<div><h3>Objectives</h3><div>Questions concerning the sexuality of patients in psychiatric hospitals have come to light, particularly since the introduction of mixed gender patients in these institutions in the 1960s. Although the concerns about mixed gender are less topical, there are questions about the approach used toward sexuality in psychiatric hospitals. Today, even in a desire to protect patients, it is no longer acceptable to prohibit sexual relations on the wards in general, without considering the patient's clinical condition. A global study of the sexuality of patients in psychiatric hospitals is necessary. Initially, our study will focus on the attitudes of caregivers about the sexuality of patients. The main objective of this article is to present a thematic analysis of the discourse of health care professionals interviewed about the sexuality of adult patients hospitalized in psychiatry wards, focusing particularly on their feelings. The secondary objectives are to understand the problems encountered in daily practice by health professionals and to identify possible areas for improvement.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>The study was carried out in three centers, and a total of 18 caregivers were included. The criteria for participation were to be a health professional who cared for or had treated adult patients on psychiatric wards. For this study, we favored qualitative research because it focuses on the subject's discourse, which will allow us to concentrate on the feelings of the caregivers interviewed.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>First of all, the theme of persistent taboos that we initially encountered must be qualified. In fact, although sexuality is often discussed only if the health care team is confronted with it in the department, it appears that it is increasingly possible to discuss it. Second, we noted the prevalence of the themes of vulnerability and consent in the discourse of health professionals. These themes are directly linked to those of difficulty and anxiety, which were also highlighted during the data analysis. This suggests that it is difficult for health care providers to assess whether a patient has consented to engage in sexual activity, especially for those hospitalized under duress. Sexual violence is a major concern for caregivers. How best can they protect vulnerable patients while respecting their privacy and rights? Furthermore, we found a certain heterogeneity in the way care was provided. There are differences within the same institution, but also within the same department, depending on the caregivers. The study also allowed us to identify variations in the way patients are treated and the way they feel, depending on their gender, with men often being considered as predators and women as victims. Among the subjects interviewed, there was an unanimous desire to have access to training concerning the sexuality of patients. Finally, the subject of sexuality raises other issues such as

This ergonomic study of the work performed by a psychiatric hospital team is a continuation of the PRESST-NEXT and the SESMAT studies of job satisfaction and burnout among paramedics and doctors. The objective is to address these issues specifically for psychiatry based on an ergonomic analysis of a working day profession by profession. The results confirm the importance of the time spent with patients and of the necessity of exchanges with patients and the members of the team. The lack of which is often the cause of dissatisfaction. The fragmentation of these sessions brought about by interruptions is just as important if not more so than the total effective duration. The inadequacy of the workspaces is a major contributing factor. The proportion of informal work, which is so important in psychiatry in relation to the relational availability of caregivers, could be made more apparent. A participatory approach allows the healthcare team to develop and consider concrete proposals for jointly improving the determinants of both the quality of care and the working conditions.

To think human and madness (Penser l’homme et la folie), the title of one of Henri Maldiney's works, points to the fact that, like many psychiatrists of his generation, this philosopher analysed the existence of the psychotic on the basis of common structures of all human experience. Without this principle of considering them together, no encounter between the psychiatrist and their patient would be possible.

The links between bioethics and psychiatry are still insufficiently described in the literature. Yet they touch on the psychiatric practices and the societal perspective in which they are embedded. Deepening this dialogue means seeking to allow the clinic to embody these necessary limits that humans need to give themselves in order to allow a living together that is favorable to the living world. These limits to the application of each person's wishes must be met with the appropriate use of therapeutic means resulting from ever greater knowledge and scientific progress. Every actor in care and research must regain that pride which is fidelity to our limits. These are fundamentally the bases of a common clinical and therapeutic path that this alliance between ethics, relational life and psychic singularity allows to trace.

The management of psychological vulnerability is one of the main causes of the burden placed on informal and formal caregivers, due to the shortage of human and material resources for appropriate care. Informal carers face significant challenges in managing the difficulty of providing care, particularly regarding patients’ behavioral problems. They play a crucial role in the healthcare system by providing long-term care to vulnerable patients. Informal caregivers, often family members, also face significant educational, societal, and financial challenges: shortages of healthcare staff, adverse health effects, stigma, and financial costs associated with care. They must navigate the ambiguity of boundaries in their relationship with the patient, which can affect their quality of life and health. Caregivers’ adaptive strategies, whether flexible or rigid, influence their perception of the task and their quality of life. Less vulnerable caregivers tend to adopt problem-focused strategies and seek solutions, while more vulnerable caregivers have rigid and exaggerated strategies. The ability of caregivers to be psychologically present with the patient varies according to their ability to manage the situation and maintain an emotional balance. Caregivers’ coping strategies, their ability to find meaning in their role, and to manage their emotions are essential to alleviating their burden. Training and psychoeducational programs can be beneficial in helping them cope with the challenges they face.

<div><div><span>Contemplating suicide, suicide attempts, and successful suicides represent the suicidal behavior accompanied by depression and hopelessness. Suicide is among the major causes of death worldwide. According to obtained data, it has been reported that approximately 800,000 suicide deaths occur worldwide every year and the frequency of suicide varies from country to country. Many suicide attempts or the contemplation of suicide are associated with psychological disorders such as depression and schizophrenia as well as alcoholism and drug abuse. It has been demonstrated that depression, which affects nearly 350 million people worldwide is strongly linked to suicidal behavior, as it is the most common disorder in people who die from suicide. There are several major hypotheses in the pathogenesis of depression. One of them is the monoamine hypothesis and the insufficiency of monoamine neuromediators such as serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine in the central nervous system is considered to be a triggering factor for the development of depression. Another hypothesis is the stress hypothesis, and chronic stress and stressful life events are accepted as a predictor in the onset of depression. The third one is the disturbance of neurogenesis and neuroplasticity caused by especially brain-derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF) in nervous tissue. Another depression development related theory is the cytokine theory explained by the activation of the inflammatory response system inducing the various behavioral, neuroendocrine, and neurochemical alterations. Finally, the circadian rhythm theory that is responsible for regulating many physiological and behavioral processes and sleep disorders are reported to occur in most of the individuals suffering from depression. The findings about physiological roles or normal functions of the prion protein are very limited but there are several studies showing the possible role of prion protein in circadian rhythm, sleep deprivation and development of depression using mice devoid of prion protein.

Climate change is the significant alteration in the weather conditions of a place, which include wetter, drier or warmer conditions over several years or decades. Human activities are the core cause of climate change. Research has stated that the unmitigated release of carbon will cause global warming of several degrees Celsius by 2100, causing high-impact risks to human society. The average global temperature has increased by 0.06° C per decade since 1855. The global warming trend since 1982 is about three times faster than 0.20° C per decade. Since the global temperatures’ increase began, 2023 was discovered to be the warmest year in history. The World Health Organisation (WHO) stated that one in three women has experienced violence in their lifetime. Because the very important stakes for human societies of these two phenomena, this study's objective was to comprehensively investigate the multifaceted effects of climate change on violence against women (VAW) in diverse societal contexts. Our findings indicate that climate change significantly exacerbates Gender Based Violence (GBV). Studies in several countries have demonstrated that climate change has led to displacements, economic disruptions, lack of access to water and education, food insecurity, public health issues, which all increase violence against women. It is crucial to develop a strategic plan for protecting girls and women during climatic disasters as part of comprehensive climate action to spur the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) that are related to poverty alleviation, quality education and health, building sustainable cities and climate action. Similarly, adhering to climate action as suggested by the Paris Agreement in 2016 and reducing greenhouse gas emissions via better energy, food and transport choices can result in great gains. This will also avert several adverse effects of climate change on humans such as undernutrition, forced migration, forced marriage, forced abortion, xenophobic attacks, economic disruptions, and of course, violence against women.

PA Ostankov was a pure representative of the Leningrad school of psychiatry. It remained dominated by the legacy of V. Bekhterev and the works of his pupil Ostankov bear its mark. Long inspired by neuropsychiatry and organicism, Russian psychiatry became, in the Soviet era, essentially “physiological,” due to the place given to Pavlov's work. This evolution was more important in Moscow than in Leningrad, where psychiatrists sought to maintain links and familiarity with Western psychiatry. P.A. Ostankov's four articles in the Annales Médico-Psychologiques published between 1934 and 1939 are representative of a conception of psychiatry that, in France, had been that of Dupré and his school and which appeared outdated to younger psychiatrists. In 1943, Ostankov bore witness to the Jewish origin of the victims of a mass murder committed by the Germans.
