Cross-Platform Availability of Smartphone Sensors for Depression Indication Systems: Mixed-Methods Umbrella Review

Cross-Platform Availability of Smartphone Sensors for Depression Indication Systems: Mixed-Methods Umbrella Review

The vast variety of personally generated data can provide useful insights that empower individuals with depression to better manage experienced symptoms. Smartphone apps allow for the easy collection of personalized data over long time periods and enable the use of powerful machine learning models that can potentially identify individual data patterns related to the severity of depression or predict changes in symptoms and the probability of relapse or remission.

A Virtual Reality–Based Cognitive Defusion Application for Youth Depression and Anxiety: Mixed Methods Experimental Study

A Virtual Reality–Based Cognitive Defusion Application for Youth Depression and Anxiety: Mixed Methods Experimental Study

The process of decentering has been highlighted as a core “active ingredient” underpinning effective interventions for youth depression and anxiety [22,23], particularly in fostering objective and flexible ways of responding to negative thoughts and emotions. Third-wave psychological treatments have demonstrated effectiveness in improving depression and anxiety in youth and adults [24-26].

Mobile-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Health Care Workers’ Mental Health in Ecuador: Quasi-Experimental Study

Mobile-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Health Care Workers’ Mental Health in Ecuador: Quasi-Experimental Study

Health care workers, especially doctors and nurses, are among those most affected by the mental health crisis, facing high rates of depression, anxiety, and burnout. Research shows that nearly half of junior doctors report symptoms of depression, while over 63% experience significant anxiety. Physicians also face burnout rates 20%‐30% higher than those of other professions and are 1.4 to 2.3 times more likely to die by suicide [2].

Effectiveness of a Web-Based Virtual Simulation to Train Nursing Students in Suicide Risk Assessment: Randomized Controlled Investigation

Effectiveness of a Web-Based Virtual Simulation to Train Nursing Students in Suicide Risk Assessment: Randomized Controlled Investigation

One important axis of suicide prevention is the education of health care professionals in recognizing depression and managing suicidal crises. However, this aspect requires further investigation to assess its possible benefits due to the small number of randomized controlled investigations [2]. Nurses are ideally positioned to intervene and implement preventative measures toward suicide. However, several obstacles in suicide risk evaluation and care by nurses have been identified.

Exploratory Impact of iCARE Nigeria, a Combined mHealth and Peer Navigation Intervention, on Depressive Symptoms and Substance Use Among Youth Living With HIV in Nigeria: Single-Arm Trial

Studies conducted in sub-Saharan Africa have reported prevalence rates of depression or probable depression among youth living with HIV ranging from 4.4% to 30.2% [1,8-12] compared to 5.8% to 20% among seronegative youth [11,12]. Substance use has also been found to co-exist with mental health problems in youth living with HIV [13], although this relationship is understudied among youth living with HIV in sub-Saharan Africa.
