ABSTRACT

Psoríase é uma dermatose de caráter inflamatório ligado a diversas composições do ser, sendo estas a genética, o sistema imune, o ambiente e o estado mental do paciente, apresentando evidências de ser um quadro clínico multifacetado. A composição da medicina psicossomática empenha-se na relação mental e emocional e do corpo, sendo importante mostrar a relação desta com a psoríase. Por isso, busca-se avaliar as evidências disponíveis na literatura sobre a relação entre a psoríase e os aspectos psicossomáticos. Foi realizado uma a revisão de literatura, por meio de seleção de artigos das base de dados Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (PubMed/Medline), biblioteca virtual em saúde Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciElo), UpToDate e Google acadêmico. A busca por artigos científicos resultou em 20 artigos selecionados. Foi possível concluir, que há estudos fundamentados correlacionando a medicina psicossomática e a psoríase, além de que diversos fatores que afetam a homeostase corporal, provocam alterações nervosas, e consequentemente afetam as células da pele. Além disso, foi encontrado evidências que a estigmatização que os pacientes sofrem influenciam no aumento da gravidade da doença, sendo necessário a realização de um tratamento psico cognitivo-comportamental juntamente com o tratamento dos sinais e sintomas gerais da doença. Desta forma, o presente trabalho pôde olhar para a patologia com um olhar ampliado relacionado ao aspecto mental e emocional o que promove melhor compreensão e as consequências disto são a maior capacidade de intervenção sobre a psoríase.


Psoriasis is an inflammatory dermatosis linked to several compositions of the being, which are genetics, the immune system, the environment and the patient's mental state, that is, it shows evidence of being a multifaceted clinical picture. Since the composition of psychosomatic medicine is committed to the relationship between the mental, emotional, and body, it is important to show its relationship with psoriasis. Therefore, we sought to evaluate the available evidence in the literature on the relationship between psoriasis and psychosomatic aspects. A literature review was conducted by selecting articles from the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (PubMed/Medline), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciElo), UpToDate and Google Scholar databases. The search for scientific articles resulted in 20 selected articles. It was possible to conclude that there are well-founded studies correlating psychosomatic medicine and psoriasis, and that several factors that affect the body's homeostasis cause nervous alterations, and consequently affect the skin cells. Moreover, it was found evidence that the stigmatization that patients suffer influences the increase of the severity of the disease, being necessary the realization of a psycho cognitive-behavioral treatment along with the treatment of the general signs and symptoms of the disease. Thus, the present work could look at the pathology with a broader view related to the mental and emotional aspect, which promotes better understanding and the consequences of this are a greater ability to intervene on psoriasis.


La psoriasis es una dermatosis inflamatoria vinculada a varias composiciones del ser, que son la genética, el sistema inmunitario, el medio ambiente y el estado mental del paciente, es decir, muestra evidencias de ser un cuadro clínico multifacético. Dado que la composición de la medicina psicosomática está comprometida con la relación entre lo mental, lo emocional y el cuerpo, es importante mostrar su relación con la psoriasis. Por lo tanto, se buscó evaluar la evidencia disponible en la literatura sobre la relación entre la psoriasis y los aspectos psicosomáticos. Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica seleccionando artículos de las bases de datos Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (PubMed/Medline), Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciElo), UpToDate y Google Scholar. La búsqueda de artículos científicos dio como resultado 20 artículos seleccionados. Se pudo concluir que existen estudios bien fundamentados que correlacionan la medicina psicosomática y la psoriasis, y que diversos factores que afectan a la homeostasis del organismo provocan alteraciones nerviosas y, en consecuencia, afectan a las células de la piel. Además, se encontraron evidencias de que la estigmatización que sufren los pacientes influye en el aumento de la gravedad de la enfermedad, siendo necesaria la realización de un tratamiento psico cognitivo- conductual junto con el tratamiento de los signos y síntomas generales de la enfermedad. Así, el presente trabajo pudo contemplar la patología con una visión más amplia relacionada con el aspecto mental y emocional, lo que favorece una mejor comprensión y las consecuencias de ello son una mayor capacidad de intervención sobre la psoriasis.

ABSTRACT

O presente artigo problematiza aspectos afetivos inerentes à relação materno-filial que podem estar associados ao surgimento e estabelecimento de sintomas psicossomáticos de refluxo gastroesofágico no bebê de até 1 ano de idade. Para tanto, apresenta-se estudo de caso de uma díade mãe-bebê auxiliado por entrevista semiestruturada, aplicação das pranchas 1, 2 e 7MF do teste de apercepção temática e observação naturalista. Cada instrumento foi analisado qualitativamente e teve seus resultados integrados e articulados à teoria psicanalítica. Os principais resultados apontaram certa fragilidade egóica e necessidade de apoio social por parte da mãe, compatíveis com o período do puerpério. São discutidas possíveis maneiras de funcionamento do psiquismo materno, por exemplo, quando sobrecarregado com afetos ansiosos, há sobredeterminação de sintomas psicofuncionais no bebê, os quais, por sua vez, causam efeitos no modo como a mãe se posiciona no exercício da maternagem suficientemente boa, marcando um interjogo relacional


This article discusses affective aspects inherent to mother-child relations that may be associated with the onset and establishment of psychosomatic gastroesophageal reflux symptoms in infants up to 1 year old. A case study of a mother-child dyad was performed by conducting semi-structured interviews, applying the 1, 2 and 7MF cards of the Thematic Apperception Test and using naturalistic observation. Instruments were analyzed qualitatively and their results were integrated and linked to psychoanalytic theoretical framework. Results pointed to a certain egoic fragility and the need for social support for the mother compatible with the puerperium. It also discusses possible ways in which the maternal psyche functions. When overloaded with anxious affections, for example, it overdetermines psychofunctional symptoms in the baby which, in turn, affects how the mother positions herself in the exercise of good maternity, marking a relational interplay


Cet article traite des aspects affectifs inhérents aux relations mère-enfant qui peuvent être associés à l'émergence et à l'installation de symptômes psychosomatiques de reflux gastro-œsophagien chez les nourrissons jusqu'à l'âge d'un an. Une étude de cas d'une dyade mère-enfant a été réalisée en menant des entretiens semi-structurés, en appliquant les planches 1, 2 et 7MF du Test d'Aperception Thématique et en utilisant l'observation naturaliste. Les instruments ont été analysés qualitativement et leurs résultats ont été intégrés et reliés au cadre théorique psychanalytique. Les résultats ont mis en évidence une certaine fragilité égoïque et le besoin d'un soutien social pour la mère compatible avec la puerpéralité. L'étude aborde également les modes de fonctionnement possibles de la psyché maternelle. Lorsque celle-ci est surchargée d'affections anxieuses, elle surdétermine des symptômes psychofonctionnels chez le bébé qui, à leur tour, affectent la façon dont la mère se positionne dans l'exercice d'une maternité suffisamment bonne, marquant une interaction relationnelle

ABSTRACT

The treatment idea for chronic urticaria with acupuncture and moxibustion by "mind-body regulation" is explored in reference with "psychosomatic medicine". Chronic urticaria refers to "mind and body comorbidity" because qi and blood dysfunction and emotional abnormality are presented simultaneously in the disease and affected each other. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, the mutual regulation of mind and body should be considered to improve the curative effect. In treatment with acupuncture and moxibustion, through regulating the mind of brain, heart and zang organs, as well as qi movement, the mental activity is adjusted; through harmonizing the defensive qi and the nutrient blood, eliminating wind and stopping itching, the unhealthy conditions of body are treated. The comprehensive therapy of acupuncture is adopted in combination with moxibustion, bloodletting and auricular point therapy, in which, "regulating the mind" goes through the whole process of treatment, and the doctors and patients are well cooperated to ensure the qi-blood harmonization and the mind-body wellness.

ABSTRACT

This paper introduces professor SUN Shen-tian's clinical thoughts and his characteristics of acupuncture techniques for the treatment of depression based on "psychosomatic medicine". Professor SUN, the master of traditional Chinese medicine, believes that depression refers to comorbidity of "heart mind" and "body", resulting from the "body-mind" disharmony, specially dominated by the emotional disorder. This disease is located in the brain, with the injury of mind and closely related to the heart and liver dysfunction. In pathogenesis, the dysfunction of brain mind and the unhealthy conditions of body and mind are involved. The treatment should focus on "regulating the mind, improving the intelligence, co-modulating the abdominal and brain functions and treating the physical and mental disorders". Baihui (GV 20), Ningshen (Extra) and emotional area on the head are selected as the main points to benefit the intelligence and calming down the mind; the abdominal region 1 and region 8 of "Sun's abdominal acupuncture" are used as the main points of the abdomen to regulate the brain functions. The point prescription is modified according to the symptoms and etiologies. The repeated transcranial acupuncture stimulation and electroacupuncture at low frequency (2 Hz) are crucial to the therapeutic effect. Reliving anxious emotions is specially considered before acupuncture, and the mind is protected and deqi is consolidated during acupuncture.

ABSTRACT

The traditional life concept of "body-mind holism" in Chinese medicine has drawn a special attention with the development of modern psychosomatic medicine. The "body-mind holism" is valuable in the guidance for clinical acupuncture practice, but, it is only remained on the theoretical significance by the medical masters in the past dynasties. In the paper, based on the understanding of Huangdi Neijing (Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic), the similarities and differences are compared between the body-mind theory and psychosomatic medicine. In association with clinical observation, from three aspects, i.e. body-mind pathogenesis, acupoint detection and observing the mind, and body-mind treatment, the guidance of "body-mind holism" is explored for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of acupuncture and moxibustion; the referents of "body" and "mind" are clarified in views of disease, diagnosis and treatment; and the treatment strategies of acupuncture and moxibustion are discussed in the perspective of "body-mind holism".

ABSTRACT

This study critically examines the current status of interoception research in modern psychology, taking into account perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), encompassing both foundational studies and clinical applications. The investigation highlights a deep interconnection between psychosomatic theories in TCM, such as the TCM emotions and viscera theory and the view of body-spirit syncretism, and the concept of interoception at the cognitive level. Moreover, philosophical principles, particularly the “Zhi Yi Lun” in TCM, align naturally with the three-dimensional interoception model. Importantly, this comparative analysis emphasizes that Western and Chinese medicine place different emphasis on interoception research with the former focusing on diagnosis and the latter on treatment. These differing approaches complement each other and provide opportunities for cross-fertilization. At the practical level of interoception application, “five-state personality classification” demonstrates promising potential for further clinical application. In addition, TCM has valuable insights for contemporary medical practices in terms of emotional regulation. TCM methods for emotional regulation, known as “Daoyin”, provide important knowledge in this area. One concept developed by TCM for clinical intervention targeting interoception is “Tiao Qi” (regulating qi). This concept is used during diagnosis and treatment in TCM and plays a crucial role in managing interoceptive states. This paper aims to explain the cognitive and applied aspects of interoception in TCM, offering a perspective for future research and clinical application. By integrating modern psychology's psychosomatic medicine model, TCM can enhance its relevance and efficacy in contemporary medical contexts. This integration promotes a balanced relationship between the mind and body. TCM researchers have a responsibility to explore the inherent strengths and practical value of TCM in interoception research, and contribute to the advancement of TCM.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the current status of psychosomatic medical service competence and training needs among general practice resident physicians.Methods:An online questionnaire survey was conducted from August to September 2021, among general practice resident physicians selected by cluster sampling from 4 affiliated hospitals of Tongji University. The questionnaire contained the basic information, the self-assessment and training needs of psychosomatic medical service competence of participants, and psychosomatic medical service requirements of patients in the community.Results:A total of 159 questionnaires were distributed, and 140 were collected (88.1%). The survey showed that 25.7% (36/140) of participants believed that 50% or more patients had physical symptoms accompanied by emotional problems; 29.3% (41/140) thought that 50% or more patients had sleep problems, but 60.0% (84/140) of them failed to provide appropriate treatment. The rate of "core knowledge and concepts of psychosomatic medicine" was 47.5% (665/1 400) and the correct rate of "common psychosomatic diseases" was (64.6±23.4)%. Merely 21.4% (30/140) participants reported satisfaction with the psychosomatic medical service competence; 62.8% (88/140) respondents believed that the coverage rate of the above-mentioned competence training in the current general practice residential training program was less than 50%, and 66.4% (93/140) supported that more psychosomatic training was "necessary". The acceptance rate of online training, workshops, MDT, and clinical practice ranged from 56.4% (79/140) to 63.4% (89/140).Conclusions:The survey indicates that there are large needs for psychosomatic medical services among patients in community, but the competence and confidence of general practice resident physicians to provide the service are significantly insufficient. Therefore, it is suggested to strengthen the training of psychosomatic medical service competence in the general practice residency training program.

ABSTRACT

RESUMEN: Los avances de la medicina moderna nos han permitido la subespecialización de diversas áreas, con gran ganancia en múltiples ámbitos, pero adoleciendo a veces de perder la perspectiva del ser humano completo. La salud como la enfermedad suceden a un sujeto que es más que la suma de sus partes. La psiquiatría, especialmente la de enlace, busca integrar las miradas y superar la "falsa escisión" del ser. Logra hacerlo cuando el síntoma inicia en la psiquis. La medicina psicosomática emerge como oportunidad de hacerlo cuando el síntoma/enfermedad se origina en el cuerpo. Se presenta la historia de una persona, que presenta una enfermedad orgánica muy frecuente en nuestros días, abordando lo convencional y clásico, sumando además la mirada psicosomática. Para ello usa las herramientas de la medicina integrativa, específicamente las de la medicina antroposófica y terapia artística de dicha corriente. El objeto de su presentación es mostrar esta mirada de como enfocar a estos paciente y su acompañamiento terapéutico, que intenta reunificar psique-soma como una forma de sanación del Ser. Este enfoque propone un camino concreto, con una mirada y un lenguaje común, entre diversas especialidades, que permita recuperar el lugar de centro de la identidad del ser humano, como ser sujeto a acompañar en salud y enfermedad. Pienso que esto puede tener beneficios en la morbi- mortalidad de los pacientes.


ABSTRACT The advances of modern medicine have allowed us to subspecialize in various areas, with great gain in multiple areas, but sometimes suffering from losing the perspective of the complete human being. Health and illness happen to a subject who is more than the sum of its parts. Liaison Psychiatry seeks to integrate the looks and overcome the "false split" of being. It manages to do it when the symptom starts in the psyche. Psychosomatic medicine emerges as an opportunity to do so when the symptom / illness originates in the body. I present the story of a pathient, who has a very frequent organic disease in our days, addressing the conventional view, and also adding the psychosomatic perspective. For this we use the tools of integrative medicine, specifically those of anthroposophic medicine and artistic therapy. The purpose of his presentation is to show this sight of how to approach these patients and their therapeutic accompaniment, which tries to reunify psyche-somatism as a form of healing of the Being. This approach proposes a concrete path, with a common sight and language, between various specialties, that allows to recover the place of center of the identity of the human being, as being subject to accompany in health and illness. I think this may have benefits in the morbidity and mortality of patients.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: La psiquiatría de interconsulta y enlace es un área de la psiquiatría clínica cuya función es que psiquiatras lleven a cabo una serie de actividades dentro de un hospital general. En el contexto internacional, el número de unidades de psiquiatría de enlace se ha incrementado significativamente, situación que está repercutiendo en Perú. Sin embargo, este desarrollo es heterogéneo y desconocido, por lo que se requieren reportes de estudios recientes que revelen las características y los detalles de los servicios de atención clínica de estas unidades. Objetivo: Examinar y reportar las características sociodemográficas y clínicas de los pacientes evaluados en la Unidad de Psiquiatría de Enlace del Hospital Nacional Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen (HNGAI) de Lima, Perú, y analizar la naturaleza de los cuadros sintomáticos y sindrómicos presentes. Métodos: Estudio descriptivo y transversal de las interconsultas recibidas por la Unidad de Psiquiatría de Enlace del HNGAI entre mayo y octubre de 2019; se aplicó un análisis factorial de los síntomas. Resultados: En el total de 400 pacientes vistos en interconsulta, la media de edad fue 58 ± 17,09 arios. El 61,5% eran mujeres. La tasa de derivación fue del 2,73%. El servicio con el mayor número de referencias fue Medicina Interna (13,9%). Los trastornos más frecuentes fueron de naturaleza ansiosa (44%); los síntomas más frecuentes fueron ánimo depresivo (45,3%), insomnio (44,5%) y afecto ansioso (41,3%). Con respecto al tratamiento, el más prescrito fue con antidepresivos (44,3%). El análisis factorial exploratorio de los síntomas mostró 3 factores o componentes sindrómicos importantes: delirio, depresión y ansiedad. Conclusiones: El paciente típico de esta muestra es una mujer al final de su quinta década de vida, con enfermedad médica no psiquiátrica y con evidencia de trastornos ansiosos como diagnóstico principal resultante de la interconsulta psiquiátrica.


ABSTRACT Introduction Consultation-liaison psychiatry is a branch of clinical psychiatry that enables psychiatrists to carry out a series of activities within a general hospital. The number of liaison psychiatry units around the world has increased significantly, and Peru is no exception. However, this development is heterogeneous and unknown, so recent study reports are required to reveal the characteristics and details of the clinical care services provided by these units. Aim To describe and report the socio-demographic and clinical characteristics of patients evaluated in the Liaison Psychiatry Unit of the Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen National Hospital in Lima, Peru, and to analyze the symptomatic and syndromic nature of the identified conditions. Methods Cross-sectional descriptive study. Referrals to the Liaison Psychiatry Unit of the Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen National Hospital between May and October 2019 were studied, and a factor analysis of the symptoms was conducted. Results In a total of 400 referrals evaluated, the average age was 58 ± 17.09 years and 61.5% of the patients were women. The rate of psychiatric consultation was 2.73%. Internal medicine (13.9%) was the service that most frequently requested a psychiatric consultation. The disorder most frequently diagnosed was anxiety (44%), and the symptoms most frequently found were depression (45.3%), insomnia (44.5%), and anxiety (41.3%). The most used treatments were antidepressants (44.3%). The exploratory factor analysis of the symptoms showed three syndromic components: delirium, depression, and anxiety. Conclusions: The typical patient of this sample is a woman in her late 50s, suffering from a non-psychiatric medical illness, and with anxiety disorders as the main diagnosis resulting from the psychiatric consultation.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Os estudos sobre as causalidades das patologias e da relação médico/paciente a partir de formulações psicanalíticas receberam duas denominações no Brasil: medicina psicossomática e psicologia médica. O médico e psicanalista Julio de Mello Filho assumiu o protagonismo dessa proposta a partir da doença incapacitante do psiquiatra e psicanalista Danillo Perestrello. A estruturação da concepção teórica do movimento psicossomático e as estratégias institucionais utilizadas para a consolidação desse campo disciplinar no cenário brasileiro são o objeto deste estudo. Por meio de um referencial epistemológico e histórico, conclui-se que a proposta inicial de transformação do modelo médico hegemônico perde força e observa-se um deslocamento da psicologia médica como um campo da psicologia da saúde.


Abstract Studies on the causality of pathologies and the doctor/patient relationship based on psychoanalytic formulations received two denominations in Brazil: psychosomatic medicine and medical psychology. The physician and psychoanalyst Julio de Mello Filho took a leading role in this movement after the psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Danillo Perestrello was incapacitated by illness. This study investigates how the theoretical concepts of the psychosomatic movement were structured and the institutional strategies used to establish this discipline in Brazil. From an epistemological and historical point of view, the initial notion of transforming the hegemonic medical model was seen to lose force, followed by a shift in medical psychology as a field of health psychology.

ABSTRACT

This paper reported a case of psychosomatic medicine-based comprehensive treatment for a patient with gynecological malignant tumor suffering severe left hip pain after surgery and radiotherapy, with the aim of demonstrating the pathophysiological classification of pain arising from pathological damage, and providing references for the clinical study and practice of the psychosomatic multi-dimensional treatment mode for clinical "organic pain". This case suggested that the onset of pain, even in the presence of pathological damage, also involved a combination of pathological damage, somatic manifestations of anxiety and individual cognitive biases.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objectives to assess health-related quality of life and resilience among hemodialyzed patients in the city of Porto, Portugal, before and after the Relaxation, Mental Images and Spirituality psychotherapeutic intervention, and identify factors interfering in these patients' levels of resilience. Method a quasi-experimental study was conducted from November 2018 to April 2019 among 17 patients attending two dialysis centers located in Porto, Portugal. A questionnaire addressing sociodemographic and clinical information was applied together with the Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form, a resilience scale, and a brief psychotherapeutic intervention. Each patient attended three intervention sessions, and the instruments were applied before and after the intervention. The Shapiro-Wilk test was performed to verify the normality of data, while the Student's t-test and Wilcoxon test were performed to compare the means, and linear regression was used to identify resilience-associated factors. Results after the intervention, quality of life perception improved in virtually all the scale's domains, with statistically significant differences in the physical function (p=0.006) and emotional function (p=0.021). The resilience assessment revealed a statistically significant improvement in the post-intervention (p=0.002); linear regression analyses showed that having a religion, other pathologies, or a history of transplant is related to increased resilience levels while taking antidepressants or anti-hypertensive medications negatively affect it. Conclusion the intervention contributed to improving resilience and some domains concerning the patients' quality of life. Thus, it can be implemented among patients undergoing hemodialysis.


RESUMEN Objetivos evaluar la calidad de vida relacionada a la salud y resiliencia de pacientes en hemodiálisis, en la ciudad do Porto, en Portugal, antes y después de la intervención psicoterapéutica: Relajamiento, Imágenes Mentales y Espiritualidad. También, identificar los factores que interfieren en los niveles de resiliencia de estos pacientes. Método estudio casi experimental, realizado en 17 participantes de dos unidades de diálisis de la ciudad de Porto, en Portugal, de noviembre de 2018 a abril de 2019. Fueron utilizados: el cuestionario de caracterización sociodemográfica y clínica, la escala de calidad de vida (Kidney Disease Quality of Life-Short Form), la escala de resiliencia y la intervención psicoterapéutica breve. Cada paciente recibió tres sesiones de intervención, siendo evaluados por los instrumentos arriba listados, antes y después. Fueron utilizadas las pruebas: Shapiro Wilks para verificar la normalidad de los datos, t de Student y de Wilcoxon para comparación de las medias; y, la regresión linear para la identificación de los factores asociados a la resiliencia. Resultados la percepción de la calidad de vida fue mejor en casi todos los dominios de la escala, después de la intervención, con una diferencia estadísticamente significativa en las dimensiones: función física (p=0,006) y función emocional (p=0,021). En la evaluación de la resiliencia, se verificó aumento con significación estadística, en el período después de la intervención (p=0,002). Los análisis de regresión linear revelaron que la religión, otras patologías y el histórico de trasplante, son factores relacionados con el aumento de los niveles de resiliencia; y, el uso de medicamentos antidepresivos y antihipertensivos son factores que pueden interferir en la disminución de la resiliencia. Conclusión la intervención contribuyó para la mejora de la resiliencia y de algunos dominios de la calidad de vida de los pacientes, pudiendo ser estimulada su aplicabilidad en el contexto de los pacientes en hemodiálisis.

ABSTRACT

Abstract This study aimed to evaluate the oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and associated factors in the elderly. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 287 elderly of Cruz Alta, Brazil. The following variables were collected: age, sex, ethnicity, level of education, marital status, retirement, medical/dental history, smoking/alcohol exposure, oral hygiene habits, use and need of dental prosthesis, missing teeth, temporomandibular disorder symptoms (TMD), nutritional status, and halitosis. OHRQoL was assessed by Oral Health Impact Profile-14 (OHIP-14). The sample was categorized into low impact (sum scores ≤6) and high impact (sum scores ≥7). Associations were analyzed by Poisson regression with robust variation. Mean scores of OHIP-14 was 5.92±8.54. Divorced individuals and those who did not use dental floss presented 77% and 54%, respectively, higher prevalence ratio (PR) of having higher OHRQoL impact. Elderly that did not need dental prosthesis demonstrated a lower impact on OHRQoL (P<0.01). Elderly with TMD presented a higher PR of having higher OHRQoL impact (P<0.01). It was concluded that higher impact on OHRQoL was associated with marital status, non-users of dental floss and those with TMD. No need dental prosthesis were associated with lower impact on OHRQoL.


Resumo O estudo avaliou a qualidade de vida relacionada à saúde bucal (QVRSB) e fatores associados em idosos. Estudo transversal foi realizado em 287 idosos de Cruz Alta, Brasil. As seguintes variáveis foram coletadas: idade, sexo, etnia, nível educacional, estado civil, aposentadoria, histórico médico/odontológico, exposição ao fumo/álcool, hábitos de higiene oral, uso e necessidade de prótese, dentes ausentes, sintomas de desordem temporomandibular (DTM), estado nutricional e halitose. QVRSB foi avaliada pelo OHIP-14 (Perfil de Impacto de Saúde Bucal) e categorizado em baixo impacto (soma dos escores ≤6) e alto impacto (soma dos escores ≥7). Associações foram avaliadas por regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. A média OHIP-14 foi 5,92±8.54. Indivíduos divorciados e aqueles que reportaram não usar fio dental apresentaram 77% e 54%, respectivamente, maior razão de prevalência (RP) de terem maior impacto na QVRSB. Idosos que não necessitam próteses dentárias demonstraram menor impacto na QVRSB (P<0,01). Além disso, idosos com DTM apresentaram maior RP de terem maiores escores de OHIP-14 (P<0,01). Foi concluído que maiores impactos na QVRSB estão associados com estado civil, não uso de fio dental e DTM. Não necessitar de prótese dentária esteve associado com menores impactos na QVRSB.

ABSTRACT

Resumo Na década de 1950, surgia o movimento da medicina psicossomática no Brasil, tendo como protagonista o psiquiatra e psicanalista Danilo Perestrello. A configuração dessa proposta e a análise das estratégias construídas para a formação desse campo disciplinar são o objeto deste estudo. Desde o início, esse movimento foi marcado por um projeto teórico-institucional de refundação da medicina sobre bases psicanalíticas e de institucionalização. Em sua trajetória, Perestrello publicou artigos e livros que tinham como intuito formar um novo estilo de pensamento entre os médicos, bem como a ocupação de instituições estratégicas. Seu afastamento profissional, devido a uma grave doença em 1976, representou um fator desagregador do movimento psicossomático no contexto brasileiro.


Abstract In the 1950s, the psychosomatic medicine movement emerged in Brazil, led by psychiatrist and psychoanalyst Danilo Perestrello. This article analyzes the strategies developed to configure this proposal and establish this field of study. From the beginning, this movement was characterized by a plan to reformulate medicine based on psychoanalytic theory and obtain favorable reception in institutions. During his career, Perestrello published articles and books with the intention of establishing a new way of thinking among physicians and worked at strategic institutions. His withdrawal from professional work due to a serious illness in 1976 was a factor contributing to the fragmentation of the psychosomatic movement in Brazil.

ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: The brief psychotherapeutic intervention "relaxation, mental images and spirituality" (relaxamento, imagens mentais e espiritualidade, RIME) is a form of complementary and alternative health-related therapy. It is a pioneer in the matter of relating the elements of spirituality to relaxation and to visualization of mental images. OBJECTIVE: To ascertain the history, use and benefits of RIME that have been reported in the scientific literature, within different health/disease contexts. The questions that guided this study were: In what contexts has the brief RIME psychotherapeutic intervention been used? What were its benefits? DESIGN AND SETTING: Systematic review, conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) methodology, in a public university. METHODS: The BVSPsi, CINAHL, MEDLINE, SciELO, SCOPUS and Web of Science databases were searched in September and October 2018. RESULTS: The findings showed that RIME promoted resignification of the symbolic pain of the death of patients without the possibility of cure; improved quality of life within the process of dying; contributed to the quality of life of breast cancer patients with cure possibilities; contributed to the emotional wellbeing of ostomized patients; brought quality-of-life benefits for patients with head-and-neck cancer; promoted empowerment for women with breast cancer and strengthened their libido; and promoted resignification of the spiritual pain of bereaved youths, offering a satisfactory return from mourning preparation. CONCLUSIONS: It was found that RIME has a construct history based on rigorous scientific methodology, covering quality of life and spiritual, emotional and subjective wellbeing. RIME has not been used internationally and new studies within this field, with different cases, should be encouraged. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION: PROSPERO ID 164211.

ABSTRACT

Resumo: Objetiva-se compreender a síndrome de Münchhausen a partir da descrição das suas causas, dos critérios de identificação, dos sinais clínicos, do diagnóstico e do tratamento, bem como das assistências realizadas pela Enfermagem e pela equipe interdisciplinar com interface da Bioética. Trata-se de uma revisão narrativa de literatura de caráter exploratório reflexivo, com abordagem qualitativa. Realizaram-se buscas de estudos em periódicos publicados entre 2009 e 2019; a amostra final constituiu-se por 30 artigos, além de livros, manuais e normativas. Os resultados apresentados evidenciam o conhecimento da quinta edição do Manual Diagnóstico e Estatístico de Transtornos Mentais, no qual a expressão "síndrome de Münchhausen imposto a si próprio" foi substituída por "transtorno factício autoimposto", e a "síndrome de Münchhausen por procuração" foi alterada para "transtorno factício imposto a outro", quanto à bioética. Indivíduos com o distúrbio factício tendem a buscar tratamento para si mesmo ou para outro. O comportamento desses pacientes aumenta a probabilidade de terem realmente uma doença física e até mesmo ir a óbito, causado pelo excesso de uso de medicações e pelos diversos procedimentos invasivos. Portanto, conclui-se que identificar o quadro clínico pode ser uma das primeiras iniciativas para a detecção e a prevenção. O tratamento deve se concentrar no manejo, com a possibilidade do uso da psicoterapia e de antidepressivos, antipsicóticos e ansiolíticos. A equipe de enfermagem e a multiprofissional devem estar atentas a sinais e sintomas para uma intervenção precisa e precoce, pois desempenham importante papel na identificação adequada do diagnóstico.


Summary: The objective is to understand Münchhausen syndrome, with the description of its causes, identification criteria, clinical signs, diagnosis and treatment, as well as the assistance provided in nursing and the interdisciplinary team regarding bioethics. This paper is a narrative review of literature with a reflective exploratory nature, and a qualitative approach. We searched for studies in journals published between 2009 and 2019, and a final sample consisting of 30 articles, in addition to books, manuals and regulations. The results presented corroborate the claims in the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, in which the term "Münchhausen syndrome imposed on self" was replaced by "factitious disorder imposed on self", and the "Münchhausen syndrome by proxy" was changed to "factitious disorder imposed on another", in Bioethics. People with factitious disorder tend to seek treatment for themselves or for others. The behavior of these patients increases the likelihood of physical illness and even death, caused by overuse of medications and as a result of various invasive procedures. Therefore, it is concluded that identifying the clinical picture may be one of the first initiatives for detection and prevention. Treatment should focus on management, being able to use psychotherapy, antidepressants, antipsychotics, and anxiolytics. The nursing team and the multidisciplinary team must be alert to the signs and symptoms for accurate and early intervention since they play an important role in the proper identification of the diagnosis.


Resumen: El objetivo es comprender el síndrome de Münchhausen, con la descripción de sus causas, criterios de identificación, signos clínicos, diagnóstico y tratamiento, así como la asistencia brindada en enfermería y el equipo interdisciplinario en cuanto a la bioética. Es una revisión narrativa de la literatura con un carácter exploratorio reflexivo, con un enfoque cualitativo. Se realizaron búsquedas de estudios en revistas publicadas entre 2009 y 2019, y una muestra final que consta de 30 artículos, además de libros, manuales y reglamentos. Los resultados presentados corroboran el conocimiento de la quinta edición del Manual Diagnóstico y Estadístico de los Trastornos Mentales, en el que el término "síndrome de Münchhausen impuesto a uno mismo" fue reemplazado por "trastorno facticio autoimpuesto", y el "síndrome de Münchhausen por proxy" se alteró a "trastorno facticio impuesto a otro", ante la Bioética. Las personas con trastorno facticio tienden a buscar tratamiento para sí mismas o para otros. El comportamiento de estos pacientes aumenta la probabilidad de tener una enfermedad física e incluso la muerte, causada por el uso excesivo de medicamentos y como resultado de varios procedimientos invasivos. Por lo tanto, se concluye que identificar el cuadro clínico puede ser una de las primeras iniciativas para la detección y la prevención. El tratamiento debe centrarse en el manejo, poder usar psicoterapia, antidepresivos, antipsicóticos y ansiolíticos. El equipo de enfermería y el equipo multidisciplinario deben estar atentos a los signos y síntomas para una intervención precisa y temprana, pues desempeñan un papel importante en la identificación adecuada del diagnóstico.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo Este artigo almejou comparar a frequência de dermatoses psicossomáticas e a qualidade de vida de estudantes universitários da área de saúde. Métodos Neste estudo analítico, transversal e quantitativo, foram aplicados dois questionários online para estudantes da saúde: World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale Abbreviated Version, para avaliar a qualidade de vida, e outro elaborado pelos pesquisadores para analisar a frequência de oito psicodermatoses e sua relação com o estresse, o desconforto com as lesões e a busca pela ajuda médica ou psicológica. Para aferir a relação entre as dermatoses psicossomáticas e a qualidade de vida, foi considerado p<0,05 do teste qui-quadrado. Resultados Participaram do estudo 608 estudantes. A dermatose mais frequente foi escoriação (37,99%), seguida de retirada de cutícula, mordida em lábios e bochechas (32,40%) e prurido psicogênico (14,63%), sendo a automutilação a com menor frequência (1,15%). Dos que tiveram alguma dermatose psicossomática, 82,33% acreditam que estão relacionadas ao estresse acadêmico, 66,20% se sentem desconfortáveis, e 43,45% já buscaram ajuda médica ou psicológica. A qualidade de vida foi considerada boa por 92,76% no domínio físico, 95,72% no meio ambiente, 88,81% no psicológico e 88,89% nas relações sociais. Houve associação entre a queda da qualidade de vida no domínio físico e a frequência das dermatoses psicossomáticas retirada de cutícula, mordida em lábios ou bochechas (p=0,001), tricotilomania (p=0,055) e prurido psicogênico (p=0,0009); e, no psicológico, com retirada de cutícula, mordida de lábios ou bochechas (p=0,059), escoriações (p=0,087) e prurido psicogênico (p=0,002). Conclusão Dermatoses psicossomáticas são encontradas em mais de 30% dos estudantes; porém, sua associação com a queda de qualidade de vida não pode ser confirmada.


Objective The study aims to compare the frequency of psychosomatic dermatoses occurrences with the quality of life of undergraduate health students. Methods This is an analytical, transversal, and quantitative study. Two online questionnaires were applied to students. The first one was developed by the researchers in order to analyze the frequency of 8 psychodermatoses and their relation to stress, discomfort with the injuries, and search for medical or psychological help. The second, the World Health Organization Quality of Life Group ­ Abbreviated Version, whose domains we determine as good or bad (with averages above or below 50%). To evaluate the relation between dermatoses and quality of life, the chi-square test was performed with p<0.05. Results 608 students participated in the study. The dermatosis found more frequently was excoriation (37.99%), followed by cuticle removal, lip and cheek bite (32.40%), and psychogenic pruritus (14.63%). Self-mutilation was the least frequent form of dermatoses (1.15%). Among those who had some sort of psychosomatic dermatoses, 82.33% believe they were related to academic stress, 66.20% feel uncomfortable, and 43.45% have already sought medical or psychological help. The quality of life was considered good in 92.76% in the physical domain, 95.72% in the environment, 88.81% in the psychological realm, and 88.89% in social relations. There was a relationship between the decrease in quality of life in the physical domain and the frequency of the following psychosomatic dermatoses: cuticle removal, lip or cheek bite (p=0.001), trichotillomania (p=0.055), and psychogenic pruritus (p=0.0009). Decreases in the quality of life as related to the psychological domain were related to cuticle removal, lip or cheek bite (p=0.059), excoriations (p=0.087), and psychogenic pruritus (p=0.002). Conclusion Psychosomatic dermatoses are found in more than one third of students, but their association with decreases in quality of life could not be confirmed.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Patients with psychocutaneous disorders often refuse psychiatric intervention in their first consultations, leaving initial management to the dermatologist. The use of psychotropic agents in dermatological practice, represented by antidepressants, antipsychotics, anxiolytics, and mood stabilizers, should be indicated so that patients receive the most suitable treatment rapidly. It is important for dermatologists to be familiar with the most commonly used drugs for the best management of psychiatric symptoms associated with dermatoses, as well as to manage dermatologic symptoms triggered by psychiatric disorders.
