Psychological treatments for mental health symptoms associated with COVID-19 infection: A scoping review. PCN REPORTS : PSYCHIATRY AND CLINICAL NEUROSCIENCES 2024; 3:e223. [PMID: 38962000 PMCID: PMC11216928 DOI: 10.1002/pcn5.223] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this scoping review was to synthesize published studies and ongoing clinical trials of psychological interventions for mental health problems associated with COVID-19 infection. The study protocol was developed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Extension for Scoping Reviews. We conducted systematic searches for studies published or registered between January 2020 and October 2022 using eight scientific databases and clinical trial registries, which identified 40 complete published studies and 53 ongoing clinical trials. We found that most studies were randomized controlled trials (74%) while the remaining used study designs of lower methodological quality. Most studies investigated interventions for acute COVID-19 patients (74%) and others explored post-COVID conditions (PCC) or recovered patients. Cognitive and behavioral therapies were the main intervention approaches (31%), followed by multidisciplinary programs (21%) and mindfulness (17%). The most frequently evaluated outcomes were anxiety (33%), depression (26%), quality of life (13%), and insomnia (10%). No studies on youths, older people, or marginalized communities were found. These findings summarize the burgeoning research on a range of psychological interventions for individuals infected with COVID-19. However, the field is in its infancy and further research to develop an evidence base for targeted care is necessary. The gaps identified in the current study also highlight the need for more research on youths, older people, and members of marginalized communities, and PCC patients. It is important to ascertain interventions and delivery strategies that are not only effective and affordable but also allow high scalability and accessibility.

Abstract
Tedeschi & Calhoun's model of posttraumatic growth (PTG) suggests that intrusive thoughts about a traumatic event, in combination with helpful coping strategies, facilitates PTG. This manuscript applies this model to a sample of breast cancer survivors, augments it to conceptualize coping strategies as "active" or "avoidant," and extends it to include health-related quality of life (HRQOL). This is a secondary analysis of a subset of breast cancer patients (N = 123) in a randomized clinical trial of Tibetan yoga, which examines the associations of coping at study entry with PTG, PTSS (i.e., intrusive thoughts and avoidance), and HRQOL (physical (PCS) and mental (MCS) component scales) reported 9 and 15 months later. Mediation analyses revealed that higher baseline active coping predicted higher 9-month PTG, which in turn predicted higher 15-month PCS [effect = .46, 95% CI (.06, 1.07)]. Exploratory moderated mediation analyses revealed that higher baseline intrusive thoughts about cancer predicted lower 9-month PTG, which in turn predicted lower 15-month PCS, but only for those reporting low active coping [effect = - .06, 95% CI (- .16, - .003)]. Active coping may play a critical role of fostering PTG and improving subsequent HRQOL in the presence of rumination about cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of cognitive behavioral therapy on anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients with advanced cancer. METHODS A systematical search was conducted on Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, Chinese Biomedical Database, CNKI, VIP Database, and Wanfang database, and the search time was from the inception to May 26, 2023. Randomized controlled trials focusing on the effects of cognitive behavioral therapy on anxiety and depressive symptoms in patients with advanced cancer were collected using relevant terms such as advanced stage, cancer, anxiety, depression, and cognitive behavioral therapy. The quality of included studies was evaluated using the Cochrane risk of bias (ROB 2.0) tool, and meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.4 software. RESULTS 15 articles, including 1,597 patients, were included. Twelve of the studies reported the effect of CBT on anxiety symptoms in 1,485 advanced cancer patients; Fifteen studies reported the effect of CBT on depressive symptoms in 1,861 advanced cancer patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that CBT was effective in decreasing anxiety [SMD = -0.55, 95% CI (-0.82, -0.27), P < 0.001, I2 = 84%] and depressive symptoms [SMD = -0.38, 95% CI (-0.58, -0.17), P < 0.001, I2 = 78%] in patients with advanced cancer compared to controls, especially the interventions that were delivered lasted for 2-8 weeks. CONCLUSION Cognitive behavioral therapy lasting for 2-8 weeks is effective for anxiety and depressive symptoms in advanced cancer patients to a moderate degree, but more rigorous research is needed to guide the choice between online and face-to-face delivery mode and the priority of self-guided versus therapist-guided interventions still needs to be studied.

Abstract
PURPOSE A single-arm trial evaluated the feasibility, acceptability, and outcomes of COPE-D, a collaborative care intervention for underserved cancer patients with depression. METHODS Bilingual (Spanish and English) care managers provided counseling and/or medication management in consultation with physicians. Outcomes were treatment improvement (≥ 5-point reduction in PHQ-9), treatment response (≥ 50% reduction in PHQ-9), suicidal ideation resolution, and changes in depression (PHQ-9), anxiety (GAD-2), sleep disturbance (PSQI), global mental and physical health (PROMIS), social isolation (PROMIS), and qualitative feedback. RESULTS 193 patients consented to participate. 165 initiated and 141 completed treatment, with 65% and 56% achieving treatment improvement and response, respectively. Outcomes did not differ by ethnicity (31% Hispanic), cancer stage (71% stages III-IV), income, or education. Suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, and social isolation also improved. Qualitative feedback was largely positive. CONCLUSION COPE-D improved depression and quality of life among underserved patients, with acceptable retention rates.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to understand and identify barriers to resilience in young and middle-aged patients with lymphoma in the context of Chinese culture. METHODS A qualitative descriptive study was employed. Face-to-face, semi-structured, and in-depth individual interviews were conducted between May and July 2022. Purposive and differential sampling was used to select eligible participants. Conventional content analysis was used to analyze qualitative data and identify categories and subcategories. This study followed the COREQ checklist. RESULTS Twenty patients aged 28-59 years completed the interviews. Three categories involving thirteen subcategories were identified from the interview data: (1) internal barriers-derived from individual cognitive, emotional, behavioral, spiritual, and physical distress, resulting in internal negative constructs, and reducing the motivation to overcome adversity; (2) unbalanced family functioning-families threatened by disease are incapable of maintaining normal functioning and fail to act effectively when facing crises; and (3) absent social support-insufficient or unavailable shielding protection from social support further inhibits resilience among patients with lymphoma. CONCLUSIONS This study identified various barriers to the resilience of young and middle-aged patients with lymphoma in the context of Chinese culture. In addition to the patient's internal barriers of resilience, specific family and socio-cultural barriers should also be emphasized by healthcare professionals. Multidisciplinary and family-centered resilience intervention should be developed to help such patients cope with, adapt to the disease, and achieve good psychosocial returns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND At present, simple reminiscence has been widely used in the field of neurocognitive disorders, life review/life review therapy has been widely used in the field of cancer, and both simple reminiscence and life review/life review therapy are suitable for psychological disorders such as depression and anxiety. However, the efficacy of reminiscence in treating cancer-related symptom has not been fully assessed. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of reminiscence therapy (RT) on relieving cancer-related symptoms such as anxiety and depression in cancer survivals. METHODS China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP database, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China Biomedical Database, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, EBSCO, Scopus, and Ovid databases were searched. To collect clinical randomized controlled trials (RCT) on RT and cancer-related studies published from the establishment of the database to October 05, 2021. Two researchers independently evaluated the articles that met the inclusion criteria, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 20 RCTs published in 2010 to 2021 were included, with a total of 1853 cancer patients. Meta-analysis results showed that the anxiety scale (HADS-A and HAMA and SAS) and depression scale (HADS-D and HAMD and SDS) scores of the RT group were significantly lower than those of the control group (HADS-A: P = .0002; HAMA: P < .00001; SAS: P = .0010; HADS-D: P = .01; HAMD: P < .00001; SDS: P = .0001). Meta-analysis results showed that RT can improve overall quality of life of cancer patients of RT group to a certain extent hope (P < .00001). Meta-analysis results showed that the scores on the hope and dignity were significantly increased, and the difference were statistically significant (P < .001). CONCLUSION This review indicates that RT has significant efficacy on cancer-related symptoms such as anxiety and depression. RT for cancer survivals can effectively improve quality of life, self-hope, and self-esteem. The findings of this meta-analysis can provide direction for future symptom management research.
