Eating disorders among international migrants: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: Migrants may have elevated exposure to stressors, which can affect their physical and mental well-being. However, migrants often experience a healthy immigrant effect, the applicability of this phenomena to eating disorders is unknown. We aimed to synthesize the available literature and estimate a summary measure of prevalence odds ratio for eating disorders in migrant populations compared to local populations.

Relationship of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder With Bipolar Disorder: A Systematic Review.

Since depression represents the most predominant mood polarity in bipolar disorder (BD), the prevalence rates of a diagnosis of premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) in women with BD and those of a diagnosis of BD in women with PMDD deserve systematic review. A systematic search of PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and Cochrane Reviews databases was carried out on November 19, 2021, using the terms [late luteal phase disorder OR premenstrual dysphoric disorder] AND comorbidity AND bipolar disorder. Articles from 1987-2021 were searched.

Users' perceptions about receiving personalized depression risk information: findings from a qualitative study.

Objectives: To understand users' perceptions about receiving their personalized depression risk score and to gain an understanding about how to improve the efficiency of risk communication from the user perspective.

Methods: A qualitative study embedded in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) on evaluating the impact of providing personalized depression risk information on psychological harms and benefits. The participants (20 males and 20 females) were randomly selected from the intervention arm of the RCT after the 12-month assessment.

Barriers to the Use of Web-Based Mental Health Programs for Preventing Depression: Qualitative Study.

Background: Depression has a profound impact on population health. Although using web-based mental health programs to prevent depression has been found to be effective in decreasing depression incidence, there are obstacles preventing their use, as reflected by the low rates of use and adherence.

Objective: The aims of the study are to understand the barriers to using web-based mental health programs for the prevention of depression and the possible dangers or concerns regarding the use of such programs.

The impact of providing personalized depression risk information on self-help and help-seeking behaviors: Results from a mixed methods randomized controlled trial.

Objectives: To evaluate the impact of providing personalized depression risk information on self-help and help-seeking behaviors among individuals who are at high risk of having a major depressive episode (MDE).

Materials And Methods: In a mixed methods randomized controlled trial, participants who were at high risk of having a MDE, were recruited from across Canada, and were randomized into intervention (n = 358) and control (n = 354) groups. Participants in the intervention group received their personalized depression risk estimated by sex-specific risk prediction models for MDE.

Does providing personalized depression risk information lead to increased psychological distress and functional impairment? Results from a mixed-methods randomized controlled trial.

Background: Multivariable risk algorithms (MVRP) predicting the personal risk of depression will form an important component of personalized preventive interventions. However, it is unknown whether providing personalized depression risk will lead to unintended psychological harms. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the impact of providing personalized depression risk on non-specific psychological distress and functional impairment over 12 months.
