Background: Obsessive-Compulsive-Disorder (OCD) and depression are well-known co-morbidities. But Obsessive- Compulsive-Symptoms (OCS) also occurs in non-OCD patients during depression as associated-symptoms, which has neither been adequately researched nor reflected in the nosology. This study systematically tried to look into the OCS during depressive episode in non-OCD patients. Methods: This was an observational follow-up study done at Central- Institute-of-Psychiatry, India. Male and female patients aged 18-55 years diagnosed by ICD10 as depressive episode single, recurrent or bipolar having no history of OCD treated as both in and out-patient were included in the study spanning over a period of six months. All the patients were screened with Yale-Brown- Obsessive-Compulsive-Symptoms-(YBOCS)-checklist. Patients having OCS were further rated with YBOCS-rating-scale and Hamilton-Depression-Rating-Scale (HDRS)-21-points at first contact and after six-to-eight weeks of treatment. Results: OCS was found in nearly one-third of non-OCD depressive-patients (45-male and 34-female) in this study of which 50% had premorbid-anankastic-traits. Contamination-washing-symptoms were commonest in females while obsessions of aggression and symmetry in males. There was significant correlation of OCS with low-mood, psychicanxiety and weight-loss. Mean HDRS-total-score correlated significantly with YBOCS-obsession-score but not YBOCS-compulsion-score. Irrespective of choice-of-treatment, improvement in depression and OCS corroborated with each-other and patients showing inadequate improvement had multiple-OCS at baseline. Conclusion: OCS is found in nearly one-third of non-OCD depression with corroboration of severity and treatment response, thus may be considered as a specifier for depression in future.

Although it is impossible for parents to not experience some kind of parental stress at some point [1], research suggests that parents of children with determination experience a higher level of stress compared to those of typically growing children [24]. These stresses can vary depending on various factors but are often caused due to the negative stigma associated with their child, availability and perception of social support, and socioeconomic status of the family [5-8].

Background: Anxiety and stress among college students have sharply increased over the past two decades. COVID-19 exacerbated the mental health and academic challenges of United States (US) college students, particularly students of color. Objective: To investigate the impact of COVID-19 on anxiety, stress and coping of Hispanic/Latine, Asian, and non-Hispanic White (NHW) US college students. Explore students’ academic perceptions as predictors of anxiety and stress. Methods: In this descriptive, cross-sectional study, 855 participants were students attending California State University, Fullerton (CSUF), a large public university in metropolitan Orange County, California, USA. From April to May 2020, participants answered an online survey of anxiety, stress, and coping. Demographic information and academic experiences were also collected online using a researcher-designed questionnaire. Frequencies and percentages summarized categorical data, and associations were analyzed using crosstabs, correlations, and multiple regression. Results: Participants identifying as Hispanic/Latine (n = 449), Asian (n = 169), and non-Hispanic White (NHW; n = 237) indicated difficulty transitioning to remote instruction and low academic engagement post-COVID-19. Over 70% of students reported moderate to high anxiety, while 80+% reported significant stress; these rates were typically higher for Asian and Hispanic/Latine participants than NHW participants. The leading healthy coping activity was exercise; the leading unhealthy coping behavior was alcohol abuse. Academic perceptions negatively predicted anxiety and stress levels. Conclusion: COVID-19 adversely affected the psychological well-being of participants of color. Administrators should address students’ mental health needs and provide culturally sensitive services. Additional remote instruction resources should be provided to these vulnerable students.

A scoping review of the literature reporting on smartphone use and parameters of mental health from January 2008 to February 2018 was performed for the purpose of summarizing and describing current research findings regarding the association of smartphone use with anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep of college students. The study followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses for Protocols 2015 (PRISMA-P 2015) guidelines. Thirty-one articles met protocol criteria. Fifteen articles reported on studies of multiple mental healths related issues. Nineteen examined the association of smartphone use with anxiety, 19 examined depressions, eight examined sleep, and seven examined stress. Literature contained in this study indicated varied associations between problematic smartphone use and anxiety, depression, stress, and sleep. Consistent positive correlations were observed between problematic smartphone use, anxiety, stress and poor sleep. The correlations with depression were more disparate. The majority of studies were cross-sectional in nature and correlational. While existing research indicates correlations between problematic smartphone use and certain parameters of mental health, these associations should be studied further with research methodologies permitting more definitive conclusions regarding the links.

Background: China, especial Wuhan city, has been severely affected by COVID-19. This study aimed to understand the psychological status and related factors of frontline medical staff in the COVID-19 epidemic. Methods: Participants were 130 first-line medical staff working in Tianyou Hospital, Wuhan. Participants completed the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 scale and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9. Findings: 1) A total of 48 participants (36.9%) showed emotional symptoms, 41 (31.8%) showed anxiety symptoms, and 36 (27.7%) showed depressive symptoms. 2) Females showed more severe anxiety than males (P < 0.05); intermediate level staff showed greater anxiety than junior and senior staff (P < 0.05). 3) Disease factors, work factors, time factors, and safety factors were all related to anxiety and depression (P < 0.05). Interpretation: There is a high incidence of emotional symptoms in frontline medical staff in the COVID-19 epidemic. Emotional response is closely related to the characteristics of the epidemic. Psychological interventions are necessary to manage these symptoms.
