米氮平与氯丙咪嗪治疗抑郁和焦虑共病的疗效对照

目的比较米氮平、氯丙咪嗪抗抑郁和焦虑的共病作用和不良反应。方法65例同时符合抑郁症与焦虑障碍诊断标准的门诊患者,HAMD17项评分总分≥17分,≤23分、HAMA总分≥14分, ≤29分。分别随机给予口服米氮平(简称A组)和氯丙咪嗪(简称B组)。研究全程为期4周。疗效评定按HAMD、HAMA得分≤7分为治愈,减分50％为有效。数据进行X2及t检验。结果入组时两组 HAMD、HAMA得分无显著性差异(t=0．32,P>0．05),治疗第1周A组HAMD得分下降比B组明显, HAMA得分下降更为明显。治疗第2周开始A组HAMD、HAMA得分下降均比B组来的显著。第4周末A组临床治愈18例(56．3％,18／32),临床有效28例(87．5％,28／32)。B组临床治愈15例(45．5％, 15／33)临床有效27例(81．9％,27／33)。米氮平组有效率87．5％,氯丙咪嗪组有效率81．9％,无显著性差异(X2分别为0．76、0．40,P>0．05)。B组的不良反应例数及严重程度均远高于A组。结论对具有抑郁和焦虑共病的患者可用米氮平治疗。     

Well-being (quality of life) in connection with hypertensive treatment

Quality of life is often considered to equate how the medical treatment is subjectively perceived by the patient, but ought to include the total impact of the disease/treatment on the patient's emotional, physical, and social well-being. Recently, a proposal for a generally applicable definition of quality of life in health care was put forward. This definition includes general well-being, health, and welfare (external factors), as three fundamental components, and the definition is based on both objective and subjective judgments. General well-being is exclusively and expression of the individual's subjective experience and is based on his or her own qualitative evaluation of well-being in relation to condition, treatments, and experiences. Health is according to the proposed definition, judged both objectively (signs) and subjectively (symptoms). Apart from health and well-being, there is also reason to include objectively registrable factors at the welfare level (external factors) such as the consumption of medicines, number of days in hospital, length of sick leave, need of in-home care, etc. This review is an attempt to elucidate the effects of antihypertensive pharmacotherapy on the patient's general well-being. The topic will be discussed from several points of views (e.g., aims of antihypertensive treatment, occurrence of symptoms in the population, compliance with prescribed treatment, symptom inventories, the concept of quality of life.     

帕罗西汀治疗阿尔茨海默病的抑郁对照研究

目的：比较帕罗西汀与氯米帕明在阿尔茨海默病(AD)抑郁症状治疗中的疗效和不良反应。方法：帕罗西汀组51例，氯米帕明组44例，均诊断为AD，汉密顿抑郁量表(HAMD，17项)≥18分。比较两组患者治疗后的HAMD减分率，采用副反应量表(TESS)评定不良反应。结果：帕罗西汀组与氯米帕明组总体疗效相当，但帕罗西汀组起效较快，不良反应发生率低。结论：帕罗西汀在AD抑郁症状治疗中具有一定优势，值得临床推广应用。     

不同性别首次发作抑郁症的临床特征对比

目的：探讨不同性别首次发作抑郁症临床特征的异同。方法：采用一般情况问卷、抑郁白评量表(SDS)和汉密顿抑郁量表(HAMD)对不同性别首发抑郁症患者进行测查。结果：女性首发抑郁症患者发病年龄显著低于男性，HAMD的躯体化／焦虑、睡眠因子显著高于男性，而认识障碍、迟缓和绝望因子评分显著较男性为低。另外，女性抑郁症患者的共病显著高于男性。结论：不同性别首次发作抑郁症的临床特征存在一定的差异。     

The Hampshire Depression Project: development and piloting of clinical practice guidelines and education about depression in primary health care

This paper describes the development and piloting of a comprehensive educational programme about recognition and management of depressive illness in primary care. Full evaluation of the effectiveness of the programme is currently underway in a randomized controlled trial, the Hampshire Depression Project (HDP), involving 56 general practices. The programme consists of clinical practice guidelines, practice-based seminars and follow-up sessions. Each part of the programme has been designed to be flexible, clinically oriented and relevant to all members of the multidisciplinary primary care team. The pilot study established the need for a systematic approach to the access of practices and practice teams, and the organization and process of the seminars. Application of this approach was associated with excellent attendance in the main programme.     

冠心病行为模式与心理状态的相关性探讨

目的为探讨Ａ型行为在冠心病（ＣｏｒｏｎａｒｙＨｅａｒｔＤｉｓｅａｓｅ，ＣＨＤ）中的作用及与心理状态的相关性。方法对１１４例ＣＨＤ及３７例非ＣＨＤ应用心理测验方法对照调查。结果发现Ａ型行为的人易患ＣＨＤ。ＣＨＤＡ型行为者在焦虑、抑郁、人际关系、认识、敌对性症状因子分较ＣＨＤ非Ａ型行为者有明显增高。ＣＨＤ非Ａ型行为者也具有一些特有的心理症状。结论ＣＨＤ病人的行为模式与病后的某些心理表现呈正相关。

比较急性病毒性肝炎患者感染打危险因素，同时比较五型肝炎的症状和体征。连续收集急性病毒性肝炎患者血清２９３份，用ＥＬＩＳＡ法检测了五型肝炎病毒的病原学指标，并进行了流赞美同学调查。暴露因素：丙肝的肠道外暴露外明显多于甲肝；甲肝和戊肝有较高的“甲肝”患者接触史；乙肝，丙肝和丁肝有高的“乙肝”接触史，与甲肝，戊肝相比差异显著。     

Changes in sleep polygraphic variables and clinical state in depressed patients during treatment with citalopram

Drug-induced improvement of depression may be mediated by changes in sleep physiology. The aim of this study was to relate changes in sleep polygraphic variables to clinical state during treatment with citalopram, a highly specific serotonin uptake inhibitor. Sixteen patients took part. The study was single-blind and uncontrolled. A 1-week wash-out period was followed by 1 week of placebo administration, a medication period of 5 weeks, and a 1-week placebo period. For the entire group a significant decrease of rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) and a significant lengthening of REMS latency were observed initially as well as at the end of treatment. No changes in sleep continuity were found, but non-REMS stage 2 (percentage) was significantly increased. On the basis of clinical change, as expressed by the scores of the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, at the end of the citalopram treatment the patient group was split in two halves: eight less and eight more improved patients. The groups did not differ with respect to any sleep polygraphic varible.     

Life satisfaction in patients with chest pain subsequently diagnosed as coronary heart disease – connection through depressive symptoms?

The aim of this study was to investigate factors associated with life dissatisfaction in symptomatic patients (n = 144) with chest pain subsequently diagnosed as coronary heart disease (CHD) by coronary angiography. Life dissatisfaction was assessed with a four-item life satisfaction scale (LS), depression with the 21-item Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and other psychiatric symptoms with the symptom check list (SCL). DSM-III-R Axis I and Axis II psychiatric diagnoses were performed by means of the Structured Clinical Interview. All assessments took place one day before angiography. Twenty-four per cent of CHD patients were dissatisfied with their lives. Life dissatisfaction was associated with being unmarried. Dissatisfied patients had Axis I mental disorders and Axis II personality disorders more frequently than others. Psychiatric and depressive symptoms according to the SCL and BDI, respectively, were also higher among dissatisfied patients. In multiple logistic regression analyses, mental disorders were related to life dissatisfaction when age, sex, employment status, New York Heart Association class, duration of chest pain symptoms and work load were controlled in the model. Married subjects had a lower probability of being dissatisfied with their lives than other subjects (Odds Ratio, OR: 0.23). When BDI scores were included in the model, the only factor independently associated with life dissatisfaction was the severity of depressive symptoms (OR: 1.81). To conclude, life dissatisfaction is not primarily determined by the severity of CHD but by the existence of depressive symptoms.
