Low vitamin D, and bone mineral

density with depressive symptoms

burden in menopausal and

post-menopause women

A. Bener

Objective

The objective of current study was conducted to deter-

mine whether low vitamin D level and BMD are associated

with depressive symptoms as burden in Arab women during the

menopausal and post-menopausal period.

Design and setting

A cross-sectional descriptive study.

Subjects

Amulti-stage sampling designwas used and a represen-

tative sample of 1436 women aged 45–65 years were included.

Methods

Bone mineral densitometry measurements [BMD]

(g/m

2

) was assessed at the BMD unit using. Data on body mass

index (BMI), clinical biochemistry variables including serum 25-

hydroxyvitamin D were collected. The Beck Depression Inventory

(BDI) was administered for depression purposes.

Results

Of the 1436 women living in urban and rural areas,

1106 women agreed to participate (77.0%). There were statis-

tically significance differences between menopausal stages with

regards to ethnicity, education level, systolic and diastolic blood

pressure, parity, sheesha smoking and depressive symptoms. Over-

all, 30.4% of women were affected with osteopenia/osteoporosis

in menopause and postmenopausal (24.4% vs. 35.7%;

P

= 0.0442).

Osteopenia in menopause and postmenopausal (18.7% vs. 29.3%;

P

= 0.030) and osteoporosis (9.9% vs. 15.9%;

P

= 0.049) were signifi-

cantly higher in post-menopausal women than in pre-menopausal

women (

P

= 0.046). Similarly, vitamin D deficiencywasmore preva-

lent among postmenopausal women thanmenopausal women. The

study revealed that vitamin D level, hemoglobin level, serum iron

fasting plasma glucose, calcium, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, LDL

cholesterol, alkaline phosphate and magnesium were consider-

ably lower in postmenopausal compared to menopause women

(

P

< 0.001).

Conclusion

The study confirmed strong association between vita-

min D level and BMD in Arab women during the menopausal and

post-menopausal period.

Introduction

Nomophobia is the fear of feeling disconnected and

is considered a modern situational phobia.

Objectives

No psychometric scales in Italian are available inves-

tigating nomophobia. Therefore, we planned a translation and

validation study of the Nomophobia Questionnaire (NMP-Q) by

Yildirim and Correia.

Aims

Subjects were recruited via an online survey using a snow-

ball approach.

Methods

NMP-Q was translated from English into Italian. To

explore the factor structure, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was

carried out. A principal component analysis (PCA) approach with

varimax rotation was performed.

Results

Four hundred and three subjects volunteered to take part

into the study. Age was 27.91

±

8.63 y, 160 were males (39.7%) and

243 females (60.3%). 45 subjects used to spend less than 1 hour

on their mobile (11.2%), 94 between 1 and 2 hours (23.3%), 69

between 2 and 3 hours (17.1%), 58 between 3 and 4 hours (14.4%),

48 between 4 and 5 hours (11.9%), 29 between 5 and 7 hours (7.2%),

36 between 7 and 9 hours (8.9%) and 24 more than 10 hours (6.0%).

Eigen values and the scree-plot supported a 3-factorial nature of the

translated questionnaire. NMP-Q showed a Cronbach’s alpha coef-

ficient of 0.95 (0.94, 0.89 and 0.88 for the three factors). The first

factor explained 23.32% of the variance, the second and the third

23.91% and 18.67%, respectively. Further, the total score of NMP-

Q correlated with the number of hours spent on the mobile, the

age (beta-coefficient

0.33,

P

= 0.016) and sex (being higher among

females).

Conclusions

The Italian version of NMP-Q proved to be reliable.

The relationship between sensory

processing disorder and temperament

on emotional functioning and

self-efficacy in childhood

S. Buchris Bazak

Qiryat-Gat, Israel

My study presents and explores the emotional functions and the

sense of self-efficacy among school-age children (6–10) with sen-

sory processing disorder manifested in sensory processing disorder

(SPD) while addressing their temperament. Central questions in

this study involve the element of temperament, which deter-

mined the emotional functioning of children who suffer from SPD

and examined whether temperament explaining the variance in

these children’s self-efficacy. The SPD was the independent vari-

able. Emotional functioning and the sense of self-efficacy were the

dependent variables and temperament served as the mediating

variable.The study focused on 209 students (129 boys, 80 girls)

between the ages 6–10 (M= 8, SD = 1.13), studying in schools in dif-

ferent geographical areas in Israel. The Short Sensory Profile (SPS)

Questionnaire was administered to the students in order to char-

acterize their sensory profiles and served as a tool for screening

and identifying the children with SPD and children who will be

included in the control group. The questions raised in this study,

have both educational and clinical research importance. They can

be used as the basis for educational interventions for children with

SOR and may be useful in supporting the building of an integrated

intervention and treatment program.
