A feasibility study of the Redesigning Daily Occupations (ReDOTM-10) programme in an Irish context
(2021)
Fox, Jackie; Erlandsson, Lena-Karin; Shiel, Agnes
Abstract:
Despite high demand, mental health services in primary care in Ireland are underdeveloped. People with mild/moderate anxiety, depression and unspecified psychological distress are frequently seen in primary care settings, mostly by general practitioners (GPs). Occupational therapists have the potential to contribute to service-provision with interventions specially designed for the targeted group e.g. the Redesigning Daily Occupations programme (ReDO-10). This study aimed to explore the feasibility of a future RCT of the ReDO-10 programme in Ireland and the contextual factors that would influence future implementation. Using a multi-phase, mixed-method design, qualitative and quantitative data were gathered from key stakeholders: ReDO-10 participants (n¿=¿10), GPs (n¿=¿9) and occupational therapists (n¿=¿2). Acceptability, satisfaction, cultural fit and demand were explored, as well as methodological issues such as appropriateness of recruitment methods, outcome measures and randomi...

A systematic review and narrative synthesis of occupational therapy-led interventions for individuals with anxiety and stress-related disorders
(2019)
Fox, Jackie; Erlandsson, Lena-Karin; Shiel, Agnes
Abstract:
Anxiety and stress-related disorders are highly prevalent and impede participation in life activities. Occupational therapists work extensively with people diagnosed with these disorders but the effectiveness of their interventions is unclear. A systematic search strategy identified 19 papers describing 13 studies. Studies varied in methodology, intervention type, and theory base. The results show the potential for lifestyle approaches, occupational science-based programs, and skill-building to improve mental health. The variety of interventions and methodologies of many studies means that the effectiveness of occupational therapy interventions for this population is not yet determined. High-quality research is required to replicate interventions with emerging potential for effectiveness.

Comparative compositional analysis of the gut microbiome in animal models of addiction and stress
(2018)
Peterson, Veronica L.
Abstract:
Intro: The microbiome-gut-brain axis (MGBA) has been shown to be instrumental to brain and behaviour, including psychological disorders affecting stress, depression, and anxiety. Many of the aforementioned disorders are comorbid with substance abuse disorders, and on a larger scale with addiction. In this body of work, we seek to characterize addiction-related phenotypes in the microbiome and correlate with measures of addiction-related behaviours, along with changes in the virome following chronic social stress. Aims: We first examined if vapor administration of ethanol is capable of altering the microbiome and to assess if substances of abuse, such as ethanol, can alter the microbiome outside of oral/gastrointestinal administration. To characterize addictive phenotypes behavioural measures of impulsivity, reward learning, and dopaminergic response to novelty were used. Methods: All studies were carried out in rodents. Following behavioural testing, gut microbiota samples were anal...

Emotion regulation style and cardiovascular reactivity to active and passive stress: cross-sectional and experimental analyses
(2020)
Griffin, Siobhán M.
Abstract:
Introduction. The present thesis examines the influence of individual differences in emotion regulation style on stress responsivity. Three key methodological refinements were incorporated to help elucidate if individual differences in emotion regulation influences cardiovascular reactivity (CVR) to psychological stress. First, a standardised laboratory stress paradigm was employed, yielding more reliable assessment of CVR; emotion regulation research rarely incorporates a valid resting baseline measurement. Second, more sophisticated indices of physiological arousal were assessed, such as blood pressure, cardiac output, and total peripheral resistance; emotion regulation research typically uses skin conductance responses as an index of physiological responding. Third, this research examined the underlying patterns of hemodynamic responding. Methods. Five empirical studies are reported. Study 1 examined associations between habitual emotion regulation style, perceived stress, and ps...

Happy birthday? An observational study
(2019)
Kelly, Gabrielle E.; Kelleher, Cecily
Abstract:
Background: Previous studies show contradictory findings on the relationship between birthday and deathday, in particular whether people postpone death until after their birthday. We examine the phenomenon in eight groups of famous people. Methods: Birthday and deathday for the following groups were recorded: British prime ministers, US presidents, Academy Award best actor, best female actor, best director, Nobel Prize winners, Wimbledon men’s and ladies' singles winners, all from when records began. For each group, the difference in days between the deathday and birthday was calculated. Under the hypothesis of no association, one can expect the difference to have a uniform distribution. This is assessed using goodness-of-fit tests on a circle. Results: All groups showed some departure from the uniform and it occurred around the birthday in all groups. British prime ministers, US presidents, Academy Award actors and directors, Nobel Prize winners and Wimbledon men show a ’dip...

Hemodynamic profile, compensation deficit, and ambulatory blood pressure
(2018)
Ottaviani, Cristina; Shapiro, David; Goldstein, Iris B.; James, Jack E.; Weiss, Robert
Abstract:
This study hypothesized that physiologically grounded patterns of hemodynamic profile and compensation deficit would be superior to traditional blood pressure reactivity in the prediction of daily-life blood pressure. Impedance cardiography-derived measures and beat-to-beat blood pressure were monitored continuously in 45 subjects during baseline and four tasks. Ambulatory blood pressure measures were obtained combining data. from one work day and one off day. The mediating effects of gender and family history of hypertension were considered. Only gender was significantly associated with hemodynamic profile. Regression analysis indicated that typical reactivity measures failed to predict everyday life blood pressure. After controlling for gender and baseline blood pressure, hemodynamic patterns during specific tasks proved to be strong predictors, overcoming limitations of previous reactivity models in predicting real-life blood pressure.

<p>A large body of empirical research shows that psychosocial risk factors (PSRFs) such as low socio-economic status, social isolation, stress, Type-D personality, depression and anxiety increase the risk of incident coronary heart disease (CHD) and also contribute to poorer health-related quality of life (HRQL) and prognosis in patients with established CHD. PSRFs may also act as barriers to lifestyle changes and treatment adherence and may moderate the effects of cardiac rehabilitation (CR). Furthermore, there appears to be a bidirectional interaction between PSRFs and the cardiovascular system. Stress, anxiety and depression affect the cardiovascular system through immune, neuroendocrine and behavioural pathways. In tu...

Abstract:
The present study examined the association between psychological stress, social support and antibody response to both thymus-dependent and thymus-independent vaccinations. Stressful life events in the previous year and customary social support were measured by standard questionnaires at baseline in 75 (41 females) healthy students. Antibody status was assessed at baseline, 4 and 18 weeks following vaccination with formaldehyde inactivated hepatitis A virus and pneumococcal polysaccharides, which induce thymus-dependent and -independent antibody responses respectively. Controlling for baseline antibody status, life event stress was negatively associated with antibody response to the hepatitis A vaccine at the 18-week follow-up; participants reporting a greater number of stressful life events had a poorer antibody response. There was no relationship between psychological stress and antibody response to pneumococcal vaccination. Social support was not associated with the antibody respo...

Positive affect is associated with more adaptive responses to psychological stress. However, few studies have examined the association between gratitude, a specific type of positive affect, with physiological responses to acute psychological stress. The current study aimed to replicate and extend on previous work examining the associations between state and trait gratitude and cardiovascular stress reactivity in 324 (59.9% female, 67.0% Caucasian, 17.9% Hispanic) healthy participants. State gratitude was measured at the beginning of the laboratory session using the Gratitude Adjective Checklist-Three Items. Trait gratitude was measured using the Gratitude Questionnaire-Six Items. Blood pressure and heart rate reactions to an acute mental arithmetic task were measured. In regression models that adjusted for baseline cardiovascular activity, body mass index, sex, depressive symp...
