Panic attacks (PAs) are prevalent and highly comorbid with various physical and psychological disorders. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is a well-established psychosocial intervention. Internet-delivered CBT (ICBT) presents a promising avenue to overcome barriers and provide evidence-based support to those in need. The current scoping review aimed to systematically map the existing literature and identify knowledge gaps regarding the impact of ICBT on outcome measures for individuals experiencing PAs. The PRISMA guidelines for scoping reviews were used. A total of 3,044 records were retrieved, and 18 studies from 2013 to 2023 were ultimately included in the analysis. ICBT demonstrated effectiveness as a psychosocial intervention for improving panic symptoms and anxiety in individuals with PAs. However, the impact of ICBT on quality of life (QOL) remains inconclusive. All studies included in this review focused on assessing the severity of panic symptoms, with limited emphasis on measuring QOL. This scoping review holds significant implications for research and practice. However, further addressing the research needs identified in this review will enhance our understanding and improve treatment outcomes for PAs.

The perinatal period is a time of significant adjustment for mothers, which may lead to alterations in mood that affect maternal mental health, which may also impact child development. The current article details the effectiveness of the addition of a psychiatric-mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) and mental health training for nurses on the anxiety and depression screening scores of mothers enrolled in a home visitation program. For clients with elevated anxiety and depression scores, the percentages of those who were referred to and received mental health services increased after the program's addition of the PMHNP and mental health training. Implications for future research and practice include continued focus on maternal mental health with improved access to assessment and treatment for all clients within home visitation.

Suicide in young people is a challenge, but suicide rates in lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning (LGBTQ) youth are alarming. The current article explores the influence of several social determinates of health, specifically mental health care access and quality and education, on suicide among LGBTQ youth. Providers must recognize the mental health challenges and disparities in LGBTQ youth and address them to improve mental health and decrease suicide rates.

The current study examined the relationship between compassion fatigue and professional self-concept in psychiatric nurses. Participants included 156 nurses working in a mental health and disorders hospital in Turkey. Data were collected via a sociodemographics form, the Compassion Fatigue subscale of the Professional Quality of Life Scale, and Professional Self-Concept Scale. Participants exhibited low levels of compassion fatigue and high levels of professional self-concept. A significant negative relationship was found between participants' mean compassion fatigue scores and mean professional satisfaction, professional competence, and professional self-concept scores (p < 0.05). Professional satisfaction, professional competence, and professional self-concept decreased with increasing compassion fatigue. Nurses should be provided emotional support through in-service training and effective communication to prevent burnout. [Journal of Psychosocial Nursing and Mental Health Services, 62(3), 22-28.].

Substance use disorders (SUDs) are complex brain disorders with heritability rooted in the interplay of multiple genetic factors, alongside significant environmental influences. Gaining insights into the genetic mechanisms that heighten SUD risk can guide precision care, specifically in the development of targeted tools for prevention, early intervention, and the discovery of therapeutic targets. Nurses are ideally placed to advance genomics-informed precision care for individuals with SUDs. To fulfill this role, they must be adequately prepared to assess the value and utility of current genomics knowledge, its limitations, and ways to incorporate this understanding into clinical practice, education, research, and health care policy.

VigiBase, the World Health Organization's collaborative global pharmaco-vigilance database, provides storage for millions of adverse drug reaction (ADR) reports. Pharmacovigilance scientists use the database to detect signals, assess, and understand trends in ADRs so that potential harms can be communicated. A search for pharmacovigilance studies on psychotropic-related ADR reports published over the past 5 years in VigiBase identified the majority to be antipsychotic-related ADRs, and within the antipsychotic class, clozapine-related. The nine antidepressant-related ADR reports were reviewed in more detail and provide an example of how the science of pharmacovigilance identifies and communicates medication risks.

Reminiscence interventions have been tested with people with and without cognitive impairment. However, the literature on reminiscence interventions for the latter is less extensive. The purpose of the current scoping review was to list and describe group session reminiscence protocols used with older adults without cognitive impairment and not involving psychotherapy. Arksey and O'Malley's five stages scoping framework was used for this review. Seven databases were searched, and nine articles were included. Results show the heterogeneity of reminiscence programs available for older adults without cognitive impairment and highlight that key elements for replication are often lacking. Well-defined reminiscence programs should be selected for replication and evaluation studies. However, few well-defined reminiscence programs not involving psychotherapy are available for older adults without cognitive impairment.

Based on the reserve capacity model, the current study aims to explore the effect of material deprivation on well-being in Korean young adults using path analysis to investigate the mediating effects of loneliness, relationship satisfaction, perceived social support, and depression. Data from 2,041 young adults in the 2021 Youth Socio-Economic Reality Survey were included in a secondary analysis. According to the constructed path model, material deprivation, relationship satisfaction, perceived social support, and depression had significant direct effects on well-being. The indirect effect of material deprivation on well-being was statistically significant and sequentially mediated by loneliness, relationship satisfaction, and depression. Findings suggest the multidimensional effects of material deprivation on the mental health and well-being of Korean young adults through loneliness and relationship satisfaction-representing intrapersonal and interpersonal reserves, respectively. Policy support and multidimensional practical programs are needed to help materially deprived young adults build and maintain relationships and avoid feelings of loneliness and social isolation.
