Predicting Cancer from Depression: A Systematic Review of Prospective Studies
Authors: Deepa K Damodaran  , Varghese Paul K  
Published: December 2021

Past research has proposed depression as a risk factor for developing cancer. Because results of previous prospective epidemiological investigations are found to be conflicting and inconclusive, the current review evaluates the substantiation of cancer resulting from depression by reviewing prospective cohort studies. Identified studies, through a sensitive search strategy with the help of keywords, from Medline and Embase were retrieved as per the developed protocol and the PRISMA 2009 recommendations. The screening for the relevance of studies and the entire process of selection was done with criteria. A validated checklist ensured methodological quality whereas accuracy was made certain by double-data extraction technique. Results suggest a possible causal link between depression and the risk of cancer. When chronic and severe depression predicted greater risk of cancer, findings are inconclusive on the link between less severe depression and cancer. With the high prevalence of mood disorders, this review draws the attention towards a common biological pathway linking depression and cancer. This also highlights the necessity to discover means to control it, and hints the toxic effect of depression on risk factors in elevating the risk of cancer. Research and clinical implications are also dealt.

Authors: A. Gomathi  , Dr. K.V. Krishna  
Published: December 2021

The study explored various functions of the brain or hemisphere lateralization and it relevance to learning style and education namely how it relates to other style constructs (visual, Aural, verbal, physical, logical, social and solitary), gender and department stream how these are likely to impact upon learning in educational setting. Generally learning style can be described as a set of factors, behaviors, and attitudes that facilitate learning for an individual in a given situation. Students learn differently from each other and it has been determined that brain structure influences language structure acquisition. It has also been shown that different hemispheres of the brain contain different perception. The implications of these finding for the assessment of brain lateralization and their learning style preferences are discussed.

An assessment of individuals in this field is warranted for screening of minor psychiatric disorders which impedes their quality of life, adversely affects the patients being treated and adds to the burden of health care costs. Aims and Objectives: 1. To assess psychiatric morbidity in the different group of health professionals. 2. To compare psychiatric morbidity in government and private set up. Materials and Method: A sample of 448 health professionals completed the GHQ-28 which comprised of 64 dentists, 64 medicine & allied group, 85 surgery & allied group, 88 pre and Para clinical group , 71 nursing group and 76 medical officers(MO) and program officers(PO) group . Descriptive statistics was used. Frequencies and percentages were calculated and Chi square test was applied to find significant relationship between the variables. Results: Psychiatric morbidity defined as ‘caseness’ was present in 41.1% of the sample. The morbidity was maximum in the age group 25-30 (45%) and more among females (45.6%). The group of MO & PO reported highest distress (51.3%) while lowest was reported in the pre and paraclinical group (23.9%). Higher ‘caseness’ was reported in the government sector (45.8%). The relationship between ‘caseness’ and occupation was found to be statistically significant. Conclusion: The Medical officer & Program officer group and nursing group suffer from greater degree of morbidity probably due to increased workload and working environment. Further studies with larger sample are required to assess significant relation between gender and sector of work with psychiatric morbidity.

Authors: Remita Chattopadhyay  , Dr Anuradha Sharma  
Published: December 2021

Care giving itself is a self rewarding task; however it is often associated with physical, emotional, social, financial burden (Chadda, 2014) especially in cases of chronic or terminal illness. But not much of the studies have focused on the internal triggers like negative affectivity and social inhibition characterized by Type D Personality to assess burden among the caregivers. This cross sectional study examines the correlation between Type-D personality and the burden experienced by the caregivers of neurological patients.110 primary caregivers were assessed using DS14 and Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) whose family members were suffering from neurological illness at least for past 3 months. Data analysis showed a high amount of burden experienced by primary caregivers of neurological illness of Type D personality in males as well females (p< 0.01) and further statistical analysis revealed a significant positive correlation between burden experienced and presence of Social Inhibition and Negative affectivity among males as well female primary caregivers of neurological patients (p< 0.05). But no significant difference was found between male and female caregiver burden and male female caregivers with Type D personality (p<0.05). Therefore it is important to develop screening, assessment and intervention strategies for Type D personality individuals especially for primary caregivers, healthcare professionals, employees in organizations to protect them against burnout or developing any chronic illness.

UNITY OF MATERIAL AND SPIRITUAL IN THE LIGHT OF COEVOLUTION
Authors: Некрасова Нина Андреевна , Некрасов Сергей Иванович 
Published: December 2021

Целью статьи является анализ обоснование необходимости пересмотра одностороннего представления о взаимодействии духа и материи, бытия и сознания. Основным методом исследования является диалектический анализ взаимосвязи и неразрывного единства противоположных начал человеческого бытия (материи и духа). Результатом исследования является попытка доказать, что материя и дух образуют живую материально-духовную действительность, единую непротиворечивую субстанцию, которая не нуждается в другом основании как условии своего существования, а выступает своей собственной основой. Заслуга авторов состоит в доказательстве того, что существует единая субстанция, - духоматерия, которая содержит в себе и материальную действительность, и потенциально заложенную в ней духовную деятельность человека как естественно развивающуюся область мироздания, заключающую в себе всё многообразие социально-духовного бытия человека, ибо человек как материальное явление, так и его духовность - это результат развития единой всеобщей космической субстанции мироздания - духоматерии. Теоретическая и практическая значимость статьи содержится в попытке доказать не просто взаимосвязь материального и духовного начал, но определить основы взаимодействия этих начал как двух сторон единой космической субстанции мироздания и их диалектического взаимоперехода на разных этапах конкретных форм существования. Авторам удалось углубить предложенную проблематику, что может быть использовано для дальнейшего теоретического анализа проблемы.
The purpose of the article is to analyze the substantiation of the need to revise the onesided idea of the interaction of spirit and matter, being and consciousness. The main research method is the dialectical analysis of the relationship and indissoluble unity of the opposite principles of human existence (matter and spirit). The result of the study is an attempt to prove that matter and spirit form a living material-spiritual reality, a single consistent substance that does not need another basis as a condition for its existence, but acts as its own basis. The merit of this approach consists in proving that there is a single substance - spirit-matter, which contains both material reality and the potential spiritual activity of a person embedded in it as a naturally developing area of the universe, containing all the diversity of social and spiritual life of a person, for a person as a material both the phenomenon and its spirituality are the result of the development of a single universal cosmic substance of the universe - spirit matter. The theoretical and practical significance of the article is presented in an attempt to prove not just the relationship between material and spiritual principles, but to determine the basis of the interaction of these principles as two sides of a single cosmic substance of the universe and their dialectical transition at different stages of specific forms of existence. The outlined conclusions should lead to further theoretical analysis of this problem.
