Filter by:One of the factors that increase harmony in marriage is sexual life and sexual satisfaction (Erdinç, 2018). Sexual intercourse is one of the pillars of a successful family; accordingly, functionality in this area greatly affects marital adjustment (Atrian, 2018). Studies show an important relationship between sexual adjustment and marital adjustment (Türkseven et al., 2020; Begdeş, 2021). Negative workplace factors such as occupational stress and long working hours affect the physical and mental states of nurses (Oyeleye et al., 2013; Chesak et al., 2019). This study was planned to determine the relationship between stress, anxiety, depression, sexual function and marital adjustment in nurses.
The study is composed of three paper self-questionnaires to be filled in by the patients included at distance (> 6 months) from their diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer, in order to limit the impact of the announcement on the filling out the questionnaires. After verification of the eligibility criteria, the medical oncologist will present the study to patients coming to the ICL for a follow-up consultation as part of their regular care. The patients will meet with a clinical research nurse so that she can explain the again and answer any questions they may have. She will also give the patients the questionnaires questionnaires and will give a presentation of the questions asked. After this meeting, the patients will be given sufficient time to reflect on, which may extend until their next visit to the ICL, in order to express, if they wish, their opposition to participating in the study. If she agrees to participate, the patient can then complete the questionnaires as well as the complementary questionnaire and place them in a closed envelope to be given to the clinical research nurse. The completion of the questionnaires will be completely anonymous. The data of those who object to the use of their data will be deleted from the database. After the completion of the questionnaires, and in order to allow a benefit for the patient, a semi-directive interview in the form of a teleconsultation with a psycho-oncologist and sexologist will be offered. The interviews are not mandatory. The time to fill in the self-questionnaires is estimated at 30 minutes and the semi-directive interview can last up to one hour. Finally, at the end of the study, as part of her subsequent care, each patient participating in the study will have the possibility to renew a teleconsultation with the psycho-oncologist and sexologist if she feels the need. As the subject of the study may generate personal questions and lead to a request for psychological and/or sexological care.
Sexual Function Changes in High-Risk Pregnancies
This study's goal is to partner with public libraries to prevent substance use and sexual risk-taking among urban African American adolescents (ages 13-16) affected by parental drug use. An existing universal evidence-based intervention (Focus on Youth with Informed Parents and Children Together, abbreviated as FOY+ImPACT) will be adapted for adolescents affected by parental drug use and delivered in libraries. FOY+ImPACT is a skill-building intervention aimed at preventing substance use and sexual risk-taking among high-risk African American youth. The investigative team will conduct a pilot study to assess the feasibility and initial efficacy of a library-based prevention intervention for adolescents affected by drug use. Participants will be Black adolescents (13-16 years old) affected by parental drug use (N=120). Adolescents will be randomized by partner organization to receive the intervention virtually. Pre, Post and 3-month follow-up data will be collected using computerized surveys. Primary outcomes will be substance use (i.e., marijuana and alcohol use, two of the most common drugs for this age group) and sexual risk behaviors (i.e., initiation of sex and frequency of unprotected sex).
Sexual health is one the important components of life quality. The aim of this study is to compare sexual dysfunction of women who survived Covid-19 and who didn't undergo Covid-19.
Manhood 2.0 is a male-only group-level intervention, delivered over 13 hours, based on social cognitive theory, social norm theory, theory of gender and power, and the theory of reasoned action. The intervention is a gender-transformative program that promotes critical reflection and awareness on reproductive health, healthy relationships, gender norms and stereotypes that drive reproductive health behavior, and explicit and proactive support of female partner contraceptive use. Activities include group discussion, role playing, knowledge sharing, and skill-building; their purpose is to challenge young men to think critically about social expectations and restrictive norms, engage in dialogue about these gender norms, and then assess the way rigid norms affect their attitudes and behaviors toward a number of key issues, including intimate relationships, gender-based violence, substance abuse, sexually transmitted infections, and early pregnancy. Young men receive the intervention at a local community center or high school. Comparison condition young men receive a post-high school readiness program that does not discuss gender norms or sexual and reproductive health. The study was conducted with six cohorts of eligible young men ages 15-18 who received a baseline, immediate post-intervention, and three-month post-intervention survey. To participate in the study, individuals had to meet all the following criteria: (1) Identify as male; (2) Ages 15 to 18; (3) Not actively planning a pregnancy with someone; (4) Never participated in the community center's sexual and reproductive health program; (5) Received no additional sexual or reproductive health programming in the last three months; (6) Able to participate in a program delivered in English only. The investigators hypothesized that Manhood 2.0 participants would have lower rates of unprotected sex and more equitable attitudes towards gender than comparison participants.
Community college students are an underserved and at-risk population in terms of their sexual and relationship health. This is a three-arm randomized control trial to evaluate the long-term efficacy of a web-based sexual and relationship health promotion program among U.S. community college students (expected N = 2010) and explore the mechanisms underlying the program efficacy.
Robotic-assisted hysterectomy is an alternative to laparoscopic surgery as part of a minimal invasive regimen. Several treatment strategies are followed to improve the overall outcome and minimize surgical stress. Glucocorticoids provide significant analgesic and antiemetic effects but its role in a fast-track, multi-modal setting is not settled when discharge is planned within 24-36 hours. This study will evaluate in a randomized trial the effect of a single dose of 24 mg dexamethasone on women undergoing robotic-assisted hysterectomy with regard to surgical stress measured by c-reactive protein as primary outcome and, further, other stress markers like white blood cells. The postoperative recovery will be registered in validated charts and questionnaires for pain and analgesic use, quality of recovery, incontinence, sexual and work life. Furthermore, in a sub-analysis, transcriptional profiling will be applied to explore, which parts of the innate and cellular immune system is activated to explore the mechanisms of surgical stress response. The hypothesis is that women undergoing robotic hysterectomy would benefit from peroperative glucocorticoid treatment on important life qualities like pain, fatigue, freedom of medications and resuming work and sexual activities. Further, future adjuvant peroperative regimens may be able to target the stress response in a more appropriate way
This study is a 2-arm RCT that will assess the efficacy of a culturally adapted, 10-session SGM-affirmative, internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) among young men who have sex with men (YMSM) in Hunan province China. The affirmative treatment called ESTEEM is based on a minority stress-focused, CBT framework. In collaboration with colleagues at Central South University (CSU), the investigators will assess whether a culturally adapted version of iCBT ESTEEM demonstrates significant reductions in HIV risk behavior and mental health symptoms (e.g., depression, anxiety) compared to self-monitoring of stress and mood.
