The Role of A Beautiful Appearance in the Redemption of Female Ghosts.

J Craniofac Surg

November 2024

Department of Plastic Surgery, Armed Forces Capital Hospital, Bundang-gu, Seongnam-City, Gyeonggi-do, and Department of Anatomy, College of Medicine, Ewha Womans University, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

The aim of this study is to analyze the role played by the appearance of female ghosts in their redemption. In the literature on ghosts, entries on female ghosts highlight their "beautiful appearance": Arang (Korean), Otsuyu (Japanese), The White Lady (Europe), Nie Xiaoqian (Chinese), and Maria Makiling (Filipino). Ghosts are women who died tragically, leaving behind unfulfilled desires-particularly those related to romantic or societal expectations such as marriage, love, and motherhood.

Mediterranean red coral has long been believed to be imbued with sacred, spiritual and healing power and was given to children across Europe in the form of an amulet, teether or medicine. In early modern England, portraits of children from affluent families and medical receipts provide snapshots of coral usage, a moment in time, which do not adequately reveal the spiritual, therapeutic and affective significance of this material within the context of unique family circumstances and a multitude of perceived threats to children's health. Focusing on five case studies, this article delves into the lived experience of families who deemed coral objects an essential childhood accessory in the period from 1590 to 1775.

Article Synopsis
  • * Statistically significant differential item functioning (DIF) was found for most questionnaire items, but this had minimal impact on total scores.
  • * Researchers and clinicians can choose the administration method based on what works best for patients, considering preferences, feasibility, or cost, as score differences were negligible.

Article Synopsis
  • The study compares the effectiveness of two screening tools for major depression: the seven-item Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale Depression subscale (HADS-D) and the total score of the 14-item version (HADS-T), which includes anxiety items and takes longer to complete.
  • An analysis of data from 20,700 participants revealed that both HADS-D and HADS-T had similar sensitivity and specificity for detecting major depression, with optimal cutoffs being ≥7 for HADS-D and ≥15 for HADS-T.
  • Overall, while both tools are accurate, the shorter HADS-D is preferred in most clinical settings due to its simplicity and time efficiency.
