Abstract
PURPOSE In early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), patients usually undergo a hysterectomy. However, in fertility sparing surgery (FSS), carefully selected patients could conserve their uterus. The aim of our study was to evaluate the incidence and epidemiologic characteristics associated with uterine involvement in patients with early-stage EOC, outside of FSS. METHODS We conducted a retrospective, monocentric, study from 2003 to 2019 and included all patients with a presumed early-stage EOC (FIGO I) who underwent a hysterectomy. The incidence of uterine involvement, predictive factors of uterine involvement, and the impact of uterine involvement on survival (recurrence-free survival and overall survival) were analyzed. RESULTS Eighty-five patients had an early-stage EOC. Of these, six had an uterine involvement (7%). The populations of patients with or without uterine involvement did not differ except for CA 125 at diagnosis (136 ± 138 versus 356 ± 723, p = 0.04, respectively). No patient or tumor characteristics were predictive of uterine involvement. Uterine involvement was not associated with recurrence-free survival (HR = 1.26, IC95% 0.36-4.4, p = 0.72) or overall survival (HR = 0.7, IC95% 0.1-6.1, p = 0.77). CONCLUSION Due to the small size of our sample, no conclusion can be drawn, yet it could be hypothesized that, for selected patients, a systematic hysterectomy could be discussed, notably in restaging surgery.

[PMID: 37328539 PMCID: PMC10275915 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-36838-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2022] [Accepted: 06/11/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023] Open
Abstract
The relationship between hysterectomy and ovarian preservation and depression is controversial. This study aimed to determine the association of hysterectomy and ovarian preservation with depression using National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. To assess the association between hysterectomy with or without ovariectomy and depression, we used 3 methods. Method 1: propensity score model (PSM) was established. Method 2 was logistics regression analysis of hysterectomy and depression before and after PSM. Method 3 was a logistics regression analysis of the relationship between hysterectomy and different depressive symptoms. At the same time, in order to evaluate the association between hysterectomy with or without oophorectomy and depression, we explored the effect of four different surgical procedures on depression using logistic regression equations. We enrolled 12,097 women, of whom 2763 underwent hysterectomy, 34.455% were positive for depression. After weighting, 33.825% of the total sample had a PHQ ≥ 5. Finally, a total of 2778 women were successfully matched by propensity score, and 35.537% of them were positive for depression. The OR for PHQ ≥ 5 was 1.236 after crude adjustment of covariates and 1.234 after exact adjustment. This suggests that Hysterectomy is strongly associated with positive depression. Positive depression (PHQ ≥ 5) was associated with little interest, feeling down and trouble concentrating. It was not associated with trouble sleeping, feeling tired, poor appetite, feeling bad, slow moving or speaking, and suicidal thoughts. Oophorectomy-alone is not associated with depression. Hysterectomy-alone is a risk factor for depression, but Hysterectomy combined with Oophorectomy has a stronger correlation with depression than Hysterectomy-alone. Women who have had a Hysterectomy are at higher risk of depression than women who have not had a Hysterectomy, and this risk may be exacerbated if the uterus and ovaries are removed. When clinically appropriate, surgeons should try to preserve the patient's ovaries.

Abstract
Background: The loss of female organs leads to profound changes in one's perception of oneself. There is limited information about the impact of hysterectomy on women's self-concept and culture. Therefore, this study was conducted with the aim to deepen our understanding of the self-concept of Iranian women after hysterectomy. Materials and Methods: This qualitative study was conducted using directed content analysis approach. The participants included 30 women with a history of hysterectomy who were selected through purposive sampling method. Data were collected from August 2018 to November 2019 using in-depth and semi-structured interviews based on the self-concept mode of the Roy Adaptation Model (RAM) in Mashhad, Iran. Data analysis was performed using the deductive approach of Elo and Kyngäs in MAXQDA software. Results: As a result of the analysis of the interviews, the main category of “incoherent cognition of self-concept” emerged, which included the two generic categories of “heterogeneous feelings toward and imaginations of the body” and “changed self-perception”, and five subcategories. Conclusions: Women's self-concept changed after hysterectomy in both its physical and psychological aspects. Therefore, counseling before and after hysterectomy is recommended to improve women's self-concept after hysterectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative depression is a risk factor for poor outcomes after spine surgery. OBJECTIVE To understand effects of depression on spine surgery outcomes and healthcare resource utilization. METHODS Using IBM's MarketScan Database, we identified 52 480 patients who underwent spinal fusion. Retained patients were classified into 6 depression phenotype groups based on International Classification of Disease, 9th/10th Revision (ICD-9/10) codes and use/nonuse of antidepressant medications: major depressive disorder (MDD), other depression (OthDep), antidepressants for other psychiatric condition (PsychRx), antidepressants for physical (nonpsychiatric) condition (NoPsychRx), psychiatric condition only (PsychOnly), and no depression (NoDep). We analyzed baseline demographics, comorbidities, healthcare utilization/payments, and chronic opioid use. RESULTS Breakdown of groups in our cohort: MDD (15%), OthDep (12%), PsychRx (13%), NonPsychRx (15%), PsychOnly (12%), and NoDep (33%). Postsurgery: increased outpatient resource utilization, admissions, and medication refills at 1, 2, and 5 yr in the NoDep, PsychOnly, NonPsychRx, PsychRx, and OthDep groups, and highest in MDD. Postoperative opioid usage rates remained unchanged in MDD (44%) and OthDep (36%), and reduced in PsychRx (40%), NonPsychRx (31%), and PsychOnly (20%), with greatest reduction in NoDep (13%). Reoperation rates: 1 yr after index procedure, MDD, OthDep, PsychRx, NonPsychRx, and PsychOnly had more reoperations compared to NoDep, and same at 2 and 5 yr. In NoDep patients, 45% developed new depressive phenotype postsurgery. CONCLUSION EHR-defined classification allowed us to study in depth the effects of depression in spine surgery. This increased understanding of the interplay of mental health will help providers identify cohorts at risk for high complication rates, and health care utilization.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We studied eight mental health conditions diagnosed before bilateral oophorectomy performed for nonmalignant indications. METHODS We identified 1,653 premenopausal women who underwent bilateral oophorectomy for a nonmalignant indication in Olmsted County, Minnesota, during a 20-year period (1988-2007). Each woman was matched by age (±1 year) to one population-based control who had not undergone bilateral oophorectomy before the index date (age range: 21-49 years). Both cases and controls were identified using the records-linkage system of the Rochester Epidemiology Project (REP http://www.rochesterproject.org). For eight mental health conditions, we calculated odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) adjusted for race, education, and income using conditional logistic regression. RESULTS Pre-existing mood disorders, anxiety disorders, and somatoform disorders were associated with increased risk of bilateral oophorectomy in overall analyses. These associations were also significant in women ≤45 years of age at index date. Personality disorders were associated with increased risk only in overall analyses and adjustment disorders only in women 46 to 49 years of age. Some of the associations were significantly different across strata by age at index date and by indication. There was also a linear trend of increasing adjusted ORs from 1.55 (95% CI 1.31-1.83) for one mental health condition to 2.19 (95% CI 1.40-3.41) for three or more conditions (trend P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS We identified several mental health conditions that were associated with bilateral oophorectomy for nonmalignant indications. Awareness of these associations may guide women and physicians in future decision-making and limit unindicated bilateral oophorectomies. VIDEO SUMMARY:: http://links.lww.com/MENO/A458.

Abstract
Introduction Hysterectomy as kind of surgery in which the uterus is removed, is carried out in a very high number around the world. Uterus is important because of its impact on feminism and fertility, so the exit of this important organ can lead to many physical and mental disorders. These mental disorders can affect the quality of life of patients and ultimately lead to a reduction in the hope of their lives. Materials and Methods This study was cross sectional on 50 women under hysterectomy referred to the Semnan Amir-Al-Momenin hospital in 2017, in which patients were evaluated in terms of effective subsets of life expectancy that were determined from the angle of view of miller questionnaire, and finally the data were analyzed by SPSS v. 19. Results The results showed that there is no significant difference between hope to life before and after hysterectomy in those who underwent hysterectomy. The results of our study showed that age, occupation, and education factors in patients who participated in this study did not have any meaningful relation with life expectancy after hysterectomy surgery and there was also a statistically significant correlation between the scores of hope for life before hysterectomy with the rate of education in individuals. Conclusion Hysterectomy does not affect the patients' quality of live and don't reduce the hope of living in people who underwent surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this research was to study the long-term risk of de novo mental health conditions in women who underwent hysterectomy with bilateral ovarian conservation compared with age-matched referent women. METHODS Using the Rochester Epidemiology Project records-linkage system, we identified a historical cohort of 2,094 women who underwent hysterectomy with ovarian conservation for benign indications at age ≥18 years and with an index date between 1980 and 2002 in Olmsted County, Minnesota. Each woman was age-matched (±1 y) to a referent woman residing in the same county who had not undergone hysterectomy or any oophorectomy before the index date. These two cohorts were followed historically to identify de novo mental health conditions. We estimated hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) using Cox proportional hazards models adjusted for 20 preexisting chronic conditions and other potential confounders. We also calculated absolute risk increases (ARIs) and reductions (ARRs) at 30 years of follow-up. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 21.9 years, women who underwent hysterectomy at any age experienced increased risks of de novo depression (adjusted HR 1.26; 95% CI, 1.12-1.41; ARI 6.6%) and anxiety (adjusted HR 1.22; 95% CI, 1.08-1.38; ARI 4.7%). The association for depression increased significantly with younger age at hysterectomy, but did not vary significantly by indication. Interactions were not significant for anxiety. CONCLUSIONS Hysterectomy, even with ovarian conservation, is associated with an increased long-term risk of de novo depression and anxiety, especially when performed in women who are younger. : Video Summary:http://links.lww.com/MENO/A465.

Guidelines for the evaluation and treatment of perimenopausal depression: summary and recommendations. Menopause 2019; 25:1069-1085.

Abstract
There is a new appreciation of the perimenopause - defined as the early and late menopause transition stages as well as the early postmenopause - as a window of vulnerability for the development of both depressive symptoms and major depressive episodes. However, clinical recommendations on how to identify, characterize and treat clinical depression are lacking. To address this gap, an expert panel was convened to systematically review the published literature and develop guidelines on the evaluation and management of perimenopausal depression. The areas addressed included: 1) epidemiology; 2) clinical presentation; 3) therapeutic effects of antidepressants; 4) effects of hormone therapy; and 5) efficacy of other therapies (eg, psychotherapy, exercise, and natural health products). Overall, evidence generally suggests that most midlife women who experience a major depressive episode during the perimenopause have experienced a prior episode of depression. Midlife depression presents with classic depressive symptoms commonly in combination with menopause symptoms (ie, vasomotor symptoms, sleep disturbance), and psychosocial challenges. Menopause symptoms complicate, co-occur, and overlap with the presentation of depression. Diagnosis involves identification of menopausal stage, assessment of co-occurring psychiatric and menopause symptoms, appreciation of the psychosocial factors common in midlife, differential diagnoses, and the use of validated screening instruments. Proven therapeutic options for depression (ie, antidepressants, psychotherapy) are the front-line treatments for perimenopausal depression. Although estrogen therapy is not approved to treat perimenopausal depression, there is evidence that it has antidepressant effects in perimenopausal women, particularly those with concomitant vasomotor symptoms. Data on estrogen plus progestin are sparse and inconclusive.

Abstract
During the menopausal transition, which begins four to six years before cessation of menses, middle-aged women experience a progressive change in ovarian activity and a physiologic deterioration of hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis function associated with fluctuating hormone levels. During this transition, women can suffer symptoms related to menopause (such as hot flushes, sleep disturbance, mood changes, memory complaints and vaginal dryness). Neurological symptoms such as sleep disturbance, "brain fog" and mood changes are a major complaint of women transitioning menopause, with a significant impact on their quality of life, productivity and physical health. In this paper, we consider the associations between menopausal stage and/or hormone levels and sleep problems, mood and reduced cognitive performance. The role of estrogen and menopause hormone therapy (MHT) in cognitive function, sleep and mood are also discussed.

[PMID: 31025812 DOI: 10.1002/da.22904] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/30/2018] [Revised: 03/17/2019] [Accepted: 04/10/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hormonal fluctuations may trigger the onset of bipolar disorder. We designed a longitudinal follow-up study to evaluate the association between hysterectomies and bipolar disorder risk. METHODS We conducted a large retrospective cohort study using Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. A total of 4,337 women aged 30 to 50 years who underwent the hysterectomy during 2000-2013 were selected and 17,348 patients without hysterectomy were selected for comparison (1:4 match). Poisson regression analysis was used to calculate the incidence rate ratio (IRR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS During the follow-up of 7.93 years, 20 participants with hysterectomy and 28 without hysterectomy developed bipolar disorder. Receiving hysterectomy was associated with the risk of developing bipolar disorder (adjusted IRR = 2.80; 95% CI = 2.54-3.09). Women with hysterectomy had a higher risk of bipolar disorder in follow-up durations of <1 year (adjusted IRR = 2.18 with 95% CI = 1.94-1.45) and ≥1 year (adjusted IRR = 2.85 with 95% CI = 2.58-3.15). Endometriosis and Premarin use increased bipolar disorder incidence in the hysterectomy group (adjusted IRR = 3.17 [95% CI = 2.83-3.56] and 4.22 [95% CI = 3.71-4.80], respectively). CONCLUSION This study concluded that women with hysterectomy have an increased risk of bipolar disorder. Endometriosis and hormone therapy may add to the risk of bipolar disorder after hysterectomy. Knowledge about how surgical or natural hormonal withdrawal influences mood is fundamental and emphasizes the importance of coordinated psychiatric and gynecological care.

Epidemiol Psychiatr Sci 2018; 27:381-392. [PMID: 28190411 PMCID: PMC6998864 DOI: 10.1017/s2045796016001220] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2016] [Accepted: 12/21/2016] [Indexed: 01/23/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS There is limited longitudinal research that has looked at the longer term incidence of depressive symptoms, comparing women with a hysterectomy to women without a hysterectomy. We aimed to investigate the association between hysterectomy status and the 12-year incidence of depressive symptoms in a mid-aged cohort of Australian women, and whether these relationships were modified by use of exogenous hormones. METHODS We used generalised estimating equation models for binary outcome data to assess the associations of the incidence of depressive symptoms (measured by the 10-item Centre for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale) across five surveys over a 12-year period, in women with a hysterectomy with ovarian conservation, or a hysterectomy with bilateral oophorectomy compared with women without a hysterectomy. We further stratified women with hysterectomy by their current use of menopausal hormone therapy (MHT). Women who reported prior treatment for depression were excluded from the analysis. RESULTS Compared with women without a hysterectomy (n = 4002), both women with a hysterectomy with ovarian conservation (n = 884) and women with a hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy (n = 450) had a higher risk of depressive symptoms (relative risk (RR) 1.20; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06-1.36 and RR 1.44; 95% CI 1.22-1.68, respectively). There were differences in the strength of the risk for women with a hysterectomy with ovarian conservation, compared with those without, when we stratified by current MHT use. Compared with women without a hysterectomy who did not use MHT, women with a hysterectomy with ovarian conservation who were also MHT users had a higher risk of depressive symptoms (RR 1.57; 95% CI 1.31-1.88) than women with a hysterectomy with ovarian conservation but did not use MHT (RR 1.17; 95% CI 1.02-1.35). For women with a hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy, MHT use did not attenuate the risk. We could not rule out, however, that the higher risk seen among MHT users may be due to confounding by indication, i.e. MHT was prescribed to treat depressive symptoms, but their depressive symptoms persisted. CONCLUSIONS Women with a hysterectomy (with and without bilateral oophorectomy) have a higher risk of new incidence of depressive symptoms in the longer term that was not explained by lifestyle or socio-economic factors.

Unique Learning System for Uterine Artery Embolization for Symptomatic Myoma and Adenomyosis for Obstetrician-Gynecologists in Cooperation with Interventional Radiologists: Evaluation of UAE From the Point of View of Gynecologists Who Perform UAE. J Minim Invasive Gynecol 2017; 25:84-92. [PMID: 28807810 DOI: 10.1016/j.jmig.2017.08.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2017] [Revised: 07/15/2017] [Accepted: 08/05/2017] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate a unique learning system for uterine artery embolization (UAE) and examine its feasibility and clinical outcomes for the treatment of symptomatic uterine leiomyomas and adenomyosis when performed by obstetrician-gynecologists in cooperation with interventional radiologists (IVRs). DESIGN Retrospective study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). SETTING University hospital. PATIENTS One hundred seventy-three patients who underwent UAE for symptomatic leiomyomas and adenomyosis. INTERVENTIONS We examined the medical records of patients who underwent UAE for symptomatic uterine leiomyomas and adenomyosis at our department between 2003 and 2012 using our learning system for UAE for obstetrician-gynecologists in cooperation with IVRs. The charts of all patients were reviewed, and data on etiologic factors, past medical history of leiomyomas and adenomyosis, symptoms, details of UAE, and clinical outcomes after UAE were extracted. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 173 patients who underwent 177 UAEs were identified, including 4 patients who underwent embolization twice because of primary treatment failure or symptom recurrence. During the study period, 2 gynecologists successfully acquired endovascular skills. The technical success rate was 97.7% (174 of 177). The duration of fluoroscopy in procedures performed by obstetrician-gynecologists who acquired endovascular skills was not significantly different from that in procedures performed by IVRs at our institution; however, this duration was significantly longer in procedures performed by obstetrician-gynecologists who did not have sufficient experience with our learning protocol for UAE because of inadequate live observation of UAEs performed by skilled IVRs. Complications that necessitated discontinuation of the procedure occurred in 2.3% of cases (4 of 177). The clinical outcomes were similar to those reported in previous studies. Adverse events after UAE included myeloid passages in 7.0% (11 of 158), infections in 2.5% (4 of 158), vaginal discharge in 2.5% of patients with leiomyomas (4 of 158), and vaginal discharge in 7.1% of patients with adenomyosis (1 of 14). All the adverse events were adequately treated by the obstetrician-gynecologists themselves. The timing of hysterectomy due to complications or recurrence of symptoms after UAE varied widely. CONCLUSION UAE performed by obstetrician-gynecologists in cooperation with radiologists can be achieved safely and successfully with acceptable clinical outcomes. Live observation of the procedure performed by skilled IVRs is essential to improving the skills and reducing the fluoroscopic time of obstetrician-gynecologists.

Psychiatric outcomes after hysterectomy in women with uterine myoma: a population-based retrospective cohort study. Arch Womens Ment Health 2017; 20:487-494.

Abstract
Controversy regarding psychological or psychiatric outcomes following hysterectomy still exists. The purpose of this study was to investigate the risk of postoperative psychiatric disorders in women with hysterectomy compared to that in women with uterus-conserving surgery for myomas by using population-based data from South Korea. This study was designed as a retrospective cohort study. We analyzed the National Health Insurance Service National Sample Cohort data including all administrative medical claims from 2002 to 2013. The study population, consisting of 9581 women, was defined as those diagnosed with uterine myoma who underwent medical procedures. The association between psychiatric and mood disorders and hysterectomy was assessed using Cox proportional hazard regression. During the study period, 1381 (14.4%) women experienced psychiatric disorders and 374 (3.9%) experienced mood disorders. The hazard ratio (HR) for psychiatric disorder was higher in women after hysterectomy than in women after uterus-conserving procedures (adjusted HR = 1.44; 95% CI = 1.27-1.64, p < 0.0001). In addition, the HR for mood disorders in women after hysterectomy was significantly higher than in women after uterus-conserving procedures (adjusted HR = 1.62; 95% CI = 1.26-2.08, p = 0.0002). Our study suggests that hysterectomy increased the risk of psychiatric disorders compared to uterus-conserving procedures in women with uterine myoma. Considering these findings, more focus on psychological responses in women following hysterectomy is needed, and appropriate psychosocial support or provisioning of information before or after procedures could reduce psychological distress.

Antidepressants and risk of cataract development: A population-based, nested case-control study. J Affect Disord 2017; 215:237-244. [PMID: 28342338 DOI: 10.1016/j.jad.2017.03.044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2017] [Revised: 03/13/2017] [Accepted: 03/17/2017] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies demonstrated increased risk of cataract development among users of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). However, it remains unknown whether this risk also prevails with the use of other types of antidepressants. The aim of this study was to investigate whether use of antidepressants is associated with an increased risk of cataract development. Moreover, the relationship between binding affinities of serotonin transporter (SERT) of antidepressant and the risk of cataracts is examined. METHODS We conducted a nested case-control study using National Health Insurance Research Database in Taiwan. A total of 14,288 patients were included; 7651 in the cataract group and 6637 in the control group. Antidepressant exposure was categorized by type, duration of use, and binding affinities of SERT. The association between antidepressant exposure and cataract development was assessed using conditional logistic regression analysis. RESULTS The adjusted odds ratios (AORs) for developing cataracts among continuous users of SSRIs, serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), and other antidepressants were 1.26 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.12-1.41, p<0.001), 1.21 (95% CI: 1.02-1.43, p=0.027), and 1.18 (95% CI: 1.04-1.34, p=0.009) respectively. Specifically, continuous uses of fluoxetine (AOR: 1.21; 95% CI: 1.01-1.46, p=0.042), fluvoxamine (AOR: 1.47; 95% CI: 1.01-2.12, p=0.043), venlafaxine (AOR: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.19-1.74, p<0.001) significantly increased the risk of cataract development. Moreover, continuous users of antidepressants with intermediate SERT binding affinities (AOR: 1.68; 95% CI: 1.10-2.56, p=0.017) were significantly associated with increased risks of cataract development. LIMITATIONS Several confounding factors such as obesity, multiple drug users, family history of cataracts, substance use, and environmental factors (such as sunlight or radiation exposure) were acquired. CONCLUSIONS We found increased risk of cataract development in patients continuously using antidepressants. Regular ocular evaluations in these patients are warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND No previous study has focused on the association between use of antipsychotic drugs and the development of cataracts in patients with bipolar disorder (BD); hence, we aimed to examine this association in the present study. METHODS We conducted a retrospective nested case-control study using data from the National Health Insurance Database of Taiwan between 2000 and 2011. A total of 3292 BD patients, 1684 with cataracts and 1608 controls matched for age, sex, and index date, were included. Antipsychotic drug exposure was categorized by type of drug and duration of use. A conditional logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the association. RESULTS Among BD patients, we found significantly reduced odds ratio (OR) of cataract development among past (adjusted OR (AOR), 0.74; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.62-0.89; p=0.001) and continuous users (AOR, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.59-0.85; p<0.001) of atypical antipsychotics. No association was found between the odds of cataract development and typical antipsychotics. Besides, concomitant use of antidepressants (AOR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.06-1.43; p=0.007) and mood stabilizers (AOR, 1.23; 95% CI, 1.06-1.42; p=0.007) were associated with increased odds of cataract development. LIMITATIONS Some important contributors to cataract development such as family history of cataract, smoking and alcohol exposure could not be measured from the claims data and this may confound the results. CONCLUSIONS Reduced odds of cataract were found in patients with BD taking atypical antipsychotics. However, given that BD patients often have risk factors for developing cataract, regular ocular evaluations are recommended for those treated with antipsychotics drugs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the relative incidence of newly recorded diagnosis of depression after spinal surgery as a proxy for the risk of post-spinal surgery depression. PATIENTS AND METHODS We used the longitudinal California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development database (January 1, 2000, through December 31, 2010) to identify patients who underwent spinal surgery during these years. Patients with documented depression before surgery were excluded. Risk of new postoperative depression was determined via the incidence of newly recorded depression on any hospitalization subsequent to surgery. For comparison, this risk was also determined for patients hospitalized during the same time period for coronary artery bypass grafting, hysterectomy, cholecystectomy, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure exacerbation, or uncomplicated vaginal delivery. RESULTS Our review identified 1,078,639 patients. Relative to the uncomplicated vaginal delivery cohort, the adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for newly recorded depression within 5 years after the admission of interest were 5.05 for spinal surgery (95% CI, 4.79-5.33), 2.33 for coronary artery bypass grafting (95% CI, 2.15-2.54), 3.04 for hysterectomy (95% CI, 2.88-3.21), 2.51 for cholecystectomy (95% CI, 2.35-2.69), 2.44 for congestive heart failure exacerbation (95% CI, 2.28-2.61), and 3.04 for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (95% CI, 2.83-3.26). Among patients who underwent spinal surgery, this risk of postoperative depression was highest for patients who underwent fusion surgery (HR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.22-1.36) or had undergone multiple spinal operations (HR, 1.22; 95% CI, 1.16-1.29) during the analyzed period. CONCLUSION Patients who undergo spinal surgery have a higher risk for postoperative depression than patients treated for other surgical or medical conditions known to be associated with depression.

Abstract
Background Previous research has suggested a link between antidepressants use and the development of cerebrovascular events, but there has never been any study investigating the risk of stroke in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients treated with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). Methods A retrospective observational cohort study was conducted using data from the National Health Insurance Database of Taiwan between the year of 2001 and 2009. A total of 527 OCD patients with 412 subjects in the SSRI use group and 115 in the non SSRI use group were included. Multivariable Cox proportional-hazards models were used to explore the associations between SSRI use and the occurrence of stroke, controlling for age, gender, concomitant medications, and comorbid medical illnesses. Results A total of nineteen OCD patients were diagnosed with new onset of stroke during the follow-up period including six cases in the SSRI group and thirteen in the non SSRI use group. SSRI use was demonstrated to be associated with a decreased risk of stroke (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.30; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.10–0.86, P = 0.02). The increase in age-related risk of strokes was 2.55 per decade (HR = 2.55; 95% CI = 1.74–3.75, P<0.001). Alternatively, sex, concomitant use of aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and comorbidities with angina pectoris, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia were not found to be associated with an increased risk for stroke in OCD patients. Conclusions Our study showed that SSRI use was associated with decreased risk of stroke in OCD patients. Further investigation into the possible biological mechanisms underlying the relationship between stroke and SSRI use in OCD patients is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous research has suggested a link between typical antipsychotic use and the development of cataracts, but the association between atypical antipsychotics and cataracts remains unclear in schizophrenia (SZ). METHODS A retrospective nested case-control study was conducted using data from the National Health Insurance Database of Taiwan between the year of 2000 and 2011. A total of 2144 SZ patients with cataracts and 2222 controls matched for age, sex, and index date were included. Antipsychotic exposure was categorized by type and duration, and the association between antipsychotic exposure and cataract development was assessed using a conditional logistic regression analysis. RESULTS We found that the severity of physical comorbidities, concurrent antidepressant use, and comorbidity with glaucoma or other retinal disorders were associated with an increased risk for cataract development. Alternatively, we did not find significant associations between continuous use of clozapine, risperidone, paliperidone, ziprasidone, olanzapine, quetiapine, amisulpride, zotepine or aripiprazole and risk of cataract development in SZ patients. CONCLUSIONS We did not detect any association between atypical antipsychotic use and risk of cataract development in SZ patients. Future studies with longitudinal ocular evaluations in patients using atypical antipsychotics are warranted to confirm our findings.

Jeon S, Park H. Effect of Preoperative Education using Multimedia on Pain, Uncertainty, Anxiety and Depression in Hysterectomy Patients. KOREAN JOURNAL OF WOMEN HEALTH NURSING 2016; 22:39-47. [PMID: 37684842 DOI: 10.4069/kjwhn.2016.22.1.39] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2016] [Revised: 03/06/2016] [Accepted: 03/12/2016] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of preoperative education using multimedia on level of pain, uncertainty, anxiety and depression in hysterectomy patients. METHODS A non-equivalent control group, with a pretest-posttest design was used in this study. The level of post operation pain, pre and post operation uncertainty, anxiety and depression of both the groups was measured. The experimental group was provided with preoperative education using multimedia on the preoperative day at the hospital. The control group was only given usual care. Data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN version 22.0 program. RESULTS Experimental group showed lower level of post-operation pain in 1 hour (t=-5.08, p<.001) and 24 hours (t=-5.20, p<.001) but not 48 hours (t=-0.91, p=.368). Uncertainty showed significant interaction effect of Group by Time (F=4.16, p=.018). CONCLUSION Preoperative education using multimedia for patients with hysterectomy would be effective in lowering patients' level of pain, uncertainty, anxiety and depression.
