Analysis of the resilience level and associated factors among patients with lumbar disc herniation

Resilience mediates the influence of hope, optimism, social support, and stress on anxiety severity among Chinese patients with cervical spondylosis

“…Mental resilience is an important and positive psychological resource to adaptively cope with adversity or unpleasant feelings (64). For example, we have previously shown that resilience would produce a significant influence on quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes (65), and anxiety on patients with lumbar disc herniation (66). As shown in another instance, resilience was deemed as a protective factor against negative affect in dialysis patients (67).…”

Associations among resilience, hope, social support, stress, and anxiety severity in Chinese women with abnormal cervical cancer screening results

“…Resilience is an especially significant concept in psychology, and research on resilience is essential for individuals with abnormal screening results because many studies, both descriptive and interventional, show that resilience is associated with people's well-being [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ]. Resilience helps alleviate psychological distress [ 14 ] and anxiety severity [ 15 ] among clinical samples. In contrast, a lack of resilience is closely related to higher psychological disorders [ 16 ].…”

“…Individual resilience is shaped and built on the basis of two crucial factors: individual psychological qualities and the social environment. For example, an increasing number of studies find that hope, social support, and/or perceived stress are closely associated with resilience [ 15 , 18 , 19 , 20 ]. Of these three variables, hope is an important psychological quality, whereas social support and stress are critical social environment factors.…”

Prevalence and risk factors for anxiety and depression among community dwelling patients with cervical spondylosis during the COVID-19 pandemic

“…In line with this, a most recent Brazilian study has also revealed the worsened anxiety and depression symptoms caused by multimorbidity during the COVID-19 pandemic [ 32 ]. Along these lines, we previously showed that comorbid chronic diseases predisposed patients with lumbar herniation disc to low level of resilience [ 56 ], a trans-diagnostic protective factor against mental problems associated with chronic pain [ 57 ]. In addition, people with chronic diseases are prone to adverse psychological reactions due to the fear of the epidemic itself, resulting in the decline of individual physical and mental functions, and eventually depression symptoms [ 58 ].…”
