Furthermore, immunization with M. vaccae prevented stress-induced spontaneous colitis and, in stressed mice, induced anxiolytic or fear-reducing effects as measured on the elevated plus-maze, despite stress-induced gut microbiota changes characteristic of gut infection and colitis. Immunization with M. vaccae also prevented stress-induced aggravation of colitis in a model of inflammatory bowel disease. Depletion of regulatory T cells negated protective effects of immunization with M. vaccae on stress-induced colitis and anxiety-like or fear behaviors. These data provide a framework for developing microbiome- and immunoregulation-based strategies for prevention of stress-related pathologies.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 10:26:13 AEST ]]> Psychosocial impact of newly diagnosed advanced breast cancer https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:615 Thu 25 Jul 2013 09:10:22 AEST ]]> Self-reported indicators of psychological health https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:7753 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:41:49 AEDT ]]> Group interpersonal psychotherapy for veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder: a pilot study https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11139 Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:10:28 AEDT ]]> The role of self-blame for trauma as assessed by the posttraumatic cognitions inventory (PTCI): a self-protective cognition? https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5805 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:44:54 AEDT ]]> Introducing Psychological Injury and Law https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40691 Mon 18 Jul 2022 09:56:23 AEST ]]> Combat, posttraumatic stress disorder and health of Australian Vietnam veteran conscripts and volunteers in the three decades after return https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43064 Mon 12 Sep 2022 15:26:36 AEST ]]> Childhood trauma, posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, early maladaptive schemas, and schema modes: a comparison of individuals with obesity and normal weight controls https://ogma.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51548 2 = .51. Follow-up univariate tests revealed that individuals with obesity endorsed significantly more maladaptive schemas and schema modes and significantly less healthy schema modes than individuals with normal weight. In addition, results demonstrated a significant effect of group on childhood trauma and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, V = .19, F(6, 118) = 4.70, p < .001, partial η2 = .19. Subsequent univariate tests and chi-square analyses indicated that individuals with obesity reported significantly more childhood trauma as well as significantly more PTSD symptoms within the last month than normal weight individuals. Conclusion: This was the first study to compare EMS and schema modes in treatment-seeking individuals with obesity and normal weight controls using the short form version 3 of the Young Schema Questionnaire and revised, 118-item, Schema Mode Inventory. Overall, findings revealed that individuals with obesity experience more complex and enduring psychological difficulties than normal weight individuals. Increased assessment and targeted treatment of these underlying mental health concerns may contribute to a more holistic conceptualisation of obesity and could improve the long-term success of weight management.]]> Fri 08 Sep 2023 14:57:55 AEST ]]>
