Cumulative trauma in bipolar disorder: An examination of prevalence and outcomes across the lifespan
2023, Journal of Affective DisordersAssessment of cytokines, microRNA and patient related outcome measures in conversion disorder/functional neurological disorder (CD/FND): The CANDO clinical feasibility study
2021, Brain, Behavior, and Immunity - HealthCitation Excerpt :Actual stress levels as measured by the LCU are strikingly elevated with only 27% of the patients scoring less than 150, which is associated with higher levels of depression (Cornelis et al., 1989), or being in a crisis (Holmes and Rahe, 1967). 30% scored 300 or higher, which is associated with elevated risk for an accident or physical disease (Rahe et al., 1970; Rahe and Arthur, 1978). Such high symptom load and low functioning has also been described in patients with a different kind of CD/FND, namely patients with psychogenic non-epileptic seizures.
Physical activity is positively associated with college students' positive affect regardless of stressful life events during the COVID-19 pandemic
2021, Psychology of Sport and ExerciseCitation Excerpt :Stressful life events was assessed only at T2 (since March 13, 2020) with the Social Readjustment Rating Scale (Holmes & Rahe, 1967). The 43-item assessment is a validated measure of stressful life events (Rahe et al., 1970). Response options were either “yes” or “no”.
Determination of Psychological Stress, Serum Immune Parameters, and Cortisol Levels in Patients With Human Papilloma Virus
2020, Clinical TherapeuticsCitation Excerpt :In 1967, Holmes and Rahe were interviewed using a survey of recent life changes based on Hawkins and Maps. In 1997, Rahe added another 36 new life events and adjusted the LCU values due to lifestyle changes.17 Therefore, RLCQ tracks stress events over the previous year, measuring events in LCUs and contains descriptions of different life events (from a spouse's death to childbirth, financial loans, job loss, and changes in eating habits or sleep, among others).
The effect of 5-HTTLPR and a serotonergic multi-marker score on amygdala, prefrontal and anterior cingulate cortex reactivity and habituation in a large, healthy fMRI cohort
2018, European NeuropsychopharmacologyCitation Excerpt :The tool used to quantify life stress of the last year was the SRRS. While a score below 150 life units is associated with a low risk of suffering a stress related illness, a score of over 300 life units is associated with an 80% risk of developing a stress related illness during the next two years (Rahe et al., 1970). Low stress was reported to be a reason for lack of association between 5-HTTLPR genotype and amygdala activation, however our sample was of moderate life-stress (SRRS mean 284, SD 191), thus we do not expect stress to be responsible for low power in our sample.
