Evidence-based interventions are needed.ObjectiveTo determine whether the likelihood of endorsing suicide ideation (SI) changed during a brief behavioral activation (BA) psychotherapy for perinatal depression irrespective of clinician or delivery types.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis is a secondary analysis of a multisite, noninferiority, 4-arm randomized clinical trial called SUMMIT(Scaling Up Maternal Mental Health Care by Increasing Access to Treatment). SUMMIT compared clinicians (nonspecialist vs specialist) and modalities (telemedicine vs in person) in delivering BA. Participants were enrolled from January 2020 to October 2023. The study was conducted at university-affiliated networks in Chicago, Illinois; Chapel Hill, North Carolina; and Toronto, Canada. Pregnant (≤36 weeks) and postpartum (4-30 weeks) adults with depressive symptoms (Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale [EPDS] score ≥10) were enrolled. Secondary data analyses were conducted in November 2024.InterventionA manualized 6- to 8-session perinatal BA intervention delivered weekly.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was SI, as measured by the EPDS item 10, assessed weekly and at 3 months postrandomization. SI endorsements were followed by the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) for further safety assessment.ResultsA total of 1230 pregnant and postpartum adults were enrolled, among whom 1117 completed 1 or more treatment session and provided 1 or more week of EPDS data and thus were included in the current study. Of 1117 included participants, 264 (23.6%) endorsed SI during treatment, and mean (SD) age was 33.4 (4.9) years. Cumulative link mixed models indicated that the odds of endorsing SI decreased by 25% with each additional treatment session (odds ratio [OR], 0.75; 95% CI, 0.58-0.96; <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> = .03). The odds of endorsing SI decreased by 80% at 3 months postrandomization compared with any time during treatment (OR, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.14-0.27; <jats:italic>P</jats:italic> &amp;lt; .001). The odds of endorsing SI did not differ between clinician type (nonspecialist vs specialist) or modality (telemedicine vs in person). Goodness-of-fit χ<jats:sup>2</jats:sup> tests further indicated that participants were significantly more likely to endorse suicide thoughts on the C-SSRS at treatment onset compared with any other time point.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this secondary analysis of the SUMMIT noninferiority randomized clinical trial, the likelihood of endorsing SI decreased over the course of a brief BA psychotherapy for perinatal depression and most significantly at 3 months postrandomization, irrespective of clinician or delivery types.

The timeline for submission of this data for publication was impacted by internal strategic decision-making. Adults (aged 18-64 years) and older adults (aged 65-85 years) with insomnia (Insomnia Severity Index score ≥15) and no psychiatric comorbidity were included.InterventionsParticipants were randomized 1:1:1:1:1 to receive nightly oral-seltorexant (5 mg, 10 mg, or 20 mg), placebo, or zolpidem (5-10 mg) for 14 days.Main Outcomes and MeasuresPrimary and key secondary outcomes included the dose-response relationship of night 1 latency to persistent sleep (LPS) and wake after sleep onset over the first 6 hours (WASO-6). Other secondary outcomes included night 13 LPS and WASO-6. Due to asymmetrical distributions of LPS and WASO-6 at baseline, log transformation was applied and results were expressed as back-transformed least-squares mean (LSM) ratios for comparisons between groups.ResultsOverall, 364 participants (mean [SD] age, 57.8 [12.4] years; 246 [67.6%] female) received seltorexant, 5 mg (n = 71), 10 mg (n = 74), or 20 mg (n = 71); placebo (n = 75); or zolpidem (n = 73).

The number of individuals receiving benzodiazepine prescriptions in the 7- and 30-day periods following the October 7 attacks, in all Clalit Health Services' members aged 18 years or older who were actively insured as of October 7, 2023, were compared with the same population in 2022.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was changes in overall and first-time benzodiazepine prescriptions during the 7-day and 30-day periods following October 7, 2023, compared with the same periods in 2022.

However, smoking cessation interventions are often absent from SUD treatment facilities.ObjectivesTo inform smoking cessation and SUD care by assessing smoking status and SUD recovery over time to determine whether transitioning from current to former smoking is associated with sustained SUD recovery.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis cohort study was conducted among a nationally representative cohort of US adults with history of SUD from the PATH (Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health) Study. The PATH Study is an ongoing, nationally representative, longitudinal cohort study in the US. Analyses included adults (aged ≥18 years) in the wave 1 cohort (recruited in 2013/2014) assessed annually over 4 years until wave 4 (2016/2018). A second nationally representative cohort (from 2016/2018 to 2023) was also assessed in sensitivity analyses. Data analysis was completed from June 2024 to September 2024.ExposureCigarette smoking (never, former, and current use).Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome was SUD recovery, assessed via the Global Appraisal of Individual Needs-Short Screener SUD subscale, measured as high lifetime SUD symptoms (4-7 symptoms) and zero past-year symptoms (sustained remission) or high lifetime SUD symptoms with any past-year symptoms (current substance use or SUD). Fixed-effects logistic regression assessed within-person change in smoking and its association with SUD recovery, accounting for between-person confounders.ResultsAmong 2652 adults from 2013/2014 to 2016/2018, 41.9% of participants (95% CI, 39.4%-44.4%) were female, and mean age was 39.4 years (95% CI, 38.7-40.3).

Within-person change from current to former smoking was positively associated with SUD recovery: year-to-year change to former cigarette use was associated with a 30% increase in odds of recovery (odds ratio [OR], 1.30; 95% CI, 1.07-1.57), accounting for time-varying covariates and between-person differences. This association remained significant after lagging predictor by 1 year (OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.00-2.05) and in the second cohort assessed from 2016/2018 to 2022/2023 (OR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.13-1.66).Conclusions and RelevanceIn this cohort study, within-person change from current to former smoking was associated with recovery from other SUDs. These results suggest that smoking cessation could be used as a tool to assist recovery processes and improve health among adults with an SUD.","PeriodicalId":14800,"journal":{"name":"JAMA Psychiatry","volume":"746 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":25.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144825841","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
