Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the prevalence psychiatric comorbidities by using a structured diagnostic instrument and it impact on quality of life among patients with idiopathic epilepsy. Methodology: Using a cross-sectional study design, 120 patients with idiopathic epilepsy were assessed for psychiatric morbidity by using MiniInternational Psychiatric Interview-PLUS version for psychiatric morbidity and Quality of life in Epilepsy-31 scale. In addition, all the patients were also assessed on Beck Depression Inventory-II and generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7) to rate the severity of depressive and anxiety symptoms, respectively. Results: The present study showed that the prevalence of current and lifetime psychiatric diagnosis as per Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview-PLUS is 68.3% and 75%, respectively. Among various psychiatric disorders, depressive disorders were the most common (54.16%), followed by GAD (8.3%). In terms of severity of depressive symptoms, 10.8% patients had mild depression, 25.8% moderate depression, and 14.2% had severe depression. On GAD-7, 28.3% were found to have mild, 15% had moderate and 15.8% had severe anxiety. Psychiatric morbidity both current and lifetime was associated with poorer quality of life in all the domains. Conclusion: Psychiatric morbidity is highly prevalent in patients with epilepsy and it has significant negative impact on the quality of life. These findings suggest that there is a need for close liaison between the psychiatrist and the neurologist to address psychiatric issues among patients with epilepsy.

Objective: The present study aimed to examine the attitude of the general public toward the mental illness in Jharkhand. Material and Methods: A community-based cross-sectional study with a sample size of 240 consisting of a male (163) and female (77) of the general population was done. The study was conducted in the urban and rural areas of Hazaribagh district based on a simple random sample technique. To collect data, Attitude Toward Mental Health Problem (ATMHP) was used. The sociodemographic profile has been calculated with descriptive statistics, and Mann–Whitney U-test has been used to find the significant differences in attitude score. Results: Males and females are both having positive attitude attitudes toward mental illness. Females are having a more positive attitude than males since the mean score is lower in all the four domains of ATMHP (9.39 ± 7.03 > 7.51 ± 5.87, 13.36 ± 9.87 > 9.67 ± 9.30, 5.52 ± 4.97 > 4.35 ± 4.59, 7.82 ± 6.34 > 5.53 ± 4.83, 6.41 ± 4.96 > 4.57 ± 4.46). However, a significant difference has not been found in two domains of ATMHP at 0.05 significant statistical levels. After controlling the co-variates through multinomial logistic regression, males showed 3.7 times odds of developing shame than female toward family member and statistically significant differences were found at less than P value 0.05 levels. Conclusions: People have started to comprehend and empathize with the patient and the family of the mentally ill, and they do not feel shame in admitting, seeking help, and reaching family to help.
目的:本研究旨在了解贾坎德邦民众对精神疾病的态度。材料和方法:以社区为基础的横断面研究,样本量为240人,其中男性163人,女性77人。该研究基于简单的随机抽样技术在哈扎里巴格县的城市和农村地区进行。采用心理健康问题态度量表(Attitude To Mental Health Problem, ATMHP)收集数据。社会人口学概况用描述性统计计算,并使用Mann-Whitney u检验发现态度得分的显著差异。结果:男性和女性对精神疾病的态度都是积极的。女性在4个领域的平均得分(9.39±7.03 > 7.51±5.87、13.36±9.87 > 9.67±9.30、5.52±4.97 > 4.35±4.59、7.82±6.34 > 5.53±4.83、6.41±4.96 > 4.57±4.46)均低于男性。然而,两个领域的ATMHP在0.05显著的统计学水平上没有发现显著差异。经多项logistic回归控制协变量后,男性对家庭成员产生羞耻感的几率是女性的3.7倍,差异均小于P值0.05。结论:人们已经开始理解和同情精神疾病患者和家属,他们在承认、寻求帮助和向家人寻求帮助方面不再感到羞耻。

Objectives: To assess the perceived stress and to evaluate the sources of stress, the prevalence of psychological morbidity (if any) and different coping strategies among the newly joined 1st-semester medical undergraduate students. Methodology: A cross-sectional exploratory study was conducted on all the newly joined 1st-year medical students (who had entered 3 months back) at a tertiary care medical college and teaching hospital in Eastern India. Perceived stress and depressive symptoms were assessed on the Perceived Stress Scale-10 (PSS-10) and Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). A self-designed questionnaire was used to evaluate different premedical entry-level preparation issues and ongoing psychosocial and academic-related stressors. Coping was evaluated on the Ways of Coping Checklist. Results: Ninety-five first-semester medical undergraduate students (mean age − 18.34 ± 0.95 years) who had joined the Institute 3 months back participated in the study. The mean PSS score was 21.56 ± 3.97 and about 85.3% and 11.6% of the students reported moderate and high degrees of stress. Depressive symptoms were reported by 36.8% (PHQ-9 cut-off ≥10). During medical preparation (as rated on a Likert scale of 0–10), the mean rated stress level was 6.84 ± 2.05. Almost half of the students reported facing problems adjusting to the new place and environment (48.4%), facing language problems (11.6%), and unfavorable hostel facilities (10.5%). Under academic stressors – more than half of the students perceived the vastness of academic curriculum as a major stressor as “often” (53.7%) followed by fear of failure in exams (35.8%). Students followed both negative coping strategies (such as escape avoidance coping, distancing, and confrontive coping) and positive coping strategies (self-controlling, seeking social support, planful problem-solving, and positive appraisal). Significant association of depressive symptom score was found with self-controlling (P - 0.012) and seeking social support (P = 0.015) type of coping. Conclusion: A substantial proportion of undergraduate medical students have moderate to high stress at the entry level (just within the months of joining medical curriculum) and about one-third (36.8%) had depressive symptoms. Most of the students reported of using escape–avoidant type of coping while dealing with the ongoing stressors. More focus on improving resilience and positive adaptive coping skills in the initial formative years of medical education to prevent psychological morbidities and burnout in future years of medical education.
目的:评估新加入的医学本科生第一学期的感知压力,并评估压力来源、心理发病率(如果有的话)和不同的应对策略。方法:对印度东部一所高等医学院和教学医院的所有新加入的一年级医学生(3个月前入学)进行了横断面探索性研究。感知压力和抑郁症状采用感知压力量表-10(PSS-10)和患者健康问卷-9(PHQ-9)进行评估。使用自行设计的问卷来评估不同的医学预科入门准备问题以及持续的心理社会和学术相关压力源。应对方式根据应对方式检查表进行评估。结果:95名3个月前加入该研究所的医学本科生(平均年龄−18.34±0.95岁)参加了这项研究。平均PSS评分为21.56±3.97,约85.3%和11.6%的学生报告有中度和高度压力。36.8%的患者报告有抑郁症状(PHQ-9临界值≥10)。在医疗准备期间(Likert评分为0-10),平均额定压力水平为6.84±2.05。近一半的学生表示在适应新的地方和环境方面面临问题(48.4%)、语言问题(11.6%)、,以及不利的宿舍设施(10.5%)。在学业压力下,超过一半的学生认为庞大的学术课程是“经常”的主要压力源(53.7%),其次是对考试失败的恐惧(35.8%)。学生既遵循消极应对策略(如逃避应对、疏远和面对面应对),也遵循积极应对策略(自我控制、寻求社会支持、有计划地解决问题和积极评价)。抑郁症状评分与自我控制(P=0.012)和寻求社会支持(P=0.015)类型的应对方式显著相关。结论:相当大比例的医学本科生在进入医学课程的几个月内有中度至高度的压力,约三分之一(36.8%)有抑郁症状。大多数学生报告说,在应对持续的压力源时,他们使用了逃避型应对方式。在医学教育的最初几年,更多地关注提高韧性和积极适应的应对技能,以防止在未来几年的医学教育中出现心理疾病和倦怠。

Background: The recent COVID-19 pandemic has induced a considerable degree of fear, worry, and concern in the population at large. Drastic changes in daily lives as a result of lockdown may expose individuals to high stress levels, which might make them vulnerable to mental health issues. It is important to identify and understand these difficulties, which can help mental health professionals and policy makers address these issues. Aim: The present study aimed to screen mental health problems and to gain insight into resilience among Indians during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. Materials and Methods: The study was cross sectional, using online survey method. Sociodemographic datasheet, a self-designed questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire and Brief Resilience Scale were entered into Google Form, and was sent using E-mails and WhatsApp to the personal contacts of the investigators. The link was also posted in social media groups. The participants were requested to complete the survey and then forward the link to their contacts. Inclusion criteria laid for the study included English speaking males and females, 18 years or older, and living in India. A total of 348 individuals filled in the forms, of which 327 were complete and included for analysis. Results: Fifty percent of the participants surveyed had symptoms of common mental disorders. Thirty-three percent had elevated scores needing diagnostic evaluation for somatoform disorder, 33% for generalized anxiety disorder, and 35% for depression. 8% reported developing interpersonal difficulties with family members, 17% reported financial stress, 23.5% were worried about job loss, and 35% found the lockdown very stressful. Elevated scores on patient health questionnaire-somatic, anxiety, and depressive symptoms were associated with financial stressors, worries about job loss, and lockdown stress. Ten percent of the participants indicated a need to talk to psychologist, and 40% were not aware of tele counselling facilities. Higher resilience was associated with lower odds of developing psychiatric symptoms. Conclusion: The results offer preliminary data-based insight into the impact of the lockdown, and are suggestive of increased stress and mental health liabilities. Fostering resilience may be critical to prevent or reduce mental health problems in general population during the pandemic.
背景:最近的新冠肺炎大流行在广大民众中引发了相当程度的恐惧、担忧和担忧。封锁导致的日常生活的剧烈变化可能会使个人面临高压力,这可能会使他们容易受到心理健康问题的影响。识别和理解这些困难很重要,这可以帮助心理健康专业人员和政策制定者解决这些问题。目的:本研究旨在筛选心理健康问题,并深入了解新冠肺炎疫情封锁期间印度人的复原力。材料与方法:本研究采用横断面调查法,采用在线调查法。将社会记录数据表、自行设计的问卷、患者健康问卷和简要弹性量表输入谷歌表格,并使用电子邮件和WhatsApp发送给调查人员的个人联系人。该链接也被发布在社交媒体群中。参与者被要求完成调查,然后将链接转发给他们的联系人。为这项研究制定的纳入标准包括18岁或以上、居住在印度的讲英语的男性和女性。共有348人填写了表格,其中327人是完整的,供分析。结果:50%的受访者有常见精神障碍症状。33%的人因体型障碍需要诊断评估,33%的人患有广泛性焦虑症,35%的人患有抑郁症。8%的人表示与家人出现人际关系困难,17%的人表示经济压力,23.5%的人担心失业,35%的人认为封锁压力很大。患者健康问卷中躯体、焦虑和抑郁症状的得分升高与经济压力源、对失业的担忧和封锁压力有关。10%的参与者表示需要与心理学家交谈,40%的参与者不知道远程咨询设施。恢复力越高,出现精神症状的几率越低。结论:这些结果为了解封锁的影响提供了基于数据的初步见解,并暗示了压力和心理健康责任的增加。培养韧性对于预防或减少疫情期间普通人群的心理健康问题可能至关重要。

IGDS mean Score of "Conflict" was the highest while it was the least for "Displacement". "Escape “and "Deception" were significantly higher for females. "Displacement" significantly higher for Urban domicile and Online mode of gaming. "Persistence" was significantly higher for those who were gaming on personal devices and playing MMORPGs. Psychiatric disorders associated with IGD were ODD (46.66%), Dissociative disorder (24.44%), ADHD (17.77%) and Depressive disorder (11.11%). Phenomenology of IGD was comparable across all psychiatric comorbidities except subjects with dissociative disorders, who had significantly higher scores for "Escape" than ADHD and Depression. Also, subjects with ODD had significantly higher scores for "Displacement" than the subjects with Dissociative disorder in terms of IGDS scores. Conclusion: Significant differences in the severity of DSM-5-IGD symptoms criteria is found in terms of gender, domicile, gaming genre (MMORPGs), accessibility of smartphones, online/offline modes of gaming and the associated psychiatric comorbidity.
目的-尚未对不同IGD症状标准的严重程度进行过多探讨。该研究描述了在儿童和青少年精神科门诊就诊的患有共病精神障碍的青少年IGD的现象学。方法-纳入了13-16岁的青少年,他们曾就读于一家三级精神病教学医院的儿童和青少年精神病学门诊部,有游戏史,并符合DSM-5的IGD标准。然后,所有受试者都使用半结构化形式表、IGDS和K-SADS-PL进行了评估。结果-在46名青少年的研究样本中,最常见的IGDS标准是“冲突”,最不常见的标准是“容忍”。IGDS的“冲突”平均得分最高,而“流离失所”平均得分最低。女性的“逃离”和“欺骗”显著更高。城市住所和在线游戏模式的“流离失所”显著更大。对于那些在个人设备上玩游戏和玩MMORPG的人来说,“持久性”明显更高。与IGD相关的精神障碍包括ODD(46.66%)、解离性障碍(24.44%)、多动症(17.77%)和抑郁症(11.11%)。除解离性障碍受试者外,IGD的现象学在所有精神合并症中都具有可比性,解离性障碍的受试者在“逃离”方面的得分明显高于多动症和抑郁症。此外,就IGDS得分而言,ODD受试者的“位移”得分明显高于解离障碍受试者。结论:DSM-5-IGD症状标准的严重程度在性别、住所、游戏类型(MMORPG)、智能手机的可访问性、在线/离线游戏模式和相关的精神共病方面存在显著差异。

Background: There are limited numbers of studies from India, which have evaluated the demographic and clinical profile of patients seen in the emergency setting. Aim: This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the profile of the patients, seen in the emergency setting by a psychiatry team. Methodology: The psychiatry emergency register was reviewed for the data for 6 calendar years (2014–2019), for the demographic and clinical profile. Results: 5563 patients were evaluated by the emergency psychiatry team during the period of 6 years, with the number of patients seen in each calendar year varying from 693 to 1057. The mean age of the patients availing psychiatry emergency services was 38.35 years (standard deviation: 16.65), with a significant proportion (13.1%–16.7%) of them in the elderly age group. Majority of the patients were male (64.6%) and were seen initially by the medicine and allied branches (87.8%). The most common diagnosis was delirium, and this was followed by affective disorders. Substantial proportions of the patients had substance use disorders (18.5%) and self-harm (9.8%). Nearly four-fifths of the patients were managed with psychotropic medications, and nearly one-fifth were treated with psychotherapeutic interventions, while more than half underwent investigations. Conclusion: The present study suggests that delirium, followed by affective disorders, substance use disorders, and intentional self-harm are the most common psychiatric diagnoses, among patients seen in the emergency setting. These findings can have important implications for organizing the psychiatric services in the emergency setting and for training.

Background: Problematic gaming use is prevalent among the adolescents and young adults. The awareness of problematic gaming as a behavioral addiction is low in the community. Aims: This study was aimed to find the prevalence of problematic gaming, gaming pattern, and perceived stress level among Indian medical graduates. Methods: A total of 922 undergraduate medical students participated in this cross-sectional study. Demographic details, different gaming variables, “internet gaming disorder scale short form (IGDS9),” and “Perceived stress scale” were filled by participants using the Google form. Results: Out of 595 students, 8.71% reported problematic gaming use. Positive correlation was observed between Internet gaming disorder score and perceived stress score (r = 0.446, P < 0.001). Male participants, younger age group, first year medical students, and participants playing more hours per day were associated with higher score on IGDS (P < 0.001). Positive correlation was observed between the duration of game play (in years) with IGDS score (r = 0.359, P < 0.001). Action games playing participants had higher score on Gaming Disorder Scale followed by simulation games playing participants (P = 0.001). Conclusion: Problematic gaming use is prevalent behavioral addiction among the medical students. Students with problematic gaming reported a high level of stress. Education and interactive workshop of problematic gaming should be conducted as a part of foundation course in the medical education.
背景:有问题的游戏使用在青少年和年轻人中很普遍。在社区中,问题游戏作为一种行为成瘾的意识并不高。目的:本研究旨在了解印度医学毕业生中问题游戏的流行程度、游戏模式和感知压力水平。方法:对922名医科本科生进行横断面调查。参与者使用谷歌表格填写了人口统计细节、不同的游戏变量、“网络游戏障碍量表简表(IGDS9)”和“感知压力量表”。结果:在595名学生中,8.71%的人报告了游戏使用问题。网络游戏障碍得分与感知压力得分呈正相关(r = 0.446, P < 0.001)。男性参与者、年龄较小的年龄组、一年级医学生和每天游戏时间较长的参与者的IGDS得分较高(P < 0.001)。游戏持续时间(以年为单位)与IGDS得分呈正相关(r = 0.359, P < 0.001)。动作游戏参与者在游戏障碍量表上得分较高,其次是模拟游戏参与者(P = 0.001)。结论:问题性游戏使用是医学生普遍存在的行为成瘾。有问题游戏的学生报告压力很大。在医学教育的基础课程中,应开展问题游戏教育和互动研讨会。

Aim: To evaluate the association of impairment of attention with other symptoms of delirium. Methodology: Eighty-six patients with delirium as per the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, 5th Revision seen in the consultation-liaison psychiatry setup of a tertiary care hospital were cross-sectionally assessed on the short informant questionnaire on cognitive decline in the elderly (Retrospective), montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), and delirium rating scale revised-98 (DRS-R98) version. Results: The mean age of the study participants was 46.6 (standard deviation [SD] – 16.4) years. All the patients had impairment in attention with the altered sleepwake cycle, acute onset of illness, with the fluctuating course and underlying physical disease. In terms of severity, the severity score was the highest for the item of sleep-wake cycle disturbances, followed by motor agitation. The mean noncognitive symptoms domain of the DRS-R98 domain were more than the mean score of the cognitive symptom domain of DRS-R98. The mean total score on MoCA was 11.9 (SD: 7.5). Higher attention impairment was associated with more severe noncognitive and cognitive symptoms and higher delirium severity as assessed by DRS-R98. Higher severity of attention deficit was also associated with higher impairment in other domains of cognition of MoCA. Cognitive symptoms, as evaluated by DRS-R98, had more significant correlations with various domains of MoCA except for language and abstraction. Conclusion: Attention deficits are the core symptom of delirium and have a significant impact on other cognitive and noncognitive symptoms of delirium.
目的:评估注意力损害与谵妄其他症状的关系。方法:根据《诊断与统计手册》第5版,在一家三级护理医院的咨询联络精神病学机构中看到的86名谵妄患者在关于老年人认知能力下降的短信息者问卷(回顾性)、月度认知评估(MoCA)、,和谵妄评定量表修订98版(DRS-R98)。结果:研究参与者的平均年龄为46.6岁(标准差[SD]-16.4)。所有患者都有注意力障碍,包括睡眠-觉醒周期的改变、疾病的急性发作、病程的波动和潜在的身体疾病。就严重程度而言,睡眠-觉醒周期紊乱项目的严重程度得分最高,其次是运动刺激。DRS-R98结构域的平均非认知症状域大于DRS-R9 8的认知症状域的平均得分。MoCA的平均总分为11.9(SD:7.5)。根据DRS-R98的评估,较高的注意力障碍与更严重的非认知和认知症状以及更高的谵妄严重程度有关。注意力缺陷的严重程度越高,MoCA其他认知领域的损伤也越大。DRS-R98评估的认知症状与除语言和抽象外的MoCA的各个领域具有更显著的相关性。结论:注意缺陷是谵妄的核心症状,对谵妄的其他认知和非认知症状有显著影响。

COVID-19 is associated with a significant distress and stigma. Due to the nature of the disease, it is difficult to conduct counseling and therapy without taking significant precautions such as wearing a complete personal protective equipment kit which impedes with rapport and dampens the speech which is quite essential for therapy. Herewith, we present a case where we used technology-based interventions, course, and outcome. Although the results of this case study cannot be generalized, few factors clearly stand out in the treatment of psychological distress among COVID-19-positive clients – psychoeducation, supportive therapy components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and management of expressed emotion may play a key role in dealing with rural population. Family interventions were used to facilitate healthy family communication pattern (using technology) toward healthier involvement, connectedness aid client's recovery in the aftermath and acceptance of COVID-19 diagnosis. Intervention should also equip and empower client and family to deal with stigma and helplessness through clarifying misconceptions, providing knowledge, and enhancing agency or mastery over circumstances. These can serve as guidelines during treatment of psychological distress among COVID-19-positive clients and their families.
新冠肺炎与严重的痛苦和耻辱有关。由于这种疾病的性质,如果不采取重大预防措施(如穿戴完整的个人防护装备套件),很难进行咨询和治疗,这会妨碍融洽的关系并抑制对治疗至关重要的言语。在此,我们介绍了一个案例,我们使用了基于技术的干预措施、过程和结果。尽管该案例研究的结果无法概括,但在COVID-19阳性客户的心理困扰治疗中,几乎没有几个因素明显突出——心理教育、认知行为疗法(CBT)的支持性治疗组成部分和表达情绪的管理可能在应对农村人口方面发挥关键作用。家庭干预被用于促进健康的家庭沟通模式(使用技术),以促进更健康的参与,联系有助于客户在新冠肺炎诊断后的康复和接受。干预还应通过澄清误解、提供知识和加强代理或对环境的掌握,使客户和家人能够应对耻辱和无助。这些可以作为治疗COVID-19阳性客户及其家人心理困扰的指南。
