Prevalence of Depression in Older Adults and the Potential Protective Role of Volunteering: Findings From the LongROAD Study.

Background: As the US population continues to age, depression and other mental health issues have become a significant challenge for healthy aging. Few studies, however, have examined the prevalence of depression in community-dwelling older adults in the United States.

Methods: Baseline data from the Longitudinal Research on Aging Drivers study were analyzed to examine the prevalence and correlates of depression in a multisite sample of community-dwelling adults aged 65-79 years who were enrolled and assessed between July 2015 and March 2017.

A rapid realist review of literature examining Co-production in mental health services for youth.

Background: An overview of internationally published literature on what works for co-production in youth mental health services is missing, despite a practice and policy context strongly recommending this approach. This rapid realist review develops a theory about how and why co-production methods in youth mental health services work, for whom and in which circumstances.

Methods: Relevant evidence was synthesised to develop Context-Mechanism-Outcome configurations (CMOs) that can inform policy and practice.

Out of area placements for people with "Personality Disorder": Making the case for a local intensive psychotherapeutic alternative.

Objectives: The use of Out of Area (OoA) psychiatric placements for people with "Personality Disorder" (PD) is widespread in the UK. An innovative local intensive psychotherapeutic service, adapted to the transdiagnostic presentations of the most complex PD patients, likely to be placed out of the area, was devised in the English County of Devon. This paper reports the findings of a Freedom of Information (FOI) request to commissioners attempting to quantify PD OoA placements in England and the cost offset of the local therapeutic alternative to OoA placements in Devon.

Outcomes of press-fit radial head arthroplasty in unconstructable radial head fractures with associated elbow injuries: An average 5-year follow up.

Aims: Unstable and nonreconstructable radial head fractures require radial head arthroplasty (RHA) to restore stability. Multiple implant designs are available with varying survival rates (76 to 97%). There is concern that loosening of the press-fit stems leads to implant failure.
