Platform shift in mental health support among undergraduates: from campus counselors to GenAI-based consultation
China is advancing the implementation of the “AI+” initiative and exploring the promotion of AI technology in scenarios such as health management and assisted diagnosis. Against this backdrop, universities are accelerating the adoption of GenAI virtual counseling tools to address…
Suicide risk assessment: clinical implications of the unpredictability of suicidal behavior
Risk assessment in the context of suicidal ideation and behavior cannot be conducted with certainty. Recent meta-analyses demonstrate that neither individual risk factors, composite risk scores, clinical judgment, nor adherence to theoretical models or artificial intelligence enables sufficiently accurate prediction…
Reduced left dorsolateral prefrontal activation and right inferior frontal de-oxygenation differ between psychotic and non−psychotic adolescent depression during verbal fluency
BackgroundAdolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD) who exhibit psychotic symptoms (MDD-Psy) often show greater clinical severity and higher suicide risk than those without psychosis (MDD-NonPsy). It remains unclear whether prefrontal hemodynamic responses during cognitive challenge can differ between these subgroups.MethodsWe…
