Furthermore, youth attempted suicide more impulsively and repeatedly; however, medical lethality of each attempt tended to be lower than adults. We experienced difficulty in collecting complete information because of poor consciousness or cooperation of patients who visited the ED immediately after suicide attempt. Also, the study cohort was only recruited from one hospital in a region. Youth suicide attempters are suggested to have relatively serious and persistent problems involving personality or traits than adults. Thus, this study highlights the significance of preventive strategies based on early psychopathological evaluation and treatment.

Infectious disease outbreaks affect physical and mental health of humans worldwide. Studies showed that the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms increased in these conditions. This systematic-review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the prevalence of PTSD related symptoms in coronavirus outbreaks. Systematic search of literature was conducted in Scopus, Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science. Google Scholar and Grey literature including conference proceedings were also checked. Published articles from November 1, 2012 until May 18, 2020 were searched. Subgroup analysis, meta-regression and sensitivity analysis were also conducted to assess heterogeneity. We found 38 articles with 19,428 individuals met the eligibility criteria. Of these papers, 35 studies were included in meta-analysis. The prevalence of PTSD symptoms was estimated to be about 18% (95%CI 15% to 20%). These symptoms were more frequent in cohort studies (29%) compared to cross-sectional (15%) and case-control (11%) studies. Prevalence rates of PTSD symptoms in MERS (36%) outbreaks were higher than SARS (18%) and COVID-19 (9%) outbreaks. selleckchem Meta-regression showed that the geographical location of study was the source of heterogeneity (R 19.8%, P-value 0.003). Meta-analysis reported that about three in every ten survivors of coronavirus infection, about two in every ten healthcare workers, and about one in every ten individuals of general population experienced PTSD symptoms in outbreaks. PTSD cannot be objectively assessed and this can lead to information bias of included studies. PTSD symptoms are shown to be common in coronavirus outbreaks. Mental care should be, therefore, considered in the present COVID-19 pandemic. PTSD symptoms are shown to be common in coronavirus outbreaks.

Although men have a higher risk of developing a mental disorder during the perinatal period, few studies have focused on new fathers' mental health screening. This study compares anxiety and depression symptoms between fathers with newborn infants in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and fathers of healthy full-term infants, assessing the impact of stress caused by the NICU.. A longitudinal and prospective study with control (n= 33) and study groups (n=51) was designed. The dependent variables assessed were post-natal depression and anxiety-state while the social and demographic information, health background and the parental stress in the neonatal unit were the independent variables. The fathers were assessed twice during the first month after birth. Significant differences in the EPDS scores were found between both groups in the first assessment (p=.006) but not in the second assessment (p=.60). Significant differences in STAI scores were found between the groups for both assessments (p=.003 and p=.002). The stress caused by the infant's appear
