Abstract
Diferentes modelos de cuidado en contexto de cronicidad y multimorbilidad incorporan a la comunidad, sistema de salud, práctica clínica, políticas sanitarias, prevención y promoción de salud. Entre estos se señala el rol facilitador del equipo de salud en el automanejo, siendo las personas protagonistas de su proceso. El abordaje de la multimorbilidad se realiza mayormente desde un enfoque centrado en el riesgo y la enfermedad, limitando la exploración de los recursos de las personas y su entorno. Incorporar un enfoque de salud positiva puede aportar a una mayor integralidad. El propósito de este artículo es proponer un abordaje desde el modelo sinérgico de salud, integrando la salutogénesis y el modelo de activos, para facilitar el automanejo promoviendo la capacidad de agencia de las personas. Se presentan potenciales áreas de aplicación de estos modelos en el contexto de multimorbilidad, fomentando condiciones de salud y bienestar en las personas y sus familias.

Abstract
Mantener un adecuado control de la diabetes se relaciona con variables como autocuidado y sentido de coherencia que reducen las tasas de morbilidad y mortalidad. El objetivo fue evaluar el efecto mediador del sentido de coherencia en la relación entre autocuidado y niveles de glucosa en sangre de personas con diabetes. A 220 sujetos con diabetes mellitus tipo 2 se les aplicó un instrumento para autocuidado y otro para sentido de coherencia, mientras que la hemoglobina glucosilada se obtuvo del expediente médico, posteriormente se analizaron los datos por medio de un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales. Los resultados muestran que tanto el autocuidado ( c’ = −0.33; p < 0.05), como el sentido de coherencia ( b = −0.34; p < 0.05) tienen un efecto directo sobre los niveles de glucosa, así como también un efecto indirecto significativo (−0.168; p < 0.05). El efecto total de AC sobre A1c corresponde a −0.498. En consecuencia, este modelo estimado corresponde a un modelo de mediación simple parcial. Los resultados confirman la hipótesis de que el sentido de coherencia en personas con diabetes media la relación entre AC y HbA1c. El enfoque salutogénico mejora la adherencia a las conductas de autocuidado, lo que puede facilitar el control glucémico de la enfermedad.

Abstract
AIMS This research is conducted to determine the effect of salutogenesis-based home care on the sense of coherence in patients with peritoneal dialysis. BACKGROUND Recent studies on the salutogenesis model have shown that the model is effective in promoting and improving health. It was observed that studies based on the salutogenesis model were carried out in the form of a training programme, and there was no study that shows its effectiveness on patient care by integrating it into the nursing process. DESIGN The research is conducted as a pre-test-post-test control group experimental study. METHODS The study included 73 patients, including 36 in the intervention group and 37 in the control group. The research data are collected using the Patient Identifier Information Form, Dialysis Symptom Index (DSI), General Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and the Sense of Coherence Scale (SIS). The intervention group is provided care based on the salutogenesis model by making home visits 1 time per week for 8 weeks. In this study, the TREND checklist was followed for non-randomised controlled trials. RESULTS In the study, the pre-test DSI, GSES and SIS (meaningfulness, comprehensibility, manageability sub-dimension) mean scores of the individuals in the intervention and control groups are similar. The third-month and sixth-month intervention group SIS total and sub-dimension scores and GSES scores are found to be statistically significantly higher than the scores of the control group. CONCLUSIONS As a result of the study, it is determined that the care based on the salutogenesis model provided to peritoneal dialysis patients increases the sense of coherence and self-efficacy and provides symptom control and decreases the dialysis symptoms. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE It has been observed that the salutogenesis model can be used as a step of nursing care in providing symptom control by strengthening the self-efficacy of patients in clinical and home care.

Abstract
AIM Cancer is one of the most important chronic diseases which affects caregivers. Therefore, in this study, we decided to increase the self-efficacy and sense of coherence of caregivers by using virtual learning via mobile to increase the power of managing in such situations. METHODS This study is a clinical trial performed on 60 caregivers of cancer patients. Questionnaires of demographic information, Bandura self-efficacy, and Antonovsky's sense of coherence were completed for both intervention and control groups. Then, for the intervention group, a virtual educational intervention was performed daily for 1 month using the mobile phones, and for the control group, no intervention was performed. RESULTS The mean score of self-efficacy in the intervention group was (18.09±93.21) before and (135.12±11.14) after the intervention, which was statistically significant (P=0.001). While in the control group, this means was (84.71±18.55) before and (84.75±17.13) after the study, but this difference was not statistically significant (P=0.2). Also, the mean score of sense of coherence in the intervention group was (73.25±7.28) before and (89.11±7.11) after the intervention, which was statistically significant (P=0.001). While in the control group, this means was (76.42±7.45) before and (76.89±7.27) after the study, but this difference was not statistically significant (P=0.31). CONCLUSION Educational interventions, even virtually, can lead to improved self-efficacy and a sense of coherence in caregivers of cancer patients and can be used as one of the low-cost and effective methods in managing and controlling the disease.

Abstract
Resumen El objetivo fue sintetizar las mejores evidencias científicas sobre el efecto del sentido de coherencia en el desarrollo de la enfermedad, tratamiento e indicadores biomédicos de control metabólico y desarrollo de complicaciones de personas en riesgo de desarrollar diabetes y en diabéticos. El método utilizado fue la revisión sistemática. Búsqueda y selección por dos revisores independientes en las bases de datos Scopus, Web of Science, PubMed, Ebsco, Science Direct y manuales, disponibles hasta 2017, en español e inglés, en población con edad superior a 18 años. De un total de 154 estudios, 20 artículos fueron incluidos en la revisión sistemática. Más de la mitad de los estudios utilizaron la versión SOC-13 para la verificación del sentido de coherencia y el indicador de control metabólico más frecuente fue la hemoglobina glucosilada. Además, 14, de los 20 estudios, encontraron una relación estadísticamente significativa entre el sentido de coherencia y la diabetes. Se concluye que el sentido de coherencia tiene una fuerte correlación con la diabetes en las diferentes fases de la enfermedad y está relacionado con la reducción del riesgo para el desarrollo de la enfermedad, la reducción de los valores de hemoglobina glucosilada y la aparición de complicaciones de la diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
AIM Aiming at finding an effective way of empowering patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) to cope with their disease, the objective of the study was to explore the impact of sense of coherence (SOC) on their health-related quality of life (HRQoL). METHODS A total of 134/150 eligible MS patients followed-up at the Department of Neurology of the University Medical Centre Maribor, Slovenia, completed a multiple sclerosis quality of life 54 questionnaire (MSQoL-54) for assessment of HRQoL, and SOC-13-item questionnaire for assessment of SOC in 2013. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the association between the SOC score and mental and physical subscores of MSQoL-54 adjusted to disease-related and sociodemographic characteristics as potential confounders. RESULTS In a univariate analysis SOC score proved to be the strongest predictor of mental subscore of MSQoL-54 (b = 0.834; p < 0.001) explaining 35.6% of its variance. When adjusted for confounders, it retained its position as the most important predictor (b = 0.758; p < 0.001). On the other hand, SOC score was a slightly less important predictor of physical subscore of MSQoL-54, being the fourth strongest factor (b = 0.582; p < 0.001) in univariate analysis explaining 19.1% of the variance; however, when adjusted for confounders, its importance slightly increased by becoming the third most important predictor (b = 0.508; p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Based on the results of the present study, we can propose SOC as an important and suitable intervention targeted outcome to consider in managing both aspects of MS difficulties.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether diabetic nephropathy (DN) is associated with lower quality of life (QOL) in youths with long-duration type 1 diabetes and whether associations differ by diabetes duration. METHODS Overall, 1,462 youths aged 11 to 17 years with diabetes onset between 0 and 4 years of age and at least 10 years diabetes duration completed questionnaires on QOL between 2009 and 2016. Chronic generic and diabetes-specific QOL (diabetes impact and treatment scale) were assessed with three scales of the DISABKIDS instruments. Information on DN was obtained from the diabetes patient follow-up registry ("Diabetes-Patienten-Verlaufsdokumentation") with DN defined as micro- or macroalbuminuria. Linear regression analyses were used to evaluate the association between QOL and DN. To adjust for potential confounders, we applied inverse probability of treatment weighting for the linear regression. RESULTS In adjusted analysis, DN was associated with lower QOL in the chronic generic and the two diabetes-specific DISABKIDS scales. Overall, the observed effects were not clinically relevant but increased consistently with longer diabetes duration. Among those with at least 16 years diabetes duration, differences in QOL between patients with vs without DN were clinically relevant on the chronic generic scale (β = -10.3 [-21.0;0.7]). CONCLUSION The results suggest that long-term microvascular complications can impair chronic generic QOL already in youths with type 1 diabetes. Differences in QOL between patients with and without DN seem to increase with diabetes duration.

Abstract
Introduction: Self-perceived health status and sense of coherence (SOC) are essential constructs for capturing health outcomes in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). This study measured self-perceived health status and SOC in children with T1D and compared them with a healthy reference group in West Bank, Palestine. Methodology: One hundred children with T1D aged 8 to 18 years and 300 healthy children completed PedsQL 4.0 Generic Core Scales and SOC-13 in a cross-sectional descriptive study. Results: All children reported acceptable self-perceived health status and low degree of SOC. In the diabetes group, high degree of SOC was associated with better self-perceived health status and more optimal metabolic control. Males in the diabetes group reported higher self-perceived health status than females. Discussion: The unstable political situation in Palestine may threaten SOC in children in general. Health professionals can monitor self-perceived health status and SOC to evaluate interventions aiming to improve glycemic control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite intensive training, a few individuals with Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) fail to reach the desired metabolic targets. AIM To evaluate the association between disease-related emotional and cognitive aspects and metabolic control in subjects with T1DM. SUBJECTS AND METHODS Health locus of control (HLOC), sense of coherence (SOC), and self-esteem were assessed in T1DM subjects using validated questionnaires. Sixty-seven consecutive subjects who did not attain the desired HbA1c target (mean HbA1c, 8.3% [67 mmol/mol]) were compared with 30 cases in satisfactory metabolic control (HbA1c levels <7%-53 mmol/mol). RESULTS In the overall population, SOC was negatively associated with BMI and average HbA1c, as was the association of self-esteem with HbA1c. Subjects attaining the desired metabolic target were characterized by higher SOC scores, higher Internal HLOC and prevalent Internal vs. Powerful-others HLOC. Compared to subjects in good metabolic control, subjects with unsatisfactory control had lower scores of SOC, Internal HLOC and Self-esteem, with no difference in Powerful others, or Chance HLOC. In the same group, SOC in the upper tertile was significantly associated with self-esteem (OR 1.35; 95% CI 1.08-1.69) and PHLOC (OR 1.24; 95% CI 1.03-1.49), after adjustment for age, sex, educational level, and comorbidities. CONCLUSIONS Patients who fail to reach a satisfactory metabolic control tend to rely on significant others, trusting in the physicians' skills or on the efficiency of the health-care system. Strategies aimed at increasing self-efficacy and SOC, based on personal ability, are eagerly awaited to help patients improve diabetes care.

Abstract
The global burden of depression and stress-related mental disorders is substantial, and constitutes a major need for effective rehabilitation. Can nature-based rehabilitation help people return to work? OBJECTIVE To study if the length of a nature-based rehabilitation program affects the outcome with regard to return to work one year after the onset of the program, in a group of patients with long-term reactions to severe stress and/or depression. METHODS A prospective, quasi-experimental study comparing results from 8-, 12-, and 24-week periods of rehabilitation. The rehabilitation of 106 participants was carried out by a multimodal rehabilitation team in a specially designed rehabilitation garden. Return to work data were collected before the intervention and one year after the start of rehabilitation. In addition, data were collected regarding self-assessed occupational competence, personal control, and sense of coherence. As many as 68% of the participants returned to work or participated in job training or work-oriented measures, full- or part-time, after one year. Participants with a longer period of rehabilitation reported better results on occupational competence, and were more likely to participate in paid work, full-time or part-time, one year after rehabilitation. Study outcomes indicate that a longer rehabilitation period in a rehabilitation garden increases the possibility of a return to paid work.

Abstract
SOC was compared to clinical biomarkers in 125 people with type 1 diabetes. No association between SOC and HbA1c was found. An independent association between high SOC and lower LDL-C was found.
Aim It is a constant challenge for people with type 1 diabetes to maintain appropriate levels of HbA1c, blood pressure and blood lipids in order to prevent or delay deleterious effects of their illness. This study sought to investigate if Sense of Coherence (SOC) is associated with clinical risk factors in people with type 1 diabetes. Methods Questionnaire data, including measure of SOC, was collected from 125 patients with long duration of type 1 diabetes and linked to electronic patient records to obtain clinical measures on HbA1c, blood pressure, and blood lipids. Linear regressions and generalized additive models were applied to explore the associations between SOC and clinical biomarkers. Results Mean age of the participants was 60.7 years (standard deviation = 10.0), 44.0% were men. Medium and high SOC were associated with lower levels of LDL-cholesterol (p = 0.005). This association was non-linear with medium and high levels of SOC being advantageous whereas low SOC was associated with elevated levels of LDL-cholesterol. Moreover, we observed non-significant tendencies to associations between low SOC and low HDL-cholesterol, and elevated HbA1c. Conclusions Findings from this study suggest that high SOC may be protective against elevated LDL-cholesterol among people with type 1 diabetes. Interventions to improve self-management among people with low SOC may prove effective to prevent deterioration of metabolic risk factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Sense of Coherence (SOC) has been associated with perceived oral health measures, but the contribution of SOC to clinical measures is still unclear. The aim of the present cross-sectional study was to evaluate the potential association between periodontal health outcomes, such as periodontal clinical parameters and perceived periodontal health, and SOC. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study sample comprised 276 individuals, aged 18-60 years, from Belo Horizonte, Brazil. Participants answered questionnaires covering sociodemographic variables, self-perceived periodontal health and SOC. Full-mouth periodontal examinations were performed. The sample was divided into three groups according to SOC score: (a) SOC1 = weak (24-46); (b) SOC2 = moderate (47-51); (c) SOC3 = strong (52-65). Multivariate analyses including appropriate logistic or linear regression models were performed to evaluate the association between periodontal health outcomes and biological, sociodemographic and behavioural variables. RESULTS Perceived general oral health was associated with family income bracket (p = 0.010), smoking (p = 0.004), dental flossing (p = 0.017) and SOC (weak SOC: p = 0.005). Perceived gum disease and perceived periodontal disease were associated with SOC (weak SOC: p = 0.001 and p = 0.015, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Overall, perceived periodontal health outcomes were associated with SOC. However, no association between clinical periodontal health outcomes and SOC were observed.

Thomsen NOB, Björk J, Cederlund RI. Health-related quality of life 5 years after carpal tunnel release among patients with diabetes: a prospective study with matched controls. BMC Endocr Disord 2014; 14:85. [PMID: 25326166 PMCID: PMC4203934 DOI: 10.1186/1472-6823-14-85] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2014] [Accepted: 10/03/2014] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common entrapment neuropathy encountered in diabetes. The short-term improvement after carpal tunnel release has previously been demonstrated not to differ between patients with and without diabetes, despite a marked impairment in health-related quality of life (HRQL) among the former. In this study, we compare HRQL 5 years after carpal tunnel release between these two groups of patients. METHODS In a prospective series, 35 patients with diabetes and CTS were matched with 31 control patients with idiopathic CTS but no diabetes. At the 5-year follow-up patients completed the Medical Outcomes Short-Form 36 (SF-36) and Antonovsky's sense of coherence (SOC) questionnaire. Differences in changes over time were compared between patients with and without diabetes using mixed model analysis. RESULTS Although patients with diabetes reported a significant decrease in physical functioning (p =0.004) as compared to patients without diabetes, postoperative improvement was maintained in the physical domains, role physical and bodily pain. A more pronounced decline in the mental health domain, social function (p =0.03), was demonstrated among patients with diabetes. There was no evidence of any difference in SOC between the patient groups. CONCLUSION Patients with diabetes retained their improvement in physical domains sensitive to changes after carpal tunnel release in the long-term, despite a decline in other domains of both physical and mental HRQL. This differed from patients without diabetes. Differences in SOC could not explain the sharper decline in these domains among patients with diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed at exploring to what extent psychosocial factors, such as religiosity/spirituality and sense of coherence, mediate the negative effects of stress on a variety of cardiometabolic indicators, i.e., hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease, and atherosclerotic bio-clinical markers. DESIGN A total of 220 subjects (66.2±16.0 years) of the SPILI III cohort (1988-2012) attending a primary care setting in Spili, a rural town in Crete, represented the target group for the present study. Of these, 195 (88.6%) participated in the re-examination (67.2±15.2 years). All participants underwent a standardized procedure including evaluation of anthropometric measurements, biochemical indicators of atherosclerosis, stress hormones, in parallel with ultrasound measurements of carotid intima media thickness (IMT). Religiosity, spirituality and sense of coherence were evaluated with the use of international questionnaires translated into the Greek language and linguistically validated. RESULTS Participants with higher levels of religious and spiritual beliefs presented lower levels of carotid IMT (1.01±0.101 vs 1.53±0.502 mm, p<0.001). Patterns of inverse relationships were also observed between religiosity/spirituality and prevalence of diabetes (35.1% vs. 2%, p<0.001) with an estimated diabetes risk, fully adjusted odds ratio, 95% CI: 0.91 (0.87-0.94). Highly religious participants presented lower serum cortisol levels (12.3±5.8 vs. 18.2±5.1 μg/dl, p<0.001). Sense of coherence was positively associated with religiosity/spirituality [mean SOC (SD): 123±20 vs. 158±15) p<0.001]. CONCLUSIONS These findings may be associated with a possible favourable effect of religiosity/spirituality on several cardio-metabolic determinants, therefore deserving further attention by healthcare practitioners and researchers.

Merakou K, Koutsouri A, Antoniadou E, Barbouni A, Bertsias A, Karageorgos G, Lionis C. Sense of coherence in people with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus: an observational study from Greece. MENTAL HEALTH IN FAMILY MEDICINE 2013; 10:3-13. [PMID: 24381649 PMCID: PMC3822667] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/20/2013] [Accepted: 06/13/2013] [Indexed: 06/03/2023]
Abstract
Background Antonovsky's concept of sense of coherence (SOC) has been suggested to relate to health, especially mental health and preventive health behaviours. Psychological distress has been identified as a risk factor for pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study of SOC and diabetes has not received much attention in Greece. This study aims to explore the extent to which type 2 diabetes mellitus can affect the SOC score. Methods An observational design was used to test the study hypothesis that individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus would have a lower SOC than those without diabetes mellitus. A total of 202 individuals were studied, consisting of 100 people with diabetes mellitus (the study group) and 102 people with non-chronic orthopaedic conditions (the control group). All of the participants were patients of the Diabetic Clinic or the Orthopaedic Clinic of Livadia Hospital in Central Greece. SOC was assessed using a 29-item SOC questionnaire that had been translated into Greek and validated. Results Patients without type 2 diabetes mellitus had 2.4 times higher odds of having a high SOC score than patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (P = 0.036; odds ratio [OR] = 2.35, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.06-5.23). Male patients had 3.9 times higher odds of having a high SOC score (P < 0.001; OR = 3.85, 95% CI = 1.71-8.67) than female patients. With regard to education, patients with a lower level of education had almost three times higher odds of having a high SOC score than patients with a higher level of education (P = 0.024; OR = 2.97, 95% CI = 1.15-7.67). Conclusions This study adds to the existing literature and indicates that SOC is a health asset. A study with an experimental design would clarify the interesting hypothesis of this study.
