Validity of chronic restraint stress for modeling anhedonic-like behavior in rodents: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Ye Mao et al.

Summary: This study conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the impact of chronic restraint stress (CRS) model on anhedonic-like behavior in rodents. The results showed a decreased sucrose preference in the stress group compared to controls. Rats were found to be more susceptible to restraint stress, demonstrating inter-species variability.

An entorhinal-visual cortical circuit regulates depression-like behaviors

Jian Lu et al.

Summary: This study identifies a cortical circuit that connects the entorhinal cortex to the visual cortex and bidirectionally regulates depression-like behaviors in mice. The findings suggest that the entorhinal-visual cortical pathway plays a crucial role in the development of depression and may serve as a potential target for treating major depressive disorder.

Acupuncture Ameliorates Depressive Behaviors by Modulating the Expression of Hippocampal Iba-1 and HMGB1 in Rats Exposed to Chronic Restraint Stress

Lu Chen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the antidepressant mechanism of acupuncture in modulating neuroinflammation induced by HMGB1 in rats subjected to chronic restraint stress. The results suggest that acupuncture can alleviate depressive behavior and inhibit microglial activation and HMGB1 expression in the hippocampus, highlighting its role in stress-induced neuroinflammation in depression.

Global prevalence and burden of depressive and anxiety disorders in 204 countries and territories in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic

Damian F. Santomauro et al.

Summary: This study aimed to quantify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the prevalence and burden of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders globally in 2020. The findings showed that the pandemic led to increased prevalence of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders, with females and younger age groups being more affected. The pandemic has created an increased urgency to strengthen mental health systems in most countries and mitigation strategies are needed to address the burden of these mental disorders.
