RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Medical training poses significant challenge to medical student wellbeing. With the alarming trend of trainee burnout, mental illness, and suicide, previous studies have reported potential risk factors associated with suicidal behaviours among medical students. The objective of this study is to provide a systematic overview of risk factors for suicidal ideation (SI) and suicide attempt (SA) among medical students and summarize the overall risk associated with each risk factor using a meta-analytic approach. METHODS: Systemic search of six electronic databases including MEDLINE, Embase, Education Source, Scopus, PsycInfo, and CINAHL was performed from database inception to March 19, 2021. Studies reporting original quantitative or epidemiological data on risk factors associated with SI and SA among undergraduate medical students were included. When two or more studies reported outcome on the same risk factor, a random-effects inverse variance meta-analysis was performed to estimate the overall effect size. RESULTS: Of 4,053 articles identified, 25 studies were included. Twenty-two studies reported outcomes on SI risk factors only, and three studies on both SI and SA risk factors. Meta-analysis was performed on 25 SI risk factors and 4 SA risk factors. Poor mental health outcomes including depression (OR 6.87; 95% CI [4.80-9.82] for SI; OR 9.34 [4.18-20.90] for SA), burnout (OR 6.29 [2.05-19.30] for SI), comorbid mental illness (OR 5.08 [2.81-9.18] for SI), and stress (OR 3.72 [1.39-9.94] for SI) presented the strongest risk for SI and SA among medical students. Conversely, smoking cigarette (OR 1.92 [0.94-3.92]), family history of mental illness (OR 1.79 [0.86-3.74]) and suicidal behaviour (OR 1.38 [0.80-2.39]) were not significant risk factors for SI, while stress (OR 3.25 [0.59-17.90]), female (OR 3.20 [0.95-10.81]), and alcohol use (OR 1.41 [0.64-3.09]) were not significant risk factors for SA among medical students. CONCLUSIONS: Medical students face a number of personal, environmental, and academic challenges that may put them at risk for SI and SA. Additional research on individual risk factors is needed to construct effective suicide prevention programs in medical school.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the magnitude and determinants of burnout among emergency physicians and nurses working at emergency departments of hospitals in Abha and Khamis Mushait cities. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: A cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted in emergency departments of hospitals in Abha and Khamis Mushait cities belonging to Ministry of Health. All physicians (n=95) and nurses (n=187) currently working at these sites were invited to participate in the study by filling a validated self-administered questionnaire including two main sections: personal and professional characteristics of physicians and nurses as well as Maslach burnout inventory (MBI) to assess the three components of the burnout syndrome: emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced personal accomplishment. RESULTS: The study included 282 physicians and nurses. The age of more than half of them (54.3%) ranged between 31 and 35 years. Most of them (70.9%) were females. About two-thirds of the respondents (66.3%) were nurses while the remaining 33.7% were physicians. Majority of the emergency healthcare professionals (88.7%) had high emotional exhaustion. The prevalence of high depersonalization (cynicism) was 20.6% whereas that of low personal accomplishment was 41.1% among emergency healthcare professionals. The overall prevalence of burnout among healthcare professionals was 16.3%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that male healthcare professionals were at almost higher three-folded risk for developing burnout compared to females (aOR=2.76; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.21-6.28, p=0.017)). Smokers were at higher significant risk for burnout compared to nonsmokers (aOR=15.37; 95% CI: 7.06-33.45, p<0.001). Healthcare professionals who reported a history of taking medications for sleep disorders expressed higher risk for burnout opposed to those with no history of sleep disorder medication (aOR=6.59; 95% CI: 2.08-20.81, p=0.001). CONCLUSION: A considerable proportion of physicians and nurses working at emergency departments of hospitals in Abha and Khamis Mushait cities had burnout syndrome, particularly high emotional exhaustion and low personal accomplishment.

Introducción: El agotamiento emocional entre los estudiantes puede repercutir en su desarrollo académico y desenvolviendo personal. Objetivo: describir las características del agotamiento emocional en estudiantes de Odontología. Material y Métodos: Se diseñó un estudio transversal, prospectivo que incluyó 139 estudiantes de la Facultad de Odontología de la Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Lima, Perú. Se utilizó la técnica de la encuesta a través del cuestionario Inventario Maslach para el Burnout que evaluó las dimensiones de agotamiento, despersonalización (cinismo) y logros personales. Resultados: Se encontró un puntaje promedio de 49,75 ± 9,57; el valor fue mayor en los estudiantes del último año (55,09 ± 9,08). El agotamiento emocional tuvo un valor de 16,78 ± 7,62; la despersonalización de 10,19 ± 4,49 y los logros personales de 22,78 ± 4,9. Respecto a la puntuación total del cuestionario y al agotamiento emocional, los estudiantes de quinto año evidenciaron diferencias significativas con los demás años; respecto al cinismo los estudiantes de tercer año evidenciaron diferencias significativas sobre los de quinto y segundo año. Conclusiones: Según los puntajes encontrados el nivel de agotamiento emocional es moderado en los estudiantes de Odontología y los valores aumentan a medida que avanzan los años de estudio y se agudiza principalmente en la transición de los cursos teórico-prácticos hacia los cursos y exigencias clínicas de atención con los pacientes(AU)
Introduction: Emotional exhaustion among students can have an impact on their academic and personal development. Objective: To describe the characteristics of emotional exhaustion in dental students. Material and Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional study was designed. It included 139 students of the Faculty of Dentistry of the National University of San Marcos, Lima. Peru. The Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey was used, which evaluated the exhaustion and depersonalization (cynicism) dimensions, as well as personal achievement. Results: An average score of 49.75 ± 9.57 was found; being higher in the students of the last year (55.09 ± 9.08). The value of emotional exhaustion was 16.78 ± 7.62, the one of depersonalization was 10.19 ± 4.49, and the values of personal achievements were 22.78 ± 4.9. Regarding the total score of the survey and the emotional exhaustion, the fifth-year students showed significant differences in regard to other years. In relation to cynicism, the third year students showed significant differences over the fifth and second years. Conclusions: According to the scores found, the level of emotional exhaustion is moderate in dental students and this increases as the years of study progress and becomes more acute in the transition from theoretical-practical courses to courses and clinical demands of patient care(AU)
