Article Abstract
Objective: This study explores attitudes and expectations of psychotherapists (PT) towards the introduction of digital patient access to clinical notes ("Open Notes"; ON)), including the advantages and disadvantages in psychotherapeutic practice.
Methods: As part of the PEPPPSY study, an online survey was conducted. Free text responses (n = 107) were qualitatively analysed using thematic analysis.
Results: 129 psychological and medical PT took part in the survey. PT saw advantages such as transparency and patient-centred documentation, but feared disadvantages for the therapeutic relationship and an increased workload through the implementation of ON. Concerns were raised about data security and negative effects on treatment. Recommendations for implementation include patient-specific access adaptations and guided access.
Conclusion: PT are ambivalent about ON. Further research and guidelines for the use of ON in psychotherapy are needed.

Work-related stress and burnout: Is epigenetic aging the missing link?
Clin Epigenetics
September 2025
Department of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Philipps University Marburg, Marburg, Germany.
Background: Work-related stress is a well-established contributor to mental health decline, particularly in the context of burnout, a state of prolonged exhaustion. Epigenetic clocks, which estimate biological age based on DNA methylation (DNAm) patterns, have been proposed as potential biomarkers of chronic stress and its impact on biological aging and health. However, their role in mediating the relationship between work-related stress, physiological stress markers, and burnout remains unclear.

German Center for Vertigo and Balance Disorders, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat (LMU), University Hospital Grosshadern, Munich, Germany.
Background: Survivors of critical illness frequently face physical, cognitive and psychological impairments after intensive care. Sensorimotor impairments potentially have a negative impact on participation. However, comprehensive understanding of sensorimotor recovery and participation in survivors of critical illness is limited.

BMC Infect Dis
September 2025
Department Health and Prevention, Institute of Psychology, University of Greifswald, Robert-Blum-Str. 13, Greifswald, 17489, Germany.
Background: Healthcare workers (HCWs) played a crucial role in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to increased workloads, they were confronted with stigmatization due to their work in the health sector.
Methods: Guided by the Health Stigma and Discrimination Framework (HSDF), this study aimed to explore the experiences of stigmatization of HCWs in Germany using semi-structured interviews (N = 34) and investigate effective coping strategies and existing needs in this context.
Depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress disorder and perceived psychosocial care during hospital stay after myocardial infarction: a cross-sectional study.
BMC Cardiovasc Disord
September 2025
Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin, corporate member of Freie Universität Berlin and Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Institute of Medical Sociology and Rehabilitation Science, Charitéplatz 1, 10117, Berlin, Germany.
Background: Myocardial infarctions (MI) significantly contribute to the global disease burden and are often followed by psychological conditions such as depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). These are frequently underrecognized and insufficiently addressed in clinical care. This study aims to investigate the psychosocial impact of MI, identify risk factors for psychological burden following an MI, and gain insight into the perceived psychological care during hospitalization.

Mol Psychiatry
September 2025
Center for Depression, Anxiety and Stress Research, McLean Hospital, Belmont, MA, USA.
Dysregulated dopaminergic signaling has been implicated in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD) and childhood sexual abuse (CSA), but inconsistencies abound. In a multimodal PET-functional MRI study, harnessing the highly selective tracer [C]altropane, we investigated dopamine transporter availability (DAT) and resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) within reward-related regions among 112 unmedicated individuals (MDD: n = 37, MDD/CSA: n = 18; CSA no MDD: n = 14; controls: n = 43). Striatal DAT and seed-based rsFC were assessed in the dorsal and ventral striatum and the ventral tegmental area.
