Mental health consequences among Sudanese due to the armed conflicts and civil unrest of 2023: a cross-sectional study

First-contact patients with a community mental health service in rural Greece: A 3-year prospective study of treatment attendance and its co-relations
CONCLUSION: Rates of subsequent attendance after initial assessment in a rural community mental healthcare setting were rather low in the present study. Several variables that have been previously associated with service engagement were found to be related in this study too, whereas other were not. Research on treatment engagement in rural treatment settings should be ongoing to reveal all associated factors.PMID:38193429 | DOI:10.1177/00207640231212097 (Source: The International Journal of Social Psychiatry)

Outcomes of psychosocial interventions for homeless individuals with mental illness: A systematic review

Further research is required to explore the most effective strategies that address homelessness and mental illness.PMID:38174711 | DOI:10.1177/00207640231217173 (Source: The International Journal of Social Psychiatry)

Similar and different? A cross-cultural comparison of the prevalence, course of and factors associated with suicidal thoughts and behaviors in first-episode psychosis in Chennai, India and Montreal, Canada
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first study to compare STBs in FEP between two distinct geo-sociocultural contexts (an HIC and an LMIC). At both sites, STBs reduced after treatment initiation, suggesting that early intervention reduces STBs across contexts. At both sites, for some patients, STBs persisted or first appeared during follow-up, indicating need for suicide prevention throughout follow-up. Our study demonstrates contextual variations in rates and factors associated with STBs. This has implications for tailoring suicide prevention and makes the case for more research on STBs in FEP in diverse contexts.PMID:38174721 | DO...
