ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation between daytime sleepiness and anxiety,depression in patients with obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS).Methods A total of 117 patients with sleep -snoring from September 2015 to September 2017 who admitted to the Department of Respiratory Medicine of Shengjing Hospital Affiliated to China Medical University were collected for general information.ESS,SDS,SAS questionnaire and polysomnography were detected.The differences between simple snoring and OSAHS group were compared,and the correlation between Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS),Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS),Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS) score was analyzed.Results The scores of ESS,SDS and SAS in the OSAHS group were (16.24 ± 3.82) points,(46.27 ± 9.01) points,(48.21 ± 9.44) points,respectively,which were higher than those in the simple snoring group [(6.0 ± 2.58) points,(35.50 ± 18.40) points,(36.55 ± 17.97) points] (t =-14.425,-2.521,-2.780,all P ＜ 0.05).There was a correlation between SDS or SAS score and ESS score in OSAHS group(r=0.419,0.313,all P ＜0.05).Conclusion The sleepiness and anxiety,depression in OSAHS patients is more severe than simple snoring;ESS score in OSAHS patients can reflect the severity of the disease,the degree of sleepiness in patients with OSAHS is related to depression and anxiety.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effect of Valpar occupational assessment training system on cognitive dysfunction in schizophrenia. Methods Sixty patients with schizophrenia were randomly assigned into Valpar therapy group ( experiment group, n=30) and traditional rehabilitation therapy group ( control group, n=30) according to the order number. The duration of the treatment was six weeks. The brief assess?ment of cognition in schizophrenia ( BACS) and Wisconsin card sorting test ( WCST) were conducted as pre?and post?treatment assessment. Results There were significant differences between scores of BASC in pre?and post?treatment assessment in experiment group. More specifically, the BASC scores in symbol coding (37.50±6.50, t=-4.60, P<0.01),token movement(60.80±8.72, t=-2.54, P=0.017),verbal memory (44.40±11.29, t=-2.19, P=0.037)),and word fluency(14.23±4.35, t=-3.39, P=0.002) were signifi?cantly different when comparing pre?and post?treatment assessment outcomes. In control group,the only sig?nificant difference was found in word fluency (14.23±4.35, t=-3.39, P=0.002).In addition,response errors (57.80±10.35, t=-3.06, P=0.005) and repeat errors (34.67±6.96, t=3.41, P=0.002) in WCST in exper?iment group were significantly different in pre?and post?treatment assessment while only repeat errors (34.30 ±7.01, t=4.36, P=0.000) was different in control group. It was further discovered that scores in in symbol cod?ing( t=2.010, P=0.048),token movement ( t=2.124, P=0.038),response errors ( t=2.413, P=0.020) and repeat errors( t=2.009, P=0.047) in WCST were different between two groups. Conclusion Valpar professional evaluation train?ing system can significantly improve the cognitive function of people with schizophrenia.
