Shiftwork is associated with a number of poor somatic and psychological health outcomes, especially sleep issues. Higher rates of absenteeism and accidents in the workplace are possible consequences. Still, prevention programs and treatment options that are specifically tailored to shift-workers' needs are rare. We devised a 4-week online cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) intervention (n = 21) and compared sleep outcomes to a face-to-face outpatient treatment for shift-workers (n = 12) using a sleep diary and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). In the online sample, measures also included the World Health Organization wellbeing questionnaire (WHO-5) and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). In the outpatient sample, the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-II), the Montgomery-{\AA}sberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) were administered. Results showed significant improvements in sleep efficiency by 7.2\% in the online sample and 7.7\% in the outpatient sample. However, no significant difference was found in the rate of improvement in sleep efficiency across four weeks of treatment between the samples. In the online sample, the wellbeing (WHO-5) and insomnia symptoms (ISI) scores were significantly improved following the CBT-I intervention (p < 0.004 and p < 0.002 respectively). In the outpatient sample, symptoms of depression (BDI-II and MADRS scores) and insomnia symptoms (PSQI scores) improved significantly following the CBT-I intervention. In summary, CBT-I significantly improved sleep efficiency in both the online and outpatient samples, in addition to wellbeing, symptoms of insomnia, and depression. The findings of this study demonstrate online CBT-I as a feasible approach for treating insomnia in shift-workers. Future randomized controlled trials are needed.}, subject = {Computergest{\"u}tzte Kommunikation}, language = {en} } @article{RichterKellner2021, author = {Richter, Kneginja and Kellner, Stefanie}, title = {„Coronasomnia" - Resilienzf{\"o}rderung durch Insomniebehandlung}, series = {Somnologie}, volume = {25}, journal = {Somnologie}, number = {3}, publisher = {Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, issn = {1432-9123}, doi = {10.1007/s11818-021-00322-8}, pages = {170 -- 175}, year = {2021}, abstract = {Der Begriff „Coronasomnia" beschreibt popul{\"a}rwissenschaftlich Schlafst{\"o}rungen, die im Zusammenhang mit der COVID-19-Pandemie in Erscheinung treten.

In turn, sleep shortage, deprivation and disorders are per evidence the risk factors and facilitators of a broad spectrum of disorders, amongst others including depression, stroke, chronic inflammation, cancers, immune defence insufficiency and individual predisposition to infection diseases with poor outcomes, for example, related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Keeping in mind that COVID-19-related global infection distribution is neither the first nor the last pandemic severely affecting societies around the globe to the costs of human lives accompanied with enormous economic burden, lessons by predictive, preventive and personalised (3P) medical approach are essential to learn and to follow being better prepared to defend against global pandemics. To this end, under extreme conditions such as the current COVID-19 pandemic, the reciprocal interrelationship between the sleep quality and individual outcomes becomes evident, namely, at the levels of disease predisposition, severe versus mild disease progression, development of disease complications, poor outcomes and related mortality for both - population and healthcare givers. The latter is the prominent example clearly demonstrating the causality of severe outcomes, when the long-lasting work overload and shift work rhythm evidently lead to the sleep shortage and/or deprivation that in turn causes immune response insufficiency and strong predisposition to the acute infection with complications. This article highlights and provides an in-depth analysis of the concerted risk factors related to the sleep disturbances under the COVID-19 pandemic followed by the evidence-based recommendations in the framework of predictive, preventive and personalised medical approach.}, language = {en} } @article{LichtAltFuchsetal.2021, author = {Licht, Christiane and Alt, Eva and Fuchs, Sarah and Ruttmann, Axel and Richter, Kneginja and Hillemacher, Thomas}, title = {Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for catatonia}, series = {Brain Stimulation}, volume = {14}, journal = {Brain Stimulation}, number = {6}, publisher = {Elsevier BV}, issn = {1935-861X}, doi = {10.1016/j.brs.2021.10.154}, year = {2021}, language = {en} } @article{MilosevaRichter2022, author = {Miloseva, Lence and Richter, Kneginja}, title = {Editorial: Impact of neurostimulation and psychotherapy on mental health}, series = {Frontiers in Psychology}, volume = {13}, journal = {Frontiers in Psychology}, publisher = {Frontiers Media SA}, issn = {1664-1078}, doi = {10.3389/fpsyg.2022.992634}, year = {2022}, language = {en} } @article{RichterRodenbeck2022, author = {Richter, Kneginja and Rodenbeck, Andrea}, title = {Aktuelle Entwicklungen in der Schlafforschung und Schlafmedizin - eine Einsch{\"a}tzung der AG „Chronobiologie"}, series = {Somnologie}, volume = {26}, journal = {Somnologie}, number = {3}, publisher = {Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, issn = {1432-9123}, doi = {10.1007/s11818-022-00368-2}, pages = {152 -- 154}, year = {2022}, language = {de} }
