relationships of diabetes specific Emotional Distress depression anxiety and overall well being with hba1c in adult persons with type 1 diabetes
Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 2014Co-Authors: Tore Wentzellarsen, Berit Rokne, Marit Graue, Ragnhild Bjarkoy Strandberg, Mark PeyrotAbstract:Abstract Objective Emotional problems are common in adults with diabetes, and knowledge about how different indicators of Emotional problems are related with glycemic control is required. The aim was to examine the relationships of diabetes-specific Emotional Distress, depression, anxiety, and overall well-being with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c ). Methods Of the 319 adults with type 1 diabetes attending the endocrinology outpatient clinic at a university hospital in Norway, 235 (74%) completed the Diabetes Distress Scale, the Problem Areas in Diabetes Survey, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the World Health Organization-Five Well-Being Index. Blood samples were taken at the time of data collection to determine HbA 1c . Regression analyses examined associations of diabetes-specific Emotional Distress, anxiety, depression, and overall well-being with HbA 1c . The relationship between diabetes-specific Emotional Distress and HbA 1c was tested for nonlinearity. Results Diabetes-specific Emotional Distress was related to glycemic control (DDS total: unstandardized coefficient = 0.038, P P = .007), but depression, anxiety, and overall well-being were not. On the DDS, only regimen-related Distress was independently related to HbA 1c (coefficient = 0.056, P 1c . No significant nonlinearity was detected in the relationship between diabetes-specific Distress and HbA 1c . Conclusions To stimulate adequate care strategies, health personnel should acknowledge depression and diabetes-specific Emotional Distress as different conditions in clinical consultations. Addressing diabetes-specific Emotional Distress, in particular regimen Distress, in clinical consultation might improve glycemic control.

perceived family burden and Emotional Distress similarities and differences between mothers and fathers of children with type 1 diabetes in a population based study
Pediatric Diabetes, 2011Co-Authors: Anne Haugstvedt, Tore Wentzellarsen, Berit Rokne, Marit GraueAbstract:Background Parenting children with diabetes entail an extra burden for the families. More information is needed about associations between perceived family burden and Emotional Distress in both mothers and fathers. Objective To analyze (i) perceived burden and Emotional Distress in mothers and fathers of children with type 1 diabetes and (ii) associations between parental burden and Distress and factors related to the child. Methods Mothers (n = 103) and fathers (n = 97) of 115 children (1-15 yr) with type 1 diabetes participated in this population-based survey. The parents completed the Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 items (HSCL-25), measuring Emotional Distress, and the Family Burden Scale, which includes five questions measuring perceived family burden related to the child's diabetes. Results Both mothers and fathers reported that the greatest burden was related to long-term health concerns. The mothers reported a significantly greater burden related to medical treatment and significantly more Emotional Distress than the fathers. The mothers' perceived burden was significantly correlated with Emotional Distress. Nighttime blood glucose measurements were significantly associated with perceived parental burden, and experienced nocturnal hypoglycemia was significantly associated with parental Emotional Distress. Conclusions The higher perceived burden related to medical treatment, the more Emotional Distress, and the correlations between burdens and Emotional Distress in mothers vs. fathers emphasize the importance of discussing both parents' roles and responsibilities in relation to the child's diabetes in follow-up. In the consultations, emphasizing nighttime caregiving and nocturnal hypoglycemia might also be important to prevent Emotional Distress.

stress social support and Emotional Distress in a community sample of pregnant women
Journal of Psychosomatic Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2004Co-Authors: Richard H Glazier, Frank J Elgar, V Goel, Stephen HolzapfelAbstract:Emotional Distress in women during pregnancy has been shown to increase the risk of adverse outcomes for women and newborns. Increasingly, assessment and management of mood and anxiety problems during pregnancy entail consideration of life stress and interpersonal relationships with partners, friends, and family members. This study describes cross-sectional relations between life stress, perceived social support, and symptoms of depression and anxiety as well as the mediating influence of social support on relations between stress and symptoms. A community sample of women (N = 2,052) provided self-report data during their second trimester of pregnancy. Empirical fit was found for a structural equation model that depicted the combined influences of sociodemographic factors (i.e., socioeconomic status, age, parity), stress (partner conflict and life events), and social support on symptoms of depression and anxiety, w 2 (df 51) = 310.65, p 5 .05; CFI = .91. Women who reported low levels of social support showed stronger relations between stress and symptoms than women who reported high levels of social support – indicative of a mediating effect of social support. Consistent with previous studies, results suggest that dyadic psychosocial assessment of pregnant women and their partners may facilitate interventions to augment support networks, thereby reducing the risk of Emotional Distress.

Emotional Distress in young adults during the covid 19 pandemic evidence of risk and resilience from a longitudinal cohort study
Psychological Medicine, 2020Co-Authors: Lilly Shanahan, Annekatrin Steinhoff, Laura Bechtiger, Aja Louise Murray, Amy Nivette, Urs Hepp, Denis Ribeaud, Manuel EisnerAbstract:Background The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and associated lockdown could be considered a 'perfect storm' for increases in Emotional Distress. Such increases can only be identified by studies that use data collected before and during the pandemic. Longitudinal data are also needed to examine (1) the roles of previous Distress and stressors in Emotional Distress during the pandemic and (2) how COVID-19-related stressors and coping strategies are associated with Emotional Distress when pre-pandemic Distress is accounted for. Methods Data came from a cohort study (N = 768). Emotional Distress (perceived stress, internalizing symptoms, and anger), COVID-19-related stressors, and coping strategies were measured during the pandemic/lockdown when participants were aged 22. Previous Distress and stressors were measured before COVID-19 (at age 20). Results On average, participants showed increased levels of perceived stress and anger (but not internalizing symptoms) during the pandemic compared to before. Pre-COVID-19 Emotional Distress was the strongest predictor of during-pandemic Emotional Distress, followed by during-pandemic economic and psychosocial stressors (e.g. lifestyle and economic disruptions) and hopelessness, and pre-pandemic social stressors (e.g. bullying victimization and stressful life events). Most health risks to self or loved ones due to COVID-19 were not uniquely associated with Emotional Distress in final models. Coping strategies associated with reduced Distress included keeping a daily routine, physical activity, and positive reappraisal/reframing. Conclusions In our community sample, pre-pandemic Distress, secondary consequences of the pandemic (e.g. lifestyle and economic disruptions), and pre-pandemic social stressors were more consistently associated with young adults' Emotional Distress than COVID-19-related health risk exposures.

mode of delivery and postpartum Emotional Distress a cohort study of 55 814 women
British Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 2012Co-Authors: Samantha S Adams, Malin Eberhardgran, A R Sandvik, Anne EskildAbstract:Please cite this paper as: Adams S, Eberhard-Gran M, Sandvik A, Eskild A. Mode of delivery and postpartum Emotional Distress: a cohort study of 55 814 women. BJOG 2011; DOI: 10.1111/j.1471-0528.2011.03188.x Objective To assess the association between mode of delivery and maternal postpartum Emotional Distress. Design A prospective study of women from 30 weeks of gestation to 6 months postpartum. Setting Pregnant women in Norway during the period 1998–2008. Population A total of 55 814 women from the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study. Methods Emotional Distress was reported in a short form of the Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 (SCL-8) at 30 weeks of gestation and at 6 months postpartum. Information on mode of delivery was obtained from the Medical Birth Registry of Norway. Main outcome measures Changes in SCL-8 score from 30 weeks of gestation to 6 months postpartum and presence of Emotional Distress at 6 months postpartum. Results Women with instrumental vaginal, emergency caesarean or elective caesarean deliveries had similar changes in SCL-8 score between 30 weeks of gestation and 6 months postpartum, as compared with women with unassisted vaginal delivery (adjusted regression coefficient, 0.00, 95% CI –0.01 to 0.01; 0.01, 95% CI 0.00−0.02; and −0.01, 95% CI −0.02 to 0.00, respectively). The corresponding odds ratios (ORs) associated with the presence of Emotional Distress at 6 months postpartum (SCL-8 ≥ 2.0) were: OR 1.01, 95% CI 0.86−1.18; OR 1.13, 95% CI 0.97−1.32; and OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.79−1.16, respectively. These estimates were adjusted for Emotional Distress during pregnancy and other potential confounding factors. Emotional Distress during pregnancy showed the strongest association with the presence of Emotional Distress at 6 months postpartum (adjusted OR 14.09, 95% CI 12.77−15.55). Conclusions Mode of delivery was not associated with a change in SCL-8 score from 30 weeks of gestation to 6 months postpartum or with the presence of Emotional Distress postpartum.

partner relationship satisfaction and maternal Emotional Distress in early pregnancy
BMC Public Health, 2011Co-Authors: Gunmette B Rosand, Kari Slinning, Malin Eberhardgran, Espen Røysamb, Kristian TambsAbstract:Recognition of maternal Emotional Distress during pregnancy and the identification of risk factors for this Distress are of considerable clinical- and public health importance. The mental health of the mother is important both for herself, and for the physical and psychological health of her children and the welfare of the family. The first aim of the present study was to identify risk factors for maternal Emotional Distress during pregnancy with special focus on partner relationship satisfaction. The second aim was to assess interaction effects between relationship satisfaction and the main predictors. Pregnant women enrolled in the Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study (n = 51,558) completed a questionnaire with questions about maternal Emotional Distress, relationship satisfaction, and other risk factors. Associations between 37 predictor variables and Emotional Distress were estimated by multiple linear regression analysis. Relationship dissatisfaction was the strongest predictor of maternal Emotional Distress (β = 0.25). Other predictors were dissatisfaction at work (β = 0.11), somatic disease (β = 0.11), work related stress (β = 0.10) and maternal alcohol problems in the preceding year (β = 0.09). Relationship satisfaction appeared to buffer the effects of frequent moving, somatic disease, maternal smoking, family income, irregular working hours, dissatisfaction at work, work stress, and mother's sick leave (P < 0.05). Dissatisfaction with the partner relationship is a significant predictor of maternal Emotional Distress in pregnancy. A good partner relationship can have a protective effect against some stressors.
