However, to address this issue, there are no specific guidelines for community-level service providers in Bangladesh. Therefore, we aimed to develop a community-based mental healthcare (CBMHC) service package and test its effectiveness in reducing depression, anxiety, and stress among mothers during the perinatal period.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>A cluster-randomized controlled trial (cRCT) was applied to test the CBMHC package in 2017 and 2018. It was provided to one group of mothers along with routine maternal care while another group received only routine maternal care. Paired sample t-test was applied to assess mean changes at baseline and endline in the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scales-21 (DASS-21) and EuroQol-5 Dimension and 3 Level (EQ5D3L) scales. A linear mixed-effects model was used to assess the relationship between the DASS-21 score and EQ5D3L.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>1215 participants were enrolled, including 605 in the intervention group and 610 in the control group. Measures of depression, anxiety, and stress were significantly decreased in both groups. Reduction in the levels of stress, as measured by changes in the stress score, were significantly greater in the intervention than in the control group (diff: 1.2, 95 % CI: 0.1, 2.2). The EQ5D3L index improved significantly, 0.02 units more at endline in the intervention group than in the control group (diff: 0.02, 95 % CI: 0.007, 0.03). The levels of mobility, usual activities, pain or discomfort, depression, and anxiety improved by 1.4 %, 7.6 %, 4.4 %, 2.6 %, and 0.4 % more, respectively, in the intervention group compared to the control groups. These improvements were statistically significant. The DASS-21 score was negatively and significantly correlated with both the EQ-5D3L index and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score for the intervention group as well as for the usual care group, indicating that EQ5D3L improved when common mental disorders decreased.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><div>Although the improvements were modest, a CBMHC service package was effective in reducing perinatal levels of stress among Bangladeshi rural women.</div></div><div><h3>Trial Registration</h3><div>ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03678415</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8543,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of psychiatry","volume":"102 ","pages":"Article 104290"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142578089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, we set out to identify literature (i) characterizing the GMB in animal models of SCZ, and (ii) employing SCZ-FMT into rodents to model SCZ in relation to behavioral and molecular phenotypes. Five studies examining animal models of SCZ suggest distinct GMB composition compared to respective control groups, which was correlated with SCZ-like behavioral phenotypes. Four additional studies investigated SCZ-FMT into rodents in relation to behavioral phenotypes, including spontaneous hyperlocomotion, social deficits, exaggerated startle response, and cognitive impairments, resembling those observed in SCZ patients. Mice receiving SCZ-FMT showed altered neurochemical and metabolic pathways in the brain. Animal models of SCZ have shown altered GMB composition, whereas reported behavioral and neurochemical alterations following FMT from patients into rodents suggest early face and construct validity for SCZ-FMT animal models. However, the predictive validity of these models remains to be validated.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":8543,"journal":{"name":"Asian journal of psychiatry","volume":"102 ","pages":"Article 104285"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142560782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
