Online audio-visual information on oral cancer for Spanish-speaking laypersons. A cross-sectional study

2021

Background Lack of knowledge and awareness of oral cancer seem to be the main causes of diagnostic delay. Online resources are often used by patients to obtain health/medical information. However, there are no reports on the quality and usefulness of oral cancer audio-visual resources in Spanish. The aims of this investigation were to disclose the type of information about oral cancer available, and whether it may be useful to shorten the patients’ oral cancer appraisal time-interval. Material and Methods Cross-sectional study undertaken at three video-sharing sites on October, 13th 2019. Keywords: “Cáncer oral”; “cáncer de boca”. The first 100 results in each viewing list were retrieved by…

The genetic epidemiology of unipolar depression and panic disorder.

Subtypes of panic attacks and ICD-9 classification.

1986

No single ICD-9 category corresponds to panic disorder (DSM-III). To investigate whether patients with panic attacks can be identified by means of ICD-9, 97 patients with three panic attacks within 3 weeks were recruited from various medical centers, and were classified independently according to DSM-III and ICD-9. The ICD-9 diagnoses were scattered over a broad range of categories, and it was impossible to identify patients with panic disorder in this manner. Anxiety state, affective psychosis, and depressive neurosis were the most frequent ICD-9 diagnoses. The boundary between affective psychosis on the one hand and anxiety state and depressive neurosis on the other hand was validated by …

Inventario Clark-Beck de Obsesión-Compulsión (C-BOCI) : validación para su uso en población española

2009

The Clark-Beck Obsessive-Compulsive Inventory (C-BOCI) is a new self-administered inventory (Clark & Beck, 2002), designed to offer a valid, specifi c and reliable tool for the screening of the Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD): it assesses symptoms, their consequences, and takes into account the assumptions of current cognitive models about the disorder. The aim of this study has been to examine the usefulness of the C-BOCI in Spanish population. The questionnaire was completed together with other OCD, depression, and anxiety instruments by 506 adults without mental disorders and 44 OCD patients. The α values were ≥ 0.80 except for the obsessions subs- cale in the OCD group. Concurrent a…

Capacidad de perdonar en pacientes en tratamiento psiquiátrico y psicológico ambulatorio

2008

Data gathered administering SCL-90-R (Spanish version) and a scale developed to assess Capacity to Forgive (CAPER) are presented. The study was carried out on a sample of 107 outpatients from Buenos Aires city and its suburban area (64 % women, 36 % men; average age: 36 years old) from a private Mental Health Center. A significant statistical negative correlation (Pearson r) was found between forgiveness and presence of psychopathological symptoms.

Association of aMAOAgene variant with generalized anxiety disorder, but not with panic disorder or major depression

2001

This study was conducted to detect a possible association of a T941G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) gene with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder (PD), or major depression (MD). Fifty GAD patients (34 females and 16 males), 38 PD patients (21 females and 17 males), and 108 MD patients (80 females and 28 males) were included. The comparison group consisted of 276 (132 females and 144 males) unrelated healthy individuals. The 941T allele was over-represented in patients suffering from GAD (chi(2) = 6.757; df = 1; P < 0.01, not corrected for multiple testing) when compared to healthy volunteers. No association was observed in MD or PD. Thi…

Genotype-driven pharmacokinetic simulations of warfarin levels in Puerto Ricans.

2020

Abstract Objectives The inter-individual variability of warfarin dosing has been linked to genetic polymorphisms. This study was aimed at performing genotype-driven pharmacokinetic (PK) simulations to predict warfarin levels in Puerto Ricans. Methods Analysis of each individual dataset was performed by one-compartmental modeling using WinNonlin®v6.4. The k e of warfarin given a cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) genotype ranged from 0.0189 to 0.0075 h−1. K a and V d parameters were taken from literature. Data from 128 subjects were divided into two groups (i.e., wild-types and carriers) and statistical analyses of PK parameters were performed by unpaired t-tests. Results In the carrier group (n=6…

Programa de telepsicología para el tratamiento de la fobia a hablar en público en población mexicana

2014

La fobia social es un problema de salud mental a escala mundial que no es diagnosticada y atendida en forma adecuada. Debido a que México presenta una alta prevalencia del trastorno, se puso a prueba un programa de telepsicología para miedo a hablar en público, que anteriormente probó su eficacia en población española. La muestra se conformó por 43 participantes: 26 mujeres y 17 hombres, entre 19 y 60 años de edad (M = 32.51). Todos los participantes cumplían los criterios del dsm-iv para fobia social: miedo a hablar en público. Se empleó un ensayo clínico “aleatorizado” con tres condiciones de tratamiento: asistido por terapeuta (n = 16), auto aplicado (n = 14) y lista de espera (n = 13), …

Prevalence, New Incidence, Course, and Risk Factors of PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, and Panic Disorder during the Covid-19 Pandemic in 11 Countries

2021

We aimed to evaluate the prevalence and incidence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety, and panic disorder (PD) among citizens in 11 countries during the Covid-19 pandemic. We explored risks and protective factors most associated with the development of these mental health disorders and their course at 68 days follow up. We acquired 9543 unique responses via an online survey that was disseminated in UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Finland, India, Latvia, Poland, Romania, and Sweden. The prevalence and new incidence during the pandemic for at least one disorder was 48.6% and 17.6%, with the new incidence of PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic dis…
