Summary: This study aimed to develop a more thorough understanding of the risk factors for loneliness in persons with a physical impairment, using a population-based sample of persons with spinal cord injury (SCI), based on regression modeling and a recursive partitioning approach. The results showed that individuals with disadvantaged socioeconomic characteristics and greater functional limitations were more likely to experience loneliness.

Summary: The study examined risk factors for childhood suicidal ideation and behavior, finding that children with suicidal ideation were more likely to have a family history of suicide attempts and anxiety issues. These factors may predict a first suicide attempt in high-risk groups.

Summary: This study investigated the frequency and consequences of wheelchair repairs and found that over 50% of wheelchair users were significantly affected by financial and personal costs. The highest repair rates were found for seating systems, electronics, and tires. Active users experienced more repairs and consequences compared to less active users. Repairs were more common among Black individuals and power wheelchair (PWC) users, whereas consequences were more common among Black individuals, PWC or power assist users, and those with public insurance. The consequences lasted longer than 2 weeks for many and could be minimized by having a working backup chair. Costs may present a barrier to repair completion for some individuals.

Summary: The study found that during the lockdown period, a significant percentage of Greek adults had suicidal ideation, with risk and protective factors including marital status, mental health history, perceived physical health quality, family functioning, anxiety and depression symptoms. In times of crisis, improving resilience, having positive feelings toward lockdown measures, maintaining good relationships with friends, and faith in a Supreme Being can help reduce the tendency of suicidal ideation.

Summary: This study aims to examine the prevalence and risk factors of suicidal ideation (SI) in postpartum women with and without depression. The results showed that the prevalence of SI in women with depression was 51.8%, while it was 3.3% in women without depression. Younger age and low family support were common risk factors for both groups of women.

Summary: Marriage is consistently associated with lower risk for suicidal ideation, particularly among individuals aged <30 years. However, for individuals aged 30 years or older, the first 10 years of marriage are associated with increased risk for suicidal thoughts, highlighting the need for clinical intervention.

Summary: This study investigated the prevalence and risk factors of suicidal ideation during pregnancy in Spain. The results showed that 2.6% of pregnant women reported suicidal ideation. Risk factors included sociodemographic factors such as prior history of depression, unemployment, and being an immigrant, as well as biomedical variables such as previous abortion and assisted reproduction.

Summary: This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of suicidal ideation (SI) in U.S. military veterans and identify gender-specific risk factors. Results showed that the prevalence of SI was significantly higher in female veterans compared to male veterans (18.1% vs. 11.2%). Lower psychological resilience, history of non-suicidal self-injury, and alcohol use disorder were major risk factors for SI in female veterans, while higher loneliness, hostility, and lower purpose in life were major risk factors for SI in male veterans.

Summary: Ketamine is effective in reducing suicidal thoughts in the short term for suicidal patients. Clinical factors poorly predict remission, and fluctuations in suicidal ideas necessitate vigilance and multimodal care. Remission after the first infusion is highly predictive of future remission.

Summary: The study evaluated the effects of direct swallowing training (DST) alone and combined with oral sensorimotor stimulation (OSMS) on oral feeding ability in very preterm infants. Results showed that DST+OSMS led to a faster attainment of independent oral feeding compared to the control and DST groups. The combination of DST+OSMS significantly shortened the time to independent oral feeding compared to non-intervention.

Summary: This study aimed to develop a quantitative assessment method for spontaneous movements in preterm infants using a deep learning algorithm. The complexity and similarity indices of joint angles and angular velocities were compared between infants with different Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) scores. The results showed that complexity indices of joint movements were positively correlated with HINE scores, suggesting their potential as indicators of developmental outcomes in preterm infants.

Summary: In this study, brain imaging findings and neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm infants diagnosed with cerebral palsy were analyzed. The study found that high-grade cerebellar hemorrhage and/or atrophy accounted for 25% of cerebellar injuries in patients with supratentorial lesions. Patients with cerebellar injury showed lower scores in various domains of neurodevelopmental assessment and had a higher proportion of patients below the cutoff value. Poor neurodevelopmental outcomes, other than motor function, were associated with cerebellar injury, indicating the importance of evaluating the cerebellum in predicting functional outcomes of cerebral palsy patients.

Summary: This prospective pilot study investigated the influence of body position on peak cough flow (PCF) during mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) treatment in people with tetraplegia. The results showed that PCF was associated with the application maneuvers and interaction between position and maneuvers, but not with the application position. Therefore, either position can be used for MI-E treatment in individuals with tetraplegia.
