    Open AccessAleksandrina Skvortsova, Dieuwke S Veldhuijzen et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2023

    OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to investigate whether placebo effect induced by pharmacological conditioning with intranasal insulin can affect glucose, insulin, C-peptide, hunger, and memory in patients with diabetes type 2 and healthy controls. METHODS: Placebo effect was induced by pharmacological conditioning. Thirty-two older patients (mean age = 68.3 years) with diabetes type 2 and age- and sex-matched thirty-two healthy older a…

  • Effectiveness of Human-Supported and Self-Help eHealth Lifestyle Interventions for Patients With Cardiometabolic Risk Factors

    Open AccessTalia Cohen Rodrigues, Talia R Cohen Rodrigues et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2023

    OBJECTIVE: eHealth is a useful tool to deliver lifestyle interventions for patients with cardiometabolic diseases. However, there are inconsistent findings about whether these eHealth interventions should be supported by a human professional, or whether self-help interventions are equally effective. METHODS: Databases were searched between January 1995 and October 2021 for randomized controlled trials on cardiometabolic diseases (cardiovascular d…

  • EHealth to Improve Psychological Functioning and Self-Management of People With Chronic Kidney Disease

    Open AccessCinderella K Cardol, Henriët Van Middendorp et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2023

    OBJECTIVE: Psychological distress is common among patients with chronic kidney disease and can interfere with disease self-management. We assessed the effectiveness of the personalized E-GOAL electronic health care pathway with screening and cognitive-behavioral therapy including self-management support, aimed to treat psychological distress and facilitate self-management among people with chronic kidney disease not on dialysis ( N = 121). METHOD…

  • Do individual psychological characteristics predict induction and generalization of nocebo and placebo effects on pain and itch

    Open AccessLingling Weng, Antoinette I M van Laarhoven et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2022

    The tested psychological characteristics may not play an important role in the induction and generalization of nocebo and placebo effects in healthy individuals. However, firm conclusions cannot be drawn with the current sample. Future studies should validate findings in larger and more diverse samples

  • Integrating Placebo Effects in General Practice

    Open AccessRosanne M Smits, Dieuwke S Veldhuijzen et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2022

    Objectives: Placebo effects, beneficial treatment outcomes due to non-active treatment components, play an important role in the overall treatment response. To facilitate these beneficial effects it is important to explore the perspectives of health care professionals (HCPs) on the integration of placebo effects in clinical care. Three themes were investigated: knowledge about placebo effects and factors that contribute to these, frequency of pla…

  • Antipruritic Placebo Effects by Conditioning H1-antihistamine

    Open AccessStefanie H Meeuwis, Henriët Van Middendorp et al.ARTICLEPsychosomatic Medicine2019

    OBJECTIVE: Allergic rhinitis symptoms can be reduced by behaviorally conditioning antihistamine. It is unclear whether these findings extend to histamine-induced itch or work when participants are informed about the conditioning procedure (open-label conditioning). The current study aims to investigate the efficacy of (open-label) antipruritic behavioral conditioning for histamine-induced itch. METHODS: Healthy participants (n = 92; 84% female) w…

  • Effects of Open- and Closed-Label Nocebo and Placebo Suggestions on Itch and Itch Expectations

    Open AccessStefanie H Meeuwis, Henriët Van Middendorp et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Psychiatry2019

    Placebo and nocebo effects have been shown to influence subjective symptoms such as itch. These effects can be induced by influencing outcome expectations through, for example, combining the application of an inert substance (e.g., a cream) with verbal suggestions on the anticipated effects of this substance. Interestingly, placebo effects also occur when it is known that a treatment is inert (i.e., open-label placebo). However, no study to date …
