clozapine and Low-Back-Pain

Social inequality in medical rehabilitation is receiving increasing attention. The present study examined the impact of the social status on the long-term effectiveness of the pain competence and depression prevention training "Debora" among patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) in an inpatient multidisciplinary rehabilitation.. In general, patients of the lower class showed significantly worse values in depressive symptoms, functional capacity, and subjective work ability compared to the upper class. In addition, positive long-term effects could not be found among patients of the lower class. In contrast, patients of the middle and upper class improved, especially in the IG. Furthermore, only the IG showed long-term improvements in subjective work capacity.. This study confirms the influence of the social status on the psychophysical health. Moreover, social inequality in long-term success of rehabilitation of CLBP was suggested, which could be mediated by health literacy. Therefore, these aspects should be taken into account already in the conception and especially in the application of psychological group trainings in inpatient rehabilitation.. Die soziale Ungleichheit in der medizinischen Rehabilitation findet zunehmend Beachtung. Die vorliegende Studie untersuchte die langfristige Wirksamkeit des Schmerzkompetenz- und Depressionspräventionstrainings Debora bei Rehabilitanden mit chronischen Rückenschmerzen in der stationären verhaltensmedizinisch orthopädischen Rehabilitation (VMO) in Abhängigkeit von der sozialen Lage.. Rehabilitanden der Unterschicht wiesen in der Depressivität, Funktionskapazität und subjektiven Arbeitsfähigkeit generell signifikant schlechtere Werte im Vergleich zur Oberschicht auf. Zudem blieben positive Langzeiteffekte bei Rehabilitanden der Unterschicht eher aus. Dagegen verbesserten sich Rehabilitanden der Mittel- und Oberschicht insbesondere in der IG. Ferner zeigte sich, dass lediglich die IG langfristig in der subjektiven Arbeitsfähigkeit profitierte.. Die Studie belegt den Einfluss der sozialen Lage auf die psychophysische Gesundheit. Ferner wird eine soziale Ungleichheit im langfristigen Rehabilitationserfolg bei chronischen Rückenschmerzen nahegelegt, die durch die Gesundheitskompetenz vermittelt sein könnte. Somit sollten diese Aspekte bereits bei der Konzeption und insbesondere bei der Durchführung von psychologischen Gruppentrainings in der stationären medizinischen Rehabilitation bei chronischen Rückenschmerzen berücksichtigt werden.

The aggregation of psychiatric disorders within families is well-known. The relative role of biological, psychogenic and socialization-related factors varies with the individual case. Another well-known fact is that parents play a very important role in influencing whether their child gets the right treatment when it is necessary. In this paper we highlight the complex links between childhood and adulthood through the presentation of three psychiatric cases. The first story starts with a lactation psychosis of a mother and ends when the daughter who became psychotic at the age of 15 enters adulthood. During these 18 years several psychiatrically relevant episodes happened in the family. During our care, step by step, in relation to emerging psychological problems, the family revealed more and more secrets, explaining past events, and offering a possibility for psychoeducation and psychotherapy. Knowledge concerning the life and psychiatric history of parents, in spite of the fears of the family, largely contributed to evaluating the symptoms of the daughter, reaching a diagnosis, initiating and maintaining therapy and achieving the present balanced state. The next two cases present the stories of two boys with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). One of the children was 6 years old when the family sought professional help, and now he is 11, the other child was 8 years old when the parents sought help and he is 15 now. The two families reacted differently to the offered treatment, but in both cases the family stayed continuously in touch with their child psychiatrists. With these two different stories on ADHD we would like to present several issues and successes which may surface during the long-term treatment of ADHD.
