The number of refugees and displaced people who have been forced to migrate due to war, mass violence and political instability has reached unprecedented levels.
The objective of this study was to assess the degree of depression, resilience and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in asylum-seeker war refugees, temporally stationed in Larisa, Central Greece, through self-administered questionnaire.
A cross-sectional study carried out with asylum-seeker war refugees residing in Larisa at a number of apartments rented and ran by the UNHCR and the municipality of Larisa. For the data collection PHQ-9 questionnaire, CD-RISC questionnaire and Harvard Trauma questionnaire (HTQ) were used. Descriptive statistics were applied, as well as Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Simple regression, Pearson's correlation coefficient and one-way Anova was used.
A total of 64 immigrants (40 males and 23 females, 1-mssing value) agreed to participate in the research. The mean age was 35.72 (SD 7.45), 35 respondents were class from their homeland, in a marginal state of collapse. The most important event-hope that sustains its moderate resilience is the grant of asylum and the hope of arrival in the country of destination.
Infant sleep difficulties are often a challenge for new parents and may be related to maternal mood.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the presence of reported infant sleep difficulties at the 6
week and at the 12
month postpartum is associated with maternal psychological well-being and the presence of a mental health disorder in the perinatal period or with other perinatal factors.
It is a retrospective longitudinal study, examining a sample of 622 women who attended a 12-month innovative psychosocial intervention. Data were obtained through the EPDS and PHQ-9 psychometric tools, and the completion of a health history. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/cl316243.html Statistical analyses included Spearman rank correlation coefficients and C

Reported infant sleep difficulties at the 6
week postpartum were associated with a) increased maternal scores on psychometric tools (EPDS and PHQ-9) during pregnancy and at the 6
week postpartum, b) the presence of pathological maternal mental health symptoms in the perinatal period (

Elderly population is growing fast in the western world due to a reduction in birth rates and a marked increase in life expectancy with multiple co-morbidity that warrants greater attention by health care workers.
The purpose of the study is to investigate the levels of physical and mental health of elderly people living in Central Greece.
A cross-sectional study design was adopted with self completed questionnaires. Data collected, included socio-demographic and general health information using the Greek version of General Health Questionnaire 28. Kolmogorov-Smirnov test and regularity diagrams were employed.
The sample included 230 elderly people with an average age of 73.1 years, women (53.5%), married (75.7%), with children (100%), primary school graduates (47.8%), residing in a city (72.2%), retired (90.9%), living with a spouse (68.3%), worked previously (96%) and 37.4% with a present monthly income of 301-600€. In the General Health Questionnaire, the internal consistency factor Cronbach's alph urban and rural areas. Therefore as our findings show, special care and priority should be granted to those who are single or widowed or divorced as they seem to be at greatest risk for overall declining mental health.
Various demographic as well as bio-psycho-social factors affecting health and particularly mental health are distributed unevenly between older men and women and between older people living in urban and rural areas. Therefore as our findings show, special care and priority should be granted to those who are single or widowed or divorced as they seem to be at greatest risk for overall declining mental health.
Patient education can be defined as the process of improving knowledge and skills in order to influence the attitudes and behaviour required to maintain or improve health or health style.
Education of the patients living with heart disease from ambulatory nurse education for the effectiveness on awareness on life style.
A quasi experimental study was conducted in Specialist Cardiology Ambulance D&D in Pristina among 100 patients. A complete clinical and laboratory measurements before and after the process of patient education (at 30, 60 and 90 days) were performed. The clinical outcome was nutrition, body mass index, blood pressure, lipid, diabetic profile and physical activity. The pre-post tested (validity, reliability and pilot testing) structured questionnaire were used for data collection.
All patients underwent education sessions by an experienced education nurse on 30, 60 and 90 days. At 90 days follow up, the BMI was decreased Pre-education (29.01±5.46), Post-education (27.72±4.71), t- 5.999 p<0.0001, glycaemic level Pre-education (6.50±2.15) and Post-education (6.02±1.63), t- 4.157, p<0.0001 was decreased, HbA1c in Pre-education (6.23±2.06) and Post-education (5.72±1.44) t- 4.036 p<0.0001 respectively. The lipid profile was also changed at the 90 days follow-up cholesterol, triglyceride and LDL-C were decreased (p<0.0001 for all), whereas HDL-C was increased (p<0.0001), by educational program at 90 days follow up. Whereas, blood pressure remains unchanged.
Heart disease management programme where patient's education is an important component, have been shown to be effective in increasing knowledge, self-care and self-management patients living with heart disease.

The corona virus is transmitted in three ways by direct contact with an infected person, by droplets, and by air. Transmission control according to official guidelines can be prevented by keeping a distance, wearing a mask and washing hands. Sharing a space with several members of the immediate or extended family increases the risk of transmission in all three ways. In Traditional Bosnian families two or three generations live in one household. The family doctor is informed with living conditions of the residents and has the opportunity to monitor the rate of secondary transmission from the index case, and then recommend additional preventative and treatment measures.
The aim of the study was to determine the first occurrence of the symptoms and to monitor possible intrafamilial transmission of the disease through clinical examinations and microbiological-serological tests.
The study was conducted in a family medicine clinic in the region of northeastern Bosnia and Herzegovina from March to December 2020.
