Article Abstract
Unlabelled: Despite the known benefits of supportive work environments for promoting patient quality and safety and healthcare worker retention, there is no clear mandate for improving work environments within Learning Health Systems (LHS) nor an LHS wellness competency. Striking rises in burnout levels among healthcare workers provide urgency for this topic.
Methods: We brought three experts on moral injury, burnout prevention, and ethics to a recurring, interactive LHS training program "Design Shop" session, harnessing scholars' ideas prior to the meeting. Generally following SQUIRE 2.0 guidelines, we evaluated the prework and discussion via informal content analysis to develop a set of pathways for developing moral injury and burnout prevention programs. Along these lines, we developed a new competency for moral injury and burnout prevention within LHS training programs.
Results: In preparation for the session, scholars differentiated moral injury from burnout, highlighted the profound impact of COVID-19 on moral injury, and proposed testable interventions to reduce injury. Scholar and expert input was then merged into developing the new competency in moral injury and burnout prevention. In particular, the competency focuses on preparing scholars to (1) demonstrate knowledge of moral injury and burnout, (2) measure burnout, moral injury, and their remediable predictors, (3) use methods for improving burnout, (4) structure training programs with supportive work environments, and (5) embed burnout and moral injury prevention into LHS structures.
Conclusions: Burnout and moral injury prevention have been largely omitted in LHS training. A competency related to burnout and moral injury reduction can potentially bring sustainable work lives for scholars and their colleagues, better incorporation of their science into clinical practice, and better outcomes for patients.

Unveiling climate distress: Examining the psychological impact of adverse weather events in India - A systematic review.
Int J Soc Psychiatry
September 2025
Department of Psychiatry, King George's Medical University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India.
Background: Climate distress is a psychological reaction to adverse weather events and climate change. These events can increase people's vulnerability to develop psychiatric disorders like anxiety, depression, and PTSD particularly in disaster-prone regions like India.
Aim: To explore the relationship between climate distress and psychological impact with a particular emphasis on women, elderly, and other at risk populations who owing to their health vulnerabilities, lack of resources or social roles that make them dependent on others, experience stress in the face of climate change.
Social Buffering of Acute Early Life Stress Sex-Dependently Ameliorates Fear Incubation in Adulthood.

Social buffering may reduce the persistent impacts of acute early life stress (aELS) and, thus, has important implications for anxiety- and trauma-related disorders. First, we assessed whether aELS would induce maladaptive fear incubation in adult mice, a PTSD-like phenotype. Overall, animals showed incubation of fear memory in adulthood, independent of aELS condition.

The emergence of large language models such as ChatGPT is already influencing health care delivery, research and training for the next cohort of health care professionals. In a consumer-driven market, their capabilities to generate new forms of knowing and doing for experts and novices present both promises and threats to the livelihood of patients. This article explores burdens imposed by the use of generative artificial intelligence tools in reflective essays submitted by a fifth of first-year health sciences students.

Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Facultad De Ciencias, Departamento de Biología, Biología de Plantas y Sistemas Productivos, Bogotá, Colombia.
Introduction: The study explores shared genetic architecture among major psychiatric disorders-major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and post-traumatic stress disorder-emphasizing their overlapping molecular pathways. Using public datasets, we identified shared genes and examined their functional implications through protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA).
Methods: Genes associated with each disorder were identified through the NCBI Gene database.
Improving Outcomes for Traumatised Health and Social Care Staff Through the Implementation of a Trauma Pathway Within an NHS Staff Support Service: A Case Study.
J Eval Clin Pract
September 2025
The Employee Psychology Service, Tees Esk and Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust, Darlington, UK.
Rationale: Health and care professionals experience Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) at higher rates than the general population with occupational trauma being as prevalent as is personal trauma.
Aims And Objectives: The aim of this case study was to demonstrate the trauma-informed model of care implemented as part of the trauma pathway within the Humber and North Yorkshire (HNY) Resilience Hub.
Method: We use a case study methodology to illustrate how the pathway supported a member of healthcare staff who struggled with symptoms of PTSD due to personal trauma and was unable to access support via other mental health services.
