Methods 302 patients with moderate to severe COPD participated in SERT study. History and number of prior depressive episodes were measured using the Structured Clinical Interview for Depression; Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HAD) depression ≥8 or a Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) >,10. Results 240 (80%) male sample had a mean age of 68.0 years. Current depression was 22% (HAD) or 21% (PHQ-9), anxiety was 25% (HAD), and suicidal ideation (6%). 5-HTTLPR or STin2 VNTR genotypes were not associated with current depressive or anxiety symptoms. The mean number of prior depressive episodes was higher for patients with the 5-HTTLPR genotype S/S or S/L compared with L/L (4.4 ± 6.1; 5.3 ± 6.8; 4.0 ± 6.1, p less then 0.001) and with STin2VNTR high-risk genotype (9/12 or 12/12), medium risk (9/10 or 10/12) compared to low risk (10/10) genotypes (5.1 ± 6.8; 4.9 ± 6.7; 2.7 ± 4.5, p less then 0.001). Conclusions SERT 5-HTTLPR and STin2-VNTR polymorphisms were not associated with current depressive and anxiety symptoms, but the high-risk STin2-VNTR genotypes and S/L were associated with the number of prior depressive episodes.Dental trauma is common in the UK, with more than one in ten children having experienced some form of dental trauma. In addition, one in ten patients have been reported to have experienced dental trauma before orthodontic treatment. A recent survey of orthodontists' knowledge and experience of orthodontic management of traumatised teeth has highlighted large inconsistencies in management of traumatised teeth among UK orthodontists, highlighting the need for further information or training on orthodontic management of traumatised teeth.Therefore, the following guidelines have been developed in order to provide an evidence-based approach to treat this cohort of patients. The following guidance is based on the available literature, expert opinion and UK orthodontists' consensus drawn from a recent survey.Background This study aimed to estimate the expected cost of hypoglycemia in Diabetes Mellitus type-2 patients receiving hypoglycemic treatment in Chile and to explore the effect of the potential reduction of hypoglycemia over the total cost incurred by its public health system. Research design and methods A cost analysis was carried out based on a state transition mathematical model. The model used microsimulation with data from the National Health Survey 2016-2017 in Chile. Costs included follow-up, in-hospital and ambulatory care. Separate analysis was conducted for patients treated with insulin, or sulfonylurea. Results The annual expected total cost of hypoglycemia estimated for the Chilean public system was USD 288,922,523 (USD 273 per patient). The subgroup treated with insulin reached USD 353 per patient whereas the sulfonylurea subgroup was USD 217 per patient. The analysis revealed that for every 1% reduction of the incidence rate of severe hypoglycemia the cost is reduced 0.79% in total, 0.59% for the insulin subgroup, and 0.95% for the sulfonylurea subgroup. Conclusions The cost of hypoglycemia represents a high proportion of the public health budget in Chile, being similar to those resources allocated to provide coverage of diabetic treatments through its universal health benefit plan.

Family interventions in substance use disorders (SUD) treatment is limited despite the evidence for benefits. Providing family interventions is hampered by patient resistance, social stigma, logistics and factors related to the capacity of the treatment programmes.

The purpose of the study was to examine the association between family engagement in treatment, and opioid use defined by percentage negative opioid screen and rate retention in treatment defined by completion of study period.

Data from a 16-week outpatient randomised controlled trial (RCT) of 141 adults with opioid use disorder (OUD) receiving Opioid Assisted Treatment (OAT) using buprenorphine/naloxone film (BUP/NX-F) was, used to examine the association between family engagement in and opioid use and rate of retention in treatment. Multiple logistic regression was, applied to examine the independent prediction of family engagement on opioid use and rate retention in treatment.

Family engagement was significantly associated with retention19 pandemic is highly suggested.
Cultural competence is a prerequisite skill for a psychiatrist. There is a dearth of information on the methods used for training of cultural competence and their outcomes. This study aims to explore and determine the existing methods used for cultural competency training (CCT) for psychiatry residents and how useful these training methods are.

A systematic review methodology based on PRISMA guidelines was adopted for this study. find more The literature search reviewed databases of PubMed and MesH, using keywords 'psychiatry resident', 'psychiatry', 'psychiatrist', 'mental health', and 'mental health professional'. In the end,14 articles qualified for the detailed review. The level of evidence and quality of the studies were evaluated and recorded.

The methods of cultural competence training identified were grouped as, active/passive/mixed; group training/individual training. These included documentaries or non-feature films based teaching, secondary consultation and cross consultation models, case vignette discussions, Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), behavioral simulation, video demonstration, cultural discussion in rounds, and traditional clinical teaching.
