Mind-Body Approaches for Medical Conditions

Rheumatoid ArthritisPsoriasis1 more

Chronic diseases are currently the most prevalent and most costly health conditions world-wide, and morbidity is expected to increase over coming years. Factors such that increased life-expectancy and certain life style-related factors, such as smoking, high-fat diet and alcohol-consumption, are commonly associated with the increase in most of the common chronic diseases. However, more complex psychosocial factors such as depression, stress, work-related dynamics and thinking patterns are thought be associated with poor health status and impaired health related quality of life among patients with suffering from chronic physical conditions (i.e. a biopsychosocial approach). Therefore, psychosocial intervention has been suggested as a complementary treatment strategy for patients with chronic conditions. The aim of this randomized trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of mind-body multidisciplinary rehabilitation on health-related quality of life, and disease specific endpoints in people with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, or heart failure.

Comparing Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy and Mindfulness Based Self-compassion Therapy in a...

Psoriasis

Increasing research evidence supports the effectiveness of mindfulness based interventions; however, the exact mechanisms of change are poorly understood. Some evidence proposes that self-compassion is an important mechanism of change in the effectiveness of mindfulness based interventions. The current research will evaluate and compare the effectiveness of two mindfulness meditation approaches; Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) and Mindfulness based Self-compassion Therapy (MBSCT), for individuals with psoriasis, a skin condition commonly associated with stress. Blood analyses will be conducted to assess and compare the impact of the interventions on the immune system. Self-report questionnaires will explore participants' psychological functioning (e.g. self-compassion, depression, anxiety, worry). This study will also examine whether a relationship exists between immune functioning and psychological factors. An audio-guided MBSCT programme will be piloted, with a view to trialling as a more cost-effective alternative to traditional mindfulness interventions. Findings will enable us to design more effective interventions in the future, and yield clear results regarding the existence of a definite link between immunological functioning and psychological functioning. The main research hypothesis is that participants who complete a mindfulness based intervention will experience significantly greater psychological well-being, symptom reduction, and greater changes in telomerase and cytokine activity than individuals who only receive treatment as usual for their psoriasis.

Neuroinflammation, Affective and Cognitive Symptoms in Major Depression and Psoriasis

PsoriasisNeuroinflammation3 more

Objectives: To identify peripheral neuroinflammatory markers in patients suffering from major depression or psoriasis in relation to affective symptoms (anxiety, depression, irritability), fatigue and cognitive symptoms; and their change after specific treatments. Methodology: Observational prospective cohort study in patients diagnosed with major depression and patients with plaque psoriasis, who naturalistically undergo different treatments (systemic or biological for psoriasis, antidepressants for depression). Forty-one patients with major depression attending psychiatric consultations and 82 patients with psoriasis attending dermatology consultations at Hospital Universitari Germans Trias i Pujol aged 18 to 65 years old will be selected for inclusion. All of them will be assessed at baseline and after 4 months treatment through a series of demographic and clinical variables, psychiatric diagnosis, psychopathological scales and immunological and biochemical variables after blood draw for obtaining serum, peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) and extraction of total RNA. Investigators will analyze the correlation between immunological markers and affective and cognitive symptoms at baseline, as well as their variation after treatment. Subsequently, a bivariate comparative analysis will be carried out, where statistically significant or marginally significant variables associated with psychopathological variables will be used to construct a multivariate model of binary logistic regression.

Role of Chemokine and Chemokine Receptor in Psoriasis

Psoriasis

This study aims to elucidate the role of Chemokine and chemokine receptor in the pathogenesis of Psoriasis by using human psoriasis skin xenograft SCID mouse model. The hypothesis is that chemokine and chemokine receptor play important roles in psoriasis and establishment of human skin xenograft mouse model provide excellent platform to test the hypothesis.

Analysis of the Pathogenesis of Itch in Response to Apremilast Therapy in Psoriasis Patients

Moderate to Severe Plaque Psoriasis

This study aims to identify and describe the presence of itch active molecules in psoriasis and response to treatment with apremilast. This data will be complemented by immunohistochemical data determining nerve ending density and neuropeptide concentrations before and during treatment and correlated with patient reported outcome. It is important to underscore that itch may interfere with various aspects of patient functioning, emotions and social status and should therefore be adequately addressed while treating patients with psoriasis
