Objectives To analyze the prevalence and clinical features of depression, anxiety, depression and anxiety in Tibetan patients with epilepsy and to improve the diagnosis and treatment. Methods 102 patients with epilepsy, who had been admitted to the Department of Neurology of the People's Hospital of Tibet Autonomous Region from January 2017 to December 2017, were diagnosed according to the Chinese Standard Classification and Diagnostic Criteria for Mental Disorders (3rd Edition) (CCMD-3). The Hamilton depression scale (HAMD 24 items) and the Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA 14 items) were used to measure depression and anxiety. Different genders, ages, durations, frequency of attacks, and seizures types were analyzed for depression, anxiety, depression and anxiety. Univariate analysis was used to screen the factors that may cause depression, anxiety, depression and anxiety in patients with epilepsy. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of depression, anxiety, depression and anxiety in patients with epilepsy. Results Among the 102 patients with epilepsy, 35 (34.31%) comorbid depression, 10 (9.80%) comorbid anxiety, and 54 (52.94%) comorbid depression and anxiety. Univariate analysis showed that there was a significantly statistical difference in the duration of the disease and the frequency of seizures in local patients with epilepsy (P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in the frequency of epileptic seizures and anxiety (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the probability of anxiety in patients with a disease duration of ≤2 years was only 10.1% of those with a course >2 years [OR=0.101, 95%CI (0.012, 0.915), P<0.05]; and the frequency of seizures was not an risk factors for epileptic comorbid with anxiety (P>0.05). The rate of depression and anxiety in patients with seizure frequency >2 times per month was 4.853 times higher than that of patients with seizure frequency ≤2 times per month [OR=4.853, 95%CI (2.024, 11.634), P<0.05]. Conclusions Tibetan patients with epilepsy have a high prevalence of depression, anxiety, depression and anxiety. In the diagnosis and treatment, we should strengthen the understanding and provide the appropriate prevention and treatment to improve the diagnosis and treatment level.
ObjectiveTo investigate the role of mindfulness-based stress reduction in improving anxiety and depression in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.MethodsFrom August 2016 to August 2018, a total of 196 elderly patients with chronic heart failure were randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group, with 98 cases in each group. The control group received routine care. The treatment group received routine care plus mindfulness-based stress reduction in two 60-minute sessions a week for 8 weeks. The level of serum N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) was detected by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was measured by echocardiography before intervention and at week 8 of intervention; the effective rate was calculated. Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), and General Well-Being scale (GWB) were used to assess the degree of anxiety, depression, and well-being of patients before intervention and at week 8 of intervention.ResultsThe serum NT-proBNP levels at week 8 of intervention in the two groups were lower than those before intervention, and the LVEFs were higher than those before intervention (P<0.05). The treatment group showed significant changes when compared with the control group (P<0.05). The effective rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group (89.80% vs. 69.39%, P<0.05). Before intervention, the SAS scores in the treatment group and the control group were 56.61±8.25 and 55.98±6.32, respectively, the SDS scores were 59.98±7.21 and 58.86±6.17, respectively, and the GWB scores were 53.19±12.38 and 54.06±10.93, respectively; at week 8 of intervention, the SAS scores in the treatment group and the control group were 40.56±8.17 and 46.25±5.43, respectively, the SDS scores were 42.85±5.77 and 48.34±8.01, respectively, and the GWB scores were 76.17±9.63 and 68.58±13.30, respectively. At week 8 of intervention, the SAS and SDS scores of the two groups were both lower than those before intervention, and the GWB scores were higher than those before intervention (P<0.05). The treatment group showed significant changes when compared with the control group (P<0.05).ConclusionMindfulness-based stress reduction can improve the anxiety and depression of elderly patients with chronic heart failure, improve their well-being and promote the recovery of heart function.

Objective To investigate the incidences of anxiety and depressive symptoms among patients with intrauterine adhesions (IUA) managed by day surgery model, and explore their influential factors. Methods Convenience sampling was used to select patients who underwent day surgery at West China Second University Hospital, Sichuan University between January 2021 and December 2022. General information questionnaire and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale were used to assess the socio-demographic data and anxiety and depressive symptoms of the participants. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influential factors of anxiety and depressive symptoms. Results A total of 1100 patients were included. The incidence of anxiety and depressive were 16.5% (181/1 100) and 16.9% (186/1 100) among patients undergoing day surgery for IUA respectively. Longer waiting days for admission [odds ratio (OR)=1.012, 95% confidence interval (CI) (1.004, 1.020), P=0.004], married [OR=0.547, 95%CI (0.344, 0.869), P=0.011], more times of adhesion separation [OR=0.826, 95%CI (0.691, 0.986), P=0.034], older age [OR=0.947, 95%CI (0.909, 0.987), P=0.010] were influencing factors for anxiety symptoms in patients with IUA. Unemployment [OR=0.504, 95%CI (0.256, 0.994), P=0.048], university or undergraduate education [OR=0.326, 95%CI (0.208, 0.512), P<0.001], and high school or vocational school education [OR=0.532, 95%CI (0.319, 0.888), P=0.016] were the influencing factors for depressive symptoms in patients with IUA. Conclusions There is a high incidence of anxiety and depressive symptoms among patients with IUA under the management of day surgery mode. The influential factors include socio-demographic factors (age, education level, marital status and occupation) and disease factors (times of adhesion). Medical staff should pay attention to the early screening of mental health status of patients with IUA, and give targeted prevention and treatment measures.

Methods The general information and Zung′s self rating anxiety scale (SAS) were taken to analyze 219 patients from early November to early December 2009. Results The average SAS score of the 219 patients was 33.70±8.60, in which there were 17 patients (7.76%) with total scores ≥ 50 and anxiety. Multiple regression analysis showed that the age and temperature were related factors among age, gender, urban-rural differences, and fever. Conclusion The survey suggests that the pafients at the H1N1 influenza peak of fever clinics are significantly more anxious than normal anxiety. Out-patient work should strengthen psychological care to reduce and try to eliminate the anxiety of patients, in order to avoid adverse impact which is not conducive to control influenza outbreaks.
Objective To evaluate the effect of visual and audiovisual distraction on anxiety and acceptance levels among patients undergoing colonoscopy. Methods A total of 180 consecutive patients undergoing colonoscopy were randomly divided into three groups: group A received visual distraction; group B received audiovisual distraction; and group C received routine care alone. Levels of anxiety and willingness to accept the same intervention if the procedure needed to be repeated were compared among the three groups. Results The reduction of anxiety score after colonoscopy in group A and group B was greater than that in group C, but the difference was not statistically significant. The rate of willingness to accept the same intervention if the procedure needed to be repeated was significantly different among the three groups: the rates for group A and group B were higher than for group C (Plt;0.05). Conclusions Both visual distraction and audiovisual distraction can significantly improve patients’ acceptance of colonoscopy. Visual distraction and audiovisual distraction have no significant effect on reducing anxiety.
