A significant proportion of cancer survivors will experience some form of mental health compromise across domains including mood, anxiety, psychosis, eating disorders, and substance use. This psychopathology within cancer survivors is related to a range of negative outcomes and can also have a substantial negative impact on quality of life. Along with psychopathology, cognitive impairments are also commonly experienced, resulting in deficits in memory, reasoning, decision-making, speed of processing, and concentration, collectively referred to as cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). Within the non-oncology literature, cognitive deficits are consistently demonstrated to be a key transdiagnostic aetiological feature of psychopathology, functionally contributing to …
Artificial Intelligence In Perinatal Mental Health Research: A Scoping Review, Wai Hang Kwok, Yuanpeng Zhang, Guanjin Wang
Artificial Intelligence In Perinatal Mental Health Research: A Scoping Review, Wai Hang Kwok, Yuanpeng Zhang, Guanjin Wang
Research outputs 2022 to 2026
The intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and perinatal mental health research presents promising avenues, yet uncovers significant challenges for innovation. This review explicitly focuses on this multidisciplinary field and undertakes a comprehensive exploration of existing research therein. Through a scoping review guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework, we searched relevant literature spanning a decade (2013–2023) and selected fourteen studies for our analysis. We first provide an overview of the main AI techniques and their development, including traditional methods across different categories, as well as recent emerging methods in the field. Then, through our …

Family Members’ Experiences Of ‘Living Well’ With A Family Member With Depression, Amanda Cole, Julie Ann Pooley, Vivien Kemp, Lisa Whitehead
Research outputs 2022 to 2026
Background: With the high and growing prevalence of depression worldwide, there is an increasing number of families assuming the role of caregivers for family members with mental health conditions such as depression. Aim: The aim of this study was to explore how family members describe and perceive the experience of living well with a family member living with depression. Methods: Narrative inquiry was used to elicit stories from eight participants who lived with an adult family member diagnosed with depression. Narrative and thematic analysis were used. Findings: Participants described the experience of living well through the themes of ‘times of …

Dose-Response Effects Of Exercise On Mental Health In Community-Dwelling Older Adults: Exploration Of Genetic Moderators, Swathi Gujral, Marcia Burns, Kirk I. Erickson, Dana Rofey, Jeremiah J. Peiffer, Simon M. Laws, Belinda Brown
Research outputs 2022 to 2026
Background/Objective: (1) Examine the role of exercise intensity on mental health symptoms in a community-based sample of older adults. (2) Explore the moderating role of genetic variation in brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and apolipoprotein E (APOE) on the effects of exercise on mental health symptoms. Method: This study is a secondary analysis of a three-arm randomized controlled trial, comparing the effects of 6 months of high-intensity aerobic training vs. moderate-intensity aerobic training vs. a no-contact control group on mental health symptoms assessed using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS). The BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and APOE 4 carrier status were …
Maternal Health Considerations: Highlighting And Advancing Opportunities For Improved Maternal Health, Caitlin Fox-Harding
Maternal Health Considerations: Highlighting And Advancing Opportunities For Improved Maternal Health, Caitlin Fox-Harding
Research outputs 2022 to 2026
The special collection on Maternal Health Considerations offers a comprehensive exploration of critical issues surrounding maternal well-being across diverse contexts and disciplines. Recognising that maternal health extends beyond the physiological realm, this collection delves into the multifaceted dimensions of maternal well-being, including physical, mental, and socio-ecological factors. The collection comprises a series of interdisciplinary studies that investigate various facets of maternal health, from conception to postpartum stages. It addresses the complex interplay between biological, psychological, and socio-cultural determinants that influence maternal health outcomes. By adopting a holistic approach, the contributors shed light on the interconnectedness of maternal well-being. Key themes …
