Genome-wide association studies find that a large number of genetic variants jointly influence the risk of depression, which is summarized by polygenic indices (PGIs) of depressive symptoms and major ...
Diabetes and depression are both serious health conditions. While their relationship is bidirectional and each condition adversely affects outcomes for the other, they are treated separately. In low a...
Hemorheological parameters have been reported to be altered in cardiovascular disease. Major depression has been associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease....
Our hypothesis is that hemorheological parameters are disturbed in major depressive disorder....
Major depressive disorder and control groups consisted of 50 subjects. Plasma viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation, erythrocyte deformability, hematological parameters and hematological parameters were ...
Plasma viscosity was statistically significantly higher, erythrocyte elongation index at 0.53 Pa and 0.95 Pa was lower, and MCV, MCH, and MCHC values were also lower in the major depression group (P <...
The increased plasma viscosity and decreased elongation index of erythrocytes indicate an unfavorable hemorheological situation in patients with major depressive disorder compared with healthy control...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most prevalent gynecological endocrine conditions affecting reproductive women. It can feature a variety of symptoms, such as obesity, insulin resistance...
Nearly one-third of all stroke patients develop depression at any time after a stroke, and its presence is associated with unfavorable outcomes. This narrative review aims to provide a synopsis of pos...
Positive and negative affect play critical roles in depression and anxiety treatment, but the dynamic processes of how affect changes over treatment in relation to changes in symptoms is unclear. The ...
This secondary analysis used a combined sample (...
Increases in positive affect predicted subsequent decreases in depression and anxiety symptoms, regardless of treatment condition. Symptoms did not reciprocally predict changes in positive affect. For...
Results did not support a reciprocal relationship between positive affect and symptoms of depression and anxiety since positive affect predicted depression and anxiety symptoms but not vice versa. Res...
Rumination is a well-established contributor to the severity of depression and anxiety. It is unknown, however, whether individual differences in the temporal dynamics of rumination over time predict ...
The current study examined whether the dynamic indices of ruminative inertia and variability assessed over 14 days via ecological momentary assessment predicted change in symptoms of depression, gener...
Controlling for ruminative variability, baseline levels of the dependent variable, sex, and mean levels of momentary rumination, ruminative inertia did not predict change in symptoms of depression, ge...
These results suggest that ruminative variability may be a risk factor for increases in symptoms of depression and social anxiety over time and a potentially useful target for clinical intervention....
With more than 20 million adults experiencing a major depressive episode in 2020, depression is one of the most widespread and costly illnesses in the United States....
An audit of medical records at an outpatient psychiatric clinic revealed that none of the patients (0/56) were receiving standardized depression screening at follow-up appointments....
An 8-week rapid cycle Plan-Do-Study-Act model for change was used to spearhead a quality improvement (QI) project for effective depression care. The QI project comprised ongoing data collection throug...
The Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) was used to assess depression, and an effective care log (ECL) measured effective depression care. Every 2 weeks, a TOC was implemented, which guided further...
Effective depression care increased to 74% over the course of the project, surpassing the initial aim of 50%. Completion rates of the PHQ-9 (76%) and ECL (91%) increased. Team engagement (27.1) also i...
This project improved effective depression care. The success was largely due to the iterative TOCs, ECL, and team engagement....
Neurodevelopmental psychopathology seeks to understand higher-order emotion regulation circuitry to develop new therapies for adolescents with depression. Depressed (...
To identify longitudinal trajectories of depression in the first six months following limb loss and to explore baseline predictors of trajectories, including pain and demographic factors. A secondary ...
Secondary longitudinal data analysis of an inception cohort study of persons with new onset limb loss. Participants completed assessments at three intervals (initial, 3- and 6-months)....
hospitalized care, acute rehabilitation, ambulatory care, and community....
Participants were recruited from consecutive cases of amputation surgery in a metropolitan hospital system over a period of four years (2002-2007). Final sample (n = 203) was predominantly White (79.3...
Depression, assessed via Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9); posttraumatic stress symptoms measured via the PTSD checklist- Civilian Version (PCL-C)....
Four trajectories of depression were identified via Latent Growth Mixture Modeling: Resilience (73.2%), Chronic Depression (11.2%), Emerging Depression (8.9%), and Recovery (6.7%). Average pain intens...
Findings reveal the course of depression post-amputation is heterogenous, with varying profiles of symptom development, maintenance, and remission. A majority of individuals were classified as Resilie...
