Summary: This study examined the relationship among family accommodation (FA), posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), and functional impairment. The results showed that FA was significantly associated with PTSS and functional impairment. Baseline FA partially mediated the relationship between baseline PTSS and functional impairment. Changes in FA from pre- to post-treatment were associated with relevant outcome variables at post-treatment and 12-month follow-up.

Summary: This study used a polygenic score (PGS) and electroencephalography (EEG) data analysis to identify potential predictors for treatment outcomes in major depressive disorder (MDD). The results suggest the existence of a stable EEG network related to antidepressant-response that has potential as a predictor for MDD treatment, particularly in the case of venlafaxine.

Summary: The traditional approaches to measuring depression after traumatic brain injury (TBI) have limitations. This study adopted a symptom-oriented approach and found that post-TBI depression is highly heterogeneous. Different depressive symptoms have distinct associations with personal, injury-related, treatment, and outcome factors.

Summary: A potential barrier to effective cognitive-behavioral therapy for patients with hoarding disorder is treatment retention and compliance. This study found that abnormal brain activity in regions related to executive functioning, such as the insula, parietal, and premotor areas, was significantly associated with treatment compliance in hoarding disorder patients.

Summary: This study utilized the XGBoost model and network analysis to identify critical factors related to depression and explore their associations. The results revealed significant positive associations between anxiety and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), social anxiety disorder (SAD) and appearance anxiety, as well as negative associations between sleep quality and anxiety, sleep quality and PTSD among individuals with childhood trauma experiences and depression.

Summary: In this study, the state of white matter structures in bipolar disorder patients was investigated using TBSS and FD analyses. The results showed diffusion abnormalities primarily located in the temporo-parietal network, while no significant differences were found in the morphological complexity of white matter structures. Individual patients showed localized significant deviations in fractal dimension values.

Summary: The study found that having a purpose in life is associated with less subjective stress. This association is similar across different age, sex, race, ethnicity, and education backgrounds, and is not moderated by psychological distress. The findings also suggest that this association is generally consistent across different cultural contexts. Therefore, having a purpose in life may contribute to better mental and physical health by reducing subjective stress.

Summary: This study examines the effectiveness of an 8-week automated interactive text messaging intervention for depression and anxiety. The results show high engagement and usability of the intervention, with significant reductions in depression symptoms. However, reductions in anxiety symptoms were not significant. Participants suggested improvements for the intervention.

Summary: This study used quantile regression to evaluate the associations between sleep duration and depression across the entire distribution of depression severity. The findings revealed that the association between sleep duration and depression was more pronounced at higher levels of depression severity. Additionally, the association between short sleep duration and depression was stronger in females and individuals with chronic diseases.

Summary: Self-harm is common in young people, with girls having higher rates than boys. Gender differences in exposure to risk factors such as adverse events and problematic interpersonal relationships, emotional wellbeing, and social media use may contribute to the increased risk of self-harm in girls. Further research is needed to understand why these differences exist and develop gender-specific approaches to self-harm management.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of different sleep hours on the risk of cognitive decline, taking into account morningness-eveningness types. The findings suggest that the morningness group had the lowest risk of cognitive decline within the 7-9 hour sleep duration. However, when considering sleep quality, the optimal sleep duration varied among different types.

Summary: This study evaluates the relationship between maternal depression history and current severity with positive affect socialization and offspring's social outcomes. The results suggest that current level of maternal depression is associated with more social problems and lower quality of best friendships in children. However, positive affect socialization is not related to maternal depression history or current levels, except for a greater likelihood of mothers joining their children in expressing positive affect. Treatment history among these mothers may explain this finding.

Summary: Depressive symptoms in individuals with type 2 diabetes were found to be associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases, with dose-response relationships observed between depressive symptoms and various cardiovascular outcomes. This suggests that screening for depressive symptoms could help predict cardiovascular disease outcomes in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Summary: Social factors play a crucial role in the development and severity of depression. Social support serves as a protective factor against depression, particularly in peripartum populations. However, stigma and discrimination have a weaker effect on depression in clinical populations and ethnic minorities.

Summary: This study developed a predictive model using a machine learning algorithm to assess the risk of non-suicidal self-injurious behavior (NSSI) in Chinese adolescents more accurately. The results show that depression and anxiety are the top predictors of NSSI in adolescents. Additionally, factors such as gender, age, living arrangements, psychiatric consultation history, stress, depression, anxiety, tolerance, and emotional expression were found to be associated with the risk of NSSI in adolescents.

Summary: Mental imagery plays an important role in cognitive and emotional processes. Individuals with anxiety disorders show faster and better processing of state/psychological stimuli. The left superior frontal gyrus is differentially activated during state/psychological imagery in anxious individuals.
