title: COVID-19 Unmasked Global Collaboration Protocol: longitudinal cohort study examining mental health of young children and caregivers during the pandemic

description: <b>Background</b>: Early empirical data shows that school-aged children, adolescents and adults are experiencing elevated levels of anxiety and depression during the COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, there is very little research on mental health outcomes for young children. <b>Objectives</b>: To describe the formation of a global collaboration entitled, ‘COVID-19 Unmasked<b>’</b>. The collaborating researchers aim to (1) describe and compare the COVID-19 related experiences within and across countries; (2) examine mental health outcomes for young children (1 to 5 years) and caregivers over a 12-month period during the COVID-19 pandemic; (3) explore the trajectories/time course of psychological outcomes of the children and parents over this period and (4) identify the risk and protective factors for different mental health trajectories. Data will be combined from all participating countries into one large open access cross-cultural dataset to facilitate further international collaborations and joint publications. <b>Methods</b>: COVID-19 Unmasked is an online prospective longitudinal cohort study. An international steering committee was formed with the aim of starting a global collaboration. Currently, partnerships have been formed with 9 countries (Australia, Cyprus, Greece, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Turkey, the UK, and the United States of America). Research partners have started to start data collection with caregivers of young children aged 1–5 years old at baseline, 3-months, 6-months, and 12-months. Caregivers are invited to complete an online survey about COVID-19 related exposure and experiences, child’s wellbeing, their own mental health, and parenting. <b>Data analysis</b>: Primary study outcomes will be child mental health as assessed by scales from the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System – Early Childhood (PROMIS-EC) and caregiver mental health as assessed by the Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21). The trajectories/time course of mental health difficulties and the impact of risk and protective factors will be analysed using hierarchical linear models, accounting for nested effects (e.g. country) and repeated measures. This article describes the formation of a global collaboration between 9 countries that are collecting data to examine mental health outcomes for young children (1 to 5 years) and caregivers over a 12-month period during the COVID-19 pandemic.

title: DSM-5-TR prolonged grief disorder and DSM-5 posttraumatic stress disorder are related, yet distinct: confirmatory factor analyses in traumatically bereaved people

description: <b>Background</b>: Prolonged grief disorder (PGD) is newly included in the text revision of the DSM-5 (DSM-5-TR). So far, it is unknown if DSM-5-TR PGD is distinguishable from bereavement-related posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Prior research examining the distinctiveness of PTSD and pathological grief focused on non-traumatic loss samples, used outdated conceptualizations of grief disorders, and has provided mixed results. <b>Objective</b>: In a large sample of traumatically bereaved people, we first evaluated the factor structure of PTSD and PGD separately and then evaluated the factor structure when combining PTSD and PGD symptoms to examine the distinctiveness between the two syndromes. <b>Methods</b>: Self-reported data were used from 468 people bereaved due to the MH17 plane disaster (<i>N</i> = 200) or a traffic accident (<i>N</i> = 268). The 10 DSM-5-TR PGD symptoms were assessed with the Traumatic Grief Inventory-Self Report Plus (TGI-SR+). The 20-item Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) was used to tap PTSD symptoms. Confirmatory factor analyses were conducted. <b>Results</b>: For PTSD, a seven factor, so-called ‘Hybrid’ model yielded the best fit. For PGD, a univariate factor model fits the data well. A combined model with PGD items loading on one factor and PTSD items on seven factors (associations between PGD and PTSD subscales <i>r</i> ≥ .50 and ≤.71), plus a higher-order factor (i.e. PTSD factors on a higher-order PTSD factor) (association between higher-order PTSD factor and PGD factor <i>r</i> = .82) exhibited a better fit than a model with all PGD and PTSD symptom loading on a single factor or two factors (i.e. one for PGD and one for PTSD). <b>Conclusions</b>: This is the first study examining the factor structure of DSM-5-TR PGD and DSM-5 PTSD in people confronted with a traumatic loss. The findings provide support that PGD constitutes a syndrome distinguishable from, yet related with, PTSD. This is the first factor analytic study on PGD and PTSD after traumatic loss.PTSD and PGD factors are related, but distinguishable.DSM-5-TR PGD is distinct from DSM-5 PTSD. This is the first factor analytic study on PGD and PTSD after traumatic loss. PTSD and PGD factors are related, but distinguishable. DSM-5-TR PGD is distinct from DSM-5 PTSD.

description: UNITE provides a unified way for delimiting, identifying, communicating, and working with DNA-based Species Hypotheses (SH). All fungal ITS sequences in the international nucleotide sequence databases are clustered to approximately the species level by applying a set of dynamic distance values (<0.5 - 3.0%). All species hypotheses are given a unique, stable name in the form of a DOI, and their taxonomic and ecological annotations are verified through distributed, web-based third-party annotation efforts. SHs are connected to a taxon name and its classification as far as possible (phylum, class, order, etc.) by taking into account identifications for all sequences in the SH. An automatically or manually designated sequence is chosen to represent each such SH. These sequences are released (https://unite.ut.ee/repository.php) for use by the scientific community in, for example, local sequence similarity searches and next-generation sequencing analysis pipelines. The system and the data are updated automatically as the number of public fungal ITS sequences grows.

title: Age-related effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health of children and adolescents

description: <b>Background</b>: Children and adolescents are affected in various ways by the lockdown measures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, it is crucial to better understand the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health in this age-group. <b>Objective</b>: The objective was to investigate and compare the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on mental health in three age groups (1–6 years, 7–10 years, 11–19 years) and to examine the associations with psychological factors. <b>Methods</b>: An anonymous online survey was conducted from 9 April to 11 May 2020 during the acute phase of major lockdown measures. In this cross-sectional study, children and adolescents aged between 1 and 19 years were recruited as a population-based sample. They were eligible if they were residents in Austria, Germany, Liechtenstein or Switzerland, were parents/caregivers of a child aged between 1 and 10 years or adolescents ≥11 years, had sufficient German language skills and provided informed consent. <b>Results</b>: Among 5823 participants, between 2.2% and 9.9% reported emotional and behavioural problems above the clinical cut-off and between 15.3% and 43.0% reported an increase in these problems during the pandemic. Significant age-related effects were found regarding the type and frequency of problems (χ<sup>2</sup><sub>(4)</sub>≥50.2, <i>P</i> ≤ 0.001). While preschoolers (1–6 years) had the largest increase in oppositional-defiant behaviours, adolescents reported the largest increase in emotional problems. Adolescents experienced a significantly larger decrease in emotional and behavioural problems than both preschoolers and school-children. Sociodemographic variables, exposure to and appraisal of COVID-19, psychotherapy before COVID-19 and parental mental health significantly predicted change in problem-scores (F ≥ 3.69, <i>P</i> ≤ 0.001). <b>Conclusion</b>: A substantial proportion of children and adolescents experience age-related mental health problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. These problems should be monitored, and support should be offered to risk-groups to improve communication, emotion regulation and appraisal style. Between 15.3% and 43.0% of the 1 to 19 years old children and adolescents reported an increase of problems during COVID-19.Between 2.0% and 9.9% reported emotional and behavioural problems above the clinical cut-off.Effects were associated with age, gender, exposure to and appraisal of COVID-19, attending psychotherapy before COVID-19 and parental mental health.

title: Childhood maltreatment and social functioning in psychotic disorders: a systematic review protocol

description: <b>Background</b>: Childhood maltreatment (CM) is thought to play a key role in the etiology and course of psychotic disorders (PD). In addition, CM is related to neurobiological and clinical characteristics that can lead to poor social functioning. However, the extent to which CM and social functioning are directly associated in individuals with PD, is unclear. Therefore, we aim to systematically review the literature to provide an estimate on the strength of the association between CM and different domains of social functioning in PD and to summarize potential moderators and mediators of this association. <b>Methods and analysis</b>: To identify relevant studies, we will systematically search the following databases: Pubmed (Medline), PsycInfo, Embase, Web of Science (Core Collection), and Pilots (trauma), manually search reference lists and contact experts in the field. Studies will be included if they investigate and report on the association between CM (exposure) and social functioning (outcome) in adults with PD. Two independent reviewers will screen titles, abstracts and full texts according to eligibility criteria, perform data extraction and assess study quality according to a modified version of the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale. <b>Analysis</b>: Effect estimates will be pooled in a meta-analysis. Heterogeneity and publication bias will be assessed and the effects of potential moderators (genetic factors, type of diagnosis, duration of illness, type of CM and age at the time of CM exposure) will be analyzed using meta-regressions. Candidate moderators and mediators (neurocognition, cognitive schemas, comorbidities, stress sensitivity, attachment) will be also examined qualitatively. <b>Ethics and dissemination</b>: Because this review will make use of already published data, ethical approval will not be sought. This work has the potential to inform upcoming investigations on the association between the exposure to CM in PD and social functioning. PROSPERO registration number CRD42020175244. The first systematic review (and meta-analysis) of the association between CM and different domains of social functioning in individuals with PD.Evidence on both moderators and mediators of the association is summarized.

title: HIV/AIDS stigma and psychological well-being after 40 years of HIV/AIDS: a systematic review and meta-analysis

description: <b>Background</b>: In June 2021, 40 years have passed since the first cases of HIV infection were detected. Nonetheless, people living with HIV (PLWH) still suffer from intense HIV-related distress and trauma, which is nowadays mostly linked to the still-existing stigmatization of PLWH. <b>Objectives</b>: The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine the association between HIV/AIDS stigma and psychological well-being among PLWH. We also explored whether this association varies as a function of sociodemographic and clinical characteristics as well as study publication year and stigma measurement. <b>Method</b>: A structured literature search was performed on Web of Science, Scopus, PsyARTICLES, MedLine, ProQuest, and Google Scholar databases. The inclusion criteria were quantitative, peer-reviewed articles published in English between 1996 and 2020. <b>Results</b>: After selection, 64 articles were accepted for further analysis (<i>N</i> = 25,294 participants). The random-effects pooled estimate revealed an overall negative and medium-strength association between stigma and well-being (r = −.31, 95% CI [−.35; −.26]). The participants’ age modified this effect with a stronger association for older PLWH. Other sociodemographic and clinical variables as well as publication year and stigma measurement did not explain the variation in association between stigma and well-being across studies. <b>Conclusions</b>: The present meta-analysis and systematic review not only showed an expected negative relationship between stigma and well-being but also revealed a substantial heterogeneity between studies that suggests a strong role of context of a given study. This finding calls for more advanced theoretical and analytical models to identify protective and vulnerability factors to effectively address them in clinical practice and interventions. In this meta-analysis, the relationship between HIV/AIDS stigma and well-being of people living with HIV was investigated. In this meta-analysis, the relationship between HIV/AIDS stigma and well-being of people living with HIV was investigated.
