46. Seelische Belastung bei Menschen mit umweltbezogenen Störungen: Ein Vergleich zwischen Selbstbild und Fremdeinschätzung

Author

Brand, S., Heller, P., Huss, A., Bircher, A., Braun-Fahrländer, C., Niederer, M., Schwarzenbach, S., Waeber, R., Wegmann, L., and Küchenhoff, J.

Abstract

Zusammenfassung: Umweltbezogene Gesundheitsstörungen stellen wissenschaftlich und klinisch ein diagnostisches und therapeutisches Konfliktfeld dar. Ein hoher subjektiver Leidensdruck, ein somatisches Krankheitsmodell sowie das Festhalten an einer Umweltursache gefährden die therapeutische Beziehung, wenn die Krankheitsmodelle von Arzt und Patient nicht übereinstimmen. Unsere Untersuchung greift diese empirisch noch kaum erforschte Diskrepanz auf, indem sie die Selbsteinschätzung von Patienten mit umweltbezogenen Krankheitsstörungen (n=61) systematisch der Fremdeinschätzung durch ein multidisziplinäres Expertenteam gegenüberstellt. Die Resultate weisen darauf hin, dass in Selbst- und Fremdeinschätzung psychisch unauffällige Probanden wenig psychiatrische Störungen zeigen, über stabile psychische Strukturen verfügen und v.a. unter umweltbedingten oder medizinischen Ursachen leiden. Wenn Selbst- und Fremdeinschätzung beide eine psychische Auffälligkeit beschreiben, sind entsprechend psychiatrische Störungen gehäuft, psychische Strukturen labil, und die Beschwerden werden psychiatrisch verursacht. Divergieren Selbst- und Fremdeinschätzung, erlaubt die Fremdeinschätzung akkuratere Aussagen bezüglich der psychiatrischen Diagnosen, der innerpsychischen Struktur und der Ursachenzuschreibung

48. Weight-bearing bones are more sensitive to physical exercise in boys than in girls during pre- and early puberty: a cross-sectional study

Abstract

Summary: We carried out a cross-section study of the sex-specific relationship between bone mineral content and physical activity at sites with different loading in pre- and early pubertal girls and boys. There was significant sensitivity of bone mineral content of the hip to physical exercise in boys, but not in girls. Background: Since little is known whether there are sex differences in sensitivity of bone to loading, we investigated sex differences in the cross-sectional association between measures of physical activity (PA) and bone mass and size in pre- and early pubertal children of both sexes. Methods: We measured bone mineral content/density (BMC/BMD) and fat-free mass (FFM) in 269 6- to 13-year-old children from randomly selected schools by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Physical activity (PA) was measured by accelerometers and lower extremity strength by a jump-and-reach test. Results: Boys (n = 128) had higher hip and total body BMC and BMD, higher FFM, higher muscle strength and were more physically active than girls (n = 141). Total hip BMC was positively associated with time spent in total and vigorous PA in boys (r = 0.20-0.33, p < 0.01), but not in girls (r = 0.02-0.04, p=ns), even after adjusting for FFM and strength. While boys and girls in the lowest tertile of vigorous PA (22min/day) did not differ in hip BMC (15.62 vs 15.52g), boys in the highest tertile (72min/day) had significantly higher values than the corresponding girls (16.84 vs 15.71g, p < 0.05). Conclusions: Sex differences in BMC during pre- and early puberty may be related to a different sensitivity of bone to physical loading, irrespective of muscle mass

49. Reduced cardiorespiratory fitness, low physical activity and an urban environment are independently associated with increased cardiovascular risk in children

Abstract

Aims/hypothesis: To assist in the development of preventive strategies, we studied whether the neighbourhood environment or modifiable behavioural parameters, including cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) and physical activity (PA), are independently associated with obesity and metabolic risk markers in children. Methods: We carried out a cross-sectional analysis of 502 randomly selected first and fifth grade urban and rural Swiss schoolchildren with regard to CRF, PA and the neighbourhood (rural vs urban) environment. Outcome measures included BMI, sum of four skinfold thicknesses, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and a standardised clustered metabolic risk score. Results: CRF and PA (especially total PA, but also the time spent engaged in light and in moderate and vigorous intensity PA) were inversely associated with measures of obesity, HOMA-IR and the metabolic risk score, independently of each other, and of sociodemographic and nutritional parameters, media use, sleep duration, BMI and the neighbourhood environment (all p < 0.05). Children living in a rural environment were more physically active and had higher CRF values and reduced HOMA-IR and metabolic risk scores compared with children living in an urban environment (all p < 0.05). These differences in cardiovascular risk factors persisted after adjustment for CRF, total PA and BMI. Conclusions/interpretation: Reduced CRF, low PA and an urban environment are independently associated with an increase in metabolic risk markers in children. Trial registration: isrctn.org 15360785 Funding: The study was funded by the Federal office of Sports (Magglingen, Switzerland), the Swiss National Science Foundation (grant nos 3234-069271 and PMPDB-114401) and the Diabetes Foundation of the Region of Basel

Abstract

Background. Physical inactivity increases the risk of many chronic disorders. It is not clear which strategies are the most appropriate to enable people to adopt a more active lifestyle. Randomized controlled trials have found that brief advice from GPs supported by written material had a significant positive effect on patient's physical activity. The pilot project ‘Move for Health and the Environment' translated this evidence into a program suitable for the real-life situation of busy practices. The aim of this study was to evaluate the change in physical activity level of the participating patients 1 year after the intervention. Methods. Patients aged 16-65 years completed a screening questionnaire before consultation with their physician. Insufficiently active patients were offered an information leaflet and a voucher for a physical activity counselling session. One year later, all inactive patients and a random selection of the active were re-contacted and invited to answer identical questions. Results. A total of 1239 (73.9%) returned the follow-up questionnaire. In all, 37.3% of the formerly inactive patients met the threshold of sufficient activity at follow-up, whereas 20.3% of the previously active no longer did. Formerly inactive patients reported an increase of 58.8 minutes/week of moderate and 34.6 minutes/week of vigorous activity and spending more time walking and cycling. Formerly active patients reported less time spent in moderate activities. Conclusions. Systematic counselling in primary care encouraged insufficiently active patients to adopt a more active lifestyle. Yet it became evident that active patients also need counselling to maintain their activity levels
