These conditions are characterized by various symptoms, such as malaise, fatigue, and cognitive dysfunction, and are considered to reflect different underlying pathologies. Using a cluster analysis, we hypothesized that long COVID may have different psychosocial outcomes depending on the phenotype. This study is based on the COVID-19 RECOVERY STUDY II (CORES II) conducted in 20 centers in Japan. CORES II included patients aged 20 years and older who were hospitalized and discharged alive between April and September 2021. In CORES II, information collected at hospitalization was followed by an investigation one year after diagnosis into post-infection symptoms, physical and mental health, and patients' social circumstances. Long COVID symptoms, based on symptoms one month after infection, and psychosocial well-being, including anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, and quality of life (QOL), one year after onset were assessed via questionnaires provided one year after diagnosis. We performed a cluster analysis based on long COVID symptoms. We also compared the psychosocial status between clusters. We identified five clusters of symptoms in 746 patients. These clusters were characterized by severe multi-organ dysfunction, olfactory and gustatory disturbances, shortness of breath, muscle weakness, and hair loss. The severe multi-organ dysfunction cluster included a large number of patients with malaise and who were more likely to have a poor psychosocial status one year after onset. In addition, the olfactory and gustatory disturbance cluster appeared to have the second highest depression and anxiety scores after the multi-organ dysfunction cluster. The results obtained on the five-symptom clusters suggest that the multi-organ dysfunction phenotype with malaise and olfactory and gustatory disturbances has psychosocial consequences. Patients with these phenotypes require more extensive follow-ups and interventions.</p>","PeriodicalId":54535,"journal":{"name":"Psychology Health & Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143442783","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}

Given the effect of acne on one's psychological well-being, investigating this relationship is important. This review aims to synthesize the main findings on the relationship between acne, self-esteem, and mental health. The SciELO, PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science databases were searched. We used the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology for scoping reviews and the PRISMA protocol and Rayyan tool for the selection and inclusion of studies. The terms used in the electronic search were 'acne' and 'self-esteem'. After reading the abstracts and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 10 studies were selected for quantitative synthesis. The findings of this study indicate that patients with acne experience more mental health disorders, with their subjective perceptions linked to depression, anxiety, and incapacity. Females tend to have lower self-esteem, and their assessments vary depending on the evaluation method used. These results clarify the relationship between acne, self-esteem, and mental health. Furthermore, they provide evidence of factors that increase vulnerability to psychological impacts associated with acne. In conclusion, the literature emphasizes the importance of ongoing research on acne, its impact on self-esteem, and its relationship with other psychological dimensions. While acne is not lethal, it can be disabling, lead to suffering, and negatively affect daily functioning. Effective treatment of this condition requires an integrated approach that combines medical and psychological care.</p>","PeriodicalId":54535,"journal":{"name":"Psychology Health & Medicine","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143426664","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}

Data were gathered using a personal information form and validated scales, including the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale, Bergen Insomnia Scale, and 6-item Kutcher Depression Scale. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 25.0, AMOS V 24.0, and G*Power 3.1 statistical package programs.

A significant positive relationship was observed between social media addiction and both insomnia and depression. Additionally, insomnia and depression were significantly correlated. Social media usage time was positively associated with higher levels of social media addiction, insomnia, and depression. Depression was found to mediate the relationship between social media addiction and insomnia.

One year after the pandemic's first peak, we aimed to assess the psychotraumatic impact and burnout among ICU HCW and to examine the relationship between these disorders, and perceived workplace stressors.

The chaotic environment caused by disasters can lead to mental health disorders in HCWs, similar to those experienced by disaster victims. Experiencing mental health disorders can hinder HCW's professional approach to intervention. HCWs should not be overlooked for the possibility of experiencing mental health disorders while providing healthcare services during disasters. Therefore, this study aims to examine the impact of psychological resilience and trauma exposure on PTSD, depression, and sleep disorders among HCWs involved in the Kahramanmaraş Earthquakes, which were Turkey's most devastating earthquakes. In this quantitative research, a survey technique was employed, reaching 642 hCWs involved in the Kahramanmaraş Earthquakes. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to test the impact of variables on each other. According to the SEM results, trauma exposure in the HCWs had a significant and positive effect on PTSD (β=+0.899, <i>p</i> = 0.000), depression (β=+0.685, <i>p</i> = 0.000), and sleep disorders (β=+0.603, <i>p</i> = 0.000).

Surprisingly, psychological resilience had a significant and positive effect on sleep disorders (β=+0.692, <i>p</i> = 0.000). In conclusion, while trauma exposure led to PTSD, depression, and sleep disorders in the HCWs, psychological resilience mitigated PTSD and depression.
