Aims: The impact of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection on the risk of self-harming behaviours warrants further investigation. Here, we hypothesized that people with a history of hospitalization for self-harm may be particularly at risk of readmission in case of SARS-CoV-2 hospitalization.

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis based on the French national hospitalization database.

Background: Despite the growing interest in the prevalence and consequences of loneliness, the way it is measured still raises a number of questions. In particular, few studies have directly compared the psychometric properties of very short measures of loneliness to standard measures.

Methods: We conducted a large epidemiological study of midwife students ( = 1742) and performed a head-to-head comparison of the psychometric properties of the standard (20 items) and short version (3 items) of the UCLA Loneliness Scales (UCLA-LS).

Article Synopsis
  • The study aims to assess the risks of non-lethal self-harm and mortality linked to adolescent pregnancy in France by using national health data from 2013-2014.
  • Pregnant adolescents (ages 12-18) were found to have a higher risk of hospitalisation for self-harm compared to non-pregnant peers and young pregnant women (ages 19-25), particularly in certain timeframes around the pregnancy.
  • The research suggests that adolescent pregnancy is associated with increased risks for both mental health issues and mortality, highlighting the need for targeted psychological support for these young individuals.

The antidepressant effects may occur through changes in glutamatergic metabolite levels and resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) within the default mode network (DMN). A multistage drug effect of ketamine has been suggested, inducing acute effects on dysfunctional network configuration and delayed effects on homeostatic synaptic plasticity.
