Behavioral therapy in migraine: Expanding the therapeutic arsenal.

Background And Purpose: The US Headache Consortium developed evidence-based guidelines for the treatment of migraine and found grade A evidence in support of behavior therapy (BT). Understanding the mechanisms of BT may improve the management of migraine and reduce its burden.

Methods: We performed a narrative review to define the current evidence of BT and determine its usefulness in migraine management.

Acceptability of multimodal and multidisciplinary group-based program for chronic low back pain: a qualitative study.

Background: The Programa d'Atenció Integral pels Pacients amb Dolor Crònic (PAINDOC) is a multimodal and multidisciplinary group-based program that integrates pain neuroscience education, mindfulness meditation, pain psychotherapy, Empowered Relief, and therapeutic exercise. It serves as a therapeutic option for individuals with chronic low back pain, providing them with comprehensive adaptive strategies for pain management.

Objective: This qualitative study explores participants' retrospective acceptability of the PAINDOC Program.

Neuropsychological functioning and its correlates at 1 year follow-up of severe COVID-19.

Background: Short-term cognitive impairment is associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection but the long-term impact is yet to be examined in detail. We aim to study the evolution of these symptoms in severe COVID-19 patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) between April and December 2020 1 year after hospital discharge and to analyze its clinical correlates.

Method: A total of 58 patients agreed to participate in the 6 months follow-up and 30 at 1 year after hospital discharge.

Neuropsychological functioning in post-ICU patients after severe COVID-19 infection: The role of cognitive reserve.

Background: Cognitive manifestations associated with Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome by Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) are yet to be described in the existing literature. The aim of this exploratory study is to analyze the impact of severe SARS-CoV-2 infection on neuropsychological performance 6 months following hospital discharge, and to identify which medical variables predict worse outcome. In this context, we study if cognitive reserve (CR) may play a protective role on cognitive impairment.

Self-reported neurocognitive symptoms during COVID-19 lockdown and its associated factors in a sample of psychiatric patients. Results from the BRIS-MHC study.

Lockdown caused by COVID-19 pandemic has a negative impact on mental health. The aim was to assess self-reported neurocognitive symptoms during the lockdown and identify associated vulnerable and protective factors in a sample of psychiatric patients in a Spanish population. These results are part of the Barcelona ResIlience Survey for Mental Health COVID-19 (BRIS-MHC) project.

PRimary carE digital Support ToOl in mental health (PRESTO): Design, development and study protocols.

Background: About 30-50% of Primary Care (PC) users in Spain suffer mental health problems, mostly mild to moderate anxious and depressive symptoms, which account for 2% of Spain's total Gross domestic product and 50% of the costs associated to all mental disorders. Mobile health tools have demonstrated to cost-effectively reduce anxious and depressive symptoms while machine learning (ML) techniques have shown to accurately detect severe cases. The main aim of this project is to develop a comprehensive ML digital support platform (PRESTO) to cost-effectively screen, assess, triage, and provide personalized treatments for anxious and depressive symptoms in PC.
