RESUMO
The Child and Adolescent Mental Health Initiative (CAMHI) aims to enhance mental health care capacity for children and adolescents across Greece. Considering the need for evidence-based policy, the program developed an open-resource dataset for researching the field within the country. A comprehensive, mixed-method, community-based research was conducted in 2022/2023 assessing the current state, needs, barriers, and opportunities according to multiple viewpoints. We surveyed geographically distributed samples of 1,756 caregivers, 1,201 children/adolescents, 404 schoolteachers, and 475 health professionals using validated instruments to assess mental health symptoms, mental health needs, literacy and stigma, service use and access, professional practices, training background, and training needs and preferences. Fourteen focus groups were conducted with informants from diverse populations (including underrepresented minorities) to reach an in-depth understanding of those topics. A dataset with quantitative and qualitative findings is now available for researchers, policymakers, and society [ https://osf.io/crz6h/ and https://rpubs.com/camhi/sdashboard ]. This resource offers valuable data for assessing the needs and priorities for child and adolescent mental health care in Greece. It is now freely available to consult, and is expected to inform upcoming research and evidence-based professional training. This initiative may inspire similar ones in other countries, informing methodological strategies for researching mental health needs.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine the diurnal links between average and changes in average levels of prospectively rated mood, sleep, energy, and stress as predictors of incident headache in a community-based sample. METHODS: This observational study included structured clinical diagnostic assessment of both headache syndromes and mental disorders and electronic diaries that were administered 4 times per day for 2 weeks yielding a total of 4,974 assessments. The chief outcomes were incident morning (am) and later-day (pm) headaches. Generalized linear mixed-effects models were used to evaluate the average and lagged values of predictors including subjectively rated mood, anxiety, energy, stress, and sleep quality and objectively measured sleep duration and efficiency on incident am and pm headaches. RESULTS: The sample included 477 participants (61% female), aged 7 through 84 years. After adjusting for demographic and clinical covariates and emotional states, incident am headache was associated with lower average (ß = -0.206*; confidence intervals: -0.397 to -0.017) and a decrease in average sleep quality on the prior day (ß = -0.172*; confidence interval: -0.305, -0.039). Average stress and changes in subjective energy levels on the prior day were associated with incident headaches but with different valence for am (decrease) (ß = -0.145* confidence interval: -0.286, -0.005) and pm (increase) (ß = 0.157*; confidence interval: 0.032, 0.281) headache. Mood and anxiety disorders were not significantly associated with incident headache after controlling for history of a diagnosis of migraine. DISCUSSION: Both persistent and acute changes in arousal states manifest by subjective sleep quality and energy are salient precursors of incident headaches. Whereas poorer sleep quality and decreased energy on the prior day were associated with incident morning headache, an increase in energy and greater average stress were associated with headache onsets later in the day. Different patterns of predictors of morning and later-day incident headache highlight the role of circadian rhythms in the manifestations of headache. These findings may provide insight into the pathophysiologic processes underlying migraine and inform clinical intervention and prevention. Tracking these systems in real time with mobile technology provides a valuable ancillary tool to traditional clinical assessments.

Importance: Accelerometry has been increasingly used as an objective index of sleep, physical activity, and circadian rhythms in people with mood disorders. However, most prior research has focused on sleep or physical activity alone without consideration of the strong within- and cross-domain intercorrelations; and few studies have distinguished between trait and state profiles of accelerometry domains in major depressive disorder (MDD). Objectives: To identify joint and individual components of the domains derived from accelerometry, including sleep, physical activity, and circadian rhythmicity using the Joint and Individual Variation Explained method (JIVE), a novel multimodal integrative dimension-reduction technique; and to examine associations between joint and individual components with current and remitted MDD. Design, Setting, and Participants: This cross-sectional study examined data from the second wave of a population cohort study from Lausanne, Switzerland. Participants included 2317 adults (1164 without MDD, 185 with current MDD, and 968 with remitted MDD) with accelerometry for at least 7 days. Statistical analysis was conducted from January 2021 to June 2023. Main Outcomes and Measures: Features derived from accelerometry for 14 days; current and remitted MDD. Logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, and anxiety and substance use disorders. Results: Among 2317 adults included in the study, 1261 (54.42%) were female, and mean (SD) age was 61.79 (9.97) years. JIVE reduced 28 accelerometry features to 3 joint and 6 individual components (1 sleep, 2 physical activity, 3 circadian rhythms). Joint components explained 58.5%, 79.5%, 54.5% of the total variation in sleep, physical activity, and circadian rhythm domains, respectively. Both current and remitted depression were associated with the first 2 joint components that were distinguished by the salience of high-intensity physical activity and amplitude of circadian rhythm and timing of both sleep and physical activity, respectively. MDD had significantly weaker circadian rhythmicity. Conclusions and Relevance: Application of a novel multimodal dimension-reduction technique demonstrates the importance of joint influences of physical activity, circadian rhythms, and timing of both sleep and physical activity with MDD; dampened circadian rhythmicity may constitute a trait marker for MDD. This work illustrates the value of accelerometry as a potential biomarker for subtypes of depression and highlights the importance of consideration of the full 24-hour sleep-wake cycle in future studies.
