Summary: The study shows that deaths of despair are concentrated within a population segment that experiences multiple disadvantages in New Zealand and Denmark. Individuals in the top 5% of the population in multiple health and social-service sectors in both countries are at elevated risk for deaths from suicide, drugs, and alcohol, as well as deaths from other causes. These deaths are associated with sex and age across both countries.

Summary: This study examines the influence of societal norms on body image among lesbian women and whether sexual orientation moderates this relationship. The results suggest that lesbian women have similar awareness and internalization of societal norms compared to heterosexual women, but experience less body dissatisfaction on average. However, at higher levels of internalization, lesbian women experience similar levels of body dissatisfaction as heterosexual women.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the motivations and behaviors of Australian women aged 75 and above regarding ongoing breast cancer screening. The study found that women who regularly undergo screening expressed a desire to continue and strongly believed in the benefits of screening. However, there was limited information and discussion about the benefits and risks of screening beyond age 75, leading to confusion and feelings of discrimination among some women who were no longer invited for screening.

Summary: This systematic review examines the cost-effectiveness of interventions to prevent and treat eating disorders. The findings indicate that all interventions offer value for money and have good quality economic evidence. However, further research is required to understand the implementation of these interventions.

Summary: The study found that insomnia is associated with daytime sleepiness, hypervigilance, and mobile phone use before bed. Greater sleepiness leads to longer completion time for tasks and has a negative impact on performance. Therefore, objective measures of sleepiness are needed, along with the design of automated interventions and systems that promote better quality sleep.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate if aerobic capacity varies during different phases of the menstrual cycle in female athletes. The results showed that there were no significant differences in aerobic capacity between the early follicular phase, late follicular phase, and midluteal phase, indicating similar aerobic capacity despite hormonal variations.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of home-based and remotely monitored tDCS treatment in patients with both MCI and depression. The results showed that active tDCS decreased delta wave activation and increased beta wave activation compared to sham stimulation, and the increase in beta activity was correlated with cognitive enhancement. However, there was no significant difference between active and sham tDCS in terms of depressive symptoms and cognitive functions.

Summary: This study examined the effect of self-controlled video feedback on the learning of tactical motor skills in tennis, and found that the self-controlled group showed significantly greater improvements in tactical performance compared to the yoked group. These improvements were not influenced by learners' self-efficacy and self-regulative skills.

Summary: The present study examined the effects of acute caffeine supplementation on performance during resistance training alone or in combination with aerobic training. The results showed that caffeine supplementation was not effective in minimizing the interference effect of aerobic training on strength performance. However, it did improve strength performance during the first set of both aerobic and resistance training sessions.

Summary: Severe brain damage can cause disorders of consciousness, such as coma, unresponsive wakefulness syndrome, and a minimally conscious state. Visual stimulation is widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of DOC. Light therapy has been proposed as a potential treatment target for DOC. However, there is currently no international unified standard for visual stimulation and light therapy in DOC, highlighting the need for an international consensus.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of Cognitive Assessment for Stroke Patients (CASP) and provide a reliable basis for its clinical application in China. The results showed that the Chinese version of CASP had good content validity, structural validity, concurrent validity, internal consistency, interrater consistency, and retesting reliability, making it an effective tool for evaluating cognitive dysfunction in stroke patients.

Summary: Eating disorder clinicians/researchers (EDCR) have fewer dietary restraint and eating concerns, but poorer cognitive flexibility compared to general mental health clinicians/researchers (MHCR). Working in the ED field may be a protective factor against developing certain disordered eating behaviors.

Summary: This study examined the factor structure, internal consistency, construct validity, and measurement invariance of the 10-item Cognitive Affective Mindfulness Scale-Revised (CAMS-R) in cancer patients. The results showed that the CAMS-R had a reasonable fit and excellent internal consistency. The CAMS-R total score was significantly associated with other mindfulness measures and self-compassion, and was negatively associated with anxiety, depressive symptoms, rumination, psychological inflexibility, and avoidant coping. The measurement invariance testing indicated that the CAMS-R was invariant across different populations.

Summary: A key limitation of studying emotion regulation behavior is the inability to describe individual differences in the use of tactics. To address this issue, researchers introduced emotion regulation convoys as a tool to understand the hierarchy and effectiveness of preferred tactics in everyday life situations. The study found that older adults used a lower proportion of negativity-downregulating tactics compared to younger adults, and younger adults were more negatively affected by these tactics. Overall, using positivity-upregulating tactics predicted better mood post-regulation. Older adults' emotion regulation convoys may consist of more effective tactics, resulting in more positive mood post-regulation.
