Disruptions to the social determinants of health and mental health indicators during the pandemic in eight countries
The social determinants of health (SDoH) shape both the risk of mental disorders and access to treatment. There is ample evidence detailing the decline in mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic. However, there is a gap in our understanding of the association between disruptions to SDoH and adverse psychological indicators in different contexts. Data were collected through a multi-country, random, anonymous, opt-in, cross-sectional online surv…
Depression and PTSD among Houston Residents who Experienced Hurricane Harvey and Covid-19
Marital rape and its impact on the mental health of women in India
This systematic review aims to describe the prevalence of marital rape in India, the analytic methods employed in its study, and its implications on mental health of victims. Online databases, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science and APA Psych, were systematically searched for articles published up until November 2020. Selected articles included those published from or studies conducted in India where the primary exposure was marital rape. The primary …
Media Exposure and the Risk of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder Following a Mass traumatic Event
Introduction: Following mass traumatic events, greater exposure to traditional media like television (TV) about the event is associated with higher burden of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). However, we know little about how social media exposure, combined with other media sources, shapes the population burden of PTSD following mass traumatic events. Materials and Methods: We built a microsimulation of 1,18,000 agents that was demographical…
Low assets and financial stressors associated with higher depression during Covid-19 in a nationally representative sample of US adults
BACKGROUND: COVID-19 and related containment policies have caused or heightened financial stressors for many in the USA. We assessed the relation between assets, financial stressors and probable depression during the COVID-19 pandemic. METHODS: Between 31 March 2020 and 13 April 2020, we surveyed a probability-based, nationally representative sample of US adults ages 18 and older using the COVID-19 and Life stressors Impact on Mental Health and W…
Prevalence of Depression Symptoms in US Adults Before and During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Importance: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and the policies to contain it have been a near ubiquitous exposure in the US with unknown effects on depression symptoms. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of and risk factors associated with depression symptoms among US adults during vs before the COVID-19 pandemic. Design, Setting, and Participants: This nationally representative survey study used 2 population-based surveys of US…
Census 2020—A Preventable Public Health Catastrophe
Potential Impact of 2020 US Decennial Census Data Collection on Disaster Preparedness and Population Mental Health
Increasing in frequency and impact in the United States and worldwide, disasters can lead to serious mental health consequences. Although US census data are essential for disaster preparedness and the identification of community-level risk factors for adverse postdisaster mental health outcomes, the US Census Bureau faces many challenges as we approach 2020 Decennial Census data collection. Despite the utility of the information provided by the C…
Population health in an era of rising income inequality
Gender, Position of Authority, and the Risk of Depression and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder among a National Sample of U.S. Reserve Component Personnel
Trajectories of posttraumatic stress symptoms after civilian or deployment traumatic event experiences
Holding the source population constant, PTSS trajectory models were similar for civilian and deployment-related trauma, suggesting that irrespective of traumatic event experienced there might be some universal trajectory patterns. Thus, the differences in source populations may have induced the heterogeneity observed among prior PTSS trajectory studies. (PsycINFO Database Record
Weighing the evidence for harm from long-term treatment with antipsychotic medications
Research findings supporting the use of antipsychotic medication for acute treatment of schizophrenia are relatively consistent and undisputed. However, the rationale for recommending long-term antipsychotic medication treatment-the current standard of care treatment strategy-is unclear. A controversial hypothesis proposed recently suggests people with schizophrenia who are exposed to long-term treatment with antipsychotic medications have worse …
