Summary: This study compared two methods, the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) and DSM-5 Mixed Features Specifier Interview (DMSI), for assessing mixed features in depressed patients. The agreement between the two methods was found to be poor, and the algorithm used in YMRS had a significant impact on the prevalence of mixed features.

Summary: Major depressive disorder affects over 264 million people worldwide and is the leading cause of physical and mental disability. The prevailing belief that it is highly recurrent has hindered progress in understanding individual risk factors. This article challenges this belief and proposes an agenda for identifying those at greatest risk for recurrence following the first onset of depression.

Summary: The study identified three distinct trajectories of grief reactions in bereaved adults, with one trajectory showing high and sustained grief reactions persisting for almost 7.5 years. Participants with prolonged grief exhibited greater functional impairment and self-reported depression compared to those whose grief reactions subsided over time. The study also recommended revisions to the PCBD criteria to avoid excluding cases with clinically significant grief-related distress and impairment.

This study designed a method to predict depressive disorders by identifying characteristics of young individuals experiencing depression.

Summary: Previous research found that individuals who did not meet full criteria for AN, BN, or BED but met criteria for EDNOS displayed high levels of psychiatric and physical morbidity. The present study aimed to determine whether the revised DSM-5 criteria for eating disorders were better at distinguishing between full criteria eating disorders and OSFED and UFED. Meta-analyses comparing various measures were conducted, revealing that OSFED showed more eating pathology compared to AN, but no difference in general psychopathology. OSFED also had more physical health impairments. These findings suggest that the DSM-5 criteria may not adequately capture the clinical severity of OSFED.

Summary: This paper describes a process of defining a comprehensive list of exemplars for diagnosing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and reports high interrater reliability in applying these exemplars. The study shows that mapping specific exemplars from behavioral descriptions can establish reliable standards for classification and achieve consistency in ASD diagnoses across different demographics.

Summary: This study quantitatively analyzed symptom heterogeneity and disorder comorbidity in a sample of 107,349 adult individuals from 8 English-speaking countries. The results showed a continuum of symptom prevalence and challenges with DSM-5 disorder labels, with many patients not fitting into any diagnostic criteria. There was a high diversity of symptom profiles both within and between disorders, highlighting the need for disorder agnostic approaches to symptom profiling.
