The Impact

COVID-19 has led to an unprecedented disruption of normal social relationships and activities, which are so important during the teen years and young adulthood, and to education and economic activity worldwide. The impact of this on young people’s mental health and future prospects may affect their need for support and services, and the speed of the nation’s social recovery afterwards. This study focused on the unique challenges facing young people at different points during adolescent development, which spans from the onset of puberty until the mid-twenties. Although this is an immensely challenging time and there is a potential risk for long term trauma, adolescence can be a period of opportunity, where the teenagers’ brain enjoys greater capacity for change. Hence, the focus on young people is key for designing age-specific interventions and public policies, which can offer new strategies for instilling resilience, emotional regulation, and self-control. In fact, adolescents might be assisted to not only cope, but excel, in spite of the challenges imposed by this pandemic. Our work will feed into the larger societal response that utilizes the discoveries about adolescence in the way we raise, teach, and treat young people during this time of crisis. Wave 1 data has already been collected from 2,002 young people aged 13-24, measuring their mental health (anxiety, depression, trauma), family functioning, social networks, and resilience, and social risk-taking at the time of the pandemic. Here we present a preliminary report of our findings, (Report 1). Data collected 21/4/20- 29/4/20 - a month after the lockdown started).

Background:Quality of life (QoL) is considered an important outcome in the treatment of schizophrenia and is linked with clinical and social recovery. Until recently treatments of schizophrenia have focused mainly on reducing positive symptoms, often leaving patients with numerous residual difficulties. It's been expected that atypical antipsychotics improve QoL equally as they improve clinical outcome of the patients with schizophrenia.Objectives:To compare clinical improvement and QoL of patients treated with risperidone and clozapine two months after the beginning of treatment.Methods:The sample included 40 patients (17 males and 23 females, mean age 33.1) with diagnosis of schizophrenia according to ICD-X. the patients were treated with either risperidone (n=20) or clozapine (n=20). the PANSS and CGI scales for clinical status were applied at the beginning of the treatment and two months later. the QoL was assessed by the WHOQOL-BREF.Results:Analysis of data has shown a significant difference for all four domains (physical, psychological, social relationships and environment) at WHOQOL-BREF scale for both medications after two months, but no difference between the two antipsychotics. the patients treated with clozapine had significantly higher scores on PANSS at the beginning of treatment. PANSS and CGI applied after two months have not shown differences between the medications.Conclusion:Both clozapine and risperidone had equal and statistically significant effect in reducing the symptoms of schizophrenia measured by PANSS and CGI in two months period, as well as in improving the quality of life. However no difference was found between the two medications.

Social Recovery

Abstract Social and emotional recovery from burn injury is a complex process impacted by both clinical and social factors. Because level of education (LOE) has been correlated to overall health, health outcomes, and life expectancy, we questioned whether LOE might be associated with successful social recovery after burn injury. The Life Impact Burn Recovery Evaluation (LIBRE) data set served as a novel tool to explore this question. The LIBRE project is a collaborative effort designed to provide a clinical yardstick for social reintegration among burn survivors. After institutional review board approval, 601 burn survivor respondents, aged 18 or over with >5% TBSA burn were surveyed and a six-scale, 126-item LIBRE Profile was derived from their responses. LOE was collapsed into four categories ranging from less than high school equivalency certificate to graduate degree. Impact of burn injury on subsequent LOE was examined by splitting the sample into those burned at age 30 years or less and those burned at greater than 30 years of age. Regression models were run to estimate associations between education and scale scores with adjustment for age at injury, sex, marital status, work status, TBSA, and time since burn. Regression models were run on the entire cohort and then stratified by age at burn injury (≤30 vs >30). Among all subjects, we found an association between LOE and social recovery as measured by LIBRE scale scores. This association was contributed entirely from the cohort burned at age 30 or less: for those burned at greater than age 30, there was no association between LOE and social recovery. Of particular interest, the distribution of LOE among those burned at ≤ 30 was very similar to LOE distribution in both millennials and in the U.S. population at large. LOE appears to be associated with social recovery for those burned at younger ages but not for those burned at over age 30. More importantly, burn injury during schooling may have no impact on a survivor’s educational trajectory since distribution of LOE in our ≤30 cohort mirrors that of the general population. LOE and age at burn injury may provide a quick screen for survivors at risk of difficult social reintegration, allowing providers to target those at risk with additional peer support and counseling.
