Background: Despite a higher prevalence of psychosocial morbidity in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), the association between depressive state and disease course in IBD is poorly understood.

Aim: To investigate the impact of depressive state on disease course in IBD.

Methods: We conducted a systematic review in MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews and PsychINFO for prospective studies evaluating the impact of baseline depressive state on subsequent disease course in adult IBD.

Results: Eleven studies matched our entry criteria, representing 3194 patients with IBD. Three reported on patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), four included patients with Crohn's disease (CD) exclusively, and four studies included both UC and CD. Five studies reported an association between depressive state and disease course. None of the UC-specific studies found any association. In three of four CD-specific studies, a relationship between depressive state and worsening disease course was found. In four of five studies including patients in remission at baseline, no association between depressive state and disease course was found. Pooled analysis of IBD studies with patients in clinical remission at baseline identified no association between depressive state and disease course (HR 1.04, 95%CI: 0.97-1.12).

Conclusion: There is limited evidence to support an association between depressive state and subsequent deterioration in disease course in IBD, but what data that exist are more supportive of an association with CD than UC. Baseline disease activity may be an important factor in this relationship. Further studies are needed to understand the relationship between mental health and outcomes in IBD.

Background: Few population-based studies have assessed sex differences in stroke recurrence. In addition, contributors to sex differences in recurrence and poststroke mortality, including social factors, are unclear. We investigated sex differences in these outcomes and the contribution of social, clinical, and behavioral factors to the sex differences.

Introduction: Caregivers of children with mental health problems such as anxiety, depression, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder often experience heightened sleep problems, largely due to their children's disrupted sleep, and increased parental stress. Evidence suggests that mental and behavioral health care for children and adolescents has the potential to positively affect their caregivers; however, this has not been investigated in the context of pediatric digital mental health interventions (DMHIs). Therefore, the current study used caregivers' self-report measures to determine whether caregivers whose children are involved in a DMHI exhibit improvements in sleep problems and parental stress after initiation of their children's care.

Introduction: Anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are some of the most common conditions that youths (<18 years old) receive mental health treatment for. These conditions are associated with high-risk substance use or substance use disorders (SUDs). This study sought to identify the proportion of youths (<18 years old) with anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, or ADHD as a primary diagnosis in community mental health centers (CMHCs) having co-occurring high-risk substance use or a SUD.

Objective: The aim of our study was to delineate the differences in demographics, comorbidities, and hospital outcomes by eating disorder types in adolescents and transitional-age youth (15-26 years), and measure the association with psychiatric comorbidities.

Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study using the nationwide inpatient sample (2018-2019) and included 7,435 inpatients (age 12-24 years) with a primary diagnosis of eating disorders: anorexia nervosa (AN, 71.7%), bulimia nervosa (BN, 4.
