“…The lower depersonalization scores can be interpreted as the caregivers of schizophrenia patients being able to cope with burnout without depersonalization; they might have forced themselves to treat the patients well despite emotional exhaustion, or they could avoid mentioning their depersonalization. As underlined above, there is not much known about depersonalization and our explanations about that dimension are only predictions (22,29,30). Another concept of burnout measured by the MBI is personal accomplishment.…”

Background/aim: To evaluate the burnout of schizophrenia patients' caregivers and to determine the possible relationships between sociodemographic characteristics, symptomatology, perceived social support, and the burnout profile of the caregivers. Materials and methods:Subjects included in the study are 76 schizophrenia patients, diagnosed according to DSM-IV-TR criteria, and their caregivers. A sociodemographic form, the Scale for the Assessment of Positive Symptoms, and the Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms were applied to evaluate the severity of the symptoms. The Maslach Burnout Inventory for Caregivers and the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support were applied to the caregivers of the patients. The collected data were analyzed via Student's t-test, one-way analysis of variance, and Pearson's correlation analysis. Results:The burnout profile of the caregivers was highly correlated with the perceived social support of the caregivers and was also correlated with negative symptoms of the patients. Lower perceived social support was related to all subscales of the Maslach Burnout Inventory. Conclusion:Perceived social support is a major factor for caregiver burnout and it was highly correlated with all subscales in our study. We think that having social support provides caregivers with better feelings and so they provide better help to the patients. Appropriate approaches should be taken to intervene in the social and clinical factors that may exacerbate the burnout process.

“…According to a recent investigation, over 14.1 million new cases and 8.2 million deaths are caused by cancer annually (Siegel, et al,2016). Furthermore, by 2020, the burden of cancer is expected to rise by 50%, due to the rapidly aging population (Popat, et al,2013). To date, the exact pathogenic mechanisms of cancer remain ambiguous.…”

Single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the <i>IL-12</i> gene lead to a higher cancer risk: a meta-analysis based on 22,670 subjects

The associations between interleukin-12 (IL-12) gene polymorphisms and cancer risk have been discussed extensively, with controversial results. Therefore, we conducted the present meta-analysis to better assess the potential roles of IL-12 gene variation in cancer occurrence. Eligible articles were found via PubMed, Medline, EMBASE, Google Scholar and CNKI. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were used to evaluate the associations between IL-12 gene polymorphisms and cancer risk.Thirty-one studies with 10,749 cancer patients and 11,921 healthy subjects were included in the analyses. The overall results showed that cancer risk was increased by IL-12A rs568408 (GG versus GA + AA: P = 0.004; G versus A: P = 0.005) and IL-12B rs3212227 (AA versus AC + CC: P = 0.004; CC versus AA + AC: P = 0.03; A versus C: P = 0.007) polymorphisms. Further subgroup analyses for IL-12A rs568408 and IL-12B rs3212227 revealed that the positive results could be impacted by the ethnicity of the population, cancer type and/or genotyping methods. However, we failed to detect any significant associations between theIL-12A rs2243115 polymorphism and cancer risk in either the overall or the subgroup analyses. The current study suggests that certain IL-12 gene polymorphisms serve as biological 3 markers of cancer susceptibility.
