: Although post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) onset-persistence is thought to vary significantly by trauma type, most epidemiological surveys are incapable of assessing this because they evaluate lifetime PTSD only for traumas nominated respondents as their 'worst.'

PTSD symptoms among health workers and public service providers during the COVID-19 outbreak

PLoS ONE, Год журнала: 2020, Номер 15(10), С. e0241032 - e0241032

In the frontline of pandemic stand healthcare workers and public service providers, occupations which have proven to be associated with increased mental health problems during crises. This cross-sectional, survey-based study collected data from 1773 providers throughout Norway between March 31, 2020 April 7, 2020, encompasses a timeframe where all non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs) were held constant. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety depression assessed by Norwegian version PTSD checklist (PCL-5), General Anxiety Disorder –7, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), respectively. specific predictors items. Multiple regression analysis was used for predictor analysis. A total 28.9% sample had clinical or subclinical symptoms PTSD, 21.2% 20.5% above established cut-offs depression. Those working directly in contrast indirectly COVID-19 patients significantly higher symptoms.

How well can post-traumatic stress disorder be predicted from pre-trauma risk factors? An exploratory study in the WHO World Mental Health Surveys

World Psychiatry, Год журнала: 2014, Номер 13(3), С. 265 - 274

Опубликована: Окт. 1, 2014

Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) should be one of the most preventable mental disorders, since many people exposed to traumatic experiences (TEs) could targeted in first response settings immediate aftermath exposure for preventive intervention. However, these interventions are costly and proportion TE-exposed who develop PTSD is small. To cost-effective, risk prediction rules needed target high-risk a TE. Although number studies have been carried out examine prospective predictors among recently TEs, were either small or focused on narrow sample, making it unclear how well can predicted total population TEs. The current report investigates this issue large sample based World Health Organization (WHO)'s Mental Surveys. Retrospective reports obtained associated with 47,466 TE exposures representative community surveys 24 countries. Machine learning methods (random forests, penalized regression, super learner) used model predicting from information about type, socio-demographics, prior histories cumulative DSM-IV disorders. prevalence was 4.0% across exposures. 95.6% cases 10.0% (i.e., 4,747) classified by machine algorithm as having highest risk. divided into 20 ventiles (20 groups equal size) ranked occurred after 56.3% TEs highest-risk ventile, 20.0% second 0.0-1.3% 18 remaining ventiles. These patterns differential quite stable demographic-geographic sub-samples. results demonstrate that sensitive created using data collected at PTSD. validation samples, additional work warranted refine both terms determining minimum required predictor set developing practical administration scoring protocol routine clinical practice.

High anxiety trait: A vulnerable phenotype for stress-induced depression

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, Год журнала: 2018, Номер 87, С. 27 - 37

Опубликована: Фев. 2, 2018

A great deal of research aims to identify risk factors related individual vulnerability develop stress-induced psychopathologies. Here, we summarize evidence that point at anxiety trait as a significant contributor inter-individual differences in stress-vulnerability. Specifically, underscore high key phenotype. Highly anxious individuals show both behavioral alterations and cognitive deficits, along with more reactive physiological stress responses. We discuss efforts progress towards the identification genetic variants polygenetic scores explain stress. then molecular brain can help explaining increased these individuals. Variation such systems act factors, which combination severe/prolonged stressful life events pave way development depression. Our viewpoint implies consideration phenotype support overall aim obtain improved or novel therapeutic approaches.

Accounting for sex differences in PTSD: A multi-variable mediation model

European journal of psychotraumatology, Год журнала: 2015, Номер 6(1)

Опубликована: Янв. 19, 2015

Approximately twice as many females males are diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, little is known about why report more PTSD symptoms than males. Prior studies have generally focused on few potential mediators at a time and often used methods that were not ideally suited to test for mediation effects. research has identified number of individual risk factors may contribute sex differences in severity, although these cannot fully account the increased symptom levels when examined individually.The present study first systematically hypothesis combination pre-, peri-, prevalent can severity.The was quasi-prospective questionnaire survey assessing related variables 73.3% all Danish bank employees exposed robbery during period from April 2010 2011. Participants filled out questionnaires 1 week (T1, N=450) 6 months after (T2, N=368; 61.1% females). Mediation using an analysis designed specifically multiple mediator model.Females reported higher neuroticism, depression, physical anxiety sensitivity, peritraumatic fear, horror, helplessness (the A2 criterion), tonic immobility, panic, dissociation, negative cognitions self world, feeling let down.

The Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) outbreak, which first began in December 2019 China, has since become a global health crisis with vast and devastating consequences for individuals societies. Both earlier research recent findings suggest that infectious disease epidemics pandemics can be highly traumatic experiences some lead to posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) chronic psychological distress. Mental risks associated COVID-19 have yet systematically studied; however, the emerging literature on COVID-19, as well previous studies outbreaks provide insights into probable risk factors correlates of PTSD. In this paper, we brief review these discuss PTSD distress related COVID-19.
