Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated the quality of life (QoL) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF) using the SF-36 Health Status Survey, comparing 97 patients with AF to a control group of 99 patients without AF.
- While initial QoL scores showed no significant differences between groups, follow-ups at 6 and 12 months revealed notable declines in QoL for those with AF, especially in physical and mental health aspects.
- Patients with paroxysmal AF who adhered well to oral anticoagulant therapy reported better physical activity and social functioning, highlighting the importance of treatment compliance in managing QoL.
Article Synopsis
- A study evaluated the quality of life (QOL) of 634 patients with frequent extrasystolic arrhythmia using the SF-36 Health Status Survey, comparing them to a control group of 106 patients with fewer episodes.
- Patients were divided into two subgroups based on the timing of their extrasystoles: "early" (experienced before peak blood flow) and "late" (after peak).
- Results showed that the "early" subgroup had significantly lower physical and mental health scores compared to the control group, indicating that frequent "early" extrasystoles may predict poorer quality of life in patients with heart issues.
Background: To analyze the results of domestic and foreign studies of the comorbidity of anxiety-depressive disorders and discogenic back pain in adult patients.

Background: The prevalence of depressive disorders in the general population increased significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between history of anxiety and depressive disorders and COVID-19 outcome, hospitalization and severity of anxiety and depression, and whether such relationships are explicable by direct impact of the disease.
Subjects And Methods: We conducted a questionnaire survey among 98 inpatients in the Department of Infectious Diseases of the Clinics of Samara State Medical University.
Article Synopsis
- * Researchers focused on modifiable risk factors, finding that habits like excessive internet use (doom-scrolling), disrupted sleep patterns, and changes to daily routines were linked to increased anxiety scores.
- * The findings suggest that by managing internet consumption, regulating sleep, and maintaining regular daily activities, individuals may reduce their risk of developing anxiety disorders during prolonged stress, such as that caused by the pandemic.
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has had significant impacts on the child and adolescent population, with long-term consequences for physical health, socio-psychological well-being, and cognitive development, which require further investigation. We herein describe a study design protocol for recognizing neuropsychiatric complications associated with pediatric COVID-19, and for developing effective prevention and treatment strategies grounded on the evidence-based findings.
Methods: The study includes two cohorts, each with 163 participants, aged from 7 to 18 years old, and matched by gender.
Background: The stigmatization by healthcare professionals (HP) of patients suffering from mental disorders is an important problem that interferes with the delivery of medical assistance. Social distancing by HP is an integral part of stigmatization, which differs between various mental disorders, as well as between psychiatrists (PSY) versus nonpsychiatrist healthcare professionals (NPHP).
Subjects And Methods: The study included 141 HP: PSY (n=20; 36.
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially contributed to increased anxiety rates among the general population worldwide. Pandemic-related health anxiety and worries about getting COVID-19 can lead to generalized anxiety and anxiety somatization, which, together with insalubrious daily life habits, are risk factors of worsening somatic health in people with SARS-Cov-2 infection.
Subjects And Methods: The current study is a part of the COMET-G project (40 countries, n=55589; approved by the Ethics Committee of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki), which represents an intermediate analysis of data collected anonymously via online links from a national sample of the Russian general population (n=9936, 31.
Background: Our previous research demonstrated that mild depression (MD) is characterized by patterns of atypical language use such as inverted word order, greater repetition, increased use of reflexive/personal (e.g. myself) or negative/ indefinite (e.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFObjectives: Deviations from typical word use have been previously reported in clinical depression, but language patterns of mild depression (MD), as distinct from normal sadness (NS) and euthymic state, are unknown. In this study, we aimed to apply the linguistic approach as an additional diagnostic key for understanding clinical variability along the continuum of affective states.
Methods: We studied 402 written reports from 124 Russian-speaking patients and 77 healthy controls (HC), including 35 cases of NS, using hand-coding procedures.
