Psychoactive Substance Use and Its Association with Mental Health Symptomatology Among Latvian Medical Students
Medical students are at elevated risk for psychoactive substance use and mental health challenges due to academic pressures and environmental stressors. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and trends of psychoactive substance use among medical students at Riga Stradins University (RSU) and to examine associations with symptoms of anxiety, depression, and resilience to stress. A bilingual, anonymous cross-sectional study was conducted usi…
Students' mental health during the pandemic
The current study reports that students are at high risk for depression during the COVID-19 pandemic and identified specific risk factors. It also suggested a role of believing in conspiracy theories. Further research is important, as it is targeted intervention in students' groups that are vulnerable both concerning mental health and conspiracism
Case report
The present case report describes a young man diagnosed with schizophrenia and presents a "revolving door" (RD) phenomenon. He was hospitalized in an acute psychiatric clinic three times in 1 year. After each hospitalization, he was discharged with incompletely reduced psychotic symptoms, persistent negative symptoms, low functioning, lack of insight, and adherence. He had an insufficient response to maximally tolerated doses of antipsychotic mon…
Point prevalence and sex-specific associated factors of depression in Latvian general population
The prevalence of depression in the general adult population is 6.4%, with the most significant sex-specific factors associated with depression for males - being divorced, widowed, or living separately, and for females it was poor education and economic inactivity
Determinants of Anxiety in the General Latvian Population During the Covid-19 State of Emergency
Background The COVID-19 pandemic and its restrictive public health measures have seriously affected mental health of society. Social, psychological, and health-related factors have been linked to anxiety in the general population. Aim We investigate the association of various sociopsychological and health-related determinants of anxiety and identify the predicting factors for anxiety in the general population during the COVID-19 state of emergenc…
Validation of the generalized anxiety disorder scales (GAD-7 and GAD-2) in primary care settings in Latvia
This is the first study to report criterion validity of the Latvian and Russian (for Latvia) versions of the GAD-7 and GAD-2, assessed in a nationwide study conducted at the primary care level
Association of Depression and Anxiety With the 10-Year Risk of Cardiovascular Mortality in a Primary Care Population of Latvia Using the SCORE System
Background: Depression and anxiety have been recognized as independent risk factors for both the development and prognosis of cardiovascular (CV) diseases (CVD). The Systematic Coronary Risk Evaluation (SCORE) function measures the 10-year risk of a fatal CVD and is a crucial tool for guiding CV patient management. This study is the first in Latvia to investigate the association of depression and anxiety with the 10-year CV mortality risk in a pr…
Association of depression and anxiety with cardiovascular co-morbidity in a primary care population in Latvia
Current depressive symptoms (PHQ-9 ≥ 10) and a lifetime depressive episode (according to the MINI) were significantly associated with increased risk of CV morbidity. Therefore, CV patients should be screened and treated for depression to potentially improve the prognosis of CVDs. Enhanced training and integration of mental health treatment in Latvian primary care settings may improve clinical outcomes
