Objective:To investigate the prevalence,related factors,and career implications of occupational burnout among resident physicians during standardized training in Inner Mongolia.Methods:This cross-sectional study used convenience sampling to enroll 2 891 resident physicians,assessing them with a self-developed general information questionnaire,socio-psychological scales,and a universal burnout inventory.Latent profile analysis clas-sified participants based on burnout dimensions,while logistic regression models examined the factors influencing burnout and their relationship with career choices.Results:Resident physicians were divided into low(59.0%),moderate(28.9%),and high(12.1%)burnout subgroups.Logistic regression showed that,compared to the low burnout group,significant risk factors included professional master's students(OR=0.44),working>70 hours weekly(OR=0.63),>4 night shifts monthly(OR=0.66),anxiety(mild OR=0.49;moderate OR=0.26;se-vere OR=0.14),depression(mild OR=0.38;moderate OR=0.24;severe OR=0.11),insomnia(mild OR=0.51;moderate OR=0.44;severe OR=0.38),low social support(OR=0.23),and low happiness index(OR=0.42).Male residents(OR=1.25)were less likely to experience burnout.High burnout residents were 5.11 times more likely to quit the medical profession.Conclusion:Training intensity and socio-psychological factors signifi-cantly contribute resident physicians' burnout levels,with severe burnout increase career attrition.

Objective:This meta-analysis aims to explore the most consistent changes in cortical thickness in drug-naive first-episode patients with major depressive disorder (DF-MDD).Methods:Systematic and comprehensive searches were conducted to acquire relevant literature from the PubMed and Web of Science databases for the studies published from inception to July 23, 2023, by using the keywords ("depression" OR "depressive disorder" OR "unipolar depression") AND ("cortical thickness"OR"thickness"). The SDM (signed differential mapping) software was used to perform whole-brain voxel-wise meta-analysis, heterogeneity test, and assess publication bias. Meta-regression analysis was employed to examine the impact of disease severity on cortical thickness in depression, and heterogeneity was tested, along with an assessment of publication bias.Results:Eight studies were ultimately included, encompassing 417 DF-MDD patients and 409 healthy controls. Compared to the healthy control group, DF-MDD patients exhibited significantly decreased cortical thickness in multiple brain regions, including the supplementary motor area ( Z=-2.471, P<0.000 5) and the rolandic operculum ( Z=-2.190, P<0.000 5). Further regression analysis found that the disease severity was positively correlated with the cortical thickness in the supplementary motor area ( Z=2.265, P<0.000 5) and the rolandic operculum ( Z=1.56, P<0.000 5). Additionally, the average depressive duration was positively correlated with cortical thickness in the right opercular part of the inferior frontal gyrus ( Z=1.922, P<0.000 5), and negatively correlated with changes in the right midcingulate cortex ( Z=-3.035, P<0.000 5) in DF-MDD. Conclusion:DF-MDD patients exhibit reduced cortical thickness in the supplementary motor area and the operculum area during the early stages of the disease. And the observed pattern of cortical alterations is associated with both the severity and duration of the disease.

Insomnia symptom is one of the most common types of sleep disturbances.Apart from being a risk factor for psychiatric disorders, insomnia symptom has been found to affect the course of psychiatric disorders and increase the relapse rate of psychiatric disorders.Therefore, insomnia treatment is beneficial to mitigate the psychiatric symptoms among chronic insomnia patients, which may help prevent mental health disorders.On the other hand, insomnia treatment for psychiatric patients is conductive to reduce the harm consequence in social function, which can help improving the prognosis of psychiatric disorders.Cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is a first-line treatment for chronic insomnia.This paper reviews the research progress on the efficiency of CBT-I on the psychiatric symptoms of chronic insomnia patients, as well as its application in comorbid psychiatric conditions.Findings from previous research suggested that CBT-I is effective to improve the psychiatric symptoms of insomnia patients through insomnia improvement, and it can also promote the remission of depression and anxiety symptoms, reduce the risk of substance disorder and suicide behaviors, and reduce the impairment of life quality and costs of treatment through insomnia improvement among psychiatric patients comorbid with insomnia, which indicated that CBT-I is a safe and effective treatment for insomnia symptoms in psychiatric patients.Moreover, this paper listed the contraindications and the decision-to-treat algorithm of CBT-I among psychiatric patients, as well as the CBT-I availability and adherence that limited the clinical application.More understanding of CBT-I is beneficial to provide support for a broad clinical application in mental health services.

With the development of the COVID-19 epidemic, the psychological impacts and stress-related symptoms associated with it have gradually appeared. The preventative and therapeutic psychological crisis interventions are urgently needed. This article focused on the international psychological crisis intervention models, which included the critical incident stress management, the task model, and the assessment-crisis intervention-trauma treatment intervention model. The aim of the current study was to form the suitable interventions for COVID-19 according to existing intervention methods and the specific characteristics of COVID-19. Possible coping strategies were also proposed for COVID-19 psychological crisis, which provided a theoretical basis for establishing an integrated public health emergency system and mechanism for psychological crisis prevention, evaluation, intervention and follow-up in China.

Stigma of mental illness has significantly adverse impacts on the work and daily life of relevant populations, which made it a critical and urgent problem to be solved in the field of mental health. The purpose of this review is to provide a comprehensive elaboration and summarization of mental illness stigma from the following four aspects: the definition and classification; research measurements; current status; and negative consequences to provide novel implications and strategies for future research and clinical practice, including development of stigma-specific scale, mechanism exploration, as well as implementation of relevant interventions.

Objective To overview the development of mental hospitals in China over the past 15 years and provide evidence for making policy decisions and allocating resources.Methods The data of health resources and medical service in mental hospitals were extracted from China Health Statistics Yearbook,and pooled and analyzed by excel and SPSS20.0.Results Medical resources:(1) From 2002 to 2016,the health budget allocated to mental hospitals remained stable in China,ranging from 2% to 3%.(2) The number of mental hospitals increased from 583 in 2002 to 1 026 in 2016.Compared to public hospitals,the number of private hospitals increased faster (x2=191.107,P<0.01).(3) The median numbers of psychiatric beds in mental hospitals were 0.73 per 10 000 population in 2002 and 2.15 per 10 000 population in 2016.(4) The numbers of doctors and nurses in mental hospitals increased from 1.27 per 100 000 and 1.97 per 100 000 in 2002 to 2.15 per 100 000 and 4.55 per 100 000 in 2016 respectively.Medical service:(1) The numbers of visits and inpatients in mental hospitals increased from 10 340.1thousand and 425.4 thousand in 2002 to 35 009.2 thousand and 1 751.2 thousand in 2016.(2) The beds utilization ratio increased to 95.5% in 2016 from 79.0% in 2002.(3) There were only 2.53 daily visits and 4.58 daily inpatients per doctor in 2002,which have risen to 4.70 and 9.57 in 2016 respectively.Conclusion The mental health hospitals,psychiatric beds and psychiatric staff in China have dramatically increased from 2002 to 2016,and more and more people were seeking psychiatric medical services by years.Whereas,there are still some problems that need to be solved such as still low financial input given the heavier medical burden.
