Effects of Religious Versus Conventional Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy on Gratitude in Major Depression and Chronic Medical Illness
This study examined whether religiously-integrated cognitive behavioral therapy (RCBT) was more effective than conventional CBT (CCBT) on generating gratitude among religious persons with major depressive disorder (MDD) and chronic medical illness (CMI). Participants at least somewhat religious/spiritual with MDD and CMI were randomized to receive 10 sessions of RCBT or CCBT. Both RCBT and CCBT predicted an increase in gratitude over time. Higher…
Inflammation and Coagulation as Mediators in the Relationships Between Religious Attendance and Functional Limitations in Older Adults
Relationships between attendance and function may be due in part to lower levels of inflammation and coagulation among elders who attend services
The Effect of Geriatrics Evaluation and Management on Nursing Home Use and Health Care Costs
BACKGROUND: The Geriatric Evaluation and Management study was developed to assess the impact of a comprehensive geriatric assessment service on the care of the elderly. OBJECTIVES: We sought to evaluate the cost and clinical impact of inpatient units and outpatient clinics for geriatric evaluation and management. RESEARCH DESIGN: We undertook a prospective, randomized, controlled trial using a 2x2 factorial design, with 1-year follow-up. SUBJECTS…
Is the prevalence of dehydration among community-dwelling older adults really low? Informing current debate over the fluid recommendation for adults aged 70+years
Objective The fluid recommendation for adults aged 70+ years has been criticised on the basis of a low prevalence of dehydration in community-dwelling older adults. This study explores whether the low prevalence might reflect limitations of individual dehydration indices. Design Cross-sectional data on plasma sodium, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, glucose and potassium were used to classify 1737 participants of the 1992 Established Popula…
Generalists and Oncologists Show Similar Care Practices and Outcomes for Hospitalized Late-Stage Cancer Patients
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this work was to identify similarities and differences in primary attending physicians' (generalists' versus oncologists') care practices and outcomes for seriously ill hospitalized patients with malignancy. DESIGN: This was a prospective cohort study (SUPPORT project). SETTING: Subjects were recruited from 5 US teaching hospitals; data were gathered from 1989 to 1994. SUBJECTS: Included in the study was a matched samp…
Attendance at Religious Services, Interleukin-6, and other Biological Parameters of Immune Function in Older Adults
OBJECTIVE: First, to examine and explain the relationship between religious service attendance and plasma Interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels, and second, to examine the relationship between religious attendance and other immune-system regulators and inflammatory substances. METHODS: During the third in-person interview (1992) of the Establishment of Populations for Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly (EPESE) project, Duke site, 1718 subjects age sixty-…
