Influence of childhood adversities and defense styles on the 1-year follow-up of psychosomatic- psychotherapeutic inpatient treatment

2005

Abstract The current study explores the connection between reported sexual abuse and physical maltreatment during childhood and immature defense styles as affecting the 1-year follow-up of inpatients who had undergone psychodynamic group therapy. Early traumatization was assessed using a structured patient interview and the defense styles by means of the questionnaire on defense styles. Reduction in psychological distress and improvement in health-related quality of life formed the parameters against which success of treatment was measured. At the 1-year follow-up, the entire sample showed a distinct improvement. The effect sizes for health-related quality of life ranged from 0.82 to 1.21, …

Abstract # 3128 Metabolic-inflammatory status as predictor of clinical outcome at 1-year follow-up in patients with first episode psychosis

2019

Metabolic abnormalities and peripheral inflammation have been increasingly reported in patients at their first episode of psychosis (FEP) and associated with increased mortality. However, the impact of an abnormal metabolic-inflammatory status on the psychiatric outcome of FEP is understudied. This study aimed 1) to combine metabolic and inflammatory variables in factors accounting for an overall metabolic-inflammatory status in FEP patients; 2) to explore the association between these factors and clinical outcome at 1 year. We recruited 43 FEP patients and 50 healthy controls (HC). At baseline (T1) we measured high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) as inflammatory biomarker, and body …

Cognitive therapy for autogenous and reactive obsessions: Clinical and cognitive outcomes at post-treatment and 1-year follow-up

2009

This study provides data about the differential effectiveness of cognitive therapy (CT) for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) symptom presentation. Two OCD manifestations, autogenous and reactive, are considered. Seventy OCD patients started CT; 81.40% completed it and 72.85% were available 1 year later. Fifteen of the 57 treatment completers had autogenous obsessions, whereas 33 had reactive obsessions. Nine patients had both obsession modalities. Reactive patients were more severe, as they scored higher on thought suppression and on the dysfunctional beliefs of intolerance to uncertainty and perfectionism. Autogenous patients scored higher on the over-importance of thoughts beliefs. Alt…

Effect of cognitive impairment on basic activities of daily living in hip fracture patients: a 1-year follow-up.

2007

Background and aims: To compare changes in basic self-care activities in various cognitive groups of hip fracture patients by the Katz Index of Independence in activities of daily living (ADL). Methods: 117 community-dwelling elderly subjects with acute hip fracture (age 67–92 years), referred to the geriatric unit of Jyvaskyla Central Hospital for rehabilitation, participated in the study. Basic self-care activities were evaluated by the Katz ADL Index and cognition by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). Results: Prior to hip fracture, the patients in the lowest MMSE group had a significantly lower Katz Index than the other three groups (p<0.001). Disability increased in a statistica…

Motivational characteristics and resistance training in older adults: A randomized controlled trial and 1-year follow-up

2018

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a 9‐month supervised resistance training intervention on motivational and volitional characteristics related to exercise, and whether the absolute level and/or intervention‐induced change in these characteristics predict self‐directed continuation of resistance training 1 year after the intervention. Community dwelling older adults aged 65‐75, who did not fulfill physical activity recommendations, were randomized into resistance training intervention groups: training once‐ (n = 26), twice‐ (n = 27), three‐times‐a‐week (n = 28) or non‐training control group (n = 25). Training groups participated in supervised resistance training for 9 m…

Prognosis of silent atrial fibrillation after acute myocardial infarction at 1-year follow-up

2014

Silent atrial fibrillation (AF), assessed by continuous ECG monitoring (CEM), has recently been shown to be common in acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and associated with higher hospital mortality. However, the long-term prognosis is still unknown. We aimed to assess 1-year prognosis in patients experiencing silent AF in AMI.All consecutive patients with AMI who were prospectively analysed by CEM during the first 48 h after admission and who survived at hospital discharge were included. Silent AF was defined as asymptomatic episodes lasting at least 30 s. Patients were followed up at 1 year for cardiovascular (CV) outcomes.Among the 737 patients analysed, 106 (14%) developed silent AF and…

Outcome comparison among working adults with centralizing low back pain: Secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial with 1-year follow-up

2009

Our purpose was to examine if adults with centralizing pain might achieve better treatment outcomes when treated by individually designed therapy than “given advice only to stay active”. One hundred and nineteen working adults with first or a recurrent episode of low back pain (LBP) were classified as centralizers and were randomly allocated to orthopaedic manual therapy (OMT; n=42), the McKenzie (n=48) or “advice only to stay active” (Advice-only; n=29) groups. Back and leg pain were assessed by the visual analogue scale, disability with the Roland–Morris questionnaire and functional status with an activities of daily living (ADL) index. Immediately after the treatment period, LBP decrease…
