Purpose: This study aims to summarize and analyze the existing research on anxiety and depression within the field of assisted reproduction technology, exploring current hotspots, emerging frontiers, and trends, while offering insights for future research directions.
Methods: Relevant literature on anxiety and depression among assisted reproduction patients was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection up to December 31, 2023. The analysis, encompassing studies, countries, authors, institutions, keywords, and co-citation networks, was visualized using VOSviewer version 1.6.19 and the "bibliometrix" R package version 4.3.1.
Results: A total of 1458 studies were included in the analysis. The literature on anxiety and depression in assisted reproduction patients has shown a fluctuating upward trend. Human Reproduction was identified as the leading journal, with the highest citations across multiple journals. Boivin J emerged as the most prolific author, with Cardiff University contributing the most publications. The USA and China led in terms of both publications and citations. Highly cited studies were predominantly published between 1995 and 2007, with half of the included studies published before 2000. Key research hotspots included evidence synthesis, acupuncture treatment for infertility, and the mental health of patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology, particularly focusing on anxiety and depression.
Conclusion: As awareness of psychological health in assisted reproductive technology continues to grow, future research should focus on mitigating anxiety and depression to enhance patient outcomes and patient quality of life. Integrating psychological support and monitoring long-term psychological outcomes are crucial for optimizing assisted reproductive technology success and fostering holistic, patient-centered care.

Youth anxiety and depression are rising rapidly worldwide, highlighting the need for efficient school-based assessment tools across sociocultural contexts. The Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale (RCADS) is one of the most widely used screening measures, with demonstrated cross-cultural applicability. However, its psychometric properties have rarely been evaluated in Chinese populations.

Objective: Although traditionally associated with mild head trauma, post-concussive symptoms are commonly reported across both healthy and other clinical populations. Existing research indicates that individuals with depression report high levels of post-concussive symptoms, though the underlying causes of this association remain unknown. The current study aimed to explore potential factors underlying this relationship: specifically, how maladaptive and adaptive self-focused cognitive coping styles, namely, rumination and reflection, respectively, differentially contribute to post-concussive symptoms.

Purpose: A network analysis model was used to investigate the network structure linking food intake and mental health among middle school students in Shandong Province from a specific symptom perspective.
Methods: A total of 6179 middle school students aged 11-18 years in Shandong Province were included in the study. The modified Chinese Diet Quality Questionnaire (DQQ) and Symptom Check List 90 (SCL-90) were used to estimate the status of food intake and mental health, respectively.

Purpose: The diagnosis of post-acute SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC) is broad, referring to new or persistent health problems >four weeks after being infected with SARSCoV-2. The aim of this study was to determine whether cytokines, chemokines or catecholamine levels could specify the clinical condition.
Patients And Methods: Seventy-nine participants participated in person to study PASC.
