Specific effects of five subtypes of childhood maltreatment on suicide behaviours in Chinese adolescents: the moderating effect of sex and residence
CONCLUSIONS: Five subtypes of childhood maltreatment have specific and non-equivalence associations with suicide behaviours. Emotional abuse may have the strongest effect, and sexual abuse have an acute effect on suicide behaviours. Suicide prevention programs for Chinese adolescents could focus on those who experienced emotional, physical and sexual abuse. Furthermore, strategies should be tailored by sex and residence, and rural females deserve more attention.PMID:37431295 | DOI:10.1017/S2045796023000604 (Source: Epidemiology and Psychiatric Sciences)

Post-traumatic stress disorder among LGBTQ people: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: LGBTQ people are at higher risk of PTSD compared with their cisgender/heterosexual peers. This evidence may contribute to the public awareness on LGBTQ mental health needs and suggest supportive strategies as well as preventive interventions (e.g., supportive programs, counselling, and destigmatizing efforts) as parts of a tailored health-care planning aimed to reduce psychiatric morbidity in this at-risk population.PMID:37431310 | DOI:10.1017/S2045796023000586 (Source: Epidemiology and Psychiatric Sciences)

Substance use before or during pregnancy and the risk of child mortality, perinatal morbidities and congenital anomalies
CONCLUSIONS: Increased risks of child mortality, perinatal morbidities or congenital anomalies were found in women with substance use during pregnancy. From estimates before and after adjustments, our results showed that having outpatient visits or medical utilizations during pregnancy were associated with substantially attenuated HRs on mortality in the substance-exposed cohort. Therefore, the excess mortality risk might be partially explained by the lack of relevant antenatal clinical care. Our finding may suggest that the importance of early identification, specific abstinence program and access to appropriate antenatal...

Frequency and machine learning predictors of severe depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation among university students
CONCLUSIONS: Students' severe mental health problems reached worrying levels, and demographic factors were poor predictors of mental health outcomes. Further research including people with lived experience will be crucial to better assess students' mental health needs and improve the predictive outcome for those most at risk of worsening symptoms.PMID:37417237 | DOI:10.1017/S2045796023000550 (Source: Epidemiology and Psychiatric Sciences)
