeutic trial of lithium may be indicated in acutely depressed patients who fail to respond to conventional treatment. 相似文献

This is a review of the studies comparing unipolar and bipolar depression, with focus on the course, symptomatology, neurobiology, and psychosocial literatures. These are reviewed with one question in mind: does the evidence support diagnosing bipolar and unipolar depressions as the same disorder or different? The current nomenclature of bipolar and unipolar disorders has resulted in research that compares these disorders as a whole, without considering depression separately from mania within bipolar disorder. Future research should investigate two broad categories of depression and mania as separate disease processes that are highly comorbid. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: It has been suggested that patients with bipolar disorder may have an increased sensitivity to dopaminergic (DA) compounds. This was investigated by measuring growth hormone (GH) or prolactin (PRL) response to apomorphine (APO), a dopamine receptor agonist, in patients with bipolar depression, unipolar depression and control subjects. METHODS: Fourteen patients in an episode of bipolar depression (BP), 15 in an episode of unipolar depression (UP) and 19 age- and gender-matched control subjects (C) participated. The growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL) responses to subcutaneous administration of 0.005 or 0.008 mg/kg APO were measured over 2 h. RESULTS: The rise in GH was greater with the higher APO dose. Both the GH rise and the PRL fall following APO were similar in BP, UP and C. Neither the GH or PRL responses in BP and UP were affected by successful treatment of the depressive episode. CONCLUSION: Our findings do not indicate an altered sensitivity of DA neurones in the hypothalamic-pituitary system in either bipolar or unipolar depression. 相似文献

Depressed patients (unipolar) were given one of the following combinations in an attempt to test aspects of the 'amine hypothesis' and to find a preferential therapy: (1) clomipramine; (2) clomipramine and tryptophan; (3) desipramine and clomipramine, and (4) desipramine and tryptophan. Treatment (2) should have given optimal potentiation of 5-HT neurones and (3) and (4) should have acted similarly on both serotoninergic and adrenergic pathways. In no group was there any evidence of accelerated recovery, indicating that the process of conversion to normal mood may be more complex than suggested by most versions of the amine hypothesis. 相似文献

In two experimental sessions, we assessed early- and late-onset acoustic startle eyeblink modulation and subjective ratings of emotional pictures by nondepressed participants and by unipolar depressed participants. Depressed participants were assessed before and after treatment with the antidepressant medication Bupropion SR. Both depressed and nondepressed participants exhibited arousal-dependent startle modulation to early probes occurring 300 ms after picture onset. Nondepressed participants demonstrated the expected valence-dependent startle modulation to late probes (3,500-4,500 ms post-onset). In contrast, the late-probe blink magnitudes of depressed patients were unrelated to picture valence. This pattern of group differences was not moderated by treatment. There were no between-group differences in self-report ratings to pictures. These results suggest that depression may be characterized by anomalous responses to affective stimuli and that startle modulation can be a more sensitive index of affective response deficits linked to depression than self-report measures. 相似文献

The authors review several reported trials of tricyclic administration to ascertain its efficacy as continuation and maintenance therapy in patients with unipolar depression. Insufficient evidence has been accumulated to indicate that maintenance therapy (beyond eight months after recovery from an initial depressive episode) protects against recurrence. But studies do demonstrate that continuation therapy (within eight months of recovery) is useful in the prevention of relapse. It is, nevertheless, important for clinicians to evaluate each patient individually. 相似文献

Environmental rather than genetic factors appear to be responsible for the causation of cancers involving epithelial surfaces, especially oropharyngeal cancers, cancers of the gastro-intestinal tract, cancers of the liver and gall-bladder, cancers of the cervix uteri and lung cancers. Epithelial surfaces which have mucus-bearing cells are particularly prone, because if these mucus cells are surrounded by an alkaline milieu over a prolonged period, the mucous of the epithelial cells is rendered fluid and is removed from the cells, of which it forms an integral part. This leads to proliferative changes with metaplasia, cell-atypia and a very significant increase in mitotic activity. Such changes are a prelude to carcinogenesis. In the case of many oropharyngeal cancers in Asia and Africa it is the alkaline slaked lime in the betel quid which is responsible; in the case of gastric cancers it is the reflux of the alkaline duodenal contents into the stomach; in the case of colon it is the absence of roughage, cellulose and vegetable fibres from the diet; in the case of the cervix uteri it is the frequency of coitus which gives rise to a highly alkaline seminal fluid; and in the case of cancer lung it is the alkaline cigarette smoke. 相似文献

BackgroundDepression is a common psychological symptom associated with dementia. Pharmacological approaches are often used despite two large negative trials of efficacy. This meta-analysis examines nonpharmacological (i.e., psychosocial) approaches for symptoms of depression in people living with dementia and reports statistical and clinical significance.MethodsRelevant studies published between 2012 and 2020 were sourced by searching electronic databases: MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsychINFO, Social Work Abstracts and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Studies were assessed for methodological quality. Random-effects meta-analysis was performed to calculate a pooled effect size (ES) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).ResultsOverall, 37 nonpharmacological studies were identified including 2,636 participants. The mean quality rating was high (12/14, SD=1.4). Meta-analysis revealed that nonpharmacological approaches were significantly associated with reduced symptoms of depression with a medium effect size (ES=−0.53, 95%CI [−0.72, −0.33], p < 0.0001). There was considerable heterogeneity between studies. Meta-regression revealed this was not driven by intervention type or setting (residential versus community).ConclusionsNonpharmacological approaches such as reminiscence, cognitive stimulation/ rehabilitation, therapeutic, music-based approaches and education/ training, have the potential to reduce symptoms of depression in dementia. 相似文献

Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy for depression: replication and exploration of differential relapse prevention effects 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Recovered recurrently depressed patients were randomized to treatment as usual (TAU) or TAU plus mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT). Replicating previous findings, MBCT reduced relapse from 78% to 36% in 55 patients with 3 or more previous episodes; but in 18 patients with only 2 (recent) episodes corresponding figures were 20% and 50%. MBCT was most effective in preventing relapses not preceded by life events. Relapses were more often associated with significant life events in the 2-episode group. This group also reported less childhood adversity and later first depression onset than the 3-or-more-episode group, suggesting that these groups represented distinct populations. MBCT is an effective and efficient way to prevent relapse/recurrence in recovered depressed patients with 3 or more previous episodes. 相似文献

Twenty-five men and 26 women with major unipolar depression were evaluated by the TRH test and urinary MHPG excretion. A significant positive correlation between TSH response to TRH and urinary MHPG was found in the men, though not in the women. These findings suggest that at least for depressed men, central norepinephrine deficiency may be the neurobiological substrate of blunted TSH responses to TRH. 相似文献

In a prospective study the authors compared unipolar psychotic and non-psychotic patients for the presence of delusional ideation in previous episodes. Psychotic patients had a significantly higher frequency of delusions in previous episodes. The type and content of delusional ideas were similar from episode to episode. The results and their implications are discussed. 相似文献
