Filter by:Mental health problems -particularly depression- are the main cause of morbidity in young people (1), which has a known association with different health and social problems, such as increased alcohol consumption and drug dependence, adolescent pregnancy, school dropouts , criminal behavior, self-harm, and even suicide (2-4). MBCT is an intervention that has been shown to reduce depression, stress and anxiety in the adult and university population; however, its duration and time demands make it difficult to implement. The available evidence of mindfulness interventions in university students is heterogeneous, with various methodological flaws, and is based on self-applied programs such as Mindful Mood Balance (MMB), without the participation of instructors. The current study aim to explore the acceptability and feasibility of an intervention based on a Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) program with training in mindfulness strategies for 8 weeks. The adapted MBCT intervention will consist of eight weekly group sessions of 1 hour and 30 minutes, led by a certified instructor, to address the depressive and anxiety symptoms in the university population. In addition, the intervention will be complemented with the inclusion of audiovisual material, aimed at guiding self-applied daily exercises.
Pulmonary Langerhans cell histiocytosis (PLCH) is a rare disease, of unknown etiology, that occurs almost exclusively in smokers.The clinical experience suggests a high prevalence of anxiety symptoms and an addictive profile. However, no study to date has precisely investigated the prevalence of co-morbid psychiatric disorders in this population.The aim of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of co-morbid psychiatric disorders in adult PLCH patients. This study should allow: - to assess the prevalence of psychiatric disorders co-morbid in PLCH patients - a targeted and more effective management of patients - a better response rate to smoking and cannabis weaning, that represents a major goal for these patients.
The present IIT (Investigator-Initiated Trial) study is a prospective, randomised, placebo-controlled, double blind trial. Women hospitalised with signs of preterm birth can be recruited for the study. Participants will take study medication for 2 weeks (or until birth) and fill out a questionnaire at 3 time points (at baseline, after 1 week and after 2 weeks) to assess state of anxiety and sleep quality. Furthermore, information regarding adverse events and the further course of the pregnancy are recorded.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of virtual reality glasses and smartphone game applications on preoperative anxiety in children who have day surgery. The study comprised of 60 children (20 children in a virtual reality glass game application group, 20 children in a smartphone game application group, and 20 children in a control group). The approval of the ethics committee, permissions from the institutions, and informed voluntary approval of the children's were obtained to conduct the research. The data of the research were collected through the Children's Perioperative Multidimensional Anxiety Scale (CPMAS), physiological parameters of children were measured before, after and 90 minutes after the operation, and salivary cortisol sample taken before surgery in all of groups. Children in smartphone game application groups played a game for 15 minutes on a smartphone before the surgical operation, and standard care was given to children. Children in virtual reality game application groups played a game for 15 minutes on virtual reality glasses before the surgical operation, and standard care was given to children. Before the surgical operation, standard care was given to children in control groups. The value of p<0.05 was accepted statistically significant in the data analyses.
Two-arm, parallel group randomized clinical trial conducted via Mturk comparing a single-session web-based intervention called Visitor Mindset versus a control intervention (nature videos with relaxing music) for adults with depression and/or anxiety symptoms
The investigators will conduct a retrospective cohort analysis of a consumer trial conducted by Rae Wellness. The trial took place between October 15, 2020 and December 30, 2020 and involved 1350 U.S. women who used in-home use tests (IHUT) of various Cannabidiol (CBD) products. Participants were randomized to one of 9 groups: 8 groups received one of 8 different CBD products in the mail, and one group served as the control and did not consume any CBD product. The CBD products varied by method of delivery, concentration of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and dosage of CBD. Participants were asked to use the product once daily for 60 day and to complete health questionnaires at baseline, 30 days and 60 days.
The primary objective of the study is to utilize the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety scale (mYPAS), a validated preoperative/procedural anxiety score, to measure preoperative anxiety via distraction in pediatric oncology patients undergoing port access. The hypothesis is that using Virtual Reality (VR) will objectively decrease anxiety scores measured by mYPAS by five percent (primary outcome). The secondary outcome will be the parents or the legally authorized representative (LAR) subjective reports of anxiety with the use of VR. The Kind VR device is used in house at Children's Health in the Dallas and Plano campuses. The VR device used in this study qualifies as exempt from FDA IDE regulations. It is a non-significant risk, non-invasive, interactive video device the user wears like goggles. The study carries minimal risks to the subjects and is designed to minimize patient discomfort from placement or motion sickness. Furthermore, the device has disposable covers for protection against infection and can be sanitized between uses, once the disposable covers are removed. Children's Health System of Texas (CHST) and this research group are not partnering entities with the Kind VR, and the Kind VR device is not being studied. The effect of virtual reality (VR) on preprocedural anxiety as measured by questionnaires and the observations of the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) is being studied Most patients coming to the Clinic of Cancer and Blood Disorders (CCBD) are under chronic care for their ongoing disease and are likely to be coming to the CCBD at least twice in a 6-month period. The CCBD schedule will be reviewed by the researchers for patients age 5-12, requiring port access at least twice during the next six-month period. Patient families whose child meets the basic screening criteria, and have no exclusion criteria, will be approached privately as possible participants in the study. Up to 100 subjects will be enrolled over a 2-year period. Once the subject/parent or LAR agrees to participate, study staff will randomize the subjects into which standard of care distraction method for anxiety management they will receive first in this study.
Background: Research has shown that anxiety affects more than feelings. It also affects behavior. Researchers want to learn how the brain and body respond to unexpected threats. They want to see if probable pleasant or unpleasant events change decisions. Objective: To better understand how changes in anxiety are associated with changes in decision-making. Eligibility: Adults aged 18-50 with generalized anxiety disorder, seasonal affective disorder, or panic disorder. Healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: Participants will be screened under protocol #01-M-0254. Participants will complete surveys about their anxiety, risk-taking, and curiosity. Participants will complete a computer task. They will be given different choices. They will make a choice. They will receive an unpleasant or pleasant stimulus based on their choice. They will repeat this task many times. Most participants will do the task in the clinic. The unpleasant stimulus will be electric shock and acoustic startle. They will receive electric shocks through electrodes placed on their arm or fingers. They may hear loud noises through headphones. Their eyeblinks will be recorded with electrodes placed under their eye. Their heart rate and skin conductance activity will be collected with electrodes as well. Some healthy volunteers will do the task during a functional magnetic resonance imaging scan. They will lie on a table that slides in and out of a scanner. A coil will be placed over their head. The unpleasant stimulus will be electric shock, given as stated above. The scanner will record their brain activity. Their breathing and pulse rate will be recorded as well. Participation will last for 3-4 hours.
The purpose of this study is to assess how psychological stress and anxiety relate to bladder sensitivity and to psychological burdens in people with overactive bladder and how this can be measured effectively.
This study was conducted to determine the effect of web-based progressive relaxation exercises applied to nurses working in a pandemic hospital on perceived stress and anxiety. In this randomized controlled clinical trial, nurses working in the pandemic hospital were randomly assigned to the control and intervention groups.
