Cholecystectomy is the most common major abdominal surgical procedure in western countries. Patients may experience fear and anxiety before surgery. Stress ball, one of the distraction methods, is an effective method in providing cognitive focus. It is seen that the stress ball method is used to reduce patients' anxiety and pain. Squeezing the stress ball during the surgical procedure allows patients to have direct control over the object, increasing their sense of empowerment. In this way, it has a positive effect on anxiety and patient satisfaction without interfering with the surgical procedure. In this study, it is aimed to evaluate the effect of preoperative use of stress ball on patients' fear, stress and comfort in order to determine the effect of stress ball applied before cholecystectomy surgery on patients' surgical fear, stress and comfort. It is thought that the data obtained as a result of the research will provide evidence for the effect of the stress ball, which is a non-pharmacological method used before the procedure, on fear, stress and comfort.
Childbirth is a multifaceted experience and could involve both positive and negative feelings. Feelings of limited capability in the face of childbirth may result in a condition termed as Fear of Childbirth (FOC), which contributes to significantly higher risks of birth complications resulting in psychological trauma. This study aims to examine the effects of Art Therapy (AT) on FOC, perceived maternal parental self-efficacy, postpartum maternal infant bonding and postpartum depression. A mixed-methods sequential explanatory design will be used. Phase one will adopt a quasi-experimental study design. Women who are aged 21 and above, English literate and having a singleton pregnancy will be approached to fill in the Fear of Birth Scale (FOBS). Participants with FOBS score of 60 and above will be considered as having FOC and will be invited to participate in the AT intervention. Participants who are agreeable to receive AT will be recruited in the experimental group. Participants who declined to participate in AT will receive routine antenatal care (control group). Outcomes that will be measured in both groups include perceived maternal self-efficacy, maternal infant bonding, and maternal depression after childbirth. A qualitative descriptive design will be used in phase two. Semi-structured interviews will be conducted with the participants to explore their experiences of the AT. Descriptive analysis, independent sample t-test, paired sample t-test, and regression analysis will be used for analysis of the quantitative data in phase one. Qualitative data from phase two will be analysed using thematic analysis. Findings of this study may provide evidence on the use of AT to cope with FOC during pregnancy. If proven to be beneficial, AT may potentially be introduced and advocated as an intervention for women with FOC.

This mechanistic study uses an anti anxiety drug and brain imaging to study the threat processing system and associated brain circuits in people with depression, anxiety disorders and comorbid depression and anxiety disorders. In a double blind, placebo controlled crossover design, up to 65 individuals will be recruited who will have a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and at least one anxiety disorder (AD) (AD-MDD group), up to 65 participants will have a diagnosis of MDD and no diagnosis of an AD and up to 65 participants will have no diagnosis of MDD and a diagnosis of at least one AD will be enrolled to participate in an two session study to obtain 150 completers (50 per group). All participants will receive a single dose of Lorazepam and placebo (order randomized) taken orally. After the ~2.5 hr screening session, participants will complete two identical ~5 hr experimental sessions, each of which include a 30 min eyeblink startle session and a 1 hr functional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scan session. The total time involved in the study is approximately 10.5 hours. The main questions the study seeks to answer are: - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their eyeblink startle response to threat? - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their brain activation in response to threat? - are people with comorbid depression and anxiety different than those with depression alone in terms of their responses to anxiety drugs?
