  • Altered Brain Structure and Functional Connectivity and Its Relation to Pain Perception in Girls With Irritable Bowel Syndrome

    Ravi R Bhatt, Arpana Gupta et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2019

    OBJECTIVE: Imaging studies in adults with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) have shown both morphological and resting state (RS) functional connectivity (FC) alterations related to cortical modulation of sensory processing. Because analogous differences have not been adequately investigated in children, this study compared gray matter volume (GMV) and RS-FC between girls with IBS and healthy controls (HC) and tested the correlation between brain met…

  • Brain Structure and Response to Emotional Stimuli as Related to Gut Microbial Profiles in Healthy Women

    Kirsten Tillisch, Emeran A Mayer et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2017

    OBJECTIVE: Brain-gut-microbiota interactions may play an important role in human health and behavior. Although rodent models have demonstrated effects of the gut microbiota on emotional, nociceptive, and social behaviors, there is little translational human evidence to date. In this study, we identify brain and behavioral characteristics of healthy women clustered by gut microbiota profiles. METHODS: Forty women supplied fecal samples for 16S rRN…

  • Surgically Induced Changes in Gut Microbiome and Hedonic Eating as Related to Weight Loss

    Open AccessClaudia P Sanmiguel, Jonathan Jacobs et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2017

    OBJECTIVE: Weight loss surgery results in significant changes in the anatomy, function, and intraluminal environment of the gastrointestinal tract affecting the gut microbiome. Although bariatric surgery results in sustained weight loss, decreased appetite, and hedonic eating, it is unknown whether the surgery-induced alterations in gut microbiota play a role in the observed changes in hedonic eating. We explored the following hypotheses: (1) lap…

  • Early Adverse Life Events and Resting State Neural Networks in Patients With Chronic Abdominal Pain

    Open AccessArpana Gupta, Lisa A Kilpatrick et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2014

    BACKGROUND: Early adverse life events (EALs) and sex have been identified as vulnerability factors for the development of several stress-sensitive disorders, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). We aimed to identify disease and sex-based differences in resting state (RS) connectivity associated with EALs in individuals with IBS. METHOD: A history of EALs before age 18 years was assessed using the early trauma inventory. RS functional magneti…

  • A meta‐analytic study

    Arpana Gupta, Frederick T L Leong et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Orthopsychiatry2013References: 67

    Acculturation is an important and popular cultural research variable among specific ethnic populations that is used to explain the process of assimilating into the host culture. Acculturation has often been used to account for psychosocial changes and health outcomes and has been used to explain health disparities among ethnic groups. Using Asian Americans as an illustrative ethnic group, the authors see that researchers have highlighted the infl…

  • Attitudes toward professional counseling among Asian-American college students

    Frederick T L Leong, Helen H W Kim et al.ARTICLEAsian American Journal of…2011

    The present study attempted to examine the influence of culture-bound barriers such as acculturation status, loss of face, and conception of mental health on the attitudes of Asian American college students (n = 134) toward seeking professional psychological help. An adapted Acculturation Attitude S

  • Examining the relationship between multiple internalized oppressions and African American lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning persons' self-esteem and psychological distress.

    Dawn M Szymanski, Arpana GuptaARTICLEJournal of Counseling Psychology2009

    Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning (LGBQ) persons come from diverse cultural groups with diverse racial and ethnic identities. However, most research on LGBQ persons has used primarily White samples, and most research on African Americans has used largely heterosexual samples. Thus, research has largely failed to attend to and investigate the complexity of African American LGBQ persons' experiences. This study examined the relations between …

    Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning (LGBQ) persons come from diverse cultural groups with diverse racial and ethnic identities. However, research examining correlates of oppression among sexual minority persons has used primarily White samples and has failed to attend to and investigate the complexity of Asian American LGBQ persons’ experiences. This study examined the relations between multiple external and internalized oppressions and Asian…
