Personen, die mit der chronischen Erkrankung HIV leben (PWH), m{\"u}ssen ihr Leben lang die sog. antiretrovirale Therapie (ART) einnehmen, um einen Ausbruch der Erkrankung in das Vollbild AIDS (Akquiriertes Immun-Defizienz-Syndrom) zu vermeiden. Gleichzeitig ist die ART und HIV selbst assoziiert mit dem Auftreten zus{\"a}tzlicher Erkrankungen (Komorbidit{\"a}ten) kardiovaskul{\"a}rer oder psychologischer Natur. Die Pr{\"a}valenz von Komorbidit{\"a}ten und schlechter Lebensqualit{\"a}t ist im Vergleich zu HIV-negativen Personen deutlich h{\"o}her. Methoden. Es wurden zwei Metaanalysen zu sportlicher Bet{\"a}tigung, PWH und (1) kardiovaskul{\"a}ren und (2) psychologischen Parametern sowie eine Querschnittsstudie (HIBES-Studie, HIV-Begleiterkrankungen und Sport) durchgef{\"u}hrt. F{\"u}r die Auswertung der metaanalytischen Daten wurde der Review Manager 5.3, f{\"u}r die Auswertung der Daten der HIBES-Studie das Analyseprogramm „R" verwendet. In den Metaanalysen wurden, neben den Hauptanalysen verschiedener Parameter, erstmals spezifische Subgruppenanalysen durchgef{\"u}hrt. Die HIBES-Studie untersuchte Unterschiede zwischen kumulativen (2-3 verschiedenen Sportarten pro Woche) und einfachen (eine Sportart pro Woche) Freizeitsport und analysiert die Zusammenh{\"a}nge von Parametern des Freizeitsports (Trainingsh{\"a}ufigkeit, -Minuten und -Intensit{\"a}t), Komorbidit{\"a}ten und der Lebensqualit{\"a}t. Ergebnisse. Ausdauer- und Krafttraining haben einen mittel-starken bis starken positiven Effekt auf die maximale Sauerstoffaufnahme (SMD= 0.66, p< .00001), den 6-Minuten-Walk-Test (6MWT) (SMD= 0.59, p= .02), die maximale Watt Zahl (SMD= 0.80, p= .009). Kein Effekt wurde bei der maximalen Herzfrequenz und dem systolischen sowie diastolischen Blutdruck gefunden. Subgruppenanalysen zu ≥3 Einheiten/Woche, ≥150 Min./Woche ergaben hohe Effektst{\"a}rken in der maximalen Watt Zahl und 6MWT. Ausdauer- und Krafttraining zusammen mit Yoga haben einen starken Effekt auf Symptome der Depression (SMD= -0.84, p= .02) und Angstst{\"o}rungen (SMD= -1.23, p= .04). Die Subanalyse der Depression zu professioneller Supervision und sportlicher Bet{\"a}tigung wiesen einen sehr starken Effekt (SMD= -1.40, p= .03). Die HIBES-Studie wies ein sehr differenziertes Bild im Sportverhalten von PWH in Deutschland auf. 49\% der Teilnehmer {\"u}bten mehr als eine Sportart pro Woche aus. Es wurden keine Unterschiede zwischen kumuliertem (CTE) und einfachem Sport (STE) in der Lebensqualit{\"a}t gefunden. Die Freizeitsportparameter (H{\"a}ufigkeiten/Woche, Minuten/Woche, Intensit{\"a}t/Woche) waren in der CTE-Gruppe deutlich h{\"o}her als in der STE-Gruppe. Trainingsminuten und die -Intensit{\"a}t zeigten beim Vorhandensein einer Komorbidit{\"a}t einen großen Zusammenhang mit der Lebensqualit{\"a}t. Die Minuten und die Intensit{\"a}t des durchgef{\"u}hrten Sportes zeigten einen pr{\"a}diktiven Zusammenhang mit der Lebensqualit{\"a}t. Konklusion: Sportliche Bet{\"a}tigung verbessert die maximale Sauerstoffaufnahme und Symptome der Depression und Angstst{\"o}rungen. Die Aussagekraft der Subanalysen ist aufgrund der geringen Studienzahl, vorsichtig zu interpretieren. Erh{\"o}hte Trainingsparameter finden sich eher bei PWH, die mehr als eine Sportart pro Woche treiben. Daher kann kumulierter Sport als mediierender Faktor zur Steigerung der Lebensqualit{\"a}t interpretiert werden; zumindest bei PWH mit einer psychologischen Komorbidit{\"a}t.}, language = {de} } @misc{WollnyJacobsPabel2020, author = {Wollny, Anna and Jacobs, Ingo and Pabel, Luise}, title = {Trait emotional intelligence and relationship satisfaction}, series = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, journal = {Zweitver{\"o}ffentlichungen der Universit{\"a}t Potsdam : Mathematisch-Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe}, number = {1175}, issn = {1866-8372}, doi = {10.25932/publishup-51762}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:517-opus4-517629}, pages = {75 -- 93}, year = {2020}, abstract = {Trait emotional intelligence (TEI) is an important individual difference variable that is related to the quality of romantic relationships.

Results: We found negative correlations between stress and QoL in both partners (QoL-AD: r = -0.62; p < 0.001; WHO-QOL Overall: r = -0.27; p = 0.02). Spousal caregivers had a significantly lower DCI total score than dementia patients (p < 0.001). Dyadic coping was a significant mediator of the relationship between stress and QoL in spousal caregivers (z = 0.28; p = 0.02), but not in dementia patients. Likewise, relationship quality significantly mediated the relationship between stress and QoL in caregivers only (z = -2.41; p = 0.02). Conclusions: This study identified dyadic coping as a mediator on the relationship between stress and QoL in (caregiving) partners of dementia patients. In patients, however, we found a direct negative effect of stress on QoL. The findings suggest the importance of stress reducing and dyadic interventions for dementia patients and their partners, respectively.}, language = {en} }
