Summary: This study reveals that mood disorders have a significant impact on the progression from single cardiometabolic diseases to multimorbidity or mortality. Patients with comorbid mood disorders, such as depression or bipolar disorder, are more likely to develop multimorbidity, and mood disorders also increase the overall mortality rate.

Summary: This systematic review examines the evidence on the impact of hormone therapy on psychosocial functioning for transgender individuals. The review found strong evidence for reductions in depressive symptoms and psychological distress after hormone therapy. However, the evidence on the effects of hormone therapy on quality of life and self-mastery is inconsistent and more research is needed. Overall, there is a need for more high-quality evidence on the psychosocial effects of hormone therapy for transgender people.

Summary: The study found an association between dissociative symptoms and self-stigma, which reduces overall quality of life in bipolar disorder. Early identification of at-risk patients with a history of abuse and high perceived stigma could lead to more precise treatment management.

Summary: Individuals with bipolar disorder tend to have higher neuroticism and lower extraversion and consciousness compared to healthy controls. Personality traits show only small changes over time, with neuroticism being the only trait associated with changes in mood state. Other factors beyond mood changes may influence changes in personality traits.

Summary: Objective: To determine the prevalence and predictors of physical health comorbidities in older adults with bipolar disorder. Methods: A systematic review and narrative synthesis of peer-reviewed journal articles were conducted. Results: The literature on physical health comorbidities in older adults with bipolar disorder was inconclusive, but there was some tentative evidence of higher rates of cardiovascular disease and some forms of cancer. Limitations: The quality of the identified research was generally low and there was a lack of comparison with the general population. Conclusion: Further investigation is needed to confirm the elevated risk of physical health comorbidities in older adults with bipolar disorder, and clinicians should consider interventions to improve their physical health.

Summary: This study found that both older age bipolar disorder (OABD) and late life depression (LLD) are associated with cognitive dysfunction. OABD patients showed more severe cognitive dysfunction compared to LLD patients, regardless of the severity of depressive symptoms. These findings suggest that other disease characteristics may contribute to the differences in cognitive functioning between OABD and LLD.

Summary: This study investigated the cognitive profile of patients with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) and found that cognitive impairment (CI) is common in these patients. Visual memory was the most affected cognitive domain. Gender, mood, fatigue, satisfaction with life, and perception of stigma were associated with cognitive performance.

Summary: This systematic review on the impact of disease progression in the treatment of bipolar disorder patients found that efficacy decreases with clinical progression, supporting early intervention. However, tailored recommendations cannot be made based on disease stages currently, highlighting the need for further research.

Summary: This study aims to explore the relationships among clinical characteristics of bipolar disorder (BD), cognitive dysfunction, and aging. The results support both an early impairment model and an accelerated aging model, indicating that different cognitive domains are affected differently by BD and aging.

Summary: This study investigated the lived experiences, treatment preferences, and definitions of wellness of individuals with mood disorders through surveys and focus groups. Findings revealed a desire for holistic treatment among participants, with key wellness priorities centered around independence, purpose in life, daily functioning, and contentment. The importance of these insights for research and clinical practice, particularly in terms of measurement-based care and wellness-oriented clinical assessments, are discussed.

Summary: Sleep disturbances are closely related to mental diseases such as substance use disorder (SUD) and schizophrenia (SZ). This study examined the circadian characteristics and quality of life (QOL) in patients with SUD and comorbid SZ (SUD + SZ). The findings showed that SUD + SZ patients had a more evening chronotype and poorer QOL compared to SUD patients. Treatment targeting circadian adjustments and lifestyle improvement may be beneficial for these patients.

Summary: This study developed a quantitative predictive model for bipolar disorder using machine learning algorithms and clinical data. The predictors included behavioral problems, school functioning, and anxiety/depression and aggression scales. The results have important clinical and scientific implications for assessing the risk of bipolar disorder in children.

Summary: The traditional approaches to measuring depression after traumatic brain injury (TBI) have limitations. This study adopted a symptom-oriented approach and found that post-TBI depression is highly heterogeneous. Different depressive symptoms have distinct associations with personal, injury-related, treatment, and outcome factors.

Summary: Despite rapid social changes in Hong Kong, marriage remains a strong protective factor against suicide for both men and women, particularly among younger individuals. Increasing suicide rates among divorced/separated, never-married, or widowed individuals suggest a need for more psychosocial support.

Summary: This study found that the experience of losing at least one night of sleep was associated with an increased risk of postpartum psychosis in women with bipolar disorder. Sleep quality in late pregnancy was not associated with postpartum psychosis, and perinatal sleep disruption was not associated with postpartum depression.

Summary: This study systematically reviewed the association between psychological pain and suicidality in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). The results showed that psychological pain was a risk factor for suicidality in MDD patients, especially for those of advancing age. Reducing psychological pain in MDD patients is important for preventing suicidality.

Summary: This study examined the relationship among family accommodation (FA), posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), and functional impairment. The results showed that FA was significantly associated with PTSS and functional impairment. Baseline FA partially mediated the relationship between baseline PTSS and functional impairment. Changes in FA from pre- to post-treatment were associated with relevant outcome variables at post-treatment and 12-month follow-up.
