Methadone substitution treatment is approven device in the risk reduction strategy of hepatitis B,C and HIV infection.The aim of this studyis to determine: the socio-demographic and medical psychiatric characteristics of patients with hepatitis B,C and HIV under methadone,the prevalence of hepatitis C,B and HIV,the dose of methadone and compliance with treatment in this population. Materials and methods: This is a retrospective descriptive study of patients admitted to the center of addictology at the hospital Ar-razi of Sale in Morocco , specifically in methadone unit. Results: The prevalence of hepatitis C, B and HIV were respectively 80%, 13% and 4% in patients with positive serology, the average dose of methadone was higher than the dose of all patients enrolled in the...

Un éventuel lien causal entre facteurs psychiques et développement d'un cancer a beaucoup préoccupé les chercheurs. Pour l'essentiel leurs conclusions se rejoignent. Un petit nombre de facteurs psychologiques prédisposant au cancer se détachent clairement : le stress, la dépression et le type de personnalité (en particulier la personnalité dite de type C). On peut également inclure la défaillance du support social. La psycho-neuro-endocrino-immunologie tente d'établir des rapports entre psychologie et cancer.

Elle se base sur quatre approches principales : les traitements de substitution par opiacés, la réduction des modes de consommation à risque, la prévention de la morbidité et de la mortalité et l'atténuation des préjudices sociaux liés à aux addictions. L'adoption d'une stratégie nationale et l'implantation d'un dispositif global de réduction des risques chez les usagers de drogues injectables font partie du programme national de lutte contre la toxicomanie adopte par le Ministère de la Santé, comprenant l'implantation d'un dispositif global pour la réduction des risques VIH chez les usagers de drogues injectables avec la création d'unités fixes « bas seuil d'exigence » et d'unités mobiles et par...

We aimed to assess medical students’ psychological condition and influencing factors as a baseline evidence for interventions promoting their mental wellbeing. We conducted an online survey from April 8 to April 18, 2020 to examine the mental health of medical students by the nine-item Patient Health Questionnaire, seven-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, seven-item Insomnia Severity Index, and six-item Kessler psychological distress scale. Factors associated with mental health outcomes were identified by multivariable logistic regression analysis. Five hundred forty-nine students completed the survey; 341 (62.3%), 410 (74.6%), 344 (62.6%), and 379 (69%) reported anxiety, depression, insomnia, and distress, respectively. Female students, living in high COVID-19 prevalence locations, more than 25 days confinement, psychiatric consult history, and being in a preclinical level of studies had higher median scor...

Indeed, this work confirmed that the unrecognised bipolar disorder is common among depressed outpatients, which were younger, unemployed, single or divorced with a low socioeconomic level. These socio-demographics data gives us an idea about the disability experienced by the unknown bipolar patients. Also, we demonstrate that the under-diagnosis bipolar disorder was associated with the earliest onset age of a depressive episode and it was more prevalent in depressed patients with suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. These factors should be taken into account when we screen for the unknowm bipolar disorder, especially type II to improve the early diagnosis and the quality of life of these patients.

We conducted a cross sectional survey in three health care centers in two cities of Morocco to estimate the prevalence of suicidal ideation, plan and suicide attempts among 396 consultants in the primary health care system, using the Mini International neuropsychiatric interview. Patients were 18 years and older, without known psychiatric or chronic somatic disease. Statistical analysis was performed by the SPSS 13.0 software. The prevalence of suicidal ideation was 5.3%, and 2.7% of the patients planned their suicide and 1.2% tried to commit suicide. The multivariate analysis did not demonstrate significant association. Suicidal ideation, plan and suicide attempts are prevalent in primary health care patients, but they are still under diagnosed. An adequate training of physicians and the establishment of education programs is essential to reduce the rate...

Methodology: It's a cross-sectional study with 351 participants selected from Moroccan primary care facilities, aged above 18 years without chronic somatic or psychiatric disease. The participants answered a questionnaire that included demographic characteristics, the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview for major depressive episode (MDE), dysthymic disorder and the Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF). Statistical analysis was performed by the SPSS 13.0 software. Results: The prevalence of depressive disorders in the sample was 13.7%, that of MDE was 9.1%, while dysthymic disorder was 4.3%, the rate of recurrent depressive episodes was 38.2% (6% of participants), and the prevalence of depression over a lifetime was 17.7%. The percentage of depression was higher among women than men (P = 0.01). 6.3% of depressed patients have already attempt...

L'héroïne fait partie de ces substances qui causent une forte dépendance dont certains utilisateurs réussissent très difficilement à se défaire. Les personnes dépendantes des opiacés expriment des demandes qui appellent des stratégies de prise en charge globale parmi lesquelles les médicaments de substitution aux opiacés, méthadone et buprénorphine haut dosage, ont une place prépondérante. Ces thérapies permettent aux patients de réduire ou cesser leur consommation d'opiacés illicites et favorisent ainsi la modification de leurs comportements de consommation et habitudes de vie. En réduisant ainsi les divers dommages induits, ces stratégies diversifient les modes de prise en charge et permettent de faire accéder une proportion significative des personnes dépendantes à l'héroïne ou aux opiacés à une prise en charge associée à la substitution, de favori...
