Childhood Parental Psychiatric Hospitalization and Offspring Suicidal Behavior, Violent Crime, and Violent Victimization
Population-level studies consistently report associations between parental psychiatric disorders and violence-related outcomes in offspring, but it remains unclear whether these reflect causal effects of parental illness or shared familial vulnerabilities. Using Swedish national registers, we followed 2,978,645 individuals born 1975-2005 from age 15 until the first violence-related outcome, emigration, death, age 25, or end of 2020. We estimated …
Case report
These preliminary findings suggest the potential of accelerated high-frequency tACS as a potential crisis intervention for adolescent MDD-SI, while highlighting the need for controlled clinical trials to establish efficacy and optimize stimulation parameters
Application of machine learning in predicting adolescent Internet behavioral addiction
The detection rate of Internet addiction is higher in males than in females, and adolescents with impulsive, extroverted, psychotic, neurotic, obsessive, depressive, and hostile traits are more prone to developing Internet addiction. While the overall performance of the machine learning models for predicting adolescent Internet addiction is moderate, the extreme gradient boosting method outperforms others, effectively identifying risk factors and…
Impaired response inhibition to negative emotional stimuli in depressed adolescents with non-suicidal self-injury
Depressed adolescents with NSSI showed increased P3d amplitudes, enhanced Delta/Theta ERS, and heightened Theta/Alpha ERD when receiving negative emotional stimuli, suggesting that depressed adolescents with NSSI have impaired response inhibition, which may contribute to the development of NSSI
The effects of parent-child relationship, study stress, and mobile phone use on depressive symptoms among Chinese elementary school students
These results emphasize the importance of nurturing parent-child relationship, monitoring study stress, and managing mobile phone usage to support students' mental health. Furthermore, the findings suggest that the impact of mobile phone usage on the mental health of elementary school students varies in complexity across different parent-child relationship contexts, providing valuable insights and recommendations for developing targeted preventiv…
A comparative study of anxiety symptoms in Chinese and Rwandan adolescents
The GAD-7 showed reliability in measuring generalized anxiety in both Chinese and Rwandese adolescents, confirming its cross-cultural construct validity. However, partial scalar invariance suggests that while the GAD-7 effectively detects anxiety symptoms, the severity of reported symptoms may not be directly comparable across cultures due to response patterns and possible linguistic factors. These findings highlight the importance of culturally …
Impulsivity and social support as intervening and interactive variables in the link between childhood socioeconomic status and mental health among first-year college students
Our findings demonstrate that impulsivity serves as a partial intervening variable in the relationship between childhood SES and the mental health of first-year college students. However, higher levels of social support were linked to weaker negative associations between impulsivity and both childhood SES and mental health. Interventions that focus on managing impulsivity and increasing social support for first-year college students from low soci…
Childhood and adolescence outcomes in offspring to parents with bipolar disorder
BACKGROUND: Offspring of parents with bipolar disorder have increased risks of their own psychopathology. However, a large-scale survey of psychiatric, somatic, and adverse social outcomes up to adulthood, which could aid in prioritizing and tailoring prevention, is lacking. It also remains to clarify how risks are modified by other parental factors. METHODS: Swedish population registers were linked to compare offspring having (N = 24,788) and no…
Assessing anxiety symptom severity in Rwandese adolescents
The GAD-7 can be used in cross-group comparison of generalized anxiety disorder prevalence, and we acknowledge that full scalar invariance is generally difficult to confirm, especially due to gender differences. We recommend that future studies further investigate populations living in rural areas and conduct trials that will focus on anxiety-specific treatment in Rwandan Clinical health care centers to determine the diagnostic accuracy of this s…
Effects of electroconvulsive therapy on inflammatory markers and depressive symptoms in adolescents with major depressive disorder
While initial inflammatory marker levels did not predict the response to ECT, the post-treatment measures appeared to be linked to clinical improvement. These findings suggest ECT's potential effectiveness in treating severe MDD in adolescents and point to the possible predictive value of inflammatory markers in therapeutic outcomes. The study contributes to our understanding of the biopsychosocial framework of MDD and indicates that ECT may be a…
The Association between Physical Activity and Intrinsic Capacity in Chinese Older Adults and Its Connection to Primary Care
Improving both general and leisure PA can be an effective way to prevent the decline in IC among older adults, thus reducing the personal and public load of primary healthcare for aging countries such as China
Development and Validation of a Rapid Assessment Version of the Assessment Survey of Primary Care in China
Background: Measuring quality of primary care has attracted much attention around the world. Our team has developed and validated an Assessment Survey of Primary Care (ASPC) for evaluating quality of primary care in China. To facilitate the daily use of ASPC, this study aimed to develop and validate a rapid assessment version of ASPC (RA-ASPC) in China. Methods: This is a multi-phase study on 21 experts and 1,184 patients from 12 primary care fac…
A Resting State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study of Unmedicated Adolescents With Non-suicidal Self-Injury Behaviors
We found that in ALFF, fALFF and ReHo, the significant differences between nsMDDs and nnsMDDs are mainly located in default mode network (DMN) and visual network (VN), and there may be brain regions related to NSSI in DMN and VN. The significant differences brain regions in ALFF, fALFF and ReHo between nsMDDs and nnsMDDs were related to the total score of the relevant clinical psychological scale, and may be related to NSSI
Association between Primary Care Utilization and Emergency Room or Hospital Inpatient Services Utilization among the Middle-Aged and Elderly in a Self-Referral System
With rapid economic growth and aging, hospital inpatient and emergency services utilization has grown rapidly, and has emphasized an urgent requirement to adjust and optimize the structure of health service utilization. Studies have shown that primary care is an effective way to reduce inpatient and emergency room (ER) service utilization. This study aims to examine whether middle-aged and elderly individuals who selected primary care outpatient …
Disruption of Neural Activity and Functional Connectivity in Adolescents With Major Depressive Disorder Who Engage in Non-suicidal Self-Injury
Background: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), which commonly occurs during adolescence, often co-occurs with major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the underlying neurobiological mechanisms in adolescents with MDD who engage in NSSI remain unclear. The current study examined the aberrant local neural activity in certain areas of the visual regions and the default mode network (DMN) and the resting-state functional connectivity (rs-FC) in change…
Effect of Family Practice Contract Services on the Perceived Quality of Primary Care among Patients with Multimorbidity
Family practice contract services, an important primary-care reform policy for improving primary healthcare quality in China, incorporate patients with multiple chronic conditions into the priority coverage groups and focus on their management. This study aims to explore the family practice contract services' effectiveness in improving the quality of primary care experienced by this population. A cross-sectional study using a three-stage sampling…
Association between Primary Healthcare and Medical Expenditures in a Context of Hospital-Oriented Healthcare System in China
Total health expenditure in China has grown considerably since a new round of health system reform was enacted in 2009. Researchers have shown that strengthening primary healthcare may be an option for countries to solve the rapid expansion of their medical expenditures. This study was designed to explore the association between the strength of primary healthcare and medical expenditures, in the context of the hospital-oriented healthcare system …
Association of primary care physician supply with maternal and child health in China
The sufficient supply of primary care physician was associated with improved maternal and child health outcomes in China, especially in the less-developed western region. Policies on effective and proportional allocation of resources should be made and conducted to strengthen primary care system and eliminate geographical disparities
Equity in patient experiences of primary care in community health centers using primary care assessment tool
Equity in the primary care patient experiences between rural-to-urban migrants and urban locals seems to have been achieved to some extent. However, there is room for improvement in the equity of coordination of care and comprehensiveness. Policy makers should consider strengthening these two dimensions by integrating the health care system. More attention should be focused on helping migrants break down language and cultural barriers and improvi…
