ABSTRACT
Objective: to study the causes and predictors of mental disorders during the COVID-19 epidemic in those who turned to psychiatrist for the first time, as well as in patients with already diagnosed mental illness. Patients and methods. We examined 100 patients who turned to a psychiatrist due to a deterioration in their mental state during the pandemic, 50 patients were newly diagnosed (Group 1) and 50 with previously diagnosed mental disorders (Group 2). The study was carried out by a clinical method using a specially designed map, followed by statistical processing of the obtained data. Results and discussion. Mental disorders caused by the COVID-19 pandemic more often occurred at a young age, in patients with higher and secondary specialized education, and in single patients. In the 1st group, as a result of exposure to psychogenic factors (the influence of the media, quarantine, economic changes), anxiety (36.8%) and depressive (21.1%) disorders occurred more often, and after the coronavirus infection, depressive disorders were in the first place (54.2%). The 2nd group mostly included patients with endogenous disorders (bipolar affective disorder - 24%, recurrent depressive disorder - 20%, schizophrenia - 20%), which were exacerbated more often as a result of COVID-19, to a lesser extent - psychogenic (experiences associated with a change in material status and illness of relatives). Obsessive-compulsive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, somatoform disorders have been associated with epidemic factors. Conclusion. The results obtained indicate that there are differences between the mental disorders that first appeared during the pandemic and the exacerbations of the condition in mentally ill patients, which relate to the predictors, causes and clinical manifestations of these disorders.Copyright © 2022 Ima-Press Publishing House.

ABSTRACT
Aims: People with psychotic and bipolar disorders were particularly vulnerable to poor mental health and wellbeing in the early phases of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, their subjective experience of what they were most worried about concerning the pandemic, what contributed most to how they were doing, and what they suggest the mental health services could do to improve care during a pandemic, requires investigation. Method(s): Three months after the outbreak of COVID-19, 520 people with psychotic and bipolar disorders responded to an online survey about the pandemic impact on mental health and wellbeing, including three open-ended questions. The material was analysed using thematic analysis. Result(s): The participants' main worries were: fear of the virus itself;fear of protective measures;fear of a completely changed world;fear of social consequences;and fear of poor mental health. These worries involved others as much as themselves. Participants' experience of main positive contributors were: a slower pace of life;more time to reflect;maintaining daily routine;keeping up social contact;and mental health service availability. The most prominent suggestions to improved mental health services were: stay open;be proactive;and individualize treatment. Conclusion(s): In the early stages of the pandemic people with psychotic and bipolar disorders were equally worried about the pandemic consequences for others and the world at large, not just for themselves. Positive contributors to wellbeing included increased calm and time to respite. They suggested that mental health services remain available and flexible during future pandemics.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has made it difficult for patients with Schizophrenia and Bipolar Affective Disorder (BPAD) to receive ongoing care, which has led to non adherence to medication and undesirable health outcomes. Lower treatment adherence in severe mental illness might lead to symptom exacerbation and relapses and might cause a strain on the health system during COVID-19 pandemic. Aim: To assess the treatment adherence in Schizophrenia and BPAD patients during prevailing COVID-19 situation in India. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted among 92 patients with Schizophrenia and BPAD through a questionnaire between January to September 2021 in a COVID-19 care hospital Government Medical College Palakkad/District hospital Palakkad, Kerala, India. Demographic and clinical data, adherence to treatment, along with Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D). Clinical Global impression (CGI S&I), Work and Social Adjustment Scale (WSAS), Modified COVID Threat Scale (CTS) and Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS) were collected. The outcomes included adherence to medication, deterioration of the psychopathology, improvement in severity, social functioning. Descriptive statistics was used to define the sample characteristics and presented as mean and standard deviation and frequency and percentages. Spearman's Correlation coefficient was used to find the correlation between MARS and other variables: CTS, BPRS, YMRS, HAM-D, CGI and WSAS. Results: A total of 92 patients were interviewed which comprised of 43 patients with Schizophrenia and 49 patients with Bipolar disorder. As assessed by MARS rating scale 19 patients (20.65%) had a MARS score less than six suggesting poor adherence and 73 (79.35%) had MARS score 6 and greater suggesting better adherence to the treatment. This was supported by negative correlation with BPRS, YMRS, HAM-D and CGI-S and CGI-I scales which implies that the COVID-19 pandemic did not hinder the patients to take the medication. The mean MARS score was 7.31±2.11. A total of 37 (40.2%) patients had acute exacerbation of the illness during the COVID-19 related lockdown and 37 (40.2%) had exacerbation during the six months prior to COVID-19 lockdown. There was negative correlation between MARS scores and the CTS but was not statistically significant. Conclusion: Despite the COVID-19 pandemic related restriction, patients with Schizophrenia and BPAD were adherent to the medication and the number of relapses during COVID-19 pandemic was similar to the period before the pandemic. COVID-19 related anxiety didn't have an impact on medication adherence and relapse in this study.

ABSTRACT
The traditional de novo drug discovery is time consuming, costly and in some instances the drugs will fail to treat the disease which result in a huge loss to the organization. Drug repurposing is an alternative drug discovery process to overcome the limitations of the De novo drug discovery process. Ithelps for the identification of drugs to the rare diseases as well as in the pandemic situationwithin short span of time in a cost-effective way. The underlying principle of drug repurposing is that most of the drugs identified on a primary purpose have shown to treat other diseases also. One such example is Tocilizumab is primarily used for rheumatoid arthritis and it is repurposed to treat cancer and COVID-19. At present, nearly30% of the FDA approved drugs to treat various diseases are repurposed drugs. The drug repurposing is either drug-centric or disease centric and can be studied by using both experimental and in silico studies. The in silico repurpose drug discovery process is more efficient as it screens thousands of compounds from the diverse libraries within few days by various computational methods like Virtual screening, Docking, MD simulations,Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS), etc. with certain limitations.These limitationscan be addressed by effective integration of advanced technologies to identify a novel multi-purpose drug.Copyright © 2023, Association of Biotechnology and Pharmacy.

ABSTRACT
Background : Depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older age bipolar disorder (BD) are associated with decreased quality of life and premature mortality. Yet, currently available pharmacological treatments are limited in efficacy. Mind-body interventions have been shown to improve mood, quality of life, and cognition in other adult populations, and may thus provide a promising therapeutic alternative. Here we conduct the first randomized controlled trial (RCT) examining the efficacy of a group Qigong/Tai Chi intervention (QT-BD) for reducing depressive symptoms in middle-aged and older adults with BD. As a further innovation during the COVID pandemic, we used Zoom to deliver the group intervention and active control. Methods : We conducted a virtually-delivered 12-week pilot RCT with 23 patients with BD aged >= 40 comparing a QT-BD intervention versus an active control (light exercise). We assessed depressive symptoms (primary outcome), verbal fluency (secondary outcome), and functioning/quality of life (exploratory outcomes) at baseline and 12-weeks. Results : No statistically significant differences were observed between groups for all outcomes (all p's>0.05). However, non-significant decreases in depressive symptoms were found in the subgroup of participants with baseline MADRS scores ≥10 in the QT-BD intervention only (p=0.07). Limitations : Our sample size was limited and the virtually-delivered format may have limited the positive benefits of face-to-face interventions. Conclusions : This novel pilot study suggests that QT-BD may be a feasible and efficacious intervention for reducing depressive symptoms in middle- and older-aged BD, particularly when baseline MADRS is ≥10, warranting further investigation in larger-scale trials.
ABSTRACT
Psychiatry undergraduate training has been significantly curtailed by the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. This article examines the use of Shakespeare's Hamlet, especially via the characters of Hamlet and Ophelia, to impart two core skills in psychiatry, namely diagnostic abilities and empathy. Medical students undergoing the psychiatry posting watched Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet online, focusing on identifying psychopathology, forming diagnoses, identifying countertransferences, and developing empathy through acting out close passages. Students were able to identify the features of bipolar disorder in Hamlet, correlating his behavior with separate depressive and manic episodes. They were also able to appreciate the unique quality of dissociation in Ophelia, especially in Act 4 of Hamlet, and recognize it as a manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder. Through acting out closed passages, students were also able to feel empathy by putting themselves into the shoes of Hamlet and Ophelia. Such a pedagogical approach has additional unexpected utility in view of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has significantly curtailed face-to-face medical education, leading to alternative online methods such as movies and Shakespearean plays in psychiatry education. In conclusion, though online methods cannot fully supplant face-to-face patient contact, they can be crucial tools in times of necessity and allow students to engage in interdisciplinary education, marrying the arts and the humanities.
ABSTRACT
Background: The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the constant transformation of the SARS-COV-2 virus form, exposure to substantial psychosocial stress, environmental change, and isolation have led to the inference that the overall population's mental health could be affected, resulting in an increase in cases of psychosis. Objective(s): We initiated a systematic review to determine the impact of the SARS-COV-2 virus and its long-term effects-in both symptomatic and asymptomatic cases-on people with or without psychosis. We envisioned that this would give us an insight into effective clinical intervention methods for patients with psychosis during and after the pandemic. Method(s): We selected fifteen papers that met our inclusion criteria, i.e., those that considered participants with or without psychiatric illness and exposed to SARS-COV-2 infection, for this review and were retrieved via Google, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, PubMed, and PsychINFO Database. Key Gap: There is a dearth of research in understanding how COVID-19 affects people with or without a prior personal history of psychosis. Result(s): The systematic review summary provides insight into the state of knowledge. Insights from the systematic review have also been reviewed from the salutogenesis model's perspec-tive. There is moderate evidence of new-onset psychosis during the COVID-19 pandemic in which some antipsychotics treated the psychotic symptoms of patients while treating for COVID-19. Suggestions and recommendations are made for preventive and promotive public health strategies. Conclusion(s): The Salutogenesis model and Positive Psychology Interventions (PPI) provide another preventive and promotive public health management approach.Copyright © 2023 Bentham Science Publishers.
ABSTRACT
Objectives: To examine temporal trends of FDA-approved and off-label second-generation antipsychotic (SGA) prescribing for adolescents over time through the Covid-19 pandemic. Method(s): This is a new-user, retrospective longitudinal panel study using electronic health record data from a large, integrated health care system. Outpatient prescription orders for a new SGA (index date) for adolescents (age 10-17 years) during 2013-2021 were analyzed. Prescription orders were linked to diagnoses at time of encounter to examine prescribing behavior. A one-year lookback period was used for baseline inclusion and exclusion criteria, including one-year "washout" of SGAs and continuous insurance enrollment. FDA-approved use was determined by two outpatient diagnoses (one baseline diagnosis and the prescription order diagnosis) for autism, psychotic disorders, bipolar disorders, or Tourette's;the remaining proportion was considered potentially off-label. We report crude annual prescribing rates per 1,000 youths. Result(s): There were 8,145 unique patients with new SGA prescription orders, of which 5,828 (71.6%) had linked diagnoses available. Calendar year 2013 had the highest prescribing rate prior to Covid-19 onset (2.1 per 1,000) but then declined through 2016 (1.7 per 1,000). Prescribing rates in 2020 (2.0 per 1,000) and 2021 (2.2 per 1,000) were higher than those between 2017-2019. Across all study years, SGA prescriptions were mostly off-label and ordered for aripiprazole, quetiapine, or risperidone. The proportion of off-label indications was highest in 2013 (80.1%) and lowest (69.1%) in 2019. Off-label proportions increased again in 2020 (76.1%) and in 2021 (74.1%). At baseline, patients frequently had other psychotropic prescriptions (e.g., antidepressants 63.3%, stimulants 22.9%, and sedatives/hypnotics 20.7%). Conclusion(s): A general decline in SGA prescribing rates among adolescents was observed from 2013 to 2019, but then increased following Covid-19 onset. Despite known safety risks, off-label use of SGAs remains prominent. Future studies are needed to better understand prescribing outside of pediatric professional society guidelines.Copyright © 2023
ABSTRACT
The entire world is currently fighting the severe and dangerous pandemic COVID-19, which is causing bodily suffering and mental distress due to the rapidly increasing number of infected patients and deaths worldwide. Many COVID-19 treatments are going on in India, and some treatments are under development for these patients. But, treatment selection for the COVID-19 patients is challenging in the present situation. Through the multi-criteria decision-making technique, they can select the COVID-19 treatments easily. Therefore, we have developed an MCDM technique to select COVID-19 treatments in India. This paper invented the value and ambiguity of bipolar fuzzy (BF) numbers. Additionally, some fundamental theorems and properties of BF-numbers are studied. A novel positive and negative interpreter ranking index of BF numbers has been introduced. In the present day, most human decision-making relies heavily on bipolar fuzzy information. Hence, we developed an MCDM technique with bipolar fuzzy details. A comprehensive range of human decisions for selecting COVID-19 treatments is based on positive and negative double-sided or bipolar judgemental thinking. To select COVID-19 treatments in India, we have applied the proposed MCDM technique with BTrF information. Moreover, to demonstrate the applicability of our proposed MCDM method, we have considered a numerical example with BF data. Finally, we give the comparison study to show the effectiveness of our proposed MCDM method with other existing decision-making methods.
ABSTRACT
Comprehensive medication management (CMM) is increasingly provided by health care teams through telehealth or hybrid modalities. The purpose of this scoping literature review was to assess the published literature and examine the economic, clinical, and humanistic outcomes of CMM services provided by pharmacists via telehealth or hybrid modalities. This scoping review followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis extension for Scoping Reviews. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies were included if they: reported on economic, clinical, or humanistic outcomes;were conducted via telehealth or hybrid modalities;included a pharmacist on their interprofessional team;and evaluated CMM services. The search was conducted between January 1, 2000, and September 28, 2021. The search strategy was adapted for use in Medline (PubMed);Embase;Cochrane;Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature;PsychINFO;International Pharmaceutical s;Scopus;and grey literature. Four reviewers extracted data using a screening tool developed for this study and reviewed for risk of bias. Authors screened 3500 articles, from which 11 studies met the inclusion criteria (9 observational studies, 2 RCTs). In seven studies, clinical outcomes improved with telehealth CMM interventions compared to either usual care, face-to-face CMM, or educational controls, as shown by the statistically significant changes in chronic disease clinical outcomes. Two studies evaluated and found increased patient and provider satisfaction. One study described a source of revenue for a telehealth CMM service. Overall, study results indicate that telehealth CMM services, in select cases, may be associated with improved clinical outcomes, but the methods of the included studies were not homogenous enough to conclude that telehealth or hybrid modalities were superior to in-person CMM. To understand the full impact on the Quadruple Aim, additional research is needed to investigate the financial outcomes of CMM conducted using telehealth or hybrid technologies.Copyright © 2022 Pharmacotherapy Publications, Inc.

ABSTRACT
Introduction. Interstitial pregnancy (IP) is the rarest type of tubal pregnancy with a high rupture rate and often remains asymptomatic in the first 10-12 gestational weeks. Therefore, the timing of the diagnosis is crucial for successful management. Case report. Two patients, aged 28 and 22, were diagnosed with IP using transvaginal ultrasound. Both patients were asymptomatic, with initial serum betahCG of 6,664 mIU/mL and 4,641 mIU/mL, respectively. Since they refused treatment with methotrexate and wanted to preserve their fertility, we performed operative hysteroscopy with resection and evacuation of the gestational tissue. The procedures were uneventful. The betahCG levels dropped significantly, and the patients were discharged after three and four hospital days, respectively. Conclusion. Using hysteroscopic procedures, we successfully treated two asymptomatic patients with IP of gestational age < 10 weeks by ultrasonography and levels of serum betahCG < 7,000 mIU/mL. With the occurrence of IP but also the numerous advantages of hysteroscopy, large, multicenter studies are necessary to further investigate the place of this approach as a single treatment method for IP. Trends and consequences observed during the COVID-19 pandemic correlate with the importance of timely diagnosis of ectopic pregnancies, the benefits of a minimally invasive approach in their treatment, and epidemiologically justified shorter hospital stays.Copyright © 2023 Inst.

ABSTRACT
Background: Bipolar electrocautery tonsillectomy has been the preferred technique for many otolaryngologists, yet coblation tonsillectomy is gaining popularity in the current practice. This study aims at comparing both techniques in terms of pain, bleeding, and healing. Result(s): A total of 120 patients were randomly divided into two equal groups. Overall mean pain score associated with coblation tonsillectomy was statistically less than that caused by bipolar electrocautery throughout the follow-up period (p < 0.001). The difference in pain duration was statistically longer for the bipolar group. The incidence of postoperative hemorrhage-both reactionary and secondary-was statistically higher in the bipolar group. Coblation tonsillectomy showed statistically shorter duration of healing (p < 0.001). Conclusion(s): Coblation tonsillectomy is associated with less pain severity and shorter pain duration, fewer bleeding incidents, and more prompt healing.Copyright © 2022, The Author(s).

ABSTRACT
The following paper described two cases of patients with catatonic depression in bipolar disorder (BD) referred to our electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) service. Both were deemed not medically fit for ECT, and were, instead, treated with intravenous (IV) ketamine. Both responded with a resolution of symptoms, returning to baseline level of functioning. During the COVID-19 pandemic, given the risks associated with providing ECT (an aerosol generating procedure) and, in the context of limited resources, ketamine therapy for catatonia is a potentially beneficial alternative or supportive treatment to ECT that merits additional research.
ABSTRACT
Despite the significant increase in research on mask filtration testing since the COVID-19 pandemic, there remains considerable ambiguity regarding which parameters affect particle filtration efficiency (PFE) and how differences in standard testing protocols can lead to divergent PFE values. We evaluated the PFE (and differential pressure) of several common face masks and community face mask materials including woven cotton, spunbond polypropylene, and meltblown polypropylene, testing in accordance with ASTM F2100/2299 standards for medical masks, using polystyrene latex (PSL) aerosol, as well as NIOSH standards for respirators, using NaCl aerosol. In both cases, PFE was measured with and without aerosol charge neutralization, which is used to bring the particle population to a known, equilibrium bipolar charge distribution. Aerosols of either composition that were not neutralized (untreated) led to significant increases in measured PFE, especially in the case of PSL. In contrast, effective neutralization led to lower PFE measurements that also showed little to no dependence on aerosol composition across most materials. To investigate further, the bipolar charge distributions of PSL and NaCl aerosols, both neutralized and untreated, were characterized using an aerodynamic aerosol classifier operated in tandem with a scanning mobility particle sizer (AAC-SMPS). This technique illustrated the differences in the distribution of particle charge states between PSL and NaCl aerosols of the same size, and between PSL particles of different sizes, revealing the presence of highly charged particles in many cases. Most importantly, the equilibrium charge distribution after neutralization is shown to be independent of particle composition or initial charge distribution, highlighting the crucial role of aerosol charge neutralizers in preventing overestimates of mask performance (due to electrostatic effects) and promoting consistency in standard testing procedures.
ABSTRACT
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare systems rapidly embraced technology as a means of providing care while adhering to social distancing protocols. In this brief article, we report on a new telehealth initiative recently implemented in an out-patient psychiatric setting and outline the novel role telehealth may serve in facilitating psychiatric care globally. The uptake of telehealth represents a new and exciting opportunity to increase both access to, and quality of, care for people with mental illness.
