Full textLa prevalencia de depresión es dos veces más frecuente en mujeres que en hombres, ésta es independiente del estado socioeconómico y la raza. Factores de tipo genético, biológico y neuroendocrino han sido asociados a la depresión. La prevalencia de depresión es mas frecuente en mujeres posmenopáusicas que en mujeres en edad reproductiva. La escala de Blatt Kupperman (BK) es una herramienta que ayuda a evaluar la severidad de los síntomas relacionados con la menopausia. El objetivo de este estudio es evaluar la utilidad de la escala de Blatt Kupperman para inferir un estado depresivo en mujeres posmenopáusicas. Material y métodos: Los síntomas relacionados con la menopausia fueron evaluados en un total de 865 pacientes utilizando la escala de Blatt Kupperman. El grado de depresión fué evaluado utilizando el cuestionario clínico para el diagnóstico de depresión del Dr. Guillermo Calderón Narváez, y de acuerdo a éste las pacientes se clasificaron con depresión, con reacción de ansiedad o sanas, es decir sin depresión. El análisis estadístico fué evaluado con la prueba de ANOVA. Resultados: El diagnóstico de depresión se efectuó en 251 pacientes (29.0%), el de reacción de ansiedad en 212 pacientes (24.5%) y 402 pacientes (46.5%) se diagnosticaron como normales. Al agrupar a la pacientes de acuerdo al resultado de la evaluación de la escala de Blatt Kupperman se encontró que no se diagnosticó depresión en aquellas pacientes que no presentaban síntomas relacionados con la menopausia, en cambio, se diagnosticó depresión en el 10.0 % cuando se encontraron síntomas mínimos, (BK menor a 15), 17.3% si se presentaban síntomas mínimos, 40.5% si presentaban síntomas moderados y 51.7% sí los síntomas de menopausia fueron severos (BK mayor a 36). Esta diferencia fué estadísticamente significativa (p < 0.001). Conclusiones: Todas las pacientes con un resultado de la escala de Blatt Kupperman por arriba de 36 deben de ser específicamente monitorizadas para descartar depresión. Más del 50 % de las pacientes con síntomas severos de depresión presentaron un cuadro depresivo concomitante.
The present includes a description of the menopausal associated symptoms and its relationship with depresive mood in postmenopausal women.
Prevalence of depressive illness is twice as high in women than in men, regardless of race and social or economic status. Several factors are linked to depression including genetic, biologic and neuroendocrine. Depression during menopause is twice as frequent than in reproductive age women. Blatt Kupperman (BK) scale is a tool to help evaluate the severity of menopausal symptoms. The objective of this study is to evaluate its usefulness in inferring postmenopausal depression. Material and methods: Symptoms related to post menopause were evaluated in 865 patients using BK and the grade of depression was later measured using a modified Hamilton Scale, rating patient conditions as depression, anxiety reaction and normal (without depression). The statistic analysis was by ANOVA test. Results: 251 (29.0%) patients were diagnosed as depressed, 212 (24.5%) as anxiety reaction and 402 (46.5%) as without depression. By grouping the results according to BK scale, we found that the prevalence of depression was 0% when menopause symptoms were absent, 10.0% when minimal symptoms (BK under 15), 17.3% with mild symptoms, 40.5 with moderate symptoms and 51.7% if symptoms were severe (BK over 36) (p < 0.001.). Conclusion: All menopausal patients with a BK over
symptoms have over 50% probability of also presenting an underlying depression case.

Full textThe present investigation aims to know the relationship between body dissatisfaction and depressive symptomatology in young women of Lima, furthermore to explore if there is a relationship between the mentioned variables and the body mass index (BMI). For it, 129 women between 18 and 25 years old (M = 20.52 SD = 1.85) were evaluated through the Body Shape Questionnaire (Castrillón et al., 2007) that measures the corporal discontent and the Depression Scale of the Epidemiological Center (Ruiz-Grosso et al., 2012) that calculates depressive symptoms, as well as their height and current weight were requested to calculate the BMI. In regard to the results, a direct and significant relationship between body dissatisfaction and depressive symptomatology was found. On the contrary, no relationship was found between body dissatisfaction and BMI, depressive symptomatology, and BMI. Finally, a significant difference was found between the actual weight and the ideal weight provided by the participants. Based on the results, we concluded that there is a correlation between body dissatisfaction and depressive symptomatology, and that both affects the quality of life generating a negative effect on mental health.

Objective: To assess the relationship between childhood sexual and physical abuse, and some key attitudinal and behavioural aspects of eating disorders. Method: Participants included 977 college students (708 females and 269 males) between the ages of 18 and 30. Abuse was measured by the Traumatic Life Events Questionnaire and eating disorders by the Eating Disorders Examination Questionnaire EDE-Q. Results: 14.3% of the females and 8.6% of the males have suffered childhood sexual abuse. Childhood physical abuse was reported by 3.8% of the females and 4.5% of the males. In females, an association was found between childhood sexual abuse and Weight Concern, after adjusting for depression, anxiety, self-esteem, BMI, age and socioeconomic status. An inverse relationship was found between childhood physical abuse and Restraint, Weight Concern, Shape Concern and Global-EDE-Q. No association was found between childhood abuse and behavioural aspects of eating disorders. In males, bivariant analysis rejected any association between childhood abuse and eating disorders symptomatology. Conclusion: Childhood sexual abuse increases the risk of eating disorders symptomatology in females, but not in males.

Full textWe set out to research psychiatric symptoms and socio-‐emotional skills in a family context. We project five general objectives: (1) to identify the relationship that exists between the psychiatric symptoms of the parental figures and sons/daughters; (2) analyze the repercussions of the psychiatric symptoms of the parental figures in the development of psychiatric symptoms of sons/daughters; (3) identify the existing relationship between the socio-‐emotional skills of the parental figures and sons/daughters; (4) analyze the repercussions of the socio-‐emotional skills of the parental figures in the development of socio-‐emotional skills of sons/daughters; and lastly, (5) identify the existing relationship between socio-‐emotional skills and psychiatric symptoms. For this purpose, we recruited non-‐consulting families composed of sons/daughters and parental figures (fathers and/or mothers) (N=218) and administered the Symptoms Check List 90 Review (SCL-‐90-‐R), to measure psychiatric symptoms and Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQi) for socio-‐ emotional intelligence. We performed two types of statistical analyses: Pearson Correlations and Lineal Regressions (Stepwise method). Results: (1) Regardless of the psychiatric manifestation of the father or mother, the metal health of sons/daughters is affected, especially by the psychoticism of the father/mother and the depressive symptoms of the mother. (2) The self-‐concept, optimism and adaptability of the parental figures determines the socio-‐emotional development in sons/daughters (we observed that the father is highly influential). (3) Optimism, happiness, interpersonal intelligence and adaptability are the main socio-‐emotional skills with repercussions on the general psychic suffering of the entire sample. When we triangulate age and gender, (4) we detect that the skills that are best at maintaining mental equilibrium are: adaptability in the paternal figure (fathers) and interpersonal intelligence in daughters. On the other hand, (5) we noted that there is little relationship between the socio-‐emotional intelligence of the parental figures, and the psychological distress of sons/daughters, or between the psychiatric symptoms of the parental figures and the socio-‐emotional skills of the sons/daughters. Apparently this relationship weakens when the son/daughter matures (average age of the group of sons/daughters: 27 years old). We concluded: (1) That mental health depends on socio-‐emotional development. It appears that there are internal factors (such as optimism and happiness) and external factors (such as the ability to establish and maintain interpersonal relationships and the ability to adapt to the environment) that protect us from feelings like shyness, shame, discouragement, listlessness and hopelessness. (2) That the psychotic traits of the father and depressive traits of the mother, are the aspects that most damage the general mental health of sons/daughters. (3) That the self-‐ concept, optimism and level of adaptability of parental figures promote the socio-‐emotional development of the sons/daughters. (4) That the father tends to facilitate skills associated to personal independence and empowerment (self-‐consideration, self-‐determination and assessment of reality), whereas the maternal figure tends to facilitate development of assertiveness. (5) That the paternal figure must be equally involved in the parenting process and must maintain sound socio-‐emotional development, in order to benefit the mental and emotional health of sons/daughters. (6) On the other hand, we realized the importance of maintaining a sound socio-‐ emotional adjustment throughout one's life, especially men who, due to socio-‐emotional influences, have less socio-‐emotional development, and therefore, tend to develop more psychiatric symptoms. (7) Lastly, we concluded that women must maintain active social networks both within and outside the family context. Likewise it is important that they decreases daily responsibilities, in order to better manage stress and protect themselves from depressive symptoms.

Full textThe aim of this study was to determine the relationship between stress and symptoms of eating disorders (TA) in adolescent, boys and girls, who are between 14 and 18 years old. For this purpose, the sample was composed by 208 students in fourth and fifth grade of high school. The Eating Disorder Inventory EDI-2 (Garner, Olmsted y Polivy, 1991) was used, as well as the Problems Questionnaire PQ (Seiffge-Krenke, 1995). We found that body dissatisfaction, bulimic behavior and obsession with thinness correlate to greater stress related to future problems and peer problems in girls, whilst in boys, body dissatisfaction, bulimic behavior and obsession with thinness increases with problems related to oneself. In addition, gender and body mass index generated differences in stress and eating disorder symptoms. Women present greater ED symptoms and stress levels. Additionally, adolescents who are overweight, are more dissatisfied with their bodies, and those with normal-weight perceive more stress related to interpersonal problems.

Full textEl TDAH es un trastorno del neurodesarrollo con déficit atencional, hiperactividad, impulsividad, autorregulación emocional alterada y problemas motores. Rasgos somáticos como hipermovilidad-articular, disautonomía, somatología y deterioro funcional/psicosocial han evidenciado ser característicos no incluyéndose en su diagnóstico. Aunque la farmacoterapia es el tratamiento de elección, se han observado beneficios de tratamientos no farmacológicos, representando la Fisioterapia una oportunidad en su abordaje multidisciplinar. Los desequilibrios autonómicos en patologías mentales brindan la oportunidad de estudiar los efectos neurofisiológicos fisioterapéuticos, representando la variabilidad-frecuencia-cardíaca (VFC) un marcador de la actividad autonómica, de la autorregulación y de la enfermedad psiquiátrica. Objetivos: Analizar los efectos neurofisiológicos a corto y medio/largo plazo de dos programas de terapia-manual (TM) en un grupo de niños con TDAH, a partir de parámetros dominio tiempo/frecuencia VFC. Analizar la relación entre características somáticas con la respuesta autonómica. Analizar-comparar la eficacia neuropsicológica de dos programas de TM a medio/largo plazo sobre síntomas nucleares del TDAH, desarrollo-psicosocial, calidad vida, autopercepción salud y efectos secundarios metilfenidato. Analizar la relación a medio/largo plazo entre la dimensión neurofisiológica-neuropsicológica-psicosocial para estudiar la influencia de los cambios neurovegetativos sobre el comportamiento. Material-métodos: Ensayo clínico a doble ciego en 48 niños/as con TDAH, aleatorizados en dos grupos intervención (GI). Ambos grupos recibieron tratamiento multimodal y 4 sesiones de dos programas de TM: masaje (GI1), TM-craneal (GI2). Variables: signos vitales, parámetros dominio tiempo/frecuencia VFC, hipermovilidad-articular, somatotipo, coordinación, control-motor, habilidades motoras finas, efectos secundarios metilfenidato (dimensión-biológica). Dimensión-neuropsicológica: oposicionismo, inatención, hiperactividad, índice-TDAH, atención selectiva, gravedad-mejoría. Dimensión-psicosocial: desarrollo-psicosocial, calidad vida, autopercepción salud. Resultados-Conclusiones: Niveles basales de hipermovilidad-articular, ectomorfia, deterioro-psicomotor, afectación desarrollo psicosocial, calidad vida, autopercepción salud, y predominio simpático basal (afectación control vagal cardíaco y peor autorregulación). El programa de TM-craneal, podría incluirse en el manejo del TDAH, por los efectos sobre habilidades motoras y su acción autonómica (desplazamiento a un predominio parasimpático). Incrementó control vagal cardíaco, aumentó el estado relajación, mejorando la autorregulación/autocontrol emocional. Los efectos de la TM-craneal objetivaron una correlación significativa entre la ratio LF/HF, efectos secundarios metilfenidato y desarrollo psicosocial. A medida que VFC se desplazaba a un predominio parasimpático, disminuyeron efectos secundarios metilfenidato y aumentó calidad de vida. Ambos programas mostraron efectos neuropsicológicos sobre síntomas nucleares del TDAH a medio/largo plazo. La TM-craneal mostró efectos significativos a medio/largo plazo sobre la satisfacción-autoestima, bienestar físico-emocional, participación familiar, resolución problemas y actividad física. Estos hallazgos confirman que el programa de TM-craneal parece ejercer efectos sobre las funciones vagales ya que las técnicas aplicadas tuvieron una influencia directa/indirecta sobre el recorrido del nervio vago. La evaluación de rasgos somáticos y neurofisiológicos debería incluirse en su diagnóstico, siendo necesario un enfoque que combine psicofarmacología, psicoterapia y Fisioterapia para tratar las manifestaciones somáticas y clínicas. La TM es una técnica segura que puede reducir los efectos secundarios farmacológicos mejorando la sintomatología, calidad vida, bienestar físico-emocional y relaciones interpersonales.
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder with attention deficit, hyperactivity, impulsivity, poor emotional self-regulation and motor problems. It carries a psychosocial functional impairment that should be considered. Somatic features such as joint-hypermobility, dysautonomia and somatology have been shown to be characteristic, not being included in the diagnostic criteria. Although pharmacotherapy remains the treatment of choice, benefits of non-pharmacological treatments have been observed, representing Physiotherapy (PT) an opportunity in a multidisciplinary approach. Autonomic imbalances involved in mental pathologies provide an opportunity to study the neurophysiological effects of PT, representing heart-rate-variability (HRV) a marker of the autonomic activity, of self-regulation and psychiatric illness. Purpose: To analyze short, medium/long-term neurophysiological effects of two manual-therapy (MT) programs in a group of ADHD children, based on time/frequency domain parameters of HRV, and the relationship between somatic features with the autonomic response. To analyze-compare the neuropsychological efficacy of two MT programs in the medium/long-term, on the core symptoms of ADHD, on psychosocial development, quality of life, health self-perception and on methylphenidate side effects. The medium/long-term relationship between neurophysiological-neuropsychological-psychosocial dimensions was investigated to study the influence of neurovegetative changes on behavior. Material-methods: A double-blind, clinical trial was conducted in 48 children with ADHD randomized into two intervention groups (IG’s). Both groups received multimodal treatment and 4 sessions of two MT programs: a massage (IG1) or a manual cranial-therapy (MCT) program (IG2). Variables: vital signs, time/frequency domain HRV parameters, joint-hypermobility, somatotype, coordination, motor-control, fine motor skills, methylphenidate side effects (biological-dimension). Neuropsychological-dimension: oppositionism, inattention, hyperactivity, ADHD-index, selective attention, severity-improvement. Psychosocial-dimension: psychosocial development, quality of life, health self-perception. Results-Conclusions: Baseline levels of joint-hypermobility, ectomorphism, psychomotor-impairment, impairment of psychosocial development, of quality of life, of health self-perception and basal sympathetic activity (reflecting a worse cardiac vagal control and self-regulation). The MCT program may be included in the management of ADHD, due to the effects in motor skills and its autonomic action (parasympathetic predominance). It also increased cardiac vagal control and the state of relaxation, improving both emotional self-regulation and self-control. The effects of the MCT program revealed a significant interrelation between the LF/HF ratio, methylphenidate side effects and psychosocial development. As HRV moved towards a predominance of parasympathetic activity, methylphenidate side effects decreased and quality of life increased. Both programs showed significant neuropsychological effects on ADHD core symptoms in the medium/long-term. The MCT program showed significant effects in the medium/long-term on satisfaction and self-esteem, physical well-being, emotional, family participation, problem solving and physical activity. These findings support that the MCT program may exert effects on vagal functions since the applied techniques had a direct/indirect influence on the vagus nerve pathways. The evaluation of somatic and neurophysiological features should be included in the diagnosis process, requiring an approach, combining psychopharmacology, psychotherapy and Physiotherapy to treat the somatic and clinical manifestations. Manual-therapy is a safe technique which may reduce pharmacotherapy side effects, improving the symptomatology of this condition, quality of life, physical-emotional well-being and interpersonal relationships.

Full textLa investigación sobre trastornos del comportamiento alimentario (TCA), especialmente la anorexia nerviosa (AN), se ha estudiado en función de factores individuales que probabilizan el desarrollo de dichos padecimientos. En este sentido, el propósito principal del presente estudio fue analizar la relación de autoestima, ansiedad y depresión con la sintomatología de AN en estudiantes universitarios. Para ello, se constituyó una muestra no probabilística de tipo intencional de 609 participantes (344 mujeres y 265 varones) de 17 a 34 años de edad (M = 19.67, DE = 2.69). Se administró una batería de pruebas conformada por el Test de Actitudes Alimentarias (EAT-40), la Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg, y los Inventarios de Ansiedad y Depresión de Beck. Por medio de tamizaje se encontraron 31 casos que superaron el punto de corte del EAT-40 (5.1%) siendo superior en las mujeres (7.3%) que en los hombres (2.3%). Además, los resultados indicaron que, en la muestra total, una mayor sintomatología de AN se asoció con mayores rasgos de depresión (r = .34, p < .0001) y de ansiedad (r = .32, p < .0001), así como con menores niveles de autoestima (r = -.18, p < .0001). Finalmente, se discuten los hallazgos obtenidos con la literatura revisada.

The sample consisted of 103 adolescents between 12 and 15 years old. As a group, they completed an adaptation of the “Adolescent Family Process” (AFP) scale to investigate the perception of the parental functions and the adaptation of the Inventory of Infant Depression (CDI) to explore depressive symptomatology. Results showed that there is an inverse relationship between the dimensions of parental perception and depressive symptomatology; especially in parent’s communication, closeness and support. On the other hand, it was found a direct relationship between depressive symptomatology and the perception of conflict. Furthermore, gender differences were found in the perception of maternal conflict, with women showing a higher perception of conflict with the maternal figure.

Full textSi queremos que la evaluación psicológica proporcione un retrato lo más cercano posible al funcionamiento del niño o adolescente, debemos evitar, de entrada, otorgar una etiqueta diagnóstica, procurar evaluar diversas áreas de funcionamiento y recoger información de diferentes informantes. También es necesario utilizar instrumentos variados que incluyan, si es posible, enfoques categoriales y dimensionales. Además estos instrumentos han de estar adaptados a la población y al contexto cultural en el que se aplican y contar con normas apropiadas para la edad y el sexo de los evaluados.
El objetivo de la tesis es estudiar la utilidad de un procedimiento de evaluación de la sintomatología depresiva en niños y adolescentes, y adaptar a población catalana diversas medidas de autoinforme y heteroinforme que evalúan sintomatología psicopatológica en general, y sintomatología depresiva, en particular.
Se han evaluado dos grupos de participantes con edades entre 10 y 16 años: un grupo comunitario (1706 participantes) y uno clínico (285 participantes). A partir del grupo comunitario se ha seleccionado un grupo de control, con 46 participantes, y uno de riesgo, con 102 participantes y, a partir del grupo clínico, un subgrupo clínico, con 40 participantes.
Los instrumentos administrados han sido el Reynolds Adolescent Depression Scale (RADS), el Reynolds Child Depression Scale (RCDS) y el Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) en el grupo comunitario y clínico. En los grupos control, de riesgo y clínico se han administrado, además, el Youth Self Report (YSR), el Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), el Teacher Report Form (TRF), las Devereux Scales of Mental Disorders (DSMD) y una entrevista diagnóstica. Se han traducido, a catalán y castellano, y adaptado para este estudio el RADS, RCDS, CDI y DSMD. El procedimiento de traducción se ha realizado mediante una traducción directa del cuestionario del inglés al castellano y del inglés al catalán por dos traductores expertos y con conocimientos de evaluación psicológica y psicopatológica y una back translation del catalán y castellano al inglés, por otros traductores expertos.
Los resultados obtenidos muestran que los instrumentos adaptados tienen buena validez y fiabilidad y son útiles para la identificación y la evaluación de la sintomatología depresiva en niños y adolescentes tanto en el ámbito comunitario, y escolar, como en el ámbito clínico. Asimismo, el procedimiento de evaluación que se ha seguido en este estudio es útil para identificar este tipo de síntomas. Los datos que se recogen en este trabajo aportan una guía de evaluación multiestadio, con diferentes métodos e informantes, que no sólo serviría para evaluar la sintomatología que ha sido objeto de estudio sino que, con los estudios de validación correspondientes, podría aplicarse en otros trastornos de inicio en la infancia y la adolescencia.
Nowadays, depression is one of the most important mental health problems. Its presence in childhood and adolescence is expressed, as in adults, as a cluster of symptoms that may include anhedonia, lowered self-esteem, social withdrawal, fatigue, crying spells, sleeping and eating disturbances and self-destructive impulses. In children and adolescents, depressive symptoms could be expressed too as irritability, impaired school performance, problems in coping family troubles or in social relations with peers.
Study the utility of an assessment procedure of depressive symptomatology in children and adolescents, and adapt diferent methods of assessment from diferents sources of information is the main purpose of this doctoral dissertation.
Two samples of children and adolescent between 10 and 16 years old have been evaluated: one communitarian sample (1706 subjects) and one clinical sample (285 subjects). From the subjects of the communitarian sample, a control group (46 subjects) and a risk group (102 subjects) have been selected. Another clinical subgroup (40 subjects) have been selected from the clinical sample.
The instruments administrated are Reynolds Adolescent Depression Scale (RADS), Reynolds Child Depression Scale (RCDS) and Children's Depression Inventory (CDI) in the communitarian and clinical sample. In the control, risk and clinical subgroups also have been administrated Youth Self Report (YSR), Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Teacher Report Form (TRF), Devereux Scales of Mental Disorders (DSMD) and a diagnostic interview. RADS, RCDS, CDI y DSMD have been translated in Catalan and Spanish, and adapted for this study.
The adapted instruments have good reliability and validity and are useful to identify and assess depressive symptomatology in children and adolescents in communitarian, school and clinical context. Also, the assessment procedure evaluated is useful to identify these symptoms. Data collected in this doctoral dissertation bring a multistage, multimethod and multiinformant model not only to diagnostic childhood depression but also other childhood and adolescent psychopathology.

Full textThis research aims to describe the ability to interpret emotions and its relationship with depressive symptoms in a group of mothers of middle socioeconomic status. For this purpose participants were assessed with the Peruvian version of IFEEL and the BDI-II in its Argentina version. When grouped according to their level of depression, we found that mothers who have low levels of depression report greater Satisfaction in the IFEEL and have a tendency in the report of Self-Conceit; while mothers with mild and moderate levels reported a greater amount of Mixed Emotions. Additionally, a positive relationship was found between the global measure of depressive symptoms and the report of Surprise and an negative relationship with the report of Self-Conceit. Also, Somatic-Affective and Cognitive-Psychological factors of depression are negatively associated with the report of Caution-Shy. Finally, there is a direct relationship between the report of some specific depressive symptoms and the report of negative emotions such as Sadness, Fear, Self -Conceit, Disgust.

A total of four goals of the study were been defined. 1) Analyze the prevalent clinical symptomatology in FCPD with respect to the aforementioned factors, the actual context of the caregiving and stress factors. 2) Evaluate how FCPD emotionally manage anger with respect to the aforementioned factors, the actual context of the caregiving and stress factors as well as their relation with the clinical symptomatology. 3) Identify different types of personalities in FCPD with respect to the aforementioned factors, the actual context of the caregiving and stress factors as well as their relation with the clinical symptomatology and the way in which they emotionally manage anger. 4) Analyze how personality and anger management contribute to psychological suffering in relatives who care for persons with dementia. A total of 175 FCPD have participated in this study, 44 men (25.1%) and 131 women (74.9%) with an average age of 55.94 years (D.T.: 13.71), 59.83 years (D.T.: 16.05; range: 24-87) in the case of male caregivers and 54.66 years (D.T.: 12.64; range: 19-80) in the case of female caregivers. The participants filled in a socio-demographic questionnaire, the SCL-90-R, Symptom Checklist 90 Revised, the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory – STAXI-2 and the MIPS, Million Index of Personality Styles. The results, disaggregated by sex, show differential personality and anger management profiles for male and female caregivers. Moreover, significant differences were found between male and female caregivers both in psychological health and anger management and personality types, giving a clear indication of a higher vulnerability of female caregivers. The personality types that are considered to be less suited were directly related to higher psychological suffering and higher anger expression. Likewise, several socio-demographic factors and factors related to caregiving such as kinship, socio-economic level, cognitive deterioration of the person with dementia etc. have also supplied valuable information in their relation to the clinical symptomatology, anger management and personality types. The personality types as established in male and female caregivers allow identification of strengths and vulnerabilities for their psychological health. The conclusion is that the results demonstrate the importance of further investigating psychological assistance to FCPD, with a special emphasis on the contribution of personality types and anger management so as to include them in future psychological assistance programs in order to improve the involvement.

Full textThe aim of present study was to compare the levels of alexithymia according to the severity of depressive symptoms in a group of depressed patients. Furthermore, the other aims were to compare the different degrees of depressive symptomatology among themselves, compare the three factors of alexithymia according to the intensity of depressive symptoms and compare the levels of alexithymia with sociodemographic data. 51 patients with depression were assessed using Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II) and Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). Significant correlations were found between depression and alexithymia, where patients with more severe depressive symptoms had higher levels of alexithymia. Factors 1 and 2 had higher scores, but a relationship with factor 3 was not found. The present findings suggest that patients with more severe depressive symptoms tended to score higher on the TAS-20 due to the difficulties in identifying and verbalizing emotions, along with a tendency to somatize anything that they cannot understand or express..

To accomplish the main objective of this investigation, it was used the argentine version of Beck Depression Inventory (BDI – II) (Beck et al., 2006) and the spanish version of Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (Rodríguez, Rojo y Sepúlveda, 2009). The results show a direct and significant relationship between depressive symptoms and two dimensions of perfectionism: self-oriented perfectionism and socially prescribed perfectionism. In depressive symptoms, as well as in self-oriented perfectionism and socially prescribed perfectionism, it was found significant differences according to the chosen career and provenance place; which were discussed. Key words: depressive symptoms, perfectionism, university students

Full textThe purpose of this research was to analyze the possible relationship between the characteristics of alcohol consumption, and depressive and anxious symptomatology in a group of college students. The sample consisted of 73 students from a private university in Lima metropolitan area whose ages were between 18 and 24 years old (M = 19.07, SD = 1.50), mostly women (75.3%). The measurement of alcohol consumption characteristics was made through the Alcohol Consumption Survey (Arana, 2013), while depressive symptomatology was measured through the Argentine version (Brenlla y Rodríguez, 2006) of the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II). Concurrently, anxious symptomatology was measured through the Spanish version (Sanz, 2011) of the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). Although the results did not report a significant relationship between the study variables, it was found that the prevalence of binge drinking was 37.99%. In addition, the male prevalence was higher for episodes of excess of alcohol consumption. Also, other of the most consumed substances were tobacco and pills without prescription. In respect of symptomatology, minimal levels of depression were found with significant differences in the cognitive dimension among those who did not repeat courses for the second time from those who did. The anxious symptomatology was mild without significant differences according to sex or repetition of courses. In conclusion, despite the absence of a relationship between the variables studied, there is an important prevalence of alcohol and other substances, as well as depression and anxiety, which could negatively affect the participants.

The participants were 120 university students between 18 and 29 years of age, among men and women, from various universities in Metropolitan Lima. Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST v3.0), Beck´s Depression Inventory - II (BDI - II) and a sociodemographic data sheet were applied. The results showed a direct and small relationship between the risk of marijuana use and depressive symptomatology. Most of the participants were at a moderate level of risk of consumption and at a level of minimal depressive symptomatology. On the other hand, the frequency of consumption and the onset age of early consumption did not show a relationship with the depressive symptoms. In addition, no differences were found according to sex in terms of the variables involved. Possible explanations for these findings are proposed and some limitations present in the investigation are reported. The results of this research can contribute to a better understanding of certain problems in terms of physical and mental health.

To do this, Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) and Hopkins Symptoms Checklist 25 (HSCL-25) were used to assess 104 undergraduate medical students aged between 18 and 25 years (M = 20.14). In addition, relationships between these variables and personal data, including sociodemographic, academic and health information, were analyzed. Results showed a significant and positive moderated correlation between SCS total score and anxious and depressive symptomatology. However, it was observed that factors linked to negatives poles of self-compassion dimensions had stronger correlations compared with positive poles. Further, it can be suggested that these former factors are related and similar to variables associated with psychopathology

With this purpose, this study was made up of 116 adults of both sexes who exercise, whose ages oscillated between 18-61 years of age (M = 33.03 years; DE = 11.40). The Cognitive Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ) was used in its Spanish version validated in Perú (Dominguez y Medrano, 2016), the Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (ERQP) adapted in Peru (Gargurevich y Matos, 2010), the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) in its Argentinian version (Brenlla y Rodríguez, 2006), and the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) in its Spanish adaptation (Sanz, 2011). A direct relationship was found between the depressive and anxiety symptomatology and the emotional regulatory strategies other-blame, self-blame, rumination, catastrophizing and suppression, and between anxiety symptomatology and the acceptance strategy. In addition, it was found that depressive and anxiety symptomatology inversely correlated with the strategy positive refocusing, and that the cognitive reappraisal strategy inversely correlated with depressive symptomatology. Finally, differences were found according to certain sociodemographic variables and others related to physical exercise. The possible explanations of these findings are discussed, as well as the limitations of the study and the possible future lines to follow.

For which there was a correlational model where you applied the questionnaire of Childhood Depression (version adapted by Ramírez, 2009) in a sample of 280 children from 9 to 10 years who are enrolled in the fourth and fifth grade of primary education of various private educational centers of Lima. It was found that there is a positive relationship between the variables, that is, the higher the low self-esteem the greater is the degree of dysphoria. Also, we found a negative relationship between the components that make up the depressive symptomatology in function with the academic performance, that is, the higher the score of dysphoria and low self-esteem score academic performance decreases. Also, it carried out a comparative analysis between both sexes to know which is the one that presents greater predominance with respect to the proposed variables. The male sex tends to manifest greater dysphoria in comparison to the opposite sex, while women are those that have greater predominance in terms of low self-esteem. Finally, we performed a linear regression analysis to find out which of the variables predicted better academic performance, by which it was found that low self-esteem is a better predictor of poor academic performance.

Para ello se utilizaron el Inventario de Depresión de Beck BDI-II y el Inventario de Ansiedad de Beck BAI. La relevancia de este estudio radica, entre otros motivos, en describir las condiciones psicológicas en que se encuentran los alumnos de medicina, además de contribuir al abordaje de esta problemática en Chile. Se concluyó que los estudiantes presentan altos niveles de sintomatología depresiva y ansiosa, así como alta prevalencia de síndrome depresivo y ansioso, especialmente los de género femenino y aquellos que cursan tercer año. Por otro lado, los datos recolectados fueron significativamente mayores que los resultados de investigaciones similares, por lo que se acepta que los estudiantes de medicina de esta casa de estudios tendrían una clara tendencia a enfermar con mayor frecuencia que otros jóvenes universitarios

En el campo psicoanalítico, sin embargo, hay un consenso razonable respecto a la existencia de una estrecha relación entre el desarrollo psicosexual, contribución original de Freud, y el nacimiento del sentimiento de identidad. Esta investigación parte de una extensa revisión de las contribuciones teóricas (de los autores más clásicos a los más recientes) que constatan que las nociones de cuerpo e identidad son indisociables. De acuerdo con esta idea, y porque el cuerpo es sexuado, pasamos, posteriormente a una revisión de los conceptos de género y de estereotipos de género, así como al análisis de las relaciones entre la identidad de rol de género, a través de estereotipias sociales, la estima corporal individual y la posibilidad de existencia de psicopatología asociada. Participan en este estudio 480 alumnos de diferentes centros universitarios del norte de Portugal, de los que el 60,00% son mujeres y el 40,00% de sexo masculino. Los tres instrumentos de autoevaluación utilizados fueron el “Personal Attributes Questionnaire (PAQ)”, la “Body-Esteem Scale” y la “Symptom Distress Check-List (SCL-90-R)”. A partir de los principales resultados obtenidos en la presente investigación, concluimos que las muestras de cada uno de los sexos no perdieron los comportamientos y características estereotipadamente asociados a ellas. Comparando los resultados de estos estudios con aquellos obtenidos por los autores originales del PAQ (y por la mayoría de los estudios posteriores), hubo una adquisición de comportamientos y características estereotipadamente asociados al sexo opuesto, particularmente en el caso de los hombres. La masculinidad y la estima corporal de los hombres están vinculadas positivamente a la condición física. En cambio, la feminidad y la estima corporal de las mujeres por un lado se asocian de forma negativa a la preocupación por el peso y por otro, de forma positiva al atractivo sexual. Los comportamientos y características estereotipadamente identificados con la masculinidad (tanto en la muestra masculina como en la femenina) están asociados a una estima corporal superior y a niveles inferiores de sintomatología psicopatológica, en general, y depresiva, en particular. A su vez, los comportamientos y características identificados con la feminidad están asociados a una peor estima corporal y a niveles más elevados de sintomatología psicopatológica.
Identity is without doubt one of the most controversial notions in the domains of psychoanalysis and philosophy. In psychoanalysis, however, the existence of a close relationship between Freud’s original contribution of psychosexual development and the birth of a sense of identity is fairly consensual. This research is part of a wide-ranging review of the theoretical contributions (from the more classical to the most recent) that suggest that the notions of body and identity cannot be separated from one another. In line with this idea, and because the body is sexual, we shall review the concepts of gender and gender stereotypes and analyse the relations between identity and the role of gender in terms of social stereotypes, the individual’s body esteem and the possibility of associated psychopathology. This study involved the participation of 480 students from various higher education establishments and polytechnic institutes in the north of Portugal; 60.00% (288) were female and the other 40.00% (192) were male. The three self-assessment tools used were the Personal Attributes Questionnaire (PAQ), the Body-Esteem Scale and the Symptom Distress Check-List (SCL-90-R). Our main findings indicate that the populations of each sex studied have not lost the behaviour and characteristics stereotypically associated with them. When these results are compared with those reported by the authors of the PAQ (and by most of the subsequent studies), however, the acquisition of behaviours and characteristics stereotypically associated with the opposite sex was found in both sexes, particularly in the male population. Masculinity and body esteem in men are predominantly associated (positively) with physical condition, whereas femininity and body esteem in women are negatively associated with weight concern and positively with sexual attractiveness. The behaviours and characteristics identified stereotypically with masculinity (in the male and female populations) are associated with higher body esteem and lower levels of psychopathological symptomatology in general, and depressive symptoms, in particular. The behaviours and characteristics identified with femininity, meanwhile, are associated with lower body esteem and higher levels of psychopathological symptomatology.

No campo psicanalítico, todavia, é razoavelmente consensual a existência de uma estreita relação entre o desenvolvimento psicossexual, original contribuição de Freud, e o nascimento do sentimento de identidade. Este trabalho de investigação parte de uma extensa revisão dos contributos teóricos (dos mais clássicos aos mais recentes nesta área) que apontam para que as noções de corpo e de identidade sejam indissociáveis. Em conformidade com esta ideia, e porque o corpo é sexuado, referimo-nos, então, à revisão dos conceitos de género e de estereótipos de género, bem como à análise das relações entre a identidade de papel de género, em termos de estereotipias sociais, a estima corporal individual e a possibilidade de existência de psicopatologia associada.

Os três instrumentos de auto-avaliação utilizados foram o “Personal Attributes Questionnaire (PAQ)”, a “Body-Esteem Scale” e a “Symptom Distress Check-List (SCL-90-R)”. Os principais resultados, por nós obtidos, indicam que as populações estudadas de cada um dos sexos mantêm os comportamentos e características estereotipadamente a elas associados. Houve, contudo, e quando se comparam estes resultados com aqueles obtidos pelos autores originais da PAQ (e pela maioria dos estudos posteriores), uma aquisição de comportamentos e características estereotipadamente associados ao sexo oposto, particularmente no caso dos homens.

Os comportamentos e características estereotipadamente identificados com a masculinidade (quer na população masculina quer na população feminina) estão associados a uma estima corporal superior e a menores níveis de sintomatologia psicopatológica, em geral, e depressiva, em particular. Por seu lado, os comportamentos e características identificados com a feminilidade estão associados a uma estima corporal menor e a níveis de sintomatologia psicopatológica superiores.

En México, la investigación disponible para esta población comprende desde 1999 hasta 2008, específicamente, los estudios han estado dirigidos a: 1) evaluar la percepción de la imagen corporal y su relación con los presencia de trastornos alimentarios (Ocampo, López, Álvarez, & Mancilla, 1999; Vázquez et al., 2002), 2) identificar la presencia de trastornos alimentarios (Vázquez, López, Álvarez, Ocampo, & Mancilla, 2000), y 3) comparar el nivel de insatisfacción corporal entre bailarinas de ballet y estudiantes de bachillerato (Valdez y Guadarrama, 2008). Como puede observarse, la investigación es aún incipiente, por lo que existe la necesidad de ampliar el conocimiento en esta población. Por tanto, el propósito de la presente investigación fue evaluar la imagen corporal y la presencia de trastornos del comportamiento alimentario en bailarinas de ballet en México. Participó una muestra no probabilística de tipo intencional, conformada por 42 estudiantes de ballet con un rango de edad de 12 a 20 años (M = 15.45, DE = 2.40), provenientes de tres academias del Estado de México. Previo consentimiento y/o asentimiento informado, todas las participantes respondieron una batería de cinco instrumentos: el Cuestionario de Imagen Corporal (BSQ), el Cuestionario de Estima Corporal (BES), el Test de Actitudes Alimentarias (EAT-40), el Test de Investigación Bulímica de Edimburgo (BITE) y la Escala de Estima Corporal (BES), adicionalmente, las participantes fueron pesadas y medidas a fin de obtener su Índice de Masa Corporal. Posteriormente, se entrevistó a aquéllas participantes que rebasaron el punto de corte del EAT-40, el BSQ y/o el BITE. El análisis de resultados indicó que 64.3% de las bailarinas presentaron un peso normal, 30.1% infrapeso y el resto sobrepeso. Asimismo, 9.5% de las bailarinas rebasaron el punto de corte del BSQ y 2.4% del EAT-40, pero ninguna rebasó el punto de corte del BITE. A través de la entrevista diagnóstica, se identificó un caso de Bulimia Nerviosa (2.4%). Los resultados se discuten a la luz de estudios previos y al nivel de profesionalización de las participantes.

Full textThe experience of living with a teenage son or daughter who presents depressive symptoms and has tried to commit suicide, brings with it a particular emotional experience. The present study aims to explore this emotional experience in a group of five parents taking into account their subjectivity. To do this, from a phenomenological qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews and the application of a test of incomplete sentences were carried out to parents whose adolescent children received ambulatory care after a first suicide attempt in an psychiatric hospital in Lima. The results show that participants experience various emotions that revolve around anger, impotence, sadness, guilt and relief around three stages: the onset of symptoms, attendance at a psychiatric hospital and the perception of remission of the symptoms. It is evident that although at the beginning the parents find it difficult to get involved affectively with their younger children, they are able to resume their bond after a reorganization of their role.

The present study explores the relationship between adult attachment styles and dimensions proposed by Bartholomew and Horowitz (1991) and the presence of internalizing (depression, anxiety, somatization) and externalizing (aggressive and transgressive behavior) psychopathological symptoms. This study included 164 students from a public university in Cusco aged between 18 and 25 years (M = 20.51, SD = 2.07), who were evaluated with the Relationship Questionnaire (RQ, Bartholomew and Horowitz, 1991), and the Adult Self Report (ASR, Achenbach & Rescorla, 2003). Significant direct relationships were found between the preoccupied and fearful attachment styles and the presence of internalizing and externalizing symptomatology. On the other hand, it was found that the anxiety dimension correlated positively with internalizing and externalizing symptomatology; while the avoidance dimension correlated only with the presence of anxious symptoms. The correlation indexes agree, in their majority, with what was found in previous investigations.

Full textIntroducción: Los sesgos cognitivos son clave en la formación y mantenimiento de los delirios en la psicosis. El Cognitive Biases Questionnaire for Psychosis (CBQp) es un cuestionario que evalúa cinco tipos de sesgos cognitivos en la psicosis. El objetivo de este trabajo es validar la versión española del CBQp, y estudiar la relación de dichos sesgos con la sintomatología psicótica, el insight y la neurocognición. Material y método: La versión española autorizada del CBQp fue obtenida mediante traducción-retrotraducción. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 171 sujetos con diagnósticos de psicosis. Un análisis factorial confirmatorio (AFC) testó tres modelos alternativos del constructo. Se llevaron a cabo comparaciones entre pacientes con psicosis y un grupo control (N = 30) en relación a las subescalas del CBQp. La asociación entre los sesgos del CBQp, el insight clínico (SUMD) y cognitivo (BCIS), la sintomatología psicótica (PANSS y PDI) y la batería neurocognitiva MATRICS fue estudiada mediante correlación, diferencia de medias y regresiones lineales. Resultados: En el AFC, el CFI mostró valores entre 0.94 y 0.95 para los modelos de 1, 2 y 5 factores, con valores de RMSEA de 0.031 y 0.029. La fiabilidad del CBQp fue de 0.87. Los sujetos con psicosis puntuaron significativamente más alto en todos los sesgos cognitivos, a excepción de Catastrofismo y Salto a conclusiones, en comparación con el grupo control. Se obtuvieron asociaciones entre los sesgos cognitivos y las escalas de auto-certeza e insight cognitivo de la BCIS, las escalas de malestar, preocupación, convicción y total del PDI, así como con la sintomatología positiva evaluada mediante la PANSS. El CBQp se relacionó con el rendimiento cognitivo general evaluado mediante la MATRICS, y más concretamente con Velocidad de procesamiento, Solución de problemas y Cognición social. Conclusiones: La versión española del CBQp ha mostrado una adecuada fiabilidad y validez. Un modelo de 1 factor podría ser más adecuado para explicar el constructo de la escala, sugiriendo que el CBQp evalúa un sesgo de pensamiento general. Los sesgos evaluados por el CBQp implicarían mayor presencia de delirios, malestar, convicción y preocupación respecto a éstos, mayor sintomatología positiva, así como un peor insight cognitivo y peor rendimiento neurocognitivo general.
Introduction: Cognitive biases are key factors in the development and maintenance of delusions in psychosis. The Cognitive Biases Questionnaire for Psychosis (CBQp) evaluates five types of cognitive biases that are relevant in psychosis. The aim of this study is to validate the Spanish version of the CBQp, and to study the relationship between these biases and psychotic symptoms, insight and neurocognition. Materials and methods: The Spanish authorized version of the CBQp was obtained by a translation and back-translation procedure. A sample of 171 patients with different diagnoses of psychosis was included. A confirmatory factorial analysis (CFA) tested three different models of the construct. Comparisons of CBQp scales were analysed between patients with psychosis and a control group (N = 30). Associations between the CBQp biases, clinical and cognitive insight (SUMD and BCIS), symptoms (PANSS and PDI) and neurocognition (MATRICS), were studied by correlation and means differences and linear regressions. Results: CFA showed CFI values of 0.94 and 0.95 for the models with 1, 2 and 5 factors, with RMSEA values of 0.031 and 0.029. The reliability of the CBQp was 0.87. When compared with the group of healthy subjects, patients with psychosis scored significantly higher in all cognitive biases, except in Catastrophising (Cat) and Jumping to conclusions (JTC). Associations between cognitive biases and the self-certainty and the total cognitive insight scale of the BCIS were found. In the same way, associations between conviction, distress, preoccupation and total scales of the PDI and cognitive biases were found. The CBQp was also related with positive symptoms evaluated with the PANSS, and with general cognitive performance, specifically with Processing speed, Problem solving and Social cognition. Conclusions: The Spanish version of the CBQp shows high reliability and adequate internal consistency. A one-factor model might be more appropriate for explaining the construct of the scale, suggesting that the CBQp evaluates a general thinking bias rather than different cognitive errors. Cognitive biases involved a greater frequency of delusions, distress, conviction, and preoccupation, and more positive symptoms, as well as worse cognitive insight and worse global neurocognitive performance.

Full textABSTRACT: This research has as main objective to identify the relationship between clinical symptoms and coping styles in a group of 46 adolescents between 13 and 17 years old attending to a Mental Health hospital in Lima. The instruments used were the Frydenberg and Lewis (1997) Coping Scale for adolescents (ACS) and the Derogatis (1994) Symptom Checklist SCL 90-R. We found significant correlations between clinical symptoms and coping styles. Depression dimension shows a strong correlation with non-productive coping style and strategies that are part of this group. Solve the problem style and some of the strategies that compose it inversely correlate with depression and anxiety, which also happens to strategies focused on seeking support from others. From the results is constructed a discussion about the implications for the theory and the objectives of this proyect, relationship with other studies and the impact on further research.

Full textINTRODUCCIÓ: La intolerància a la histamina (IH) és una malaltia poc estudiada, particularment en pacients pediàtrics. El present treball representa la sèrie més àmplia de pacients pediàtrics amb IH i l'únic que realitza un estudi nutricional dels pacients. La IH es produeix per una alteració en la capacitat de catabolizar la histamina ingerida amb els aliments, causada per una activitat reduïda de l'enzim diaminooxidasa (DAO). El consegüent acúmul histamínic pot causar cefalea, hipotensió o hipertensió, prurito i exantema, sibilancias i rinorrea, i diarrea, vòmits i abdominalgia. El diagnòstic se sospita per la presència de simptomatologia típica i ho recolzarà la determinació de l'activitat DAO plasmàtica. El tractament consisteix a realitzar una dieta amb aliments baixos en histamina. La naturalesa diversa dels símptomes de la IH determina que aquesta malaltia sigui freqüentment subestimada, o els símptomes malinterpretats. Un millor coneixement del quadre clínic, els símptomes, les eines diagnòstiques, així com la resposta al tractament poden ajudar a un diagnòstic i tractament precoç. OBJECTIUS: Els objectius principals d'aquest treball són millorar el coneixement de la patologia de la IH amb simptomatologia digestiva i en edat pediàtrica, permetre un diagnòstic i tractament precoç i valorar la resposta al tractament. Així mateix pretén analitzar l'impacte d'aquesta malaltia i la dieta baixa en histamina prescrita sobre l'estat nutricional del pacient. METODOLOGIA: S'han analitzat de manera retrospectiva, prospectiva i observacional les històries clíniques dels pacients menors de 15 anys diagnosticats d'IH des de setembre de 2010 a maig de 2014 remesos a la consulta de gastroenterología pediàtrica de l'Hospital Universitari Són Espases per simptomatologia digestiva crònica. RESULTATS: Es van incloure 67 pacients amb diagnòstic d'IH. La mitjana d'edat a l'inici dels símptomes va ser de 6 anys i 5 mesos. La mitjana d'edat al diagnòstic va ser de 8 anys i 2 mesos. L'interval mitjà entre l'inici dels símptomes i el diagnòstic va ser de 22 mesos. Aquest interval, comparant els primers 15 casos diagnosticats amb els 15 últims casos, es va reduir en 6 mesos gràcies a un millor coneixement de la malaltia. El símptoma dominant va ser el dolor abdominal inespecífic (70,1%). Els símptomes predominants van ser el dolor abdominal (89,6%) i vòmits intermitents (49,2%). El símptoma extradigestivo més freqüent va ser la cefalea (50,7%). En 60 dels 67 casos, l'activitat DAO va ser inferior a 10kU/L (sent normal a partir de 10kU/L). El valor mitjà va ser de 7,3kU/L. El tractament es va basar en una dieta baixa en aliments amb histamina. Els 67 casos van realitzar la dieta amb desaparició de la simptomatologia. En 64 pacients es va realitzar un estudi antropomètric previ a l'inici de la dieta i en 61 casos també es va completar l'estudi nutricional al mes de portar la dieta baixa en histamina. La mitjana de la desviació standard o puntuació Z de pes, talla, IMC, i índexs nutricionals abans d'iniciar la dieta estaven en valors de normalitat segons estàndards de referència. Després d'un mes amb dieta baixa en histamina no es van observar diferències significatives. CONCLUSIONS: La IH és un quadre clínic subestimado. L'interval entre l'inici de símptomes i el diagnòstic és generalment molt perllongat, encara que podria escurçar-se amb un millor coneixement dels símptomes i eines diagnòstiques. Els símptomes predominants són el dolor abdominal inespecífic i la cefalea. La determinació de l'activitat DAO plasmàtica pot ajudar al diagnòstic, encara que la presència de valors normals no necessàriament l'exclou. El quadre clínic digestiu no produeix una malnutrició franca però es pot associar a risc de desnutrició. El tractament dietètic és efectiu i no produeix malnutrició.
INTRODUCTION: Histamine intolerance (HIT) is a poorly studied condition, particularly in paediatric patients. This work presents the largest series of paediatric HIT patients and is the only one to carry out a nutritional study of patients. HIT is caused by an impaired ability to catabolise histamine ingested with food, caused by reduced activity of the enzyme diamine oxidase (DAO). The resulting histamine accumulation can cause headaches, hypotension or hypertension, pruritus and exanthem, sibilant rhonchi, rhinorrhea, diarrhoea, vomiting and abdominal pain. The presence of typical symptoms may indicate the condition, the diagnosis of which is confirmed by determining plasma DAO activity. The treatment involves following a low-histamine diet. The diverse nature of the symptoms means HIT is often overlooked and the symptoms misinterpreted. A better understanding of the clinical profile, symptoms, diagnostic tools and treatment response can aid early diagnosis and treatment. OBJECTIVES: The main objectives of this work are to gain greater knowledge of HIT presenting gastrointestinal symptoms in paediatric patients, to allow early diagnosis and treatment and to assess the response to treatment. It also aims to analyse the impact of the disease and how the prescribed low-histamine diet affects the nutritional state of the patient. METHODS: We carried out retrospective, prospective and observational analyses of the clinical records of patients under 15 diagnosed with HIT between September 2010 and May 2014 who had been referred to the paediatric gastroenterology unit of the University Hospital Son Espases because of chronic gastrointestinal symptoms. RESULTS: 67 patients diagnosed with HIT were included. The mean age at the onset of symptoms was 6 years and 5 months. The mean age at diagnosis was 8 years and 2 months. The mean interval between the onset of symptoms and diagnosis was 22 months. This interval, comparing the first 15 cases diagnosed with the last 15 cases, was reduced by six months due to a better understanding of the disease. The dominant symptom was non-specific abdominal pain (70.1%). The predominant symptoms were abdominal pain (89.6%) and intermittent vomiting (49.2%). The most common symptom unrelated to digestion was headaches (50.7%). In 60 of the 67 cases, the DAO activity was below 10 kU/L (standard is above 10 kU/L). The average value was 7.3 kU/L. The basis of the treatment was a low-histamine diet. In the 67 cases, the diet was followed and the symptoms disappeared. In 64 patients an anthropometric study was conducted prior to beginning the diet, and in 61 cases a nutritional study was also carried out one month after beginning the low-histamine diet. The average standard deviation or Z-score for weight-to-height, BMI and nutritional indexes were normal according to standard reference values before starting the diet. After one month on the low-histamine diet no significant differences were observed. CONCLUSIONS: HIT is an underestimated clinical condition. The interval between the onset of symptoms and diagnosis is usually very prolonged, but could be shortened with a better understanding of the symptoms and diagnostic tools. The digestive clinical condition does not produce direct malnutrition but can be associated with it. The predominant symptoms are non-specific abdominal pain and headaches. The determination of plasma DAO activity can help the diagnosis, although the presence of normal values does not necessarily exclude it, creating a risk of malnutrition. Dietary treatment is effective and does not cause malnutrition.

Full textDue to changes in the definition of trauma in the DSM-IV -highlighting the subjective characteristics of trauma-, and the consideration of a life threatening illness as a potential traumatic experience able to trigger PTSD, the psychological reactions to trauma can be understood from the perspective of acute and posttraumatic stress disorder. Moreover, a number of studies have tried to identify a profile of predictive variables of posttraumatic stress sympthomatology in cancer patients. The main objective in this work is to evaluate the presence and evolution of traumatic stress sympthomatology (ASD and PTSD) along the process of diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer, and to identify risk factors that can contribute to the emergence of this type of symthoms. In this study we evaluated longitudinally traumatic symthomatology in 175 women with breast cancert -stages I to III- along the different phases of the illness process: uncertainty, surgery, diagnostic confirmation, treatment, end of treatment and follow-up. The main results of this work showed that acute and posttraumatic stress responses are common in breast cancer patients. The first stages of the illness process are the most stressful situation that provokes major psychological impact in women evaluated in this research. ASD prevalence rates fell from 17% in uncertainty phase to 8% at the end of treatment. PTSD prevalence remained relatively constant through treatment phase (27.4%), end of treatment (24%) and follow-up (22.9%). Moreover, psychological risk profile of developing PTSD characterizes by high levels of ASD sympthomatology in uncertainty phase, by unexpression of negative emotions and asertive or dominant behaviors, and by a trend to show dissociative experiences as a stable pattern.Different analysis showed that acute stress sympthomatology is the stronger simple predictor of PTSD sympthoms in this study. Finally, we found a cut-off point in the questionnaire used to evaluate ASD (SASRQ), that allowed us to identify more easily those women with elevated ASD sympthoms, and able to predict in a precise form subsequent PTSD sympthomatolgy. The results of this work are useful in order to implement screening protocols and psychotherapeutic interventions for prevention of PTSD in breast cancer patients.

Full textDuring the last years the study of stressful life events (SLE) has generated great interest in the field of postnatal psychiatric disorders. Part of this interest is related to the recognition of certain biological, psychosocial and environmental factors that interact with each other and could be associated with high vulnerability to stress and also with the risk of Postpartum Depression (PPD) or other postnatal psychopathologies. From the inclusion of samples from developing countries with specific socio-demographic, educational and health characteristics, it has been possible to observe prevalence rates of DPP and other mental disorders far superior to those prevalence rates published in samples of developed countries. Likewise, it has also recognized the presence of new risk factors that hardly occur in developed populations. However, there is little evidence on Perinatal Psychopathology in populations of developing countries. So, this research studies the role of some remote and recent SLE on the development of depressive and post-traumatic symptoms in postpartum, in a sample of Mexican women who gave birth in a city with high rates of community violence due to “Military Mexican Drug War”. In order to fulfill the main goal, two prospective studies were conducted, which evaluated 234 women during the first 24 hours postpartum and were invited to participate in an 8-12 weeks follow-up study (n = 148). Each study had its own design, methodology, results and conclusions. In the first study, prevalence rates of depressive symptoms were determined, remote and recent SLE were evaluated simultaneously, and it also analyzed their association with postnatal depressive symptoms in both periods. The results of this study reported prevalence rates above 45% in both periods and determined that community violence (OR: 4.04, 95% CI: 1.88 to 8.64; OR: 2.29, 95% CI: 0.97 to 5.37, respectively) and intimate partner violence (OR: 3.00, 95% CI: 1.34-6.37; OR: 2.46, 95% CI: 0.91 to 6. 64, respectively) were the SLE most associated with depressive symptoms at the 8-12 weeks postpartum. The second study assessed the prevalence of post-traumatic symptoms, forms of community violence experienced during the perinatal period as well as its subjective impact and its association with the emergence of post-traumatic symptoms during the first 8-12 weeks postpartum. Almost 50% had post-traumatic symptoms at 24 hours and about 23% at 8-12 weeks postpartum. The murder of someone close during pregnancy was associated with the severity of posttraumatic symptoms at early postpartum period (β: 6.89, 95% CI: 1.22 to 12.56) and its subscales (Re-experiencing: β: 6.62 95% CI: 5.05 to 7.73; avoidance: β: 0.72, 95% CI: -1.70 to 3.13, and increased arousal: β: 1.85, 95% CI: 0.28 to 3.57). The murder of a family member after childbirth was the violent event that increased avoidance symptoms at 8-12 weeks postpartum (β: 2.16, 95% CI: 0.37 to 10.89). These events obtained the greatest scores of subjective impact. It concludes that community and intimate partner violence are the SLF most related to postpartum depressive symptoms. Community violence forms more associated with post-traumatic symptoms in postpartum were the murder of someone close and/or relatives, which are characterized by their high subjective impact. This research is innovative because it provides prevalence rates of depressive symptoms and posttraumatic symptoms and their associated factors, in a sample of women with very specific characteristics that had not previously been studied due of their social complexity. This study adds to the small studies on risk factor for Perinatal Psychopathology in developing countries.
