Obesity surgery is the therapy of choice for severely obese patients. The results are promising, but at the same time obesity surgery represents a physical and psychological challenge for patients and care givers. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nu7441.html In order to give psychosocial support adequately, more knowledge of effects of psychological profiles is required. Research is often deficit and symptom oriented. Psychological resources (competences) of individuals are often neglected. However, after surgery patients have to cope with the altered anatomic condition and therefore psychological resources are essential for a successful development and my influence also the surgical outcome. The interplay of eating behavior, depression, and psychological resources and their influence on weight are yet undetermined.
A cross-sectional study in consecutive obesity surgery candidates was performed. One hundred twenty-seven participants were included (90 female, 37 male; mean BMI 49.85 kg/m²; range 36.7-84.2 kg/m²). After conducting semi-structured clinis supposed to lead to an even higher weight loss.
Antidepressant treatment is one of the most effective ways of relieving or curing depressive symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). Although many studies have explored the efficacy, tolerability, adverse reactions, and functional mechanism of the disease, there has been no systematic evaluation of the relevant results in this field.
This paper aims to analyze the theme trends and knowledge structure of drug therapy studies on MDD since the 21
century by employing bibliometric analysis.
Literature published in PubMed and related to drug therapy studies on MDD were retrieved between 2001 and 2018 in 6-year increments. After extracting major Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) terms/MeSH subheadings, bi-clustering analysis, social network analysis, and strategic diagrams were employed to complete bibliometric analysis.
Overall, 1,577, 2,680, 2,848 relevant research articles were retrieved for the periods during 2001-2006, 2007-2012, and 2013-2018, respectively. In line with strategic diand emerging hotspots can be helpful for researchers to clarify the current status of their respective fields and future trends, and to generate novel ideas that may launch new research directions.

Studies have shown that patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) exhibit elevated dysfunctional attitudes (DAs). However, it remains controversial whether the DAs are state-dependent or trait-like features of MDD.
This study recruited 172 patients and 159 healthy controls (HCs) at baseline. DAs were respectively assessed by the 24-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD
) and the Chinese version of Dysfunctional Attitude Scale form A (C-DAS-A). After baseline, patients received a 6-month antidepressant treatment. General linear models were used to analyze the differences in the C-DAS-A total and factor scores between the acute and remitted MDD groups and the HC group. Paired t tests were used to assess the changes of C-DAS-A total and factor scores in the remitted MDD group before and after treatment.
At baseline, patients with MDD showed significantly higher scores in C-DAS-A and its subscales than HCs (all
< 0.05). After treatment, the C-DAS-A total and factor scores decreased significantly in the remitted MDD group (all P < 0.05). However, the C-DAS-A total (
= 0.005) and five factors' scores (vulnerability, attraction and repulsion, perfectionism, compulsion, and dependence) remained elevated in the remitted MDD group as compared with HCs (all P < 0.05). There were moderate correlations between the baseline and remission phase C-DAS-A total and five factors' scores (all P < 0.05).
DAs show a mixture of state-dependent and trait-like characteristics in MDD with partial improvement in the remission phase. Special attention should be paid to the residual DAs in the remitted MDD for the prevention of relapse.

During the Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia, about a quarter of the population died, resulting in many individuals losing close relatives. Still today, many individuals are suffering from the psychological consequences of these losses, which might also affect the process of reconciliation within the Cambodian society. The aim of this paper is therefore to investigate the association between symptoms of prolonged grief and attitudes toward reconciliation.
A sample of 775 survivors of the Khmer Rouge regime who lost relatives during the conflict were interviewed about their losses and traumatic events, prolonged grief (PG; Complicated Grief Assessment Self-Report, CGA-SR), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD Checklist - Civilian Version) and attitudes toward reconciliation (Readiness to Reconcile Inventory, RRI).
A higher symptom severity of PG was significantly associated with readiness to reconcile even when controlling for other relevant variables (β = -0.22; p <.001). Persons who met caseness criteria for PG were significantly less ready to reconcile, t(773) = 5.47, p <.001, than persons who did not meet caseness for PG.
PG seems to be a relevant mental health correlate of attitudes toward reconciliation. The results of the current study underline the importance of also considering PG with regard to the reconciliation process in Cambodia and possibly also in other post-conflict regions.
