Filter by:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a systemic neuro-endocrine-metabolic-reproductive disorder, common in women of reproductive age, affecting 21.27% of women worldwide and the rate of PCOS has been increasing over the past decade. Women with PCOS have many health problems, including insulin resistance, hyperandrogenemia, and ovulation disorders. Moreover, PCOS is also associated with significant consequences such as increased risk of cardiovascular disease, glucose intolerance and diabetes mellitus (both type 2 and gestational), increased risk of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer and mental health disorders. A meta-analysis of 57 studies has been reported that women with PCOS are more likely to have an increased risk of diagnosis of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. These psychological disorders may be related to biometric and biochemical characteristics in women with PCOS, such as body image, hirsutism or acne. Furthermore, researches showed that waist-to-hip ratio and plasmatic levels of testosterone is inversely related to anxiety, psychoticism, hostility and to the indexes of psychological distress. Psychological consequences may also be related to other factors, including stigmatization and isolation, the lack of empathy from family and friends, the feeling of guilt and the diminished sense of self-worth, the costs of treatment and treatment outcomes. However, there has been no data on the psychological disorders in infertile women with PCOS. Therefore, the study aimed to determine the prevalence of anxiety disorders, depression in infertile women with PCOS and associated factors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two school based interventions to manage anxiety in autistic students. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1) Compare the effectiveness of Facing Your Fears-School Based Program (FYF-SB) with Zones of Regulation (ZOR) on anxiety reduction and emotion regulation; and 2) examine the feasibility and satisfaction of FYF-SB and ZOR, according to students, caregivers and school providers. Autistic students with anxiety between 8-14 years will be randomized to either FYF-SB and ZOR. They will participate in one of the programs for 12 weeks and pre, post and follow-up measures will occur.
The goal of this interventional study is to reduce preoperative anxiety by Virtual Reality mindfulness. Population: all adults, able to give their consent and scheduled for surgery with high preoperative anxiety defined by Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) score > 10. The study will recruit 100 patients in one university teaching hospital. The main question it aims to answer is: may mindfulness by Virtual Reality reduce preoperative anxiety in patients particularly anxious for the surgery? Participants will be asked to undergo to a single mindfulness virtual reality session before the surgery.
Advancing age is associated with an increased risk of developing dementia which can lead to a rapid acceleration in both the healthcare costs and caregiver burden. There is a need to develop non-pharmacological and easily accessible modalities of support for the well-being and enhancing quality of life for individuals with dementia. There is evidence that music listening is associated with stress and anxiety reduction in older adults. Here, the investigators aim to assess the effects of music listening as provided by a novel digital music-based intervention (developed by LUCID) on mood, anxiety, and quality of life in individuals at the early stages of dementia. LUCID uses reinforcement learning machine learning to curate and personalize the musical playlist while incorporating monoaural theta auditory beat stimulation (ABS) into the music. The study will be conducted remotely with study hardware (tablets and Bluetooth speakers) being delivered to caregivers/participants. The study will take place over an 8- week period, with participants completing four 30 mins music or audiobook listening sessions per week. Pre and post-intervention assessments will be done via Zoom with the presence of a research staff member. The control condition consists of a randomized list of short audiobooks. The experimental condition consists of music and monoaural ABS curated by LUCID's AI system. The investigators hypothesize that the LUCID AI music curation system, compared to audiobooks, will be correlated with a greater reduction in measures of anxiety and agitation and an enhancement of mood and quality of life.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a brief, efficient, and effective treatment for individuals with depressive/anxiety disorders. However, CBT is largely underutilized within the Department of Veterans Affairs due to the cost and burden of trainings necessary to deliver all of the related disorder-specific treatments (DSTs). Transdiagnostic Behavior Therapy (TBT), in contrast, is specifically designed to address numerous distinct disorders within a single protocol in Veterans with depressive/anxiety disorders. The proposed research seeks to evaluate the efficacy of TBT by assessing psychiatric symptomatology and related impairment outcomes in Veterans with social anxiety disorder and comorbid posttraumatic stress via a randomized controlled trial of TBT and an existing DST. Assessments will be completed at pre-, mid-, and post-treatment, and at 6-month follow-up. Process variables also will be investigated.
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to compare the effects of Immersive Virtual Reality(IVRE)(NIVRE) and Non Immersive Virtual Reality in children having dental anxiety.The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. Does preoperative IVRE and NIVRE has any effect on dental anxiety in children measured with self-reported dental anxiety scale; Malay translated Modified Child Dental Anxiety Scale faces version (MMCDASf)? 2. Does preoperative IVRE and NIVRE has any effect on dental anxiety in children measured with physiological measure, Pulse Rate(PR)? 3. Is there any difference in dental anxiety measured using MMCDASf and PR between IVRE,NIVRE and control group at pre-test and post-test? 4. What is the correlation between self-reported MMCDASf and physiological measure PR?
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of lavender aromatherapy in reducing pre-operative anxiety in patients undergoing surgical procedures under spinal anesthesia. This was a prospective double blinded randomized controlled trial. After patient's approval, the anxiety level was assessed preoperativetively with Visual Analogue scale-anxiety and APAIS scale. To rule out any lavender sensitivity, all subjects were given a skin patch test. This was accomplished by applying a drop of lavender oil to the back of the hand and covering it with a Tegaderm dressing to prevent inhalation and spread of the oil. After randomisation and allocation, the investigators prooceeded with the intervention preoperatively. In the operating room, the acte under spinal anethesia was performed. Then we collect data postoperatively.
This study investigates the short-term effects of the MindEase app on anxiety levels.
In this study, the investigators aim to evaluate the relationship between disease severity, quality of life, anxiety and pain level in patients diagnosed with Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) with the parameters according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) 2016 diagnostic criteria. According to the 2016 ACR diagnostic criteria, there are 2 separate scales: Widespread Pain Index (WPI) and Symptom Severity (SS) . The relationship between these 2 parameters and the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire, the World Health Organization Short Quality of Life Questionnaire, and the McGill Melzack Pain Questionnaire and Beck Anxiety Questionnaire will be examined.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two psychological treatments for Generalized Anxiety Disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: How well do these treatments work compared to earlier studies? Is one of the treatments more effective than the other? Are the treatments working the way that we think they do? Specifically, do changes in the variables that these treatments aim to target predict changes in anxiety symptoms? Participants will be randomized to two different internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) programs: Intolerance of uncertainty-based ICBT and metacognition-based ICBT. Both programs consist of 8 treatment modules and run for 10 weeks. A psychologist will respond to the participants assignments and exercises and will respond to messages.
