The aims of this longitudinal study were to 1) identify categories of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) (ie, neglect, abuse, household dysfunction in childhood) that increase risk for internalizing mental health problems, pain-related impairment, and poorer quality of life and 2) examine the moderating role of posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) in these associations, in a clinical sample of youth with chronic pain. At 2 timepoints, youth (N = 155; aged 10–18 years) completed measures of exposure to ACEs, PTSS, depressive and anxiety symptoms, pain intensity, pain interference, and quality of life. Multivariate analyses of variance, linear mixed modeling, and moderation analyses were conducted. Results from cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses were similar; youth with a history of 3+ ACEs reported significantly higher PTSS, depressive and anxiety symptoms, and poorer quality of life than youth with no ACE history. Results also revealed differences in functioning between youth exposed to different types of ACEs (ie, maltreatment only, household dysfunction only, both, none). Finally, PTSS was found to moderate the association between ACEs and anxiety and depressive symptoms. Findings underscore the influence that ACEs can have on the long-term functioning of youth with chronic pain as well as the important role of current PTSS in this association.PerspectiveThis study found that the risk of poorer outcomes imposed by ACEs at baseline remains longitudinally and that posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) moderate the relationship between ACEs and anxiety and depressive symptoms in youth with chronic pain. These results underscore the importance of assessing for ACEs and PTSS alongside chronic pain in youth. 相似文献

BackgroundThe 2014 Institute of Medicine report recommended that healthcare providers caring for individuals with advanced illness have basic palliative care competencies in communication, inter-professional collaboration, and symptom management. Nursing homes, where one in three American decedents live and die, have fallen short of these competency goals. We implemented an intervention study to examine the efficacy of nursing home-based integrated palliative care teams in improving the quality of care processes and outcomes for residents at the end of life.Methods/designThis paper describes the design, rationale, and challenges of a two-arm randomized controlled trial of nursing home-based palliative care teams in 31 facilities. The impact of the intervention on residents' outcomes is measured with four risk-adjusted quality indicators: place of death (nursing home or hospital), number of hospitalizations, and self-reported pain and depression in the last 90-days of life. The effect of the intervention is also evaluated with regard to staff satisfaction and impact on care processes (e.g. palliative care competency, communication, coordination). Both secondary (e.g. the Minimum Data Set) and primary (e.g. staff surveys) data are employed to examine the effect of the intervention.DiscussionSeveral challenges in conducting a complex, nursing home-based intervention have been identified. While sustainability of the intervention without research funding is not clear, we surmise that without changes to the payment model that put palliative care services in this care setting on par with the more “skilled” care, it will not be reasonable to expect any widespread efforts to implement facility-based palliative care services. 相似文献

This study examined the impact of evidence concerning the presence of 1) a biomedical basis for pain and 2) psychosocial influences on practitioner appraisals of patient pain experiences. Furthermore, the potential moderating role of patient pain behavior was examined. In an online study, 52 general practitioners and 46 physiotherapists viewed video sequences of 4 patients manifesting pain, with accompanying vignettes describing presence or absence of medical evidence and psychosocial influences. Participants estimated pain intensity, daily interference, sympathy felt, effectiveness of pain medication, self-efficacy, their likability, and suspicions of deception. Primary findings indicated lower perceived pain and daily interference, less sympathy, lower expectations of medication impact, and less self-efficacy when medical evidence was absent. The same results were found when psychosocial influences were present, but only when the patient displayed higher levels of pain behavior. Furthermore, absence of medical evidence was related to less positive evaluations of the patients and to higher beliefs in deception in both professions. The presence of psychosocial influences was related to less positive evaluations and higher beliefs in deception in both professions. In sum, a range of contextual factors influence health care practitioner responses to patient pain. Implications for caregiving behavior are discussed.PerspectiveThe present study indicates that in the absence of clear medical evidence and in the presence of psychosocial influences, patient pain might be taken less seriously by health care practitioners. These findings are important to further understand the difficulties that relate to the clinical encounter between pain patients and health care practitioners. 相似文献

PurposeBecause many countries lack the capacity to follow the international guidelines for genetic testing, we suggest the specific approach for establishing local genetic testing guidelines that could be applied in developing countries. We focus on hereditary breast (BC) and ovarian cancer (OC) in Serbia.MethodsFrom the cohort of 550 persons who were referred for genetic counseling at the Institute for Oncology and Radiology of Serbia, 392 were selected. Personal and family histories were collected and germline DNA was sequenced with NGS in a panel of 20 genes.ResultsPathogenic (PV) and likely-pathogenic variants (LPV) were detected in 8 genes with the frequency of 23.7%. The most frequent were in BRCA1(7.6%), BRCA2(4.8%), PALB2(4.1%) and CHEK2(3.8%). They were also detected in ATM(1.8%), NBN(0.8%), TP53(0.5%) and RAD51C(0.3%). Whereas high carrier probability (CP), bilateral BC, BC and OC in the same patient and family history (FH) of BC/OC, were the strongest predictors for BRCA1/2 PV/LPV, lower CP values and early age of BC onset without FH were associated with higher frequency of PALB2 and CHEK2 PV/LPV.ConclusionsPopulation specific studies to identify specific mutational patterns and predictors of PV/LPV should be conducted in order to make scientifically sound and cost-effective guidelines for genetic testing in developing countries. 相似文献

BackgroundBiliary leak (BL) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) may have diffrent severity depending on its association with postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF).MethodsData of 2715 patients undergoing PD between 2011 and 2020 at two European third-level referral Centers for pancreatic surgery were retrospectively reviewed. These included BL incidences, grading, outcomes, specific treatments, and association with POPF.ResultsBL occurred in 6% of patients undergoing PD. Among 143 BL patients, 47% had an associated POPF and 53% a pure BL. Major morbidity (64% vs 36%) and mortality (19% vs 4%) were higher in POPF-associated BL group (all P< 0.01). Day of BL onset was similar between groups (POD 2 vs 3; P = 0.2), while BL closure occurred earlier in pure BL (POD 12 vs 23; P < 0.01). Conservative treatment was more frequent (55% vs 15%; P < 0.01), and the rate of percutaneous and/or trans-hepatic drain placement was lower (30% vs 16%; P = 0.04) in pure BL group. Relaparotomy was more common in POPF-associated BL group (42% VS 17%; P < 0.01) but was performed earlier in pure BL (POD 2 vs 10; P = 0.02).ConclusionsPure BL represents a more benign entity, managed conservatively in half of the cases. 相似文献
