Do expressed emotions result in stigma?
The result suggested that EEs from a relative might go unnoticed but may significantly overwhelm the patient, thereby making him succumb to depression or feeling stigmatized. The analysis of such a clinical profile and relationship between EEs and perceived stigma/depression may help us understand the pattern of attribution styles adopted by PWEs, thereby utilizing it further for enhancing the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral therapy for facilitating sustained recovery and improved quality of life for PWEs.
Dynamic assessment of gene expression following carboplatin exposure in vitro can identify both genes and pathways that are correlated with clinical outcome. The functional relevance of this observation for better understanding the mechanisms of drug resistance in EOC will require further evaluation.
