Participants were first-year university students (N=2,144) free of symptoms indicative of IGD at entry (baseline). Ten mental disorders (bipolar, major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, alcohol use disorder, drug use disorder, binging and/or purging, intermittent explosive disorder, psychotic experiences, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) at baseline were the main risk factors for IGD at the end of the follow-up. We used Cox regression to model the IGD incidence rate.Results: Any mental disorder at baseline was associated with an increase in 2.33 times (1.26-4.31) the rate of IGD 1 to 3 years later. Several individual disorders were associated with rates of IGD in multiple models, with comorbid conditions diminishing most of these associations.Conclusions: Only major depressive disorder and bipolar disorder remained associated with a new case of IGD. Discrepant results from available longitudinal studies on the role of specific mental disorders in the development of IGD needs to be further investigated.","PeriodicalId":21244,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira de Psiquiatria","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142352903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite their increasing use, gaps remain in understanding their regulatory frameworks, integration, and efficacy for conditions like substance use disorder, insomnia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. This study evaluates FDA-approved digital therapeutics and explores their potential to revolutionize psychiatric treatments amid ongoing technological and regulatory changes. We conducted a comprehensive review of major databases, focusing on articles published up to January 2024 on FDA-approved digital therapeutics. We excluded non-English articles and those lacking empirical data or focusing on non-FDA-approved therapeutics. Our analysis covered regulatory compliance, clinical outcomes, and integration with traditional treatments. The review of nine FDA-cleared digital therapeutics revealed benefits like improved treatment accessibility and potential reductions in healthcare costs. For example, Somryst, a cognitive-behavioral therapy-based treatment for insomnia, showed that over 40 percent of users overcame chronic insomnia, and 60 percent experienced improvements without adverse effects. However, challenges remain, including low provider adoption, inadequate insurance coverage, and high user dropout rates. While digital therapeutics enhance accessibility, they face regulatory challenges, reimbursement issues, and the need for robust clinical evidence. Success depends on collaboration among stakeholders to demonstrate value, ensure safety, and integrate them into existing healthcare systems.","PeriodicalId":21244,"journal":{"name":"Revista Brasileira de Psiquiatria","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.6,"publicationDate":"2024-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142352901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The intervention group received NT and a psychological stress leaflet, while the control group received only a psychological stress leaflet.

Identifying potential protective factors of premature death in this population is important to help guide prevention measures. Here, we examined whether all-cause and cause-specific mortality rates significantly differ between older adults with schizophrenia with and without children, during a 5-year follow-up.Methods: We used data from a 5-year prospective multicenter sample of older adults with an ICD-10 diagnosis of schizophrenia (aged 55 years or more) recruited in France. We performed a forward stepwise logistic regression to examine the association between parenthood and all-cause mortality, including only those independent variables that best explain outcome.Results: Of 323 older adults with schizophrenia, 133 (41.2%) had children (mean age=67.0, SD=6.1), whereas 190 were without children (mean age=67.2, SD=6.6). Following adjustments, parenthood was significantly associated with lower all-cause mortality compared to patients without children in this population (21.1% (n=28) versus 35.8% (n=68); AOR=0.50; 95%CI=0.27-0.94; p=0.032), without significant sex differences in this association.Conclusions: Parenthood could be protective against mortality among older patients with schizophrenia who live in France.

Logistic regression analyzed mental health outcomes and harassment.Results: The study found significant variations in anxiety and depression scores, along with a notable decrease in the personal accomplishment dimension of burnout. Harassment prevalence was above 90%, and most victims were disturbed by harassment suffered. While a direct correlation between harassment victimization and decreased mental health was not found, seeking help exacerbated suffering, and surgical program residents had a smaller increase in depression and emotional exhaustion.Conclusions: To the extent of our knowledge, this is the first longitudinal study on mental health and harassment among medical residents. Mental suffering after taking action against harassment suggests that safe environments for addressing these issues are lacking in residency. Further studies concerning surgical residents could shed light on their lower levels of suffering.
