Sexual Health in Psychiatry
Sexual health is integral to mental well-being, yet it remains under-addressed in psychiatric care. Mental disorders and psychotropic medications can cause sexual dysfunctions. Despite its clinical relevance, sexual health is often not routinely assessed or discussed in psychiatric assessment and treatment, possibly due to insufficient training, stigma, and clinicians’ uncertainty. This pilot study examined how sexuality is addressed in psychiatr…
Knowledge About Psychosocial Interventions Among Individuals With Severe Mental Illness
Depression in patients with severe somatic disease – study protocol of the prospective Desie-study
The study was prospectively registered in the German Clinical Trials Registry and WHO International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (registration number: DRKS00033245, date of registration: 14 December 2023) prior to the start of recruitment
Sex Work and Transactional Sex Among Chemsex Users in German-Speaking Countries
Sex work and transactional sex (SWTS), as well as Chemsex, the intentional use of specific substances aiming to enhance sexual experiences among men who have sex with men (MSM), are associated with high-risk sexual behaviors including unprotected sex and injection drug use and are consequently associated to worse health outcomes, such as higher rates of several sexually transmitted infections (STIs). The main objective of this project was to inve…
Predictors of social inclusion among adults with severe mental illness
Background: Promoting social inclusion is crucial for people living with severe mental illness (SMI), who often experience high levels of social exclusion. However, research that uses a psychometric social inclusion measure to identify factors that determine varying levels of social inclusion in individuals with SMI is scarce. Aims: This study aimed to examine to what extent people with SMI feel socially included and to identify factors associate…
Reasons to move—a cross-sectional study to identify factors promoting regular exercise
Regular physical activity can prevent various physical and mental illnesses or improve their prognosis. However, only about half of the German population meets the WHO recommendations for physical activity. The aim of this study was to identify factors that influence engagement in regular exercise and could help increase physical activity levels in the general population. To this end, we conducted a cross-sectional study using questionnaire instr…
Implementing exercise recommendations into clinical practice—new findings from mental health professionals' and patients' perspectives in a university psychiatric setting
Introduction To date, concrete recommendations for physical activity in psychiatric treatments are limited. Thus, we evaluated knowledge, barriers and beliefs associated with exercise prescription of mental health professionals (MHP) to people with mental illnesses. We aimed to identify patients' barriers to exercise participation and to work out options addressing these barriers. Methods In our cross-sectional and questionnaire-based investigati…
The multimodal Munich Clinical Deep Phenotyping study to bridge the translational gap in severe mental illness treatment research
The identification of cross-diagnostic and diagnosis-specific biotype-informed subgroups of patients and the translational dissection of those subgroups may help to pave the way toward precision medicine with artificial intelligence-supported tailored interventions and treatment. This aim is particularly important in psychiatry, a field where innovation is urgently needed because specific symptom domains, such as negative symptoms and cognitive d…
How to Reduce Mental Health Burden in Health Care Workers During Covid-19?–A Scoping Review of Guideline Recommendations
The COVID-19 pandemic has posed an unprecedented demand and a huge burden for healthcare workers (HCWs) worldwide, with alarming reports of heightened mental health problems. To counteract these mental health challenges, guidelines and recommendations for the support of HCWs during the COVID-19 pandemic have been published. With this scoping review and guideline evaluation, we aim to provide a critical overview of these guidelines and recommendat…
Medication Adherence in a Cross-Diagnostic Sample of Patients From the Affective-to-Psychotic Spectrum
In a large and cross-diagnostic sample, we could show that a higher level of conscientiousness, a higher number of antipsychotic medication, a better quality of life within the environmental domain, and the absence of substance abuse contribute to a better medication adherence independent of the underlying disorder
Effects of 1 mA and 2 mA transcranial direct current stimulation on working memory performance in healthy participants
The Influence of Continuous Exercising on Chronotropic Incompetence in Multi-Episode Schizophrenia
People with schizophrenia die on average 15-20 years earlier than age and gender matched controls in the general population. An essential part of this excess mortality in people with schizophrenia is caused by physical illnesses. Among the physical illnesses, cardiovascular disease (CVD) has been identified as the most common natural cause of death in up to 40-45% of the cases. Chronotropic incompetence (CI) is defined as the inability of the hea…
Parameter-Based Evaluation of Attentional Impairments in Schizophrenia and Their Modulation by Prefrontal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
With regard to question (i) above, these findings are indicative of a processing speed and short-term memory deficit as primary sources of attentional deficits in schizophrenia. With regard to question (ii), the efficacy of single-dose anodal tDCS for improving (speed aspects of visual) cognition, it appears that prefrontal tDCS (at the settings used in the present study), rather than ameliorating the processing speed deficit in schizophrenia, ac…
Impairments of Motor-Cortex Responses to Unilateral and Bilateral Direct Current Stimulation in Schizophrenia
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive stimulation technique that can be applied to modulate cortical activity through induction of cortical plasticity. Since various neuropsychiatric disorders are characterized by fluctuations in cortical activity levels (e.g., schizophrenia), tDCS is increasingly investigated as a treatment tool. Several studies have shown that the induction of cortical plasticity following classical, …
