“…Optimism is partially heritable [ 18 ], but also influenced by social structural factors [ 19 ]. Several randomized trials have suggested that cognitive behavioral therapy can modify optimism and improve quality of life [ 20 – 25 ]. Nevertheless, the assessment of optimism in clinical practice is uncommon, but represents a potential clinical intervention point for cognitive behavioral therapy to improve outcomes in chronic respiratory diseases.…”

Background Optimism is the general belief that good things will occur in the future; optimism is modifiable by cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Previous studies have associated higher optimism with improved health outcomes and lower all-cause mortality. Research question Investigate association between optimism and disease-related characteristics in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Study design and methods Current and former smokers with/without COPD and Preserved Ratio Impaired Spirometry (PRISm) from the 10-year follow-up visit for the Genetic Epidemiology of COPD (COPDGene) study were included. Optimism was assessed at the 10-year visit using the Life Orientation Test-Revised. Models of optimism as a predictor of lung function, COPD-associated phenotypes including exacerbations, and functional assessments, were adjusted for demographic confounders, smoking status, and comorbidities. Results Among 1967 subjects, higher optimism was significantly associated with older age, non-Hispanic white race, marital status, quitting smoking status, absence of COPD, and absence of depression. In multivariable analysis, higher optimism was independently associated with fewer prior exacerbations of COPD (coef = − 0.037, P < 0.001). Higher optimism was also related to better MMRC scores (coef = − 0.041, P < 0.001), CAT scores (coef = − 0.391, P < 0.001), SGRQ scores (coef = − 0.958, P < 0.001), BODE index (coef = − 0.059, P < 0.001), and longer 6-min walk distance (coef = 10.227, P < 0.001). After stratification by severity of COPD, these associations with optimism were still significant in all groups. No significant association was observed for cross-sectional FEV1 (%) or FVC (%) with optimism score. Interpretation Fewer exacerbations and less severe respiratory symptoms and higher functional capacity were associated with higher optimism, which may impact health outcomes in current and former smokers with and without COPD. Optimism is a modifiable trait and these results may further support a role for CBT to improve outcomes in COPD.

“…The data analysis of our study demonstrated that the intervention has been effective in improving the general psychological health of the participants. Although few studies have evaluated the effectiveness of CBT-I and CBGT-I in general psychological health, there are many studies that show CBT and CBGT are effective in improving general psychological health (Henriksson et al, 2016;Sohn et al, 2018). It seems that improving negative psychological symptoms such as depression and reducing individual stress can lead to increased hope and improves one's attitude towards illness, future and self; as a result, the person will feel more satisfied and relaxed.…”

Background: Given the many complications of drug therapy, it seems reasonable to use non-pharmacological therapies that can improve mental and physical disorders in haemodialysis patients. Aims: This study aims to determine the effectiveness of cognitive behavioural group therapy for insomnia (CBGT-I) in sleep quality, depression, anxiety and general psychological health of haemodialysis patients. Method: This randomized clinical trial was conducted on 116 haemodialysis patients who were randomly assigned to experimental (n=58) and control (n=58) groups. In the experimental group, CBGT-I was provided during nine weekly sessions. Data collection tools included Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDIII), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-28), Clinical Global Improvement Scale (CGI), Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ) and Working Alliance Inventory-Short Form (WAI-S). Data were analysed by SPSS-25 and p<.05 was considered significant. Results: The findings demonstrated that CBGT-I compared with control group was effective in improving sleep quality (p<.001, η2=.790), depression (p<.001, η2=.616), anxiety (p<.001, η2=.682) and general psychological health (p<.001, η2=.871). Participants of CBGT-I showed notable improvements as a result of the treatment, were satisfied with treatment, and had a good therapeutic relationship. Conclusions: CBGT-I is effective in reducing depression and anxiety in addition to improving sleep quality and general psychological health in haemodialysis patients. Therefore, it is recommended to be used as a complementary treatment for these patients.
