<h4>Background</h4>Managing hemophilia is challenging both in terms of medical treatment and its broad impact on many aspects of the individual's life, including self-perception. Several psychosocial issues are potentially relevant in the clinical management of hemophilia, including it being a chronic and incurable condition; e.g. people with hemophilia must adapt to optimally interact with peers and to practice sports - even choosing a sport represents an issue for perceived limitations, expect ...[more]

Project description:BackgroundPsychotic disorders are commonly accompanied by intense psychological burden, and psychological interventions are usually needed in order to reduce the symptoms and help in maintaining or improving the level of psychological and social functioning after the onset of psychosis. The evidence-base for treating young people at risk for psychosis and adults with psychotic disorders is accumulating. Yet, pervasive systematic literature reviews that would include patients from the full age range being the most essential period for the risk of developing a psychotic disorder, a wide range of psychological interventions, and various types of clinical trials, have been lacking. The aim of this systematic review is to fill the gap by presenting the current research evidence from clinical trials on the effectiveness of psychological interventions for treating young people (12-30) with psychotic disorders.MethodsA systematic search was conducted in PubMed and PsycINFO followed by a 3-step screening process based on the PICOS strategy. Risk of bias of the included studies was assessed by the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Extracted data from the included studies is reported using a narrative synthesis.ResultsOf the 1,449 publications screened, 40 from 25 studies were included in the review. Of these, 10 studies reported results from cognitive or behavioral therapy, nine from cognitive remediation therapy (CRT), and six from other types of therapies (i.e., integrative interventions combining psychoeducation and family/group interventions). All but one study found the target interventions to be effective, but the results mostly did not differ significantly from the control conditions in reducing symptoms and improving functioning, preventing relapses and hospitalization, or improving psychological or family variables. The most consistent findings were from CRT, showing more improvement in cognitive functioning compared to control conditions while not being superior in reducing symptom severity. Integrative interventions might be effective in treating young people suffering from psychotic disorders.ConclusionThere is some evidence that psychological interventions are effective for young people with psychotic disorders. However, with regard to symptom severity, psychotherapy does not outperform control conditions, and the results do not strongly favor any specific type of treatment.Systematic review registration[https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42020166756], identifier [CRD42020166756].

Project description:Background: There is some evidence demonstrating the effect of psychological interventions in improvements in health biological parameters. To best of our knowledge, no study had addressed the impact of any psychological intervention on extracellular vesicles. In addition, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Emotion Focused Therapy for Cancer Recovery (EFT-CR) in the group have never been explored regarding extracellular vesicles and the effectiveness of these was not compared yet.
Objectives:
1. To explore and compare the effect of MBCT and EFT-CR on biological parameters and psychological variables in distressed people who have had breast, prostate and colorectal cancer;
2. In addition, we will explore the acceptability through recruitment and retention rates of MBCT and EFT-CR in group and evaluate whether these interventions are appropriate for a larger clinical trial.
Methods: The design of this study is a parallel randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomized into MBCT, EFT-CR or usual care. Outcome measures will be assessed before, at the end of the intervention (8 weeks) and follow-ups (24 and 52 weeks from the baseline moment).
Hypotheses: The researchers expected that both interventions will have an effect on extracellular vesicles and other study biomarkers as well as improvements in psychological outcomes, compared to treatment as usual (TAU) group. Regarding the comparative effectiveness, we did not have evidence to hypothesize which one of the interventions will be superior in both biological (extracellular vesicles) and psychological outcomes.
Contribution for practice: The results of this preliminary study would permit to know if there are benefits of these psychological interventions on changes in extracellular vesicles and on psychological outcomes related to health. In addition, this study will permit to determine the acceptability of conducting a larger randomized controlled trial.

Project description:Implementing psychological interventions in healthcare services requires an understanding of the organisational context. We conducted an interview study with UK National Health Service stakeholders to understand the barriers and facilitators for implementing psychological interventions for people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD). We used TANDEM as an exemplar intervention; a psychological intervention recently evaluated in a randomised controlled trial. Twenty participants providing care and/or services to people with COPD were purposively sampled from NHS primary/secondary care, and commissioning organisations. Participants were recruited via professional networks and referrals. Verbatim transcripts of semi-structured interviews were analysed using thematic analysis. Four themes were identified: (1) Living with COPD and emotional distress affects engagement with physical and psychological services; (2) Resource limitations affects service provision in COPD; (3) Provision of integrated care is important for patient well-being; and (4) Healthcare communication can be an enabler or a barrier to patient engagement. People need support with physical and psychological symptoms inherent with COPD and healthcare should be provided holistically. Respiratory healthcare professionals are considered able to provide psychologically informed approaches, but resources must be available for training, staff supervision and service integration. Communication between professionals is vital for clear understanding of an intervention's aims and content, to facilitate referrals and uptake. There was widespread commitment to integrating psychological and physical care, and support of respiratory healthcare professionals' role in delivering psychological interventions but significant barriers to implementation due to concerns around resources and cost efficiency. The current study informs future intervention development and implementation.

Project description:Objective: The objective of our current research is to compare the different psychological interventions and distinguish the most effective way to treat psychological crisis according to different clinical manifestations in people affected by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). No previous systematic review has provided a comprehensive overview by performing a Bayesian network meta-analysis of this current topic. Method: A systematic review and a Bayesian network meta-analysis were conducted on randomized controlled trials (RCTs), non-RCTs, case-control studies, self-controlled case series (SCCS), cohort studies, and cross-sectional studies of all the available interventions for psychological crisis in people affected by COVID-19. We searched the electronic databases EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, PsycINFO, and Cochrane Library, as well as the Chinese databases such as Sinomed, Chinese Biomedicine Literature (CBM), Chinese Scientific Journal Database (VIP), WanFang Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), from 2019 to April 30, 2020. The main outcomes were self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depression scale (SDS), patient health questionnaire (PHQ-9), and symptom checklist (SCL-90). The study is registered with Inplasy, number 202050076. Result: Sixteen self-controlled case series (SCCS) comprising 1,147 participants compared five different psychological interventions with four different measurement scales were included in this study. For effectiveness, all the psychological therapies were significantly more effective than before intervention. Our results showed that supportive therapy (ST), which is adjusted to the COVID-19-related mental crisis, is the best treatment compared with behavioral therapy (BT), nursing-based psychological therapy (NBPT), traditional Chinese medicine therapy (TCMT), and COVID-19-related standard training (CRST) at reducing the anxiety-related symptoms assessed by SAS. When measured by SDS, BT was better than ST and NBPT treatment for reducing the depression symptoms. And ST was better than BT and ST+BT as assessed by PHQ-9. In the end, the last network meta-analysis indicated that NBPT was more effective than ST by the measurement of SCL-90. Conclusion: Our research suggested the potential effectiveness of psychological interventions for decreasing psychological crisis in people affected by COVID-19 and try to introduce the best effective treatment options for clinical practice according to the clinical manifestations of psychological problems, but further confirmation from high-quality RCTs is needed.

Project description:Detailed information on the onset, frequency, and severity of bleeding in nonsevere hemophilia is limited. We aimed to assess the bleeding phenotype of persons with nonsevere hemophilia and to analyze the association between baseline factor VIII/IX (FVIII/IX) levels and the joint bleeding rate. In the DYNAMO (Dynamic Interplay Between Bleeding Phenotype and Baseline Factor Level in Moderate and Mild Hemophilia A and B) study, an international multicenter cohort, we included males with nonsevere hemophilia (FVIII/IX, 0.02-0.35 IU/mL) aged 12 to 55 years. Information on age at first treated (joint) bleed, annual bleeding rates (ABRs), and annual joint bleeding rates (AJBRs) was collected from the medical files. The association between baseline FVIII/IX levels and the joint bleeding rate was assessed by using a frailty model for recurrent events. In total, 304 persons (70 with moderate hemophilia and 234 with mild hemophilia) were included. The median age was 38 years (interquartile range [IQR], 25-49 years), and the median baseline FVIII/IX level was 0.12 IU/mL (IQR, 0.05-0.21 IU/mL). In total, 245 (81%) persons had experienced at least 1 bleed, and 156 (51%) had experienced at least 1 joint bleed. The median age at first bleed and first joint bleed was 8 and 10 years, respectively. The median ABR and AJBR was 0.2 (IQR, 0.1-0.5) and 0.0 (IQR, 0.0-0.2). From baseline FVIII/IX levels 0.02 to 0.05 IU/mL to >0.25 IU/mL, the median ABR decreased from 0.6 (IQR, 0.2-1.4) to 0.1 (IQR, 0.0-0.2) and the AJBR from 0.2 (IQR, 0.0-0.4) to 0.0 (IQR, 0.0-0.0). Baseline FVIII/IX was inversely associated with the joint bleeding rate (P < .001). Low bleeding rates were observed in persons with nonsevere hemophilia. However, one-half of all adolescents and adults had experienced a joint bleed.

Project description:BackgroundSelf-harm is a major health issue resulting in high societal costs. Few psychological and psychosocial interventions have shown effectiveness in reducing repeat self-harm.ObjectiveTo assess the cost-effectiveness of psychological and psychosocial interventions that have shown evidence of effectiveness in adults and CYP (children and young people) who have self-harmed.MethodsUsing effectiveness data from Cochrane reviews, we developed two decision-analytical models to compare costs and quality-adjusted life years (QALYs) of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)-informed psychological therapy added to treatment as usual (TAU) versus TAU alone for adults who have self-harmed, and of dialectical behavioural therapy for adolescents (DBT-A) versus enhanced TAU for CYP who have self-harmed, respectively, from a National Health Service and personal social services perspective in England. Other model input parameters were obtained from published sources, supplemented by expert opinion.FindingsThe incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER) of CBT-informed psychological therapy added to TAU versus TAU alone for adults who have self-harmed was £9088/QALY. The ICER of DBT-A versus enhanced TAU for CYP who have self-harmed was £268 601/QALY. Results were overall robust to the alternative scenarios tested.Conclusions and clinical implicationsCBT-informed psychological therapy appears to be cost-effective for adults who have self-harmed, which contributes to evidence for its implementation in services. Currently, DBT-A does not seem to be cost-effective for CYP who have self-harmed. The economic analyses were informed by clinical evidence of moderate-to-low (CBT) and low (DBT-A) quality. Further clinical and economic evidence for DBT-A and other psychological and psychosocial interventions for people who have self-harmed is required.
