Psychological interventions can provide benefits to patients with skin conditions such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis, researchers in Britain said.
Researchers at the University of Sheffield, England, conducted a meta-analysis of 22 studies involving more than 900 participants.
The meta-analysis, published in the British Journal of Dermatology, found psychological interventions had a medium-sized effect on skin conditions but that a number of different factors influenced the effectiveness of the interventions, including: The type of intervention, the time interval between the end of the intervention and follow-up and the type of outcome.
“The number of skin conditions represented by the study was small but a medium-sized effect was seen for interventions treating psoriasis and atopic dermatitis,” the researchers said in the review. “The analysis showed that psychological interventions generally had less effect on skin conditions accompanied by pain.”
Four types of intervention were well enough represented for analysis: Habit reversal, cognitive behavioral therapy, arousal reduction and combined techniques.
Habit reversal had the largest effect size, followed by cognitive behavioral therapy and arousal reduction and combined techniques, the study said. (UPI)

아토피 치료하려면 '이것'부터 시작해라!
‘심리치료’(psychological interventions)가 건선 과 아토피 피부염 같은 피부병을 가진 환자들에게 어느 정도 도움을 줄 수 있다는 연구 결과가 나왔다.
26일 잉글랜드 셰필드대 연구진이 영국피부학저널에 발표한 논문에 따르면 심리 치료는 이 같은 피부 상태에 중간 정도의 효과를 가졌으나 치료의 형태, 치료 사이 의 시간차 등 다른 요소들이 심리적 개입의 효율성에 영향을 미쳤다.
900여명의 임상실험 대상자, 22개 연구에 관한 메타 분석으로 이뤄진 이번 연구 에서 다뤄진 심리치료의 네 가지 형태는 습관 반전(habit reversal), 인지 행동 치료, 각성 감소(arousal reduction), 복합 기술(combined techniques)이었으며 이 가운데 습관 반전이 가장 큰 치료 효과를 보였다.
