Article Abstract

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is one of the most common chronic complications of diabetes. It has a slow and insidious onset, mainly manifested as sensory and motor dysfunction, and increases susceptibility to psychological problems such as anxiety and depression, seriously affecting the quality of life of patients. The current treatment strategies focus on effective metabolic management and lifestyle intervention, but the results are not satisfactory. Mindfulness therapy (MBT), as a non-pharmaceutical intervention method, has gradually shown potential value in the treatment of DPN. This review incorporates studies on the two in recent years, revealing the main mechanism by which MBT affects neuropsychology. It explores the feasibility and application status of MBT in reshaping the cognitive experience of pain in patients with DPN, alleviating pain perception, improving psychological states such as anxiety and depression, and thereby enhancing the overall quality of life. In conclusion, our research provides more powerful evidence for the clinical treatment of patients with DPN by applying MBT.

Background: Psychological interventions such as medical hypnosis, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness-based techniques are emerging as promising tools in the management of persistent dyspnea. Their integration into clinical practice, however, is limited by the scarcity of validated outcome measures in non-English languages.

Objectives: This study aimed to provide linguistically validated French versions of four questionnaires selected for their potential relevance in assessing the psychological and perceptual dimensions of dyspnea: the Breathlessness Catastrophizing Questionnaire (BCQ), the Breathlessness Beliefs Questionnaire (BBQ), the COPD Self-Efficacy Scale (CSES), and the Three-Domain Interoceptive Sensations Questionnaire (THISQ).

Objective: To understand how discourses in current TB policies frame social dimensions of TB, especially concepts of social inequity, gender, and stigma.
