Alone on the frontline: The first report of PTSD prevalence and risk in de-occupied Ukrainian villages

CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: PTSD prevalence was higher than other war-exposed populations. Findings highlight the urgent mental health burden among UPROANF, emphasizing the need for integrated care models addressing both trauma and physical health. Given the significance of loneliness as a risk factor, findings suggest the potential for group-based, mind-body interventions to holistically address the physical, mental, and social needs of this highly traumatized, underserved population.PMID:38605592 | DOI:10.1177/00207640241242030
