DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a 5-year study to evaluate the effect of a 10-week patient-partner telephone- based cognitive behavioral stress management (CBSM) intervention on chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) symptoms in 150 patients diagnosed with CFS. Because many patients with CFS are unable to attend intervention sessions in clinical settings due to unpredictable periods of debilitating fatigue and limited mobility, we created a form of CBSM intervention that is delivered at the participant's home through a telecommunications system (i.e., Telephone-based CBSM, T-CBSM). A unique aspect of T-CBSM is that it uses the telephone to convene groups of individuals in their homes-thus it retains some of the supportive elements of a group-based intervention. We have observed that over a 5-month period this patient-focused T-CBSM intervention is associated with decreases in CDC-based CFS symptoms and decreases in the pro- inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-1b (IL-1b) and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) and increases in the anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-13. Greater decreases in pro- inflammatory cytokines were associated with greater increases in the negative pitch of the AM-PM slope of salivary cortisol and greater decreases in CFS symptoms. This supported our neuroimmune model as an explanation for the effects of T-CBSM on CFS symptoms. We also conducted subgroup analyses comparing partnered and unpartnered CFS patients and found that the effects of the intervention were much larger in the partnered group. We have designed a study to follow up on these findings by testing a newly designed partner-patient dual focus videotelephone-delivered CBSM intervention (PP-T-CBSM) that allows the partner to learn stress management techniques with the patient in a group setting and to then practice together a set of stress management techniques such as relaxation and cognitive, behavioral and interpersonal skills training. We will compare changes in CFS symptoms, neuroimmune indicators, and psychosocial (patient and partner) functioning in participants assigned to PP-T-CBSM vs an attention time-matched telephone-based health information (T-HI) control condition in a 2 X 3 randomized experimental design with group (PP-T-CBSM, n=75 vs. T-HI, n=75) as the between-group factor, and time (Pre-intervention, 5- and 9- month follow-up) as the within-group factor.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一项为期5年的研究，旨在评估10周患者 - 基于电话的认知行为应力管理（CBSM）干预对150名诊断为CFS的患者的慢性疲劳综合征（CFS）症状的影响。由于许多CFS患者由于无法预测的使人衰弱的疲劳和有限的流动性而无法在临床环境中参加干预课程，因此我们创建了一种CBSM干预的形式，该形式通过电信系统（即基于电话的CBSM CBSM，T-CBSM，T-CBSM）在参与者的家中提供。 T-CBSM的一个独特方面是，它使用电话在其家中召集个人组成的人群 - 因此，它保留了基于组的干预措施的一些支持元素。我们已经观察到，在5个月的时间内，这种以患者为中心的T-CBSM干预措施与CDC的CFS症状降低有关，并且促炎性细胞因子的降低和降低，白介素1B（IL-1B）（IL-1B）和肿瘤坏死因子-A（TNF-A）（TNF-A）（TNF-A）（TNF-A），并增加抗抗抑制性Cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cytokine cy33。促炎性细胞因子的较大降低与唾液皮质醇的AM-PM斜率的负斜率增加有关，而CFS症状的降低较大。这支持了我们的神经免疫模型，以解释T-CBSM对CFS症状的影响。我们还进行了亚组分析，比较了合作和未解决的CFS患者，并发现伙伴组的干预效果要大得多。我们设计了一项研究来跟进这些发现，通过测试新设计的合作伙伴患者双重焦点录像带录像带CBSM干预措施（PP-T-CBSM），该研究使伴侣能够与患者在小组设置中学习压力管理技术，然后一起练习一系列的压力管理技术，例如放松，行为，行为，培训和培训技能。我们将比较分配给PP-T-T-CBSM的参与者中的CFS症状，神经免疫指标以及心理社会（患者和伴侣）的功能，与注意力相匹配的基于电话的健康信息（T-HI）的健康信息（T-HI）控制条件在2 x 3随机实验设计中使用组（PP-T-CBSM，pp-t-cbsm，n = 75 vs. t-in = 75），n = 75，n = 75），（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）（n = 75）， 9个月的随访）作为组内因子。
