Filter by:The current study aims to evaluate the impact of long (>5 days) and/or compulsory psychiatric inpatient care on subsequent healthcare utilization for self-harm and suicide in people with borderline personality disorder, a condition characterized by frequent self-harm. The basis for this study is the diversity of clinical practices across Swedish regions. By categorizing clinics based on their practices with respect to long and/or compulsory psychiatric inpatient care, it is possible to explore the impact of these practices on subsequent somatic and psychiatric healthcare, including emergency care due to self-harm as well as on completed suicides. All psychiatric clinics across Sweden authorized to administer compulsory care for adults, totalling 78 clinics will be included. Each clinic per specific calendar year will represent one participant, identified by the clinic's name and the respective year (e.g., Umeå2010, Linköping2013, Malmö2022). Data collection will involve the utilization of the national registers to capture outcome measures and account for confounding factors. The participants will be ranked based on a composite variable, which includes the average number of days spent in inpatient compulsory care and other psychiatric inpatient care exceeding 5 days, among individuals diagnosed with BPD. The top quartile of participants will be compared with the bottom quartile.
Designed to measure the impact of Mindfulness Based Intervention on depression, anxiety, stress, psychological distress, Suicidal Ideation, Non-Suicidal Self Injury urge and Mindfulness in young adults. Those individuals who agree to participate in the trial and identified with high levels of psychological distress and Suicidal Ideation, randomly divided into interventional (n=30) and control (n=30) groups. The Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction intervention then administered to the interventional group for eight weeks and pre and post intervention assessment done for both the groups.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been successfully used to help patients with treatment resistant depression. However, its role in alleviating self injuries with and without suicidal ideation remained uncertain. This trial will compare the effectiveness of active accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation (aiTBS) rTMS to a placebo control on non-suicidal self injury (NSSI) and suicidal attempts in patients with major depressive disorder.
To investigate the intervention effect of high-definition transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS) on patients with Non-suicidal Self-injury (NSSI) and its underlying neural mechanism by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
To investigate the treatment effect of Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy (SNT) on patients with Non-suicidal Self-injury (NSSI) and the underlying neural mechanism.
To investigate the intervention effect of high-definition transcranial alternating current stimulation (HD-tACS) on patients with Non-suicidal Self-injury (NSSI) and its underlying neural mechanism by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
The objective of this project is to investigate factors that contribute to the success and lack of success in DBT among individuals with BPD and a history of self-harm in a clinical psychiatric setting. 1. Do certain personality factors and identity disturbance predict the treatment outcome of DBT in individuals with BPD? 2. Do changes in identity disturbance, self-hate, or emotion regulation mediate the treatment outcome of DBT in individuals with BPD? 3. Do specific personality profiles moderate the treatment outcomes of DBT for individuals with BPD? 4. When does the primary treatment effect occur, and does this effect persist after a 12-month follow-up period?
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effects of a walking intervention (3 walks per week for a period of 4 weeks) in a nature vs. urban setting on the wellbeing of young adult postsecondary students. We will examine changes in positive and negative affect for participants assigned to the nature condition vs those assigned to the urban condition (primary outcome). We will also examine changes in reported depression and anxiety symptoms, perceived stress levels, sleep quality, mindfulness and wellbeing (secondary outcome).
In the proposed study, three objectives will be pursued: 1. To develop a method to identify more effectively the acute and long-term risk of adolescents with the most threatening self-harm behaviours. 2. To identify the factors that influence the risk of self-harm behaviours and the success of treatment/treatment of these behaviours in the most at-risk adolescents (changes in these factors). 3. Develop guidelines for more effective treatment of the most at-risk adolescents. For this purpose, a sample of approximately 200 young people who will be hospitalised for suicide risk (the most at risk in Slovenia) and an approximately equal number of healthy adolescents will be included. At inclusion, the presence of several factors will be assessed by reviewing demographic data, clinical diagnosis, self-assessment questionnaires and clinical psychological tests (CSSRS, B-NSSI-AT, ISAS, LPFS-BF2.0, BPFSC-11, TSCC, PAI, ECR-RS, DASA-YV, ASHRS), social assessment, and blood sampling for genetic analyses (DNA isolation, sequencing, nucleotide sequence recognition, quantification and evaluation of short tandem repeats, identification of methylation sites). Longitudinal tracking of autoaggressive events and heteroaggressive events during hospitalisation will be performed and recorded on an ongoing basis. The risk and protective factors of the adolescents most at risk will be compared with a control group of adolescents. The same factors will be reassessed in the most at-risk adolescents after 6 and 18 months of treatment as usual. The data will be collected in a data entry and storage system that will ensure the privacy of the data entered in accordance with the GDPR. This will allow the investigators to identify young people at particular risk of severe self-harm behaviour more reliably, to target them for more intensive and effective treatment, and thus to improve their safety, quality of life and prognosis in the short and long term.
Non suicidal self injury (NSSI) has become a serious social and public health problem allover the world, and the incidence rate is increasing year by year. Although the aim of NSSI is not to suicide, but its negative impact is extremely serious, which will seriously threaten the physical and mental health of adolescents. Virtual Reality (VR), a computer simulation technology, can enable people to enter and experience the artificial virtual world in an immersive way, has been used for the auxiliary treatment of anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and other diseases. This study explored the impact of VR on the depression and mental health of NSSI adolescents, so as to reduce the incidence of non-suicide self-injury behavior in NSSI adolescent patients and improve the quality of life of such patients.
