SCL-90抑郁和敌对因子特殊作用的量化研究

目的采用症状自评量表（SCL-90）对22831名大学入学新生进行心理健康状况普查,研究抑郁和敌对因子特殊作用。方法运用聚类分析把大学新生分为存在4个自然群：G1-无症状组;G2-轻度症状组;G3-中度症状组;G4-重度症状组。再对4个自然群进行回归分析。结果SCL-90新生测查中,抑郁因子对大学新生的心理问题的预测力最高;敌对因子等因子对大学新生中度心理问题具有较高预测力。结论抑郁和敌对因子对大学新生的心理问题干预具有较高的实践意义。     

老年抑郁症和焦虑障碍共病患者的临床特征

目的探讨老年抑郁症和焦虑障碍共病患者的临床特征。方法根据美国精神障碍诊断手册第四版(DSM-IV)的诊断标准,把78例老年抑郁症患者分为两组,单纯抑郁症组(抑郁症组,N=44)及抑郁症和焦虑障碍共病组(共病组N=34)。对所有对象评定一般人口学资料及老年抑郁量表(GDS)、汉密顿抑郁量表(HAMD)、汉密顿焦虑量表(HAMA)、简易智能状态评定量表(MMSE)和健康状况调查问卷(SF-36)等,比较两组患者间差异。结果抑郁症组与共病组患者的性别、年龄、病程、居住情况、家族史、民族、发病诱因和受教育年限等方面的差异无统计学意义(均P>0.05)。GDS总分(14.0±1.2/12.1±2.0,t=4.92)、HAMD(38.1±4.0/33.4±4.7,t=4.35)和HAMA总分(22.6±5.5/11.7±2.7,t=10.93)及其因子分、HAMD第3项(自杀)条目分、SF-36躯体功能(79.2±13.6/69.1±13.6,t=3.25)、社交功能(70.0±21.2/50.0±22.5,t=4.02)评分共病组均高于抑郁症组差异有统计学意义(均P<0.05)。结论老年抑郁症和焦虑障碍共病患者较单纯抑郁患者的抑郁和焦虑症状更重、自杀风险大、生活质量更差。     

实验性抑郁症大鼠缰核和海马BDNF基因表达

目的：研究抑郁症大鼠缰核和海马BDNF基因的表达情况。方法：采用长期未预知应激刺激致大鼠抑郁症模型，运用open-field和forced swinmming test法观察大鼠行为学变化。运用免疫组化法检测缰核和海马BDNT基因的表达。结果：与正常对照组相比，抑郁症模型组大鼠海马和缰核均表现为BDNF阳性细胞数量明显减少。结论：实验性抑郁症大鼠缰核、海马BDNF基因表达水平降低。     

情绪智力与大学生焦虑、抑郁和心境的关系研究

自Ｇｏｌｅｍａｎ《情绪智力》[1] 一书出版以来 ,情绪智力一词已为很多人所熟悉。情绪智力一般被定义为个体适应性地知觉、理解、调节和利用自己及他人的情绪的能力[2 - 3] 。虽然情绪智力有时被当作能力(或智力 )看待[2 ,4 ] ,有时则被认为是个性特质[5- 8] ,但研究者都相信情绪智力对于个体在现实生活中取得成功起着十分重要的作用[1] 。关于情绪智力常见的一个命题是个体情绪智力越高越能体会到情绪上的幸福感 (Ｅｍｏｔｉｏｎａｌｗｅｌｌ -ｂｅｉｎｇ) [1- 2 ] 。为了回答这个问题 ,本研究拟探讨情绪智力与大学生焦虑、抑郁和心境的关…     

脑卒中患者抑郁情绪的初步调查

脑血管病后出现的抑郁情绪是脑卒中常见的并发症 ,抑郁情绪在一定程度上影响卒中患者的肢体功能和社会生活能力的恢复。有流行病学调查发现 ,脑卒中后抑郁的发生率为 4 0 %～ 5 0 % [1] ,然而对脑卒中患者抑郁情绪的特点少有报道 ,为观察脑卒中对患者心理的影响 ,我们对 6 3例脑卒中患者的抑郁水平进行了分析。1　对象与方法1.1　研究对象6 3例患者均为我院住院患者 ,经颅脑ＣＴ或ＭＲ确诊。其中缺血性脑卒中 4 7例 ,出血性脑卒中 16例。首次发病 38例 ,两次及两次以上发病 2 5例。男性 4 0例 ,女性 2 3例。年龄最大 82岁 ,最小 38岁 ,平均 …     

The categorical and dimensional models of endogenous depression

We calculated a Research Diagnostic Criteria (RDC) endogenous score for 257 depressed inpatients based on the number of endogenous criteria present. The distribution of RDC endogenous scores was unimodal. There was no association between endogenous scores and results of the Dexamethasone Suppression Test, or morbid risk for depression in the patients' first-degree relatives. The morbid risk for a family history of alcoholism tended to decrease with increasing endogenous scores, although a consistent steady decline was not observed. The results suggest that the RDC criteria do not fit either the categorical or dimensional model of endogenous classification. Potential sources of difficulty with the RDC endogenous criteria are discussed.     

Searching for answers: How well do depression websites answer the public’s questions about treatment choices?

Objective

The purpose of this study was to evaluate websites providing information on treatment for depression to the public, and to evaluate changes in the quality of website information over time.

MMPI, personality dysfunction and the dexamethasone suppression test in major depression

In this study we examined the relationship of psychopathology and personality dysfunction to neuroendocrine functioning. MMPI profiles were examined for 30 psychiatric inpatients with major depression who were suppressors (60%) and nonsuppressors (40%) on the dexamethasone suppression test. There were no differences between suppressors and nonsuppressors on any of the MMPI scales or on DSM-III Axis-II diagnosis. When subdivided according to T-score elevations above 70 on MMPI scales 4 and 6, or 4 and 9, 30% of the sample, however, met criteria for personality dysfunction. Furthermore, a significantly higher proportion of suppressors (50%) evidenced personality dysfunction than did the nonsuppressors (8%). This suggests that certain MMPI scales are able to identify a subgroup of depressed patients with personality disturbances who also have a hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal dysfunction.     

Anxiety psychopathology predictive of outcome in patients with panic disorder and depression treated with imipramine, alprazolam and placebo

This study examines clinical predictors of outcome for patients with panic disorder and depression in a 16 week, placebo-controlled trial of alprazolam and imipramine (n = 126). Baseline global severity of illness and phobic avoidance were differentially predictive of acute response to treatment. Patients in the mild to moderate range of global distress experienced smaller degrees of improvement on alprazolam than on imipramine at week 4. At endpoint, the relative effectiveness of the active medication versus placebo was diminished in patients with higher levels of phobic avoidance. This relationship was not evident for completers, suggesting that the adverse effects of avoidance on outcome after sustained treatment was reduced.
