An open-label, 3-period, 6-sequence randomized controlled cross-over trial was conducted with 54 participants in a tertiary care center. After the initial screening for eligibility, the patients were randomized into sequences. Psychomotor, executive, and memory function tests were performed before and 30 minutes after the administration of the intervention on three different days (one intervention each day). Participants showed a significant reduction in reaction time in most of the computerized tests for evaluation of psychomotor function (simple reaction time: one hand: 47.15; 95% CI: 30.99 to 63.32; p <0.001, both hands: 63.90; 95%CI: 46.23 to 81.57; p <0.001|| choice reaction time (79.83; 95%CI: 41.27 to 118.40; p<0.001) and digit picture substitution test (182.12; 95% CI: 116.0 to 248.24; p < 0.001)), executive function and memory with deceptive placebo when compared to nondeceptive placebo. No statistical difference in the paper and pencil tests was observed; however, there was a significant reduction in deceptive placebo over nondeceptive placebo or no intervention groups for trail-making tests for the executive functions. No significant difference was observed for motor functions. A deceptive placebo has a significant effect on psychomotor function compared to a nondeceptive placebo and no treatment; thus there could be differences in placebo responses in clinical trial versus clinical practice or double blind versus open label placebo. The calculation of actual drug effect in a clinical trial needs the development of an algorithm balancing for placebo response.","PeriodicalId":20760,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatria Danubina","volume":"36 3-4","pages":"340-350"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142897150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mental health issues, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have been observed in COVID-19 survivors worldwide. This study aimed to investigate the psychological impact of COVID-19 survivors three months after discharge from hospital and examine associated risk factors. 186 COVID-19 patients were assessed at baseline and three months after hospital discharge using questionnaires for depression, anxiety, insomnia, and post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSD). Medical data, including comorbidities, complications, and psychiatric history, were collected, and analyzed. The study found a prevalence of PTSD, anxiety, and depression symptoms of 14%, 14% and 10.8% respectively three months after hospital discharge. Female gender was a risk factor for PTSD (OR 4.54), depression (OR 3.55) and anxiety (OR 3.06). Patients with psychiatric history were at higher risk of depression (OR 8.46) and anxiety (OR 4.00) but not of PTSD. No association was found with other clinical variables including inflammation markers. The prevalence of psychopathological outcomes in COVID-19 survivors in this study was increased compared to the general population and in line with previous research. Female gender and psychiatric history increased the risk of anxiety and depression. The absence of correlation between inflammation or other clinical variables and psychopathological outcome measures is discussed in comparison with prior research. More research is needed to understand these associations and the long-term effects of COVID-19 on mental health.","PeriodicalId":20760,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatria Danubina","volume":"36 3-4","pages":"379-385"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142897172","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Forgiveness can be an important strategy in restoring the meaning of life and gaining a new meaning. In this context, the present study aims to test the theoretical model evaluating the hypothesis that forgiveness repairs the meaning of life deteriorated after traumas and makes positive contributions. A total of 552 individuals, 369 female (66.8%) and 183 male (33.2%), participated in the study. The sample group of the study was found by using a convenience sampling method via online survey. Introductory information form, The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ-28), Heartland Forgiveness Scale, and the Meaning in Life Questionnaire were used as data collection instruments. Means and standard deviations of the variables and the correlation coefficients between the variables were calculated using descriptive analysis and Pearson correlation. The hypothesized model was tested by using structural equation modelling. In the model, childhood traumas have a negative and significant direct effect on forgiveness (β:-.362) and meaning in life (β:-.256). Forgiveness has a positive and significant effect on meaning in life (β:.715). Also, the mediating (indirect) effect of forgiveness in the relationship between childhood mental traumas and meaning in life was statistically significant (β:-.259). Structural equation modeling showed that forgiveness was the mediating variable affecting changing meaning in life.","PeriodicalId":20760,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatria Danubina","volume":"36 3-4","pages":"351-358"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142897148","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These theories were compared to a more recent theory using concepts from a fast growing form of psychotherapy called schema therapy. The empirical basis of the model from schema therapy was provided using Eastern and Western samples. Points of overlapp with the other models and schema therapy were discussed. The model of needs from schema therapy was based on work conducted by principal author in 2020 using samples from Eastern (Singapore n=628; Kuala Lumpur, n=229), and Western countries (United States, n=214). Four separate categories consisting of the 14 Early Adaptive Schemas (positive schemas) were identified. Each group or positive schema domain represents a core emotional need that was adequately met, and these four were used as the basis for human psychological need from the vantage point of schema therapy. All models of human needs were examined and compared with one another with special focus on constructs that had overlapped. Some models did not begin with infancy. However, there were definite points of convergence showing support for basic concepts of human psychological needs that were theorized over the last few decades, and its congruence with the model from schema therapy.","PeriodicalId":20760,"journal":{"name":"Psychiatria Danubina","volume":"36 3-4","pages":"300-309"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142897149","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
