Summary: This study aimed to translate the Inventory of Statements About Self-Injury (ISAS) into Russian and evaluate its psychometric properties in a sample of patients with non-psychotic mental disorders and suicidal ideation (SI). The results showed that the Interpersonal functions of NSSI were associated with more severe depressive symptoms, NSSI history, number of NSSI methods, likelihood of future NSSI, and psychoticism.

Summary: This study found that most emerging adults with a history of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) report persistent self-injury during their college years. Risk factors for predicting NSSI persistence are mainly pre-college NSSI characteristics. Intervention targeting the highest predicted risk group could effectively reach students with high-frequency repetitive NSSI persistence. NSSI persistence during the first two college years predicts mental disorders, role impairment, and suicidal thoughts and behaviors during the third college year.

Summary: Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a serious public health concern among adolescents, with high prevalence rates. Factors such as depressive disorder, sexual abuse, and comorbidity are associated with experiencing NSSI thoughts and behaviors, and longitudinal studies are needed to investigate interventions that can reduce the persistence of NSSI.

Summary: This study used SVM and binary dragonfly algorithm to explore the key factors of NSSI in adolescents and found that education level, psychological conditions, personality traits, and childhood experiences had significant effects. These findings are of great theoretical significance for the prevention and intervention of NSSI in adolescents.

Summary: This study examined neurocognitive functioning in adolescent patients with non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). The findings challenge the importance of specific neurocognitive measures related to the presence or severity of NSSI in adolescents, suggesting that general intelligence plays a confounding role. Additionally, there was little evidence of a relationship between neurocognitive performance and clinical characteristics or phenotypes in the patient group.

Summary: This study aimed to explore the relationship between non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and childhood abuse in transgender individuals, as well as the mediating effect of emotional dysregulation traits. The results showed that childhood abuse was positively correlated with emotional dysregulation traits and NSSI behaviors. Emotional dysregulation traits partially mediated the association between childhood abuse and NSSI behaviors, accounting for 23.23% of the total effect. Screening for emotional dysregulation traits and timely interventions are needed to address discrimination against transgender individuals.

Summary: This exploratory study examined the relationship between nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and eating disorders (ED). It found that some individuals with NSSI perceive ED behaviors as a form of self-injury and that these individuals tend to have more severe clinical presentations. These findings suggest that SIDES may serve as a marker for greater clinical severity.

Summary: The study found that self-harm presentations in pediatric emergency departments have different clinical and demographic characteristics, as well as leading diagnoses. Self-poisoning was the most common method, with age, gender, relational problems, and psychiatric admission history being important predictive factors for suicide attempts.

Summary: This study investigated the incidence risk and prevalence of suicidal thoughts and behavior among healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic in England. The results showed that a significant number of healthcare workers reported experiencing suicidal thoughts, and a lack of managerial support and the ability to raise safety concerns were associated with increased suicidal ideation.

Summary: Sexual minority youth are overrepresented in the juvenile justice system and experience more mental health issues than their heterosexual counterparts. This study provides a descriptive evaluation of the prevalence and mental health concerns of sexual minority youth with early system contact. The findings indicate that these youth have higher levels of mental health symptoms, including depression, anxiety, thought disturbance, and higher rates of self-injury and suicide attempts.

Summary: This article provides a summary of existing research on universal prevention of NSSI in adolescents and finds that there are currently only a few available studies, none of which prove the effectiveness of universal prevention in reducing NSSI incidence. The article also highlights that existing research primarily focuses on selected/targeted prevention and psychoeducational methods, and proposes implications for future research directions.
