Journal ArticleDOI

Stress, coping, and circadian disruption among women awaiting breast cancer surgery

TL;DR: Maladaptive psychological responses to breast cancer diagnosis were associated with disruption of circadian rest/activity rhythms, and greater understanding of possible psychosocial effects in cancer-related circadian disruption is needed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essentials of psychotherapeutic intervention for cancer patients.

TL;DR: Results of studies of various psychotherapies include reduction in depression, anxiety, and pain, and improved coping skills, and, in some cases, there is evidence of extended survival times.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predictors of smoking abstinence following a single-session restructuring intervention with self-hypnosis.

TL;DR: It is suggested that it is possible to predict which patients are most likely and which are least likely to respond to such brief smoking cessation interventions, and Hypnotizability and living with a significant other person predicted 2-year maintenance of treatment response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of excess fluid distribution in chronic hemodialysis patients using bioimpedance spectroscopy.

TL;DR: The data suggest that hemodialysis patients carry their excess fluid volume primarily in the extracellular compartment and that bioimpedance spectroscopy coupled with a stable measure of lean tissue such as bone mineral content can determine the degree of relative excess hydration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Click-coated, heparinized, decellularized vascular grafts.

TL;DR: The results suggest that oriented heparin immobilization to decellularized aortas may improve the in vivo blood compatibility of decellularity aorta and vessels.
